Maltesers

I have fallen in love again. They are the lighter way to enjoy chocolate what can beat that. they come in a lovely pouch that is easily resealable and they dont go stale. There are so many different ways to eat Maltesers: suck them until all the chocolate is melted, bite the chocolate off leaving the crispy bit or quickly chew getting the whole effect together. Think i'll go to the shop and get some more. They are worse than pringles once you pop you really cant stop

The chewing gum saga continues

Well after getting lots of advice about what to do to get rid of the chewing gum. I decided to go with the simplest. I rolled them up and stuck them in the freezer for a few days. Out of sight out of mind. I think i thought that that would be it. Leave them there and elves would come around at night and solve my problem. No way. I checked them the next day no change. I scraped it with a knife no good. So i returned them to the freezer clearly they needed more time. On Saturday i finally gave in and accepted if they were ever to be restored to their former glory i would have to invest in some ice cubes and elbow grease and so the operation began. After 45 mins i could at least see that it was working. However i still cant figure out how the gum got down as far as my knees. The bad news is leaving them in a freezer does not work the good news is ice cubes do and so tomorrow after alot of work i will be wearing them again. If i wasnt a student i would have dumped them and gone shopping.

Chewing Gum

Because i neglected the blog over last semester i am trying to make up for it now, so you get to listen to me go on about absolutely nothing in particular. Though this is beneficial to those of you that have lectures in the Kirwan theatre. Like a good student i went to my English lecture alas but like a not so good student i sat at the back of the lecture. Half way through i decided to move in a seat. Only to find that i was stuck to the seat. Chewing Gum. Yes some inconsiderate immature fool left a lovely lump of minty smelling chewing gum on the seat and my jeans were destroyed. Im sure the lecturer had'nt a clue what was going on as my friend tried to exam my ass to see the damage done by the gum. For such a small piece it really knows how to travel. Of course we were both in stitches. It is still kinda funny now but maybe not so funny when i try and remove it. So beware on the right hand side of the Kirwan theatre on the outside seat lies a not so big lump of gum (the rest is on my jeans)

Doom and Gloom

Im used to being pissed of in Jan. Your supposed to be because Christmas is over, your broke, the presents you got were crap or didnt fit and the long dark evenings. But its February and its still all doom and gloom maybe its the course because i do like teaching I just dont like all the itty bitty things we have to do. i.e powerpoint presentations. Although having my black background might not be helping though i do like the colour. Maybe its time to give in and go back on the anti depressants though for a student they are pretty expensive! Ah well maybe i just need some more fresh air! Or possible to try sticking my head in the washing machine

Motivation

I hate that i cant manage to motivate myself to do any of my projects. I know that when the due date arrives i will be pulling my hair out and giving out that i didnt start sooner. The thing is i am just about keeping my head above water with lesson plans and school. Seriously though gotta get more motivated. I will really, ah maybe tommorrow

Exam results

I'm so fed up waiting for these exam results. It was really nice of Elaine Keane to annonce in her lecture that some students failed what a way to get the nerves going. The excuses are just never ending in this course. It is a joke at this stage. The only thing not funny about this is getting a loan for 5000 euros to be treated like a muppet and a child. Have they forgotten that they are not in a classroom but are in fact dealing with adults? There are so many things i could say right now but i am going to bite my tongue.
Hi all, back in lectures again so love it when the blocks are gone out teaching. Its back to the boring life for me of school, lunch, lectures, dinner and lesson plans. I really better be careful or the excitement of it all is going to kill me. Cant even think of a joke for you all. I suppose the hype around Valentines is a laugh especially for a singleton non romantic like me.
