So the last week or so has been monumental for me-not because I actually did some revision, but cos i had to make the hardest decision of my life so far.
But to start with, good news! Itfitlered through to me that my older brother finally popped the big question to Claire.(Cue awwwwww's from the audience) Really couldnt be happier for them:):)
However, this happening finally decided for me, almost, a point on which I have been mulling over for a long time-no matter how much fun you can have at uni, real life is gonna catch up with you eventually like the metaphorical hare and tortoise. And looking back at what Ive enjoyed and achieved this past year has really brought some sobering facts to light, with all the unpleasantness of a turd in the face.
Uni is not for me. At least, not at this point in time.
There, said it. I cant seem to enjoy what im doing, and as much as the course interests me, I dont want to be stuck doing something I dont enjoy. Once I admitted to this, everyone ive confessed it to has been really supportive(including the parents, though I do feel mum used a tone of voice that conveyed so much disappointment it would cause a legion of insecure teenage girls to drown in their own tears). Now Im stuck with trying to get a job so I can afford to stay here next year, or try to find someone to fill my spot in the house.
But this is real life-it sucks, but its time I finally grew up. And if that means i need to be constantly scared shitless and work hard so be it.
(and yes, before anyone thinks to have a go, I know I am a whiny manchild. Get over it. I needed to get this out of my system.)

fascinating
(This is the second time ive written this-damn network that cuts off every 5 mins if u dont do anything.......)
So, yesterday we went to see the new Star Trek film-in a word, brilliant! I think its a brilliant reboot of the francise, even with the confusing camera control during space battles and the criminal underuse of Simon Pegg as Scotty-I want more of him in the next one!!!!!
There was one thing which confused me though-Uhura and Spock? The pointy-eared, emotionless boring conversationalist? Probably started with Spock looking at her and thinking "She looks hot in that uniform, and it is logical to think that she would look even hotter out of it-so logically speaking, i should get off with her" Star Trek, the dirty secrets.....
Gotta warn you, just read back this last paragraph and made me vomit a little and feel all girly. So spit while reading it or something........
But tha meant that James Tiberius Kirk, the biggest whore in all of sci-fi, didnt get the girl. This confused me until I realised the movie wasnt about him getting a girl made of organic material(would have said human, but didnt seem appropraite seeing how much he's got off with women from alien species. Doing more for different species getting along than the rest of the entire federation) The film is about him getting the one girl he is faithful to-the enterprise. And what better girl could there be? Always, in the words of scotty, gives all shes got and protects him-while also having the lasers and no need to cuddle in bed. Indeed many Trekkies would probably want to marry the enterprise if ths was pointed out.........I wonder how many trekkies are married to fellow trekkies who have changed their name to enterprise? Gotta be one-dad called Kirk and their children Spock, Bones, Scotty and redshirtwhodiesinanobviousplottwist.
Poor woman, and poor children.
If I ever marry a woman, her names gonna be Serenity:P

say WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA?
Right, so little gap between these two posts......i might have accidentally forgot my password. heh....
But anyway-I feel the need to rant once more:P
On weds, utilising the absurdly awesome orange wednesdays, we went to see wolverine. Before i get bogged down, letme say it was pretty awesome:) i mean, whats not to like about someone with metal claws and calls everyone bub?(something i am gonna try using myself from now on, despite howmuch of a fanboy it makes me) People can argue that the plot was shocking, but bleh to them.
But what i cant seem to get over is what they did to Deadpool. The crazy, muderous, "merc with a mouth". They started out well-ryan renolds can carry off the whole mouthy bit, but to turn him into a mute killer with SWORDS IN HIS ARMS?? While it is not a full rape of my love for deapool, it still feels like marvel have stuck their hands down my trousers and had a good rummage. I have heard of the ending after the credits(didnt get to see that, was stuck with the crappy one of logan in japan) and all i can hope is that the planned deadpool movie is so much better.
But, this weekend should be fun-Jakus Hadlius might be gracing us with an appearance in the north-havent seen him since easter, so that would be awesome:))
Plus, if he doesnt, all ill have to do is revise.......
Godspeed mate!
