Hello World

Tuesday, May 28th, 2002

Well life is still going on - it looks good on
the job front because I went in to the bar today and saw one of the
supervisors who at least remembered me….It looks like I may even have
a shift as early as tomorrow!
I saw some great pictures of me and
Mariatzell today that Thomas had taken when he visited Grenoble…made
me think a lot…sad sad…But it’s ok…
Watched ‘Not another teen
movie’ today with Dave and Rosie, it was a really good waste of an hour
or so…Might watch American Pie 2 tonight or Training Day, can’t
decide.

Grrrrespect

Oh My Time

Monday, May 27th, 2002

flies when you don’t look…

So I got home yesterday and it’s all smelling of roses - namely that
I’m buying my new PC tomorrow (or next week sometime) and it’s going to
be a BaD bOy…namely a Pentium 2.2ghz sweet cheeks…256Mb DDR RAM,
40Gb Hard Drive, DVD & CDRW, NVIDIA GeForce 4 MX Graphics, MS
Windows XP Home, 17″ Monitor. I know the 256 is a little small (as well
as being 4 times more than anything i’ve ever had before) but I am sure
it’s UGable when and if I ever need to.

Other stuff to buy soon:

The Sims - I have to find out why everyone loves it so much
DVD Burner - For obvious reasons

Here’s a link to MY BABY

I’m really missing my baby in France but I reckon it’d be better for everyone to get on with life, yep yep.

Daddy - Rewind!

Thursday, May 16th, 2002

Well well well Joss scored last night in an
alcohol fuelled shocker…I think he woke up with a hangover but a
smile on his little chops (and his little chop). I apologise for that
sentence.

So Grenoble is coming to an end (not the town, my stay here). Amazing
to think how long i’ve been here and yet how short the time seems -
LISTEN TO YOUR GRANDPARENTS KIDS when they tell you time flies.

I think I have another ^%**^% essay to do for Warwick before the 31st
of this month. Biznitch. I think i’ll do one about Le Pen, should write
itself.

Clubsindex.Com is growing daily…I think by this time next year it will be a very popular website…

The plan: Home to Sturton on the 25th May, then to Warwick on the 27th
May, then maybe home again when (if) a job is secured, then back to
Warwick for the summer. Right.

If i’m at Warwick over the summer I hope there’s loads of test matches to watch…Cricket = FUN ladies and gents…

It is now officially b-b-q and party season in Grenoble. Yesterday we
went to 2 parties and then a bar, today we’re going to an all day
barbecue and then to work at Notre Dame, tomorrow we have another date
at Favella (maybe), but maybe a different party, Saturday is a big all
day bbq at a French guy’s house (who’s coming to Warwick next year on
Erasmus), and then it’s Sunday….phew….I can feel my liver picking
up the phone and calling….112….

Preétat des lieux

Monday, May 13th, 2002

So I just had this
meeting with the man responsible for my appartment. He came round to
the place to tell me everything that needed to be cleaned before I
leave.

OH MY GOD.

Now I’m not saying that this guy is an obsessive compulsive or
anything, but SHIT did he write down a lot of stuff for me to do. I was
longing for a Cryfield room when he left, where as soon as you’d taken
your suitcase out, there was no more space to dirty…

Today we’re getting some exam marks back and other stuff, and
Mariatzell’s coming back from Lyon which will be a treat yep yep yep.
Oh yeah and I bought my train ticket home (the London –> home leg)
and DORIS BATBRAIN here sent it to home (in England) instead of France.
Anyway hopefully moms and pops will wise up and send them on. Hopefully.

Pastis is the new drink by the way. And lots of it.

You Want Drama?

Sunday, May 12th, 2002

Yo so this is the deal: I have to clean my
appartment from top to bottom because the guy is coming over tomorrow
morning to look at it before I leave (he makes sure I haven’t broken
anything). SO today I’m trying desparately to fix all the broken stuff,
like the bathroom shelf (thanks Mariatzell!) and the fridge (thanks
shit fridge).
In other news: Clubsindex.com is now starting to make
me some money (rephrase: Clubsindex.com now has advertising, thus it is
possible for it to, at some point in the distant future, make me enough
money to buy a new mouse).

Everyone seems to have finals at the moment. Good luck to everyone,
including #1 in the whole world….Laura! I’m coming home on the 25th
of May btw.

It looks like it’s snowing outside but actually it’s loads of pollen
all fluffing around the atmosphere. Weird. Grenoble’s climate must be
the weirdest ever…examples…last week we had the most snow since 1
year ago, then today it’s baking hot and sunny, but 2 days ago it was
pissing it down with rain. I now have a cold like a bastard. Doh.
