In no particular order:
1. Sitting in the sun with friends and food.
2. Dark pubs with real fires and folk music
3. Lines in songs that make me smile, or think, or make the whole room sing and laugh.
4. Being nice to people unexpectantly.
5. My mum cleaning the fridge in our new house.
6. Walking on a warm evening.
7. Playing with friends children.
8. Planning fun stuff in our new house.
9. Cooking elaborate meals.
10. Playing in the park in the middle of the night.
Well, I’ve now officially finished uni and have been trying to get a job without much success. But things are good.
I’ve applied for a PGCE in York, to teach religious studies at secondary level. I’m moving into a new house, have painted my room and am in the process of getting enough bookcases to hold all my books. We’ve got a garden full of vegetables, and some strawberries and a couple of raspberry plants, along with tomatoes, courgette, beans, peas and various other things. Oh, and peppers on the kitchen windowsill.
I’m still living with the same people, but we’ve moved out of the student area to near a large park, about 30 mins walk from the city center. It should be good.
