Merry Christinamas!

Hey All!

Just a quick post to say I hope you all had a fab christmas and to wish you all a good new year! England is 'frosted' at the moment as opposed to snowing... and I'm wasting my time being a bum for a while, not working and not doing any uni work or revision... I guess I'll pay for it later! But hey, we all need a break eh!

Have a good holiday everyone! Love Chips x

Toreet?

Hey All!

How is everyone? Uni is great I'm loving it! (Except for the fact that we've had 7 fire alarms since the beginning of term and a blackout last night!). I thought maybe it would all calm down after Freshers Week but, much to my delight, it hasn't. Which is great.

So... erm... what else. Tania may be coming up to Shef to see me soon, which is fab - I'm well excited! And Amber is coming over soon which is great! It's silly really - I live 40 mins away by train from CB and yet we still haven't found time to meet up (NB CB - I get my rail card soon so I'll be on my way before long!).

OOH which reminds me. I'm gonna be a bridesmaid on New Years Eve! When I came back from the USA I found out that my grandad - a long time smoker - had been diagnosed with lung cancer :( Subsequently, my auntie has decided to bring her wedding forward so he can give her away, and the event is to take place on New Years Eve. That should be cool and he's really happy about it.

Umm... not much else gone on really. I got a letter from Luna the other day - yey! I love getting post :D

Tis all for now! Keep in touch, Chips x

Fresher's Week!

Hey Y'All!

Well, with Fresher's Week at uni over with, I think I can safely say uni life has gotten decidedly quieter this week! Last week was great though, I didn't sleep earlier than 2am every night, the girls in my halls are great, and it was basically non-stop parties all week. So cool.

Anyways, my first lectures were yesterday (but half of my total number of lectures are on Mondays), and my course doesn't seem so scary after all. Hell of a lot of reading though.

I have a copy of my staff page stuck on my wardrobe, and on of my hall-mates was reading it the other day saying 'Bloody Hell, you did a lot!', and I was just reminiscing about things at camp that made me smile...

So I hope all of yers weeks have been good. I'm off to look at Luna's photos now and mithering Brooke for a reference!

See yers!

The Good Old United Kingdom of Great Britain!

Hey Folks!

Well I'm home, I stayed up from 10am ET on Tuesday til 10.30pm GMT Wednesday (5.30pm ET) yesterday, so actually severely jet-lagged! I really enjoyed my travelling, have some crazy stories (most of which involve deer or piercings). Hope everyone who travelled too enjoyed their time!

I'm actually really relieved to be home, and proper nervous about going to uni next weekend! I'm not ready to leave home for the third time this year! I figured out on the plane with Skeeter that I've been on 16 flights this year. I'm ready to just sit in front of the telly with a cup of tea til Christmas but, alas, that cannot be.

Ok so I'm gonna leave it at that. Hope to here all your travel stories soon! Mine will be on my site at www.globetrotter-tina.blogspot.com as soon as I get around to posting them!

Miss Y'All! Chips xxx

Hey Y'All!

Hey! How is everyone!

I'm in Philadelphia at the moment, waiting for CB to turn up so we can go shopping! Off to NYC tomorrow before I fly home on Tuesday. Travelling has been fun but it kinda sucks being on your own, I've discovered. Anyway, I've loadsa stories to post when I have more time, loads to tell you guys!

Good luck to everyone going back to college or uni, and stay safe, especially those still travelling!

Miss you all, Chips xxx

Chips's Update from Denver, Colorado...

Hey Y'All! I hope everyone's travelling is going ok and everyone's safe, or else you're settled back into school or whatever!

Denver has been great - my uncle has the coolest and most giant house complete with hot tub, trampoline, air hockey and fuzzball tables, bar, my own room... oh it's just SO good to be pampered after camp! It's been great to catch up with family too, my brother was out here and he flew home today so it was good to see him along with my uncle, aunt and cousins.

Over the weekend I've been at a ranch in Wyoming; riding horses, eyeing up cowboys and playing on a rope swing! Today me and my cousin decided to get our noses pierced so we drove around all day trying to find a respectable place to do it! It feels really weird right now but I'm sure I'll get used to it!

Uhoh: None of my photos are digital, but I'm gonna see if I can still get them on CD at home so I'll send you some then if I can! I went to Denver Hard Rock today too and thought of you!

Pisces: Glad to hear you all arrived in Chicago okay, I hope you all enjoyed the ride!

'Tis all for now. Speak to you all soon!
