Eeeeps

What is going on with this not so very English weather? I know that Leeds is dryer than Barcelona by statistics, but this isn't Spain and I'm unfortunate enough to not live near a beach to enjoy this properly! Whatever the weather would be though I'd have to complain about it especially with types like the dissapointing storm of last night, so much thunder but no rain! That's just the British way.

My head is a bit worse for wear at the moment, I've spent most evenings of the week intoxicating my brain with booze! Which has been fun, though expensive. Unfortunatly it also means I haven't had any chances to talk to my lovely housemates who seem to be internet nocturnal at the moment- sorry guys!

But enough of that, life is good- though far too warm and humid and there is much to look forwards to! (should it be forward or forwards? I can never decide) Driving lessons(and tests), Birthdays, holidays, results and sun, sun, sun. Can't wait to move house on Tuesday either and to see the new one, it is tres exciting :)


Here's a new song of the week for you, A Message to you Rudy- The Specials heard it on Glasto Tv, Friday and it is a favourite. Gutted I didn't go and see them when they played Millenium Square now!

Packtastic

Things change and come and go as they please. Even what we believe we have control of, can take its own course sometimes. Today my house has started the epic task of cleaning and packing away all our messes and things. It's a tad sad, though it's not the end yet. Still kind of surreal that second year of uni is done and that the third is waiting round the corner! I got my maths results back yesterday and I passed everything which is great, just need my Pyschology and Geography results back now, but I believe I am now on a solid 2:1. Hopefully I can bash up the marks next year and have a chance at a first! We shall see.


That's all I have to say really except I have become a fond fan of tea in recent days. Here to keep you entertained: The Lancashire Hotpots - Mek Us A Brew and my track of the week Right Said Fred - Bernard Cribbins or even more funtastic the lego version here. Enjoy!

A certain amount of tomfoolery

Boys are stupid. It is a statement which has rung true and true again in the last few weeks and without diverging any of the specifics I admit my own stupidity has been projected to a number of people. But my question is this: If someone can recognise their own idiocy, without any hints or pointers to it from any environmental factor or any person's words, actions or expressions except from their own, are they in themselves less of an idiot than they at that point therein percieve?

The same arguement can be expressed elsewhere, for instance. If a man believes he is insane, is he not also in someway sane; in order to recognise and express the insanity from which he ails? But if is able to recognise this and express it freely then his mind is not so corrupted as he first thought and he is in fact sane! What becomes of these irrational arguements?

I must also apologise for the slight archaic style of my post today, which is very much influenced by my reading of the great Edgar Allan Poe's short stories. I have not witnessed anyone with such inginuity and control over the use of the English Langauge as he and although a pleasure to read it is slow reading and takes much effort. I have been reading in chunks since around September time and am only just past half way! But I shall make it! & then make a start on all the other books I have to read!

There were too many songs last week, so I'm not giving away any music priveleges this week. Now eat your gruel!

New post, new month.

Ok firstly, I've moved some bits and pieces around on the right hand side- i hope it still looks aesthetically pleasing. Please note the shiny Wolfram Alpha box and if you haven't checked it out the link to my blog linked spotify playlist is also there. I usually add a track a week, though there have been many updates since my last entry. More of that a little later.

Secondly, I must note that I have become bored of fridging. not enough of my friends have joined fridge and the only comments that have been left seem to offend various members of my family :(. So I'm temporarily disabling my account.

Now to the serious issues! I didn't post last week because I was too occupied with fridge and I had many uncomfortable exams, for examples of it's badness I refer you to the below comics made from boredom:


To clarify, there are two seperate 'stories' going on here. One focussing on heat exhaustion and heading to the Majorie-Ziff building to cool down(It's really very nice in there!!) and the other about undetermined endpoints in a book. If you're in desperate need of a transcipt for my appalling scrawl I can offer one, but not unless asked. Any opinions? Where does it fit on the scale from trash to mildly amusing?

Also I am now 1) free from exams for a while! 2) Have less than a month till my birthday! These are truely exciting times and I have managed to find some time today to start reading my pile of books and grab some tasty apple dougnuts from Somerfield, which sadly is closing very soon(to become a Sainsbury's!). People have started to filter out of my Leeds house which is quite sad, but we'll all see each other again so it's all goood. I need to catch up with some people before I inevitably leave myself!

I know this has turned out to be superlong, which is the unfortunate consequence of having not been on here in what i'd call a while; and of also telling you all sorts of things you either a) don't want to know b) know already! So I'll leave you with my new songs. There is a live version of You Will You Won't- The Zutons , who are one of my favourite scouse bands. Then on top of that Lifeboats- Snow Patrol , fom their newest album. I really like the bridge and the way the melodies and stuff work at such a slow pace. Finally I leave you with something from Daniel Merriweather's(he sang on Mark Ronson's version of Stop Me[Originally by The Smiths]) new album, Change- Danniel Merriweather. It's a little jazzy, funky and delivers a strong message.

That's all folks!
