Today I went to the doctors to get my left ear syringed, as I've been almost completely deaf since about Wednesday of last week. It was the most depressing visit ever, but not because of my ear.

After the nurse had finished, I reminded her I still hadn't had my CT scan results, which was on the 31st of March. I had this because of my Ongoing Undiagnosed Permanent Dizzyness Thingy (OUPDT).

When we had finished talking about that she pretty much told me that I had an alcohol problem, due to her being able to smell alcohol on my breath, due to me pub quizzing-it last night and then (accidentally) going to the Shed.

It was the most horrible thing ever, but I kind of agree with what she was saying. I do drink too much. I wouldn't say I'm addicted, but she really made me think. I cried a bit after I left. I really need to stop drinking as much.

Ironically, tonight is the usual pub quiz that I go to. ARRRRRRGH!

In other news, I'm applying to do a Masters degree, so should hopefully get the application submitted soon and get an interview arranged.

I've not written on here in forever.

Handed in my thesis last week. Got my oral exam a week on Friday then have to study study study for my four exams in May. Looking forward to graduating.

I have an appointment with a neurologist at the Southern General in four hours. I've been dizzy and suffering migraines for over a year now and it's made my life hell, so hopefully something good will come out of today.

Hi there,

I'm studying for an Astronomy exam and I've had problems with a past-paper question.

The question asks me to calculate the mass of a black hole, only telling me that g= that of earth (9.8ms^-2).

I started with the equations for escape velocity and gravitational field strength and I managed to come up with (GM/9.8)^1/2=2GM/c², since the escape velocity = the speed of light, c.

Eventually I got M = 3.16 x10⁴¹kg. Could someone confirm I've done this question correctly?

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.
wottt!!!
I JUST TRIED TO UPDAT AND THIS CAME UP>?!? I'M OBVIOUSLY OUT OF TH ELIVEJOURNAL LOOP! WAIT A MIN

Normal transmission shall resume soon.

Quick update:

- I'm finding it near impossible to find a job.

- I'm going on holiday for a week up to Loch Rannoch on Friday with Neil and a few others.

- I've moved into a fantabulous new flat in Glasgow City Centre with Katie and Jen.

- I passed most of my exams. I have two, possibly four, resits to do. Hmph.

All in all, everything is pretty good just now. Although I don't seem to be able to get anywhere on the job front without retail experience.

Hello, LiveJournal.
It's been over a month since my last post -- how time the time seems to fly. It was Christmas just five minutes ago.

I've had three exams so far, with another today and my last one tomorrow.

I decided to give up drinking for a while. It lasted two weeks instead of the planned three. The weather on Friday was so nice, I couldn't go to a barbecue and not drink.

I've moved most of my stuff into the flat in Glasgow. The only thing I need now is a job.

Still going out with Neil and having the best time ever.

This Summer is going to be fucking awesome :D

I'm totally not ready for the exam this afternoon. Ugh!

This week has largely been very unproductive and boring. I went to my piano lesson on Wednesday and today I finished another lab report -- just six more to go.

However, in one hour it shall be FRIDAY! Which means I get to see my beautiful boy and have lots of fun and drink myself into oblivion!People are coming to mine for tomorrow night, so hopefully a night out here will make a change.

Next week I'm going home for the first time in three months. Hopefully I'll come back in one piece.

Not much else to report.

I'm obsessed with Idiot Pilot.

This isn't a test post from Photobucket.com, this is a real update.

Today I finished my last few hours of teaching at this particular university ever. Exams ahoy.

It was so sunny and warm today, I smiled a lot walking out of uni.

This was a very short and uninspired update, sorry.

BOUNCEBACKABILITY!

This is a test post from Photobucket.com

Right i'm just in from the cathouse and OH MYYYY GOD I have had such an amazing night!!!!!!!!!!!
To start with I am in Glasgow staying with my truely fucking amazing boyfriend; Neil.

