I’ve noticed lately that HMV now asks you whether you’d like a bag or not instead of handing you a bag in ensure you’re only getting it if you actually need it. I think the idea is awesome and I’ve started to make sure that I’m saying no when it’s appropriate. So yeah, though this would be a good goal to achieve. Nothing to measure it by really but I suppose I’ll review this in 6 months time and see whether or not I’ve reduced the number of shopping bags I’ve picked up from my room.

I would advise you all to do the same since it does do a little good for the planet, plus people can see what epic films you are getting :p. I’ll think of some more environmental friendly projects to do since I do get a nicer feeling everytime I say no to shopping bags.

Everytime I visit quidco.co.uk I go “doh”. It’s an awesome site for saving some money with the whole affiliate incentive and I feel like I’m wasting the opportunity when I’ve realised I’ve not been using it to purchase stuff on play.com or whatever. So yeah, as a new 43thing, I’m hopefully going to get this damn thing sorted!

But yeah, already I’ve managed to preorder final fantasy 7 crisis core via play.com with quidco so woo!

Bought a new monitor so I thought I’d show off my desk hehe, it’s a lovely 24inch widescreen monitor, got myself a nice graphics card to compliment it too. Hopefully this will improve my productivity at home.

A portrait of someone who doesn’t want to be seen. Unlike most people who’ve got a portrait of themselves somewhere uploaded online, I always choose not to have my photos shown. I’m simply an online avatar until you’ve actually met me, nothing can ever beat meeting a someone in person. This is a submission to the Musers’ Playground

I’m definitely due for a visit. Got to make it through the whole uni malark first. Got loads of time afterwards. I better post my 3 words I’ll be using to cut my hair now in case I forget. I think they were eccentric, sophisticated and sex. It’s going to be fun hehe.

We booked tickets to see Phantom of the Opera :D. Been dying to see them now so woohoo. Most of the time was spent in Picadilly Circus, think we went to a chinese resturant to eat some duck.

Phantom Of The Opera

After we were stuffed and all we was off to see Phantom of the Opera. The show was amazing! The stage was amazing and the singers were pretty fun. I wanted to sing but B didnt let me hehe. Really made my dream come true hehe.

Also invited E. to the bash but we couldnt trust him too well in turning up, i only managed to get him to come, so it was pretty much hanging on fine fine thread.

Anyhows, enjoyed a nice sleep and went to B.’s house to see…
Phantom of the opera
I bet B. is shaking her head and going “dear god, why did i take him to see it”. Havent shut up about it ever since watching it.

After that we went back to B.’s place to organise the rest of the evening. Found out that E. couldnt go. Bastard, ah well. Meant we had to go as a foursome like last year. Was hoping B. met E., twould be fun like.
After meeting up with J. and R. we went to Nando’s to have a lovely night out, drinking wine and eating 15 chicken wings.
Nando Wings
Technically its 30 wings, as its two bits but yeah, twas a lovely evening. Go Lord of the Rings from B. and nowt from J. and R. due to their lack of student funding :D 20 is mucho weird. But hey, theres nowt you can do aye? The night ended and blah
