Dan_Dare Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 that sucks dude lazy day today. Hangover from last night is mild, if a touch persistent. I think a cuppa is in order. last night was good, but it kind of reinforced some shitty cold reality on me. One of the girls on my course was out and despite wishing otherwise, it's clearly not going to happen with her, far as I can tell. Still- house party tonight. sexy poshos in to languages and yoga abound. It could be worse :p
Paj! Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 I'm too popular :P. One of my besties will meet me in town for an hour or so, which will be nice, but then another friend texted saying she's down, and we all have to go to the most expensive, snobby-yet-common club around. I have no money to spend on shit like entry fees when I'm not even going to be drinking, I won't be missed by most people there If I don't go since It's a club, I Don't Feel Like Dancin' and yeah. I prefer my college friends to half the people that'll be at this club. Another good friend is back up from london but having her thing in some pub really out of the way of everything, so I'm dealing with not seeing her. I also see her group of friends all the time anyway. But bestie friend obviously wants to go to the club, as he knows the people there and he worships the girl who's "thing" it is. But...it's like she's hired out the club. Randoms will still be there. UGH. I hate. I preferred when we weren't 18 and had excuses for not going to places. Chairdriver was right all along.
SPAMBOT4000 Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 (edited) Last night was funny. Me, my dad and his partner got through 6 bottles of red between us... Fair to say we were a bit hungover this morning. Made a nice difference us all LOLing away together, usually it's just awkward conversation and silences. Today has been meh - wasted day though I did buy a couple of pumpkins to carve tomorrow. Tonight... Well I really need to get out but noone seems to want to do anything. It's getting really lonely at the moment not having a job or much to do in the days so I live for the weekend. Also all my mates live about an hours drive away so don't really see anyone other than my dad in the week. Half tempted to go out on my own, least that way I have to man up and talk to randoms. Though I'd probably need alcohol to fuel such confidence. With me living in the middle of nowhere that's not an option as I'd have to drive back home. Doh. Anyone live Cornwall way going out that doesn't mind a randomer tagging along?! That is how desperate I am to get out tonight! Sad times in both senses of the word.

Slaggis Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 Last night was tons of fun. Went clubbing with Razz and some friends, and had a brilliant time. Though, the presence of stalker-boy really was terrifying when under the influence. Today's been spent either sleeping or watching Come Dine With Me...before going back to sleep for a bit. Amazing. Now an evening of cheap red wine and X-Factor awaits.
Chris the great Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 ended up spending my day off seeing triangle. unfortunatly, i could not arrange to be raped instead. that would have been less painfull.
ReZourceman Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 I can't. Stop. Coughing. Epic FFS annoying. Today has been me slowly writing a design document for concept class. I don't not enjoy writing (lol, I used a double negative while talking about writing), but it's a slow process when you're trying to make sure your lecturer won't think it's crap or get the wrong idea about it while reading the doc. Also, it's a weekend, which means X Factor? While I'm working Facebook is a distraction and it's disappointing to be distracted by boring updates. I issued this update in advance of the onslaught: "Wesley Mackinder - Oh shit, it's the weekend. Which means I have to put up with constant status updates about some shit talent show? Please people, think twice about status updates: It can destroy lives. ...well, not lives, just my respect for you.". Apologies if this has already been said. Also its a little old now. Terrorists have threatened Louis Walsh that for each week The Twins stay in the competition, a member of Boyzone will be killed.
Ganepark32 Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 (edited) Rained for most of the bloody day up here. Not nice. Couldn't be bothered to brave the weather so stayed in and did some prelim work for my next English essay, which I'm actually really excited about as I feel I can make a damn good essay out of the question I've chosen. Did a bit of writing for a review which I need to send off, although there seems to be a lack of movement from the guy that posts them. Don't know whats going on there, whether he's trying to post more of his reviews so it doesn't look like I'm doing all of them or something. Got money burning a hole in my pocket. There's stuff I'd like to buy but there's also a person I'd like to spend it on other than myself so don't know whether to wait and see if said person is available to go out next week or not. edit: Score! Truman Show is on shortly. That's something to look forward to. Edited October 24, 2009 by Ganepark32
Wesley Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 Ha! Nice. I've heard that these "twins" are annoying? I've managed to avoid everything X-Factor this year. Quite good. So... on second thought don't actually answer my twins question. After I get this document finished up and the girlfriend comes back from work I hope to have a drink and watch The Office. My day will then be awesome. Oh shi! I forgot. On Thursday the best thing happened. My university has a games studio that acts separately from any courses; but draws in students for a placement year in it (around 8 a year). And my course leader (who is the director of the studio) came up to me and started asking questions about the course. How's it going? Got much work? Got any side projects? And then randomly asked me to help out at the studio! It's obviously unpaid and what have you. But it will look awesome on my CV that I'm sending off to companies for placement next year. There's only one other student who helps out at the studio, and she deals with the management and marketing side of things. So I'm pretty happy.
