senior resident?

firstly i would like to say im not going to bother with punctuation bearing in mind that it is 01:21 just after my first shift as senior resident at college. its been a good week and a bit, but it hasnt been easy. this place was so much better before the kids came back. at least the first week i stopped working at or around 17:00. wow im so tired by now but i know i wont be able to fall asleep. today started at 07:30 so i could get a shower in before breakfast. bus duty was next which is kind of like throwing scrambled egg, its a frenzied and chaotic experience. after that there wasnt much to do so i ended up doing my washing (before everybody has to do theirs). i had a little kip after lunch to help me stay awake later worked quite well considering im still up and its now 01:30. my god im hungry i might have a bowl of cereal. anyway about 18:00 came and i started my rounds feeling a bit full of myself with a radio on my hip and smiley face drawn on my arm in green marker pen (in fact i would go as far as to say i was cocky). things went smoothly for a while i made it my job to get people enthuisiatic about the party they were running at the bar, this had mixed results but i was happy. it was about two hours later that i was some what deflated. the radio had run out of battery and was charging in the office. the smiley face was covered by my coat. my feet hurt. i had a headache and the game and wildlife lads were tormenting the other student. but despite all this i still went and got the wardens instead of killing everybody with my bare hands. so i call the night a raging success, mostly because i handed out a level two displinary to one of the game lads that has been giving me hassle since he got here. anyway its now 01:39 and i should be in bed by now so im off and next time i will actually be practicing my spelling and grammer not rambling like an old man on crack cocaine. Kez out

Old harry's game, cars and cramps

So many hours in the car, five to be exact. Car cramps developed bigtime in my knees but that will go. enjoyed five hours of old harry's game while we endured five hours of car. College tomorrow and to say I'm not at least slightly nervous would be a lie, I don't think that watching my cousins game is helping at all. No writing today at all but I have some pretty nifty idea's for some poems...

Getting started

First blog, first OCA course and not my first time at college. Lots to do today admittedly i should be packing but i seem to be more enthusiastic about it all than normal (except packing maybe). Three cheers for the OCA still being awesome even when the open university goes to pot (cliche (first writing joke on the blog)) I'm doing a level one forty point course in creative writing. poetry is more my thing but you don't know you can't swing cats in enclosed spaces until you try. Turns out swinging cats isn't that hard i got some decent marks from the OU on my previous writing course so I'm hoping for some this time round. Of course last time i had nothing better to do and i still left it to the last minute this time I'm living at college full time and working there while i do this course. Should be interesting. I'm not certain who will read this blog i think my mother will and my OCA tutor has too, for this i apologize but then maybe they can both turn my random drifting monologues into concise and entertaining ones. Another thing is how to sign off i suppose since I,m on a public service course at college i shall sign off with Kez out
