I was in earlier than I'd have liked this morning, as the bus came early. Well, technically the previous bus came late, but you get what I mean.
This morning we were
again left to our own devices. I knuckled down and completed my LRC Induction sheet due for submission on 27th October. I would've made a start on my
biographies project, but expecting Jeff to make an appearance, I didn't want to start without being able to finish.
Thing is, Jeff didn't make an appearance, so from 10:30 AM to 2:00 PM, I immersed myself in the World Wide Web. An argument on
Hob McD's blog between myself and an anonymous user has been the highlight of my day. Read it if you will.
I'm fairly sure that I know whom the perpetrator is because of the style of writing, the language used, and the speed in which replies were posted. If I am right and you are reading this: no hard feelings, as I thoroughly enjoyed it. And I won't be revealing your identity, so no worries there too.
If I am wrong, I still enjoyed the whole thing, as it shielded the mundanity of my day. So thanks either way.
Oh, and during the aforementioned argument, I also got myself a date for Friday night! More details to follow on that one though.
Anyway, at 2:00 PM the second of Sian's Context Studies lectures started in the Lecture Hall, which ran for approximately two hours. An hour into it, we were given a fifteen minute break to do whatever before watching a forty minute documentary. I remained seated, as did Zehra A. who sat in front of me. During this time, Sian came and had a wee chat with us, mainly to learn her two names of the day. Apparently my name is exotic. Wey-hey.
The documentary was really good - all about Joseph Campbell's
The Hero With a Thousand Faces and how it influenced George Lucas when re-drafting a certain script in 1975.
Duel of the Fates was excellently used as a piece of background music during the talking heads.
Whilst watching the documentary, I also found out who texted me a short while ago about
Shaun of the Dead, and again yesterday telling me
"Someones 'effin eaten' my Mars Bars!". The mystery texter was, in fact,
The Milky Bar Kid himself.

The Bill said that tonight's episode was on at 7:30 PM instead of 8:00 PM. But having re-arranged my busy schedule to watch it at the earlier time, it turns out it's on at 7:30 PM tomorrow. Bah.
