Good morning everyone!
It's a beautiful Keele day here and being as such you will not be surprised to hear that it is raining! Yay! Well actually it's not raining right at this second which is just plain odd! However it did rain all during my run this morning, I know you just re-read that but you read it right the first time. I got up at 6:30am today and ran up to Holly Cross (where I used to live) and then back! Yay! I'm going to extend the route as I go up until I'm running last year's route as well which should mean I'll be running double the distance! *Claps* I think it's by no coincidence however that my back is giving me a little grief today but hey.. I'm a big boy, I'll get over it. And that's nothing compared to what my bed is doing to me!
I must have woken up at least half a dozen times last night which is a lot considering what a heavy sleeper I am (and before you assume, no. I don't snore!) on an average night I would wake up.. um.. NEVER! Thunder, Lightening, Drunk friends, Nothing ever wakes me up except for this damn mattress! I don't know if it's something I'll get used to or if it's something I'm going to have to fix but that combined with the chair I have which is RUBBISH will ensure I have back problems for the rest of my life I'm sure.. Woo Hoo!
In lighter news (I know, that was a bit too heavy for me wasn't it!?) I had a pizza for tea last night! It was super yummy! Kylie and I split it but being the greedy pigs that we are that allowed us to each get starters without feeling guilty which in turn meant that each of us spent the same each as we could have on a medium pizza each instead (I know that english needs cleaning up but I'm too tired to work out where I went wrong.. sorry lol) oh! And Han had potato wedges from Dominos with her rather yummy looking hand made beef burgers! (she is a talented girl!)
I saved the best news until last however; MAY IS HERE! Yay!!! May got here yesterday with her parents (I love her parent's! They're kick ass!) and now the family is complete! Yay! It's so nice to have the flat full now!
Right, I had better get dressed I think!
Peace and Love x
I've done a lot of sleeping lately! This afternoon once I'd woken up I went and met up with Roo and Faye and we went down to Keele Hall and sat in what sun was left, it's nice being at uni without lectures lol.

We realised that a tour around Keele takes about 15 minutes and then that's it lol. I cooked a chicken korma for dinner and we waddled down to Lindsay bar for a couple of pints and an intense game of Table Football, after 5 games Luke came out on top with a final score of 3:2 - Damn it!!
Realising that Lindsay Bar is crap once you run out of 50p peices for the football table so I gave in to Luke and we went down to the Students Union where we met up with Katy and Pipper, I drank way too much.. We bumped into Megan too and ended up in The Lounge where I ended up talking to a bunch of randomers and found out about this girl who's been getting it on with two guys but only one knows about it.. ooohh! Saucy!
We waddled back to Holly Cross, I remember drunk-dialing Charlie (Laura D) when I was on my way back, I found a comment on my facebook thisafternoon asking me if I remembered calling her lol. When we got back Vicky and her Chris made us toast (awesome!)
I got Megan off to bed and then the four of us from the S.U. ended up in my room, Luke fell asleep on the floor, Pip fell asleep on my bed and Katy and I ended up sleeping in hers until about 6 when I woke up and we went to kick Pip out of my bed.
Luke woke me up thismorning the cheaky bugger! I was rather hung over.. oh dear.. We've been watching Heroes for hours now (Luke is completely addicted! lol) We're all going out for a meal later which I'll be lovely! Yay!

What a lovely evening we had on Wednesday evening!
The humanities department threw a ball for all of the humanities students an as an American Studies Student I qualified to go (although we were allowed to take guests so it didn't really matter lol)
There's a load of photos on my flickr if you want to check them out!
Robin and Nat did some dancing (below) good times!
I ended up having far too much to drink but didn't have too bad of a hangover in the morning so yay! And I didn't do anything too stupid either.. although I did manage to piss off a woman called Ann who's one of Roo's tutors when my fist accidently collided with her boob.. mind you she forgave me when I bought her a large glass of wine lol.
Anyway, check out the photos, they tell the story of the night really :)

So the story is this, I got a set of 7 moustaches from Father Christmas and had a few left over so Hannah, Roo, Robin, Nat and I slapped them on and wondered down on to campus to get supplies for the evening. Photos included below! :D

I had a really yummy bacon sandwich for lunch!
I managed to make some progress on my baking box too - the easter break starts on Friday, I've got a month off but we also have to take everything out of our accommodation before we leave and in an effort to bring back as little stuff as I need I've been trying to use up all of the food I have left which includes a hell of a lot of baking goods in my 'Baking Box'.
So far this has taken the form of:
1. A few batches of Flapjacks.
2. A couple of hundred little cakes.
3. A bunch of cookies!
The weather was beautiful yesterday so Chloe (Tats), Sam (Fitz), Chris (Bushy), Louisa, Robin, Nat, Faye, Tom and I all went down to Keele Hall. We took a load of cookies of course!
It was funny walking down because it looked just like they try to make the university look in the perspectus; students strewn across the lawns with icecreams and textbooks. Well that's how it was on campus, once we got into the gardents at Keele Hall the beer was out as were Sam and Robin's guitars and Tat's beautiful voice. It was really lovely sitting in the sun in my shades singing along with my friends.
In the evening a bunch of us went out to The Pig and Rat and then down to Lindsay Bar where we had a good sing along again with some live music. Tottled back after that with everyone and all squeezed into the kitchen where I met a couple of Sam's lovely friends; Sarah, Sophie, and Louise who were very impressed by the fact that my coridoor had a housemate who would come back in from the bar and start to bake cookies!
I have to admit though, in the process of trying to double the mix I managed to double some of the wrong volumes for some ingredients.. as a concequence they went a little bit wrong to start with - too much butter meant that they went a little bit.. flat.. and by that I mean they looked like a sun-baked cow-pat.. on the plus side Sarah and I tried adding loads of flour and managed to balance it out and by the end of the evening they were comming out much better, mind you even at their rubbish stage they were being eaten faster than I could make them lol.
There was a funny moment when Robin went into the hall and we heard, "oh Sh*t! There's a F*cking Massive Spider Out Here!" - (Robin doesn't like spiders.. lol) It was pretty big actually but I managed to catch it in my hands (Manly! lol) and we took it upstairs to Chris' room and fed it to his Praying Mantis, aka Yoda, who is getting HUGE!
Right, well I think it's time for me to bake the rest of the mix from last night and take some cookies up to Alice and Sophie! lol.

We were due to have rain today I think but instead we've had snow! Naturally I made a video of it (which didn't compress very well either):
I think I'll make myself a nice hot chocolate to warm me up! :)
