Frantic speed typing

Hello. This occasion I am writing up this entry really fast since I have about 10 minutes before midnight.
Not that it's a problem, I can just edit it the rest of the way.

Went to the library to print out those recommended book references. 3 B&W pages cost a whole £1.20 - that's breaking the modest job pricing a little too high. Checked up one or two books on yonder computer in e-zone and located the coded numbers for 'em. There wasn't a pen to jot this down on the handy slips made this such a task however, so I made a mental note of at least one book. It wasn't there, though, and the 'animation' section was checked top to bottom by me.

Tough luck. Headed back to try and start on the rest of the comic strips. I've banged on about this for too long, now. Keeping track of the comics was awkward since I've already committed myself to writing this blog, though it has been in handy for referring back to what ever happened on a particular day to draw up.
This never happened though, fucking procrastination. Some comic strips I've done look abysmal, and I should really re-draw them with better attention to detail.

Went to Waitrose for the obligatory stock up on goods. Bought some Ben & Jerry's ice cream out of the blue. I notice the entire student village is just dead. Not a sound or person to ever be seen wondering the street (that is until night falls). Had a go playing around on Minecraft Alpha for a bit. It's meh. I guess with stuff going on, I feel less inclined to enjoy stuff.

Took all 20+ bottles down to the bank, making plentiful ear splitting racket along the way. When I got back, Yannis and Sophie were outside. It was a beautiful evening tonight (and a brilliant blue sky today, and hot sun too) so the duo along with Rob were gonna head off to the fieldly hill up behind the campus for some photography. Sophie stumbled back in a freak out when she noticed Dan poking his head out the window silently watching her for a while. He came along, as well.

The sky really was nice, I'm sort of pissed that I didn't think ahead or bother to run back in and get my camera. I watched Yannis take some photos and on occasion asked him some advice on the process of it. We were doing this over an apparent crop field, and despite making a note on this Sophie was insistent on believing it wasn't ("But why would they do it behind something like a University?" "Because farmers are greedy/desperate."). Farnham looked nice from further atop the hill. I hope fireworks will be easy to witness from there.

Got back and cooked up a ready meal - Chicken Alexander. During cooking, Holly rang me up regarding a favour, and I had the opportunity to catch up with Ben. Nom nom nom'd the meal and thereafter cleaned up the kitchen ready for inspection. Yannis came in, and I asked how his photos came out. He sounded indifferent, and it seems because landscape photography isn't his thing. For Yannis, architecture is apparently where it's at. Coming back up, I saw Rob play on an old Gameboy Colour. Those things sure bring back memories. I last saw PJ playing one, so I assumed it was his. In fact, it is Yannis's. Rob was deep in concentration playing Super Mario Land. We talked about games, whilst we were at it.

Sophie, Georgia and Yannis were up in the kitchen with us, and Yannis avidly told Georgia a run down on how to make a traditional greek soup. Of a tidbit he deemed necessary was "I like to make shapes with my cheese." I had a go on the Gameboy. I never realised Inferno Gallop was playing at some points in Super Mario Land.
