7QT: Twas the Week Before Christmas…

…And not much was stirring. That’s the problem with being on break from the usual routine; one loses the rhythm that once inspired blogging. 7 Quick Takes Friday is hosted by This Ain’t the Lyceum. ~1~ Well, it was my partner’s birthday on Sunday. A week before Christmas, poor lad, but at least we got …

Quick Takes: Two Weeks

I fully meant to be part of the blog-hop last week, but, somehow, it escaped me, and this I guess this is a culmination of last week's and this week's adventures. ~1~ I must say it every week, but my time is being swept away from me now, though not necessarily in a bad way. …

7 Quick Takes: Of Work and Play

It's Friday, which means it's that time again for 7 Quick Takes, hosted over at This Ain't the Lyceum. ~1~ This week has been a hectic one. I suppose it started as it meant to go on. Non-UK people probably didn't hear, but I bet if you live in the south of England, you would've …

7 Quick Takes: A Recap of the Vanished

I know I’ve been absent from 7 Quick Takes Friday for a while now. Some of it has been out of my control – moving and all that jazz – but some of it, I must admit, has been laziness on my part. So, of all the things, this is a Friday catch-up, I suppose. …

7 Quick Takes: Prayer, Trust, and All the Choices

I’m back for the Friday 7 Quick Takes today. Hosted, as usual, by This Ain’t the Lyceum. Check ‘em out! ~1~ Choices, Choices, and More Choices. I've been trying to make a few *big* choices, difficult choices. Retrospectively, they’re not things that would seem that important to other people, but making choices is something I …

7 Quick Takes – Essays, Time-Management and God

Let's pop over to This Ain't the Lyceum to see how everybody's been doing this week. ~1~ Firstly, it is this little blog's fourth birthday! I'll admit that it's been a less-impressive run than the last couple of years in terms of blogging, but on the other hand, I have got things done and my …

Quick Takes about Guided Prayer, Farmyard Frolics, and a Rule of Life for Next Year

Oh, hi, Friday, come here often? Haha, the week has passed so quickly with the everything and nothing I’ve been doing. ~1~ Guess what I’ve been doing this evening? My Neuroscience revision is coming together for my exam next week, and that occasionally involves painting a silver squishy/stress ball brain with various colours to represent …

7 Quick Takes: Shakespeare, Swing, Subjectivity Research

The busyness of my weeks barely permit me to have time to write a post, and I'm squeezing in each as I go, stealing spare pennies. 7 Quick Takes Friday is hosted by Kelly of This Ain't the Lyceum. ~1~ As usual, I start with the work. I've been doing research for my third year …

7 Quick Takes about the 80s, Blogging, and Reviewing

It’s Friday. Let’s wipe the sweat from our brows and settle into our weekend routines after sharing our days. Hosted by Thisain’ttheLyceum: Friday’s 7 Quick Takes. ~1~ Our host Kelly did some getting-to-know-you abouts today, but there's frankly not much I can actually add to my own factoid. I'm a Catholic convert and have been for …

Quick Takes Friday about Winter’s Iciness, Anxiety Reading, and oh yeah it’s Friday

Once again, the week rolls around to Friday in a flash, and we gather together to share seven quick takes about our weeks, hosted by the lovely This Ain't the Lyceum. #1. Although Friday has been commercialised by popular media, I cant help but enjoy this Katy Perry song and be glad that my weekend has …
