Still playing Neopets.

Anyone remember Neopets?
I loved it when I was 13.
I’ve rejoined and I’m re-addicted.

Everything is booked.

Things I really really need to do today:
Call my uni library and pay my fines.
Put my tutoring advert in the local paper.
Buy ensemble music.
Work on my dissertation.
Set up my blog for Ensemble 2.
Things I will probably do:
Nothing.
Fab day.
Tom took me out for lunch (Pinto, of course) then bought me a bellini and a glass of bubbly at TGIs. Best boyfriend.
So happy.
I got all firsts for my exams from trimester 1, Tom’s taking me out for a celebratory burrito at Pinto and then for drinks, our New Zealand flights have almost been finalised, and my next graze box arrived.
THIS IS A GOOD DAY.

haha. it was a requirement our senior year to do a marriage project! We were assigned fake jobs, fake income and so forth. I still have my book that has everything in it. haha
NO. WAY. Hahaha that’s absolutely mad! Why did...

Uni killed me.
Actually so glad this is my last few months of it. I am done with education.
And now to start my career working in education…
My dad finally approves of me being a brass tutor.
This is a good day.
I can't put into words how much I do not want to...
GFSHDJKGHDSKJDFHGJKDAHDFKJS :(
Tom’s watching that 127 Hours.
I’m ignoring it, no way am I watching someone hack off their arm. Fuck dat.
Did some pilates to try and get motivated to do some work.
Didn’t help.

eilidhbrian replied to your post: ok enter shikari aren’t number 1, excited post was…
How the fuck did they fall to #4?! I hate the UK music scene.
I know :/ but I think number 4 is still a pretty great achievement for a such a small, own label band in a scene full of shit auto-tuned music about broken hearts and slutty girls.
It is, I agree. Still, shame the general public...
I don’t want to do any uni work, I want to sit playing The Sims all day.
Someone should come shopping with me today.
It’s my last day of freedom before I become insanely stressed again. Do not want to go back to uni.
Reading chocolate cake recipes online when I’m on a diet.
WHY AM I TORTURING MYSELF LIKE THIS.
I’ve been invited to a 21st in Edinburgh and a night out in Glasgow tonight.
My uni workload means I cannot go to either.
H8.
I love writing lesson plans.
Maybe I should be a teacher.
swearingisforartstudents:
There is way too much I want to say but I just don’t have the strength. I’m so beyond sick of music elitists insisting that their opinion and the only valid opinion.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
My biggest hate in life - let people listen to what they want, it does not affect you in any way.
Tek-One opening for Shikari in March.
Hell yes.
My only wish is that they were the main support, not a Young Guns fan really.
It’s a Machine Head kinda day.
Bring it on, dissertation.
It would appear that I got paid today.
Lovely surprise to wake up to!
Today is being spent on my dissertation since I have a meeting on Monday. I also need to exercise my arse off since I haven’t been able to the last couple of days thanks to work.
Ooh and I’m making up my lesson plan for this tutoring session I’m doing next week. Making up handouts and everything. I’m way too excited to get paid for something...
I usually post about how terrible work was.
This post is no different.
So boring, so shite, so eughhhh. Done.
Do not want to go to work today.
I don’t want to go to work any day really, but today especially. My best work pal has the day off, there will be nothing to do, and the weather’s shite. Fml.
Eugh I cannot wait until March.
Neeeed to see Shikari live.
I have my first dissertation adviser meeting of...
Queue mental breakdown.
Work today.
Eughhh I hate work just now, so so boring. People don’t buy anything in January.
I'm loving being so healthy just now.
Definitely feel so much better when I’m exercising and eating healthy.
I suppose it’s a good thing I’m not in London because I’d be drinking loads of alcohol and eating fatty foods. Need to keep up this diet!

Still hungry after dinner.
FML.
Well Tom ate the entire Graze Box.
Fucksake Tom, it’s called GRAZING, not DEMOLISHING IN 5 MINUTES.
Home-made tomato soup with half of the tomato,...
I actually really want to go to Download this...
The Prodigy
Chase & Status
Machine Head
Lamb of God
Enter Shikari rumoured
Metallica
Black Sabbath
DevilDriver
Trivium
Devin Townsend
etc
I mean omg, why are people complaining about this line-up? It’s fucking INCREDIBLE.
Anyone want a free graze box thing?
They sent me an email with a code to forward to friends if they wanted a free box.
Also just got my first one in the post, can’t wait to eat it!
Hate that 'Wowcher' advert.
I’m just like ‘shh’.
I can’t wait until March.

Hurry uuuuuuup.
I'm craving a burrito from Pinto so bad.
Eughhhh, why did it have to be so good? Might have to get one after work tomorrow or something, or before work on Thursday. CAN’T RESIST.

Planning to go to Download with Polly and Amy.
We refuse to live without a bathroom so this may be expensive.

Just been asked to teach an adult to read music and they’ve offered me £20p/h.
HOLY. SHIT.
Sitting doing dissertation research while people...
Life suuuuuucks.
Tom and I tried to go to Nando’s today but it was fucking packed so I’ll never ever know how apparently amazing it is.
However we went to Pinto on Queen Street and I could eat there forever. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.
So jealous of everyone going to see Shikari next...
Wish I was going so bad, but unfortunately can’t afford it right now. I’ll just have to wait until March.
Working a lot next week so that should keep my mind off it.
Plan for today:
Shower
Breakfast
Bus into town
Meet Tom
Force him to go shopping.
I like today.
Just ordered my first ever graze box.
Excitedddd!
