May 18 The end draws near!Yes the end draws near, and the 4 horsemen of the apocolypse draw near to wreak destruction upon the world and drag me to far off fire-engulfed lands!! ok, ok, my parents are coming to pick me up, and take me home!
It is nearly the end of my second year here at Aber! Im off home next monday for 3 months of drudgery at work, the only respite being a camping trip I am going on to celebrate Toms 21st birthday!! Would you believe, I am a camping virgin!! So I will use this trip as practice for when I go travelling after Uni (I have found a travelling partner now, so its all systems go!)
Get ready those of you in the Southern Hemisphere!! As when we invade your lands, you will never have heard two people cry as much about the size of your bugs, like we will!!
 << This is much like the beach I shall be sitting on, when all of you are in rainy old britain!!As I just mentioned, its the end of the year, which inevitably means those nasty people out to ruin our lives ie teachers (yes, I still refer to my tutors as teachers! well, you are reading the space of a 19 year old girl who still has to choke back the urge to refer to them as 'sir' or 'miss' when talking to them in seminars!!) where was I? oh yes, they set exams, and I have one. Thats enough about that. On to the next subject ...
I have a small hole in the floor in the corner of my room here, from where I had my radiator replaced, and rather than put the new one where the old one was, it was decided that it was best to smash apart my room, and install it three feet to the left!! well, this hole and the wall surrounding it, is frequented by woodlice when it rains outside (whadda ya know! they come inside when it rains!!) well, i got home earlier to be met by a slug smiling at me from the skirting board by this hole!! It got me to thinking about what else could have crawled through this hole, so before I go to bed later, I intend to check under my bed for small orphaned children.
When I move back here after summer, Ill be living in the student villiage, which I intend to have turned into a proper Royston Vasey style village by the end of the year!! (Are you local??!!) Ill harrangue as many neighbours as I can into practising moronic in-bred village grins, and we shall perfect our zombie-style walks!! (I am in no way insinuating that all villages are like this, but mine - yes mine!! will be!)
Tonight pinky, we are going to take over the world!!!!!
I was reading the lonely planets guide to australia and newzealand yesterday, and there are these little rodents in aus, i cant remember their name, but for the first ten months of their lives, they eat as much as they can, and rest loads to get their energy up, and then when they hit 10months, they reach their version of puberty, and the males are so consumed by the need for sex, thats all they concentrate on! by the time they males reach 11 months, most of them are dead due to sexual exhaustion, and from 'carrying around two swollen testes' (lonely planets words no mine!!!!)
(thought Id bring some brightness to you dreary rain filled lives by funking up this page, by making each paragraph a different colour!!)(I said fUNking - behave!)
Wilson!!!!!!
May 02 two days of firstsit was the joint birthday drink for Helen and Spex last night, and ohhhh what a night it was!!
I will not go into the details as there may be family members, or those who are in contact with my mother reading this, but there was lots of drunken debauchery, loud rude names, and strangely, a drunken game of road-rugby during which the ball was in fact someone's shoe
The highlight of the night (except the dirty lesbians in the academy) had to be the ace music in the Bay!! haha we turned up and there was an empty dancefloor, and the theme tune from the A team playing - needless to say, we quickly monopolised the dancing space, and boogied to the likes of 'ive got a brand new combime harvester' and the theme from teenage mutant ninja turtles!! haha heroes in a half shell - turtle power!!!!!
I gave blood for the first time today, and despite my fears that i may faint and bang my head on a nearby brick and suffer a brain hemmorrage and die, it went very well, and i neither fainted nor died (luckily)
i did get two cups of orange squash, and a penguin though, and two lay downs, coz i came over all queer and went a bit pale apparently, so got to lay back down, when i saw a girl who had actually fainted being hauled across the floor by one nurse, who was half the size of this girl, and i was quite impressed when the nurse managed to haul the girl up onto a bed as well as having dragged her across the room in the style of a caveman dragging his cave-bitch back to his cave-house
I do not know what my blood type is yet, but upon the guesswork of jenni, i picked up an 'o-' keyring, but i am too scared to put it on my keys, in case im in some horrendous accident, and the medical team trust that i have the right keyring, and pump me full of o- blood, when in fact im not really that type, and the two conflicting blood cells will get into a fight of stupendous proportions, and i implode.
