On a normal note...

Totally failed physics exam on Fri, but everyone thinks they have too so it's not so bad. How am I supposed to know that the people who search for alien radio waves are called SETI? *sigh* Nevermind, I'll have to just try harder on my last two exams - RE - Sikhism and Statistics, nyer.

Ditched the food/exercise and all that plan, actually forgot to get it from the printer, nevermind. Am eating healthier, feeling healthier, walking more, it's good :). Not really revising though, need to do a bit before the last two exams. Ooh, yes, I've now learnt to make spinach lasagne which is DELICIOUS, mmmmm... And also discovered a liking for cottage cheese which is healthy and very nice :).

Hmm... Since I like the spinach lasagne so much I think I'll write a recipe here so other people can know the lovelyness of it :).

My -very precise- recipe for Spinach lasagne

Ingredients:
8 blocks frozen spinach (they're frozen in lumps)
400g (ish) of cottage cheese
1 egg
grated cheese (however much you want)
lasagne sheets
Something other if you like, to make another layer, Carol (who taught me this recipe) likes adding tomatoey stuff (plumed tomatoes mixed with various stuff like bits of onion and herbs etc).

Method:
Preheat oven to about 200°C. Defrost spinach in a bowl. Put a thin-ish rough layer of spinach on the bottom of the dish you're using (use your fingers, easier than a fork or whatever). Mix cottage cheese, egg and about a handful of grated cheese in a bowl. Put a thin-ish layer of the cheesy mixture on top of the spinach. Lay a sheet of lasagne sheets on top of this (break to fit). Add another layer if y0u want one - a simple layer of sliced tomatoes or an oniony plumed tomato sort of saucy thing, whatever you like - I stick to the layer of sliced tomatoes. Layer various things (including lasagne sheets) until you fill the dish. Cover the top with cheese (can be on top of a lasagne sheet or on top of a filling). Put in the oven for about 40 minutes. Check on it, see that it's cooked. Eat it.

NB: If you put the cheese on top of the lasagne sheets I'd recommend putting a really tiny bit of cottage cheese/something with moisture on the sheets with it so it doesn't burn, not sure if it would but yeah, that's what I did and it turned out nicely though the top lasagne sheets were a bit crunchy.

Mmmmm... lasagne.

Matching?

I was rather amused by some of the stuff in a bebo post that I got from my friend. It had the whole 'if you were born in this month then you are...' thing and so I thought I'd take mine to pieces. Also, at the bottom I've posted all of them so you can have a look at yours if you want.

I was born in December, so apparently... :

Thinks far with vision? Um... imaginative and analysing I suppose, about 'life' stuff, complicated to know, I suppose - refer back to the last question - because I'm quite hard to understand, there's only about 3 friends who actually understand me, and sadly only one person who fully understands me - Dan, Sarah and Carol understand me, Carol is the only one who really fully understands me, and hey, she's my sister and lives with me so she has more opportunity to understand me...

De ja vu. I have a feeling I already said this one, will have to remove this extra one when I post December below...

Ok, here are the rest minus the usual 'If you post this in the next 5 mins you will meet your true love/excell in some activity/make a new best friend etc.' or 'If you don't post this in the next 5 mins you will die a terrible death/lose a friend etc.' Hmm... having a look at these quite a few look similar...

I feel pretty, Oh so pretty

Hehe, I have a lovely skirt that makes me feel pretty :). And makes me look pretty too, well, pretty for me anyway, which is nice. Mum bought it for me when we went shopping on Monday, she also bought me a kimono-type black and white top which is coolies, I got some cargo-type grey-blue trousers and a red cap-sleeved top - the cap-sleeves are lacy-ish and it's got the crimpy bit in the middle top part of the front. They're all really nice clothes, thank you very much to mum - best way to shop, with someone else's money :).
Computer's been spazzy lately, this is why I haven't blogged, it doesn't let me go on the internet sometimes, really annoying.
Well I've done most of my exams now, just three left, Physics tomorrow, RE - Sikhism next Wednesday and Statistics on Thursday. Then it's all over! Can't wait, lol.

Look good, Feel good, it's all good :).

Life...

In general.
Nyer.

Oh, went to Dan/Tash's party on Friday and it was fantastic! :D Lots of fun, can't be bothered to write about it right now so just yeah, I really enjoyed it. And v. happy they liked my prezzies :), Gave Tash a painting I did of her and gave Dan some Minstrels and a book I made with lots of quotes from the last two years, printed photos and random stuff. Hehe, tis goodly :).

Have been feeling a bit nyer though, I think it must be coz of unhealthiness, I've not been eating at all healthy, I think it's called... comfort food, but it's not good... Yeah so I've done a plan thingy for stuff, it includes - Ideas of what to eat every day, Revision to be done every day, Exercise to be done every day and any other random notes I thought of (Like 'Drink lots of water', 'buy more apples' and 'learn how to make spinach lasagna').

So that's pretty good :). Feel a bit more under control now. Need to get some sleep tonight. Gotta dry my hair... Goodnight.
