Ohhh Hiii

Today is final hand-in day, which means that my last ever pieces of assessed work, ever, will be submitted for review. Of course, it's never really over; I have to give back some older pieces of work in a big blue box in a couple of weeks, then I have a tutorial mid-June, and of course the dreaded GRADUATION CEREMONY, which requires me to wear a stupid gown and a stupid hat and I'm just thinking why why why? This University has never exactly been formal, it'd be more fitting if we wore boardies and had a barbeque on the BEACH.

So even though I keep saying I'm nearly finished, what I mean is that another hurdle has been crossed. I won't be totally done until I've left this place.

In the meantime, I've been adventuring a lot with some friends, taking in new bits of Cornwall and re-appreciating old bits, and I've done a few solo expeditions, one of which nearly ended in my death. I also recorded some songs (which I put a link to below) and am working on some short stories etc., but it's a bit hard being home alone in a small house in a small town and trying to find some purpose. I'm going to try and get a car, and maybe a job. I can't believe I just wrote that, it's probably a lie, but one can dream.

Anyhow, for some reason I've been waking up around 7.30 every morning feeling stressed. Maybe it's accumulated from my youth when I was such a chilled out guy. Maybe it's a premonition. Maybe I've finally cracked. But then, I do live in the CRACK HOUSE.