May 01 Come on you monkeys!!well ive spent a total of 14 hours standing / sitting / laying in a field watching rugby over this weekend! It was the Aber 7s tournament, and i was part of the 'twelve monkeys' entourage, and after sunburning my head, my face and my chest, they got through to the semi finals where they lost to a team who cheated dreadfully, so i reckon that counts as a win for us!! They cheated by having a pro rugby player play in their amateur team - not so bad you may think, but when you put a pro on a field of guys who have never played 7s before then the difference in talent becomes apparent rather quickly!!
picture a nice desert scene in deepest africa, with a herd of rhinos standing around, with a gazelle leaping through the middle, kicking them in the face (Chris's jaw will never be the same again!) holding the ball aloft over its head, just out of reach of the rhinos, and running like buggery around the plain; if you can imagine that, then you can imagine what the semi final of this rugby 7s thingy looked like!! never mind, we screamed ourselves hoarse nevertheless, and 'oooooo'd' and 'ahhhhhh'd' every time someone got a ball/fist/hoof to the face!
Fight count = 1 (powelly kicking off against some guy from the 'rheidol steamers' causing the ref to call off the already violent match in exasperation)
Comedic accident count = 1 (chris stamping on his own leg in the style of a dog, when it bites its own tail believing it to be the tail of another dog)
Ice cream count = 1 (after we flagged down an ice cream van and made him stop for us! i had a 'festival' after i got over the shock, as back in the day they were called 'feast' i almost didnt get one out of protest at the stupid name change, but i gave in in the end, fickle old me)
I am now employing all my willpower to try and rid myself of this sunburn before the weekend (its ages away, and plenty of time for the burn to go away you may think, but my body conspires to ruin my life quite regularly, so knowing my luck, my face will start to peel or something equally horrendous on the day of the may ball)
I am battling with my stupidity this week, to try and work out how to pre register myself for the third year of my course, whilst trying to read the book my essay has to be written on, oh, and i have to actually write the essay by this friday - good luck me!!
Click on the pic to see the monkeys in all their glory!!
Back row (l-r) Powelly, Tim, Pete, Tom B, Chris, Nick
Front row (l-r) Rich, Tom P, Spex, Dave, Ginger Mat, Hanson matt April 06 Easter!'lo it is the easter holdiays at last, and it as boring as i foresaw!
my week so far has consisted of me sitting on my arse, alternating between E4 and living TV!! i have become unhealthily obsessed with 'beauty and the geek' 'average joe:the joes strike back' and my old obsession with 'americas next top model' has been rekindled!!!
beauty and the geek - its about a group of so-called geeks (in reality, only half of them are what i would classify as a geek, the other half are simply intelligent!) and they get paired up with a group of air head strippers/hairdressers and they program entails the hilarity that follows these mismatched pairs. Compelling becuase you hate the women for being so beautiful, and you find a strange affection for geeks being kindled in your hearts, at which point you turn over for 'average joe'!
how long will it take for the bloody stupid girl to realise that the models may be pretty, but they are soooo vain, whereas the joes are really quite sweet!! once again, the woman featured is unattainably beautiful - as are the ones in 'americas next top model' so I await my return to Aberystwyth, which will thrust me back into the realms of normal looking women with more than 5% body fat!!!!
as you can tell, my holiday so far has revolved around the sky box! as the second week of holiday starts, i may endeavour to drag myself out of the house and show my pasty legs some sunlight, which i will hope in vain will go brown, but i know they will go red, and that will lead me to spend the third week of my holidays inside, hiding my sunburn from any extra UV light, which will again mean i will be worshipping the TV, with its make over shows, and abundance of Wade Robson!! (hes been sheared now, and with his baldy head, is looking increasingly like Shayne Ward of XFactor fame!)
