I dragged my butt up to uni at 9am yesterday, battled the unstable and, quite frankly, terrifying rises in the EDUC building (the building is appalling, nothing works). It was a chore. But the lecture was quite interesting - we learnt about what happens when prisoners are released on remand. I'm not sure quite how representative the examples that were given are, but it was still interesting.
Afterwards, i was supposed to meet Loz for coffee, but she didn't show... which left me with a four hour break to fill. Damn. An hour on facebook... and then three hours sitting in the freezing cold in the law courtyard. I got quite a lot of study done, but it was fairly boring. The SouthAfrican wantered past and stopped for a coffee which was a nice distraction, and at one point another girl from my class sat with me and we hung out for a bit. I made it through a coffee and an apple juice. Four hours can go very slowly...
By the time we got to our trust lecture, my extremities were numbed. However, my day was about to get an awful lot better. During our break, El, Pi and i headed to the vending machines for sustenance. An attemp to get toblerone resulted in the machine eating our money (we were pooling our shrapnel to see how much we could get) and we were fairly despondent... until we hit C5 to get a hot chocolate - and it came out for free!! Naturally, we tried it again - and got another free one! We got six free hot choc's before the machine decided that it'd had enough. Awesome! We gave some away, but that left plenty for ourselves. More than enough to get us through the second half of the trusts lecture! WOO!! Free stuff is enough to make any day better.
That evening, El and i went to see Wolverine with some of the girls. It was completely awesome. Not only did it have a gorgeous Hugh Jackman and a smoking Ryan Reynolds, but it had fight scenes, suspense, mystery, sadness (ohh, the sadness), intrigue, and links to the other movies. And a cliffhanger ending. Our row seemed to make more noise than anyone else, yelping with suspense in the fight scenes... everyone knows how involved i get in movies! Anyway, if you haven't seen it, you must. Must! It's a can't miss.
All in all, a pretty good day. Amazing, seeing as it was a monday!
