Why is it, no matter how well general life is going, when things continuously go wrong at work it can make everything feel like shit?

For over three months now I've been having problems with the lab work and nothing I try seems to help much :(

been to see four movies in the past five weekends, so just a quick summary:
Tropic Thunder - hilarious.
Taken - gripping
Righteous Kill - ok but disappointing as I had high expectations
Rocknrolla - typical Guy Ritchie. Fun, action :)

On a final note, went to Liverpool to meet up with minions_wanted and from there we went to Manchester Apollo to see Disturbed ( Read more... )

As it's been well over a month since my last post I thought I'd write a bit before I forget what I've done and seen. But only in brief ( Read more... )

Figured I'd do a bit of an update over lunch at Uni. So movies first, went to see Mamma Mia with Kate & Katy and it was fab :) So much fun. The music was like it had been written for the movie and not the movie for the music. The scenery was gorgeous, and the storyline really funny. Big thumbs up.

Went to see the new Indiana Jones movie at the cinema - obviously ( Read more... )

Just had a most excellent evening, hanging with friends, eating yummy mexican food, eating even more yummy ben & jerrys ice-cream (new arctic flavour - vanilla with white chocolate polar bears and marshmallow pieces) and watching Iron Man at the cinema ( Read more... )

Well I've been totally slack at posting recently, so have decided to post a brief update that will probably miss out 99% of what I've been up to!

Not been to the cinema anywhere near as much as I would have liked to. But I have made it to see two movies, the accidental husband and 27 dresses both of which were good, fun, chick-flicks ( Read more... )

Went to see National Treasure: Book of secrets with dalryth last Thursday. What a fun film :) Not sure if its just because its more recent, but I think I may have preferred it to the first ( Read more... )
