Back to University
Posted Sep 16, 2000
Well the Holiday is over and I'm due to go back on monday, good. As I'm beginning to climb the walls with boredom. I've bought enough stationary to supply an entire office for a year, organised my mess into alphabetical order, feel finally organised so I can relax in the last week before going back. Then there is a fuel crisis organised by bloody minded people with an axe to grind (This probably is inaccurate but I'm annoyed) so I spend a week worrying am I going to make it to re-enrolement. Still I knew something had to happen so I hope that's my lot (cross fingers, touch wood, search frantically for 4 leaf clover).

Oh, how I long for the freedom to be bored by to much free time again. After you read this you'll probably think I'm one of lifes complainers, but I'm not, honest.
About 4 weeks ago I got offered a job, hurray money! (or for any recruitment officers reading "a invaluable experience in the office environment which will be useful for my future career") but then I have to do the job, tedious is not expansive enough a word, please give me any suggestions for a word to describe being in a job that a computer would find intellectually stunting.
I have only just been allowed to listen to music, the meaning of life and the answer to the eternal question "when humans have it within their power to meet their requirements, why do they instead try and exceed them and annoy everyone?" have all been well covered, now I'm reduced to thinking of all the things I would rather be doing, but with full knowledge I will probably forget them if I had the time.
Oh well! (I mean what else can I say? I'm a poor student, I need the money! stupid fees!)

Holiday, at home
Posted Jun 7, 2000
Recently I have reached the yearly gap in my course, meaning it is time to find a job, and in the meantime have a break. Which is all well and good if you actually have enough things to do and cash to do them. And before people mention fine days walking in the park, I think it only fair to point out I'm in the North-East of England and as per usual it has been raining for about 2 weeks on and off.
Now I want to point out I'm not moaning, well not much, it's just that all term I could think of a million things to do and the second I have the time to do them I forget what they are.
It's a strange phenominon, the first week you don't seem to have enough hours in the day, by the third week you find yourself watching the repeats of programs you watched earlier in the week.
