Weekend festivities

Note to self: do not schedule a squash game on the same day that you plan to go dancing and more specifically don’t sprain your ankle! Yes, that’s right – I orchestrate a big night out and then injure myself to make it more of a challenge.

But…if you think that a sore foot was going to keep me from the big night out you are severely mistaken! Besides, after the first few drinks I hardly felt it anyway.

I thought I’d take a lot more photos than what I did eventually. The flash is fantastic, so far I love the new phone and all it’s little tricks. I would have taken more photos but it turns out that at least one person has to stand still to take a proper photo and that’s the person who is taking the photo. We had too much fun dancing and being hooligans, that’s my excuse – but here are a few that I stood still long enough to take.

 

On the bright side: the sprain did wonders for my studying, since it kind of inspired me to stay in one spot and spend some quality time with my books. It was absolute agony walking around, so I perfected this one and a half legged limp-jump-walk manouvre for when I needed coffee. At my own house this would not be a problem in general because I have a spare kettle set up right there where I need it. However, I did not get to spend much time in my perfect set-up because it’s my gran’s birthday. I wisely decided I’d get more studying done at Wanette’s house than in my own three-ring-circus. Although we did take a break to have lunch with the family at least. Here’s the birthday girl! My grandmother – 75 years today (and she still doesn’t colour her hair – oh please let me have some of those genes).
