Lost
Tuesday, June 07, 2005
Teenwolf sent me a file earlier and I can only believe it may prove to be the next bad thing for me. 'Lost' is yet another American drama series and it happens to be running right now while the O.C. takes it's summer break. From the first episode it's looking good, if not a little contrived and sci-fi, but I could get into it.
The immediate objective for the next few days is to stop myself being sucked into another TV vortex; exams are already hurtling around and I can't afford to take my eye of the ball.
I spent most of today locked inside Bridgeman, exposing myself to dangerous levels of polymer processing, metal forming and oscillator building revision. This slog is clearly taking effect on me and keeping my eyes open is becoming an ever more difficult task. Yawn.
Devito, The Swan and myself ate in Linford today. A first occurrence for me, but Towers food has become almost inedible in the past two weeks (to everyone's annoyance) and so we swapped our usual diner venue for the luxuries of our other option, located over the EHB. It's strange, but this dining hall has always been seen as a 'punishment' if you ever abused the Towers dining hall, however, for the extra two minutes it takes to walk there, the supersized portions, speed of service with a clean, new and calm atmosphere easily outweighs eating in the Tower. I think we may do it again.
Someone set the fire alarm off today, and according to reports, the fullscale evacuation of the Tower began with an incident on West 19, which means that it probably has something to do with Neil or Little Dave, the Rodney and Delboy of the hall. Although I have had no confirmation, from what I have pieced together it looks like someone set off a smoke bomb, and the screams we heard through the floor briefly before the sirens sounded were related to the incident.
Tomorrow I aim to conclude the first round of materials revision before lunch, and then in the afternoon present John McCardle with a comprehensive list of things 'I don't understand' at the electronics revision session. If no-one else turns up me and Tim might even get them all answered.
