It's 4:36 a.m. I stay up really late when I have nothing to do. It's hard to sleep sometimes, as well. What time is it over there?

Pretty much. I still like drawing, but I'm not going to pursue it as a career any time soon.

Very delayed response, but.. I think it means that I am also an unmotivated artist XD.

I was just talking to my friend who came back from a year in Europe (England mainly) yesterday. He said it's cold like he's never known cold. Considering I've only been in snow once in my life, that's not hard. I'd have to climb a mountain just to get some.

I like when Santa suits get modified to shorts, vests and jandals. Sort of like this guy:



Hah, take that page! Fill with pictures!

But everything 'Christmassy' is imported from the Northern Hemisphere. So we get fake snow on windows, roast meals, Santa outfits, etc., which doesn't look right to me. I've always wanted a cold Christmas, as it would just make sense, what with stockings over the fireplace and stuff.

This is what I associate with Christmas:

My city is rolling at -15oc today, not counting windchill. Snow everywhere. Northern France is the problem and is warmer, should hopefully be normal by Monday. I'm praying to the transport gods. Bigger problem is whether my Megabus will make it up the motorways, they're notoriously retarded when it comes to a bit of snow. Really want to come home!

And I liked your <3. Nice touch. That's the first time I've written one too.

Yeah I eventually decided to make that leap over. I've been coming to the main site for a while, just never the forums, I do that a lot actually with sites. I like the forums though. Hope to see you around.

I love God and Obama too, and I'm pretty sure God loves me and Obama, and it could be a possibility that Obama loves me and God too!

What a trifecta of love, <333333333

Just want oyu to know, cant wait til the new demo come's out =)

Well done! Yes, I failed. Same deal as last year, just too much to do, but I got about 20,000ish words done before the drinking really took off. At least I should be able to finish it by next Novemeber, haha.

you a jerk.

Thats cause yous a crazy *****. jk

Also, re. SAAS travel expenses - you can do it online and it's the single biggest scam opportunity on that website. I barely have to travel when I'm in Aberdeen, definitely costs me no more than £50 a year - yet I always get upwards of £400 from SAAS. Don't be scared to lie through your teeth to them. You NEED to get the subway from Central Station to Buchanan Street .

I'm HeatherIAm, though I haven't uploaded my word count yet (around 9000, must get skates on!) and my profile is ancient too. You'll be my first friend!

It's not James Watt College is it ? I went there. YEAH, DEBT! JAMES WATTERGATE! WOO! HNC Social Sciences, 2006-07. Good times indeed.

Anyway, the older universities - Aberdeen and upwards - seriously look down on HNC/Ds. They'll not let you in above first year even if you have an HND. They want people to stay in school, do their Highers, straight and narrow - it's retarded, but that's the way it is. Places like UWS and Dundee will let you into second or third year with your college qualification, but the snobby ones won't. Go figure. Bitch with that is if that SAAS are paying attention they'll make you pay your own tuition fees if you have an HND and end up going into university in first year.

I'm glad you'e enjoying it though. All my friends are in their Junior Honours now, and telling me how difficult and awful it will be. I think they're just jealous because my working week is 14 hours long and I get paid through the nose.

Huh. I'm back in Aberdeen, and it turns out that I did miss Scotland. The banter, mostly. After a whole day (like 16 hours) spent travelling I found myself on the Edinburgh-Aberdeen late train and just felt at home. Two teenage girls were laughing, Fife accents, and there was a ridiculously drunk gay man who kept saying funny things of the variety that you just don't get anywhere else in Europe. It was the first part of my journey where I fell asleep without my backpack wrapped around my arm; I felt safe. Maybe that's what home is.

I heard that Griffin's appearance was a hoot. I look forward to watching it, because I can now. No iplayer in France, boo.

Also, how are you, ya big first year?
