My road today..
I finished my last post saying that I hope it wouldn’t snow or if it did that it wouldn’t close the college. Well guess what happened when I woke up late this morning? I looked at my phone for the time and panicked rushing outta bed and putting my college clothes on. I then peered outside the window to get blinded by the white stuff, plenty of the blinking white stuff. My parents confirmed that college wasn’t happening and I felt disappointed.
I went to look at Facebook quickly to see what people was up to with the snow and all. Turns out that they were planning to go to the Abby and make snowmans. I was debating joining them but when I stepped outside to take photos for this blog and twitter I thought otherwise. It was really cold and judging how pale they were in the photos, they felt it. They had a wonderful picture of the market square though with snow and it looked quite odd. It was neat how the council gritted the paths though and it turned out to made good sections for different people creations.
Like most of the week though, I was hanging around the house being bored. I was tempted to tidy it but I lacked the effort or the drive to do so. I had a lovely hot bath though and while the bath was running I repaired this sliding fabric door with matching white duck tape. You could call the repair I did was rather dodgy, neat is most certainly not a word to describe job I did.
Anyway, I really do not want it to snow tomorrow. Well I do as I don’t like Friday mornings but I hoping reverse thingy wotsit will work on the weather system like it did on the last post.
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.
Its my second day of being at college and its the best decision I made so far. It is different type of learning than it was at school which I really love. I’m not overloaded with all kinds of different subjects and I can just focus on three main things: Media, English and Photography. The college grounds is a nice size and it was easy to get used to the layout of the place. They have decided to paint every wall in the college and spent lots of money for all these buckets of paint.
It was really strange with groups on the first day but its getting better already. I disliking the breaks at the moment as I’m stoned bored. I really need to find some good mates I can have a laugh with as the current people I hang with just act like nobs. Hhmm
Today wasn’t good as the group I was with didn’t work well with this chav who wanted to be director but didn’t really direct or manage the group really well. He needed to tell what people was meant to do and planned as a group before we started filming. I would of done a much better job at it! And to top it off, it was outside filming with heavy rain so my afternoon dentist appointment looked really glorious to me.
There is a lot of sexy people at college which is good eye candy for me.
It been like the first time I been properly attracted to girls. I had to control myself not to drool over them. I just wanted to cuddle everyone in reaching distance. Well within certain conditions that they wasn’t old.
I’m one of the eight from my college to first get the NUS extra card as I was a early ordering the card and ordered the 2007 one by mistake, however NUS noticed though and corrected it for me. NUS has aload of website bugs to smooth out before uni students get their hands on the website.
I will be taking more photos within the few weeks. I got tomorrow off so I’m going into Oxford. Haha!
