Yep a very slow week :-(  After writing my essay I didn't really feel like writing anything else and I didn't feel so hot towards the end of the week.

WHAT I READ HIS WEEK:

Yeah, I didn't read much either.

THIS WEEK IN REAL LIFE:

Well, I finally finished my essay and it was a lot harder than expected and it took me three whole days to write. UGH and it was so stressful I went a little crazy.
On Thursday I finally got to see Captain America: The Winter Soldier and it was Tres Awesome, I loved it and I want it on DVD now so I can watch it over and over again. After watching that, a lot that has been happening in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D makes a lot more sense.
I found out this week that the Vampire Academy movie is not going to be released in UK cinemas but is getting a straight to DVD release, this news made me very unhappy indeed.
After I got home on Thursday, I got laid low by a massive headache, the kind that hurts more when you move. I thought that I was coming down with something because I felt real crappy as well, but it has remained just a generally crappy feeling. I am not sure what it is, but I suspect the HUGE amounts of dairy (mostly cheese) I ate on Thursday might be a contributing factor, compounded with three whole days of stressful essay writing.

NEXT WEEK ON MY BLOG:

Hopefully I will be back to my normal self and be up to writing and using my brain again ;-)

NEXT WEEK IN REAL LIFE:

I am hoping to do a mutual exchange sometime soon and I am off to look at a house on Tuesday. Hopefully I will like it and they will like my house and fingers crossed, this time next month(ish) I shall be moved.
I may go and see Captain America again, or see The Amazing Spiderman 2. I am going with my sister who hasn't seen either so I will let her decide, I am happy either way.
Other than that, I have nothing else planned, besides reading and revision.

I hope everyone else had a better week than me and that next week will be much better.

 I also hope that it will stop raining here and that the sun will come out to stay. I am so ready for outside reading.