March 28 yay!!well ive finished my portfolio at last, and im fully expecting it to turn out to be a steaming pile of turd, but ive gone past the point of caring right now - im just glad to have gotten it done!!
i went to see a scary film at the union last night called 'the exorcism of mary rose' and im pretty sure it would have been really good if the screen wasnt too dark to make out the detail ... and if there wasnt annoying subtitles on ... and if i wasnt in a god awful plastic chair ... the list goes on! It was an ok film though - one of those ones that scares the shit out of you in the cinema, but when you convice your friends/family to rent it when it comes out, is thoroughly disappointing, leading them to believe you are insane for being scared of such a lame film!!!
well its easter next week, and im prepared for it to be the most boring 3 weeks of my young life so far! i will be bumming around doing nothing (which is basically what i do in uni, buts its funner doing nothing here than at home!) and i cant even have my old job back, becuase there has been an influx of polish people to Bridgend, and they have taken my damn job! ohh if only i was prepared to work for £1.50 an hour i could have my job back!
i suppose i have the magical weekend of easter to look forward to, not the easter when jesus came back to life, but the joke-easter where we get to gourge ourselves on eggs made of second rate chocolate!
March 26 question!in my many hours of essay avoidance, one unanswered question (maybe unanswerable) has kept popping up in my mind - and it goes as follows:
i have a candle in a glass bowl that i burn, and the wax cant go anywhere, as its all contained in this bowl, yet there is hardly any of it left - the wick is nearly at the bottom of the dish. now here is my connundrum - does wax evaporate? it couldnt have escaped any other way - if it has evaporated, is there little particles of wax floating around in the air? if there is, surely that cant be healthy!
you can tell ive been bored senseless! if you have any ideas about this mysterious disappearing wax, id be more than glad to hear them! March 17 check this out!hey! It is truly indicitive of my childish mind, that Ive spent the last 3 days since i bought this fruit juice, staring at the segment of tangerine in the top left corner of the carton! Anyone else think it looks slightly less than innocent??
(click on the pic to make it bigger fools!!) March 11 peace man!hey! havnt updated for a while, but had a great time the other night at a friends 20th birthday pub crawl! It was fancy dress, and i was a hippy! peace dude!! check out the pics!! Oh another thing, our mascot for the night was a butternut squash named wilson! (I think he is in most of the pictures we took that night)
I would like to say thank you to the random strangers we got to hold wilson, while we took pictures of them - and also a big thank you to the guys who let us disturb their pool game, so we could get a pic on the pool table!)
i went to see 'walk the line' last night, and i knew nothing much of johnny cash before i saw it, and had never particularly been a fan of his, but the film was Brilliant - the best one ive seen in ages! And yes, i did cry like a baby during most of the scenes between him and his bastard of a dad!
On the off chance that any of you have a working mobile phone that you just dont happen to want any more, I will be more than happy to provide a 'take your mobile for free' service, coz my phone breathed its last a few days ago, and i am now phoneless, and it sucks! how did we all manage before the internet, mobile phones, sky Tv ..... March 03 argh! culture!seeing as im an english student, i think i should at least try an educate you all, so heres a poem we did in my lecture today - i dont normally like feminist poetry much, but theres something about this one that i really quite like!
Carol Anne Duffy 'Standing Female Nude'
six hours like this for a few francs.
belly nipple arse in the window light,
he drains the colour from me. further to the right,
madame. and do try to be still.
i shall be represented analytically and hung
in great museums. the bourgeoisie will coo
at such an image of a river whore. they call it art.
maybe. he is concerned with volume, space.
i with the next meal. your getting thin,
madame, this is not good. my breats hang
slightly low, the studio is cold. in the tea leaves
i can see the Queen of England gazing
on my shape. magnificent, she murmers,
moving on. it makes me laugh. his name
is Georges. they tell me hes a genius.
there are times he does not concentrate
and stiffens for my warmth.
he possesses me on canvas as he dips the brush
repeatedly into the paint. little man,
youve not the money for the arts i sell.
both poor, we make our living how we can.
i ask him, why do you do this? because
i have to. theres no choice. dont talk.
my smile confuses him. these artists
take themselves too seriously. at night i fill myself
with wine and dance around the bars. when its finished
he shows me proudly, lights a cigarette. i say
twelve francs and get my shawl. it does not look like me.
well there we go children, thats our lesson in the feminist poetry of Carol Anne Duffy!
