#52weeksofhappiness-Week 50

 Hello there! How are you? And how has your week been? This week, as always, has been busy. A lot of my time is now being taken up with assessments and reading for them, but I have managed to squeeze a few fun things in here and there! 

 I spent Sunday afternoon making Tom's birthday cake, as it was his birthday on Monday. I made a 'Fudgy Chocolate Layered Cake', which is what I always tend to have for my birthday, as it is my favourite. I had never personally made it before, but it turned out well! As Monday was Tom's birthday, after our lectures had finished for the day I took him to Prezzo's for tea. On our way down there, we took a walk through Ranmoor and I hadn't been there since I worked over intro weekend! It was so strange going back to somewhere where I used to live, but knowing that all of the people currently there were strangers to me. It was a really nice nostalgic moment and memories of first year came flooding back. Tom and I hadn't been to Prezzo's in ages, and the menu had changed! We used to have the bread board to share as a starter, but unfortunately they had taken this off the menu, so we had garlic bread with mozzarella to share. We both went for a VIP pizza (I ordered one so I knew I could have some left over for lunch the next day), Tom had a Margherita with added ham and chicken, and I had the tropicana with added chicken. The waiter seemed quite shocked that we didn't want to see the dessert menu, but we had to go back home so we could have some cake! 

 Wednesday evening saw Tom's 'birthday bash part 1' (part 2 is today at Pop Tarts!) where he and a group of friends went to Corp for a night out. Before this though, Tom, Luke, Jacob, Will and I went for tea at The Ball pub. On Wednesday's they have a deal on curries, so it would be rude not to wouldn't it? After tea we headed to BarOne (the union bar) for a few drinks with the group who eventually made their way to Corp. 

 On Thursday evening Tom and I had a chilled night in watching Homeland. If you've been wondering about what happened to our alphabet dates, do not fear, we are slowly carrying them on. I think the last time I mentioned them, was just after we had gone ice skating. For 'J' we had a Jazz night, which essentially meant we found a jazz playlist and clicked our fingers a bit in Tom's room! And for 'K' we did karaoke (not in public) where we each picked a duet, which meant I could finally get Tom to sing 'Love is an Open Door' from Frozen again! I'm currently waiting for Tom to organise L (I'm hoping for laser quest!).

I met the loveliest cat the other day!

What made you happy this week?
