well hello there.
it's been a long time since i've looked at livejournal! i've been crap. i shall try to keep up more. so yeah, hi.
i've had the longest most boring summer known to the history of all mankind. i have completely failed to get any work experience which probably means i've failed my third year but to be honest i'm thinking of just not going back. i've been trying to get away as much as i possibly can because joey and karen are away and rosie, well she doesn't leave her room so i've pretty much been alone for 2 months and i am slowly going mad as a result. i haven't seen another person since sunday apart from at work and they are all rubbish. i have no money as i'm getting a grand total of 8 hours a week at work at the moment, so can't even afford to eat let alone pay rent and bills. or train tickets to get away. i had to sell my reading ticket at the last minute because i couldn't afford to get there but as i had borrowed money from my mum for the ticket i obviously didn't get anything for it.
having said that it was great to see most of you at laura's wedding, then i had a lovely weekend in the isle of wight with some friends, and have had a few really good nights here and there. a lot of them are actually people i met over the internet. see what my life has come to. i never thought i would do that :/ it would appear most of the real world has forgotten me :( |

i've not updated this in ages. hi everyone *waves*
i passed my second year of uni, despite doing no work at all. even the essay i handed in late, which i thought could only get 40%, got 65 (i did it in one night) and i got 99 in shorthand :O how, i have no idea. i think i have re-earned my title as queen of blag ;)
it would appear almost the whole world apart from me was at glade last weekend. i'm jealous of you all. next year!!
until next time xxxx

so i had a 4000 word essay due tomorrow which i couldn't do the research for so i decided not to bother and just do the resit. then my tutor emailed me earlier (i emailed her DAYS ago and it's taken her this long to reply!) saying if you resit you can only get 40%, so i thought 4000 words in a night? easy!, took some pro plus then found out that i can't access the article i need online cuz it's blocked and you have to pay £30. fuck that. so now i'm going to have to get up and to the library for 8.30 tomorrow when it opens and try to get on to this article, then write the essay before mid day. they don't call me the queen of blag for nothing! (it clearly won't happen. but i'm a bit beyond caring now, kingston uni is really pissing me off, it's rubbish!)
sorry. rant over. wow this is my first post longer than one sentence in ages!

i thought i'd update because i'm bored and in a lesson and i havent written in here in ages... i miss everyone back home, i'll be coming back on the 8th (which i think is next weekend) for robots in disguise at the pressure point, and probably staying for a few days if i can get off work, so it would be great to see you all if you're going to be around! especially if anyone wants to come to the gig with me...?
ooo end of the lesson now ill try to update more often from now on!

i just realised i've only updated this thing like 7 times this year, and most of those were while i was still at my parents' house and bored so i thought i'd say hi...
i've been... working lots. and not much else tbh. when you're working pretty much every night there's no time for going out!! having said that this weekend looks awesome, i'm going to a clubin central with steve on friday then on saturday we managed to get tickets for the edward scissorhands play(!!) i was trying to get some aaages ago for my birthday but it was all sold out, they must have added some new dates or something cuz karen got us tickets for saturday afternoon and i'm really looking forward to it :)
then saturday night we're having a party at our house, it sould be cool - would be great to see some people from home here *hint hint* i think everyone here is beginning to think i didn't have any friends before i moved here!!
i have tickets for the boosh again on april 19th. this makes me happy and more than a little bit excited, although i've been banned from showing my xcitement by joey who is getting very annoyed with it lol... he's even talking about selling his ticket cuz he's 'gone off it now' crazy...
i'm eating crunchy nut cornflakes, they are yummy but they KNOW NOTHING OF THE CRUNCH! they are all soggy, its rubbish they should invent infinitely crunchy cereal, how good would that be?!?
anyway im talking shit. i shall see you all soon my lovelies :)

this week i have been mostly not going to uni then getting angry with myself for not going. i suck.
i called in 'sick' to work yesterday to go to oxford for the day with joey, went to his band practise for a bit then wandered into town, to the boosh signing at borders (i'm not obsessed honest!) had to queue up for ages, luckily there were cool people in the queue cuz i felt like a bit of a tit going on my own.. but ( i got to meet noel and julian ) so i was happy :) even though there was an evil borders woman pushing me out of the way when i was trying to talk to them >:( i saw them outside before i went in but i was too scared to go up and say hi. wish i had now cuz i could have met them all properly and not had to queue forever, but i'm rubbish at talking to people, especially in situations like that where they would have probably thought i was a psycho stalker lol...
we had a ridiculously rock and roll drive back to kingston then went out to a party at kings cross, but i didn't know anyone and was in that state of tired almost-drunk-but-not-quite-drunk-enough where you can't bring yourself to be sociable. by the time we got home after the usual night bus mission of getting dumped in wimbledon and having to wait half an hour in the freezing cold for another bus (i hate the night buses and i HATE wimbledon!!) it felt like the longest day ever. then i found my boosh dvd with its 'lots of ♥ noelxxx' written inside and it made me happy again :)

