toda....yesterday at 5 there was a welcome party in the film dept lobby for all the film students. i was standing around awkwardly with a drink in one hand and a small sausage roll in the other, usual procedure for a party, when i was hugged by a scotish bloke.
as a result i became part of a small group of other people he'd either hugged or knew already, and we got chatting. scottish bloke disappeared, then we were joined by a big beardy bloke who said he was called Bungle. we had a bit of a chat with him, then he suddenls stopped halfway through a sentance said 'excuse me i have to by some drugs' got out his mobile and wandered off.
then we realised hat it was just the group of hugged and scottish people knowing left out of everyone who had come to the party. after the lecturers left (it was only 6.30!) we decided to wander back to the halls, but stopped off at the coffee bar on the way, where we were met by Scottish Bloke again.
at the coffe bar, scottish bloke (called John), me, a girl called Sanchia and some guys called, Ian, Aidan, James and Matt chatted about various things, mostly film and music. then we left to go back to Halls, James and Ian dissapearing along the way, and went up to the part of the halls where Sanchia lives and John unofficially lives, where i met Luke (with big hair) and Rachael (from Manchester) and ate pizza, chatted some more and completely failed to get John to say 'och aye the noo'.
after that we retired to Rachaels bedroom (which was HUGE! probably cos its an en suite one) to watch Cube, which was about 6 people being trapped in a big cube full of smaller interlocking cubes full of booby traps and then trying to get out and rather good, then some Trap Door, which i've heard lots about but never seen before and was also rather good.
Aiden and Matt left, more chatting was done, then the fire alarm went off for the second time so we had to go outside, then came back and did not much at all until about half two.
they're all really great people, especially Sanchia, John, Rachael and Luke. hopefully will be seeing them again tomorrow. might try to get them to come into Stafford with me too.
oh, yes, i havent told you about the first time the fire alarm went off. it was 9 in the morning. i was asleep, but awake enough to know i was asleep and to be able to enjoy being asleep. i almost hit the ceiling. i was not too pleased. i did briefly chat to someone in a dressing gown who turned out to be the Matt mentioned above while we were standing around being let in.
the first one was almost certainly a drill. not sure what caused the second one, but it might have had something to do with the people coming out of the corridor opposite Sanchia and Rachaels who smelt of marijuana and booze and didnt reallly look all there.
anyhoo its three am now so im gonna get some sleep before the next fire alarm.
goodnight, you gorgeous people!
