Feeling Sorry Susan

These past few weeks, 6 weeks to be exact, have been a complete write off. If you think your November was bad just take a look at mine.

No, it could have been worse. But I’ve basically been ill for 6 weeks, to and from the doctors and with many different types of antibiotics. So it is fair to say all I wanted to do was go home and be fussed by my family. (Which I eventually did and that got me feeling a lot better)

Its funny how much of a cure going home really is. I think maybe because when you’re away from home (and not getting better) you immediately think the worst and getting stressed about being ill on top of uni stress wasn’t making me any better. But once I went home and got a full check up from the doctors I started to feel more like myself again.

Feeling sorry for myself is something I’m not really a fan of doing (all the time) but with it going on for so long, I think I deserved that feeling sorry state.

Now back to Sheffield

Update Number Two

After a very busy few weeks it was hard to fit everything exciting I did into one blog post. SO update number two…

My unlucky few weeks didn’t stop at having a blood infection. I somehow, very stupidly, fell over in Corp (wasn’t even drunk) and cut my elbow open, which resulted in having to visit first aid and have it stuck back together. (Still sorry about that Amie and Sam.)

So, due to my unluckiness, it’s safe to say that when I visited Go Ape I was convinced I would hurt myself. Apparently, one in a thousand people need first aid whilst there and I was prepared to be that one. Obviously and thankfully nobody was hurt and in the end I was very happy I did it. Although that doesn’t mean I want to do it again due to the scariness involved.

That same day I went to see Fall Out Boy at the SSE arena in London. Although, that is for another post.

I have just found out that there are hours available at the cafe at Christmas, so prepare for the stories of waitressing to make a reappearance.

I need to get back into the swing of writing my blog again. Having not updated it in well over a month I thought I would write a quick catch up entry for all my millions of followers. (Hi Dad)

Truth is, I have been pretty busy between going on holiday, moving back to uni and of course, napping.

Ireland was a blast. I couldn’t think of a better way to spend my 20th birthday than to be drinking Guinness and perfecting my Irish dancing. Also, I am now a professional pourer of Guinness. Even got a certificate to prove it.

As expected the annual summer party with my family as hosts was amazing. You can’t really complain about partying with your family and all your closest friends. (Apart from two of them, they were missed dearly)

Costa Brava was equally as good. You can’t beat hot weather, nice food and the beach. As you can tell I am a hot weather kinda gal, mainly because I tan easily and everyone looks better with a healthy glow.

I was excited to move back to uni to see all my friends and revisit Corp (dur, thats the main reason I was excited.) Although, getting ill at the start of Freshers Week (thanks to the Spanish bugs who bit me and infected my blood) was not on the original agenda and resulted in me not being able to drink. So going out completely sober was urm… interesting.

Now I’ve been back for a month now and it feels like I never left. I’m back into my routine of napping and Netflix, (not Netflix and Chill). Is there any other way to spend your uni life?
