(1 tooth mark | Bite Me) [08 Nov 2004|11:34am] Just realised that i have not updated since August 10th which is SHAMEFUL! That was almost 3 months ago. I am a useless liverjournaler. It's becuase we dont have internet in my house and i have to use the computers in the law library where there are actually only about 2... so anyway its monday morning and i'm at me mams house (where of course i do have the internet). Maroon 5 yesterday was SUPER! And it was great to see everyone. now have to contemplate a fun filled week of hardcore studying which SUCKS and there is no other news with me that i didnt tell you all yesterday love me xx p.s. meg and matt i hope you got home ok last night?

(Bite Me) [10 Aug 2004|09:54am] [ mood | Rough ] [ music | kanye west - thru the wire ] Work was dead last night so my manager let me go at 11. Boss and boouncer man persuaded me to stay for a quick drink before getting the bus. Then persuaded me to have a few more and get next bus. Then offered to pay for taxi. Basically i was still at work at 3am and absolutley off my face and hadnt spent a penny. Then wicked bouncer man gave me a lift home. And now i have to go back in and do a day shift. Ghay. - Have soem self control girl! i.feel.rough. I also had to endure old boss dan being very very lechy all night - this is a new side to him. kept trying to grind dance and then dragged me outside - where i promptly asked him how bonny, his girlfriend was doing, and that was the end of that. Also whne klee did a name job guessing thing yesterday i came up with air hostess! and when i told dan that that was what i was gunna be when i grow up he told me that the first thing him and nathan said when they met me was that i would make a great air hostess! either that or porn star... xx

(1 tooth mark | Bite Me) [03 Aug 2004|04:09pm] [ mood | tired ] [ music | avril lavigne - happy ending ] I am very pissed off becuase a couple ordered a bottle of champaigne at the bar last night - the most expensive bottle we do aswell - so off i trotted to open it and put it in ice and get some glasses - upon my return they had disappeared - the buggers had ordered the bottle and then just left - i searched and searched for them but could not find them for love nor money - so now i had an open bottle of champainge that no one was buying and i now couldnt sell - BASTARDS but at least that meant we got to drink it! but i did sell more than anyone else last night - so ha bloody ha! other than that there is no more news from the natalie camp - excpet that i am sat here sweating my face off i am so hot - this stupid weather! and i'm going to see the jerry springer opera next week - hurrah! now time for some personal messages... katy - its your birthday next week - that means drunken fun and presents! megan - stop running away at weekends - we miss you! alex - hurry up and get with hot guy! steph - hurry up and come home! nic - you work way tooooo hard and i hardly ever see you anymore! and kayleigh - i have nothing really to say to you apart from to tell you that your fabulous!

(2 tooth marks | Bite Me) [16 Jul 2004|11:25pm] its my birthday tomorrow and then its kayleighs the day after. i have a fun birthday weekend of celebrations to look forward to. so why arent i more happy? xx

(Bite Me) [17 Jun 2004|06:25pm] tomorow i must leave the hall that is gold... this makes me sad i'm trying to avoid packing up my room by updating this thing - my walls are so bare, my stamp on this room has gone :( i got half my results and totally did better than i thought i would - all that last minute revision really did pay off! (68, 66 and 64) we just booked plane tickets to belfast for next week rather spontaneously i'm now going to eat (a) mexican and say some goodbyes but then i get to say some hellos tomorow! xx

(Bite Me) she needs a golden calculator to divide... [15 Jun 2004|08:04pm] The goldney ball was fab - all very posh and drunken. i was proud to be the first casualty, right before leaving the toilets with my skirt tucked in to my teeny tiny thong! i'm finding it very hard to type because of my stupidly long acrylics so gunna make this short and sweet (like me!) am leaving goldney on friday which makes me sad becuase i love love it here - the grass, the sun, the people... but i get to spend time with my other favourite people which will be fun - yippee! xx

