Summer on Radio 1

[Ezza]

Four more sleeps before The Mighty Boosh Live, five more sleeps before we all go out for my birthday, six more sleeps before I go home and eight more sleeps before I see all my old Spar crew for the night out

That show is amazing! I loved it when i went to see them in Blackpool, have an awesome time!

[Emma]

I'm going to London toniiiight!!! I'd do an Emma outside R1 but it'll be too late to catch Scott

I just love how it's become known as "doing an Emma". It's brilliant!

[Grace]

My chums at work are awesome. Today we played with a mitten.

[Lucinda]

I was in bed by midnight and got up at 9:30. It's the most normal night's sleep I've had in months.

One of my housemates is at home and the other 3 have gone on a field trip to Skegness of all places, so I have a free house today. Hopefully I'll get plenty of essay done.

Went out for a really long walk this morning to take pics of the snow around Temple Newsam. Absolutely beautiful. I have very rosy cheeks now as a result. Got a great pic of swan and a squirrel too, not together unfortunately.

Came home to find a parcel for me, always a good thing - I love parcels. Opened it, and found a DVD of Fonejacker series 2 and a note from Channel 4 saying 'Natalie, Congratulations! Regards, 4DVD'. How bizarre? I'm completely baffled as to how they know who I am, or where I live, but as I adore Fonejacker, I'm chuffed to bits.

Dammit! I should've kept this information to myself and given it the the Boyf as a Christmas pressie.

Oh well. Good day so far.

Might start thinking about popping up some decorations soon.

[DC]

i've found my new fave song

Snow, lots of it. In Flensburg anyway.

But what rocks even more than the snow itself is seeing how amazed our Italian exchange student is. She has never ever (apart from a tiny little bit last weekend) seen snow in real life. And all of a sudden there's lots of it. She just kept saying: "It's so beautiful!"

[Jono]

The group work for university is done. I also watched the film required of me for the week too (an achievement for me). I managed to get hold of a pair of tickets to the Paul O'Grady show for the week before Christmas too

[midnight]

Posters for refreshers week in January have just gone up in the union and among acts playing are Edith Bowman (seen her last year and she was pretty good) and Scott Mills. Really hoping it is not just someone with the same name and is in fact Scott playing at my union.

[Emma]

Your techniques are legendary.

Someone is cooking dinner for me tonight *licks lips in anticipation*

Haha, why thankyou =] And gooo Mr Kiz.

What rocks in my life? You guys. Seriously. I love you all. Thanks for the birthday messages!

[Bumble_85]

I'm going Christmas shopping in York this weekend, seeing my best ever friend the next weekend and then I'ma go home for two weeks \o/

No idea how I'm going to pay for all this after having to pay the electricity bill but hey...

[Lucinda]

Going out tonight, yay.

Never mind that I haven't done the essay or basically anything else, I've managed to go to every lecture this week which is an achievement in itself. Haven't had a proper night out in 9 days so it should be pretty good. 2 days till [spunge], meal out for housemate's birthday on Sunday, 4 days till The Hold Steady, then a Campus 14 (bar crawl) on wednesday, another bar crawl on Friday, Stereophonics saturday, then Black Stone Cherry (country rock band my friend wants to see) on sunday 14th. Busy busy times...

[Ezza]

I went snowboarding today.

[Fraz- J]

I have no AS Exams in January. Soooo.....FREE CHRISTMAS! And I'm going skiing in a week so I'm really excited

[Guest CancerForTheCure]

Soooo many things rock in my life.

1. I had an AMAZING weekend in London with my two best friends - we had a cheese and wine party with an actual cheese board (only 'cause Scott suggested it ), we went to Fabric and then just slept for the WHOLE day. I can't wait to see them again.

2. The week of death has ended.

3. I had my final seminar today and even though I am going to miss my seminar leader A LOT it's still good to have some time off.

4. I had my moot today - I had been working on it for two weeks and it's such a waste of time but I don't have to worry about it anymore AND I won the moot even though there were no cases supporting my side and my junior didn't turn up so it was 2-1. The judges slaughtered us with questions but they said it was the best moot they'd heard this week (they didn't do all the moots this weeks, just a couple, but still). And they said they were very impressed with the content of my argument

5. I'm going home in exactly a week!!!

6. I can finally relax tonight - wich means boyfriend, dvd, wine and food

7. My boyfriend and I are going shopping tomorrow.

8. If I can get some time off uni in January my dad is taking me and my brother snowboarding

yay

[Jono]

Just purchased two train tickets to London for next Wednesday. Going to see the Paul O'Grady show on his last show of the series

[Emma]

Good times Paula, good times. I'm going to miss one of my seminar tutors too - we don't have them after Christmas.

What rocks is that I'm at home and then tonight is the works night out, yeees.

[Bumble_85]

My train ticket home just cost me £7.25 plus £1. Bargainous.

[Sam]

so it was £8.25

?

[Bumble_85]

Yus but the ticket itself was £7.25. Bargainous. Especially when I'm going from Hull to King's Lynn.

[Behelzebub]

Unbelievably I managed to get a 'mention tres bien' - a total mark of 18/20 (everything's marked out of 20 here, god knows why) - in last Monday's horrible lit exam, despite my probably atrocious French and terrible handwriting as I was having to rush to get it finished. I still can't quite believe it, I was standing there staring at the piece of paper with everyone's marks on for about 10 minutes, I still think they must have confused my paper with someone else's, haha. So I guess even if I fail the rest I'll have that one good mark

[Emma]

Very well done Helen. We all know you'll do great!

[Grace]

A very good party with work chums, we're one massive happy family, yay!

[Lucinda]

Congratulations Helen I'm glad there's a silver lining to the problems you've been having in Strasbourg.

I went to a social event earlier for 'course reps', basically, my housemate and I go to 3 meetings a year in our department where we discuss things that could be improved on the course. We didn't really talk to anyone elese at the social event, everyone there was just talking to their friends, and the SU people were very drunk. Got free wine and mince pies though, so definitely worth it, then went to the library and did some slightly tipsy photocopying.

[KingTutsWWH]

Unbelievably I managed to get a 'mention tres bien'

Nice one Helen.

then went to the library and did some slightly tipsy photocopying.

...as for you young lady. Please tell me you haven't been sitting on the photocopier again! hehe.
