Smoking

Had a really lazy week since coming back to university, has been a very good week though a binge of Disney films and a mass of excitement about finally getting the key to the flat. I must say though I think I may have set a record as a first time buyer, there was a week between my viewing the property and the sellers accepting my offer. Was a nervous week though, as the offers over system in Scotland baffles me.

I have recently given up smoking (I smoked for about 4 and a bit years), I decided to quit smoking due to the obvious health and financial set backs it has. Its coming up to 3 weeks now and still managing to fight off the temptations, there is an incentive though, Me and Malene are putting money into a holiday/fun-stuff account for each day that I don't smoke. The thought of our first real holiday together is enough motivation for me to stop smoking. There are some penalties that I'm subject to; if I smoke then Malene gets 50% of the fun account all to herself to spend as she sees fit. But that's not the worst of it, I've made a deal that if I smoke and lie or don't tell her about it then my Christmas holiday might be more lonely than desirable. Yep! If I smoke I'll be staying in Aberdeen over the Christmas holidays ALONE!

University starts up again on Monday not sure if its something to look forward to considering my complete lack of productivity over the 3 week Easter break. Fortunately the system at Aberdeen is wonderful and the first two years is based on a pass or fail system at least allowing for one to not have to preform at 100% for everything.