(8 tooth marks | Bite Me) shit.certainly.does.happen. [21 May 2004|10:36pm] [ mood | disappointed ] [ music | goo goo dolls - iris ] Just when you thought things were finally running smoothly life just comes and bites you on the arse. and i dont mean to always be complaining becuase i have had just the most amazing year - but it has been consistently interspersed with very shit pieces of news. this week being no exception xx

(2 tooth marks | Bite Me) [09 May 2004|11:07pm] How are things with nat? well she is currently not sleeping due to stupendous amounts of revision yet still managing to go out more or less every night - bad natty! i went for cheese and bisquits at simons the other night - i had brie, camenbert and boursin and i actually enjoyed it - my dad'll be so proud! and since claire is leaving uni we have been advertising for a new flatmate. we interviewed the first one today and i actually felt like i needed to take a shower after meeting him! i felt violated just being in his presence. you wouldnt beleive what i told you about him but lets just say that his favourite past time was to go to the forrest with his sewing machine. it gets worse but i cant bear thinking about it - he gave me the heebiejeebies! and finally, me and monica have had a bit of a bust up. you see i hadnt seen her for over a week becuase she has more or less moved in with her boyfiend. so i finally get her to come to the cinema with us. the boyfriend then calls her half way through so she leaves to meet him (not even an hour into the film!). its a fucking joke. and she says were drifting becuase i spend too much time with friends outside goldney hall - but i'm sorry if i choose to spend time with people who actually want to spend time with me and are not wishing they were actually with their boyfriend the whole time! if things go badly with him shes gunna realise that she has no one left and to be honost i dont know if i actually want to be there to pick up the pieces this time. but other than that i am actually happier now than i have been for a long time and extremely excited about incubis next weekend! xx

(5 tooth marks | Bite Me) belle of the ball... [01 May 2004|06:09pm] Not to take my lead from kate or anything but... I brought a preeeeety dress for my summer ball! Its a pink corset top with an ever so lovely swirly ivory skirt with preety diamond type thingemys on it (and no dahling its not diamante since this is a proper posh do). and the lady said i looked like a fairy princess when i put it on So actually its a top and a skirt - which means i can mix and match for furture balls - couldnt be more perfect. and no i'm not gunna tell you how much it cost becuase it gives me a heart attack just thinking about it! Now i just need some shoes to go with it... i'm very, significantly afraid that i will fail my exams and have to retake in summer - no honestly i am currently getting about 2 hours sleep a night due to sheer immense of work i now have to do which i really should have done at the time - well at least i've learnt for next time! Love to you all my sweet chickens xxx

(5 tooth marks | Bite Me) [21 Apr 2004|05:48pm] I used the word 'whom' in a sentence for the very first time today - i am very proud of myself. am currently panicking at the sheer amount of revision i should have done already and all the revision that i still have to do. i'm trying to revise Descates at present, but you see i barely turned up to any of those lectures so all my notes are those becky had photocopyed for me when she was here. every handhout i have is surrounded by her distinctive scrawl - just makes the whole thing a little harder i guess on a more cheerful note we did too many weights at the gym yesterday and now my boobs hurt chao xx

(Bite Me) [12 Apr 2004|08:45pm] I've been back in Reading for over 3 weeks now and on sunday i have to go back to bristol which will just mean that exams will be looming even closer... Monica came down to Reading these past 4 days which was really fun. I put her on a train this morning. I came onto the train to help her with her bags and i was just hugging her when the doors locked shut and the train man blew his whistle. I had to scream out that i needed to get off but the man wuldnt let me - said i was delaying the train. But i made with the little girl crying face and eventually he let me off. So then i got on a train back to tilehurst, except instead of stopping at tilehurst it carried on straight throught to oxford. So there i was in oxford, and what else do you do in oxford but shop? So i did! I had very bad luck on the trains today it would seem. Going to scooooootland tomorrow which involves an 8 hour train journy - great (!) xx

