Sleeping, Shopping and a Whole Lotta Icing!!

Well, the past few days on my first week of uni have been fantastic! First, I went to uni for my first few lectures, then I explored York (and got lost), and then I went shopping for food and stuff. I have a little confession to make though....

If I don't set 3 alarms, I have a tendancy to fall asleep again.

But don't worry, I've not missed any of my lectures (although one came pretty close to me walking in late) - I tend to walk quite fast, so I can make a 15-minute walk last 10 minutes or slightly less :)
Looks like I'll be setting 3 alarms every time I need to get up in future (which will most likely be every day) :D

On a different and tastier note, I've been baking cakes!!!!
Check it out!

My flatmates helped with the decorations like the hand-made roses and the sparkly bits. They're also helping with eating them, which is a good sign that the oven's working just fine :D
We took some to a different flat downstairs as well - they're also helping with eating them, so that's a good sign too :)

I'm really enjoying my time here in York, not only due to baking, amazing flatmates and a great course, but also thanks to all the dinky shops dotted around the city! I'm particularly fond of a little walkway called The Shambles, partly due to a small knitting shop (with a HUGE ball of wool in the window) and partly due to my love of souvenirs. I don't need any, they just might be nice as a gift for someone :3 *bought*

I'll be off to find a church tomorrow morning - gonna start my search at St. Thomas', as it's not too far away (just behind the uni). I'm going to try St. Michael-Le-Belfry next Sunday evening, as I have already promised my flatmates that I would go to this big party called Battle of the Halls tomorrow night.

Though I have said to them that I can't stay out for the whole thing.
I have a session at 9am on Monday -

And it's the Primary Ed. Dance Workshop...
