and I am so excited for these last 3 months of 2013.
I've finished working in the lab now and have started back at uni. Post-graduate study is much harder, and I've been a bit overwhelmed looking at the syllabus, but I know I can do it, and it's going to be so interesting.
I get to do another dissertation on a topic of my choosing, so I'm going to look at post-traumatic stress disorder in war veterans. I haven't a clue what angle to go in at, but I'm hoping to link it to treatment/management of the disorder.
I've also applied to the Doctorate for next year. Although it's very rare for people to get accepted first time, I'm optimistic. I'm not expecting anything, but there's always hope, right!
I can't believe how much our little fluffball has grown! He's now 12 week old and has had his second lot of jabs, so he's been on two walks around the block too. He wasn't too sure about it - he doesn't like the cars or the sound of other dogs barking, but he did extremely well otherwise and I can't wait to let him meet my cousins dog soon to socialise a little!
His favourite game is spinning around until his feet come off the ground. His little tail goes around like a propeller. I love watching his eyes bulge like this - he's so happy!
The weather has just turned and its getting a lot colder and starting to rain more.
Starbucks are starting to do their pumpkin spice lattes soon, and the cooler weather means the summer clothes have all gone away for the next 8 months. But that's fine with me - I can't wait to get back into my winter clothes!

It also means it's getting closer to my three favourite celebrations...
Halloween
My Birthday
&
Christmas!
I'm determined to start a tradition of somesort this halloween,
and am hoping to take the Mr. to a pumpkin patch so we can pick our own pumpkins to carve.
Netflix also has uploaded Halloween Ressurection, so that will keep us entertained :)
I might try my hand at crock-potting this, too...
I'm majorly stuck on birthday ideas though!
I'm tempted to have a little get together at the house, but in all honesty, what is there to do other than chat, watch ridiculously embarrassing baby videos and drink punch?
My sisters always made me a really cool cake, so I'm going to start dropping hints for this years theme....

| 2010 crime scene cake |

| 2009 giant pink fondant fancy cake |
Me and my best friend have birthdays within 2 days of each other, so we usually do something. Last year, we went to a roller disco...
It was so much fun.
There are a couple restaurants I always think I'll pick somewhere exciting this time, and we just end up going to our favourite Mexican or Seafood place. Not that there's anything wrong with Chiquito or Maritimo.
