Purple Sky at Night

Friday 28th January 2011

Today's photo shows the sunset sky from my bedroom window. It was very purple and sort of eerie this evening.

Quote of the Day:

"A man can only lead when others accept him as their leader, and he only has as much authority as his subjects give to him. All the brilliant ideas in the world cannot save your kingdom if no one will listen to them."

- from Brandon Sanderson's "The Well of Ascension"

Well of Ascension

Thursday 27th January 2011

Managed training this evening, although I wasn't over happy. Have been lent the second book in Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn trilogy: "The Well of Ascension". Loving it already!

Quote of the Day:

"It's easy to believe in something when you win all the time... The losses are what define a man's faith."

Drag-Queen Bratwursts

Wednesday 26th January 2011

Walked to the local Aldi to pick up some German food for this evening - cooking around my friends house. We ended up making Bratwursts with beef and onion sauce, Frikadellen, green beans and Swiss Spatzie, with Baklava to finish. Very yummy, with lots of wine! Also watched "Priscilla: Queen of the Desert"! Love that movie.

Exam Scribing

Tuesday 25th January 2011

Had an exam to scribe for this afternoon down at the NOC. It went ok, with minimum amount of confusion! Went to yoga in the evening which was lovely to relax.

Bookshelf

Monday 24th January 2011

Today's photo shows my bookshelf. A motley collection of books, folders, notebooks, photo albums and other bits.

Didn't train tonight. Just sort of sulked at home (still not well - grrr at times I hate being a woman!)

Meercat

Sunday 23rd January 2011

Watched training this morning. It was at one of the local senior Senseis dojos and everyone enjoyed it! Went to the pub afterwards, via the petshop so I could pick up some chew sticks and treats for Mindy-hamster and then had a quiet afternoon at home.

Today's photo is Mindy doing her meetcat impression in her wheel!

Photo Memories

Saturday 22nd January 2011

Today's photo is off my wardrobe, that is covered in photos! Some are from my travels and some are from university. I love having pictures up around my room, so many good memories!

Had noodles for dinner tonight. Yum yum.
