RAG Week

This RAG Week and week in general was the best I had since I started second year.
Classes flew, some cancelled (Half the week in fact lol), events in the student centre also seemed fun as well for a change (First time I heard Pat Fitz and actaully thought he was good).
Thursday to Friday was the best as went to the gym for the first time and kept myself going for a hour. From that, I went straight to a friends house for a house party and stay over which was something that really let me loosen up alot! Woke up the next morning feeling the effects of the workout the day before and a headache as well. Even though I had the day off, I still went to college with them for breakfast, since we weren't too far away from it, and I ended up going to there chemistry class for a laugh, although I learned stuff about A-B bonds and oxidation, bringing back third year in secondary all over again!

Isn't valentine's a bit stupid?

Is it just me or does anyone find valentine's day kind of...silly?
Now i don't think this just because i'm single and all, sure if I was with someone I would still find it silly, even though I would end up doing something for it.
But why I think its silly is that people rush trying to prepare to do something that day for there love one, like go out for a meal or something. Also they get presents for each other...
Now, why do we actually need a day like this to actually make us do something like presents, flowers and dinners. Shouldn't we every now and again maybe think of things like that even if its not valentine's day?
Like in a way, just because its valentine's day its like we HAVE to show we love our other. Shouldn't we be able to show it naturally without the need for such a day.
Some people have the right idea on the day as they don't go out for a meal our get presents for there girlfriend/boyfriend, they spend it like any other time they might go out with them and don't try to break there backs making a real special effort.
Well besides all this, I enjoyed the day as I spent it with friends that day, like I would have any other day...

Injury Prone

Every tuesday, when i go to play a game of soccer, I always end up coming home with either a bad burn or a really sore leg. I'm know that i'm not as immune to sores as professional soccer players of course, but I awlays seem to be the one to get the worse cuts. Last week I ended with a burn on my elbow, and two very sore legs with my hamstring in my left pulled. The week before was just as worse with a burn on the same arm on the opposite side and a sore shoulder. Now either I'm really reckless playing or...that i'm very injury prone, i think its the latter.
Guess i'll have to condition myself abit better before I go playing again.

A week's worth of stuff in one day

Tuesday had been the busiest day for the whole week.
Town with friends for first time in awhile, then after a hour of coming home I prepared myself for soccer that night. i was actually suprise to see one friend who never comes actually coming this time.
After a fun but soreful game I came home and relaxed.
As I suddenly dozed off though my phone buzzed with a text from a friend I haven't talked to in ages. Although short I was happy to hear from them.
I was also happy for the phone to make noise as I woke up realizing I had to finish sometime in the next few hours.
So finally after typing and typing for 4 hours straight till 4am, I finally finished a bizzare but funny story I had begun ages ago and get my only reader's review on it lol
The story is called The Seagull and Me (sad name I know...) And is made up of 3 episodes. It is up for anyone to read on myspace
But if your not on it then you can read them here:

Episode 1

Episode 2

Episode 3

Don't read if you are afraid of stupid things and cruelty to birds, only joking

What a pass few months

The months gone by have being the most fun, enjoyable yet also the most annoyinly frustrating ones I think I had ever. After a summer of constant ups and downs...I went on holidays to Spain, sunny Costa del Sol with the family to relax from stress and to begin thinking of the year behind me and ahead of me. Spent a few sleepless nights thinking to much, but the heat didn't help either of course. After returning back home, I decided to take another sort of apporach to life, or so I tried with little yet suprising effects.
Going back to college, I started to wonder if I really like the course I am doing. As time slowly passed I found that I did not have the enthusiasm or feeling that I had in first year. I started to become more, easy going with the course, which I have regretted. I still don't know to this point if I enjoy doing this course as other interests have started coming into my mind, English (which has now become a hobbie), Business and even Mulitmedia. But I don't even know if I enjoy taking them up as well, so for the time being I have decided to stick and try hard at this course as its the best option for me i'm sure. But coming back hasn't been filled with all negatives. The making of new and good friends that have helped me relax and loosen out from the stress of all things, and realizing it, they have being a huge help and have helped me become alot more positive and open-minded person along with a "less fearing" attitude. From the end of the christmas exams, I had began thinking of next year, what it be like and remember saying to a very good friend of my on new years eve in 2006, that I still be the same person no matter what, but I see from now, that i'm halfly...not. So instead of trying to remain the same this year, I have decided to try and change my life, getting a job, becoming fitter, and trying to work out on what I want to do and improve in those areas that I need, all in all, trying to put more into my life.
I know for a fact though that no matter what happens, this year for me could end up being as hard as the last or being my best year ever, nothing else...

