Night of parties!!
Well I started the evening in Cafe Jazz with the Hall Group, after a time spent at Claire house. Then I went onto Tiger Tiger for Sarah Cole's B'Day party. There was a Chocolate party going on there which was good! Consumption of Chocolate seemed like it was written into the rules!!
Didn't get to bed till late and up early as usual (though NO celeb's to report this arvo!), followed by an abcolutely amazing lunch at The Armless Dragon. It was Laura's Celebratery lunch for us as a house!!

Guess who I saw..?!!
Thats right Konnie Huq..!! She got off the train this morning in Cardiff and I tried to give her a 'Metro'..!! (Tried being the word!!) One of the other guys had more sucess!!Last night I returned to my normal Sunday night haunts of the 'Heath' pub for Karaoke! No solo performance (you will be glad to hear!) though a group of us sang Bohemian Rapsody!!
The past weekend has been one of late nights whilst being home alone. Still it meant that Dayo and I were able to watch a brilliant 'Hustle' on Friday night!! Saturday night went out for a mates 20th B'day bash!! By the end of the night a small group of us a split off the main group and ended up keeping the dance floor at 'Edwards' bar going!!
Out again this evening with the Hall group 'GO event at the 'Jazz Cafe' and then another party at 'Tiger, Tiger'....Its all GO!!!!
Rich si back from SA...I can't wait to cacth up with him properly on Wed...

Early mornings...
I like it! I don't know about you but I think it is a good watch, even if it is to see how not to do things..!!
Last night I was shattered!! It might be due to a hard training session on Tuesday evening at NIAC?! Then to get up the next morning is a real effort. I am meant to be going running this evening, but even this entry is proving hard to write! I need a snooze!
What is also really annoying is that I can't give blood this time round, due to having a MMR jab only a few weeks ago...!!
Time to go home.....zzzzz

Melbourne - it's like I'm living there or something!!
Today has been a day based around the city of Melbourne..!! What with the "Commonwealth Games" and then "Neighbours"..!!Also it has been a day of 'HIGH' Drama... story lines in Neighbours and medals won in the games!
Went to Hall Group last night for the first time since handing over the position to Marnie, Ami, Emma and Mike!! It didn't half feel weird, but cool at the same time! It reminded me of my 'Uni Hall days'...........Ah! Such Memories....!!
Also another exciting thing to report:- I witnessed a couple spending well over a £100 in Lidl!! A landmark I am sure that you will agree?! Still one down side that they had to cope with was the 'double' trolley scenario that then faced them!!

Holidays..
This week, I reckon is going to be strange as I have only one Tutorial to go to and work in the morning..!! That is it!!
However, Word Alive is only TWO WEEKS away so that is keeping me busy!! Have just composed the food list (very important!!) for the week which has taken some time. One slight 'problemo' is the fact that we are still not sure whether we are going to be able to get a minibus yet?! The union seem to be 'messing' Simon around a lot...No change there then!!

Day of relaxation..
Thought I would put in a photo of my Bro, Sis and me..!!Apart frombeing a paper boy this morning it has been a day of relaxation and enjoying the Commmwealth games (espescially the 7's!!) Therefore, family news:
Rich is coming back soon which will be good, he is currently in Cape Town, relaxing and seeing the sights. I He is then travelling back to Durban on a special safari that will take him up to the day he flies home!!
Holly is getting bored, it sounds like, at home (don't worry we will be both home soon..!!) whilst training for the Ten Tors event, getting less and less enthusastic about it everyday. Also, Holz is spending Mum's and Dad's money buying tracks off of "I-Tunes".
(Don't ask me why but I thought I would give short summary on what my family is up to!!)
However the highlight has got to be the new Kitchen being fitted next week at home!!
(Random I know, but nothing else exciting to talk about!!)

Keepng busy..!!
Had an exam this morning in Neuro...Went better than I expected, which is good!!
What was wierd was getting a bit of a 'lie in' to 8am this morning instead of the normal 5:30am..!! I wasn't working this morning and I kinda missed it in a funny way. I woke at 6 and thought that I had missed my alarm but then I remembered..!!
Well, I have now finished any official lecture for the this year....its now just any extra tutorials and the exam in the summer!! For the next few weeks its going to be revision and working as a 'glorified' "Newspaper-delivery-boy!!"
"The Commonwealth Games" is CLASS!! It has already provided me with a large amount of entertainment, withthe swimming amd Rugby 7's to say just two things!! OH, HOW I LOVE SPORT!!
Athletics training this evening, with a new session being used, then tomorrow I working, its another early start again!! I am going to be shattered!!

Work begins
Getting up was the easy part of this morning..!! It was the working in the rain and trying to move around 600 papers that was the hard thing..!!It was fun though the organisation of the morning wasn't quite suited to a Cardiff based audience!! I had never heard of this paper until last night..!! People were funny about accepting a free newspaper..!!
Up until last nights briefing, I thought that I was handing out leaflets for a new bar/club, or the "Metro's"club already in Cardiff!! Apparently, its a big Newspaper around the country...??!!No One told me!!
(Plymouth hasn't got a Starbucks yet so I can't imagine us gettin this newspaper for a while yet!!)

Hunt has finished
I have got a job..!!
The only down side is that I have to get up really early in order to catch comuters coming into Cardiff on the train at..wait for it...wait for it.........6:45 in the morning!!! That is when I start work, therefore I am going to have to get up at even earlier!!! I then finish 10 in the morning!!!

Alternative CU....
Well Dayo had a group round in order to watch some films..!! The agreement was that we were going to watch both a girls film and a guys film during the evening!! There was also a large amount of pizza and other such junk food in order to keep us all happy!! I was all good!!Moulin Rouge is an interesting film though I have decided that some seroius drug abuse must have happened during the making of it, on the side of the Director, Producer and Writters!! RANDOM springs to mind!!!
S.W.A.T is a quality film and even though I have watched it quite a few times in the past i can never seem to get bored of it!! There was also something for the girls - Colin Farral (sp?!)! I know this to be true as during one scene a "phwr" was heard from many of them...!!

Have handed in my agency for a house for next year..!!(I was hoping to get a photo of it off the internet but couldn't find one!!)
Yesterday evening was wierd not having any Hall Group!! I felt SOOO empty without it but cool that the new people where able to fully take it over!!
Heard from Rich today and yesterday, which is cool!! Can't wait to catch up with him!! He is meant to be coming up in the last week of term in order to get his pasport done as he needs it for Mexico! (Rich take not if you are reading this!) Then he can drive me home instead of me taking the train!!
Taking of trains I need to book mine for Word Alive!!!

Last night was truely Amazing!ALO was on whilst we came in, they are good to!! Then Jack Came out for a surprise song to wet out appetite's!! Matt Costa then came out and did a quality set...(the excitement was unbelieveable by now!) The Atmosphere was immense!!
Then Jack Came out and did an absolute BLINDER of a set during which I think he only said about 5 sentences and the rest was just playing and swaping guitars over between songs..!! Matt Costa came back onand the remixed one of his songs and one of Jacks together!!
I was so full of it that I bought a T Shirt...!!!(see above!)
Mens Convention tomorow!! But this evening there is the CIS netball Tournament!!

Had the Revive social round at our house last night so I watched a film with Charlee and Laura coming in on the really gory bits!! One of the many advantages of last night was the beer and food that I got, thanks to "me-man Charlee!" (LEGEND if you ask me!!)
