Rough few days...Friday night was the birthday of a friend (18th)...went out during the alloted school homework period...darted back accross town for the 9 oclock name call and then darted back across time. consummed far too much booze (several pints before the ill judged introduction of snakebite and black...) met lots of lovely people. then went home and upchucked repeatedly.
Hungover today for morning lessons...better in time for XVs - winchester college football (a special game of my school - like the wall game - ill write an article on it). organised fifteen aside muddy carnage. sweeet. there are two teams, culled from the cream of five houses each, who spend an hour running after balls on wet mud. top class! I was on the OTH crowd, leading the chants...hehe. The idea is that the two crowds (of about 300 hundred each...within 12 metres of each other) arrive half an hour early and chant at each other...you know...terrace chants: 'you're so sh*t its unbelievable' 'who ate all the pies?' 'we're brown! we're white! we're good! you're [not]!' 'your not singing any more' and, curiously 'boooooouuuuuleeeeeeeey!'. we have trumpets and drums and crowd violence as people run to the other crowd and get nailed...hehe. anyway, this year the crowd was moved far back from the action by ropes so we were in a particularly violent mood. and just shouted random abuse. i came up with many gems, which i wont repeat here. because this is a family sight and i have a graphic imagination in some ways. (OK: 'what's Ed Neale going to do for a face when Quasimodo wants his *RSE BACK!') so i shouted myself hoarse in record time (within 10 minutes of arriving, half an hour before the teams even turned up) and spent the rest of the time bawling my head of. the most mindless fun in ages! yeah! and we won, 33-29 after some tense times. Tom white wins the day, despite being pizza face.
so yeah. glad i told you that. i will write an article on winkies and XVs. cos its boss!

Uncle Heavily Drunk's Curiously non-hungover journal japery
Posted Jan 27, 2002
Another Meet. Another excuse to lay waste to my long suffering liver. You will be pleased, i am sure, that I drunk precisely half what i had last time. This was to please the Italics, Clelba and my parents. And to increase my chances of getting home in the morning. So yeah! You read it here first: UH has self restraint. Yeth.
Once again I met lots of lovely people, accrued many funny signiatures, and no doubt embarrassed myself royally in repeat fasion. What I do know is that when I arrived lots of people greeted me and recounted annecdotes about what I did/said to them. Needless to say, I'd never (consciously) met them in my life...This time I can remember who everyone is, at the very least...
In fact, I have a very bad reputation at these things: violent clothes, drunken revellery and complete irresponsibility. Guilty as charged, my friends. I should point out that I drink to drunkeness in frequently, and it doesn't take much. There. That looks like it could be a justification.
SO I slept on Sgt Mushrooms B&B floor under my jacket and a towel. So what?
Thank you to everyone who humoured me (bemused onlookers in their thousands), supplied me with drinks (Greydesk!), kept me upright (Clelba, Will, Emily?, others...), signed my...ahem...thing (everyone I asked) and so on and so on.

When words arent enough...

...to describe my morbid hatred for German. What an abysmal language. I'm endeavouring to write another thin and grammatically indistinct essay on die Judenbuche even as i type this, and i have lost all the will to live. Why, God? why does this language have to have gutteral inflection, archaic grammar and stupid, limiting vocabulary? Why is my dictionary so rubbish? Why can't German be French? Why dont any universities ive applied to seem to care that I already have an a level and let me drop this damn subject? Gah! note that Germans are all fantastically lovely people. for the most part

And He Makes The Steal

That's right, ladies and gentlemen. UH is offered a place at England's premier seat of learning, Oxford University (Trinity College)! AAB offer. Neat, hey?
Really it's AAAB cos I already got an A last year in French, so I'm feeling a bit cheated. But not that cheated

Why am I writing this?
Posted Nov 6, 2001
On a whim, I'm going to write in my journal. who knows what sordid details will emerge?
firstly, same music rundown
suede: coming up
hefner: fidelity wars
mercury rev: deserters songs
kraftwerk: trans europe express
massive attack: blue lines
suede: dog man star
listen to them
now, without further ado, random wibblings:
um. my life is one long stream of work, punctuated by brief and rare bouts of mild drunkenness. slightly tragic, you might think. quite right, but what do you expect? im not an alcoholic 
should anyone point this out (sea, hem hem, if she even reads this )
but! my birthday is on the 30th of this very month. if you want ot send me a card, email me. if you want to send me a cheque, i will accept graciously, natch. I will be 18, yay! then i will be designated alcohol purchaser...ahem...this is a recurring theme.
over my birthday, i will be in a play, called the birthday party. this is ironic, cos my birthday is usually as cheery as that play...
then, in the holidays, its off to italy, to get down with all the american students in rome who apparently dig the public school accent and then to switzerland for skiing over christamas with a mate. this will be cool also. then, no new years party, cos i never get invited to them...then back to school on the 3rd of januray.
no sordid details this time. there arent really any anyway. oh well. and talk to me Abi! be on ICQ?