March 02 never ending stupidnesswell i thought id update you on the stupid thing that i did today! (i tend to do a lot!)
i had two really heavy bags of food shopping, and got on the bus, and everything was fine and happy, i started walking down the aisle to get off the bus, and heard a bang, and assumed id hit something with my bags, and was like 'i hope it wasnt a big scary person!' haha and carried on going, and as i got out of the bus, i heard another bang, and was like 'jesus, these bags are out of control!!!'
anyway, i got home and as i started to unpack i noticed a big rip along the bottom of one of my bags, and was like, thats strange, and didnt think anything of it
i sat down and started watching this morning, and after about 10 minutes it dawned on me that i didnt remember unpacking my yoghurt, or my spaghetti hoops!! (such a classy taste in food haha) and then it dawned on me again just WHY i couldnt remember unpacking them, so i put my shoes back on and ran back to the bus stop, and there, sitting ontop of the drain at the side of the road was my bloody yoghurt! yes, i had indeed been dropping food out of the rip in my bag!!
well, i recovered the youghurt, but im afraid the tin of spaghetti hoops (and probably some other junk that i cant remember buying!) is lost forever on the number 501 bus!! i bet someone saw me drop it and picked it up after id gone! goddam students!
i wanted those spaghetti hoops too
 ouchiewell i just managed to fall down the stairs whilst completely sober! haha, well i more fell OFF them than DOWN them - i was on my way up, and about 2 or 3 steps up my fone went off, so i turned to go back down, and turned funny on my ankle, and fell like a sack of spuds!!!
carpeted floors, bare knees and heavy falls do not mix very well!!!
you know how you fall, and think, shit this is gonna hurt, but for a split second after youve landed you cant feel anything, and think, phew! but then the pain hits you like a sledgehammer??!!
well thats what happened to me haha but its 1 in the morning so i couldnt swear profanely, as i was tempted, so i limped off to my room whilst fighting back tears (hahaha im such a baby) so im now the proud owner of two heavily carpet-burned knees!! lucky me eh??!!!
well like i said, its 1am and i have a 9 oclock seminar tomorrow, so im off!!! (you know when you hurt yourself, and it wont feel better until youve told as many people as possible?? haha thats what im doing!!)
ciao!!!! March 01 damn lent!well its the first day of my resolution to give up alcohol for lent!
Im off to reload at the student union later, and due to the lack of alcohol to make me merry, i have purchased lots of coke and red bull and mini eggs, to try and give myself a suger high instead hahaha sorry to be soppy, but i wont need that much sugar, as ive been really happy lately anyway, due to a certain guy
 ive not much else going on at the mo, but ive done 700 words of my essay!! woohoo only 1800 left!!! (you wont believe how long it took me to work out what 2500 minus 700 was!!!)(im a firm advocate of the belief that theres no need for most people to be able to mental arithmetic becuase thats what CALCULATORS are for!!!)
February 28 im in!well at long last, i know where im living next year! i got an offer of a house in the student village! theres a few adverts for houses in town that sound realllly tempting, but ive had so much shite off the landlord and his agency this year, that i cant wait to move out of private accomodation! its gonna be soooo nice not to have to worry about running out of gas all the time, because we havnt topped up the meter!
i woke up this morning to hear what i thought was rain battering my window, which really didnt do much for my resolve to get out of bed and go to lessons! but when i threw back my curtains it turned out to be snow!!! yay!!! it looked like christmas!! only none of it was sticking, but that doesnt matter!!
the novelty wore off a bit when i had to walk to my lecture hall though, and the snow was going in my eyes, and was sticking to my top making it wet and freezing!! but who cares, its snow! it makes me feel like a child again!!
