Oblivion

This blog WAS going to be a lovely little update on the things I've done since Tuesday (working on ideas for our sculpture project, seeing Inglorious Basterds and cuddling my boyfriend).

THEN it was going to be about how much I LOVE the Student Breakfast show podcasts, I mean, really. They make me laugh many times.

Also, I was going to include how the game Oblivion has changed my opinion on computer games.

BUT I new want to rant.
I was tired yesterday, very tired, but being a person who knows she won't sleep at night if she takes a nap I stayed awake til a reasonable time.

Around 10pm, over in Fylde they started playing music.

NOW, this wouldn't be a problem usually, I live in Bowland but last night we decided to stay in James' room. This proved to be intensely a bad decision.

At 10.10pm (which admittedly isn't too late) SOMEONE (*cough* Kelsey) started playing some horrendous noises out of what I can only assume was her laptop because it was Spotifyed with adverts.
Not music AT ALL, just that repetitive shite at full blast.

After about half an hour the people involved in whatever celebration was going on went into town.

Sleep commenced UNTIL half past THREE in the morning, when the music restarted at the same crazy level.

Until SIX THIRTY there continued to be sounds of incredible intensity including shouting, swearing and screaming and listening in on the RUBBISH that drunk people say and laugh at.

James and I were NOT entertained.

At least today I will get to relax AND have a lovely (I hope) meal with James and his parents.

Oh and QI is back and David Mitchell made it amazing!

Ollivander

I once had this AMAZING idea for a fanfiction which was entirely Draco centric and he would go to repent to Ollivander for the whole cellar thing by going off on an adventure to collect wand wood and cores and then learning the business so he could take over from a dying Olli.
It would be SO GOOD if only I had more than just that to work with and a bit of like, time.

I don't even find the time to record all the awesome sauce things I get up to on a day by day basis.

Like going to see all the films I've seen, sitting and playing Oblivion with James, all the awesome ridiculous times I drop Dr.Who references into conversations to hope that someone gets them.

(ERIN DID, about the little shop in the hospital!!)

OH YEAH

We're doing this project in Art now about sculpture and we're going to build a city!

And it's going to be totally awesome.
I just want to sit and plan it out and research for it and make it great and accurate and all that but I have two sodding psychology hours today that totally break it up and spoil it!

:p

I want to go to the charity shop on campus to get some trees for it or something!

In other news, just in case you were wondering, James and I are FANTASTIC!

SQUEE

S'all for now.

(Should I try to do BEDD?)

On the good ship lollipop

This morning I awoke and, when I finally got around to going in the kitchen, was shocked and appalled to find it covered in yoghurt and cream.

Eurgh.

I've been working on a psychology lab report thing and I'm so disenchanted.
Analysis of statistics by themselves is terribly dull but when you didn't even choose the data yourself it makes it many many times worse.

The other night we watched The History Boys with the SSAGO film night, it was epic AND they ordered a cheeseless pizza (with chicken and peppers and onions) so that I could join in. :p

James and I have finished the first season of Black Books and were going to watch the second last night but the DVD wouldn't work, it just froze at 8 seconds into the intro to the first episode.

Bed times.

We watched Anchorman instead.

Tonight is District 9.

I adore my life so much but right now I just feel floppy, ready to collapse.
I feel like hibernating.

Can I do that?

Oh gosh

SO

On Wednesday I got to London Euston and hopped on the tube to the Saatchi gallery that I went around by myself because Alex was running late due to ChartJackers last minute videoing.

I sat and ate an apple on the steps and watched some kids play hockey.

I met up with Alex and we discussed many musical projects while we gallivanted through a very arty area and we went to "The White Cube" and eventually the Tate Modern.

The best thing at the Tate was 30 pieces of silver by Whiteread.

Alex bought a make-a-robot kit for Johnny too.

We went for subway (my first ever) and that was epic.

Then we headed back to Alex's where we talked to his Mum, listened to him play some new songs AND made the robot which took two hours. I was allowed to listen to Painfully Mainstream through and I have to say it is an epic example of awesomesauce.

Thursday was an amazingly tiring day that started with bacon sandwiches, shopping for fruit and Russell Brand lols.

It went on to include many ChartJackers moments including the 5:19 show.

Burgers in St. Pancras were awesome and much desired.

I fell asleep on the train after finishing reading The Catcher in the Rye.

Home at last.

I had a day of art galleries with Mum followed by going to see Footloose at the theatre.

Saturday was Embroidery, food with Maddy and Jen, video editing, going to see the lights and a short stint out with some friends in town.

