hahaha! I don't look on here for ages (sorry about that, I'm rubbish) and then I look and I am greeted by the face of one of the "two lesbians". I'm sure we used to call them that. They certainly got lots of scowls and muttered comments in French classes. ergh...
and becca, she rows at Newark in the summer, weird weird weird!
BTW check out www.facebook.com, massive craze! everyone's on it, uncluding mejulie!
All on strike in frenchy france, massively rubbish lazy communists! ahh well, sunbathe! actually got sunburnt last week, in MARCH! woo!

Firstly, I know I haven't written in this for ages and ages but i haven't really had much to say so here goes.....
I am now a resident of Aix-en-Provence!!! I arrived this morning and it's quite scary! But the town is very pretty. They have rubbish keyboards here too, grrr! They aren't QWERTY, they're AZERTY and loads of things are in the wrong place and there are lots of extra characters too, vicious. So it has taken me an age to write this and now there is a big queue so I must go but I promise I will try to write more and more often!

OK, so there is literally a foot of snow on the floor. can't see out my roof window. cars trapped on the roads, skid skid. Durham must be the snowiest place in the country. And apparently it is going to snow non-stop all week. I will get someone to take a photo and will put it on here.

:( I haven't written many entries lately because I just feel they would be rubbish and feature much moaning and bitching from me. One day soon I will do a nice update about happy things :o)

New Year and Christmas officially suck.
Ridiculous presents from even your parents that make you sad because it seems like they don't know you at all.
Stupid emotions flying around for people who should still be here but for some stupid reason are not.
Last minute cancellations, people deciding to do other things rather than see you, rejected!
Lack of contact from people you want to spend time with.
People getting far too drunk and not knowing what planet their on. Aggression. Stupidity.
Missverstandnis (I can't be arsed to find character map!)
Collossal fight with neighour.
Self centred braggarts.
Belittled, insulted, depressed, betrayed.
Home by 9.30 New Year's Eve, watching Jools Holland (who actually was really good!!!)
Massive bloody Tsunami.
ah well, I'm sure there are good parts to it too. Just this year has been rather a flop. Not only that I am now at the age where christmas loses it's magic and will not be the same until I have children (urm, not for a while thanks!) but people can be so rubbish at times! And christmas is a time when rubbish people can ruin everything.

argh! am I that terrible? that unapproachable? that unpleasant to be around? or is it that my phone/msn/email only works one way...? I don't know, it's just at times like these that I get rather fed up of being the one who makes the effort to get in contact. But I feel like I'm shooting myself in the foot because it will probably be turned around on me and I'll be made to feel bad, as per. oh well...

I am home. It feels rather weird! Missing my house and durham and friends already! Have had a really good term in general. Been rather pissed off with James lately for being a massive gay, but then so has everyone else!
One day i will be bored and I will have the energy to write a long entry on here detailing the term's events!!
Thank you for the card Laurie! I will try to update my journal more often, I just forget about it, and then when I remember, I am really busy!
I don't have your addresses so please let me know so I can send out my cards!
We should all have a get together for lunch or something one day :) I've been so crap at keeping in contact and I feel really rubbish about it!
Anyway, I am now home so let me know if anyone wants to do anything or if anyone is going out on a particular night :)
PS T - I have my straighteners for you :)

Formal tomorrow! Yay! Last formal was pretty damn good! These are a couple of photos of our table:
and here's a bit of my cutey cutey attic room! You can only see half of it in this picture, my bed and "cosy corner" are the other end of the room. :o)
ah, and a little something for a certain someone...

ahh if only you guys had Look North news...
was watching the news, anxiously awaiting the lunchtime neighbours, and what should be on Look North but a lovely item about speeding pensioners in shop-riders! Apparently in the Teeside Shopping centre the oldies zoom around a bit too fast, and the security men and police in the centre have to tell them to slow down! excellent news! Sadly my housemates weren't quite as excited as me and they didn't join my squeals of laughter at the old woman suggesting that they have a race! marvellous! I thought of you guys immediately! Rach was however a bit more amused by my stories of tessa and hannah nicking their grandma's shoprider and running the battery down, oh dear!
Hope you lot are all ok!

oh fucking hell. i just wrote a long entry and managed to delete it, so i'm majorly pissed off
basically
- formal last night! really like someone but he's rubbish. boys are rubbish.
- klute, bit gay
- lots of rowing and coaching! argh! loads and loads of early mornings, poo! outing cancelled tomorrow morning, lie in! yessssssssssss
- charity rugby match tonight, vs Nottingham uni, much heckling shall occur.
- Maracca coming up today to stay with dog (who lives on my road). Shall be seeing them at some stage. probs going out tomorrow night and getting completely lashed. ah well!
- working at spoons on sat and sun, so no nights in for me this week! never mind, i'll sleep when i'm old
that's all i can be arsed to re-type as i am a bit annoyed that the foolish thing deleted itself just because i hit the wrong button! argh
grr jonny housemate has an unhealthy obsession with Eric Prydz (esp the video) so I am educating him in the way's of Valerie by Stevie Winwood, the original Call on Me song!

