Again, I know my blogging is somewhat sparce. I just have so many things I want to do here (reworking the whole site to be honest), and many more things I’m supposed to be doing instead - such is life! Realisticly, I can’t see me having the time until spring comes around.

In the mean time, I thought I’d share (belatedly) a little of the fun had over here in the UK when we received one of the best snowfalls since…well, a while! Whilst terribly ’snowed in’, I managed to use my artistic skills (aka shoe obsession) to come up with this:

I have to say that on completing this, despite wearing gloves, my hands were completely numb!

Unfortunately the snowy conditions also meant everything came to a halt: Having claimed that “this school will not close“, everyone was much amused when on one day only eleven day girls turned up meaning they promtly shut the school the following day! Our play performance was postponed (although this wan’t too bad as all the plays are dreadfully under prepared) until a week on Monday. The choir concert (Fauré’s Requiem) was postoned until the summer - also not too bad as it’ll be much better then.

Right now I’ve just finished a massive (for me) order from Amazon - very exciting! A new singing book, my own copy of Romeo and Juliet (GCSE exam text) so that I can annotate the whole thing, some Penguin Classics and Jason Mraz’s new album. I’ve also ordered the complete collection of Katherine Mansfield’s short stories as, having read a couple in English, I really enjoyed them, which surprised me as I’m not normally a short story person at all! Now I’ll just be sat watching the front door every morning…
