I love these people
Grace just got the dare to ring her sister and say she was pregnant. This game is crazy. I drank half a bottle of wine before I got here and Robyn greeted me by saying she was drunk and invited me to the toilet. What a TREAT.
Now we are playing jenga. Because I’ve watched a lot of gossip girl I just wish I was on the upper easy side.
Robyn made me say she was lovely so I had to drink....
Im sitting next to khristine in my lecture and she’s texting me about being bored and I’m just replying with food that I want to eat.
It’s a very boring lecture.
Our bus just pulled up next to a coach of primary school children who waved their tiny hands. My ovaries exploded.
It's just bizarre how much the internet has...
I watch one programme online nowadays, and that programme is Glee. Right now I’m finding it really difficult to find a link that isn’t filled with shitty adverts and surveys. I’d say I was usually pretty good at finding things but I don’t recognise any of the websites. The ones I’ve learnt to trust for links have completely vanished. I feel lost, like an pensioner...
I've had the busiest two days in the world.
I accidentally wrote two weeks then - got a bit ahead of myself. I can’t even be bothered to write about my endeavours because things like ‘i went to uni and pretended to be in time team’ and ‘I had a lovely lunch’ are about as fascinating as Daniel Radcliffe’s man parts (which is perhaps a little harsh because I still see pictures of him, his horse and the...
If you combine the words jumper and dress you get the world juress, which just sounds exactly like dress so you’re not getting anywhere.
I didn’t achieve my plan of ‘get up dead early and visit the Cathedral’ but managed ‘get up before midday and make a packed lunch and cups of tea for Khristine and I before our lecture’. I surely deserve some commendation for the effort right?
I made a really northern lunch. It has pork pies in it (as well as pitta bread, which I eat all the time because it’s...
I just had a strange moment where Catherine stroked my arm and my arm felt delighted, which i didn’t think was a possible sensation, but my arm is genuinely happy. How strange.
There's a Catherine in my bed. I love Catherine in...
I managed to get a completely different job than...
I was supposed to be volunteering at the cathedral as a tour guide, but managed to get a role researching and writing a new branch of the tour that will take place outside of the cathedral. I don’t get paid but I get access to loads of stuff other people won’t get to see. This should be pretty cool.
I’m not sure how that happened.
I have such a problem with getting out of bed.
I really want to watch more gossip girl but I’m not entirely sure where I put the next disk, not to mention that I need to eat because I haven’t done so yet. I tried so hard to get up early so I could get a full day of work done, but I have a genuine inability to move. Even now I’m sat, wrapped in layers of duvet and blanket.
In a few hours I have an interview to volunteer at...
I’m rewatching Gossip Girl from series one. Everytime that Chuck says, ‘I’m Chuck Bass’ I melt completely. He’s so very attractive, my goodness me.
I love Serena and Blair’s friendship. In a weird way because it’s built on next to no stable foundation, so it’s not really a good friendship at all, but all the same. It makes me feel sad.
I’m...
I am so tired that I don't know what to do with...
Lucy has been singing ‘I can’t live if living is without you’ on a loop for a good minute now. I haven’t reacted yet.
Last night was incredible.
It went on for about a million years considering that we were ready at about 6 yesterday evening. Everyone looked wonderful and we went bowling and ran round the bowling alley in our 80’s gear. Because of the snow everyone was late so we had a lot of champagne from the bowling alley. I got a free beer.
After that we went to an 80’s bar and there was a rotating dance floor and about a...
I’m entertaining Lucy’s housemates by explaining how big rasputin’s penis was. Now everyone is looking at pictures and playing 21 but i dislike this game so im pretending not to hear.
Also Lucy has vodka in a spray bottle and just squirted it all over my face. Mmmmm
I am in wagamamas and just ate my own weight in rice. It was incredible. I can’t finish.
There’s a group of literal children next to us who are out for a meal and I don’t understand why they’re here. They look about 13. What.
I am in York. We are making fake make up videos to inform the world of things.
Perks of being a uni student #1
There’s always someone visiting Mcdonalds around midnight who will pick you up some form of food and deliver it to your bed, making life 63% better.

If I could montage my childhood, it would be me with various animals and adults looking on saying ‘don’t try and train the animals Megan’.
Then it would end with my hamster in the remote control car and my mother going, ‘don’t drive your hamster in the car Megan’.
I am having major me time at the moment. I’ve watched the first series of Spaced, which was fantastic and now I’m waiting for my housemate to bring me a chocolate milkshake from Maccys. When it arrives I shall return to reading about people far more distinguished than I.
I really need to start doing my work, it’s stacking up bigtime. I just can’t be bothered with critical...
Things I would like:
1. Some chocolate pudding with cream on it
2. To go to the pub and drink half a pint whilst discussing something really intelligent
3. To go back in time and re-eat my dinner because it was actually physically and tastily attractive. I fancy it.
4. To dye my hair.
5. To walk out of this room with a witty comment about sex because my housemates are talking about it in detail, but I...
