Feelin' like a monday...Right then, after waking up at some ungodly hour this bright and breezy friday morning (about 8am), I've decided that the people who did my timetable just plain don't like me, maybe they're related to the random girl who called me a prick in the bar the other night...maybe.
After doing what quite frankly amounts to not all that much thinking since the last one of these, I realised I still haven't found a central unifying theme for this blog. Some people use a blog to rant about the world, some people use it to rant about (sorry, 'express') their feelings and desires and about how their ex should burn in hell or whatever, and some people use it to try and affect change on the world, though this is generally limited to people with influence like, say...Barack Obama.
Me? I dunno, I reckon a bit of everything, then maybe I won't run out of things to say after 3 posts and become 'one of those people'. Now I've got no idea where to start, Uni seems like a good place, no?
I'm sitting here at this desk, listening to 'Bad Medicine' by Bon Jovi, while wondering why, maybe I'm a secret 80's hair rocker, maybe Bon Jovi is actually good, I think the first one is more likely, but I digress. I'm sitting here writing this blog post, while sniffling like a bitch due to the lovely cold I have and using it as an excuse not to go to the finance office and plead for more money/rant about student finance being shit, but the real thing that's struck me over the past few days or so isn't how nice the place is here (and it's really, really nice) or how warm it is or anything like that, its that I don't seem to miss people, especially my family, as much as I'm supposed to/other people do.
I'm not much of an emotional person anyway, as probably best evidenced by the numerous failed relationships left in my wake and my inability to hold one together even when completely and madly in love with the girl, but that's for another day entirely (and the whole sending to burn in hell thing would be tricky too, but again, more on that later...maybe). People seem to be missing someone, everyone is missing either their family, or their other half, or their old mates, or their dog or their fish or something. Dani (another housemate) has actually gone home to Spain for the weekend (now its changed to Blow by Atreyu, moving on up) because of this, and while it would be really easy for me to go round criticising people for this, given my polar opposite viewpoint, there's something about it that makes me able to 'sort of, but not really' understand. There's also the fact that everyone here is from Essex or London, which means they can go home every weekend, which to me is completely pointless, why come to University, traditionally seen as a move to gain/foster your independence, if you're gonna go back to where you came from every 5 days? Grow up and move on for fuck's sake.
It's now moved onto The Ducky Boys, and I'm now going to go and sort out stuff with the charmingly brusque people in the finance office, print some seminar stuff out, and possibly try and find out why the bathroom smells like potatoes.
Laters.

Just be glad that it's potatoes that the bathroom smells of, could be much worse!
