So, tonight you were supposed to get "Star Trek: The Voyage Home" commentary. Mum and I were watching, Dad was watching and pretending that he wasn't while getting ready to go to the pub. We were at the 56 minute mark when Dad pointedly said "You don't have to give it back tomorrow, do you ( Read more... )

Life is being politely quiet lately. This is to prepare for the start of my course on Monday, I suppose. I shall enjoy it while it lasts ( Read more... )

I have another interview! Supposedly, anyway - they phoned, said "We have your application for that graduation thing, we're just checking to know if you want an interview." I said "Yes!" she said "We'll send a letter with the details." Which they haven't sent yet. So I don't actually know what the interview is for at all! :D Oh well ( Read more... )

They did NOT get back to me. *grinds teeth* To be fair, it turned out this wasn't their fault - Human Resources are being shit (this was very funny actually as my parents took the message, hung up the phone and promptly had a massive bitch-fit about the Human Resources whom they have met before!)

What do I find but an article saying that a "scientific study" has apparently found women only listen properly if they're eavesdropping on other people or if you're ( Read more... )

Did a mini-marathon of Ashes to Ashes to watch Season 2. Failed slightly but am now up-to-date and thus loving the Iplayer! I liked Season 1 a lot actually, although it has to be pointed out that out of eight episodes, they found three separate excuses to shove Alex in hookerwear. It wasn't TOO bad but the fact of the matter is, it happened and it' ( Read more... )

Oh crap. I feel really rather ill. I know it's just a cold but I feel sore and my throat really hurts and my head aches and afiodsjfosadnhfasiuoghfj UGH. *curls up miserably* Some start to the New Year!
