So, I'm half way throuhg mum's Christmas present which looks good but is massive and I'm not sure will felt. Ah, she'll hate it whatever. I'm trying to do a second mini sock, mostly because I've done the first. I'm currently doing an SSU (Student Selected Unit) which essentially boils down to a 2000 word report written over three weeks.
So naturally I will spend about two weeks and six days trying to decide what to write it on. I've already changed my mind three times since Monday - one per day!
However this post isn't about that and it isn't about knitting, either. I'm killing some time in the computer room before going to meet up with some other (mature) students. We're going to watch an autopsy video. I'm, irresponsibly, more excited about communal wine drinking.
But it isn't about that either. While killing time, I decided to read the Sydney Morning Herald, and found this article about learning positive thinking, which anyone who knows me, knows isn't my speciality.
First project: Write down three positive things that happened today:
1. I found my young persons railcard! Woohoo! That saves £5 replacement cost. I also dwelt on the fact that I am still eligible for a YPC, in spite of my 27th birthday looming nine days away...
2. I got some personal emails. I felt a bit lonely and bored last night and was wildly procrastinating from working so started emailing very, very old friends and acquaintances. I'm not sure I didn't come across as a stalker. But it felt good. And I got replies. Yay!
3. I had a fantastic left-over curry sandwich for lunch. It had (stolen - sorry Lora) spinach leaves, tarka dahl and mushroom bahji and grated carrot on seedy bread. I do love my food. It's usually the highlight of my day, which is why it is important that it is good.

I think you might find point 3 had a hidden negative point in in. Rewrite it!
Ohhhh felting! Now, on the one side, an interesting new technique to learn. On the other, I never like the texture of felted things. Given that I'm not going to be there on the day, can you tell me what it is? Ah go on!
Autopsy video? Cool!
Yeah, I was aware of that but it's true and it was a good sandwiche. I'm working on today's points already....
Will be positing photos as soon as it's been revealed. (And finished!!!!)
What are they then?
