Hi Mongooses (Mongeese?)
Right now I am hungry, but never fear; I am having a
delicious home cooked roast which I don’t have to do anything in order for it
to be made. That’s right motherfuckers. I am home.
So I have had a pretty pleasant day today. I went to Wembley
to watch Swindon play in the Johnston’s Paint Trophy final. Swindon lost and to
tell the truth, they were pretty bad at football. They have been doing really
well up until now so I can’t complain too much. I had a nice day as well so
that was good. I also saw David from a distance, we waved at each other, it was
cool. The stadium is right by where Wembley Arena is. I will be going there in
a little over two weeks to see Frank Turner. I am still incredibly excited. OH
and in other exciting music news, the night before Frank David, Kate and I are
going to see Ben Marwood, Jim Lockey and the Solemn Sun and Crazy Arm along
with a super secret special guest. I love all of those bands so much. Ah, why
is this happening over 2 weeks away?
Being at home is pretty sweet to be honest. I like not
really having to do things in order to stay alive. That’s really the biggest
short fall in living alone. Cooking and cleaning and washing are just a big old
ball ache which I never seem to have enough time to do.
My last week of uni term was tiring and little else. I
stayed up until 3 writing essay on Monday, then had lectures at 9 every day of
the week. It was also housemate Andy’s birthday. We made him a giant cookie
instead of a cake and went out and got drunk. He was hammered so we ran away
and left him with his girlfriend. I got some free chips and curry sauce from
Jason’s Donnervan on the way home. On Friday my mum came to pick me up because
she is lovely. We had lunch in Jamie Oliver’s restaurant and I had pasta with
crab in it. Harry is quite right, crab is delicious.
I am so enjoying this recent sunny weather. I hope it goes
on for ever. It is making me want to play cricket. Also hang out in Lydiard or
something with you.
Hey remember when I said one of the things I was going to do
this year was get fit? Yeah me neither really. Well I am actually going to
start doing that this Easter. I have been meaning to start going running for a
long time, it is a bit scary at uni though because I live on quite a busy road
with people all around and I am horribly unfit so would be horribly out of
breath the whole time and I don’t think I would enjoy that happening, especially
with lots of people about. Living in the middle of nowhere is good in this
respect, I can go running and no one will even see me. So yeah, by this time
next week I will have gone running at least three times. And that right there
is a promise that I will not break!
Yesterday it was all nice and sunny so I decided to play
with my camera a bit. I set it up on a tripod by the birdfeeder thing in the
garden and used the remote control it came with to try and take cool pictures
of birds. The trouble was, because the remote was free, it was rubbish and you
had to be really close to the camera for it to work, pretty much negating its
use. With me trying to hide in the bushes, the birds were too afraid and to go
anywhere near the camera most of the time. Here is the best picture I took. I
have ordered a new remote of the internet that works from miles away so I’m
going to try again this week.
I have to start revision this week which is not a fun
prospect. It should be ok though because I have a whole month to learn 8 weeks’
worth of work. So yay, learning I guess.
David, I haven’t given your challenge much thought I am
afraid and I really can’t think of something I like that is embarrassing and
you guys don’t know about. I love cricket, but you all know that, also it is
nothing to be ashamed of. I’ll try think of stuff this week. Also, the poetry
was beautiful.
I’m going to see lots of you soon I hope. I can not wait.
Oh and hey, I just found where I saved funny pictures before I had a blog pictures folder.
