Dance Off
It's official. I am now ill.
I'm not entirely sure who to blame, but it certainly isn't my fault. All I know is, I feel horrible. And I'm not happy :(
On Friday we went to Sheffield (yay trams) to watch and help out with one of the Light Night events called High Voltage. I will post some photos and will explain more about it when we get the photos back from the developy people.
Anyway, we've been taking Phil about and introducing him to some of the sights around Bretton (although not the ghost dogs and floating nightdress down by the well - i refuse to go on the ghost hunts). Sunday was the last day of a festival thing that was happening at Bretton, and as Michelle was entering the Dance Off competition for her last year, we tagged along to support her. So, more photos:
This is Michelle in front of the stage at the Dance Off in her rather snazzy costume.
This is our motley crew (plus Phil), again in front of the stage - though it was only taken here because it was the only part of the whole of the Performance Centre (where the competition was taking place) that there was any light.
I'm not sure whether this will be particularly clear, because it comes up well on my monitor at home but not here in the library, but this is a picture of Michelle and some other contestants dancing and warming up before everyone else turned up. Unfortunately, I forgot to take any pictures during the actual dance off... because everything happened so quickly :(
Michelle didn't win the dance off because there were a large group of friends in the audience who were cheering on one of the other contestants, and as it was all measured on how much cheering each competitor got, we didn't stand much of a chance. But we thought she did well anyway :)
In smoking news, a petition has been written and signed by several people to make the main communal area (the lounge) a smoke-free environment. Obviously, we're not too popular anymore, but never mind. There is also a meeting tonight with the LUU officer about this that someone else has organised, so hopefully we'll be able to come to some sort of agreement over a solution, because this situation is really starting to get to me.
ALSO... someone decided to steal some of my cutlery: a fork out of my washing up bowl. A dirty fork. I really don't understand these people. Luckily, I found the knife (still dirty) with some other stuff in the kitchen, and resisted the temptation to bleach it. Eugh...
In internet news, the BT man cometh on Thursday, so I will have a phone line then (hopefully) and can then work on obtaining an internet connection. YAY!
One last thing before I go:
Hehe.
