bob Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Got a Skype call from my sister in Peru to say that she got engaged to her boyfriend in the middle of Lake Titicaca. Which is nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dog-amoto Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Last week staying in Leeds this week. Happy in some ways, but will also miss being here at night. Will also miss having my food paid for every day! After 16 weeks training, finally got to drive a train at full speed yesterday (only 75mph, our trains are shit!) Spent today on a simulator with PS2 style graphics, covering the stuff we wouldn't normally see like obstructions on the line, degraded working due to signal failures etc. Was good to put stuff into practice. In the next few weeks I'll hopefully have an assessment and then be assigned an instructor who I'll need to spend the next six or so months with. Then I'll have my final assessment near Christmas all being well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce_LiNk Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Wanted a hair cut, so popped into town to get it done. A Scottish man was cutting it and we ended up talking about how he was making a graphic novel featuring American celebrities represented by sperm. Nicholas Cage was the hero sperm. I don't even- It was all very surreal. At the end of my cut, he mentioned that I must be a good teacher because I seemed very calm and relaxed. He also asked me, "how many times a day do you get called Tom Daley? You have the same adorable smile." In truth, people have made the comparison before. I don't see it, personally. Not sure if post should be good stuff or random stuff. I think....good. NicholasCageSperm tipped it for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EEVILMURRAY Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 He also asked me, "how many times a day do you get called Tom Daley? You have the same adorable smile." In truth, people have made the comparison before. I don't see it, personally. I can see the smile angle, but the skin colour factor makes the distinction between you two rather easy.

nightwolf Posted May 17, 2014 Author Share Posted May 17, 2014 I found somewhere new to live! It needs to get BT internet (which is upgraded at the end of the month) and parking is a bit weird (got a garage), but it's so lovely and I can't wait. Get the keys the 1st June hopefully. No more dogs or landladies who don't want to fix heating systems - phew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddage Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Grats! Got a month for the show, then a big blow out at Glastonbury festival, then I'll get a job... Or at least start thinking about getting a job A piss of piece? Well it's just talking about the project to s couple of tutors. I seem to be quite good at bullshitting my way through stuff like this and have always had good feedback from presentations/industry liaison meetings.

nightwolf Posted May 24, 2014 Author Share Posted May 24, 2014 Best thing I ever did at university (which frankly was the only good thing) was look for a job just before I left. I found I landed into a job just as I left, whilst my friends spent 6 months unemployed. Be careful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I'd welcome six months unemployed just to recover Don't think I want to go straight into graphic design anyway, might work a shit job for a bit and then do some travelling.

gaggle64 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 (edited) Only one more long week before the slow season kicks in at the store, then I'll finally have some brain space to get some myself together. Until then I'll be having a breakdown in the staff toilet if anyone needs me. Edited May 25, 2014 by gaggle64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
