Longing eyes

This was a snap I took of Puck before I left to go back to uni on Sunday. His eyebrows are so expressive! I have been longing for today, to be over really as the first half of our final year is being assessed today. It went fine, just the wait on the marks begin now. Tomorrow our year is taking a trip to Lille in France to look at museums... we think, we don't really know!
I'm also longing to go back to Monday night and listen to John Mayer again. I keep remembering bits 'n pieces from the night, such as him singing 'Waiting in Vain' - I love the version by Annie Lennox.

Yesterday my friend Howard and I ventured on the highspeed link (!) from Canterbury to London, to go and see John Mayer at the Hammersmith Apollo. I was incredibly excited for it!
Like no one else I think I've seen there was such a mix of people in the audience, which I guess shows his appeal even though still in the UK lots of people don't know him or his music. I, on the other hand... this was the third time I've seen him. Big fan? Yeah!

I could go on to describe every moment, but we could be here a while. Definitely check out Freefallin' live in LA, when he played it last night, that made our night!

Hook and wool

My Nanna used to knit and crochet alot and over the last few years I have really got into it. Project work is so hectic at the moment - we have out critique on Thursday so every hour of the day is going towards preparing for that - and I just need something to take my mind off of CAD, rendering and housing!

Nanna knitted us bedsocks and crocheted blankets so I thought I'd have a go at an Afghan blanket; once you know how it's pretty easy! I also came across this one by Sandra Juto (via kiddet) and I love the range of colours unified by the off-white.

So I say if you need to take your mind off thing, grab a hook and a ball of wool and get crocheting!

Also I'm going to see John Mayer in concert tomorrow evening (for the third time-big fan me!) and if that doesn't make me smile, nothing will! And thank you to everyone commenting, it makes me glad to know people from all over the globe are having a little gander at my humble blog!

John Mayer is my favourite music man ever. I can't really even say why but whenever I hear any of his songs, the make me smile so much! I've seen him twice when he (occasionally) comes to the UK and throughout I'm going "oh my gahd, I love this song" again and again! His new album is coming out soon and he's doing a few gigs in January - I cannot wait!

This is his new video, the song "Who Says" is so him, but I love how this is filmed, the colours and the imagery! And this is my favouritest!
