Okay, so now I have all of my fun graduation gifts I'm going to show them off - I wanted to wait until I got the one off my dad because it is gorgeous.

So~ I saw Toy Story 3 today, and oh my god, it has officially replaced UP as my favourite Pixar film. Unfortunately the beginning was a little spoiled by some noisy brats who'd snuck into the screen and wouldn't shut the hell up, but they got caught and moved out of the screen and it was much quieter after that.

I shan't talk too much about it for the sake of those who haven't seen it, but I would recommend it wholeheartedly. I nearly cried at the end and I didn't even cry at the end of Moulin Rouge, or The Green Mile. I have no soul (apparently).

It's my mum's 50th on Sunday, and my grandad's 70th on Monday. I'm not so concerned about mum - she keeps saying she's going to be really depressed over it but I don't think she will, she'll just get on with things because she's sensible and that's what she's like. My grandad, however, I am more concerned about. Like my nanna his health isn't the best and hasn't been for a long time. I don't really remember much of him from my childhood but I know that he wasn't always as thin as he is now, and a couple of months ago was the first time that my nanna said that she might not have that long left. I know she's right, she's nearly eighty and it's amazing she's gone on this long, but still, it was a bit of a shock to hear her say it. I suppose when you're young (yeah I'm not a kid anymore bit I'm only 21) you can sometimes forget, especially if you're lucky enough to have never lost a family member like I have been, that people do get old and die, and it's difficult to get my head around the fact that at some point, possibly very soon, either one or both of them isn't going to be around anymore.

Hm.

I'm sure I had more to say here, but I can't remember any of it. Oh well!
