Good to hear!

I'm alright, heading back into college next week so sorting through my notes from last year, it's FUN I tells ya. Don't remember half of it.

I love college, but not looking forward to seeing what 8am looks like again though! :pac:

Ah the student life. Would be great if it wasn't for the studying and the lectures.

I'm up about 8:30 every morning. I'm meant to start work at 8:30 so usually about 15 minutes late. The punctuality in here is amazing. Everyone out the door at 4:30 on the dot. Not so punctual coming in.

Including a run, filling my bucket for my bucket bath, boiling water for drinking during the day, making breakfast and a 15min walk to the hospital. I think I'm doing pretty well

Bought this and this earlier on to add to my Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Dawn of the Dead ones.

I do love classic horror tees.

I will allow that. If someone said to me a year ago I'd be using a bucket and a cup to shower, I would have laughed too!

We used to have mobile showers for camping with scout Daisies- dunno if it's be any use to you but its worth a look. For all the world they're like a drip bag with a hose off it that you hang in a tree.
Though showering outside probably isn't an option where you are....

It's a homeless charity, seemingly very good. We are cycling 140km and have to raise €400 each. Having a table quiz in Diceys on 12 September, check sig for details Or you can just support my by clicking the other link!

Mods delete if this isn't appropriate!

Meh, the students would get a great kick out of that. Also I wouldn't want to show my shoulder boobs or knee boobs over here!

Daisies and grames, you win the ridiculously early morning competition! You win a...I dunno, vuvuzela player to wake you up? :P
Note: may be completely and utterly made up..

Go to lecture, leave for bathroom, get ready IN bathroom. Return looking a) sober, b) awake and very VERY interested in said lecture. Simple!

I know, it's cramping my style man! I do love college though, I get to paint and pretend to be a butterfly or read a story.. so very grown up.

Shurrup you. :pac:

There's one lecture that I sat through all year and can't remember a thing - not a thing. Except that during the exams I had to study otitis media and my brain kept correcting it to Otis. (You SEE what tGC is doing to me? :pac: )Literally the only thing I remember about it...

Nah, I was just away! But back now, so it's all good.

Yup, ya gotta cover your shoulders and knees or have your moral integrity questioned. As a result we call them shoulder boobs and knee boobs!

Mobile shower to me will always be deodorant, aka Portable shower, aka shower in a can. At least that's what they're called at music festivals.

Am I the only one having a hard time not picturing someone with shoulder boobs and knee boobs?

I've spent the last 20+ minutes looking for that picture from The Simpsons (Huckleberry Finn episode) of the woman flashing her ankle, but I can't find it. So we'll just have to pretend that's what's here instead of all this writing.
