I hate packing. That is all.

shit weekend

2005-03-28T20:39:56Z

I feel like shit. I don't know what is wrong with me, but i've been throwing up/dry retching all day, i have a fuzzy head/headache, and all my joints, especially my neck ache. I feel really light-headed also, as I haven't been able to stomach any food.

Oh, and to make my weekend worse, when I travelled down to my Nan's near Bournemouth from Norwich, on what would usually be about a 5 hour journey, it took me near to 8 hours! All because of stupid bank holiday engineering works, and my train breaking down.

To add to this, the man at Woking station this evening told me I had the wromg kind of train ticket, but he'd let me off this time, as it was the stupid man at Noriwch train station who told me what kind of ticket to get. I hope I don't have to buy another one.

Lastly, when I travel back to Norwich on Saturday, whichever route I take back i'm going to have to get a replacement bus service between some stations.

ARRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Rant over: off to watch E.R. and snuggle with my duvet.

It's Sunny!

2005-03-18T15:00:55Z

*woot* easter holidays, and it's sunny! I have summery music blasting out of my stereo, the windows wide open, and i'm dancing around my room with a cool refreshing beer in my hand. Perfect.

Well, all would be perfect if it weren't for that damn game Warning! This will take over your life. I'm stuck on level 16, still. Grrr.

Chains tonight, with fun UV hairness. Am looking forward to dancing like a spazz :)

*bang*splat*squelch*

My head exoploded. Oops, I need that, it seems to come in useful.

Grrrr...

2005-02-17T02:01:59Z

.. I did work, I had a bath and read some of a book, and I had a nice warm malted milk and was in bed by 1am. Typical I suppose then that I cannot sleep, my brain is still quite active, which wouldn't bother me much usually but I have a 9am. Once again, grrrrr.

That is all.

Mummy! Mummy!...

2004-12-27T18:30:30Z

..Can I have this. Please. Pretty please. I'll be a good little girl.

Nooooo...

2004-12-24T14:48:15Z

...it's raining! That means, once again, a Christmas with no snow. And I'd got my hopes up for once, stupid weathermen. Even if there is snow, it won't settle as the ground will be too wet. Slush fights anyone? Didn't think so. Bah Humbug.

Yes I am stalling. I think I deserve a break from writing my lab report after I spent 5 hours solid in the library today doing it - I didn't even get lunch! Anyways following suit like the sheep I am...

1. What did you do in 2004 that you'd never done before?
Ermm, I can't think of anything that isn't soppy or perverted! Oh wait, I paid some bills for the first time, they're bloody expensive.

I don't care if it's not a country, or something, but Scotland.

6. What would you like to have in 2005 that you lacked in 2004?

10. Did you suffer illness or injury?
My knee is still a bitch, and i had tonsillits at the beginning of the year.

The mass amount of gig tickets, and the few cds I have purchased.

12. Whose behavior merited celebration?
My parents for putting up with me, and for helping me move in.

13. Whose behavior made you appalled and depressed?
Christine, she used to be, I dunno, not a raging alcoholic pothead who fucked up big time.

14. Where did most of your money go?
Gig tickets, food and cds. probably in that order.

15. What did you get really, really, really excited about?
Coming home after being away at Easter, and during the summer. I missed Ian and my friends.

16. What song will always remind you of 2004?
When I'm With You - Brodie.

17. Compared to this time last year, are you:

a) happier or sadder? the same, well happier - i'm happy now but not because I'm drunk off my tits.
b) thinner or fatter? Fatter, or the same
c) richer or poorer? poorer, much poorer.

18. What do you wish you'd done more of?
Work and thats about it.

Ermm, do parts of 'Ecology' count? Wait, the cookbooks in my kitchen.

26. What was your greatest musical discovery?
Too many to list!

27. What did you want and get?

28. What did you want and not get?
Well, I might still be going, but for now a place on the Kenya field trip :(

29. What was your favorite film of this year:
I very much enjoyed having a Mighty Ducks marathon.

30. What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you?
Got drunk the day before, on the day and the day after. I was 19.

31.What one thing would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying?
Not having a fucked up knee which means I can't do a lot of things, especially skanking.

Well, sorry if that was sickly sweet. Actually I'm not sorry :P

Sleep deprived...again!

2004-11-01T15:05:49Z

I'm free I'm free...OK so not quite, at least I'm free of stupid flowers, but I still have an essay on heathland managemnet to do *wooT* sounds like fun. Hopefully should be at Deviant/Grapes of Rock tomorrow avec Conker of Doom *Mwhahahaha* Be prepared to be obliterated!