Gizmo Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 Since my parents have a better scial life than me this evening I am currently subscribing to the Jayseven school of drinking alone. Unfortunately all we have in the house is Tennents which I don't like that much so I fear I may end up unable to get drunk enough to stop caring.
Chris the great Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 been making a spooky level on LBP, got a nice start mapped out, will give the rest some thought tommorow and build the level hopefully in time for halloween! date tommorow, eeek!
Eenuh Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 Today was pretty goooood. Got to stay in bed for agessss. Well had the alarm set for 11 but ended up staying in bed until 12:30 or something. Yay lazy times! =P Rest of the day was spent playing some Brawl with the Jimzor, watching Fox and the Hound and then going to see Massive Attackkkkk! Whoooo! (this was Ine, now Jim is taking over) The day began awesomelyyyyy with a huge sleep in, and then breakfast at dinner time. Breakfast, Dinner, Tea. Three meals of the day. There is no lunch. I owned Ine so hard on Brawl. Today, I felt like Neo from the Matrix...everything seemed to go my way. All the pokeballs, the mushrooms, other items, all fell to meeeeeee. Today was a huge moral victory to me, as she tends to own my arse and then eat it in front of my face. Massive Attack rockeeeeeed! The music was so good, and now I want to go to another gig. It's been a long time since I've been gigging eet up, but now I've caught de Bug. More gigs voor mij, dank u. Ooo, also Ine owned an old man. I proud. (back to her typing) So yesss, we were lining up in some fastfood restaurant place to get some chips, when some older man tries to jump the queue by standing to the side (at the front) where people were ordering. So when it was our turn, he kinda went in front of us and tried to make his order, and I tapped his shoulder and told him something like "I'm sorry sir but it's our turn, you have to go to the back of the queue." He tried to argue by saying he was in front of us, when he was clearly not, and I called him out on that. After a minute he got it and let us order our chips. Bastard. (Back to le Jim) I don't remember her tapping the guy...she was in like a shot! I've never seen a female shoot a guy down so quickly like that. Naturally, I stood there and waited in case he got nasty, but he didn't have a chance in hell. There's one word for Ine's performance: HOT. I never knew she had it in her. (Ine) Me either! Now we're off to watch X-Files. This is a brilliant day. Au revoir, Internet.
Wesley Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 Oooh! Did the cool guy with huge dreadlocks sing at the gig? When I saw them he was wearing what can only be described as space PJs.
Eenuh Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 Oooh! Did the cool guy with huge dreadlocks sing at the gig? When I saw them he was wearing what can only be described as space PJs. Ehhh, he might've been there (I honestly don't really remember seeing anyone with huge dreadlocks myself, but Jim says there was), but he wasn't wearing space PJs haha. But yeah good gig. Took me a few songs to get into it though, since I don't really know too many Massive Attack songs. But after the third song I got more into it and by the end I was loving it. =D (Jim now) There was a dude there who sang some of the songs, wearing a hat, but I do think he could be the one you were referring to as Dreadlock guy. He was cool. It was hard to tell if he had huge locks or not, as it was quite dark. Plus, of course, the hat.
Wesley Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 He has quite an odd high voice if that helps. My day right now: Slowly completing my design doc with finishing off a glass on Pimms. That's right. Pimms!
chairdriver Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 I went to the Fresher's Fling. Loads of free food and sweets, and ridiculously cheap alcohol (3 shots for £1, 2 VK or Becks bottles for £1 - but then I did pay £178 to become a member, so it balances out). I drank quite alot, I'm not going to lie. There was a disco (in the debating chamber), a bucking bronco, a bouncy castle and karaoke. All fine fun, but felt a bit on the shitty side of things. But the people made up for it. Re: karaoke, I'm still clapping. There was this girl, who, when she got up on stage, everyone was collectively like "... she'll be a bit shit.". She was singing All That Jazz from Chicago, and when she began, I was like "Who is this stunner!?" - she had a brilliant voice. And suddenly she became a bit too good. Could have been in the stage show of Chicago - dancing really really well, and accentuated all the words really well, whilst still singing technically brilliantly. And then at the climax of the song, where its like "AND. ALL. THAT. JAAAAAAAZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!", she stamped on a balloon after the THAT, bursting it. Literally sounded like it was supposed to have happened in the song. Actually a stunning experience, I'm not going to lie. Considering I expected shite. But then, all I do at uni is meet people who stun me. The fact I learned the other day that a girl who lives on my staircase used to tour with the National Ballet Academy (or whatever the national group for people great at ballet is called). A bona fide really impressive thing to have done. And I met the second best debater of the European Debating Competition. I'm so relieved that the clocks are going back, because I need the time. I need to do 2 problem sheets tomorrow, both of which I expect to take about 3 hours to do, and I need to start another which has to be handed in on Wednesday morning. I'm finding the workload really stressful - especially since everyone else is taking it in their stride really well. My friend Laura wrote a 2000 word essay today, whilst still socialising, and having fun with me. And apparently this really weird girl I've never spoken to before wrote a 10,000 word essay last week for her English book, and the Tutor was like "I don't have time to read this." I question how people can do so much work, when I have so comparatively little, and still manage to have a crisis the night before stuff has to be handed in.
