Returning Down South

I came back home for the holidays yesterday. However, even though I am unbelievably excited for Christmas, I think that I am already even more excited about going back.
I never thought I would say that, but yeah.
I have had such a good time over the the last few days that it really made me realise how much fun I am having at Uni this year, and I can't believe that its my last year!
Tuesday night was the best night out I think I have ever had. It was the night the guys finished their exams and therefore it was bound to bee a good'n.
I managed to put my organisational obsession into good use by making sure that all my friends were going to Itchy Feet that night, even though we were all going to different places to pre-drink. Everyone ended up in the same place, and it was EPIC.
Itchy Feet is a great night out anyway, and if you have one in your town, GO. It plays a mixture of soul, swing, rhythm & blues, funk, rock & roll and ska. The perfect combination of old and new. Check out the website for more info: http://www.itchyfeetonline.co.uk/. But having everyone there, and people I knew that I didn't know where going to be there, made is awesome.
Me and the Girlies
Wednesday was a recovery day. Not that I drunk that much anyway, but the guys didn't get up till about 4pm.. H drank a bottle of rum to himself, so he was hanging to the max.

But now I am home in the sleepiest city in England.. and I feel so far away from all my friends..
We got the tree today, and I'm doing the ritual baking with Ma this weekend, which I have made puff pastry for (lookout of pictures). I definitely have the Christmas spirit, but its being somewhat overshadowed by my longing to be back with my friends.
It is also reaffirming the fact that even though I could be living rent free from the summer until I go travelling, I think that I will make the financial sacrifice so that I can keep my social life!

For now, I must focus on the Christmas feeling and seeing friends (fitting in uni work, revision and waitressing when I can)! I still need to get some Christmas presents.. although I am fast running out of ideas/monies. Any suggestions?!
