hello
can i just start by saying thankyou to everyone who has made me feel very welcome to this site, and said hi to me. thankyou! and thanks to october for telling your friends to check me out. thanks guys it means a lot!
Well its been one of those days, very very surreal from the start
i only have lectures one day a week (on a monday, shocking i know). from walking in this morning it has just got weirder. the things you see people do! you couldnt make it up, a man balancing a tv arial on his head in the street, to a big, stocky, hardnut-looking man walking a prize-poodle with bows in its hair
Next came a practical on dendrochronology (basically counting tree rings to tell how old a piece of wood is (fun)). Being told by my lecturer to 'measure richards wood' whilst looking deadly serious along with everyone else sent me over the edge, i cracked, reverting to the tittering twelve year-old that lies within, much to the disgust of every body else (god that makes it so much funnier!)
Things just got worse, the next lecture involved 5 of us sat around the lecturer (very close to him) whilst my flatmate john kept going up and down on his office style chair making it do fart noises. that was bad enough, trying to stifle (sp?) laughter to the point of wetting yourself. then someone almost fell of their chair as it made a defening fart noise. that sent me over the edge. I havent had one, let alone two moments like that, since junior school. the whole being in a situation where u cant laugh thing is a real killer, it was painful. It never used to be that bad, i swear
It was really bad, i almost got up and walked out before i was kicked out.
It was a good day i suppose compared to the last few weeks. Work has really started to scare me. Dissertations are due in soon along with numerous essays. Its made worse by me having no motivation whatsoever at the moment. It makes you feel trapped, depressed. A few people i know have quit recently. it is demoralising. the whole experience will soon be over and i have no idea what i'm going to be doing in July. I'm going to miss so many people. I want to stay in Bristol, i have a job here but it doesn't pay enough to allow me to stay here. I will really miss this city, it holds so many memories.
I feel all gloomy now
silly i know
i think i told some of you (who i knew previous to joining sg) about my eye? (did i, i cant remember
) anyway lots of grit got blown into it at work and i almost had to go to hospital. its completely fine now, but it did hurt like fuck
Anyway, i think thats enough of my ramblings for now,
again, Thank you all so much for making me feel so welcome. Cheers guys
