I am currently supposed to be doing my computing coursework as the deadline is looming with a large amount of work left to be done so now seems to be the perfect time to procrastinate by writing my first blog post in a very long time. I’d like to say that I can get to writing these as often/ as well as I did before, but that as yet remains to be seen.
So what has changed over time since I last wrote a blog post? Well me and Laura split up, not in the greatest of ways I hasten to add. If I know you off-internetz, you’ll likely know the, so out of order it’s funny, circumstances of this. Good riddance to her tbh.
I’m still at Strode’s, now in my 3rd year, and it sucks. Don’t get me wrong I love Strode’s, and the last 2 years there were amazing, especially compared to what it was like at school, but now I’m in my 3rd year it’s horrible. All the things that made Strode’s great in my first 2 years have now up and left for Uni. Where previously I loved my free periods because I got to spend time with my friends and now treat them with disdain as they normally involve sitting around somewhere for an hour or two either socializing with Maxwell or no one at all. That is one good aspect to come out of this I suppose, I’ve become closer with Maxwell again. Ever since I came back to college I have felt, with lack of a less pathetic word, lonely. I still get to hang out with friends outside of college, but there is something disconcerting about being somewhere you use to pass groups of friends down every corridor and now I can frequently go a week without speaking to more then 6 or 7 people there. Despite these feelings of “loneliness” I can’t bring myself to talk to anyone new at college, so I continue to walk around in my antisocial bubble looking grumpy.
With little of my free periods being spent socializing I am getting more work done and reading more books, which I suppose is good – would rather the socializing though. Another thing to change this year is that I’m now taking a Government & Politics AS, bringing the total amount of subjects I’ve studied at Strode’s up to 8. I’m really glad that I took up this course and regret not taking it up earlier. It has made me much more informed and opinionated on matters related to politics, to the annoyance of some people. It’s also strange how previously I saw Dr Jepson as mad man and that now I see him as a very respectable, yet a tad eccentric, man.
Right I feel my writing has now lost its momentum so seems like a good place to wrap up. I realize this was a pretty dull post but maybe I’ll be able to get back into the swing of things and write some good posts soon.
