Oh man. That was the funniest thing ever. I saw Squiggles running across Front Square. It was close to the Inaugural so I thought he was going to do some stuff for it. The Big Fella wanted it to go smoothly. And Squiggles, being the legend that he is, was doing that and posters to keep The Big Fella happy. And general posters. And being a legend of a Censor and a guy in general. So I presumed he was bailing to the Laser Huts. I mean, it was 7 p.m. on a Friday. Perfect time to spend a few hours doing Hist work.
Then I got to the Building. That's when the fun really began. The b******s had busted the lock on the Committee Room door. And I had just cracked down on people slamming the door and not locking it properly so as to protect the lock and the door. Of course, the attempted thieves had gone and broken part of the frame. Sigh. And the replacement lock didn't really work either. Double sigh. This angered me because I had become a guy who was deeply interested in locks and keys (Shiny keys! That, and I had to make sure no-one lost the damn things).
And not to start an argument but I did have the power, within the context of The Society's Laws at least. I also could have summoned my Army of Schoolies using the Convenor stick or my special Conveney Whistle.
The (subsequently amended) section of The Hist's Laws, Chapter XI - The Librarian, Law 3 states "The Librarian shall have general charge of the Rooms, and in the event of any property being missing or willfully damaged he shall immediately bring the matter under the notice of the General Committee". The new laws actually give the Librarian the power to issue fines. The Auditor and I specifically wanted that added. The old law meant that one email and anyone could either be fined or expelled. Fining means you can't use the Society's facilities until you pay and expulsion means you are not permitted in the Conversation Room under the agreement with College. Not that I was actually going to do that. I just wanted people to stop messing with the lightbulbs. I had too much else going on and I really didn't want to spend my time with Buildings' Office, spending ages with them getting them to fix things. (I spent 20 hours a week on Schools'). But I was far too stressed to say it politely. There was an awful lot going on during the year (Look, teacher lady, it's 8pm on a Sunday, I'm buying ham, can you ring me back?). I should have just asked you to stop. I apologise. At times I acted like a bit of a tool last year due to an awful lot of stuff going on in my life. That's not an excuse, just an explanation. Sorry about that Enda. Bygones?
As for Atomic Kitten, they ruined Eternal Flame. How dare they! Speaking of cheesey music, I'm listenng to Europe - Final Coundown

Ah cheesey love songs. I am a big fan of them and power ballads so I like Bryan Adams' (Everything I Do) I Do It For You... "Don't tell me, it's not worth tryin' for...."
Which reminds me. Time for some Bon Jovi. Hmm. I choose "Blaze of Glory". Oh yeah. 0 -

I am currently touching/eating a 500g bag of Greek sugar-filled candy. Praise be to Zeus!

I make the rules and can ammend them at any time of my choosing. Good luck with the other thingBartron Prime wrote:Yes, but I am more than 10 feet away from you. So I can say what I like. And Article 2.9 doesn't apply to me. And if you try to enforce it, I wish to make use of Article 2.15. Your skull won't, but I like fire extinguishers..... 0 -

It is a fantastic album. Which reminds me. Come to me ITunes.. There we go: Muse - Map of the Problematique. Quality track.
But yes, he is a bit of a tool. And just unattractive. Now while I have nothing against Heroin Chic (one of my good friends, the crazy guy, looks like he spent several years in an Irvine Welsh novel) Bellamy takes it that bit too far. Oh, and the arrogance. A character trait I despise. That said, can't wait to see them live in The Point in November. 0