global warming my arse! this time last year, i remember it was warm, because its saint Davids day on the first of march, and i explicitly remeber having a daffodil picked for me last year, which i kept in my room, and i also remember that they had been out for a few weeks before hand - this year, theres no sign of them, and we are having sub zero temperatures and snow!!!
i think tjhat we, the unsuspecting public are being kept in the dark about the fact that we are intering the start of the next ice age!!! ive seen the film, all we need now is to emmigrate south, and find ourselves a squirrelly thing that chases an acorn its never going to catch!!!
i joined the national library of wales yesterday!!
i am now the proud owner of a card that states my name to be Lara!! i was a bit annoyed at this common mistake, but when i arrived home and wrote my name out for my housemate Shelley to inspect, we came to the conclusion that in my childlike writing, my Cs do actually look a lot like Ls (according to Shelley, its something to do with my 'slanty' writing!!)
i felt sorry for the guy who was in the queue in front of me, trying to join, because he was foreign, and when the lady was telling him where to go next to complete his registration, the look of horror on his face she went 'you go down here, then left, then left again, then through the doors, then up the stairs then right ... yadda yadda yadda'
hahaha well, he left looking more than a little bemused, and the lady looked at his registration form, and went to me 'awwwww hes Slovakian' as if it were a disability or something!!!! (i took a disliking to her after she got my name wrong, and neglected to tell me the password that i need to use to get onto their computer systems!)
well anyway, all is good, and i need to go back there today, as the essay that i thought was due in 2 weeks yesterday, is actually due in one week yesterday!! so i need to work my backside off!!
heehee i was watching this morning earlier and there was this dude on there from this show in the US that is a reality show, like the salon, that features around a tattoo parlour, and its called 'miami ink' and phil schofield, that wily old silver haired fox, went 'i think a better name would be pimp my hind!!' and in his typical fashion fell about laughing, while the guest sat there with a completely blank look on his face!!
right-ho im off to do a bit of reading, and then brave the snowy walk to the library to research Edmund Spenser's Faerie Queene (if any of you happen to know anything about its portrayal of heroism, id be more than delighted if you would enlighten me!!!)
February 25 oi kris!kris, if youre reading this, wheres that bleeding DVD you said you were going to post to me??!! i havnt forgotten you know!!! at the risk of sounding like a stereotypical sister, ill tell mum!!!!!! hahahaha
well ive decided what im giving up for lent!! and its going to be the old alkihol!! i considered giving up chocolate (after half arsedly giving up my other vice, cheese) but i know i wont be able to do that, coz ive got suuuuch a sweet tooth, so theres no point even pretending that i could give it up!! alcohol would be a happy compromise then, because not only am i too tight to buy it, but after ive given it up for a while, i should be back to my cheap-date status, and be able to get drunk off hardly anything!!!
ooooo microsoft and toshiba are conspiring to drive me insane!
i KNOW i downloaded a song i like off my friend the other day, but not only has my computer hidden it somewhere unreachable, its also claiming ignorance when i try to use the 'search all files' function!! i know its there goddam microsoft!!! Its times like this that make me realise films like 'I Robot' could be reality, because my laptop is already disobeying me, and doing what it bloody well likes!!
its only a matter of time before it bands up the other computers of Aberystwyth and goes on a killing rampage or something!
In my seminar the other day, we did a bit of art appreciation, and were looking at paintings of Venus and Mars (the Gods, not the planets!) and the was one by raphael or some other bloody artist, that had them both lying in a field, knackered out, in post orgasmic bliss, and the tutor said that the cherubs in the background of it, were laughing at Mars coz he was knackered, and 'couldnt get it up anymore'!!! now, to a girl who is still at the stage where she has to catch herself to stop referring to her tutors as 'sir' any mentionings of sex by them throws me just a little!! Ahhh, im just too polite for my own good (haha yeh right)
I was on the bus on the way home tonight, about 6ish, and the last girl to get on the bus at the stop asked the driver if he could wait 5 minutes for her to finish her fag!!! When he said no, she went off into this Vicki pollard from little britain style rant about how dare he tell her she cant smoke, she may only be fifteen, but she has the right to what she wants! now, if i was the driver, id have shut the door in her tracksuit-wearing, flourescently made up, acne riddled face!!! but nooo, he humoured her for a while and said thats not what he meant, and that he just wouldnt wait for her, and i was like 'helllooooo mr bus driver, what do you think youre doing right now? youve spent 3 minutes talking to her, so are actually waiting for her!!'
