About me: I'm an English Lit student at Sheffield University, I enjoy reading (obviously) and playing guitar. Hanging out with mates, movies, games; the usual stuff. I have a wonderful ladyfriend named Jamie who I've been with for 4 years now. I am a member of the (rarely active) Parasitic Death Gibbons as well as a founding member and multi-instrumentalist for the amazing genre-defying Womblecraft 4000-12.0.0.1.a who are brilliant. Check both out in my top buddies too mwahahaha.
Who I'd like to meet: Well old friends I may have lost touch with, and of course new and present mates are also welcome!
I'd also like to meet anyone willing to give me a lot of money for little or no labour.
long story cut short, my ex came to a party last night and all the lads kicked off for no reason and then my ex came up to me literally pouring with blood :S think he got a class shoved in his face or summin but some ppl say it was a punch but theres no way a punch can cause that much blood. nay mindddd.
Eurgh >. < yea Trent will make it all better :) I will look out for you now!
Pffft well Myspace is saying that the only words i have spelt correctly are: >.<, will, all and i .... but not and... its saying i have spelt that wrong. Bastards. ooooh thats incorrectly spelt though >D
ANYWAY.... should be a kick ass night :D its their last tour isnt it :(
why do you have a group of people coming to look at the house at half 4?
i dunno if i want to see it because (i've forgotten his name) but the main guy in it was a poo actor in The Happening which i watched the other day. hmm..
life is good thanks. i have just finished my personal statement! hoorah! x
ahah :) taz got bored and decided to change my extended network. i apologise if he offended you ;). i didn't notice until i got your comment. he's a cheeky thing. so, how are you?
did you know the max payne film is out soon? also, how was the erik mongrain (i think that's how you spell it..) gig? x
lolol well the Frankie joke did make me laugh, and i love him. but i was talking about the dylan moran gig :). i want to see a comedian again. bill bailey is playing in october..
ahah oh yeah, i meant lesson (A). it was very fun indeed and i got to do lots of driving because it was a 2 hour lesson. i didn't break the car and norman said i was very good at doing the up hill starts :)!
well i got lots of birthday cheques from the aunties, uncles, grandparents etc and some money from jam. which was nice. i bought lots of clothes with my money in manchester, and my surprise was a vivienne westwood bag which is now my baby. so yay. a very good day indeed. x
Ow well i feel silly now because i rather like 17. i like all of them actually :/ haha. i'd give it a 9/10, but i guess i'm nice like that.
ahah i'm glad you had a good time at the gig. jam was telling me the odd joke from it too :). *jealousy*
my birthday was fantastic thankyou. i had a lovely weekend and got lots of lovely thoughtful things. also, i had my first driving test yesterday! i was amazing. baha XD x
yayayay! that sounds great :) i don't usually drink but that's because i don't like the kind of drunk most people get. but i know jamie and you will be fun drunks so i can't wait! :D the place we go is completely up to you and jam as i have no idea what is good and what isnt.. so yeah, i'll let that brew with you two :)
oh so you actually quit? cool. atleast you can get some cash here and there if you want.
yeah mum mentioned this uni chat before so any advice would be appreciated. i'm interested in something along the lines of english language and social studies. i do still want to get into journallism, but i want to do something which means me having a few directions that i could go after as opposed to a specific career course. if you know what i mean? i'm not up to much this week really.. i am technically back to college but my new timetable is silly. i was supposed to have an hour (yes, a single hour) of media today but it got cancelled coz mr o'hara has been seconded by the BBC. so we'll probably hardly have any lessons D: other than that i had a full day yesterday which was okay. atleast i have a routine again though. what are the two gigs you're going to? x
mm curry :3 i still have to try a curry from there and a chinese from that place jam goes. i'm so intrigued :)
yeah i'm working 9-1 on saturday, but then sometimes i'll be working a full day like 8-5:30 or something. it changes alot according to the rest of the staff. but i'm all for it!
also, only because i know jamie will be with you.. ask her if the weekend after my birthday weekend is okay for our night together? she said she'd take me out to some clubs and stuff as a present :D xx
hahah. i just think i'll be better sticking with what i'm good at and the main reason i stuck with lit even though i wasn't brilliant at it, was because of mr cooper. and he is gone now :/
four years? good lord that is impressive sir! :) so what are you doing for the anniversary? or have you told me and i've forgotten?
things are great with the tazman thankyouu. :D it has been just over 8 months, which is a record for both of us haha. your four year mark does put us to shame somewhat, but nevertheless were very happy. haha :}
he has not made me noodles yet, but he has made flapjack which was very nice. x
the subjects i'm carrying on with are sociology, english language and media. dropping lit for sure.
this week i'm not doing all that much. i went to the gym with dad yesterday, and taz is staying over tonight 'cause mum and dad are out so i won't be alone :3 and the only thing planned for this weekend is sowerbutts and college preparation. which is scraily soon. how about you? so are you going to quit the tutorial stuff? or do you think they won't need you anymore? are you looking forward to uni? :)
eep! i'd forgotten about your anniversary :D that's so lovely. how long has it been now?
they were all from around manchester.. and most of them went to either manchester college or loretto. apparantly they could tell where me and katie were from, making comments like "i take it you're from glossop then?" and "that's glossop humour isn't it?"
yeah it's a saturday job and hopefully i will have some free afternoons to make some extra cash too.. that is if my new timetable isn't completely balls. xx
yay me! i refer to it as a 'sort of' job as he invited me on saturday to "see if [i] like it" first. so, it is a job.. but i think he thought i'd wanna try it out first before he actually employs me. if you get me?
haha i agree. i know i look like a mong, but thankyou for pointing that out for me dear. :)
THE FISH LIKE PEAS?! dammit. jam could have atleast picked one fish that doesn't like them. but oh well. i am happy because the sun has come out and i may just be able to go out without getting rained on x
