Heavy, melancholy men turn lighter, and come temporarily to their surface, precisely by that which makes others heavy - by hatred and love.

I've been going through a period of self introspection again. It's a nasty habit, I admit, yet it's nevertheless something that is a semi-regular event. I'm just... still not quite certain what makes me me. I' ( Read more... )

Tonight's going kind of badly for me. I'm in Stoke at the moment (figured a few of my uni mates might be around, and I was missing the place anyway). Unfortunately literally 10 seconds before I walked out of my front door in Derby, the phone rang. It was my (dead) uncle's wife, ringing to tell my dad that his mum had just died ( Read more... )

Merry Christmas guys! I'm totally getting drunk on beer and whiskey fudge today. Yeah.

Also, just so you all know, my phone's currently completely dead because I was a total moron and forgot to bring my phone charger home from Stoke. Damn. I'll go and fetch it in a few days, at which point I shall text various members of my phone book wishing them

Back in Derby, finally. Hurrah. It's a shame that I've had such a rubbish week, though.

Last night was actually pretty good, for the most part. It's been a long, long time since I've been in the Blue Note and actually had fun. It has gotten incredibly chavvy, though. How times change ( Read more... )

My last night in Stoke, and it promises to go out with a (albeit minor) bang. We need to finish off all of our alcohol at some point, we just watched Secretary (Mike and I were high-fiving each other throughout the whole damn thing, and I think it might just go on my list of favourite films), and now we're cooking a HUGE amount of pasta. Seriously ( Read more... )

Christ, why do I feel so alone?

Life should be going well for me. For the most part it is. Yet right now, I just feel hollow.

Today I do not feel great at all.

I had fun at the weekend; went to Manchester, and saw several people who I have not seen for some time, and have missed very much. It was a good weekend; I enjoyed it very much.

But now... Now I am back in Stoke, and I have realised that tomorrow I have a deadline on Plato (who I am not a fan of at all), and that ( Read more... )

So, interesting few days. Went bowling last night, and my performance pretty much confirmed the hypothesis that I suck at bowling. I never outright lost any of the games, but I didn't do well during any of them. I did get a few strikes, though, which upon hearing of at least one of my friends turned to me, eyes wide, uttering "You liar". Fun times ( Read more... )

My philosophy essay is AMAZING. I'm actually talking about the ramifications of tiny little people invading someone's brain.

I'm actually contemplating whether my balls are big enough to use The Matrix trilogy as a reference in my philosophy essay. I win so hard.
