i'm rather excited about my new kitchen. I've even picked out a colour for it. I wanted a bluey grey, but most of the colours i found were either too grey or too blue. I found one called platinum which looked just right, but in fact came out more blue on the wall. But as it happens it looks really good. I think it looks a little cold, but with the wood from the kitchen. i think it will look great. Plus i will end up putting pictures on the wall, so a lighter colour is definately better. And the blue goes well with silver, giving a fresh, clean look. I'm hoping to get some silver into every room, so that there is some sense of continuity, but in a subtle way. I'm also sticking to lighter tones of colours to again give a very fresh, clean feel.

Of course, i'm now really poor, my cheque for my shares hasn't come through yet.

I feel I should have an official opening for my new kitchen...

OU work (yes it's rather boring journal-wise, but it's what i'm going). I've finished the unit on art. I don't like Rothko's work
anymore than i did, i just don't see that he sees. I might try and squeeze in a trip to the Tate Modern to see his paintings, but my first free Saturday is in a months time!

I just have music to finish off (i'm onto early music revival now, which i am enjoying), then a quick flick through block 7 before i make a start on the tma. I hope to get that started this weekend so that I am well underway before Monday's tutorial, but not so far that I have the wrong end of the stick it won't be too much waste.

I'm also getting back into Stoning again. I had forgotten how much i missed the community. People who are into the same things as me, and don't find anything weird about spending a year tryign to solve something!
