Easter time

Today is Easter Sunday. I can't think of a better way to put it than how Speed put it to my flatmate: "Easter celebrates my love of chocolate like Valentine's day celebrates your love for your girlfriend", so true. And I do love chocolate, with all my heart. Not Nestle though, ergh! Cadburys! It is so amazingly gorgeous, I love it so. And for the record, Kinder is pretty cool, Galaxy is fair enough and any kind of Smarties goods, obv.

Can I just be stupidly negative a minute, just skip over this next paragraph. Basically, firstly, I have been working my ass off at uni, so much! I even got a mouth full of ulcers from working so hard (either that or from all the Kettle chips I was eating because I was working so hard (either way I was working too hard)). Usually I help clean the house throughout the year, but this last month I have literally had no time. So I thought, that's okay, the other six house mates should manage without me just this one month. But no, I was the second last person to leave for Easter and the house was left in the worst state it has ever been in. Great. So anyway, half way through cleaning our seven bedroom house I start panicking about my group report which had to be handed in by 4pm that day. (The same group report I had spent from 9am-2pm in the labs correcting bad grammar in almost every sentence). We were going to hand it in the day before but the hander-inner didn't manage it in time. Anyway, I told him to text me when he did it today to let me know, so when 2pm came I was obviously pretty worried. I phoned him three times and got answer phone. By 3am we had an hour to get the report in so I dropped the hover, grabbed my shoes and ran down to the labs to print an emergency copy. I was completely out of breath and almost at the building when I got a phone call saying "oh yeah, I handed it in two hours ago, sorry forgot to tell ya". Ahh man, I wish he had told me. Anyway, all ended well, I suppose!

The my last day in Cardiff was really fun. Me, Speed and Anthony (the kid who I was secretly reading his blog? yeah we're good friends now!) watched Clueless while we pigged out on food. Then I was going to have to spend the night on my own in the big house and, I know it's pathetic, but I don't like staying in the house on my own. (Maybe something to do with the prank my house mates played on me!) so I convinced them both to stay the night. We stayed up playing video games and chatting, it was really fun. We tried to stay up all night but then pussied out at 5:30, ahh well, good effort...

Sorry about the rant earlier, here's a funny to make up for it: my sisters call the fatter of our two rabbits anything really. But mainly "rabbit", "bunny", "fatty" 'fattness" etc. The rabbit was in the conservatory and had jumped on a flower pot that he wasn't allowed on. My older sister was out in the garden and shouted "fat boy, get down!". To her surprise someone replied with "what!?" and she looked around to see the (slightly overweight) builder up a ladder fixing next door's roof! How embarrasing! She ran inside to tell us all about it.

The stress is over for deciding on a dissertation topic! I had a nice long discussion with an ex-lecturer of mine and we decided on this title: "Simulation and Evaluation of Oportunistic Data Networks". What a mouthful. But it is really interesting! Way too long to explain here, but imagine a place with no Internet infrastructure (e.g. the army) and how messages could be sent for miles by passing the message from blutooth device to blutooth device that are all moving in different direction / different speeds. Well it is interesting, I promise.

On Thursday five of us are going to Thorpe park! I can't wait for some brilliant roller coasters, hope it's as good as Alton Towers! Speak to you soon!
