Global Audiences, Exam Results and the Snow

I found out where people worldwide are finding my blog, and it's not exciting at all. Strangely enough, people from all over the world do not care about the mindless ramblings of a 19 year old student. They're looking for pictures of broken ankles and casts.

All of the referring sites have been from Google-dot-something-forwardslash-images (in various languages). Well there goes my little five seconds of fame.

In other news, I found out today that I got a healthy 2:2 on the Philosophy exam I genuinely thought I'd failed. I was ecstatic to say the least; 58% will do me especially as I literally blagged the whole thing. And I got 65% in an English essay which I also thought went pretty badly. It's my highest mark in a Literature essay so far and I'm quite happy with a mid-2:1 for my first year. Hopefully I'll still be able to bust the essays out even though I'm taking part in not-so-well-organised distance learning.

Oh and that's another thing. I was supposed to be going up to visit my Norwich friends this weekend, but that of course has been put on hold due to it looking like this up there:

Now I know it looks beautiful and all but it is not good for a woman on crutches. Also bearing in mind that I can't fit a shoe on my left foot I think my toes would get frostbite pretty quickly, even with a very fluffy sock on. So now I'm stuck indoors for another week. Very frustrating! I have had two visitors this week which was lovely and a very welcome break from just the conversations with my family (not that I don't want to talk to my family, but I needed to gossip.)

The snow is beginning to fall here in Essex now, although nowhere near as much as it has done in other parts of the country. It seems to have really missed us this year. But I for one am definitely not complaining.
