And I've been up for almost an hour, which is pretty good by my standards. Had some toast and páte. Was guid. Gotta try and start getting up earlier, got the awful news last week that I'll have 9am starts on Tues and Wed this semester... It's gonna be a long one.
So what's going on atm? Trying to keep on top of coursework... Still doing lessons with Maw and Chris, they're going alright. Meant to be doing lessons with Jamie from college as well but he didn't even turn up for our last one... looks like I'll be fabricating some stuff. As for actual lessons had a total rager last thurs - was meant to have 2 lessons that night and they both apparently forgot. Not good enough. I kept the night free for them, end up £30 out of pocket and didn't go out all weekend as a result. I didn't mind not going out, felt like a good weekend to stay in and take it easy. But I'm gonna speak to Jackie and Scott and be more harsh about it in future. We arrange lessons for definite and I want at least 24 hours notice or they get charged regardless. It's only fair, I have to be able to rely on income from these lessons or else I'd be as well not doing them.
FA Cup at the weekend there. Arsenal just got through 3-2 away at Brighton, which wasn't the most convincing result but given Norwich went out 1-0 to Conference Luton, Chelsea drew away at Brentford, Villa went out to Millwall (after losing the League Cup semi to League 2 Bradford the other day!), Spurs lost away at Leeds (hahahahahahahaha) and Liverpool managed to lose AT HOME to Oldham I'm just happy we got through! We could do with winning this cup. We need one.
Downloaded a game on my phone (yes, the Sony Ericsson phone I love so much) the other day called 'Fantasy Kingdom Defense' and quickly became obsessed with it. It's well made in fairness and very addictive, especially for me haha. Eventually it got too hard and became time consuming so I had to stop playing it, but then proceeded to install the original Age of Empires again instead haha. Probably will play that later if I get a chance!
Saying that I've a lot to do today. Would like to practice drums (got an assessment on displacement and modulation tomorrow - 16th note displacement at 110bpm, not cool!), and snare pieces, and glock, and need to burn CDs for tonight's lesson, and need to get powerpoint on this laptop - got a presentation for tecahing next Monday. Should be fine, but will need to practice it to get the times right, can see me going over the limit!
Sure I've got other stuff to do as well... I'll be glad when this course is over. I wanna start making money. Still don't know if I'll be doing it here or in London but we'll see. Speaking of which Natasha's got a tour as a backing singer with Rita Ora. Really pleased for her, also pretty jealous but it's fine, my time will come! For now, just gonna try stay on top of things haha. Catch ye. (Y)
