Walking to uni causes a bit of a dilemma for me. I'll take a peek out of my window in the morning, assess the weather, dress accordingly and (reluctantly) head outside for the sometimes 45 minute walk - I prefer to call it a trek - to uni. I'm not the fittest individual... not in the slightest... so I tend to get a tad warm. Basically, if I've put on a coat, I guarantee that I'll have taken it off within 5 minutes of leaving my house. A coat is a pain to lug around so I've started to layer up a bit more like I have here, or at least opt for a thin jacket rather than a coat so I can pop it in my bag. Things may change as winter approaches though!

 Onto the bargain that wasn't a bargain - the watch. It's an absolutely crap purchase, even for just a fiver. Ascetically, I like it a lot, but practically I have never come across something so useless. The little stick bit that goes through the hole (lovely description there...) to secure the watch isn't long enough (this is sounding more and more dodgy), so it comes undone within seconds of putting it on. Awful! I bought it for work as it'd be nice to know what time it is, but it looks like it'll live in my sewn-on pocket in my blazer (my blazer had no pockets so I had to get the I-won-this-tat-in-a-cracker mini sewing kit out and get DIY-ing). Maybe I should fork out for something haf-decent sometimes!
