This and that

Once again, theres been a huge gap between entries. Largely because I've lost interest half way through writing them, and because very little of interest has happened recently. I've been attempting to knuckle down to work, and failing, but there we go.

The most exciting thing, was my BUNAC interview. I went on Sunday morning, to the Jury's Inn, near the station (which is a really really nice hotel by the looks of it) and talked to a lovely guy called Thomas something. I was surprisingly un-nervous. The night before I was fine, but I assumed I'd get nervous the next day, specially given the last interview I had was the one where I failed to get into Cambridge. Anyway it was so informal, it put you completely at ease, he didn't even bother to shut the door and part way through another candidate actually came in to give a form he was obviously finishing off. Anyway he seemed really positive about it, and I feel it went well. I should find out quite soon if I'm going or not, but not necessarily where I'm going or what I'll be doing. So fingers crossed! So excited.

And other than that very little has happened. My friend Chris is coming to stay tomorrow until thursday which should be a laugh. Not sure what we'll get up to, but its sure to be full of havoc and alcohol.

So what else can I write to fill up this entry. Oh I know, watched Rent again the other day. I fucking love this film. I'm always apprehensive about showing people it, because I think its probably quite a select audience. Its a musical for a start which isn't everyones cup of tea. I'm not sure the main plot themes, of aids, homosexuality, tranvestites and heroin abuse probably help much to expland its fan base. That being said, it does seem to be hugely popular among the people who do love it.

Its adapted originally from the Broadway show, and something like 5 or 6 of the cast are the originals from there. It follows the lives of a group of friends living in New York in the year 1990. The characters are amazing, and I love them all to bits. The songs are fantastic, and get stuck in your head so much. I find it hard to sum up really, its just one of those films I feel a huge rush of emotion for in a scrambled form. It never fails to make me cry as well.

And maybe most importantly, Roger is the spitting image of a young Jon Bon Jovi, what more could you ask for, scenes with him in could quite often be mistaken for a Bon Jovi video at first glance.

I want to be there!

So yeah, if you are a musical fan, watch it now! Even if you're not, probably watch it. I'm apprehensive cos I love it so much I don't want people to hate it. I'm also finally getting to the end of series 2 of lost. Only two episodes to go! I actually had to watch two episodes back to back the other day cos I needed to know what happened. thats the first time probably this series that has happened. And even then it was all solved within the first five minutes of the next episode. Anyway I am curious as to how this series will work out. I think despite my rant, I probably will end up watching series 3. I've had people tell me thats the best series so far as well now. Conflicting advice really doesn't help!

And finally . . . I love Sainsbury's! I just bought two dvds and two cds for £13! Billy Elliot (which I absolutely love to death, it always makes me cry), Shaun of the Dead (which I originally saw instead of going to my year eleven prom), Rihanna's first album, and Jamiroquai's singles album. Bargain and a half!
