Well here i sit at half past three in the morning. I gather I am slowly weening myself back to reasonable hours but we shall see...
So! (he says grinning and rubbing his palms together in an effort to begin tonight's musings) lets get a bit of general news out of the way shall we?
The world has shed the last of Christmas from its back. The living room is bare and the warm presents have a slightly stale look about them now. This is not a sign of ingratitude but rather a melancholic look back knowing that one of my favourite times has pulled away. The days are still short and rather dull and exam season is much closer on this side of Christmas. I have decided to try the first of the Christmas chocolate (a present from Willy and Joanne Crook) which is really quite nice! It's the only bit of chocolate i received this year, seeing as family decided against it and I obscurely guessed correctly at the number of selection boxes I'd need for presents. Curses to logic, perhaps.
I must also remark that when I open the little box I can't just have one of the little blighters, I must have three. Once exam season is over I start my new years resolutions and must then cut back in an effort to lose weight; it's the curse of the man who must spoil himself.
So to exams... I have 3 this year, one will be fine but the other two are rather too close together for my liking. I should be able to get through the material but I have a nagging feeling i sacrifice revision time of one for revision time of the other.
Never fear, it is time to organise myself to the letter! Organising study, constructiveness, social and leisure time so I can do all and still feel somewhat accomplished in myself.
Particularly short post here but its what we call a filler. It's not good for much other than to fill space between entries. Just a bit of an update on current events I suppose.
All the best to you,
Alex

I dunno lol it's not as short as some of mine; there are some consisting of one or two lines - now they really are just fillers lol - & I know what you mean about the feeling of melancholy about Christmas being over! It should last longer dammit! lol
ReplyDeleteChristmas should last longer? (Hi Caroline, I don't know you but you will soon see that doesn't stop me ranting at you.
ReplyDeleteThe fecking shops start Christmas in October, as they seem to think that the general populace cant remember to buy presents without being reminded quarter of a fucking year in advance.
Then soon you get all the shops blaring out rubbish music at twice the normal volume because apparently it is more important to hear every background note of Slade than it is to talk to whoever you came shopping with.
Now don't get me wrong, I like Christmas. See the family, exchange gifts and eat good food. But why do some people feel the need to have some kind of cheap, crappy, over the top orgy of crap music and tacky decorations for three months leading up to one nice happy day.
Bah
