SO, that pesky 2011 is almost upon us. I do believe I am ahead with uni work, so no need to blart on about that. I feel really priviledged to have the opportunity to do my MA, so no more being ungrateful. Promise. Maybe.

I think my big "NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION" is to be more compassionate. I'm upping my stance on being a vegetarian (much to the horror of all my meat-eating chums I am sure). It is something I have felt increasingly passionate about in past months and I need to start doing more. More I put, nice, big, warm fuzzy feeling you get out, yes?

I'm really rubbish at making resolutions. They are never original. I mean, I'm never going to learn Mandarin Chinese or clean my car on the regs, so what's the point in saying I will? I wish I was better at not lying to myself. Perhaps that will be my half-hearted attempt at a resolution.

I think my other thing I want to do in 2011 (almost typed 2091 then and that's a long way in the future so I suppose I might have learnt Mandarin by then) is SEE MY LOVELY FRIENDS MORE. Big month coming up with graduation and starting a new job AND knuckling down to more work, so I think friends are going to be more important than they have ever been. (They have always been a priority after all). Looking forward to graduation immensely. good and bad faces will surely appear, then hilarity will ensue. Hopefully people will visit me too. GOOD to have balance. Atlthough the hospitality of Stoke will just about stretch to an oatcake and numerous plays of Robbie Williams' greatest hits. "Pride of the Potteries", etc.

Anyway, adieu.
