A good day all round yesterday – finished off my second unit in English, I can now give Chaucer a rest for a few weeks and can start the units in Greek Art & Architecture and English Modern Prose :) I perfected my recipe for tuna pasta bake. Last night I added sweetcorn, mozzarella and baby toms to the concoction – it was scrummy!

I took a break from all the depressing literature choices I have made in the past few weeks….’Jude the Obscure’ is proving v harrowing and this months book group ‘Flowers for Algeron’ had me reaching for the tissues by the final chapter. So during my break on Sunday I nipped to the book shop and picked up the 3rd instalment of the No 1 Ladies Detective Agency – ‘Morality for Beautiful Girls’. It is proving to be a v absorbing read :)

I nearly forgot it has just started snowing…..

I finished ‘Brighton Rock’ @ the weekend – rather chilling and scary. Must read something more up lifting next….oh ‘Jude the Obscure’ is next on my list that will be a riot!!!!!! Also, in the middle of studying Oedipus The King..it’s a laugh a minute here at the moment.

On a happier note there is an intriguing new show starting this week ‘Wonderfalls’ – all about an underachieving philosophy graduate who works at a gift shop and the inanimate objects start talking to her….. The concept is a bit ‘Joan of Arcadia’ it will either be devilishly funny (like JoA) or die a tragic death like Jocasta :o
