Random Thoughts....

It's nice to be liked. Better to be licked.

And as for the weekend. Some food, some alcohol and Firefly. No places to be, no work to do (well, there's work, but I'm not doing it), no friends being annoying, all is sweet.

And Monday off.

Bliss.

sounds like your living the ballad of serenity

Take my love, take my land, Take me where I cannot stand. I don't care, I'm still free. You can't take the sky from me. Take me out to the black, Tell them I ain't comin' back. Burn the land and boil the sea, You can't take the sky from me. There's no place I can be Since I found Serenity But you can't take the sky from me...
 
change "sky" to "sofa" or "bed" and you're about there :D

ok, better?

Take my love, take my land. Take me where I cannot stand, I don't care, I'm still free You can't take the sofa from me. Take me out to the land of snooze, Tell them I ain't comin' back. Burn the workplace and boil the bank bills You can't take the sofa from me There's no place I can be Since I found Serenity But you can't take the sofa from me...
 
Doing that is illegal in 23 States, and frowned upon by the Catholic Church I understand.
Can I have some brain bleach, please? :lol:
 
How wrong is it to do this:

We have signed an accommodation contract which includes the Christmas and Easter holidays. That is we can leave everything in there, or stay here if we wish over those periods. Now they give us a letter saying that we must vacate for 4 weeks during the holiday period for 'essential maintenance'. As a side note the building is being closed and refurbished in the summer once we leave at the end of the year. They are providing to us, a storage container to put stuff in, which we cannot access over the holidays, or a new room for the 4 weeks in another block (with no extra cost to us, or rather, no extra money changing hands). Only that block costs ?9 per week less and we must vacate our rooms at 10am, and are only allowed in there at 3pm.

Step 2 Move in with same
Step 3 New accomodation - cheaper and with added fringe benefits. ...

Don't bother with dorms, I moved out after my first semester and never looked back.
 
Uni accommodation works differently in the UK; it varies from uni to uni, but at mine in the first yeat you usually live in Halls of Residence, which are on campus. The contracts are year-long anyway and we're already halfway through the year now. They do also differ between catered and self-catered, and whether the let includes the holidays, which for me it does but in other halls it doesn't. The idea being you meet loads of people by living with them. Which is very true. In the second year you cannot live in Halls (except for medical reasons etc) so you must get a house off campus. I've got a house for next year with 3 other people sorted, so thats fine. And they're student lets so they're September to July or something. Commuting to campus is usually done with public transport (bus for me next year). Here there is no free parking, and very few spaces anyway.

Frankly I love halls, although I am really looking forward to next year. I can see that in your first year (3 terms per year btw) it is better to be in halls, but then to move out afterwards.

Works pretty much the same here, I just payed to get out of my contract and it still ended up cheaper to stay at my fraternities house. We had dining service and room and parking and I ended up paying about 80% of what my uni residence fees were. Also I got stuck in the hippie/new age-y dorm as their was no housing left at the decent dorms. Nothing but burnouts and trust fund socialists playing drum circles all the time. Eventually I moved to my apartment, which was sweet 3 of my best friends as roommates, and our building had a rooftop pool which was baller.
 
Crazy weather stat time...1.5 hours north east of my location is a place called Grand Lake O' the Cherokees. 2 days ago the temperature there was an Oklahoma record -31?F (-35?C) this Sunday the forecast high is 72?F (22?C) basically a 103?F (57?C) difference in temperature in less than 1 week. They have also had 50 inches of snow over the last 2 weeks. Blows my mind.
 
It's friday morning. I don't have plans until 7 (going out for Valentine's day.). I think it's time to give TDU2 a good run. Haven't had a chance to really play it yet, I think I'll change that.

Wow nice apartment! :p Unfortunately the UK both doesn't have many apartment blocks compared to the US, and the fact next year I'm living in a middle class town, in which the biggest building is the supermarket. :p The house next year will be awesome - can't wait to having somewhere proper to call home.

Is this back with the original g/f, out with the new one, or sharking for single girls who haven't been taken out to dinner for Valentines?
