I need to tell you about this awesome film I watched over the weekend. Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2. You don't have to have seen the first one to enjoy it, in fact, there is a brief recap at the beginning of the second one that fills you in on what you have missed. Basically, this film is about "Foodimals"; giant food animals, and puns. So many cheesey puns. I LOVED IT. The hero of the story, Flint Lockwood, is a nerdy inventor who is basically trying to save the world from giant food items, and it's funny. Really funny. I saw The Lego Movie this weekend as well. Also funny. I recommend it. Just to clarify, I don't just watch animated children's films. I like Marvel Comic book films and I love Lord of the Rings. I am really boosting my street cred here aren't I...

You are probably sick and tired of hearing me complain about how busy I am at uni. Tough tatties. It's my final year and I will cry if I want to. It will all be over in a matter of months don't worry. I will be handing in my last every piece of coursework on Friday.

Your tastebuds sure don't. I had a hard day at placement. Most people assume Speech and Language therapy is all about stutters/stammers. I will have you know that that is just a teeny weeny specialist area of the profession. My placement is at a Neurological Rehab Centre, and I work with a range of patients from those with Traumatic Brain Injuries to Stroke patients to those with degenerative diseases such as MS and MND. It's tough but really very interesting.

GUYS I had the day off uni and I wasn't even expecting it! GUYS, I entered Lurpak's #bakeclub competition. The prize is Joseph Joseph kitchen stuff. GUYS, I LOVE Joseph Joseph stuff. You may have guessed that I spent my day off baking. It was a glorious day. The rain poured outside, I poured chocolate inside. My housemate, Rhona, had the day off too so she played the roll of photography assistant. Rhona and I became friends at uni as we were doing the same course. We bonded over food. Obviously. We spent most of our second year going out for breakfasts around London. It was the best. In fact, I am waiting for Rhona to get home from the gym now, hoping she will cave and decide to go to Pizza Express with me for dinner. I have a voucher and everything.
