Quite a busy month here. Went to stay at nicki's again and again it was amazing. What made it great aswell was that em was there as well so all 3 of us hanged out together. We watched Batman Begins and I also got to meet Nic's friends this time which was cool. We went to a pub called 'The Rat and Parrot' and had drinks there and basically watched dvds (Angel, Zach and Reba). The day I left was the day that London was hit by the bombs which meant that I was delayed on my train journey for about 2 hours extra. In addition to this my sister was also on a college trip to London aswell and had to be diverted back. I was dumped off at Shrub Hill station (a part of worcester I'm not familiar with) and had to leg it to the bus station to get the parish link with my sister. Saw 'The Descent' with mr fain and it scared the hell out of us. Went and spent the day with Nicki in oxford. Was quite wet and fortunatley she brought a map so we knew where we were going. We spent most of the time in the natural history museum. It was all together interesting because the book I was reading at the time was set around Oxford. Went and played golf with my brother. Went round to Kates for a BBQ. Was nice to see everyone from college again. Chivers and Harty who didnt want to drink and drive. Camped with Cumella in a tent in a field near the quarry. Bought some new DVDs (Hellboy, Big Fish, The Goonies [That Cumella loves],I Robot and Messiah 1+2). Finished Reading Instance of the Fingerpost, Finished 'The Rats' Bought my Harry Potter which I have not read yet. Took the dog to the kennels today. Grae's just told me that some film makers will be looking at his script tomorrow.

Well my first month away from aber has just finished and it has been quite a quiet one. I've been doing odd work really such as security for the funrun held here in worcester. In addition to this I'm doing a few shifts at the Wagon Wheel which gets me out of the house. My highlight of the month was my little venture down to visit Nicki for a week in Woking. It was one of the most relaxing times for me ever. At Aber I was always busy and at home I feel guilty if I have a lie in. So at Chobham it was very nice. She even took me to Horsell Common where in 'War of the Worlds' the spaceship crashed. Unfortunately this site is not in the new movie. We pretty much spent the week watching DVDs and stuff which was great fun. I've just done a talk today at my old college where I was part of a panel to inform AS students about the concept of University. I mumbled a few of my words and I think I came across a bit too strong as I was so excited about Aberystwyth. Watched Batman Begins with Mr. Fain and Ben and it is amazing. One of the best renditions of the dark knight I have ever seen. Probably watch it again. Started and well on the way to finally completing my portfolio of everything dramery I have done. Finished 'Altered Carbon'(the book Nicki lent me) and am now on 'An Instance of the Fingerpost'. Going to visit Nicki again next week and Ems there at the moment so that'll be a laugh. Got to start/finish the website for Curtain aswell as do something for Jon's birthday. Oh I also have a cameo in the new C&T play which I'm quite chuffed about. I play a mirror and a policeman. This month has been pretty quiet though compared to a month at aber.
