Yeeeeee-feckin'-ha!!!!

Why hello you fantastic summer-lovin', magically, brilliant peeps!!! How happy am I (very)! I've officially finished uni! It's all done and dusted! I can't wait to start focusing all this extra energy on all things Opal Sky. That is of course after some well deserved rest and relaxation!

Hit a bit of a 'crash and burn' stage at the mo' after running off of pure nervous energy for weeks, I just constantly feel like having a wee snooze! It feels damn fine having got all this work done though. My final task was my singing exam on Friday morning (think X factor type judging panel, but they're actually nice folk who know what they're talking about!). It went well and was actually a lot more fun than last year. I had one major screw up that meant my fantastical brass/horn section didn't get to do thier thing (sorry you talented bunch!), but apart from that I was well happy with it. We had a good time playing, I guess because the gigs have been scarce since I've been uni-ing -it-up-to-the-max!

Anyhoo, much joviality and (lovely, lovely) boozing followed, and it was a great end to the last two years o' studying. I wound down and felt pretty exhausted for the next couple of days (still do), but with long lazy summer evenings finally upon us, and feck all to do but enjoy them, I'm pretty much over the moon! A big thanks to my mum for cooking me a top notch BBQ last night, I ate till it hurt (mmmmm!)!

No rest for the wicked though. With a sold out Tut's gig next week, we need to get some serious practice time in. Can't wait to play a proper gig again! YAAAASSS!!! It's going to be a whole lot of fun!

A big thanks to Jane for surprising me with Corrine Bailey Rae tickets on Friday night (what a sweet heart!), and also to Robbie for inviting me out to see the Black Eyed Peas with him next weekend.

Last but not least, WELL DONE to all my mates who've got through another stressful year of education, especially to those who've now reached the end! BIG UP YERSELS! Give me a buzz for some pint action, lets' make this summer a belter folks!

Rock n' roll!
