DomJcg Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 /Blanket Post Well it's a long story that all started with a letter. Over a year ago I received a letter from my university congratulating me on my marks and wanting me to continue to do well. I then handed in my next essay feeling very confident and pleased with myself. Unfortunately I got a 42. Ouch. I basically decided then and there that things weren't working the way they were. So I decided to change. This unfortunately was one of the things that I didn't have time for (sorry guys!). Since then I have achieved a lot: Achieved a 2:1 for my second year, despite the 42 mark. Was forced by one of my housemates to leave my house, effectively I did not have a house during second year exams. On track for a high 2:1 for my degree. Visited the Houses of Parliament. Campaigned in the general election. Starting to learn Italian to travel to italy. Got a well paid job while at uni. Am moving up to Carlisle come sept to start a pgce course in citizenship. Am moving up there with my girlfriend who is doing the same course but in English. Hence, I hope you understand my lack of commenting Hello everyone!

Nolan Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Boom! After a long weekend teaching 10 hours of kids' classes, next Sunday I'm going to Ankara for at least 2 nights. And I have a date there. Win. :awesome: She reckons she can out drink me as I'm the lowest drinker of all my friends. She's forgetting that I'm English, and as anyone who's been interailing knows, the English are Tier 2, - shared with Australians and Canadians - below only Scots, who are Tier 0, and, as such, I can drink any Turk under the table. She's probably not expecting Jaeger shots or that much beer (bier, here), and as she's agreed to a game of keep-up and I get paid between now and then. Needless to say I'm at least having what most of the world would call a lot the moment after such a day, as I've had four on an empty stomach and feel like I did when teaching said kids' classes. Mmmm...Efes (pronounced "F-S")...Mmm...hot Turkish girl.... I also want to know if this whole message is obviously tipsy... Wait, you're Tier 2 below only the scots who are Tier 0....does that mean there isn't a Tier 1? I wonder where the US ranks, certainly low, the most popular drinks are terrible domestic beers, most of which are "lite" beers. Our dumb college students are almost always puking their guts out as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoogleViper Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I managed to get my 80s costume sorted for little more than a tenner. I just need to head down to the seafront now to get the sunglasses out of my car. I'll post some pictures tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
