Bloggin’ it up

Woo, well that’s another university term over. It’s been a pretty mental one with more work than was really fair.

However, I can’t really complain since in about 6 hours I’m leaving to go on a skiing holiday in France. I’m going to Les Gets near the Swiss border and looking at the weather, it’s going to be pretty cold! I haven’t skied in about three years so hopefully I can still remember how to do it.

Pff, it seems I only get to writing on this thing when I’m busy. Well, that can’t be entirely true because I’ve been busy almost non-stop since the last post and I haven’t posted since I’ve been too busy. I’ve got plenty more maths/EMO/C assignments to do but I’m putting most of those off to the last minute like a good boy.

Further to all this, our house is falling apart. At the moment both the toilets are broken (in different ways, mind), the internet is flaky as the sun and the power keeps cutting out. The power problem in fact led to my computer almost breaking. Every time the power goes, it corrupts the CMOS so when the computer is turned on again, I have to set up all the settings in the BIOS again. However, today it just started beeping at me. Not good. Fortunately, after a bit of troubleshooting, I discovered it wasn’t the memory (which was nice) but a manual wipe of the CMOS fixed it without too much pain.

Despite all this, I got round to ordering the Eddie Izzard MMVI boxset so that’s been cheering me up I can’t stop pointing at my head and saying, “In my mind!” People must think I’m crazy.

I have such a ridiculous volume of work this week it’s actually ridiculing me. I’ve got a C assignment due in tomorrow, a Global Warming assignment in for tomorrow, maths assignments for Wednesday, a maths test on Thursday, an EMO (Electromagnetism & Optics) assignment in for Friday, an electronics lab for next Monday (which I will need to do extra work for), a new lab starting next Tuesday and a massive maths assignment for next Friday.

And it’s my Birthday tomorrow so I’m spending most of that in lab.

It’s ‘literally’ mental.