(2 tooth marks | Bite Me) Sweetest goodbye... [15 Mar 2004|03:17pm] [ mood | numb ] [ music | Incubis, Drive ] You didnt know Becky but in the official university email that was sent round this week it spoke of how determinded she always remained to live a normal life despite everything she suffered. Word. I just wish i would have made the time to tell her that myself in those last few weeks. How much i cared for her and appreciated her friendship and how much i admired her amazingly positive outlook on life. How much fun we used to have together. There was certainly no one quite like Becky. 'Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glint on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you wake in the morning hush, I am the swift, uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circling flight. I am the soft starlight at night. Do not stand at my grave and weep. I am not there, I do not sleep. Do not stand at my grave and cry. I am not there, I did not die.' xx

(2 tooth marks | Bite Me) [08 Mar 2004|10:35pm] ok so the phrase missed the point springs to mine a great injustice was seen here in goldney tonite when my mate liz did not get president of the jcr - in need of a little tlc methinks i'm going on a blind date next week for charidee - unfortunitly what i didnt realise is that it is to be held at fiesta havvanna - which is convenietly where i work so will have to endure the embarrisment of this being witnessed by my workmates i had an argument with a preacher guy today - how can one blindly accept faith without thinking about it critically? without examining the evidence? if there even is any evidence? i think studying theology has killed any faith i ever had. i'm confused and i think i will be for the rest of my life. i wish i was studying german. i wished i life in germany - then i could eat mentos to my hearts content. i wish i didnt like chocolate. i wish i could remember friday night. xx

(3 tooth marks | Bite Me) [01 Mar 2004|08:37pm] so, just got back from skiing and i think its safe to say that i am indeed a natural born skiier! I totally knew how to do it and only fell down 3 times in all. the thing is once your down it is actually impossible to get back up again and i never once managed to do it on my own. monicas family is so great and made us loads of great mexican food and they lived right on the promenade so we got to see the sunset over the sea which was really beautiful and her brother is reaaly fit (but considering he is only 16 thats kinda gross!) so everything was great until i had a tantrum in teh airport becuase the mean shop man wouldnt give me a goddam bottle of water becuase i didnt know how to say it in french. but i got over it and now i'm back and now i have to do two essays very quickly. i have to go and tutor students at teh local high school tomorrow and am more than a little frightened. eek Hope everyone else is fine xx

(4 tooth marks | Bite Me) Happy valentines everyone! [14 Feb 2004|05:11pm] [ mood | chipper ] [ music | tracy chapman - fast car ] Well so far this Valentines Day hasn’t been so bad. I got flowers and an anonymous card, which was really sweet but which I suspect came from one of my friends, but then maybe I shouldn’t be so cynical. Me and my girlies went out to lunch and spent the afternoon together, and watched all the couples around us being all romantic to a chorus of 'we dont men to be happy (but it would be nice on the sly)' I know I can seem ungrateful sometimes but when it comes down to it I do love Bristol and (many of) the people here. And it still amazes me that I can spend Friday night drinking beer and getting high at a scuzzy party but then spend Saturday afternoon playing the piano in the library/music room of our stately house with my friends. It’s might seem like a random mix but that is what life is like here. And to top it all off I have my oldscool crew who I know will be around forever. I also have a new job at a Spanish bar, so Monica is teaching me Spanish. I have to work tonight - but at least I will finally have a bit of money again. Uni has messed up my credit points for the year and since the deadline for getting your credits sorted was last Friday I many be royally screwed and might not be able to pass the year since I am apparently not registered for enough credits. In my defence I was only informed of the problem on Thursday and hopefully will be able to sort this all out on Monday. Which sucks because I was going to go home tomorrow, but am now not allowed. Arghhh. Hope everyone elses valentines is good. This time last year I was getting very drunk on megans vodka in order to go on blind date! Xx P.s. Klee I accidentally packed your baby doll top when I came back – do you want me to send it to you or just wait until I next see you?

