So... I went to Japan and it was brilliant. Spring time so lots of sakura - had perfect timing everywhere we visited. Arrived at the perfect time in both Tokyo and Kyoto. Ohh I bought a kimono as well!! Second hand, so it was very cheap (Japanese women don't buy second hand kimono's to wear properly because basically you never wash them - washing them means unstiching the whole thing washing the pieces of material separately and then putting it back together). It's dark blue with a simple gold/coral/cream geometric pattern on it. I also bought an obi to wear with it. When I get home I'll try it on and get my dad to take some pictures.

Last weekend I visited Reading for my friend Andy's 21st. Couldn't make it home for his surprise party on the Sunday as I had gig tickets (Breed 77) - but at least I made it to one of the parties. Had a good time, caught up with Fia and Heather too. It was nice to see some people as I'd not seen anyone from home since Christmas.

Got exams coming up - need to revise lots but currently have no motivation. And the final of the French Open is the day before my hardest exam (except for the OSCE). That's not good. At least my OSCE isn't the first day this year, so I have a slightly better chance of actually passing. Doesn't mean I will but I'd like to not have resits this year *touch wood*
