arwen, doing nasty essays. being a student should *not* involve work!

i now have a rock on my left hand! its all v exciting!
telling my parents was a bit of a trial, but they were v happy, which was good. the only downside is the sheer size of my family, which means i had to listen to "congratulations! you must be so happy! how did it happen? did he get down on one knee? was it very romantic?"
i have nothing against those questions, its just answering them uni friends, friends at home, andrews friends, mine and his parents, both my sets of grandparents, 4 sets of aunts and uncles, numerous great aunts and uncles, *and* cousins and siblings all gets a bit much!
