04. the last few days

Over the last few days I've been out and about looking to see what would be ideal to take to uni. Last Friday I went into Birmingham with my boyfriend Rob and I although I didn't really buy anything much, mainly just some shoes from primark (it was too crowded for my liking), I did see not only clothes I like but I also got an idea of how much some of the things I'll need (not only stuff to use at uni like kitchenware but also stationery) will cost.

Saturday saw the return of Doctor Who to our screens, and although I've never been too keen on Matt Smith as the doctor (David Tennant has been my favourite!) I will admit he is growing on me. I had to watch it on Sunday as I'd been at my friend's 18th birthday party on the Saturday evening. I enjoyed that as it gave me a chance to catch up with some of my friends that I haven't seen in a while.

Yesterday I went to the cinema for the first time in ages to go and see Brave in 3D. Originally, although I wanted to see it, I didn't think I'd be able to persuade Rob to go, but luckily, it was advertised on kerrang and he thought it sounded good too. For those who don't know, it's about a Scottish princess who is supposed to marry the son of one of three clans, however, she doesn't want to and decides to take her fate into her own hands. It does have an unusual twist though, plus it was a change to hear Scottish accents instead of American ones!

Anyway, that's all for now,