Frank Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 My day, eh? Well today has been pretty good Playing Zelda: TP for the 2nd time, had yummy coffee and as you may know - no weekend is complete without X-Factor! I know some people hate it but argh! I just love it :P (Go Miss Frank ^.^) On the downside however, I'm lusting after a straight guy in my year of school... This isn't the first time either. It seems my attraction is really on and off with him Why must teenage years be oh so difficult :/
Tellyn Posted October 25, 2009 Author Posted October 25, 2009 (edited) My Dell laptop charger has packed in, so I've been getting my internet fix from my DSi... Anyone know of any stores that sell replacements, or will I have to buy online? In other news I spent the entire day wearing my Scribblenauts hat, and watching Lie to Me, Fringe, the Phantom Menace, and Taken. Productive indeed. Edited October 25, 2009 by Tellyn
Paj! Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 Met people in town was fine. HATE spending money! FUCKING FUCKING. I realised I grudge it cause I never get anywhere near tipsy, BECAUSE my fucking family always feed me a huge dinner before I go out. I need to learn to starve myself. All my money gone to waste. Saw a few stunners. Introduced stunners from my past life to stunners in my current life. Am jealous/depressed by the intimacy of others. It's possibly my own self-loathing.
Molly Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 A hot guy tried to talk to me in the National Gallery coffee shop and I lost the ability to form sentences. I am going to die alone. Anyway. Also inadvertently got caught up in a protest which was fun. Then saw some absolutely stunning art. And some boring/religious art. Came home and had dinner with my cousin and her fiancé. They're so in love. I hate them.

jayseven Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 Normally when I wake up after a night of heavy drinking (read: most mornings) I have that groanful realisation that I'd done something horrendously bad - often in text form. However, this morning I woke up in a caw of shitoshito-- etcetera- start work at 11, right? Woke up at 11.24! Oh yes. Well still, between pulling trouser legs up and buttering cans of red bull and weeing on the sofa, I read my outbox from the night before to find some seriously shocking texts. "You want to fuck?" and; "You only loved me 'til you realised how ugly i was, right?" were just two of them. Shit work, etc, then went to a 'party' (train, tram, bus, walk) which was a cock-fest, where I basically convinced a christian that his 'god' was the same as anyone elses sense of morality (and I genreally acted like a know-it-all to everyone, too), before coming home and... er... continuing with teh drinkzors. I was very, very tempted today to pack a bag and go back to brighton. I also realised that I've not cried in nearly 3 years, despite people dying on me and shit. I think Ineed to cry. Fuck off. Punch you. Where is my mange-el? that sucks dude lazy day today. Hangover from last night is mild, if a touch persistent. I think a cuppa is in order. last night was good, but it kind of reinforced some shitty cold reality on me. One of the girls on my course was out and despite wishing otherwise, it's clearly not going to happen with her, far as I can tell. Still- house party tonight. sexy poshos in to languages and yoga abound. It could be worse :p Seems to be a theme developing; me, you, molly and paj all being crushed by our inabilities to be better, more attractive people. Two new hot girls have started at work! I continue to be ugly. Such is life. We aren't the beautiful people tv says exist. We can't have the hotties. So let's start actually looking sideways, yeah? We're not ugly, we're not idiots, we're not failures at life (well, maybe I am) so we're not the bottom of the barrel. The problem is convincing ourselves that we can be the scum floating at the top of the barrell that the opposite sex wants. Convincing them will be a doddle after that. Since my parents have a better scial life than me this evening I am currently subscribing to the Jayseven school of drinking alone. Unfortunately all we have in the house is Tennents which I don't like that much so I fear I may end up unable to get drunk enough to stop caring. Oi! I do it with skill and buddhist-like greatness. You drink tennent's. Case rested and closed and gone and dusted and fingered and molested and arrested and tried and tested and sentenced and abstained and drawn and quartered and bartered and haggard and blagged and nagged and hassled and tassled and decorated and messed and diseased and blessed and that's it.
ReZourceman Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 I'm seeing my genuinely retarded friend today. Havn't seen him in a while. We are going to Harvester. I plan to have an ice cream sundae.
