Sorry about the lack of posting yesterday....don't panic i have not died a bean death.

Had the most hectic day ever yesterday, and due to the involvement of an essay amidst the hecticness, it has unfortunetly carried on this morning! Was really tired yesterday, and although i didn't feel that hungry, i felt really drained. Walked to uni in the morning after my first dose of beans (feels like a horrible medicene i have to take in the morning now, definetly tastes like it, except seemingly makes me feel more ill...) as had a meeting with my dissertation tutor, and felt as if i was sleep walking into uni like some kind of weird beaned out zombie. So, walked back, put on some rice, and embarked on an afternoon of essay writing (except it was really an afternoon of uninspired tea brewing, screen staring and facebook procrastination). Felt pretty ill all day, and not ready or patient enough to face the battle of me vs the can opener vs the can, nibbled on green beans to keep my energy topped up.

And after a day of being ridiculously bone idle, i had to scuttle back into uni for my shift at the Guild at 7pm, which was 5 hours in which my stomach growled, begging for the (just about) out of date sanwhiches which are normally up for grabs at the end of a shift. But alas, while my co-worker picked up his free and easy cheese and tomato sandwhich (what i had been dreaming of only yesterday), i gritted my teeth and sipped on my tea.

And after, frankly, a day of all round grump, the bus back from work was seething with temptation, as my stomch growled, and the chip shops passed, i felt a couple of pounds in my pocket and thought of the heaven that would be a sneaky pack of chips....the worst temptress being 'Friends' the kebab shop (which, in my opinion, is probably the best in the universe) that lies just at the top of my road. The smell of chips was alluring, and a mixture or hunger, rain and tiredness definetly provided the perfect conditions for me to be tempted, however, i mustered the will power of a monk and hurried past, realising 'Friends' was not a friend, and in fact an enemy.

Once home, I was greeted instead to the remanants of a pack of green beans in my fridge.

So, just thought id post this quickly up, will post some more perhaps later after ive turned into super woman and ive read my Tolkien for the day, get together some notes for todays class, attended my 2 hour tutorial, walked my 4 miles to and back from uni, plan next week's meeting for Oxfam society, restock my beans.........

Ciao for now.