Death by Chocolate

Thursday has been the closest I have been in along time to throwing up over a dessert.
After having a medium size pizza to myself in Ginos as I sat there with friends, I then ordered a dessert named 'Death by Chocolate' because of its name.
What came out was a glass filled with lots of chocolate ice-cream, cream, bananas and a flake.
I chalenged my friend to a race as she got one too but she refused...
Minutes later after she finished more of hers then mine, she said she'd race now.
I accepted and threw back everything as fast as I could but failed to beat her.
Although she won, she would admit defeat if I ate a spoon of cream, chocolate ice-cream, bananas all mashed together from what was left of hers.
She was silly to ask as if any of them know me, I wasn't going to hasitate, and ate it to there suprisement, which i was sort of suprised at...
But after eating it, I soon started to regret it as I felt like I was about to throw up.
Now I know, never try to eat a 'Death by Chocolate' as fast as you can, as it does what it says, on the menu.

Back once again...

First week back after such a relaxing Christmas. Back to a slow moving week, the place is too quiet to me, theres no one here and everyone I know are still on hols, damn lucky first years...
Hols were good, although terrible weather ruined most of the plans I had. Still finding it hard to actually get up in the mornings after getting up around 12 or 1 pm almost everyday since the hols lol.
Well time to got start looking for a place to work now, so thats going to put more stress on me (if theres any already)
Not much else to say, only that i'm looking forward to the week off already soon!

Week 11

College went very fast this week. First off i learned on a monday morning that i had to get a present for a person i don't even know of for Christmas day in CIT. So off into town i went to get it during my free time... It did not go well as even though i walked around everywhere before eventually buying something, the buses magically disappeared back to college and i had to wait till 3 to get one back in!
Tuesday had the day off, but had to mind my sister which just involved sleep, eat and sleep.
Wednesday was the day i was waitng for all week. Christmas, and it sucked! First off ended up getting dinner by myself...¬.¬ And pubs were full so couldn't get into any!
Thursday...normal...moving on
Friday we gave gifts to everyone, and i got my gift. Hair gel and a masturbating monkey which i sadly named Mr.Bloggles.
Weekend tried to study for exams and do assignments but got no where so i'll try next week lol

Week 10

Well this week was good enough! The arts festival in the college brought some...interesting and boring.... stuff to the college. Some classes cancelled as well so it was a short enough week, except for friday. Finished at 4pm this time, and couldn't do anything else for the day, a day i usually go in town with a few friends but oh well...
Thursday was the best of it as some strange and funny stuff happened that day which i won't go into detail about lol
Lazy weekend as usual, although tried to go to see Beowulf, Sunday but sadly arrangements had to be made for a late date....as usual, fuck sake...
Instead, went to see them turn on the "Outstanding...¬.¬" lights in town and the "Insane" festival as well
Looking forward to this week especailly Christmas day! Hopefully i can go see Santa and ask him for my what i want off him...hehe lol

Week 9

A really bad week of college this week, first of all i didn't feel so good at all on monday and missed a good bit...

Tuesday i got up late, got into town for 11am to find that the road was blocked off! So couldn't get into college till 1pm lunch time, once in i realise my phone is missing, after constant ringing i find out i left it on the bus! So back into town i go and by the time i got it, i just couldn't be bothered going back to college!

Wednesday was probably the best day as i went to 4 classes, but still didn't feel well. Then Thursday, I come into college to find out that the timetable is changed! Now Fridays are just too long as not finish till 3pm!

But so tired Thursday night i just couldn't get up for Friday so took the day off, and needed to...
Was all for the night so went out for a 21st which was a good laugh!
Well i better start getting my head focus and go to....most.... of my classes next week haha

Week 8

Another busy week it was...Had a few assgnments that i had to try and do... Pulled alot of late nighters trying to do them, usually falling asleep around 2 - 3am.
It was a boring week though over all beisdes that! Had plans to go out on Thursday for a party but due to lots and lots of work i had to leave it off!!
At least I was able to see the start of the new series of Bones on Sky One
Hopefully alot more to tell next week!

