A bit of a random one.

So I was originally going to write this last night, but 2 triples and 2 cans of strongbow provided me with more of a challenge to my motor skills than I imagined, I'm becoming a light weight in my old age. In fairness this was probably a good thing, as if I hadn't noticeably been able to feel the effects of alcohol I probably would have done the next day when I reread what I thought was a perfectly coherent blog.

As you may have guessed, I'm back in the gun capital of the UK, and how I have missed it. Its funny last year i was never that desperate to get back to uni, looking back on it, I was surprisingly lonely for great chunks of last year and I didn't really notice except on off days, on which I'd do something radical and go to Oxford for the day (which for anyone planning to do so, isn't such a great idea, I had to get up at 6 and wasn't home til 11, and had to sit on a train back from Birmingham with a whole load of drunk Derby football fans). I think it came from ending a 2 year relationship and then despite having a huge group of friends at university not having one or two close friends. I never realised how important that was until last year, I guess I've always been lucky to have that close friend in my life. Anyway not the case this year! Due to the wonders of Kayleigh! Still got my huge group of friends plus a best friend. Ick how I hate the term best friend. Anyway that was a bit of a detour. Yeh I am so glad to be back, I enjoyed my Easter a hell of a lot but by the last few days I was ready to come back.

Having said that, I haven't been up to much since I got back. Mainly cos this bleeding essay is still hanging over my head. I hate long deadlines, they go on forever and ever and ever and by the end you really just don't care anymore. Still only 1500 words to go now, the end might just about be in sight, I'm hoping to finish it tomorrow, then go and get it bound (yes we have to get it ring bound, how stupid!), and ready to hand in for next Wednesday. So other than that haven't been up to much, obviously went out last night, just a quiet one with Kayleigh and her girlfriend, Shiv, who is lovely, she told me I had good legs, haha. Yeh we went to BZR, which is perhaps my favourite bar in Nottingham, not only do they sell triples for £2.50 (I know!), but I love (as nerdy as it sounds) the architecture, and they normally play amazing music, although I have to say last night was a bit of a let down on that front. But that is DEFINITELY where I'm headed for my 21st next year, I know a bit of forward planning given I'm only 19 still, but I'm not even in the country for my 20th, so its allowed.

Um what else? Well I went to my nine o'clock lecture this morning. Yes I know, congratulate me! Oh on Sunday evening Kayleigh and I did our usual film watching with baileys and ice cream. We watched Hitch, which I had seen before, but couldn't remember particularly well. It has Will Smith in it, doesn't really need anything else. Nice feel good, funny, light hearted film though which was nice. On the film front I also watched Romeo and Juliet on the TV the other day, the Baz Luhrman version, I love love love that film. I'm gonna buy it on Amazon, unfortunately its only £4 so nowhere near the price for free postage and I don't actually want anything else at the moment, although Kayleigh said she wanted something so we might be good.

And yeah I'm gonna leave it at that as I have a seminar to run to. Sorry for the random babblings in this entry!

Read this so I can say you've read my work as I was reading the writing which you've written.
