I really do wish I didn’t have so much work to do. It’s actually beginning to kill me very very slowly. And the worst part is I just know I’m not going to get very good grades this year - which puts me off doing it even more! On the slight upside - I picked my two optional modules for next year the other day - I chose Creative Writing (how fun!) and Teaching English as a Foreign Language. Hopefully I’ll do better in those…
In online news I’ve pretty much done nothing of viewing value. I’ve installed a couple of wordpresses for people - and wrote a tutorial - and I’ve started working on re-doing my sites, giving them a bit of extra love. We all know they deserve it!

I wanted to make a post to say a heartfelt goodbye to a friend who sadly passed away at the weekend. He was a member of my canoe club and was dearly loved by everyone there. If you’d like to read a bit more - our local paper wrote a story about what happened here.

Roger, you will be so sadly missed by everyone who knew you. I will always remember the way you made me laugh with your silly jokes and stories. Please keep his friends and family in your thoughts over the next few weeks.

So I haven’t updated in a while - I haven’t had much to talk about if I’m totally honest. Last night I went to see Simple Plan with my friend. The last time we saw them we were lucky enough to meet them. I’m not usually big on bands and gigs, but these guys are all so genuinely lovely and nice that it’s difficult to get bored of them.
Aside from that miniscule amount of fun I’m pretty much just tied down with Uni work - I have alot of assignments to do and I’m trying hard to be motivated about it. I’m going to spring clean out my roon today (it’s a mess and I haven’t tidied it in forever) and then I’m going to hopefully spurt out two assignments. Wish me luck.
In other news; Sara Amelia and I are working on a new website project which I’m pretty excited about - so keep your eyes open for that

Welcome back to shycircus.org - now fully transformed into the public blog of a crazy 19 year old from England. If you know me, you’ll know this site has been everything from a blank page to a fully fledged site, but here it is - in the form I always wanted it to be. So get used to it.
The header features a still from, quite possibly, my new favourite film; “The Other Boleyn Girl”. If you haven’t yet seen it, I suggest you do. Scarlett Johansson and Natalie Portman are simply outstanding, and it’s just generally a really good watch. I could talk about it for hours, but I won’t.
If you want to know who the hell I am, why don’t you just check out the about page instead?