yay! got our wireless network set up yesterday so I am fully net-able! yay!
uni is going alright, nothing too strenuous yet, well i would bloody hope not after just one week of lectures! Got myself a job at wetherspoons, go me! serving lots of drunk people insane amounts of double vodka and redbull for insanely cheap prices! people get very shocked when i tell them their drinks are 99p! carona is an annoying fool, stupid bits of lime.
been going out a fair bit and am now suffering the nice freshers fluness, yum. lots of crappy organising to do for rowing, argh. PYGgy car is breaking again, taking him home next weekend to get him seen to, hope the exhaust doesn't fall off on the A1 again, in the style of last summer, nice.
I had something else to say but I have forgotten it.
My college children are called Malcolm and Alan, excellent! Josh (my husband) wasn't very impressed that we got two sons and no daughters. I would have liked a daughter too, but Josh would just pull her, which would be scary. ah well! My room is very cute but it's big, just got a gay roof that likes to hit me on the head from time to time. nice. and my bed creaks like an old boat. gay. will be collecting my hifi, bedside table, pictures, papyrus, iron and other niceties that I can scab when I go home next week. might try to steal dad's bike, as if he wouldn't notice :oP
Saw tom deller yesterday, he has just started at collingwood college. saw Rachel Frobisher as well, think shes at Aidans. ooh and lovely jonny, phwoar! Dog lives on my street, seen him out a couple of times. And the most interesting person who i've seen was some girl called sophie who was year below us at school and is now at Hatfield. She came up to my friend Katie in the loos in Rixies and asked her if she had any COKE and then when I was talking to her she said she had to go off as she had a spliff waiting, in the middle of rixies, which is about as big as jaspers, riiiiiiiiiigggggggghhhhhht. like you would! so I was a bit dismayed that she was from our school and just asking any old random for class A drugs! gay
oh and now it's raining, and I have to walk to work in 2 hours, better bloody stop raining by then!
May be going to see Falcons vs Saracens on Sunday. think we'll have to leave early or get the metro, was a bloody nightmare when we went the other week, crappy traffic everywhere! took forever to get there, and I had to park PYG in a muddy field and he's all dirty now and he didn't like the HUGE ridges, boing boing boing. poor thing. ahh well, he'll have a spangly new exhaust this time next week.
I have managed to fix my timetable so that I have nothing on a friday, YAY! this means I am going home on thursday afternoon next week, can have some decent time at home :)
Now I reckon I should set about downloading some more music! yay! Will hopefully get some photos up when I finish my film and get it processed. Will be very strange drunken shots of rixies, god only knows whats on the film! hehe
PS
T - I am a lazy arse who can't be arsed to walk to the post office. Maybe your birthday will be three months late too ;o) hehe
EDIT
I remembered what I was going to say. Had a bit of a row with julian last night. He was being so uphimself and patronising, like he has been since he got to uni. Just really pissed me off, he was dissing people in durham, and going on about a load of crap he knows absolutely fuck all about. Apparently i am being "influenced by people who don't know Jack Shit" oh of course julian, you know all about durham. he was just saying all these ridiculous things and being so high and mighty. he really does seem to think that he has some kind of moral superiority. argh!!!!!!!
oh yeah and allegedly he shagged Hannah Parker. nice...

back in durham, woo! tis lovely and beautiful in the sun as always. had a couple of super nights, including a party at afrodave's house that got broken up by the police because the house was too full and there were about a hundred people stood in the street, drinking and making noise, oh well! great great great night in Rixies last night, everyone was there, including most HB freshers so we definitely had the largest voice and were over powering all the other colleges. My friend from mildert said "I love Hild Bede!!! You guys are great!!" because basically, Rixies on a monday is HB night and anyone who disputes that is a fool! we just take over the whole place and make a lot of noise. anyway, was soooooooo good! got chatted up by some rather nice chap in wetherspoons who later threw a rose across the room at me, aww! didn't see him again though, he said he didn't want to go to rixies with his scarf on, fool.
my house is lovely, my attic room is cute! will be getting broadband and network in a couple of weeks.
gtg now

