You'll always have those days where it's hard to tell by the time you go to bed if it's been a successful one. Despite all that has happened today, I'm still undecided.
I managed my third morning workout - good.
The recording of both seminars for my friend Alicia went pretty well - also good.
I made some tasty Quorn chicken, chickpea, yellow pepper and spinach curry - a yummy good.
Went on a ghost tour round the quieter, more cultural parts of Plymouth with said friend - a chilly but spooky good
Yet my mind has been inexplicably busy so I couldn't contribute in class like I normally do. I've managed to pin down the best points of insincerity in Pamela as of today (which is another good) but I think until I have a decent hold on my final three essays, I won't be happy.
Perhaps even more so, I need to be back with my loving boyfriend - to remind myself of what it is I am fighting for down here.
Oh by the way, I forgot to mention yesterday, the laughs I had with Alicia in the Costa. White chocolate will now be called 'half-chocolate' as it only uses half the cocoa product (the cocoa butter not the solids).
But on the subject of the ghost tour, it was pretty insightful. There is a young girl said to haunt the Elizabethan House (like the little girl in our Blitz blog story back in October), a little old lady in the Tudor Rose Tea Rooms, a girl called Emily in the Reel Cinema, a French graveyard under the Athenaeum, a gallows by the lamppost on the Barbican, and strange smells in various places. Oh and a a pregnant woman in the ladies toilets of the Gin Distillery. I wasn't really affected by anything we might have felt except for a feeling of unease around the lamppost. We wound up at the Hoe where the ghost of Sir Francis Drake himself is said to wander, accompanied by his drum. Eerie....
Ok, enough ghost stories for one night. It is time I was going. Got a Korn tribute band gig tomorrow evening and a night at Envy with Joanne (to try and fix the memory I had a week ago - and not drink haha I am intent on staying sober)