I can't wait until I own a dog.
I’m saving up all my love for him. I also really want a circus poster.
At the moment I’m reading a novel about impossibly intelligent young people and it’s making me feel both educated and lacking, which is an unusual feeling. Also Khristine is cooking me tea and Marsha in Spaced is my favourite person.
Khristine wants a black maid. She’s terrible.
I love life 2k12.

I've been waiting for Glee to load for about a...
I have a chocolate pudding in the fridge and I can hear him calling to me. Oh my god he actually is. Ok one sec I HAVE TO EAT THAT PUDDING.
Ok I have it. That was such an intense craving.
My mum gave me really cute things today, like all the extra bits of coop meal deals and money towards my writing club. She’s adorable. I’m bored. I want glee and not to be doing critical reading.
For some reason I get so much more done when I’m hungover. Today I went to my lecture and then visited my mum’s office to get some lunch. My lecture was amazing - we have an American exchange student in and everytime she spoke I died a bit.
There was also a girl who felt the need to make many a ridiculous remark. Just no. There’s no need to speak that much.
At my mum’s...
When I was at school there was a boy called cookie and I used to pretend to forget his name and call him things like party ring and digestive because his name was stupid.
January 2012
I got McDonald’s chicken nuggets and a chippy. Most unhealthy combo ever
Today I concluded in the shower that I want to go to center parcs. Now. The end.
TEA TIME.
I love having tea. I have Shakespeare In Love on buffer and I’m going to eat and then watch it ready for my lectures tomorrow. I don’t really understand why we’re studying it considering that it’s only very lightly based on Shakespeare.
This evening we went to see War Horse. It was alright but didn’t engage me as well as I had expected. All the same I enjoyed it....
I am having a day of peace, drinking tea in my room with the blind halfway open and sending quietly chatty texts to people who will be quietly chatty back. I enjoy having my friends who suit this mood.
I’m currently reading a book about a prostitute and it’s scaring me slightly how much I can relate to almost everything she has written about in her early life. Then I actually thought about it and remembered that she’s obviously a person, so why would she feel differently?
I’ve started to notice a difference in the media treatment of prostitutes recently. I’m not...
I occasionally wonder what would happen if I actually expressed what I think all the time, instead of doing it only in moderation. I’m all for free-thinking, but free expression of opinions is a bit of a mouthful.
Putting it into perspective, the people who are perhaps the most dominant in our society - politicians and so on, are the ones who have turned around and gone ‘THIS IS HOW...
I went to see The Artist this evening.
It was absolutely brilliant. I wasn’t sure whether I would like it or not - I’m a fan of silent movies but wasn’t sure if it would be possible for one to capture my attention in the way that a talkie would. I needn’t have worried, it’s honestly well worth a watch. It’s beautifully shot and I hope it wins an Oscar for the cinematography. The entire film has a...
Good things happening this week:
1) Lana Del Ray’s album is out. I absolutely love her and have been excited about this for a dreadfully long time.
2) Visiting the cinema - The Artist today and then maybe War Horse tomorrow.
3) Writers club.
4) Take the whole cake, night out with all the uni fam. Very excited for this as Ms Dynomite is playing and she pretty much sums up freshers last year for me.
5) Back to lectures...
For some reason I thought I’d go out for a beer with my housemate but accidentally had about a million drinks and I’m actually drunk. Now they’re playing articulate and I’m playing ‘pretend to be sober’.
More weirdly my cousin was at the pub and we played pool but i was really shit and danced instead. Oh goodness. As if 3 beers could do this to me. I think it...
Perspective is possibly my favourite thing at the moment. I’d consider my lack of it to be one of my biggest flaws, but recently it has turned up and now I can think without feeling. Good old life.
Tonight I was meant to go out but fell asleep and woke up shortly after to a bag of treats from leechy babes and cathy q. I was overjoyed. Then we just sat together and all I could think about...
Jen is on the Sims.
It’s funny because she keeps talking to them, ‘what do you want to do with your life? Cooking? WELL lets read about cooking’ shortly followed by ‘beautifully decorated? IF YOU LIKE MUSTARD IT IS’.
I’m going to sit here all day because I feel peaceful watching the Sims live their lives through Jen. She’s sent them to the bookstore. They had a burglar last...
Khristine made me breakfast in bed. Now I fancy her.
I wasn’t hungry until Robyn came and ate a sandwich in my room and now im starving as well as shattered so I’m not entirely sure where to start.
Last night I had a dance off to MJ with a guy who was like ‘yeah so I get pay by YouTube’ to which I responded, ‘yeah do do I’ (true fact kids) and it became a YouTube off in which I may have exaggerated my viewers...
