My first post since August 6th eh? Well this is where things get regular again.
So, a quick recap of the last couple of months, so you're all up to speed. Edinburgh Fringe was amazing, regardless of the fact that the reviewers hated us. We all had a good time and I got to meet a couple of special people in my world - Norman Lovett, best known for playing Holly in sci-fi sitcom Red Dwarf, and Anthony Rapp, who played Mark in the film version of hit musical Rent. I also discovered the delights of strawberry beer and a wonderful pub called 'The Tron', where all roads lead to. What was even more special was seeing Mum, Dad and my godfather Howard come and support me during my show. Next year, I plan to go again, although without the 13-hour bus journey this time...
After that, things go downhill. Me and Alex split up at the start of September, however it was all dealt with very maturely and we are still the best of friends. The saddest news was to come though. On 12th September, an old schoolfriend of mine, Rosie Kilburn, lost her three-and-a-half year battle with cancer. She had raised well into four figures for various charitites with the help of her own online shop, The Knock On Effect, and I had done things my own way to support her. The funeral was beautiful, between 200-400 people there, depending on reports, and Rosie is always with me, in my heart and on my bag in the form of a domino badge, dominoes being one of TKOE's logos.
Since then, I have started my second year at uni and am thoroughly enjoying it, although am currently feeling a little worse for wear. Although I was indeed at a party last night, that's not the reason. You see, on Wednesday, when ALSO out, I made the conscious decision to cut back on my smoking, to stop having maybe 10 cigarettes a day and going to the odd one every now and then, with maybe a pack of 10 for socials and 20 for the uni's Drink the Bar Dry event. Even as I write this, I'm starting to get a craving!
I have to go, I'm going to have some food and head down to the library, to print out things and get myself in order for uni next week. I'll probably post later tonight, if not I'll definitely do so tomorrow. As the title says, this is becoming regular again.
