On the one hand, I have a date tomorrow, I'm going to Edinburgh on wednesday to shop in the most awesome vintage emporium, judging from the photos on fb I did the right thing skipping an old friend's birthday and I'm going to be getting drunk with Lampito and Kitty at some point very soon.
On the other, I just slipped and stabbed myself in the ear putting my earrings in and now it's like my earlobe is having a period everywhere.

A 2.2 is not to be sniffed at, especially if you didn't revise for it. And there's no harm in getting a third on one module if your average is still around a 2.2/2.1.

And I've come to the decision, it's the fact that I'm a pretty fucking nice guy.
At the minute I'm having a massive fall out with a friend of mine, because she refuses to listen to logic, and I'm not a twat who'll just tell people what they want to hear, they should have grown out of that by now. And when she inevitably gets hurt again, I'll be the first one there to help her.
My current housemate is an absolute fucking waster, but I gave him 2 weeks to move out, rather than just kicking him out the fucking door, the useless twat.
I'll always help friends out, and never hesitate to forgive anyone when they're genuinely sorry.

Started poorly following a massive techno-flounce. My phone has been borked all weekend, which has been very frustrating as I needed to reply to a vaguely important text, or at least extract the guy's number to call him back. Fortunately he emailed me this morning, although my computer had a paddy loading the email bringing me very close to putting on my frumpiest dress and having a big flounce round the department.
But it's been alright apart from that. My supervisor's not in, which brings the temptation to bugger off early and "work from home." Couple of things I really should do before that though.
I seem to be collecting insect bites. I've noticed that insects seem to go preferentially for women, which makes me wonder whether I'm becoming progressively more feminine. Or maybe my techno-flounce has made me reek of oestrogen.