Last night we went to the cathouse after we got on the guest list for stacy solomon- I think that was her name- I just asked, it was Sophie not stacy. It was like GypsyXcore music but really good PLUS this really hot guy who i've known for a while was there. Oh yea, this is a heavily filtered post so no one can tell Neil.

After that gig we went to the cathouse and proceeded to get really drunk. Neil thought it would be a good idea to go to the casino afterwards so I went and spent lots of his money. He is such a fanny sometimes *Sake*

We slept till about 4 this afternoon and we were late for the Deathcab gig. It was fucking amazing, they played everything I wanted them to, Victosioso was supposed to be there but I didn't see her.

The cathouse was busy but enjoyable. Cami was out again, I love Cami. Some random Neil knows fell asleep against me on the bus.

I've realised this before, but Untitled #4 by Sigur Rós has to be the most triumphant sounding song ever. Oh my god, I'm actually filled with so much joy just right now. It's AMAAAAZING!

I've been in a much happier mood this week. I'm doing well in uni now, it appears, since my efforts increased after the new year.

Yesterday afternoon, I went to my aunt's flat and played some very beautiful music on the piano for a good two hours and drank coffee. I went to my lesson after that and astounded my piano teacher yet again. Well, I'm pretty sure I did.

After that, I journeyed to the main library and did my essay on 'Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers' in an astonishing three hours! Just short of the 1500 word target. Almost finished my 750 word one now as well.

As usual, it's been all fun and games here(!)

Tomorrow I shall put on my new shoes with much merryment, exit my flat for the entirety of the weekend and be joyous thereafter.

What the fuck am I on? Oh, that's right, it's FRIDAY TOMORROW!

The weekend was pretty gooood. Got absolutely WRECKED on Friday. Not been that drunk in a while, I don't think. Tried to repeat the same thing on Saturday, but with less success. Anyway, this is what I wrote before doing this introductory paragraph: (I apologise, moodswings galore, here)

I've been feeling pretty down lately. I'm pretty sure I know what the problem is, but there's so much more that contributes. Like, I'm not happy with who I am, I'm not happy with the fact I have a dad that pretty much hates me, I'm not happy being at this uni. Yeah, that's it really. Just that sometimes I let those things get to me, when really they shouldn't.

They shouldn't because I know that I have someone who loves me more than anyone else ever has or ever will. And that I love him back with the same if not a greater amount of love. And that Neil is actually the best thing that has ever happened to me in my whole life.

The deed is done now and all I have to do is wait for a reply.

Marnie turned up at my flat last night, which was nice cause I haven't seen her in ages. She brought with her the good news that Glassjaw and Head Automatica are bringing out new albums this Summer! :D

I think I'm being naughty and going to Rev tomorrow night, just need to reschedule my piano lesson (again). And also because I can't stand waiting five days to see the light of my life. Yas.

I quite like this entry, I feel a lot better now.

I'm in one of those can't-be-bothered-doing-any-work moods, so I thought I'd update.

I'm just getting sick of uni right now. I'm up to my eyeballs in work constantly. I feel as if I'm working a 9-5 job. Infact, I pretty much am on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, except without the pay. Then there's the fact I have a further three hours or so of work to do when I get in at nights. Not fun. And I'm expected to spend at least five hours a week studying for each subject? That comes to about 50 hours a week of uni. Fuck that. I suppose I'm just not the learning type.

Pointless update, really. I'm feeling really 'blah' just now.

My aunt gets her piano back on Monday, so it'll be good to actually be able to practise regularly once again. I've missed it.

My weekdays are so incredibly dull. Utter gash. I want it to be Summer. Or something.


Summary of the weekend (ie the only thing actually ever worth talking about):
Neil, Laura and Richard all journeyed to my flat with me on Friday. I got a tad drunk and I'm pretty sure I assaulted some flyer-giver-outers outside Opium, or pretty much just acted like a complete asshole. This was before rolling about on Nicholson Street.

zdfhugjdf gI feel like i'm not 100% all there sometimes. guhhhhhhhhhhhhf nfigj;f just typing crap now. I don't really know what I'm trying to say.