Sunday I came home to Uni, had lunch out with the rents and James and a BBCiPlayer afternoon.

In the evening we went to see Time Traveller's Wife which was awesome and then we watched the new Dr. Who special.

XD

*yawn*

On an adventure

I'm writing this at 7:16am.
Wednesday morning.

Soon enough I'm going to be checking over my bags (tbh I'm travelling light) and leaving my room.

I'm getting a train to London, meeting up with Alex and going to look at art galleries because that is the point of this week.

I've promised myself I'm going to have a mega super awesome happy fun time.

Alas I'm still feeling pretty ill and my cough hasn't gone away.
THIS SHALL NOT SPOIL MY DAYS.

I'm going to be honest here and say that until Sunday is going to be damn difficult for me on the whole "being away from James" front.
*huggles*

I might tweet about some events but most likely things that occur will show up in video form.

Kay, going to set this to post as a surprise later.

Of All Things

If you do NOTHING else today buy this song:

ChartJackers - I've Got Nothing - http://bit.ly/3YfoN0

SEVENTY NINE PEE

All going to Children in Need and I've had the song on repeat and it's actually so addictive.

SO, that Chocolate night was a bit of a fail to be honest on the food front.
Furness were supposed to have chocolate coins but didn't, Cartmel had marshmallows.
Lonsdale were supposedly boiled sweets but also didn't have any out.

Before we went out James and I went to his friend Chris's room and I learned that I am an epic fail at Halo on the xbox. James played the guitar pro intro music and how we giggled.

After the failed chocolate hunt we watched a tv show about black holes where even the experts didn't have a clue what they were talking about really.

On Saturday night we went to town to see the fireworks, we got there for 6:20 and stood in the rain and wind until they started at 8. Nearly half an hour of FANTASTIC fireworks though.

That night I was in bed and asleep by 9:30!

Yesterday morning I watched the old American Top Gear episode with the road kill cow on the car.

I felt dead ill around lunch time and spent most of the day in bed.

James came over for cuddles and we watched the Matrix, ate soup and followed it with a TV show about 00's.

Sleep was gooood last night.

Today was mostly sleep food and a bit of sorting out for London.
Oh and a sexy mac video.

S'all.

I'm off to watch a documentary soon. About ice or something.

Obligatory Apology

I kind of hate that I haven't written in here but, you know, the funny thinga are funny and the annoying things annoying and sometimes I don't want to just write about them, I just want to live them.

This morning we were drawing outside. It was fairly cold.

I'm currently listening to a Luke Conard song, it's beautiful.

Last night we went to see Bruno. What a film... Hilarious and highly risque.

Earlier during the day there was this moment where James made us chase this really slow walking pigeon.

:D

Eeeerm.

The other nights we've watched Mean Girls... and Black Books.

Tonight there is a different free chocolate bar in each of the bars on campus, I think a huge bag will be required.
Oh, I found out it probably isn't free. We'll go along anyway to see!

I played a game of Monopoly this afternoon and FAILED MISERABLY.

Never mind, I have The Hunger Games to read and it's fantastic!

Orrite

I spent a lot of time watching things on iPlayer yesterday while I caught up with work.
We also went to the pub quiz of the eve.

Today I had my art lecture, filmed my sexymacaroni video and headed over to art.
I need some sort of turps to clean brushes from oil paint... before I start to use it because I carried over another box of paint today and then just sat and read.

I talked to three of the other girls and then headed over to the Roundhouse where I messed around on photoshop for 2 hours.

Since then I've eaten and played cards.
Oh and emailed some friends that I've needed to email for a fair while!

Coco Before Channel seemed longer than it's 1hr 40. It was good though.

Tiredness is striking me down.

October is Over

It's raining a LOT right now.
James it supposed to out rowing from 10...
Eeep.

Anyhoozle.

Friday afternoon was spent with me reading a Psychology/Statistic textbook and then eating and then running through the rain to James' room with ice cream and Look Around You 2.

Saturday was my attempt to get more work done but it didn't go to plan when instead I edited together my Hazelizabeth video and talked to Hazel over msn.

James' parents came up to take him shopping and we ended up going out for a meal again in the late afternoon.

That left just enough time to watch a couple of videos and then head out to the LU cinema to watch Transformers 2.
It was an ok way to spend Halloween seeing as I was SO tired.
Though I sort of wish I'd been in London it was just great to crash out after the film and lie there sleeping.

This morning I need to KNUCKLE DOWN and get this essay written.

I'll do it, I promise, after I've caught up on the blogs I follow.

:D
