Where is home?
My hometown has some fantastic clubs and pubs: all kinds of shit goes down, pretty much anything any day of the week :D

Is that Manchester then?
I don't have a hometown, I am a nomad :(
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:30, Reply)

Yeah, grew up within about a half mile radius my whole life

( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:37, Reply)

It feels like I've lived everywhere
so I don't really have a home. I don't think of Ireland as home- I've only ever lived there for a few weeks at a time.
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:43, Reply)

Oh I forgot you were "Irish"
Where have you lived?
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:45, Reply)

not Irish at all
some of my family is though. I'm born and bred British however.

I've lived in London, Brighton, Surrey, Yorkshire, Up North, Bristol and Oxford. And Cork and Kerry in Ireland

My goodness, that's all over the place
Most exotic is Westwood, L.A., CA. And only fr 10 months or so.
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:54, Reply)

I think California trumps my list :)
But my family thinks of Ireland as home, while I don't. I've got no emotional connection to it, and though I like seeing my family, I really don't like where they live
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:56, Reply)

Where do you think you'll end up?
I might stay in London, but I admit, Scotland appeals because of the weather. Though I think Sis will end up marrying someone from the Hebrides and having lots of ginger children, so she might shotgun Scotland.
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:57, Reply)

I'm definitely
going to end up living in London. Though if I got a chance New York would be fantastic
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:59, Reply)

Are you a three or four year?
Well, i imagine I'll be in London for a while yet, either work or uni, so hit me up when you come down here. Plus all the best bashes are here.
i choose to not count cockfosters as london
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:07, Reply)

I'm a three year course
so I will be in London after June 2011. I'm sure we will overlap :)
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:18, Reply)

No idea where I want to end up
Working out what I'm actually going to do would be a good start
( Tedium Alduce me to interlow myself., Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:21, Reply)

I know what I want to do
whether anyone will want me to do it is a different matter
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:22, Reply)

Oh aye?
What's that then?
( Tedium Alduce me to interlow myself., Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:24, Reply)

I was planning on a law conversion course
but if I get a 2.1 I will be thinking about applying to the foreign office/ civil service
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:30, Reply)

Far more exotic than mine
Godalming, Guildford, Oxford
( Tedium Alduce me to interlow myself., Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:57, Reply)

Okokok, it's been Manchester*, LA, Manchester, London
Not too shabby I guess.

Small specific part of Manchester, both times.
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:58, Reply)

Frodsham, then Manchester.
Oh, I do live the highlife.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:25, Reply)

Oh it's the regular crowd in here tonight :D

( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:26, Reply)

Haha, yeah the uni types that should be working.
I'm watching Xena and doing virology notes.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:27, Reply)

Problem sheet in for tomorrow
Done about half.
Though actually, need part of it explaining properly anyway, so not a bad thing to bring up at a revision session.
Don't let me stay on here till 2 again tonight, got to go hand in lab work tomorrow and talk some of it over with a fellow, so can't be too tired.
( Tedium Alduce me to interlow myself., Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:29, Reply)

Pfft, 2am is an early night, man.
Call yourself a student?
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:31, Reply)

^this
you're not a student until you stay up until six to get an essay done, grab two hours sleep and a shower, then dash to your tute clutching the essay it took you twenty minutes to find a working printer for, only to arrive ten minutes late, sweating and apologising.

Or is that just me?
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:33, Reply)

I would be like that
If I ever bothered/managed to actually finish a problem sheet.

As it is, I think I've only handed in a fully done sheet about twice this year
( Tedium Alduce me to interlow myself., Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:35, Reply)

Aye
And I want to still be able to next year :P

Don't think I've made it to bed before 2 whenever I've been on here in the evenings normally (and doubt I will tonight tbh)
( Tedium Alduce me to interlow myself., Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:34, Reply)

I just finished the Aristocats
and I'm going to watch that video I posted up there again.
Because it fills me with glee for so many reasons.
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:30, Reply)

I. Want. Chocolate.
Why oh why do I never buy anything unhealthy??
I would kill for a millionaire's shortbread right now.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:32, Reply)

I'm eating carrot sticks
YEahhhh
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:34, Reply)

Thorntons coffee creams :(

( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:34, Reply)

Nothing :(
I have cereal, toast, flavoured ice cubes or oranges.
And none of them have chocolate in!!
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:35, Reply)

I have raw chicken
Raw lamb burgers
tomatoes
peppers
chilis

Basically nothing that can be made into snacky food quickly (at least not without destroying what remains of my meal plan for the rest of the week, paella tomorrow omnomnom)
( Tedium Alduce me to interlow myself., Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:38, Reply)