My old UCAS form is finally in the post. Two weeks after e-mailing my old DoS asking for it. Twat.

Well, I thought an update would be in order, since I've pretty much not written anything this month, and also because I want to avoid doing uni work.

Last night, Neil and I drank a litre of vodka before going out. Oh yes. Much antics were had and the night is pretty much summed up with the key phrases "Get your chebs out!" and "Oh my god, are you on myspace?", basically because I can't actually remember anything else. Oh dear. The same goes for Friday, but we were graced with the presence and panaché of the other two legs of the quadrapod. All in all, it's been an AMAZING weekend!

I'm in SUCH a good mood, but mega tired. Three months to this day -- how time flies!

"Hi there,

I've STILL not received my CDs after, what, 4 months of waiting now?

Can you please tell me what is going on?

Otherwise, I'd like my £20-odd back.

Thanks,

Darryn"

I should be getting them for fucking free at this rate.
I'll do a proper update tomorrow, maybe.

It's almost 5pm, and I've been sitting in my boxers on the PC for about the last two hours listening to a combination of McFly, Melt Banana and Fallout Boy. THIS IS THE LIFE!

I had the best night's sleep I've had in a while. Almost 13 hours!

I just received a text from my 10 year-old neighbour, Tamara, informing me that my (ex?)best friend Kat, who I've not seen since the Coheed gig in May, is at her house. So I think I'll get ready and pop along to see her.

Naturally, I spent New Year's Eve in Glasgow. I'll update on this later.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NEIL!!! ♥ , who is spending his birthday today up Mont Blanc!

EDIT:

I LOVE it! &hearts;

Today, Katie, Marnie and myself went for lunch in Eyemouth. It was absolutely freezeboats!

Photos are here for anyone interested! Sorry, I can't be arsed pissing about with HTML on here.

We got to see someone's 'Homer' today :O I was disturbed... hahaha.

Tomorrow will be pure BEAST!

I'm so hyper and keep listening to Fallout Boy! sfdjgk;fdjfdklg SOO GOOD

"OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGX10000000000000000000000000000000000" - I concur!!!

Drinking eight nights in a row is never a good idea.

After leaving Neil's house last Thursday after staying for an awesome 22 nights (or something like that), we journeyed back to my hometown of Eyemouth. Neil, thank you so much to you and your family :D

It was my brother's year's after-party at the Whale on Thursday night. Drinks-a-plenty were had. Highlights of the night included dancing like fools to Fallout Boy and me and Neil preceeding in kissing Marnie in a three-way snog.

Back at my house afterwards, I drunkenly tried to show-off my piano playing skills, but to no avail. My dad then turned up in a drunken state and began the whole 'gay' topic of conversation. After going on for about half an hour about how he hates who I am and thinks he's going to hell for having a gay son, I couldn't take much more of his ramblings and headed to bed crying my eyes out. Neil seemed to enjoy the conversation and stayed up talking to him for longer, even after my dad stating one night that he wanted to stab Neil in the neck (although he had never met him).

So yes, that's what I have to put up with when I'm home. This place is so depressing, hence the almost non-stop drinking antics.

On Christmas eve, me, Lindsay and Katie started drinking at four. I got absolutely fucked and fell asleep in the toilets of Obló for about half an hour.

Christmas day was kind of boring. I was so hungover and could hardly eat a thing. I got to play the piano for everyone after lunch, which was nice. For Christmas, I got loads of money and lovely new aftershave from Neil!!!

Tonight I'm going to see a pantomime in Berwick. Hopefully I'll feel a bit better after tonight.

I think the fact that I drink so much has something to do with me feeling so down. I'm really going to try and stop in the New Year.

I miss you so much...

oh my god i just realised im actusklyl goig to be asleep before midnight or something rifdiculous like that xxxxxxxxxxxx
