Well lets see, first of all I went to Guernsey for a week to see my beloved one. That was a really good week actually, lots of sun, new pubs, dog walking, kite flying and looking for jobs for the Summer over there. The agencies I spoke to seemed pretty certain I'd have work over there, so that's a good thing. And I got to wear my suit again! X)

 

Immediately after I came back I started working for NFER as a marker of Year 4 (9 year olds) exam papers. That's been throughally rewarding so far. Some of the crap they come out with makes your eyes water, in a good way. I'll post the best bits once I've finished. But I left there yesterday with 140 exam papers I need to mark by Wednesday, they're using the trust system: write down yourself how long it took you to do them and they'll pay you that much. So I did almost no work Wednesday and Thursday (which were paid for anyway) and now I can claim more money than everyone else who only have about 70 to mark! \o/ The flip side of this being I'll be marking all weekend...

 

Going out is fun! ED, ed and I went to the Rising Sun Monday and had a rahter sweet night there, the DJ played every request at most 2 songs later. I got a 10 min Dream Theatre song, ED got Nightwish and ed got Bob Marley! :) I headed down there alone on Thursday too expecting the same night, but forgot it's live bands then. Saw an amazing 3 piece act called Blue Spring, they're playing at the TUC for their battle of the bands thing next Sunday (2pm til 11pm, come dudes!) along with Tears of Glass, Malefice and a bunch of others. But better yet, Necro are at the TUC again this Sat! I'm trying to get ED, ed and Photo-Chris to come down for Friday too, so it should be a sweet couple of nights.

 

In 2 weeks Tuesday is open mic night, I hope to be singing something with Bekki then something with Lucy if everything goes right, but as I've wanted to sing everytime it's come around but not managed to yet, I wouldn't pin any hopes on this one happening. Still it gives me an excuse to sing awfully to myself in my room without everyone else complaining. :)

 

I had also been planning on playing the 2v2 league, but honestly after Sunday, what's the point? If when everyone bothers to show up we don't play anyway so Goku can go and watch TV, I'd rather not waste my other Sunday nights. Hence I can't play this Sunday as I'm going to be eating a pie. And next Sunday I'll be at the Battle of the Bands anyway, so sorry Grome! :x
