Right Said Fred. You know you remember it, and you know you'll be singing the damn thing for the rest of the day.

Back to college today - I had to torture you lot somehow, didn't I? If I can't do it through millions of random posts, then I'll get songs stuck in your head ^_^

I'm wearing far too many of my sister's accessories. I do look good though...

Part of me wants to say that was a miserable first day back. The other patr wants to say it was great. Seeing as there are many reasons it was great, and very few for it being shite, i'm leanings towards it being a good day back. I guess I'm just in the kind of mood where bad sinks in faster than good. Tired, basically. Only time you'll see me anything resembling emotional.

I hav a full timetable. I'd rather have a full timetable than an empty one (I'd d nothing if I had frees, and probably stop turning up to lessons too). Good things: Eng Lit is now with Roz, It is nowwith Jacobi. Thus, two lessons in which I knew few people, i now have friends! Bad things: Phys, i no longer have Hearn, Psych, i no longer have Anria. Thus, two lessons in which I have friends I now know, well, no-one.

I went into Psych in a negative mood. Plus tired. It didn't help that I walked in the room with my black studded collar, belt and top, big boots, and PINK trousers and immediately felt like an idiot. My conformist streak went "nooooo!" a la Gandalf falling into the ravine. It's also a class with only three guys. Experience has taught me that I intergrate much better in a mainly guy class. When we had our break I escape and hugged Anria, and tried not to whine at her too much. I said I thought I didn't think i had anything in common with anyone in the class. She asked something along the lines of "why do you think that?" Erm... I'm narrowminded, defeatist and didn't feel like even trying to get to know anyone? Went back determined to be a little more positive, armed with coffee, and continued not talking to a single person in the class and sitting a seat away from the nearest person.

Defeatist. That's completely how I felt. Huge pile of coursework I hadn't done (need to do so much more on the investigation and apparantly our questionnaire needs looking at closely, oh, and our hypothesis is too vague and we're meant to be working on the results but Ihaven't even done the method and we don't have any results because we haven't tested anyone yet...), didn't know the name of anyone in hte room, incuding the teacher and for some reason I cared. I spent three years at my old school sitting on my own, perfectly happy. I had several classes last year where I learnt the names of about half the class and rarely exchanged a word with them, and it didn't bother me. So i don't know why I'm making a fuss. It's a great teacher and an interesting class, and I'll bet everyone is really nice, but... I suspect part of me just doesn't want to make the effort. And part of me expected it all to be so easy this year, actually knowing people. I didn't expect to have to do the whole making acquaintances who'll tolerate me sitting near them thing again. I've got too much stuff going on to deal with other people right now.

Stuff I should be doing right now. See, my reaction to having too much to handle at once is to do none of it, and come and play on things like LiveJournal. Perhaps not the best of coping strategies... Anyone got some sand I can bury my head in?

To do, urgent:
IT Investigation, 16+ pages
Psych Investigation 2+ pages
Psych method, god knows how many pages
Psych experiment, 1 hour+
Psych results, 3+ pages (guessing)
Personal Statement, 1 page

All by the end of this week, along with various homeworks, lessons and trip to Exeter soon.

I'm blaming my negativity (I want there to be a 'negative' mood) on being tired, stressed and frustrated. I forgot - life doesn't roll over for you and won't do easy no matter how much you beg.

See, technically, it's been a great day. Lots of great things have happened. But it feels like a shit day because I'm on a bad mood. Cheer up, girl, cheer up! Sharn't. So there nuh.

If I don't stop now I'll just keep going aboutbeing defeatist and in a bad mood and then I'll get all self-analytical and then i'll whine and it's all bad, really. So I'll stop, and take sleeping pills tonight, and tomorrow will be all happy and sunny and good.

Going to see Rocky Horror Show tomorrow night. Just what I need, another late night.

And no, I'm not going to dress up. But it ought to be great fun, nevertheless. In preparation, I'm going to bed now. I just hope there isn't anything good on tv tonight,m because I'm going to miss it. Beeeedddd...

Edit:
I am going to bed, ys I am yes I am, but first, I am trying on clothes for RHS (okay, can't call Rocky Horror Show that - I certainly couldn't wear this outfit to the Royal Horticultural Society...). Anria, you remember the, um, teddy, right? Why I own a teddy is beyond me, havin no earthly use for such a thing, what with being immensely single and all, and even scarier is the source from whence it came: my mother. My mother gave me a teddy. Anyhoo, teddy, plus sparkly black tights (I may nick a pair of my sister's fishnets if she hasn't torn them all to shreds) lace up boots, and sparkly long jacket thingy because it's cold. And I look good. I supose that's hte point of sex-clothes - they're designed to flatter you. Woo!

Okay, chances are I'm not actually going to dress up to go to show, but it's fun anyway. My sister has a Basque she'll no doubt end up wearing ^_^ The question is how many other people are likely to dress up. Perhaps take cothes with us and change if we see others dressed up? Sounds like a good idea.

Now. Bed.
