Well, that weekend sucked.
I had a pretty clear plan on Friday. Was going to head off to the gym for the first time and stop at the library so I could spend the rest of the weekend on coursework. Then I started to feel off, so I decided to go on Saturday. Big mistake. I felt absolutely crap on Saturday, with what must've been my third major cold in two months.
I had no energy and my throbbing head was only made worse by the constant fireworks last night. I really hate Bonfire night. Don't get me wrong, I think fireworks are as pretty as the next person, but I've always had an irrational fear of loud bangs and explosion. I start to freak out if I'm around a large number of balloons, so this time of year is pretty much torture. Why can't they just stick to the one night instead of firing them off for weeks before and after as well?
I'm feeling much better now, but I hardly got any work done, so I'm gonna have to work extra hard this week to make up for it. A bad end to a pretty lousy week, since I only managed to make it to about half my lectures and seminars for various reasons. Gotta do better this week. Oh, and to top off my irritation, Westlife are at number one. Fucking Westlife. Why haven't they called it a day yet? Now, I like all types of music and am generally of the attitude that people can enjoy whatever music they want. I don't care if it's cool or not, if it makes them happy, it's fine with me - but when it comes to Westlife, my fury is uncontainable.
I don't know why I hate them so much. Maybe because they release one dreary ballad after another (50% inferior covers) and the little girlies eat up whatever they do. Maybe it's the general air of superiority I sense about them that gets me so angry. Maybe I'm jealous of their ability to make thousands of people scream at them just by standing up. Even having one of them come out as gay (which will normally make me sympathetic to anyone) couldn't make me relent, and their latest crime - releasing a cover of a song originally done just two years ago by a far superior artist, Josh Groban, who didn't get much publicity because he's a classical artist - is by far the worst. Idiots.
I realise that I've been extremely whiney and nasty in this post, and I apologise, but after this weekend, I really needed to try and get rid of some of my negativity. Hopefully, this week will go much better and I can finally sort out my coursework. I will also try to play around with LiveJournal a bit. since I still don't know how most of it works and I would like to make some changes. I also need to start letting people know I exist on here, since I think that there's only one person reading this at the moment (hey sweetie). I mean, I do appreciate this place for it's theraputic writing value, but I want to use it to keep in touch with people as well, and that's not really happening right now.
