omg it's an update!!
I was about to do last week's Friday Five but then I thought, if I can take time off my work to do that, I can take time to actually make a proper update for once.
I'm in a bit of a rubbish mood today, which might have something to do with the fact that I stayed in last night to catch up on my work, but ended up eating pizza, watching the OC and wasting time on MSN =| I had to make stencils for this screen printing workshop today aswell, so I stayed up til 4am doing that... but because I'd stayed up so late I overslept and missed the workshop anyway - pointless!
Not aiming for anything more than a pass this year to be honest, and I reckon I'll only just scrape that. That's not me being cynical, it's me being realistic, and to be honest I don't really care. I'm so not motivated with this course at the moment. All I want is to get onto the degree course next year and actually be taught some graphic design techniques rather than being told "think of a theme. produce work on it." =| Is it surprising I'm not motivated!?
On a better note I think you'll all be pleased to hear that I've been behaving myself this term =D Haven't had to be looked after/propped up/carried home by anyone! =P Everyone's really proud of me, apart from Rachel who hasn't even seemed to notice (I still get the "I am NOT looking after you" line). Bit disappointing really, would have thought I'd proved myself by now =( Suppose it's gonna take a lot more than that though... sigh.
Anyway I'm gonna do what I came for... The Friday Five...
If you knew you were going to die on at specific day at a specific time, what's the last...
1. song you would listen to?: 'Last Summer' by Lost Prophets is the first song that springs to mind, mainly because I already want it played at my funeral (call me morbid!). It's just so fitting... it's happy and sad and beautiful and nostalgic all at the same time. Also because it reminds me so much of all my friends, as it's the theme tune on our little montage of videos =) I love it. (And we all sit around here in our home town // Listen to the waves as they all crash down // And watch the fire as it slowly burns away...)
2. book you would read?: I don't think any of the ones I've already read have been particularly amazing... I'd love to finally read the 'Fingersmith' novel!
3. person you would talk to?: This is a really hard question. I think it would have to be my mum, I'd tell her all the things I've never really told her enough, like how much I appreciate her.
4. food you would eat?: No doubt about it - it's gotta be marmite and cheese on toast! With sesame seeds!
5. goal you would accomplish?: This is gonna sound really... I don't know the word for it... but I would actually be devastated to die without having experienced sex =| Seriously!!
I'd be interested to hear other people's answers...
I feel better now I've taken time to write this and get some perspective on things =D Yay!
