Rain rain and more rain. The snow has gone and all we are left with is rain. Cold rain, the fine kind that soaks you through without really doing anything. It’s gonna be a long weekend me thinks.

Tonight Castle is having one of it’s Ents (this is a themed night by the way) So far I have attended a toga ent - one sheet, one pin, a 60’s ent, a hallowe’en ent and a christmas ent. However, for reasons undisclosed tonights ent is “Black&Bondage - Pink&Fluffy” … I think i’ll spend the night in my room with a bottle of wine and some dvd’s! I have a wee bit of a rep (nothing too bad) and if i go this ent i think it might make matters a lot worse. Though i did bring my handcuffs with me this term…

Anyhoo, I didn’t get into the big band. According to the official e-mail it was because they didn’t have any songs suited to my voice. According to the non-official chat i had with one of the three guys who did the auditions it was because the other two didn’t like the effect a tongue piercing had on my singing. I knew that thing would have it’s downsides! But it’s not fully healed yet so I may be able to sing again. If not I’ll just have to take it out when i sing.

Right, I’m off to buy a bottle of wine and some munchies and possible new film (any suggestions?) After that I have to settle down to learning old english verb endings and cases. Fun fun, learning a language that no one speaks anymore. Though apparently I could go and speak Old English in Friesland and make myself semi-understood! I spy a challenge…

So last night was the panto social. We arrived in the great hall at about 6:50. Once we got there we realised that the table people had chosen wasn’t actually big enough to accomodate us all! So being the nice people that are fellow castlemen are we swapped with a bigger table The food was nothing special (pork as far as i can recall) but there was drink a plenty and many a glass was corked. Corking by the way is literally that. If someone puts a cork in your glass then you have to down its contents and get another one. Sounds ok but downing wine is never a good ting and the more drunk you get the more your defences are down! so you see why it gets messy. Plus, if the top table spots you then you get fines. It all adds to the excitement of a formal really.

Anyhoo, after formal we moved on to the undie where yet more alcohol was consumed in vast quantities. Then half the guys went to one club, and half to another. Being already quite sloshed I decided to go to neither and instead went upstairs for a cup of tea and a chat with the certain director And before you jump to conclusions I didn’t do anything! we drank tea and talked and drank more tea and then curled up in bed and fell asleep. he had a 9:00 lecture this morning and so left me a cup of tea on the side and went. that’s it. See, I’m not a total whore though i could be classed as a tea whore maybe… i drink enough of the damned stuff!

And now I have a nice empty afternoon stretching off ahead of me. It’s quite boring really. But at the end of an afternoon there is an evening. And i nthe evening there is a bar…

What?! We’re students!! It’s what we do! :p

No really I do. Especially when you turn up a couple of mintues early, hear the person before you (who was really good) and then have the guys doing the auditions say “oh don’t worry, she wasn’t the best we’ve had”. That really inspires confidence.

Anyhoo, due to the piano player having a hangover it meant he couldn’t be arsed to play through the instrumental before the high bit of “all by myself” so i was saved from the shame of trying to sing it. There is a god… and his name be Vodka.

We have had yet more snow today (and yesterday in fact!) everything is all clean and white! well the bits that haven’t been walked on are anyway! the only problem is that whenever one ventures outside now you have to arm yourself with a snowball for self defence. Some of those third years have got a mean throw! But i can point and laugh at all those who didn’t think to bring decent winter footwear… I have soggy toes no more for i have boots yay!

Anyhoo, I’m gonna go soothe my nerves (i only seem to get nervous AFTER an audition!) and wait to hear from them. Ho hum, never mind.

Thankfully it’s not my own but my room-mate’s. There is a group of 8 that want to live together, or at least split into two 4’s and have adjoining houses. This doesn’t seem like to much of a deal. But when I walk into my room to see 11/12 people sitting there screeching about houses and petty arguments it’s all a bit much! I mean, I wanted a quite night! A glass of wine, a little moping… you know, the usual! But no, that pleasure was denied. So i did what any sane person would do… I came back down to the bar.

Pool anyone?

Forgive me dear blog readers (if there are any of you left!) for not posting for a while. I’ve been a wee bit busy and have only just managed to get my arse to the computer room.

