Hey Hey all who bother to read about me...all 2 of you!
i know ive not posted on here in a while so ill get the little things outta the way first of all...Im now back at my old job working for Megabowl -same job i took up last year. Officially im the Quasar Marshall, which means i rule over the Quasar Arena, look after the equipment, and supervise the games -for those unaware Quasar is a sort of Laser Quest / Tag style game...only better in my book but i would say that. Im also a Lane Marshall (ie Pin Monkey) half the time but ill be back in Quasar where i belong now coz a staff member is leaving. I enjoy my job despite the fact its low wage & a lotta hours (cant complain really as i need the money)...but with less free time & with Carly working in Costas in Stirling its even harder to see each other...we plan to make sure she'll be working in Aberdeen next summer so she can spend the whole summer with me !

Next up there's my Degree...all seems to be going well...i was studying Hons. Conveyancing, Revenue Law, and Private International Law last semester -i was also resitting an exam for Family Law which i did in 2nd year -this was my 3rd crack at the paper...i still havnt received Any form of letter indicating that i passed my exams, However my Student Profile states clearly that i passed all 4 exams, i just wish i coul know what my results were...Bloody Uni ! ! !

S'cuse me a sec...*Leaves PC for a few minutes to help his Bro pack & watches him leave for Amsterdam for a 3 day trip with all our mates... ... ...Realises then that he is All alone here now*... ..."sniff"
i Guess i could have gone with them all, but someone has to stay here to look after the Rats and the Snake and guard the flat...plus Id have had trouble getting time off work this week and Amsterdam really aint my scene anyhoo....Ah well.

Now where was i?...Ah right...a couple weeks back now i was in Carlys house in Stirling...this was exciting for me (Stirling Exciting? yea, i know how it sounds) coz id never been there and i got to meet her Family and some of her Friends and i got to see some of the sights of Stirling (that sounds odd too dont it) I know Carly was terrified of my visit but i can assure her i left with a good impression -Actually i left crying my lil eyes out on the train as Carly disappeared from view...but i Enjoyed my stay very much! Im not sure what to make of Carlys Mom...ill leave that to Carly, but she was nice & welcomed & fed me so i like her ^_^. We went out to Dinner at Carlys Pops place one night, he is a great guy -i would say that, he gave me Beer- and i know Carly will Yell at me for saying this but he does look i lil like Al Pachino. I also met Carlys friends whose wedding we are going to next month... ...moving swiftly away from the topic of weddings...we went out for dinner & then Bowling after dinner & i got 139 but the sods couldnt pritn it for me...no one at MegaBowl believes me coz i usually Suck at Bowling.

My Overall Impression of Stirling was: Good, but i wouldnt want to live there

At the moment In trying to get back into drawing a bit more before Ayacon 2002 comes around in November, as id love to go down there and be recognised -or even critizised for some of my work- Not many people have really seen my anime works but ill try get some up here soon as i can...im doing a lil pro bon work for someone at the moment, but im not sure where its heading right now and i dont want to get too committed to it coz im doing it for free -All i ask is that i ba Acknowledged for my work ^_^ . Ill have to try get some picks online if i can...

Right...thats all the little things & things gone by out of the way...ill try bring more recent news soon ! ! !

Sigh !

My Angel has gone back home after what has been the BESTEST weekend in a Long while ! I had a truely great time with her, & the weather was great this weekend so we managed to go to the amusement park at the Beach Twice (add that to the fact i got a Gamecube this weekend & you can see why i now have No money)! Also, her new haircut was not nearly as bad as she was making it out to be, she looks Dam cute with Short hair in fact (you Really do Angel! even if you dont believe it !) ! I wish i could say i knew when ill be seeing here again, but i really dont...i know at least that it wont be til the end of May as i have exams til then - The Mass Studying & Stress begins tomorrow ^_^;

In lighter news on the Uni front, the guy who took my class last year sent me a letter saying that everyone now accepts i DID sit the exam (Though there is still no sign of my paper) and i can choose to either accept the mark i got in the essay as my course grade or re-sit the exam...guess which i chose - my essay mark was 16, where 20 is the Highest possible grade, so i have informed him that ill take the essay mark. It should all be sorted soon enough...Exams only 2 weeks off now...Yikes

Later People!
Dont Talk To Strangers !

