This is illumination, we are illuminates

davidnIt didn't feel half as odd as I expected, walking out of what was most likely my last time of working in the Purdie labs ever, high on the fumes of various cleaning fluids that I had been using. It might be something to do with the way that I have to go back to hand these reports in, and then the exam. But still, now my equipment's cleaned, checked off and I'll be getting £49.52 paid in to my account back from the deposit. And I have successfully got through the entire two years without washing my lab coat once. It's not half as colourful as some other people's, so maybe I can even sell it off to someone, authentic unidentified stains included.
I was most entertained by the CampusMovieFestNight, or whatever they called it. (I'm sorry, I utterly refuse to spell it "Nite" even though it appears in the dictionary, (which if you ask me is an absolute travesty (along with the new entry for "Random")
)

Sorry, got a bit distracted there and also overdosed on brackets. Anyway, it was a good opportunity to wear my suit and look pretentious again. My favourite was a film showing two trailers - one for "The Halls", a horror film about gruesome things happening to people who didn't pay their hall subs, and the other for a really tacky kung-fu film, which featured a DDR reference. :D Close behind that was "Four years in five minutes". There were also the unavoidable identikit pretentious poetic student films, which all seem the same to me. I'm still looking forward to seeing Graeme Barker's photographic lunacy, this time featuring a Mexican Tree Pirate (I saw just a flash of it during the compilation at the end).
A brief trip to the Union followed, where I discovered that I can't do this.
The trouble is that without getting up for breakfast, I feel that I have to have an extra something to eat in the evening - so hooray for Tesco sandwiches. I had one of them after coming home last night, along with a few hundredweight of Country Crisp, which eventually satiated my appetite.
The lab reports are all but finished now. I just need to fill in a couple of blanks. Or just hand it in as it is, I doubt that they'll make much difference seeing as I'm rather dreadful at lab reporting anyway.
Oh, SomethingAwful featured another furry site to victimise today. Actually I was rather offended by the front page article as well - I used to be able to laugh along with them, but they really are getting worse. I e-mailed the owner of the featured site something encouraging as usual, and got the following reply:
I Want that SONOFABTICH TO TAKE THAT OFF!!! hes an idiot i didnt post these to get bad reviews ITS MY FUCKING SITE! for crying out loud! its private NOT FOR some idiot to like look at that and START FUCKING criticsizing me!! GOD! GOD FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!...im getting it off FOR good so he has nothing TO SEE! DAMN that son of a bitch why did he have ot insult me like that! thats none of his business man hes such an irritated Bastard indeed! it makes me feel sick to find out he did that just who does he think he is!!? SERIOUSLY
On the whole, I would SAY he's taking it rather BADLY. And I don't blame him.

Date: 2004-05-11 01:37 pm (UTC)Glad to see you found the artty films as dull and repetitive as I did, more films for shallow types I say! The shadow of the hampster was truely a great film.
Loafing Around was on 4th in Venue 1 and did get a good reception, along with a few requests for what we must have been smoking when we made it.
Gnomes, Inflatable giraffe and palm trees, Schroedinger's cat, nuclear explosions, tesco value white bread, “do you have a clubcard” and, of course, The Mexican pirate of the tree tops and his arch enemy laser squirrel(But she is so small, tiny... no she's not! She be far away!)
How we lost is still a mystery.