So yes, I see from the comments that somebody doesn’t appear to be very happy with the way I’m living my life at the moment. Thing is, I don’t know you (and if i do then i really don’t want to) and I really don’t care what you think about me. Thing i want to know is, why is it that blokes can go around and get drunk and do bad things and it’s considered “a man thing to do” and yet when a wee girly does it she’s an instant slut?! Sorry, bit of a pet hate there!

Anyhoo, now that i’ve ranted my way through that i can get on with the rest of my blog… not that I can remember what i was going to say! Ah yes, that’s it, another small rant I’m afraid (i’ve had a bad weekend)
(more…)

Last night was… eventful. it wasn’t the panto social (that’s next week!) but it didn’t stop me a group of friends going out and getting very VERY drunk! This led to be doing very bad things with someone I really shouldn’t have. It’s gonna take me a while to get rid of that rep me thinks! Nevertheless, it was a really good night and we shall endeavour to do it again… very soon! Plus it means I now have a whole week to figure out how to get my claws into a certain directore… yum!

anyhoo, www.miniclip.com/twiddlestix.htm (can’t be arsed to do it as a URL yet, the computer is playing silly buggers!) This is a highly addictive game and i warn you not to play it unless you’re willing to sacrifice you’re whole day to it!

Have fun… I know I will

Why is it that just when you think you’ve got things sorted something else turns up out of the blue? Ok, so i knew i was starting a new module this term (morphology… joy!) but I didn’t know that a new lecture was just gonna spring up randomly and proceed to consume my wednesday morning! I was not a happy bunny.

But hey, it’s wednesday which means the week is half over. It also means that I just have to get through tomorrow and my weekend can start at 4:15 my timetable’s not all bad! We’re supposed to be going out tomorrow night as well, all us panto shaped people are finally gonna have a big meal and lash-fest… should be interesting. Well, very interesting in fact. Given the last time we got together for plenty lots drink. There was table dancing, drinking games and the two directors snogged. doesn’t sound much until yourealise both directors are male. But given the right circumstances i might be able to have my way with one of the directors tomorrow… he is rather lovely in a dark, handsome, rugged, shaggable type way!!
I don’t know what’s gotten in to me but so far this week I’ve made it to breakfast every single day! Now I know that those of you who can count will be like “but that’s only 3 times… what’s the big deal?!” It’s a big deal coz i only made it last term a grand total of 3 times! i’ve managed to match my personal best already! plus I’m hopeless at mornings so i’m feeling quite proud of myself
I am now back onto solid foods (yay!) and have had the bar changed in my tongue. It feels so much better now that it’s not constantly clanging against my teeth! Also, the shorter bar has granted me the power of intelligible speech again which makes me rather happy Don’t quite know what to do with the old bar though. It’s a beast! but i don’t really want to get rid of it… got quite attached to it…

Anyhoo, I think that’s about all for now. I shall be back with a much better entry (one hopes) on friday with tales of drinking, socials and general all round naughtiness
Quote for the evening:

“I’m afraid of grounds!”
“Afraid of heights youmean.”
“I know what i mean, it’s the grounds that kill you!”

Hmm… this is a point of interest that has been bothering us here at college for quite a while. It involves pretty much what it says… shitting yourself inside out. Provides quite a bizarre mental image. Then of course there’s always the theory of sneezing yourself inside out. I mean, there is a lot of pressure when you sneeze so anything is possible!

But tonight, over a dinner of congealed lasagne, sweetcorn and “mixed salad” that seemed to consist of nothing but small squares of cucumber and the occasional piece of pepper if you were lucky, the subject arose…

“What would happen if you shitted AND sneezed yourself inside out at the same time?!” This provide us with a good 5 minutes contemplation and thus, another meal at university college passed.
(more…)

Not to mention arial tongues and doggy porn! Oh the sorts of goings on that can happen down at your local on a saturday night!

I can’t really be bothered to explain the title right now, think i’ll just leave it as a point of mystery. But i will say that it was a most amusing evening and the level of conversation had tonight shall be greatly missed when i get back to college
Anyhoo, I’m off to bed as I’ve got to be up early to catch a plane or two!

Nighty night
