Well its been a while since I sat down and wrote. Last couple of weeks have been uneventful, days blending into the next. There are now 5 UCLAN students all together: me, Sarah, Andy, Damian and some Lithuanian who's name I can't remember.
26th of august i took everyone bar Damian to FSC to sign contracts. Everything went ok, except the Lithuanian who had arrived too late to go and register/get a bank account and everything. Useless.
This weekend however something memorable happened. Friday night, after work I went to a place called "poolcity" with Andy, Sarah, Damian and a guy called 'Sib' who was a student from Brazil who stayed out here 7 years ago. We stayed there till about 10, then moved onto the local beer festival going on at the moment; where I had been warned to stay clear of. (Sven had said the people from the rough parts of the city went there).
We saw things like "fish on a stick" however never actually saw anyone eating one there and then, they all took them home. After there Andy+Sarah went home to bed. The 3 of us, that were left went to a bar called peaches, which had 2 floors and was a weird mix of: pizzas, cocktails and motorbikes. After that we went to an Irish bar called Murphy's where we had some chips and sat and talked. Both really nice guys and want to spend alot of time with them this year. Finally got in about 1.30 and fell asleep watching mission impossible 3.
Saturday, woke up about 1pm. Was invited to Sib's house. He lives near the university, so got the same tram as I would for work early afternoon with Damo. We rented a film called sunshine. Some futuristic thing that turned a bit religious and american for my liking. Then played all night on the xbox on burnout, COD, Quake and table tenis, some I did well in. Got the last nightbus home at 3.30, didn't feel that late and had had a fun weekend, completely forgetting to email Heather.
Sunday was a typical lazy day, got up quite late and just played a bit of WoW as I hadn't in a while. Evening when Heather got home from work I got it though, which wasn't a nice close to the weekend. Also finally tidied all my room, after the cleaners had moaned at all the stuff on the floor, etc. Looks bigger now, have bed by the window and desk by the door, more me, although I'm sure it will all move around again soon when it comes to tidying again.
Work is getting better, not sending me to slep much, I'm getting a grasp for what I'm doing, although most of my day seems to be spent scratching my head thinking of the solutions to the problems I'm giving myself.
