Really Feeling Alive

I haven't done anything remotely 20s in ages. Yes, I've sat in my room and listened to my 20s records, but I haven't actually been to a 20s night and been absorbed in the atmosphere along with other like minded people for quite some time.

Last night however I finally got the chance to let my inner flapper out, at the Candlelight Club English Country Garden night!

We had such a ball! Having not done it in ages, I danced the Charleston even more energetically than usual (which I'm paying for today, God I ache!). The whole room, and my ears, were filled with the sound of jazz! I can honestly say i felt sooo alive in a while, my tennis dress swishing about my thighs and my glass beads flying!

We danced all night, and despite the fact the room was stifling, so we looked rather flushed, i think we looked amazing! Will post pictures as soon as I have them...Jennie and I give you permission to be aroused! Haha ;)

The last little stretch

Bored of revision, a blog seemed like a good use of my procrastination time!
Final exam tomorrow which is VERY exciting! Can't wait for it to all be over so I can go out and enjoy the final month or so of uni. But thinking about uni coming to an end has made me feel all melancholy and nostalgic...probably not helped by the fact that I'm listening to Billie Holiday!

It's so crazy to think that the people I've have seen pretty much everyday for three years aren't going to be around. It's going to feel so strange that these people aren't going to be in a minutes walk, and there won't always be someone around to go to the pub with!

Uni has just been sooooo amazing!!! I have so many great experiences and I only have to look at my Facebook pics to remember all the fun times I've had.

Of course there have been downs too, like exam stress and heart break, but as rubbish as those bits are, I suppose they help to make you the person you are...uni is a character builder as they say!

But as sad as I am that soon it's all going to be over, I can't help being excited about where life will take me now!