Yeah I have shizz like that,
But all my snackable stuff is listed above.
Actually, I wouldn't mind a stir fry but that's effort.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:41, Reply)

I wish I had flavoured icecubes :(
Right starting from tomorrow. Diet.
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:38, Reply)

Calypso icicles.
Essentially frozen flavoured water. No calories or sugar or chemicals or anything and it tricks you into thinking you've had an icecream.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:42, Reply)

Sounds like the thing for me
I have three weeks before I'm off to Malta, then Rome. I want to lose weight (diet) and tone a bit (gym) so need to keep motivated
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:44, Reply)

Good luck!
I shall probably be emaciated when I get back from download, I always forget to eat when I'm drunk.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:46, Reply)

I ate a whole pack of Crunchie rocks
I'm no goddess
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:36, Reply)

Home is Guildford
Can be OK for drinking (so long as you avoid wetherspoons), but rough enough just to go into town on the friday/saturday nights that I wouldn't go anywhere near the clubs
( Tedium Alduce me to interlow myself., Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:37, Reply)

Oh I love Spoons
Then again, my taste is bad. I'm watching disney films with a pepsi can between my tits, drinking with a straw.
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:44, Reply)

I like spoons in general
Just the Guildford one is an absolute shithole.
Oxford spoons (Four Candles) is nice, and Godalming spoons is a fantastic pub, which I've been in more than all the pubs in the rest of Surrey put together.
( Tedium Alduce me to interlow myself., Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:46, Reply)

There's a Spoons opposite my library
you can imagine how that turns out
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:49, Reply)

Excellent I can imagine
my college owns a little pub right next door to it
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:52, Reply)

Our nearest pub is a 10 minute walk away
The one bad thing about LMH :(
Our bar is fairly good though
( Tedium Alduce me to interlow myself., Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:53, Reply)

Ours isn't as cheap
as say Catz or even Hertford. But it has a good selection and nice bartenders
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:54, Reply)

Drunken library = fun
I owe almost a tenner in library fees. FML, that's like a bottle of nice vodka.
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:56, Reply)

I paid 36.50 in library fees today :(
and that was with the nice librarian knocking ten pounds off
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:58, Reply)

Oh jesus. Mine are 4 week loans, so only 10p a day

( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:59, Reply)

I've lost Darwell-Smith's
Architecture in Rome as well. Which is valued at fucking £270. I HAVE to find it
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:00, Reply)

Oh god good luck
That'd be a nightmare
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:04, Reply)

if I don't find it
it means I can't go to Rome. I've looked everywhere though and simply cannot find it :(
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:06, Reply)

Have you put an advertisement up?
Seen if anyone has picked it up by mistake?
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:07, Reply)

That's a good idea cheers
Argh my mother is kicking up a fuss about me doing Rome alone
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:21, Reply)

You could say you'll take random people you met online
She won't think alone is such a bad idea any more
( Tedium Alduce me to interlow myself., Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:22, Reply)

Oh no, don't let her
I'm sure it'll be incredible.

If you need somewhere to stay, I think the English College in Rome do rooms. It's pretty in the centre and being in a priest's school might make things better :P
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:25, Reply)

Yeah
I know a few people who want to go, but I don't want to be forced into compromise over what to do/see etc, especially as I'd be the only historian. I might meet up with them though. The accommodation in hostels is relatively expensive though
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:28, Reply)

I have all of the textbooks I need in my room
Why do you think I always end up de-lurking just before exams?
( Tedium Alduce me to interlow myself., Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:52, Reply)

I can't work in my room
Plus, I enjoy our library. Though now FitFinder's been taken off it's no longer as fun :(
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:56, Reply)

Fitfinder?
Also is wrong that I was inspired by the link in the last thread to the fast weight-loss diet?
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 21:57, Reply)

I'm eating bits of crunchie, it's safe to say I've not been.
FitFinder is a website where you go to post if you've seen a hottie in the library. Unis asked for it to be taken off as it apparently stopped people working.
FFS facebook was worse.
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:00, Reply)

I've never seen it. But that sounds quite good.

And I just ate a chocolate eclair. I'm not inspired just yet
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 1 Jun 2010, 22:03, Reply)

The vending machine in college hasn't been restocked
This is my excuse for not working.
Been surviving off aero hot chocolate all day.

Oh man I can't believe you've not seen Aristocats!
It's only about 80 mins, like, less than 2 episodes of House long.
You should watch it.

I just saw the bit with "Ev'rybody Wants To Be A Cat", there's a character called Scat-Cat and a really racist Siamese cat that plays piano with chopsticks.