For now i must sleep - only got four hours last night due to flower project, am so glad that's finished.

Night night.

i hate flowers. they suck.

2004-10-29T12:27:38Z

Right so I'm meant to be collecting flowers to press especially as i need 8 more flowers which need to be pressed stuck into my folder and labelled for Monday. *Argghhhh!* I could have sworn I had more flowers than I do, I guess I forgot I had to chuck a fair few as they didn't press properly.

Anyways in other news *Million Dead* tonight *woot* I'm going in my labcoat and childs doctor play set purchased for the small fee of a pound at you guessed it Poundland. Tomorrow the pjyamas, fluffy slipper etc etc are being worn so I look 6 for Wraith. hehe. My work is gonna put a bit of a downer on the weekend as I ahve to do that as well as all the fun hijinks that have been organised.

Finito!

2004-10-28T11:41:54Z

I'm really really relieved, and incredibly tired and my stomach feels rank. *woot* ireland coursework is done - 19 pages *wahey* Feeling slighlty less stressed out, although I have to spend the next couple of days sticking flowers onto paper, and then on monday/tuesday i have to write a field report. Then on wednesday, thursday and friday I am planning on sleeping...continously :)

2004-10-26T15:55:15Z

well, I've finished doing work today as I have stonker of a headache. I'm definately going out tonight as I won't do any work if I stay at home. I discovered that it can be between 3,000 and 3,500. This is good, I'm thinking the lower word limit will be used :) I didn't get that much writing done, but I did a lot more of my graphs and a little of the writing that went with that, and I did some more of my methos *woot*

I don't have a free day tomorrow and thursday which means I have the whole of tomorrow and thursday morning to write the report *score* 2,500 words in one and a half days, methinks thats possible :)

Ooo, I spoke to my friend Ella for the first time in a year today - she went on a gap year to Australia and is now at Cardiff studying medicine. I like speaking to people I haven't seen in ages , it's nice to catch-up, and the lucky devil is dissecting at the moment. How cool!!

I think I have athritis - my knee is playing up badly, and all my bones are creaky and I ache all over, especially when it's damp. Hmmm...unboss.

OUCH...

2004-10-26T10:36:18Z

Once again I am in a computer lab *whoop-de-do* doing muchos workos. I am understanding some of it more now, and have finished my graphs *woot*, so now I just need to write about them and try to explan why when there are more plants there are more creepy crawlies. *how fun*

Sonic Boom Six was fucking A. Enjoyed all the bands, couldn't really dance though as my knee is being a complete bitch at the moment. I still have a mahoosive headache, which I have had since yesterday and I have a feeling will not be gone till a week tomorrow *oh joy* Hopefully going to see The Peacocks at the FezBoz tonight if I manage to do enough work today. I very much want to go - I've seen them before and they are fun - they have a double bass :) Seeing Stretch Arm Strong on wednesday, should be awesome, and most likley packed out. Suzanne are you going to come to this?

Still need to buy some finishing touched for my halloween outfit i.e. fluffy slippers, cansy watches & necklaces, and some lollipops. I may re-dye my hair with the last of my hair dye before then also as it is fading rapidly.

Anyways I should stop writing...I still have 3,000 words to write *eek*

Look...

2004-10-22T16:46:35Z

i really should be doing work right now but i just made the long trip into deepest darkest bowthorpe to pick up my blank cds i got off amazon, which means mass copying of cds is currently taking place :)

:P to you all.

.....

2004-10-12T08:39:56Z

it's too early in the morning, i should still be in bed. stupid 9am. grrrr...

bowling for soup was suprisingly fun. the support bands were shit and i thought that maybe the whole night would be crap, but i very much enjoyed getting a bit tipsy with ian and jambo, dancing stupidly and all pretending to do lewd acts on each other. a good night indeed. oh and bowling for soup were fun as ever.

pitchshifter tonight *yay* should be good fun. debating whether or not my knee is going to be up for a bit of moshing. and then i have 2 days off uni *woot* although i do have to do work *ick*

oh and more exciting news...i have an interview for christmas vacanies at Ann Summers on Thursday :)

and my dad is taking/coming with me/probably paying for us to go see Green Day early next year *yayness* my dad rocks.

anyways plan for today;

1.Computer labs/lectures now
2.Shower- i smell bad
3.Town to hand in some application forms
4.Get dinner made for me
5.Pitchshifter!

Pitchshifter was cool, enjoyed myself but was completely knackered by the time i got home. The Junction (where it was) is a really good venue and i was very impressed with the air con of all things!
Looking forward to seeing them again on Tuesday, although i should probably think about the other two gigs i'm going to before then ; Mr Scruff, and Bowling For Soup :)

My lecture today was outlining what we have to do for our field reports. all i can say is (in my most sarcastic voice) *whoop-de-do* it seems pretty hard, the amount of reading and research i seem to be required to do this year is much more than i expected, i'm not liking it.