(2 tooth marks | Bite Me) [12 Feb 2004|09:57pm] I kept myself so busy today that i think i've delayed my particularly cruel hangover until tonight. My vision is still blurred and i cant think due to the pain in my head. Note to self - never drink two bottles of wine and copious amounts of brutal looking shots on an empty stomach again. Me and my girlies bonded in a toliet cubicle, then tried to sneak into Rilelys pool hall on the firm belief that it was Subway, before Joel cooked us a mammoth fried breakfast at 4am - mmmmm mushrooms and vegetarien sausages. Had a bit of a catty fight with a girl in my seminar class today - pull your head out of your own arse you american, pretentious know it all i shouted at her (in my head) although there were plently of evil looks getting exchanged accross the table. And apparently i have only been doing 110 credit pints this year when i'm meant to have been doing 120 so now have to find another 10 point class half way through the bloody semester! why oh why is my maths so damn badm - i cant even do simple sums right! Went to cardiff to play with kate and nic yesterday and nearly got beaten up by some pikey girls on the way home for apparently 'looking at them funny' - the phrase what and ever springs to mind. And i start my new employment tomorrow which is awfully exciting and going to a party with some guys from UWE which means normal, non-posh men! i can hardly contain my excitement! xx

(5 tooth marks | Bite Me) [01 Feb 2004|06:13pm] i put all my washing into the tumble dryer for 2 hours accideently (it looked like a washing machine!). the dryer has been out of order ever since. steph came up to bristol for a mini roadtrip - rather entertaining. we found a house to rent next year - tis above a hairdressers and is super. i want to live there now but have to wait until september :( went to a fairytail party in which i dressed up as a fairy (of course). while getting ready one of my friends chased me round her flat trying to but a bra on me, however it was pretty clear to me (and everyone else) that i was already wearing a bra... perhaps it was all the wine we had consumed that had confused her procrastinated a great deal(i.e. i have now done only an hours work since i returned after christmas!) nic came to visit today, however for not such great reasons and i hope you and the others are ok this week. tell robbie i'm thinking of him and that your both welcome here whenever things get too tough there and you just want a break. i love you honx going to visit a friend who is really ill in hospital tomorrow - not a big fan of hospitals but i'm sure i'll deal. then going to klees on thursday! yippee! xx

(2 tooth marks | Bite Me) [24 Jan 2004|02:04am] ok so i'm drunk and writing an entry - never a good thing as they never tend to be awfully legible. attempted to go to the wedge however after queing for almost an hour lef with friend who was crying over boyfriend who had buggered off after a minor argument. we all came back to my kitchen and ate cheese and bisquits for a good couple hours. am now scared i will have nightmares. and worried becaasue part of their argument was over the fact tht he thinks i dont like him which caused tension beucase he didnt feel he could come over to our flat. ecept i do like hime and i think everyone just being a bit silly quite frankly - feel i must straighten things out somewhat haev to be up in 5 hours so should probably no go up the hilll to bedfordshire now. but i get to stephanh and alex and kllee tomoroow so i dont mind getting uo early. xx p.s. hope ur ok kleebeth - love u xx

(Bite Me) [12 Jan 2004|04:06pm] bitchassmutherfucking fone company! they wont pick up the freaking phone and sort this mess out. While my fone has finally started working it now thinks teh number is barred so i cant make any calls and no calls will get through to me. it is scarey how much i was dependent on my moblie - how does life work without one? but you can still ring me on 08707754822 if you need me. back at Goldney then. Hayley almost left this morning till i convinced her to stay. and house arrangements are prooving more difficult than we anticipated - i wish things could just be sorted out now. i wish i wish i wish... xx

(2 tooth marks | Bite Me) [04 Jan 2004|05:36pm] i feel blue. i want to leave uni/dont want to leave uni/want to change course/want to change uni/stay at uni even tho dont want to because have met some really great people there/i want to stay and make a go of things. i dont know what i want. i wish certain poeple wouldnt make me feel small so much. i wish certain people would stop being so naive and selfish and look beyond the problems of right now and see whats/whose really important. see that because of changed situations, certain things are gunna be a bit different but that things dont have to change if you dont let them. and look beyond themselves to see that other people are involved here and what they ruin for themselves they ruin for everyone else as well. and u know perfectly well what i'm talking about. thats what i hate about girls sometimes - the bitchyness, the cantbebotheredness, the self rightousness... but on the upside i stole a pretty pink glass from work (yeah beucase thats gunna make you happy...)