the boosh was fucking amazing. it's all a bit like a dream really, it still doesn't seem quite real. vince noir is a god. ♥
here are some ( photos, ) the first half taken by me (we weren't as far back as it looks, my camera's just rubbish and doesn't zoom properly) and the second half by tub in the front row :) some of them didn't come out too good but i'm posting them all cuz i know there are people who want to see them!
i want to see it again.

hurrah! i got boosh tickets! :D *does a little dance*
my dad randomly called me earlier when i was in town and said someone at his work was selling them so he got them for me. i may have gone a bit mad yelling across the shop to joey that we were going after all :)
this has made my day. no. my week. no. my whole year thus far! :D they will probably end up bring rubbish seats with hardly any view of the stage but i'll be there! hurrah! *does another little dance*
*is happy*

just got back from uni looking forward to watching another episode of nathan barley (emma you got me addicted!) and neighbours and chilling out then i get a call saying i have to go to work in walton blockbuster because they have no staff tonight. where the fuck is walton?? so much for relaxing grr...
also i have a favour to ask anyone who reads this... i've been trying to find tickets for the mighty boosh live but apparently its impossible as i didnt know it was happening til it was already sold out :( tickets are going on ebay for like £70 and i can't afford that so if any of u hear about anyone with a spare ticket or 2 i'd love you forever if you let me know, i might cry forever if i don't go, i'm just a little bit obsessed.... i know lots of u are going to the brighton one anyway so you'll probably see me standing outside on the night begging random people for tickets heh...
anyway i must go to work. bah. today sucks >:/

i thought i'd better update as it's that time of year again... i've done no coursework as yet.. partly due to the fact that i've been working full time at blockbuster while i'm off uni, problem is lots of people have left and i've now been roped in to covering most of their shifts because i asked for extra hours a while back and now i've got them i don't really feel like i can say no because i won't be offered them again if i do :/ so i'm probably going to do really badly this semester but tbh i'm beyond caring. at least i'll have money and not starve to death or anything!
i just looked for mighty boosh live tickets on ebay, they are lots and lots of money. i reeeally want to go though... maybe i should put my extra blockbuster money to good use and buy them... but then i'll have failed last semester for the sake of a show. dammit! i'm such a retard lol. *cries*
*runs away*

last night was cool, we went to corrosion at the honey club for rachels irthday, i never thought i'd set foot inside the honey club again after steve's 'leaving do' (he didn't even want one lol) but it was good fun, the music was far better than gloucester etc (not dfficult i know!), there weren't as many ppl there as i expected so it was a bit scary trying to dance but it was a good night and much alcohol was consumed :) then adam and i WALKED BACK FROM BRIGHTON getting back at nearly 5am lol... go us!
now i have to go back to kingston, my mum made me get up at 8 because she was leaving and didn't believe i'd get up if she wasn't there to make me (clearly she doesn't realise that being a student i have to get up all by myself every day :/) i've been ready to go since 9 and waiting for steve cuz he decided he was getting a lift with us at the last minute. fun.
i have photos from last night but if i start uploading them now i'll probably have to leave before i'm done so it will have to wait til i get the internet sorted in my house, which i'm determined will be SOON!

i managed to get off work tonight so i could stay here a bit longer and now i'm sitting here bored with nothing to do lol. typical...
hope u all had a good new year, i myself did not, i had to work so i drove up to kingston and back, got here about 10 and started calling round to see where everyone was but couldn't work out what was going on and would have had no way of getting back from brighton if i went on the offchance of finding people. so i stayed in. with my parents. joy. or perhaps not :/
hoping to make up for it tonight with rachel's birthday thing, everyone should come out it's gunna be cool and i'm leaving tomorrow so i wanna see u all before i go!
anyhoo.. i'm bored in case u couldn't tell so i decided to do another one of these annoying long ridiculously time-consuming questionaire things.. i did this one last year and, erm, i'm doing it again ( now ) |
