    Strangers are just friends you haven't met yet.

    Apparently... ;)

    Too many replies to remember who said what so if I miss you, let me know.

    I think some of it might be SAD but it's hard to tell since I spend most of the winter away from my family so I'm feeling low cuz of that as well. I'm signing up for a 10k sponsored walk that's going on in late June some time next week (you guys are a bad influence on me :D ) so I'll have to get out more to practice for that. I walked back from the station today for practice (and because I had no change and would've felt stupid giving the driver a £10 note) and I am feeling more positive tonight so there could be some of that in it.

    The volunteering I'm looking at at the moment is events organising for the uni's volunteering society and some mentoring work as well. I've pretty much given up on getting a job during the term for the moment, I figure if I budget well I can get through next uni year on just my loan. So that'll give me more time to do other things.

    So yes, I'm going to go for it. I think it'll help get me motivated and make me feel better, which will make me work more. And if I'm not working enough, I always have you lot to kick me up the bum. :D
