Well it's certainly been a while....


Wait! Before you all go "flippidy do-dah" on me (yeah I made that up!) you have to understand I have been so very busy, and everytime I plan on sitting at my laptop and writing a new blog post, something pops up. Currently I should be writing a Government and Politics essay, but procrastination kicked in, and other than learning lines for Drama, this was the only thing to do. Also nothing has happened that's big enough to write a whole blog on. Several things have happened, but knowing me I'll jinx it if I talk about it so I'll just shut up about that now. Any major points to cover? No not really. My course is in full swing at the moment, so coursework has hit hard and heavy. Drama is back on, full of committee meetings, line learning and a lot of giggling fits.

Overall....a lot of time has gone by, I can't believe first semester has gone already....
Anywho, must find something to write about, or I'll just blubber on for a lifetime, and as many of my close friends know, I can do that. I can talk for England. The only things that seem to shut me up are food, which still struggles at the best of times, but "Just Dance 4" seems to do very well at it. I seem to be getting lots of high scores for showing off my best moves and beating my housemate Katie.....hehehe Katie, you wanted a mention, didn't see this coming did you? I did mention you twice so be happy! I digress, back to the point at hand.

I am very bored!

Over at my boyfriend's house I've been starting to play "Halo 4". Yes you read that right that's not a mis-print.....I have been playing Halo. I'd like to say that I kick the guy's butt at it, that I am amazing and complete some pretty awesome kills. I would love to say that I have led an online team to victory more times than I have failed.....but I'd be lying. I suck at it big time. Yes I do get the occasional lucky kill, and that I can play with some reasonable skill, but I don't stand a chance against anyone that has genuine skill. Much like in a game of bowling or pool, I only get the lucky shots, no skill involved at all.

One thing that I seem to have some skill in is coming out with some ridiculous things. Our house, very aptly named "Dramatics HQ", has created a quote book, containing some of the outlandish things my housemates and I have said since coming back to university. Mine appear to be witty, things such as "I am an internet service provider!" (work that one out for yourselves) while some appear as just down-right silly, much like my personal favourite quote, said in the middle of Frankie and Benny's which was "She just fingered your potato"......elegant as always ladies. Just to clear this up, it's not rude (dirty minded people you!) but there was a potato skin filled with cheese and bacon left on our sharing platter, and I offered to eat it. When I realised it had bacon in I had to turn it down, until my housemate grabbed it and spooned out the contents with her finger. Ta-da! Your perfectly normal explanation.

God I'm so bored.

Only 3 more weeks till I go home. I am no longer the Essex girl you all once knew, oh no. I am now a Kentish person. A Folkestone person to be precise. I live in a B&B about 10 minutes from the sea front, with nothing but a laptop and an iPod for friendship. Sounds like something out of a book doesn't it? I've already made plans to go back to the "homeland" aka Essex, but they don't come into force until the new year of 2013, that is if we can get past this dreaded December 21st that everyone keeps going on about, our supposed day of the end of the world. If this does happen, only if, then everyone I know back in Essex.....it's been nice knowing you.

Anyway, hopefully it won't take 2 months for me to write another blog post. If it does and we all get destroyed on the 21st December, then this could be my last post. If so, thank you all for reading, been lovely sharing my personal life with you all, and see you all soon....

If not....see you in January!


Live Long and Prosper
