Sixty One: Day trips.

"The smallest bookstore still contains more ideas of worth than have been presented in the entire history of television."
Andrew Ross

These are the books I have to read and haven't:
-The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger
-The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera
-Breathe by Anne-Sophie Brasme
-If nobody speaks of remarkable things by Jon Mcgregor (despite having this since my birthday...)
-How to be lost by Amanda Eyre Ward
-Rules for saying goodbye by Katherine Taylor
-Bloodtide by Melvin Burgess
-The Memory Box by Margaret Foster
-The Piano by Jane Campion and Kate Pullinger.

These have mainly been accumulated from the various trips I've been on- to Weymouth last Sunday where I found a brilliant second hand bookshop that I could have quite happily spent all day in- and to Dorchester on Wednesday where there were lots of charity shops.

Weymouth was nice. I don't know if you can see in this picture there are sand sculptures of the characters of Alice in Wonderland:

Here is a picture of the beach:


We then went to the Water Gardens, which were pretty:


Apologies for the picture spamming. Although these were cute and fluffy:


Clearly it's only me that thinks so.

I didn't take that many pictures in Dorchester because all we did was go shopping so instead you can have this picture of my Nana in a hat:


I don't know what it is but every time we go shopping I feel an urge to put things on my Nana's head and take pictures. Easily pleased.

University updates: got accommodation at Chichester. It's in Hammond, which means shared facilities and is catered. I have nothing else to say about this at the this moment in time- I was properly annoyed yesterday. It's less than three weeks to results. I am impatient. GIVE THEM TO ME NOW.

Off to film and edit videos and attempt to do something productive with my day.
