Excitement

• 13th December 2001 at 10:27

I got up at 4.30 today so that I could go to a tutorial. Now that's dedication.

Or extremely stupid. I'm too tired to decide right now.

So, why the early rise?

Yesterday, I woke at 9, went to 9.15 lecture, went to 10.15 lecture, got on a bus at 11.30, got on a train at 12.15, got home at about 3, and I went to the Welldon House dinner.

The dinner was not unusual; the same tasteless turkey, disgusting wine and room full of people chanting my name. It's nice to be liked by so many people... The speeches were their usual blend of tactless insults and regurgitated jokes, and the funniest part of the "Entertainment" (note that is a quote) was when some braindead morons ate a spoonful of the hottest (spiciest) substance known to man. Don't ask me what it was, I can't really say that I was paying attention; I was more interested in pushing my cuticles down.

After the festivities, we went back to Mr Wallersteiner's house for drinks. Knowing I needed to get a train, I attempted to say goodbye at about 10.30. Conversations dragged on, and I ended up getting home at 11.10. I made it to the station at approximately 11.17, only to find that the 11.20 had been delayed by approximately half an hour, which would have made me 10 minutes late for the 12.45 to Bath. Thanks go to Anton for getting me to the station in time, just a shame I decided I didnt want to sleep on Paddington station, so went back home, had 3 hours sleep, got up at the ungodly hour of 4.15, got to the station at 4.50, got the 5.09 train to Charing Cross, then the underground to Paddington.

You have no idea how busy the underground isn't at 6am.

It's actually kinda fun. I wanna do it again.

Or at least I would, if it wasnt for the fact that today I had no delays, and missed my Bath train by 2 minutes. And of course, the next one was 58 minutes later. *Sigh*

Never mind. I made it back to Bath in time for my 9.15 lecture, and then I decided I'd come and moan on here for a bit.

Hmm, and I'm probably going home this weekend - school website requires two more photos. And I require the pub. I'll see how I feel after my architecture lab, then I might buy a ticket... third time I'll have been into the travel shop in a week...

Well, must go finish (and start *cough*) the software engineering project due in tomorrow. And if I am going home, I have to also do my numbers and structures coursework.

Ooh, the excitement.
