"IM THE MOST DRUNK I'VE EVER BEEN"

...I wasn't, but It was definitely up there, freshers at Risa smashed it! Monday night Hawaiian party at the something ballroom was also sweet. Definitely the best freshers I've ever had. They are going to be the only two events I go to this year because I'm off to Liverpool tomorrow. Not sure if its their freshers as well? A good friend of mine is 21, and a load of the boys from Nuneaton, and me are off up to scouse land to celebrate it, hard. We know people who go to uni up there meaning free accommodation also. Looking forward to it.

Enrolled for my third year at uni today, third and final year. Gutting in a lot of ways, but also an achievement. Got me reminiscing about the whole experience up to now, and all in all its been fucking great, full of drama, but such is life, I wouldn't change a thing.

Still waiting for the pizza picture! So I'll end this with this (very old) picture of me with Emps and Crofty, two of the lads I'll be having it large with in Liverpool!

...

500 days of summer really did live upto the hype.


...Lets hope Chris Browns album does also.



...Killing Time

Waiting for 500 days of summer to buffer. Been hyped up by my friends massively so its going to have to be pretty fucking good for me to be impressed.

Freshers!..Not really aimed at me being a third year now, but I'm massively tempted to go to a couple of events. Looking forward to going to Liverpool at the weekend for Millsy's 21st, lets have it! All in all, a lot to look forward to, either in excitement, or fear.

I bought an xbox 360! Killed my overdraft, but I'm already sure it was worth it, I have 150 gamer points ish, got a way to go to my mates 22,500, but give me a year or two and we'll see who's boss! (Its him, by a mile).


I'm listening to that Ken doll again, o dear.

Gaming

...About to go into my third, crucial year at university and its now that I rediscover my love of gaming. Goodbye degree, I could say goodbye prospects, but I am doing a Media degree...

Next gen, next gen, next gen...
I cant even play my ps2 anymore, I crave better graphics, more detailed gaming worlds, triggers instead of R2 and L2.

My dreams are still fucking wierd, and talking about fucking, one of said wierd dreams was interrupted by just that.
20 inch pizzas are rad, we had one, we took a photo, when my housie gets it on the web I'll put it up, for me to look at everytime I post again. Satisfying.

Mmmm, I've not mentioned music at all yet since I started this shiiiiiiiiat. All about The King Blues at the minute, and I don't care that they're on a major label now. Fairplay, sell out to the world fellas, hell sell out to the universe!
I think I've got over my problem with one of the beats for the house band, which is nice...Now if only I can break into the Morecombe first team on fifa and lead Tottenham to premiership glory (thats right I got a big promotion)...
My life will be complete.

Psyche and Illusion

So last night I had one of the grimmest nightmares of my life, complete with people from my life past and present, as well as a host of people I don't know and may not even exist, but seemed to in the dream. Set in my university house, but in New Zealand, it ended with my losing all the possessions I care about, on my own, feeling the worst I can possibly imagine. A psychiatrist would have a field day with it I would imagine.

A massive topic on conversation at the moment is Derren Brown, with his lottery trick. A couple of my friends reckon the hint he dropped about how he would do it fixing the machine is the way he actually did it. Others think the way he said he actually did it must be true. I, don't really care. I've accepted the bloke is very impressive and I can't hope to ever second guess his illusions. I've been watching a lot of Jonathan Creek recently, if the guy existed, I'm sure he'll be able to tell us how he did it for sure.

Third Year, Birmingham & Wrexham F.C

So, after a pretty sweet week back in Nuneaton catching up with friends and having japes, complete with my Dads 55th and my sisters 18th, I'm back in Birmingham indefinitely. Massive thanks to my parents, who have sent me back with loads of food, much appreciated!

This good news as it is on a number of levels, also means the approach of my third year at University, which I'm looking forward to as much as a greenfly at a ladybird buffet.

At least I've got my epic career with Wrexham to carry on with on Footie manager. In my fourth season top of league two looking for my 2nd promotion in four years having spent no money whatsoever.
Also cant wait to get my loan in and buy an xbox 360, fifa10 from the demo seems ace.

My good friend Banny is also moving back to Bham today, he lives around the corner and we have a cheeky jam planned, looking forward to banging the skins and listening to him shred!

I like putting photos in, so here is Martin Hanson, one of my star players with Wrexham, picked up from Liverpool on a free. Mmm yeah, thats some good bargain buying.

Pub Quizzes & Basshunter

I don't know what you're meant to do with this blogging lark in terms of do I say who I am, how old I am (The title gives that away) etc?

I have a lot of thoughts so maybe this is a good idea?..Or maybe I'll never do another post after this, time will tell...

So yeah, was down a local pub tonight with four chums doing a pub quiz for a laugh and it was. But a few things struck me...
Firstly, we scored 30 out of 60 (with a little help from the couple next to us), not bad for a group of twenty year olds lacking in life experience and historical knowledge due to not having been alive that long. We were however surrounded by teams of pensioners throwing us filthy looks every time we laughed or spoke to each other while the quiz was going on (and I mean between the rounds themselves)

The quizmaster was a bloke who runs several quizzes and different pubs in my fair town and his questions are in my opinion to a large extent ridiculous.

The most modern song in the music round was from 1998, with the vast majority of questions being from the 60's, which you could argue caters for a large extent of the people taking part, but I think, and I hope I will when im old (touchwood I get there) that they should spread from the 50's (the start of 'popular music' right to the present day!
The geography round concerned small African countries kings in the 70's amongst other things.

I guess it was for hardcore quizzers, but I found it a bit too serious, I know for a fact theres several teams of quizzers who go around my town to different pubs running quizzes on different nights to play, which is fair enough, but they take it very serious. All for a winning prize of 18 quid!...between 8, thats 2.25 each roughly?

fantastic!!


On a lighter note, I'm listening to Basshunters album and enjoying it, and I don't care! He's below, 'So slimy, so greasy, such a Ken doll' you could say. I think hes a good lad, but each to our own opinion!