well it has been brought to my attention that I haven't updated in ages, and this is very true! Just haven't really had the time or energy to sit and type at the computer after a day at work in the office or at the pub! anyway, I've been working at dad's work, doing crappy office admin. also been working at the pub as per. still got no money though, all gone on gay rent and car insurance. went to portugal for 10 days about 3 weeks ago, that was luvverly! Just me and dad and we were very lazy, just lying by the pool and eating out! hehe.
ooh robbie is on totp! hehe his new song is a grower I think, not too sure what all this Ouch ouch business is about! don't think it's really meant to make sense though!
went to scottyland last thursday to mum's new place. 'tis v nice, bit of a mess at the mo, but there is great potential, and mark's drawings for the extension look really good! went lobster fishing as well. Mark has bought a lobster business so we went out on the maiden voyage! I was driving the boat! Mark was very impressed, it would seem I have quite good sea legs! hah! We had to pull up about 18 lobster pots and cages (actually called Crills I think) which were attached to various buoys along the Loch. Was quite exciting, we got 2 lobsters and 2 big crabs to use in the restaurant. There were also loads of little crabs, starfishes, urchins, creepy crawlies and other random sea creatures! We had to put smelly scabby fish heads back into these little sacks in the cages to attract the lobsters. Per (pronounced Par), mum's Swedish chef, was very excited and made Lobster Tortellini with our catch! Very exciting!
Went to Devon on monday with mum to see Grandma and Auntie Julie. Was Grandma's court hearing for the settlement for her divorce. gay rubbish she has to give Peter prat £29,000 which means she has to sell the house. However, selling the house isn't the end of the world as she has a fancy man who she is going to marry(!) and move in with near Exeter. tis sad because I love the house and where it is, oh well! at least grandma is happy with her new chappy, who actually is a very old man! hehehe
got back home wednesday evening. lazed around yesterday and have been packing today, argh I hate it! god knows how Im going to fit everything into PYG! I gave him a wash yesterday, and then it started raining just as I finished, argh! then I hoovered the inside and washed the windows today! So PYG is nice and spangly! Put some air in his tyres today as well, ready for all the weight going in tomorrow, god only knows how all my stuff is going to fit!!
so I'm finally back up to durham tomorrow, term doesnt start for over a week though! crazy!
right well I'm off now, got to go to the pub and see the old men, oh lovely. will hopefully update more regularly in a few weeks when we get the broadband and network sorted out in the house! and I'll be eager for distractions from uni work!

aww I love As If!
went to watch the rowing last week. my friends in the 4 got into the final and the girls double won, so they are national champions again! They're in france at the moment representing GB in a match against france.
saw shrek 2 as well! v good! awww puss in boots is soo cute! mmmmmmmmm subway, yummy!
just been working and going out in the car with dead lately. went to norwich on monday, had an hour to run around the shops whilst dad was in his appointment. got a new skirt for work and a couple of boring t shirts and some cool boy pants!!
i made a cake the other day! its excellent! with apples and cinammon and yummyness!
met up with James yesterday in lincoln, was v good to see him! ate mexican (yummy) and watched spiderman, v good although i could basically write the plot for the third now (but I hope it won't be quite as predictable as what is shown at the end of the second!). think i need to watch the first one again, there were references back that I can't remember! In fact, I can hardly remember the first one at all! then went home and the thunder started, and the lightning and then the RAIN! oh my word that rain was immense! our garden flooded, the road flooded, the corner of the yard at work flooded, dad rang from the nav to say that water was pouring in there and it was flooded! craziness!
might be going to cinema this afternoon if mejulie rings me and if they arent seeing spiderman!

I need a digitalll camera, normal cameras are bloody expensive to run, but digital cameras are bloody expensive to buy! argh! I want to take more pictures and have them on my computer, all my photos are old and I look all different!
This weather can buggar orf! I'm going to watch the national rowing championships tomorrow and if the weather is gay then it will not be much fun at all! argh!
Went out in the car with dad today, down to stevenage and hitchin, very exciting indeed (hmm). read my book whilst dad had an appointment in this lovely country pub, all cutesy and old. then went on a nice mystery tour down teensy tiny tree tunnel country lanes, lovely!
should be meeting el tess tomorrow afternoon/evening after I've cheered at the rowing and got bored of the gay rain. grrr! still haven't found another job, there seems to be a distinct lack of temporary jobs in newark. so I am sooo bored during the days. need to pay my rowing club fees then I can go down the club whenever i want, but alas, that means money.
Anyone fancy going to Leeds on the friday? or is anyone already going?

so I try to sign in to my Durham email and it tells me there's been a "fatal error". Now, that seems a bit harsh. Surely email can't cause death? as that is what a fatality is! Bizarre!
