Yeah, listening to BBC Radio One's Annie Mac's Mash Up, for those of you who don't know what it is, listen on Fridays, 9-11PM, UK time.

Seeing as my old journal is slightly out of date, i thought i'd update it!

Finished my first year of University the other week, i'm no longer a fresher, i miss that! After my first year i've achieved three First level grades which i'm pretty pleased with; i think i'll get even better next year... It seems... Inevitable!

And, WOW, i've started painting again (hah, that WOW was in time with the lyrics of the song!). Today i started and about half finished a painting of a lovely lady some perfume lovers might recognise; my aim for the summer is to paint as much as i can and get my work out there! Recently went to see my old art teacher and she is still annoyed with me for not taking Art at uni, but helpful nonetheless. She reviewed some of the work that i've done since i left school and discussed exhibitioning with me. Was lovely : )

Bought Sims 3 and PokéMon Platinum recently and they do not disappoint. Sims 3 has such amazing details and the whole expanded city is a great idea, makes having larger families more worthwhile in my opinion.
PokéMon Platinum was purchased for the main reason that is has a long life and an extended storyline/bonus features to its Diamond and Pearl predecessors (Diamond which i actually have). Gonna have lots of fun with this and then might get back into online play (am disappointed to find out Garchomp is on the uber list though, wrecks my team plan).
Been getting back into Age of Empires 3 again recently and cannot remember expert mode being so challenging, i've had to resort to cowering in the shallows of hard mode. When i get back on form i'll play that online again aswell : D

So, painting, gaming, oh and loads of reading to do. Will be a fun summer.
