Are you all down the pub or something?

It's slower than treacle running down a sloth's leg tonight.

I know; assume everyone's out down the pub or whatever, all I know is I'm epically bored!
( , Sat 20 Jun 2009, 18:55, Reply)

Parents are in; so can't go and steal one of the mega-poppin' icecreams as she will be shouted at for being a fat slag.
None of my friends are available to go out.
I'm bored.
And hungry.

Am eating crisps and listening to Lily Allen and wanting to be entertained at the moment. Terrible timing.

that cost 15p a pack (win) but my last pack tasted like ready salted :(
Had crumpets for tea. Nom.
Parents aren't too bad, looking forward to moving out for at LEAST 40 weeks a year (how long I have accommodation for). I'm still young. But had a fight today, not nice.

presume it was with your parents, not actual fisticuffs with someone.
Good luck with the exams.

It's a shame; we get on really well as a family.
It's just the one module now. I've got this horrible feeling I've fucked up.
I'm on such a downer today! :D

The thing to remember though is they can always be retaken, and failing that if they don't work out as well as you hoped, they can lead on to better things than you'd planned.
If you're doing Latin, French or German, give me a yell!

I've finished my Latin exams! It's just Greek prose comp left! I didn't knwo you were a Classicist of some flavour, though I guessed you had some through the username.
( , Sat 20 Jun 2009, 19:18, Reply)

however I do have A-level Latin: ask me anything about Tacitus' Annals book XV or Virgil's Aeneid book VI.
My school didn't offer Greek or I'd have taken it, I adored Classics.
Don't be scared: I was going to do Latin at uni until I cocked up my Tacitus paper and actually ended up somewhere much better! Where are you hoping to go, to do what, and all those other questions I have no doubt you're sick of by now?
( , Sat 20 Jun 2009, 19:25, Reply)

I did Annales I (The soldiers are revolting; I know, I can smell them from here), Aeneid IV and XII, Cicero's Pro Roscio Amerino, and Juvenal's Satire III.
I love Classics too- my username is from Aristophanes. I'm hoping to go to KCL to do Classics, if I miss my offer I'll go to Edinburgh, if I miss THAT I'm fucked. What did you do?
( , Sat 20 Jun 2009, 19:29, Reply)

Wish my copy was here and not at my parents' house, I'm dying to read it again now. Tacitus is fantastic, I really enjoyed Annals; the bit we did was all about Nero so it was fantastically decadent and over-the-top.
I've not read much Aristophanes; had to read The Birds for uni as I did a wild Classics module but don't remember much about it, to my shame. Initially I was going to do French and Latin at Exeter (or else at St Andrews) but I got something ludicrously bad and ended up with French and Italian at Kent, which I adored :)

was move away from my parents, for reasons I have often detailed on here. They're 300 miles away for a reason, and still don't know flatmate isn't my boyfriend any more. We split in March. I have had an offer to impersonate him if they show up, though...
( , Sat 20 Jun 2009, 19:13, Reply)

Im getting ready to go out and have just had a shower. For the first time in ages I decided to use the side jets. I got hit on the bell-end by a very high force needle jet. Just to give you a clue - FUCKING OW! You could probably engrave glass with the fucker.
I bet I don't remember and do it again next time.

...come to think of it, posh shower sounds like some sort of sexual euphemism...
In for a short while, youngest daughter cooking for me (nom nom nom) and then off with her and g/f to see Transformers II.

Had to get rid of the bath cos I couldn't get in and out easily after an accident. Now got a YOWGE walk-in shower. It's the mutt's nuts and I wish I'd had one put in years ago.

Got a shift from 7am tomorrow, so no drinks or pubs for me tonight. But yeah, pretty dead at the moment.
( , Sat 20 Jun 2009, 19:57, Reply)

However, 7am starts on a Sunday are criminal! Much sympathy to you there.
( , Sat 20 Jun 2009, 20:16, Reply)

However, more shifts means more money! Which I kinda need at the moment. Otherwise I probably wouldn't have taken it. Money means more alcohol and pubs and such

( , Sat 20 Jun 2009, 21:57, Reply)

Have had to suppress it in previous relationships - vanilla is OK but I get bored very quickly - but it is very much relevant to my interests. Can't seem to help flexing plastic rulers at work, which Pot will attest to.

