“Which one do I trust?”

1 08 2011

Wow, hasn’t it just been an age and a half since I last bothered to post on here properly? I’m sorry, it takes a certain mood to write things in the personal sense, so beyond posting links to other things, I didn’t really have much to contribute. I guess that’s in part because I haven’t needed to rant in a good long time, or at least not have a big long one. All the little one’s have been dealt with by my friends and my extremely talented and beautiful girlfriend.

That does however bring into question why exactly I’m posting now. I’m sure you’ll all be glad to know it isn’t to have a rant. Or at the very least I don’t intend it to be. Occasionally I get a bit carried away with writting these things and all sorts of stuff comes tumbling out.

Right, to business then, what has been happening in my life between then and now…
Well, first and foremost I guess I’d have to mention the end of my first year at uni. I failed the year as it happens, but I did finish it, which is more than can be said for some. I was a few percent short of a pass on both light and matter and maths 2, and apparently my Nano-Aerosols lab report was sub-par as well. The lab report I’ve already improved somewhat, and given to my tutor to look at and suggest improvements, the two exams though, I haven’t really had the courage to properly face until today. My re-revision started today with my journey to the uni library to both use the internet and to work on maths 2. I think I’ve done maybe half an hours work on complex numbers so far. Time seems to be passing in jumps and starts, really confusing me. Anyway, note to self, do more work, pass exams, do better next year.

One of the reasons I’m annoyed with myself (as well as the obvious, not putting enough work in and thereby failing), is that I couldn’t bring myself to tell my family the extent of my failing. I played it down to all of them. They all think it’s almost certain I’ll get into next year, but I don’t. Jess also believes I will pass my re-sits, and she knows exactly how badly I did, and I don’t want to make her faith in me misplaced, so I guess I’ll have to work more from now on.

Someone on the table next to me just ordered a grilled cheese sandwich. I’m getting both hungry and slightly nauseous. Not eating till about 7.30, but never mind. That brings me to my next point in a round about way. I guess most of you already know I’m living in the house in Leicester at the moment. and until the other day there was nobody else in or around Leicester for me to hang out with. Then, the other day Ben moved into his place. F**king sound lad. lol. I may have just gone a little chav for a second there, but I meant it :) Definitely a good friend, and a good laugh too. I’m going to the loaded dog for food with him in a bit. See the link? yeah I know, a little tenuous, but there you go :)

What else? Hmmm… Well, I’ve been job hunting, for a while now. I haven’t got a job yet, but I’ve not lost hope. Of what must be nearly 40 different jobs I’ve applied for now, I’ve had one interview and three rejection emails. I got all the rejection emails in the last two days. At the interview however, I apparently was exactly what they were looking for, and after an observation day they offered me the job. It was a terrible job for rubbish pay, so I turned it down, but at least they offered me the job in the first place. That counts for something right?

This chair is not at all comfortable on the spine. Definite back-ache going on at the moment.

I’m amused by the fact that I’m using the library’s cafĂ©’s internet, and I’m drinking a can of coke I brought from home. Rebel ;) Haha.

Jess has let me borrow her spare glasses because I managed to destroy another pair of my own a while back. I need to get my own, but I’m seriously low on funds. Selling stuff on ebay for some extra cash, just to make my overdraft last a little longer.

Right, time to get back to studying.

Smell ya later guys ;)
