Hmm. More LiveJournaling eh?

Well I suppose it is only fair, texting and phoning to Australia is expensive after all. (If this doesn't apply to you, then never mind)

I have epic amounts of work at the moment, but may be going to see friends at the weekend.

I guess this is a sort of run-up to a proper entry!

[tunes |the hum of the learning cafe]

I have been going back to old ways and not writing in here for ages and ages and ages.
so here we go.

im sure that this is woefully insufficient for the amount of time i havnt posted but oh well there we go!!!!

so
stuff
thats happened
at uni

errrm

i finally got to watch some real tv the other night lol which was a first for a while it was only really boring late night bbc news.. but still!!!! then i had to watchi it on repeat untill the bitesize thing came on as james fell asleep on me and the tv has no remote. hmf.

went to the BM unnessecarily for archaeology, which was kinda fun, tho jeff and god (thats his nickname, and now ive forgotton his real name, so apologies for the blasphemy lol) and I went around it in double quick time so we didnt really see anythign in ghreat detail but oh well, we got to see a lot of it lol. you cant see the British Museum in 3 hours, it dosnt work. and everything in their cafes is REALLY expensive.
innocent smoothie: usually about £1.75 - £2.00 in the BM - £2.40
thats a 1/4 profit they are making... on top of everyone elses profit!!!! ok so they are a charity (i think, not sure) relying on donations (i think) and gift shop sales etc etc etc and they will have massive conservation costs etc etc etc. HOWEVER bloody hell dudes, chop a few pence off stuff!!!
another scary thing that happend was that 2 schoolboys in blazers etc (looked well posh) held open a pair of doors for us 3 to go through........ which terrified us all slightly! we muttered thanks then scrammed.

PARTY to go to a week on saturday!!! it is S themed, (as it is sarahs party) so I think I might go as a sprite. as thats fun. tho i may need fairy wings and a spritly top. :D

ooh and i was bad and ordered the DVD of adam adamant off amazon yesterday...... squee! hehehe ^_^

hmm need to do more christmas shopping.

i feel a little sad. (and it feels squishy lol but anyway, sillieness aside...) tis probably just being up at half 4 in the morning and wanting to actually be useful tommorow. grr. want sleep. hmf.

i cant see effin till i get home :( this makes me sad due to missing him.
it also makes me annoyed at richard for fucking around with the date of the party.

Krubera Cave (and getting a tad tiddly) [Nov. 11th, 2007|09:54 am]

[mood | sleepy and snotty]

the ukranian speleological association, 2 miles of rope and a telephone line spend 2 weeks living in a cave... http://www7.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/0505/feature4/multimedia.html
and break some records!

new caving region, 7 large new caves found between about 80m and 130m deep, not fully explored as yet:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/6461201.stm

hmm i should stop lurking quite so much on the UK caving forum... or not!

~~~~~

went out with fish and AJ and james and tim which was fun, we all got a little drunk. James hurt tims wrist, but rumours of james beating tim up are totally unfounded. apparantly its cos james normally drinks with ninjas, so he dosnt think hes doing anything. we managed to get them (james and tim) to go in the end after coming back here for sandwiches!
[edit: oh! and we met wayne, which was quite fun azs we hadnt seen him for ages and ages!!!]

then this morning, james woke me up by coming in to write a note for tats as he came to pick her up for church but she wasnt here... so he had walked all the way over here for nothing. so now i am awake on a sunday morning, which is just all wrong.

halloween

i never got into the habit of halloween when little due to no-one to go trick-or-treating with (lizzy wasnt allowed) and when i did have people, i felt too old to do it. and now i cant.... its one of those things one has to practice i think.

all hallows even..... pagan festival... from wikipedia: "Many European cultural traditions, in particular Celtic cultures, hold that Halloween is one of the liminal times of the year when spirits can make contact with the physical world, and when magic is most potent."

post-camp blues :(

but evan-on-friday happiness.
dunno what we are going to do tho.... and for food cos ive got £11 on my card so that wont do thursday 3 meals and friday 4 meals. in fact may not streach to 3 on fri.... ahh well.

evan: feel free to talk about whatever you want and over some sort of medium of text if you want to. or bottle it up untill friday if you want to!!!! hope you are all ok and stuff.... dont whatever it is distract you from your work!!!

CAVING!!!!!
rules ok

i went through a sump and am now highly smug about the whole thing :D
it wassup one in swildons hole, on mendip and if you saw that "ultimate caving" programme on the bbc, the one with kate humble in, well it was the sump she refused to do :D 
lol just had a thought....  go me, im harder than kate humble!!!!
aaahhh smugness :D

and oddly enough, i wanna go do it again... as long as i dont get as cold on the way out!!!! silly people on the 20 not letting us cold people go out first. 

yay for hair brushing!

today one of my lectures was not a lecture at all, but a cunning plan. Tom James took us all out on a walk to talk about his book for ages lol! it was mildly interesting, as he said some differnt things to that graham scobie bloke the other night. and i went to the east end of town which i had been meaning to do for a while, and so will do again and go down more riveryness. woo. and there is a tiny weeny bit of the roman wall left. its like a metre long and ita ALL that is left. silly things.

i dont think anything else has happened.
if it has i forgot.
its not important anyhow.

sam keeps going on at james becasue apparantly it isnt christian for him to have crashed on my floor a while back.... which is odd. sorta begs the question that if i was a bloke would it be alright...?
oddness.

I went up a big hill today and found a very old church/hospital/monastary thing. It was fun. dunno what im doing tonight, but hopefully whatever it is will be fun :D

the hill was st. catherines hill and its a hill fort and HUGE - in tallness and steepness mainly but also general size. it has a lot of steps and trees on the top and an amazing view of winchester where i could see pretty much everything including the university... i could actually see which bits were which, like the library and the main building etc.

hmm i should wash up breakfast...

[tunes |dave matthews: "gravedigger"]

i did my directed task on bibliograohy... now all the remains is the 2000 word essay (thought it was 3000 words, thank goodness it isnt!) on the effects of the black death..... wooness.... lol
last night was fun woo, went to tims house with james. tim wasnt there but other people i know were. played some sort of possibly halo thing on xbox... but thats been mentioned.
james balenced on a chair... hes a bloody acrobat that one, but he has dextrous toes like me! woo.
strawberry alcholness and coke is very nice!

what am i meant to do when i have have nothing to do at uni? if i was at home there is a sorta set i-have-nothing-much-to-do routine... but here there isnt which makes it more boring. tho i might go climb that hill tommorow, as i havnt yet and it would be better to do it when fish and nat arnt here so im not randomly abandoning them. I might tonight actually, cos i dont have to be back for anything in particular, and i might get up there for sunset.... oooh thats tempting! yes..... may do that.

damn i think theres a headache lurking.......

today i went into dgs with my jacket and came home without it.
it is green, thin material, with painted designs on it in black with dots of red and blue. it has a zip up the front and a hood.
.... I really want to find it!

i have no idea where it is, but one contender is the new dgs common room....
other possible places being the tappins shuttle bus between the schools (if u see it as lost property, please get it for me!), that nature reserve place near the didcot end of the embankment and a bridge over a stream near upton...

I think I lost it at some point on the way home, but I really dont know...

I want it back!
