Suit Up

So, I realise the previous post was more of a random collection of thoughts I typed up in about 10Min's. I will attempt to make up for this.

So recently i have been singing along to songs in my car. I've also been smiling at points. I guess you could say I have been happier lately. Which is always nice. I guess you only realise how much of an impact a sunny day can have on your day to day life. When you look out a window and everything shines, even the slightest thing can make you chuckle. At the start of the school year everything seemed to be going wrong, A2 courses were much harder, I never felt on top of anything and I constantly felt down for no real reason. Albeit some of my negativity in the first part of the year could be put down to parental pressure and it does piss me off that I've been brought up to care way to much about grades. It got to the point where good marks weren't something to cheer about. Instead I felt a sense of relief that I hadn't failed. Now that is a terrible view to have on life.

If i were to label why i feel better now, it would be several things.

Rugby, Cardiff are winning now! Unbeaten in something like 10 games. Its a little to late in the season but its surprising how your outlook can change on work if you approach it having seen your team win.

Its nearly fucking over, Coursework is in, most of the course has been taught. And now theres only 6 exams left, that's less than a days work before I can relax without thinking how it will eat into my revision time!

So aside from a sunnier disposition, although i do still spend most mornings nearly half a sleep, what else is new? Friday night i swapped one nerdy habit for a slightly more energetic one. I'm gonna give you a clue....



thats right, Lazer tag is awesome! Especially once you start doing trick shots. Favourite of the night was behind the back. Also beat a Canadian at a game involving a puck. So score one for the British. Then there was some pubbing which is always fun. I also need to learn how to nurse a pint cause I keep drinking way to quickly, also i should eat before i go out. In other words I may have done my reputation as a lightweight no good by getting louder and louder as time went on.

Incidently lazer tag works as a nice segway to reveal that Neil Patrick Harris (How I met your Mother, Dr Horrible and probs some other stuff)is in the Time's Top 100 most influential people so yey for him.

What else is happening then, since Friday I've slept, played games and pretended to work, what a facinating life I lead.

In other news good luck to those in the IB, try and survive, and please don't stand outside our exams rubbing your exam free faces against the glass. It would just be in poor taste.