I'm not doing very well on my flower collection either, i can't identify half the fuckers. Grrr... i ahve to collect 20 different species, and so far i have about 10 and i haven't managed to identify all of those. plus week 6 is steadily approaching *yayness*

another crappy thing; i have to write to my phone company and give them 1 months notice to cancel my contract. hassle or what. well at least i'll know long i have to look for a new phone. i really need a better contract the one i have now is shit, and expensive for how much free stuff i get.

on a happier note, a flower i' probably not using pressed really well and i think i might mount it and frame it, put it on my wall, or it might make a good christmas pressie :) I can't believe i'm thinking about crimbo already, this year, as ever has gone quicker than the last. its already october and its week 4 of term next week, shit

Warning! Claire's head may self-destruct at any moment...

2004-10-03T11:11:09Z

friday = very bad day realised how far behind our group is on our Ireland project. can't seem to do any stats on our data which basically means we're fucked. *oh joy* also found out that one of the courses i thought was coursework only isn't, it has an exam worth 50%. *fuck* damn misleading booklet. GRRRRRRRR... oh and to top it all of my mofo of a bed broke i kid you not. that's four out of the five beds in my house that have broken now. and our washing machine is broken. and suprise suprise the Hindle's haven't come round to fix it yet. i can't wait to move out of my house next year and get away from these dipshits

thankfully i got cheered up my Ian. went round his friday as i had no bed and we ended up staying in bed nearly all day saturday watching south park and movies. we only got up at about 10pm to go to Safeway to get some dinner! bless him he's curled up asleep now coz he spent til 6 this morning editing Dutch Boy DVD stuff :)

anyway apparently my bed is half fixed and its being fully fixed today. i don't see how they are fixing it considering the way it broke didn't look like it was fixable to me. oh well if it breaks on me again i will get my dad or feleicity's dad on them. once again...GRRRRRRRRRR...

icky work

2004-10-01T13:42:06Z

rah! once again i am in computer labs doing crappy coursework. oh the joy. if no one sees me for a couple of days it's probably because i'm in a coma in ENV Lab D, just to let you all know.

singing along badly to oldies :)

2004-09-27T09:10:19Z

man i feel like shit. fucking cold/cough. i couldn't sleep last night because i was coughing so much, and i couldn't breathe coz my head is so clogged up. i'm supposed to be doing my ecological survey today, but i really don't feel up to it, especially as i have a field trip this afternoon and it will probably be cold and wet. i am going to do some work inside tho whilst i listen to pretty music. i'm thinkin that doing my reading and doing some more work on field trip report is in order.

had a relaxing weekend doing not much, mainly stayed in bed and felt sorry for myself and got Ian to look after me :)Suzanne- hope the party went well, wasn't feeling well enough for the whole socialising malarkey.

am looking forward to this evening as one of my friends from Vides is in Norwich for a couple of days so we're going out for drinkies tonight most likely, so if anyone is going down the fugitive i may be there, it's been a while.

Littlest Man Band, Surburban Legends etc on Tuesday, am quite excited should be muchos funos and am lookin forward to a bit of dancing/skanking.

owww my tummy hurts. i ate too much. and my room is a tip, and i should be tidying it up but to perfectly honest i can't be arsed. didn't go to my one lecture today (no, i'm not being lazy already) as i was feeling like shit and coughing so much i didn't want to be sat in the lecture theatre completely embarassed and distracting anyone. stayed in bed all day with ian instead, am starting to feel better, tho i still can't breathe and am tired most of the time :(

Jimmy Eat World was fan-daby-dozy :) Had a a load of fun with Ian and his mate Alex who seemed like a top bloke. the support band were crap, although they did have one song which sounded hawaiian! the front dude looked like he was having seisures and kept saluting. Anyways JEW were great, i really enjoyed their set, which was a good mix of old and new stuff. tho i was dissapointed that they didn't play The Authority Song, but still awesome gig. especially as the venue was small, prob capacity of 500, inbetween the arts centre and waterfront size :) got myself a cool t-shirt with a robot on it, mind u it is 2 years old - they seemed to be selling all the old merch off.

realised i already have 5 fat pieces of coursework to do this semester *eek*, i guess i should have expected this as it seems a few of my modules are 100% coursework ones. great. this does have the benefit of less exams tho :)

anyhoo, i'm going to tidy in a bit, when i tear myself away from the computer...
