Since the last post I called up the phone insurance company which promptly sent out a brand new phone to me for the old one. I found this rather neat as the phone I had were a refurb meaning I didn’t have any of the wires or charger even. I had to send so many emails to get that charger.

Anyway. Lets talk about Friday. Well, I didn’t have a phone so therefore it ended up meaning that I didn’t have a alarm to wake me up resulting on me oversleeping and waking up 10 mins before the lesson.

Thankfully I kept hold of the postcard the media people gave me which had the tutor number and called her up. She told me that they were in a different room and when I reached the college, I stepped into that room but got a shock when I found it was grannies on computer. I tried explaining I got the wrong room and I was a student but they couldn’t work Word out. I quickly told them about it and dashed out wondering were the class was. I worked it out in the end and managed to caught up with the work.

In the afternoon, it was video production. Gah! I thought I would of loved this subject when I joined the course but the only thing I don’t mind about it is the editing which I still only know the basics of. In the subject, everybody group is making two adverts. Well the adverts I made suck. I mean, come on.. I’m mumbling in the adverts! Then to rub thing into the womb, Tiff and Key flipping join the group which I can’t argue about as Tiff is the girlfriend of the person I’m working with and they done crap all!

Towards the end of the day, they suggest leaving early and as we managed to get away with it last time. I just went along with it as I wasn’t really enjoying being there.

So yeah that was Friday.

I went to Oxford Uni Press today. it was rather good as I got to look at some real printed books from decades ago, and the such as a real press machine which was made of heavy metal. Some of the books I held cost more than you thought they would of costed. It was a better alternative to writing loads on prints in some ways however I don’t have any notes from the trip which makes it more differcult for when I write things up.

James, Micheal, and me was at standing up as all the seats was taken up when we were waiting for bus when a chavett (which is a teen mum) whacks her pram into my feet. She woke me up dammit.. She asks if she could get pass even though she could anyway. I mutter to myself ‘No you cant’ thinking she wouldn’t hear me but I said it too loudly. I am a baddass.

This meant she got pissed off at me and I nearly risked getting stabbed or something like a slap. i thought she would just carry on walking on but she stopped infront of me and starting talking quite fast. I thought if I just stared down and didnt give her eye contact would mean that she knew I wasn’t starting a fight. I think it worked..

College has really changed my behaviour alot.. At school I hardly swore and was the teacher pet for everything. Being a school kid you could get away with something like that like I always did when i caught the bus. not without a uniform it would seem.

Eugh! i got to carry on writing a ten page eassy. lovely..

Today I didn’t have to go to college but was forced to meet up at Oxford to go to the cinema. Before leaving the house, I decided that having breakfast would be a bad idea as I was unwell last night resulting in being sick.

To get there I managed to get a lift with my Mum. She thought she would try to avoid the traffic by going a different route but it didn’t really do much difference as we clashed with the school run. However, I was one of the first people to arrive at the meeting point. It was raining lightly which was a pain but it didn’t stop me not diving for cover. I am manly dammit! The market was there and it was selling some real crap that you normally see in charity shops. Also there was these random dull coloured stones on sale which was pointless.

Once every media student from each of the college campuses arrived (some I never saw before in my life but they wasn’t that social to us), we walked to the cinema to the displeasure to some vechiles on the road which had to wait for a whole crowd to cross the road because we could. Go us! It wasn’t a complicated walk as it was a straight line but some of the paths was narrow which sucks when you are in a massive crowd.

There wasn’t any waiting outside when we arrived at the Phoenix cinema and went straight to the seating as the college rented it out. We was there to see a movie called ‘The Wackeness’ that had lots of scenes of drug use, boobies and bare bums. Mmm, It was alright I suppose but it could of moved faster in parts as it felt really long. I felt like I entered the place as a 16 year old and left as a 50. It didn’t help that I had a piece of paper stuffed in my back pocket that I forgotten about that made sitting on uncomfortable and that the room was stuffy.

I left with the shock of sun light, walking back to the city centre with some people I met and some mates managing to go a different route to the main group of students. We laughed at the market again when we saw this cowboy jacket and some lame dresses. I stared at some movie posters but it ended up with me leaving them to it as I got fed up with their slow speed.

I decided to skip lunch in Oxford but should of brought a drink when I dashed to the bus stop. I couldn’t make my mind up with what bus I should catched. I know which two I wanted but it ended up with me going on the slow one as the express bus wouldn’t take my tenner as she already gave change for a tenner. Dam her.

I got in Abingdon for late lunch at Dominos which I ate on the jounary walk home. I had great pleasure eating the pizza whilst walking and staring at the traffic. I’m multi talented.. what can I say? I couldn’t eat my dinner which consisted of fish and chips as I was feeling sick again. I’m hungry now though so I think its a case of microwaving it. How yummy is that.. Not! :[

I have tomorrow off but it will be a case of slumping around the house feeling unwell yet again feeling starving as I don’t feel like eating as I hate being sick. I need to eat something though as I’m slim currently.
