Well Asena I thought maybe somebody would've surprised her with a thread all to herself. Perhaps one of those people that noticed the cake next to her name yeserday (which i, to my shame, did not - still fussing with silly breaksy people i'm afraid).
Ah well, maybe next year

Empty your mind. Be formless, Shapeless, like Water.
Put Water into a cup, it becomes the cup, put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle, put water into a teapot, it becomes the teapot.
Water can flow, or it can Crash.
Be Water My Friend.

Wow! what a cake! Thanks Cantus! *hungrily devours cake,..mmmm* Ooh, does anyone want any?
Thanks everyone for the lovely birthday wishes I did have a lovely day yesterday, I felt so loved by HoPpers, though a little sad that I can't see you guys more often How are you all? whats everyone up to? I'm currently getting over my hangover (yes, last night was GREAT!), as I got a bit carried away with the dancing and merriness and wine, and champagne, and cocktails... it was worth it!
Lots of love to everyone!

Thanks for the birthday wishes Simian! How are you? I miss Spits Unfortunately I don't think I'll be able to go for ages as I have exams next week as does Tommy But then I'm going on holiday! wooooooooo! Yay!
Hi Sam! yay! Sammy-filled days! No plans as such for the weekend, though I have an exam on Monday so I don't know if I will be at Balls! but thinking about it, I will probably want some friends around after the exam I just can't meet up during the weekend, at least not for very long. I'll let you know exactly what's going on soon

It is was really good to see you and Tommy yesterday. Even if it was only for an hour. Bloody exams! Food was lovely though a tad expensive! And you were students! No wonder you're always broke!
Hope to see you at Falmouth where we wil partake in much wiggling!

Thanks Steaks!
I'm kind of looking forward to it in an "at least I'll be finished soon and I'll have my life back" kinda way,... Still scared tho! It's a practical exam, so they can really tell if you don't know what you're doing