but anyway, she got on with her 3 year old child and an old man who looked like her father, but was blatantly her boyfriend/drug dealer!!!
honest to god, the wierdos you get on buses when it gets dark!! they must wait till the sun sets and then all crawl out of their squats/holes/cardboard boxes, and all storm the bus i happen to be on!! February 23 soooo coooold!!well this post is more of an essay avoidance post, than an 'i actually have something interesting to say' one!!
After employing the tactic of ignoring my work and hoping it will go away failed miserably, ive had a panic stircken air about me the last few days, becuase of all the things i need to do!! (which now stands at 5 essays, reading 3 novels, and researching the habits of 5th century Danes!!!)
you know when you are a child, and its cold outside, and you can see your breath in front of you, and pretend to be a train or a dragon or something?? well my room is honest to god so cold, that i can see my breath, and after five minutes of pretending to be a steam train, i got bored and had to put on an exra 2 tops (my top count now stands at 3!) oh, and im in my dressing gown as well!!
so my body is toasty, but my hands are turning blue!! oh the joys of being a student who cant AFFORD to heat their house, becuase of the new heating system their goddamn landlord put in, that was supposed to 'save us money!!'
If youre reading, mr landlord - BOLLOCKS does the new heating system save us money!!
I considered hibernating for the next week, but gullivers goddam travels aint going to read its goddam self!!!!!
argh!!!
ok, rant over, im off to half heartedly try and do some work, before i give up and find another way to distract myself!! (my DVDs aint going to watch themselves!!!!!) February 22 damn freudwell hello there!
ive just finished doing my seminar reading for tomorrow, and have spent the last hour reading an essay by freud, full of crap like how if you dream about a pink flower, then its obviously because you want to have sex with your mother, and have your sister sit on your face!!
hahaha
February 19 eeeaaasyy!!!well i went to see my first ever football match yesterday, and i was impressed haha it was a lot more exciting than i thought it would be!! Plus, as it was my first match, my boyfriend bought me a scarf, and i had some bovril (my tastebuds are still unconscious!!)
due to the pillows on my bed being shite, i had to buy some more this morning, and i got the cheapest ones they had, and as a result, had to get on a relatively full bus trying to hide the name of the pillows, which happened to be 'two big whoppers' hahahahahahahahahahaha im talking 5 inch high, neon lettering, announcing the fact that i had indeed got two big whoppers!
February 13 ahh pooi went all the way into town today with the intention of changing a pair of trousers i bought the other day, but completely forgot to tak them with me! haha so unless i shrink two inches in the next 3 days, and they miraculously start to hang lower than above my ankles, i have to mosey back on down to new look to change them!!
which isnt too bad you think, but im soooooo weak, and i always end up spending loads, even though Aberystwyth is cack for shopping!!
argh - im caught in a vicious circle!!! i bought a smelly candle a week or two ago, and had to buy a lighter to light it (i dont smoke) when my candle had run out of, i dont, candle-ness i suppose, i still had loads of gas left in the lighter, so needed to buy another candle just to use up the gas, but this time the lighter ran out before the candle, so i needed to buy a new lighter, and the aforementioned vicious circle was started all over again!! haha!
my head is hurting! i had two lessons today (wow!! a whole TWO!!!) and the first was on marxism (ouch) and the second on feminism and misogyny (sexism, to the laymans out there
 ) (double ouch) so now i am on strike and am refusing to do anything else intellectual for at least the next 4 hours! oh, and i was intending to read and do work as well! (pffft, yeh right)i ordered some DVDs off Amazon, an age ago, and they seem to be sending them via a Himalayan Shirpah or something, becuase i could honest to god walk to the amazon depot and crawl back in the time that these babies are taking to get here!!!! i got some proper old school ones as well!! including Hook, and Dumb and Dumber!!!!
