Another Week, Another Lack Of Work!

Sooo, once again it has been a whole week since I last wrote anything! As I explained to Sarah earlier, I like to think that this is to be routine, but in reality it's because I forget!
So, what has happened since last Tuesday you may ask, nosey bastards!
A lot and not much would be the more than confusing answer. Allow to extend this in a long winded and pretty unexplainitory fashion!
Since last Tuesday, my social life has been nice and busy. Wednesday I went to see my mate Nelson, who is also a student at Loughborough, but is one of my best mates from home. Had an interesting evening, which mainly consisted of talking to his friends, non of which I had met before, but were all very nice. Interspersed with the random dialogue was the watching of scrubs and many episodes of 'Whose Line Is It Anyway?' (Funny show ever!)
Thursday was my hectic Uni day, with 4 straight hours in the morning, followed by me sleeping and missing my 4pm lecture. This was OK as it is easy to catch up! Thursday night was pretty much carnage. The hall in which I live was having it's Valentine's Ball, which I was not attending. Instead, me and a friend of mine, Robbie, who is on my course, in my halls, and generally a good mate, decided to go the watch everyone else leave for the ball, which turned out to be very depressing. Seeing everyone all dressed up while we looked like a couple of hobbo's wasn't great! So we had a couple of beers and played a bit of pool, and planned our own night out in the happening town of Lufbra!
This involved getting very drunk and titting around! Always fun in my book!
So we come to Friday, my day off. I had big plans for doing mucho project work. This never happened. I collected my first semester module marks in a horrible state (for reference I got 56%, 60%, 60% and 66%) I was very pleased with the results, although I could not shake the horrible thought in my head that it will ll count for nothing if I don't get my arse in gear with my project!
Saturday was hockey and going to my Brother's house and watching films with his housemates.
Sunday, I went for lunch with Nelson and his parents, who kindly invited me along and payed for my food! It was a very nice meal and good fun! Spent the rest of Sunday sat in one of Nelson's friend's room, Coco, watching random stuff on the web, whilst everyone else got stoned! (Tut Tut)
Monday = Sleep and a 2pm lecture, followed by intentions of work, which were replaced with going to see Spongebob Squarepants in Leicester with another mate Dan, another friend fom home who is at Uni in Lufbra (well, he is on a Industrial placement, which also happens to be near Lufbra!)
Tuesday, today, has invovled me sleeping, doing a bit of project work, starring out of my window at the random weather (Hail, Snow and Bright sunshine, all with 30 minutes, repeated throughout the day!) I also had a tutorial at 4pm about materials used in sports related clothing, and then I have been writing this!

So, there is another week summarised.
Even if it is a boring read, if has entertained me for a while!
Enjoy your next week, unless I manage to write earlier!

Much Love

24! Oh My Golly Gosh!

Bonjourno!
Has been a week since I last wrote anything, my reasons for this being many. I have been drunk, ill, sporting and just played pissed off this week, hence the lack of posts!
Pretty much my week consisted of going to all my lectures, going to Nottingham with 2 mates, Rob and Ali, getting drunk on Tuesday and Friday nights, and feeling ill Thursday thru Saturday morning (I too asked the question of why I went out on Friday night?!?!)
Uni isn't too bad at the moment, I haven't had the best results for coursework, and I find out my exam results this Friday, but I am looking to try hard in all my modules this Semester. Only real downer for me, apart from a couple of horrific coursework marks, is that I am struggling to get going on my Individual project. Being ill at the end of last week didn't help the process, but I still find it hard to motivate myself.
Also started watching series 3 of 24 on Sunday afternoon. Finished it about an hour ago! A bit slowly than the 19 hours that I watched series 2 in a couple of weeks ago (I know, doesn't quite add up!)
24 really is a quality show, with so many twists and turns, it just keeps you watching! Not so good for the degree though!

Anyway, with it being almost 1am, and me planning on getting up at 9 to get some much needed planning and work done, I suppose I should go to bed!

Quick note to say welcome back to Sarah, hope ya had a good time in Wrexham, also hello to my big Bro David, hope you got Unigraphics to work for ya!

Lectures? We Have Them Here?

First Monday of my final Semester at Uni! Sounds scary, but I try not to think about it. Had a whole 1 lecture today! And it was at 2pm! As I write this I am also writing a letter of complaint to the University about my stupidly packed timetable and all these early starts!
Anyway, as you can gather my timetable isn't too hectic! I have 5 hours on a Thursday, but then I have Friday's off! Of course I am meant to fill all of these empty gaps with work on my final year project. 20 hours a week? They're having a Giraffe!
Worst bit about all of this final year project stuff is that when I think about how much work I have to do it is quite menacing! I am going to have to have a meeting with my project supervisor this week to try and get me on track. The fact that I saw him in week 4 of my first semester and then didn't again probably hasn't helped me much.
Anyway, I am going to watch a film now I think, work to do tomorrow, but with no lectures (my only tutorial is off because we have had a lecture to learn anything yet!) there isn't a rush for me to get up!
Gonna spend some more time playing my new Basketball game too, quite addictive, as I have found for most of today!!

Two Down, One To Go.... But Will The Liver Survive?!?!

Well, after my presentation on Wednesday I started drinking. And to my knowledge I have either been sleeping or drinking from that point onwards! Started well on Wednesday, did my presentation, which can be summed up as 'I talked, they listened, they told me where I had gone wrong, I agreed, with the knowledge that I no longer cared!'
So after finally finishing Semester 1, it was time to get trashed! Drinking was fun, don't remember to much, which I always consider good, although I did kick a pint of piss at someone in my bloke! There fault for pissing in a pint glass!!!
Didn't wake up for hours on Thursday, then went out again, slightly later this time, only leaving my room at gone 10pm!
Went to Rock Night at the Union, where a good time was had by one and all (apart from the 2 blokes who looked slightly worried and left pretty sharpish after I had a quiet word about their attempts to molest one of my friends Sarah! Apoligies to Niall if you read this, didn't mean to step on your toes mate!)
Anyway, it is now Friday, I am dong nothing after getting up at 12. Just waiting for stuff o happen, but until it does, seated I will remain!

They Think It's All Over! Well.... It Is!

THANK GOD!!!
As of 2:25pm today I have finished Semester 1! Took long enough!
After not posting for a while due to actually having to do some work for my multitude of exams, I thought that now would be a good time to write something!
So what have I been up to. Revision, ummmmm, revision, ummm, oh yeah writing and doing a presentation!
What fun!
Well it is over now, after a nasty week of near endless work, and no sleep monday night due to revision, I can finally say that it is over! Has it all been worth it? God No!
But at the very least I may be able to get some sleep tonight, even if it is due to passing out through alcohol consumption!
I can't do worse than my sleeping this week, totalling 4 hours since sunday!
Anyway, now that it is all over, I am going to drink and sit around, WITHOUT FEELING GUILTY!!! YAY