Phew!
At last i finally got the 3 letters handed in. My advisor says there should be no further problems and Admin will Have to accept that i was actually there at the exam. Now...back to the exams i have in Oooh, about 3 weeks.

Gulp !

2002-04-26T11:38:00.000-07:00

Back for more...So, Havnt had enough yet eh?
Gasp! God am i tired this week...i spent most of it chasing up classmates to get those essential witness' letters i need so very badly...Id managed to get 5 classmates to join my "campaign", but i still only got 3 letters now, so i was going to send them in rather than wait for the other 2 -Everyone else is too busy worrying about the upcoming exams in a few weeks...Im stuck worrying about one ive already done.
Sadly i wasnt able to track down my course advisor today or yesterday. I thought about leaving the letters in his Uni Mailbox, but decided against it given what happened the last time i left something for someone to pick up (for those who dont already know, it went missing & it was an Exam paper sitting on a desk in an exam room) - bad luck tends to strike me in 3s for some reason. I'll just have to find him on Monday & hand them all in then...my classmates say i should launch a complaint with Admin against the guy who taught the course...but im not sure if i need more stress right now, ive got more than enough on my plate ThankyouVeryMuch ^_^;

Hola! me again
Just to update all you folks on how things are going with me (if anyone actually reads this). Anyway, i managed to gat 3 friends to agree to be witnesses for me and to write letters verifying that i DiD sit the exam which went AWOL. it wasnt too hard coz they are all classmates of mine & all good people...but it still felt like begging in a way, im in such a position that without their help i really am Screwed.
Anyway, Hopefully ill have all their letters on Monday...once i have them, i will photocopy them a few times and give the originals to my studies advisor, who will hopefully get it all sorted out from there...*sigh*

If there is a bright side to all this nonsense its completely lost on me

Ciao !

Greetings gentle reader.
OK, Sorry i aint been back here in a while but i been busy as usual...

Whats been keeping me busy? what indeed! well first off theres the general STRESS i have to suffer since the university i go to (i wont say which...but lets just say its a Good one!) managed to lose an exam paper of mine & denys that i submitted a paper...this would not be so bad had i been notified of this earlier in the term, so that i could have gotton the whole appeal sorted earlier, but it took the examiners 10 weeks to mark this particular course & i was therefor not aware of the disappearance of my paper until 4 weeks ago. This left me one week to start the appeal process before the easter Hols which started 3 weeks ago...At present ive been told i need to obtain signatures from a number of my classmates to verify that i did in fact sit the exam...Arrgh ! ! ! this is not the kind of stress i need when i now have upcoming summer term exams to worry about =(...

The last 3 weeks have been pretty good to me however, probably coz i was on Holiday & didnt have to lift a finger! i was back at home with the folks for easter & celebrated my 21st birthday on March 31st. Luckily, turning 21 has had no ill effects or changes on me - im still a little crazy...maybe a bit moreso ! Also my Angel Carly spent 2 of those 3 weeks with us at home, which unfortunately seems to have made those 2 weeks fly by but i would not trade that for anything ! We had a great time together even with the rest of my family under our feet ^_^ ! Alas now Caz is back at college & i am back at Uni until summer break & i cant be sure when we'll see each other again just now...but i hope its soon! ! !

Plus, now im back at Uni for the next while i cant be sure when my next post here will be...probably June, when my exams is done...but i may be back to bitch more about the mystery disappearing paper!

til then ill leave you with this thought:
Where on earth did i leave my shoes ?!?!?!

Adios peeps

If it works then ive finally done something right & i will be Happy...if not...well, who really cares ^_^.
Peace, Love, Health & Happiness to all
