I must admit, i wouldn't be able to sleep whilst in area that could have a tornado, and the weather was a little bad that day/evening. Just for the fear of not waking up in time to get to a basement, I think the only way i'd be happy is if i was sleeping basically next to the basement door, if not in the basement! Love tornadoes... just don't want to be killed by one!
GN: Found a house that i really wana live in for the next year or more... but also viewed some other places that very horrible! but yeah the place i like is in a nice quiet area, has a garage and large back garden, the bedroom i'd have is massive! the kitchen and living room are a decent size too, and the rent will only be £260 per month!
which is very cheap compared to the other crappy places that were charging the same or more for something that was a lot smaller and didn't have a garage, let alone even a garden! And the landlord was very nice too, unlike the censored i've got for the flat!
GN: found out about some voluntary work in Northern Ireland, that's related to my degree... kind of wish i'll get it, but i know from some other voluntary work i applied for earlier this year with BGS, not to hold my breathe - i got on the 'backups' list, and heard about this voluntary work with Lonmin (3rd largest produces of platinium?!) through BGS. It'd be brilliant to get it - accommodation paid for, flights paid for, food is subsidised so don't need to pay much towards that, and you still get £250 a week!!!
plus the whole it's relevant to my degree, can use them as referee in the future etc
BN: I'm very pissed off with people, and waiting on a friend to finish work and meet me in the pub for a much needed drink. Will was meant to be coming round this evening with the bike boots and jacket ready for my training that starts this saturday, but that was only after having to wait for him to make his mind up over whether i could borrow it or not... and made me and my parents stress out and start looking at buying my own gear.
But yeah after waiting in until about 8:45pm and ringing him god knows how many times to find out where the hell he was, finally got an answer - he'd gone to collect something for his motorbike, but didn't think to tell me so then i could go out and meet some people earlier!
really starting to get very pissed off with him, he's meant to be a 'friend'
As well as i tried to ring another person a few times but they never answered their mobile.
GN/BN: got some calcium carbonate and vitamin D tablets from the doc earlier, as my vitamin D levels were low a month back, but i didn't realise it's not just spend a month out in the sun and your levels will be back to normal, she said it can take a year!
But i also went to see her as i had a bruise on my leg and it's left a pink mark still and took a good 1-2 months to disappear, plus i keep finding loads of bruises that i have no idea what caused them and then they take a couple weeks to disappear. so she's doing more bloods and then refering me.
Plus i can't seem to get my weight below 10stone 5lb and body fat below 29% either, no matter how much exercise, stopped snacking as much as i use to, and have started eating a lot more fruit and veg!
ugh... i need a drink... not had one for a few weeks now as i cut out alcohol or at least the beer every night in attempt to ditch some more weight, but it's not worked!
i know where that £20 i found in my room will be going tonight...
I hope you have a great time over there
