B. At the end, you have to choose and tag 8 people.

I was tagged by slartibartfast ...

1) I'm doing a Masters degree in theatre

2) My Dad calls me Boofie. No idea why.

3) I play the guitar, flute and piano though have never had lessons on any of them. I'm o.k, but definitely nothing special!

4) I am completely addicted to Strictly Come Dancing (and am utterly relieved that John Sargeant is gone!)

5) I've been single over five years. I'm not overly bothered about it.

6) My middle name is Margaret. I used to hate it because it was old fashioned, but now I quite like it.

7) I'm a huge sci-fi geek; Star Trek, Stargate, Star Wars, Dr Who, Torchwood, Firefly... You get the picture!

8) I'm phobic of sticky things, spiders and fire.

O.k - I tag: bobbys_girl1</lj> , crick_elf  spritely_moon</lj> bobbys_girl1  jenicomprispas missharker vicki_c linuial  shiny_sly  and spritely_moon 

Ed: This is my second attempt to get the flipping lj users to post - they just didn't show up when I did it a second ago...

Was feeling much better this morning so I cycled into uni to get a few final registration type things done. I was filling in my form to register for the doctor on campus and it asked about the MMR shot and when we'd had it. I rang Mum, checked, and put 1989. When I handed my form in to the nurse it was all fine till she got to that bit:

Nurse: "Oh my! You haven't had an MMR booster?! Are you sure? You really should have had one you know." 
Me: Um... well I haven't. Sorry...
Nurse: *fills out form* Go straight round to the health centre and give this to the nurse practitioner *folds form*
Me: *panics slightly* O.K

I did as I was told and the nurse practitioner looked all shocked as well. She then proceeded to give me a jab. I may never have had such a painful injection, and this includes my BCG and blood testy things and all kinds of shots for holidays. Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow! 

What worries me slightly is that nobody's told me up until now that I should have had a booster. When should I have had it? Does anyone know?

Oh well, at least I won't get measles, mumps or rubella....

Today I feel icky. My glands are up and my throat hurts and I ache. This is not too bad in and of itself, I don't feel terribly ill or anything just icky. It does however mean I'm really struggling to concentrate on my stupid nine hundred page biography of Albert Speer. It's interesting reading, but I just can't seem to focus today. I've decided to have a break (hence the lj post) and try again in a bit.

I also have this nagging feeling that I should be doing something else, though I've triple checked my diary and I can't think of anything. I'm wondering whther it's just because this is the first day I haven't had something specific to go out for. I don't know. Urgh, I can't think! I really would like to just go back to bed and not have to think for a bit...

Hello!

It's been a while since I updated, largely because I've been on my hols with no net access. I spent time with Granny, moved most of my stuff up there, spent some time with Rach & Dave, then went to Whitby Folk Week. By myself. This probably doesn't sound like a big deal to some people, but it's a really big step forward for me; this time last year I probably wouldn't go to Dorchester by myself for the day. I feel like I'm finally getting back that self confidence - it's not all there yet, not by a long shot, but I think just the fact that I spent a week in a hotel away from home on my own shows that I'm on the mend. Folk Week was weird, but awesome btw. My room was up in the roof of this cliffside building, which meant I had a fantastic view. There was, sadly, no lift, which meant I had to climb eight flights of stairs to get to it. I think the view was worth it though!

I still don't know where I'll be lving next year, the university don't sort postgrad accommodation until September (which is insane) but at least most of my stuff is now in Yorkshire :-)

We're doing a cabaret at the end of next week at dancing, and it's strange to think that it's my last dance performance. I think I will be a wreck come Saturday night!

Rachel and Dave are coming down (with Elliot) for a week and they'll be here for the cabaret and for my goodbye meal (which I've yet to organise...) thn we're going back up to Yorkshire on Sunday. I probably won't have much net access up there though unless I go into York and an internet cafe.

I may pic spam later with holiday pics...


Only Men Aloud just won Last Choir Standing, which pleases me immensely. Can anyone else see Ianto singing with them? No? Just me then...
