An Unexpected Occurance...

[The title refers to the updating to this blog, as opposed to something exciting and unexpected having occured. Sorry to give you false hope]

Friends of mine (okay, one) have been fully taken in by the concept of "Blog Every Day April" (in which they do as the name suggests, duh), which has lead to some fairly creative and unique posts, and also made me feel less ashamed that I am a stalker - if one places information in a way so readily available to all, then I don't have to spend my evenings hiding in dustbins, which is always a good thing.

Regular readers (if there are any of you!) will realise I'm joking. I don't spend my evenings in dustbins. I have far too much pride. Plus it's easier online.

Anyway, BEDA (as I understand the acronym to be) is partially the reason I write today. Many people are taking time out of their day to write something constructive, informative, and often entertaining about their lives - the least I can do is offer an "almost appology" where I don't actually say it.

Oh, while I'm referencing myself - I'm very impressed with the direction (US) "Life on Mars" has taken towards becoming it's own show. Well done!

Here's the life update you were all hanging out for (it's my blog, I'll write what I want to write, and you'll appreciate every nugget of wisdom, got it?):

I'm currently studying Bullshitology 101 (read "PR"), and loving every (well, figuratively) minute of it! PR is one of the few things that genuinely fills me with enthusiasm and eagerness (something I never thought I'd say about ANY form of learning), and am actually quite good at (one of my lecturers called me "a natural", although she may have meant to say "cynical bastard").

The other HUGE thing is my absolutely fantastic girlfriend Bethany, who I've now been with for three months - she makes me smile all the time (friends will be gasping at this point), and is unique, funny, and brilliantly creative. As well as being insanely HOT. Actually, I should have put this first because she is, without question, the single most important thing in my life.

I still live at home - many query why my quest for independence hasn't extended to my abode, and I tell them this: sometimes it's nice not to have to worry about big things, just crash into a bed with sheets someone has lovingly washed for you, and surround yourself with people who love you unconditionally.

To the more skeptical I say: " I have no money - are you offering to buy me a place?"

I haven't fixed my relationship with my step-mother, but I do get to see the kids, so really that situation is fine.

I've been finally getting enough sleep - I only have class three days a week, so there's time to catch up, should I miss any, and I usually drift off at a reasonable time. I finally feel less stressed, and more relaxed.

I haven't seen my shrink in a month, because I am too lazy to make an appointment, and the same effect can be gained by printing off pictures of people's faces, sticking them to a pillow, and beating the crap out of them (and you can do it in the privacy of your own home!)

I've eased up on junk food - mostly because I have very little money (which is as good a reason as any!), but also because I've found a place that does amazing quality (and quite healthy) pizzas for only $4 right next to campus.

I'm going to wrap up there, because I've probably rabbited on long enough, and you don't want to spend your entire lives drabbed in my frustratingly dull (lack of) exploits, and the Olympics is coming up in a couple of years and I do want to watch it.

So appologies for any mistakes (I'm writting on my iPod Touch from the safety of my bef), look for my coming in May (I have some stuff lined up) and the next drink's on me.

Adieu.