Week 7

Finally winter is here, one of my favourite seasons (Not because of christmas though lol)
This week felt very short as we had the monday off and some classes were cancelled as well.
This gave me some time to relax and hang around with friends as well, which was a nice change from constant work and study.
Halloween was pretty boring though. I was suppose to go to a dress-up party (I wasn't dressing up though...) but i kept changing my mind constantly over one or two things that was said to me about the party, and by the time i decied to go, it was too late...
The next few days were alot better though as i got to hang around with friends more due to first year exams all this week, and there classes weren't on either.
Next week hopefully won't be as bad as the week before this, which gave me a real bad headache!

Week 6

Back in college this week, and first thing i do is have a test...*sigh*
Got alot of stuff to catch up on, like programming, my project and plus all the stuff i've missed in the classes last week.
Felt very tired this week, maybe its from not much sleep or maybe some stress...(Hear laughter behind him).....yes i do get stressed lol
Lucky had Friday off this week, so went out Thursday night with a few friends to Gorby's.
Was the only one to get asked my ID at a bar first, (I don't look that young!) and also the only one to get asked how much i drank before getting into Gorbys when i only drank one compared to like 2 or 3 drinks others drank I bet!!
But it was a enjoyable night...
The rest of the week was pretty much boooorrrriiiinnnnnnggggg! Stayed in for the whole Jazz Weekend, but happily playing PES 2008 though lol
Well got to get back to work on college stuff now!

Week 5

Sorry but there is not much that i can say about this week.
Got tonsillitis so had to stay home all week getting up to nothing!
All i could do was watch some tv and that was about it.
Did watch the irish football match alright. Can not believe how Ireland can play good against strong times at times and then play worse against ones who aren't so good. Hopes of ever trying to make Euro 2008 went for me when I saw Ireland play for like the first 30 mins.
Also the F1 Brazilian Grand Prix Sunday which was a great race to watch, although I would have liked to see Luis Hamilton win it, I was still happy that Kimi Raikkonen win it as hes been so close at times but never won it.
Well hope to have more to talk about this week...

Week 4

Abit more interesting then last week lol
First off, i finall handed in a CV into Game in Patrick Street, so hopefully next week i'll be called in for a interview, and get a job.
Really need the money now, because i few things i have planned are going to cost abit. Planning on going to a halloween party soon now maybe next week...
During the weekend i went to see Ratatouille with my family, overall i found it pretty enjoyable!
But before the end of the weekend i started to get a bad throat infection that seems to be getting worse constantly, which is actually starting to annoy me now, since i can't talk or do much at the moment.

Week 3

Finally saw the film i wanted to see last weekend, "War". Overall it was pretty ok, story better then what i expected from it apart from a confusing ending...
Not much up this week, just mainly college and thats about it, planning on looking for a job now this weekend, I have to begin searching soon before christmas starts to come...
well thats about it for this week....

Week 2

Its been a tiring week this week. First of all, i find out though that the flim i wanted to see didn't come in, so i was pissed off at that, but it didn't dampen the week i had ahead.
Monday i went to a anime event in easons in the city, which was good fun, although it felt a little weird.
Tuesday went for a game of soccer, where i got a small but sore cut in my head, from being pushed into a wall( I'll get you back scott.......lol)
Wednesday, had the anime society, which is always a great laugh.
And Thursday the freshers ball, which was great, until the band stopped of course...)
The shows in the student centre were good as well, especially the freakshow, which i almost threw up at, at one point lol. And so everyones clear I couldn't get the needle out because my hands were sweaty, not because i was weak LOL!
So besides all that, i had classes as normal, now its time to go out and find a job for myself tomorrow, so i can go to Dublin in November for a event on up there. So hopefully get one soon!

My first entry

College life this year is certainly different to last year.

While everything felt new and exciting last year, things have now dulled down alot.
The addition of new classes have made it abit more fresher, but everything now feels alot more of a chore since the first week started.
Society day is tomorrow, so to help me through the year, i might go down and take a look at whats to offer, like the anime society or the guild.
The timetable for the year seems to be fair, with thursday and fridays looking the best! so it gives time to relax and enjoy myself like by going to the cinema.
Saturday i hope to see the flim 'War' with Jet Li and Jason Statham a flim i've been looking forward to for some time, so i hope its good!