First guy I slept with never lasted longer than...um, not sure I should say, but not very long (yes, I DID go back for more. What does that say aobut me? I shouldn't publicise my sexlife on the open internet) and I've not got out much.
Once I find a guy who knows what he's doing...
( , Sat 20 Jun 2009, 22:00, Reply)

My first was an utter cunt and I kept going back for more too even though he had no idea what to do to a woman beyond kiss sloppily :( it's been uphill from there!
Will be happy to offer advice if you need it!
( , Sat 20 Jun 2009, 22:07, Reply)

But no one will ever see it. It started in 2004 for gawd's sake!
Thanks, I'll message you if I ever need it! I don't have a Mr. at the moment, though I have designs on a couple of guys for casual!sex. But one's pretty much not interested. I might have to jump on him. Again.
( , Sat 20 Jun 2009, 22:22, Reply)

and am only just learning I don't hate being single as much as I thought. Got a rotten crush I can't do anything about at the moment though...
I need to put everything down on paper too, so when I'm an old lady I can look back at it and think "yeah, I had fun!"
( , Sat 20 Jun 2009, 22:28, Reply)

But I have letters. Lots of letters. And messages. And texts, buried in my computer!
Yeah, I'm just waiting for September to start anew, whereever that is. I hope it's London. Because Edinburgh will involve more inadvertent/wellmeant "stalking" and probably destruction of the fragile friendship I have with one guy I like.
Even if London has Pretty V.
/sigh
Where have all the good men gone?
/doesn't know the rest of the words
We ladies gotta stick together.

a livejournal since 2004.
I'd all but forgotten what it's like to have a crush on someone and now I do I can't really stop thinking about him... it's making me more confident - this is no bad thing - and more flirtatious with people - perhaps a bad thing dependent on context. Especially as I know it's reciprocated. I spent ages at uni involved in well-meant stalking (and less well-meant where Stalker Girl was concerned, I still feel sorry for that guy and I did later apologise to him) and wishing the incredibly hot guy in my Italian class would return my affection before deciding he was gay...
I know all the words *ashamed*

in 2 days.
I think that ruined my chances somewhat.
I've not been out in ages, though, though I don't think I'd pick up in clubs. I like to talk, and it's hard to hold a conversation with loud music. I've talked to nice people outside when on fagbreaks, but what's the point in going out if I'm going to sit outside on my own, waiting for someone else who's alone? I don't like having crushes on people. Because with me, they're always oneway. Is there a chance he likes you?
Good luck though :)
( , Sat 20 Jun 2009, 22:42, Reply)

I don't like clubs - I've made far too many ill-advised pulls in there that always end up coming back to haunt you. Student unions are the worst for that! And the fact I can't hear myself think, let alone order anything over the din... bah. Clubs FTL.

( , Sat 20 Jun 2009, 22:46, Reply)

but don't know where else to find the boys :P Here? I'm not pandered to. I hope that's a good thing :D
I've only pulled twice in clubs, one had been brewing for ages, the other turned into a relationship that ended quickly because I was ugly. Trufax.
Oh that's good! I'm getting a bit of support from an old flame, who I gave love and advice to. But It's good that you're having a nice time. That'd be good, actually, thanks. TBH I'll probably not end up in situations where I'd pull, or guys ANYWHERE near me ^_^
EDIT: For Gawd's sake MTFU
( , Sat 20 Jun 2009, 22:50, Reply)

- have met one ex through b3ta, one through him and another chap I've been known to engage in naughty fun with.
As for the one that ended it because you were 'ugly', he wants cunting in the fuck! *flexes ruler of doom*
Flatmate says he's not interested in another relationship with anyone, which cheers me in a strange way, but he's very good with the advice, telling me he'll be more than OK with it if I bring someone home while we live together. Will drop you a gaz and will have to check it's not all f-locked first. I update sporadically lately, though.
No need to MTFU; it's cathartic!

Thanks for chatting to me, you're really interesting! I knew you were great when you liked LC! and Amanda, and did latin ^_^
Off to bed, now. Sleep tight.

Yep, I wish I was where you are now, and I'm only 23 ;) wish uni was in front of me again and not behind me!

What's a clungemonkey like, anyway? I think of it as a kind of sockmonkey made in a pinkish material.
