So, whats my news?
Well I found out recently that I am part of Mamma Mia - I'm playing Ali (Sophie's best friend). I sang Valerie in my audition, it went pretty well and I got in with a bunch of other great people! We're going to perform in February which should be really nice, I'm looking forward to when rehearsals begin and we can start learning everything.

The workload is slowly but surely increasing! It seemed like we had absolutely nothing to do, then in the space of 2 days I was given about 5 assessments. I've managed knuckle down to get through most of it though - I now have a week to complete my global politics and english assessments which is easily do-able!
I've messed up my wrist pretty badly. I've strained/tore some of the ligaments down the outwards side of my left hand wrist playing rugby the other day! So, I'm in a splint for 2 weeks, and if it's still bad after that I have to go see an orthopaedic consultant. It's project week a week today so I'm off to the Himalayas to do some hiking, so I hope it's recovered before that.
Just after I return, my Mum's coming to visit! 1 week after I am back from project week, I'm leaving campus again for exeat (4 day long break when you can leave campus with your friends to go to wherever you want to). I think I may travel with my Mum and Chris for the first 3 days, then go to Mumbai for 1 night with my mates, but I'm not sure yet.
I'm still part of fire service - today we took machetes and hacked away at the grass in order to make a kind of fire wall around campus. I was pretty useless seeing as I couldn't really swing the machete with my wrist but I was there for moral support! We're gonna burn away a 3m wide circle all around in a (hopefully!) controlled manner so that when the actual fire season starts, the fires will not actually make it to campus.
I've changed my off-campus triveni because Manavya didn't fit in very well into my schedule. Now I do Paud Children's Home which is good fun. The kids are all really sweet and we had our first session the other day - I taught the kids the hokey cokey and we did a dance/some other games. I think we may be teaching them some maths next week which should be fun.
Sorry if this post is long overdue and seems really disjointed/random, but I haven't had much time to write recently
Love from India!
