I just want to apologise to everyone who reads my blog and looks for updates, i'm sorry that I haven't written a blog for absolutely ages.

To be honest March was such a manic month, what with trying to finish an 840 page book (which was amazing by the way) and writing an independent report on it (that took a while!) and becoming Small Group Co-ordinator, having copious amounts of meetings in one week (1-1 coffee's with people, committee meetings, small group meeting& small group leaders meeting) At the end of the month I had an exam and a 2,000 word essay on the same day, so I was revising for the exam and stuff, and I also had a 1,000 piece to hand in too. So my time spent in the library was purely for work purposes, and my free time went on seeing Craig, and my other friends(!) and also having Jonathan to stay for a week which was nice (all my housemates enjoyed him staying too, especially Dee :)

Right, thats my excuse for not writing. This term I have to write 6,000 words on Dickens and anything that I choose to write on basically about him (directed of course by lecturers!). Will be quite fun ;) - I hope! They call it a mini-dissertation, so I will hopefuly be ready for next years dissertation, which I will be focussing on C.S Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia, and Tolkien (looking at how they use Christianity in their writings-for they're both Chrisitans) and also how they differ. Basically it gives me a chance to look closely at the Narnian Chronicles, and at Lewis's life :)

The people that really know me know how much I love Narnia, so this dissertation is going to be quite fun (hopefuly!).
