Space Hoppers are knackering

This weekend was fairly eventful. Dad took me shopping on saturday for travelling gear which he has kindly bought me for my birthday :) We got loads of stuff, and i have almost everything on my list now :) He also bought me 'Mean Girls' on DVD (not a brilliant film but one i like to watch with Psy so we can reminise about the 'good old days') and he bought the the complete season one of 'Bones' on DVD which is awesome!!! I have watched quite a few of them already :) I'm a bit concerned i may be fostering an addiction to that show...and no, its not because David Boreanaz is in it.....that just happens to be a plus :)
When i got home from shopping on saturday evening the space hoppers had arrived! :) We blew them up with these crappy little foot pumps so we were knackered before we'd even fully inflated them and then we took them out in the garden and raced them! It was great fun, but very very very tiring. I reckon half an hour on one of those things must be equivalent to half an hour in the gym! Observe below space hopper fun....

Most of yesterday was spent studying as i now have a very short time to finish the course projects. I have some background notes for my final project i just have to write it up into a coherent piece of writing! I'm going to be studying every opportunity i get for the next couple of weeks to get it all done on time so then i can go on holiday and completely relax in the knowledge that i have done everything :) We went walking last night despite the rain (gave me an opportunity to try out my new waterproof jacket) and i took my bergen with me. It wasn't too bad actually, the bag was quite comfortable and my stamina held out quite well, so i think i should be ok on the trip. I'm really looking forward too it, i cant wait to spend some much-needed quality time with my Naidel away from everyone and our every day lives :) T'will be bliss :)
