…and bought a new lens. I missed zoom so much. It was a significant chunk of money, in fact, nearly as much as the body and the kit lens together. It’s an investment. But that’s the last time I’m spending any money on my SLR for a year at least. I stopped Flickring a while ago and I don’t plan to publish any of my photos any time soon, not that I prolifically take them, but I don’t wish to share any recent pieces of “creativity” with the world.

I’ve also finally added a “content” page of old essays (currently consisting of two; I need to source my handwritten ones that got me full marks…) and the about page; which actually got updated a while ago, and I’ll probably update it yet again soon.

Life is finally getting a bit more interesting; spending more of my free time in the centre with good friends instead of buried in a pile of books. That being said, I plan to do a post consisting of the books I’ve been reading/studying, for knowledge is good. I like knowledge. I’m more positive, optimistic and confident than I have been for the last few months. Finally got two As in Economics essays, I’ve been getting B’s since the start and it’s the only subject I need an A in this year to get me into university. So it gets the majority of my time. Oh and LSE still aren’t talking to me, but I’ve pretty much settled I will be just as happy going to York, or any other of my choices. Except Exeter, they don’t deserve me.

Well hello again! Joanna Kiyoné got redesigned…again. It’s not as dark anymore, which I’m hoping will mean I won’t feel the need to stop blogging due to hating the colour scheme.

And blogs will be shorter, more frequent, and hopefully a bit easier to read. Still tweaking the CSS and the sidebar here and there. I think this is more of a beta layout than anything!

The only real news from neck of the woods is the snow! I got two days off college which was nice, but I took an extra two days off before due to illness. I didn’t actually go out in the snow really, I was wrapped up all warm in my pyjamas sleeping until the middle of day! Have a lot of work to catch up and an overdue essay!