February 11 woohoo!well i have the top half of my outfit for the 80s do im going to on thursday sorted!! i bought a cheap pink top from peacocks, and set about it with my scissors to make it one of those off the shoulder tops worn in fame and flashdance!!
ive got these cool fishnet fingerless gloves too (not sure if they are 80s, but they look good with my top!) and i have to say it looks kinda cool!! well, it looks cool in the privacy of my own home, i dont know how im going to feel about it all when it comes to actually walking around town!! i suppose ive roamed the streets dressed as a pirate and a cat, so an 80s inspired outfit should be ok!!
i have a disney themed social to go to in the next few weeks too, so am pretty stuck for what to wear - i may recycle my pirate gear and invest in a hook, and go as abu hamza
(haha only joking, i meant captain hook!!)
my parents have bought themselves an all singing all dancing treadmill!! and yes, they did what any self respecting dog owner would do - they put the dog on the to see if he could go for walks by himself!! and the answer is a big fat, resounding, no! haha he couldnt get the hang of moving all his legs on there, so he took to standing on the floor with his back legs, and just placing his front ones on the machine!! haha lazy bloody dog!
Well it's Valentines day on tuesday - It'll be my first with a boyfriend that actually cares about me, so it should be good!!!
(im still going to complain about all the lovey-dovey couples though!! GET A ROOM!!!)
February 09 hey!well i dont have much to say, but i have added some pictures at long last!!!
ive had an awesome-o day actually - it reminded me off the days you would have off school, when you were faking having something wrong with you! the only thing i lacked was a mother to fetch me ice cream for my sore throat (its a remedy i tells you!)
haha, well my day in total went like this - arrived home from town, with random bits of shopping and a 'gladiator chicken baguette' from spartacus (yum yum) at 1 oclockish (after missing a 9 o clock seminar) and i positioned myself on the sofa, with a tv guide, my book of arrow words, the tv controls and my quilt and both of my pillows, and that is where i stayed from the time i got in, until the time eastenders finished at 8pm!! the only times i moved, were for toilet breaks, and to feed myself, which was quite often, coz ive had the munchies today!!
ohhhhh, im kinda glad i was on my own for most of it, because i was watching des and mel today, and daniel odonnell sang eric claptons 'you look wonderful tonight' and it made me cry!! its such a beautiful song!!!
i have to say, the shite they make children watch these days is ridiculous!! during my 7 hours of couch-time earlier, i had to endure an hour and a half on childrens TV and it was sooooo cack!! the only kids cartoon thats anygood these days (wow, i sound like an old woman!) is the fairly odd parents!! haha i love it sooooooo
ooooo i got some new thingys for my wall earlier!! they are postcards that have cartoon sheep on them!!! but they arent just normal sheep, ohhhh no!!
theres one thats got a sheep thats just been sheared, and hes holding a gun, james bond style, and his caption is 'shorn connery' hahahaha
theres 5 altogether, and they are soooo cool, hehe theres another one holding a big heeuge gun, with a khaki headband on, and hes 'RAMbo' hahahaha they were only 16p each too BARGAIN! ohhh this reminds me of when i lived in halls last year, my walls were adorned with postcards!! such a cheap way to decorate!!!
Anyhoo, im off to find me some retro 80s gear for a social im going to on thursday! woohoo cant wait! right, i need bangles, beads, leg warmers .......
(but first)
It’s late in the evening She’s wondering what clothes to wear She puts on her make up And brushes her long blonde hair And then she asks me Do I look alright And I say yes, you look wonderful tonight We go a party And everyone turns to see This beautiful lady That’s walking around with me And then she asks me Do you feel alright And I say yes, I feel wonderful tonight I feel wonderful Because I see the love light in your eyes And the wonder of it all Is that you just don’t realize How much I love you It’s time to go home now And I’ve got an aching head So I give her the car keys She helps me to bed And then I tell her As I turn out the light I say my darling, you were wonderful tonight Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight
awwwwwwww lovely song |
