New wee belter of a tune from the Super Happy Fun... →
Get it in about your ears!
Today was meant to be one of those really productive days that leaves you feeling like you’ve accomplished something. I let myself have a little bit of a lie in since my last few sleeps haven’t been the most refreshing, then got up and got ready to go to the library. For me, getting ready usually involves some form of dancing around my room. Today was no different, until I noticed that...
Rachel is coming to Glasgow this weekend! I figured since I’ve only got 2 weekends left in this flat that she’d better get her ass up here for a party. She hasn’t been to Glasgow since my birthday last April. On that occasion we both got chucked out the Catty before 1:30am and we don’t know why, she had a massive cut on her arm and she doesn’t know how, and the next...
Anonymous asked: yes its a good watch, not overwhelming in terms of plot. but a couple of funny one liners, and made all the more entertaining if you've attended TITP. definitely captures the atmosphere of a festival, made me most reminiscent. can't wait for that season to roll around again! :) xx
Anonymous asked: hi there :) i was just wondering if you've heard of/seen the film 'you instead', it was filmed at t in the park 2010 so thought you'd be interested!
On Friday I met up with my cousin Greg whom I hadn’t seen in over 2 years, since he lives in Canada. He’s on a bit of a travelling holiday visiting as many people back over here as he can, so on his way from Shetland to London he stopped off in Glasgow for the day, and many drinks were had. It was lovely having a proper catch up with him after all this time, and my parents buying us...

Things to look forward to in the next few weeks:
My cousin Greg (He’s done graphics work on some movies you may have heard of) is over from Canada and is stopping by Glasgow on Friday for a visit/piss up. I haven’t seen him in 2 years!
Going to perve on Zach Braff/see All New People.
Some sort of ‘flat cooling’ party before I move back to Prestwick. I should really get that organised…

My Taco Mazama eventually arrived. It turns out there was a typo (their fault) and my order was delivered to the guys in flat 2, and the bastards accepted it without question. The nice delivery man explained this to me when he delivered my fresh order. I got a free tub of ice cream out of the whole thing, but those smug bastards in flat 2 got a whole free meal.
This calls for revenge. Suggestions...

Monty is in the buzz chart top 10. Keep rating! →
Today I went to my marketing communications class to watch some presentations people have prepared for our assignment. Coincidentally, two of these presentations were done on Taco Mazama. Considering I’d only had a small bowl of cereal for breakfast, and this was a three hour class, I was goddamn hungry by the end of it. Running out of the room and along to Taco Mazama mid-presentation was...

Lyndsey reminded me the other day that I once said twin atlantic were worse than chlamydia!! I literally don’t even know why I said that because I cannot stop listening to them, everytime I go to listen to music I scroll straight down to them. It’s been AGES since a band made me do that, I was even a little disappointed Twin Atlantic weren’t supporting Blink-182 in Nottingham, so now...
Last night was a belter. I haven’t seen the Catty that busy in ages, and full of lots of lovely lovely people. Well, apart from Gav, ‘cause he headbutted me. Or I headbutted him? I’m not entirely sure. Can’t tell if the headache is from that or the hangover.
I didn’t get home until about 5am because of the ridiculous wait for a taxi. I would have given up and walked...
I applied for my first internship this week. It’s for a paid summer placement with an advertising agency in Edinburgh, which would be good because as much as I hate the thought of leaving Glasgow (more on that later) at least I know I’d have my brother and cousins and a decent number of friends there already. I’m not getting my hopes up too much because there are probably a lot...

The sad, sad tale of a heartbroken tortoise →
Have you ever wondered how a tortoise with the remarkable ability to make cups of coffee and take a piss in the loo copes with a broken heart? Click that link up there and you’ll find out.
The other day I went out into the hallway to find the rather odd sight of Kristen and her brothers making a music video with Monty the tortoise. They were doing so to enter the Red Bull Bedroom Jam to...

I just finished the last episode of Six Feet Under. Kristen and I started watching it to fill the gap left by the lack of Dexter at the time, and because we’d heard it supposedly had one of the most amazing endings you could imagine. It did not disappoint. It was so beautifully done, we’re now both bawling our eyes out. Well done, writers, very well done.
This weekend was one of those ones that leaves you feeling pretty happy with life and a little more optimistic. There was nothing particularly spectacular about it, just a plethora of good times with good people.
It all started with a trip out to the east end on Friday night for a girls’ night in. I hadn’t gotten a bus out that way in over a year, and was advised to get off...
You know those moments when you pass someone you think you recognise in the street, but you’re not entirely sure it’s them, and after a moment’s deliberation acknowledge them only to be embarrassed when it’s not actually them? Well I took that scenario to a whole new level today.
I was sauntering along University Avenue between classes, when I passed a guy who clocked me...
I just want:
my last 6 months of uni to be over,
to have an idea of what I’d like to do after I graduate,
a part time job so I’ll at least have some money when I graduate,
to have a little more confidence in myself,
a puppy.
Is that too much to ask?
