Frustration.

This appears to be my first 'un-assessed' blog - go me for actually doing it now that I don't have to!

So uni is over now...Or nearly over, just another few thousand words to write - hence this blog post, obviously another procrastination tool, thanks to Philip Young I now have Twitter to distract me and this!

I just booked flights to London at the end of the month, being lazy because I couldn't do a coach trip again - regardless of price! And I couldn't find cheap trains, so if anyone has tips on that they would be appreciated!

I'm going to stay with my friend Jess, who has already had a mention in this blog somewhere. I'm quite excited, I like flying and this is the first time I'll be doing it all on my own, woop! Plus I feel it will be deserved, once my work is out of the way.

Fair to say that trying to get work done to a high standard is extreeeemely difficult when all you can think about are, well, not PR related to say the least. Then when you get on a roll you're iTunes decides to pick out a few songs that make you think about 'that thing' again. Grr.

Urgh, I hate it when things happen, that you know are coming, or you expect a little, but you don't want it to happen, then it does. If you get me? I don't so it's okay.

Life sucks arse at times, but I imagine this is where you're supposed to 'power through' or 'pick yourself up'. Luckily for me I have about 4000-5000 words to write so I'll just get on with that!

Every Time I Die - Leeds '09




So last night I went to see Every Time I Die in Leeds, supporting Gallows.
Fair to say it was bloody brilliant, even if Idid miss some of the first song, which is one of my favourites! But hey, all the same it was awesome!
Followed by meeting the bassist Josh (top photo), who was lovely and we talked to for ages whilst Gallows were on. Then whilst talking to him the singer Keith (middle photo) came over for a bit, fair to say I think I love him, I did a little before the show, but now I think I definately do!!
Then after watching the end of Gallows, went to the bar and saw guitarist Andy (last photo) he was also a lovely man, after chatting for a while, photo opps etc we directed him to the nearest take-aways, jumped in a taxi and went home to party!
Fair to say I had a lovely two days in Leeds, and things are starting to look up a bit, got a new flat sorted, making some good progress on my work and feeling like hell, but happy!
This post will be my last assessed post and whilst i've enjoyed my time in the 'blogsphere' I think I will continue to post my ramblings after I have been marked!
Catch y'all laters!
