Life is too short

Diet day one

Mon, 05 Dec 2011 18:39:30 -0500

Ok so today I deiced to start my much needed and recommended diet . Day one went pretty well I ate an orange for breakfast and then a little mini orange during my lecture. Then at around 12 I ate my pink lady apple which by the way are the best apples in the world during my unexpected study break due to a friggen fire drill…………………..at least it wasn’t a real fire that would be bad. Vegetarianism curry with carrots and green beans for dinner. Because I did have a carb free breakfast I ended up really really hungry by 2 so that was when I decided to have my dinner ,which was really really tasty but spicy and i am not a mucho lover of spice but I hear spicy food is a calorie burner so props for that. I decided not to eat then after my dinner at two but because I was busy with study that was pretty easy although my hunger pangs got to me at about half nice so I decided on another pink lady. No I didn’t do any physical excersise today which is a bummer but with my Spanish exam and my English essay due tomorrow I simply didn’t have time but I will get cracking on that tomorrow or as soon as this god damn essay is finished. Anyway wish me luck.

A Ramble in St. James's Park by Lord John Wilmot

Sat, 03 Dec 2011 14:08:00 -0500

Much wine had passed, with grave discourse

Of who fucks who, and who does worse

(Such as you usually do hear

From those that diet at the Bear),

When I, who still take care to see

Drunkenness relieved by lechery,

Went out into St. James’s Park

To cool my head and fire my heart.

But though St. James has th’ honor on ‘t,

‘Tis consecrate to prick and cunt.

There, by a most incestuous birth,

Strange woods spring from the teeming earth;

For they relate how heretofore,

When ancient Pict began to whore,

Deluded of his assignation

(Jilting, it seems, was then in fashion),

Poor pensive lover, in this place

Would frig upon his mother’s face;

Whence rows of mandrakes tall did rise

Whose lewd tops fucked the very skies.

Each imitative branch does twine

In some loved fold of Aretine,

And nightly now beneath their shade

Are buggeries, rapes, and incests made.

Unto this all-sin-sheltering grove

Whores of the bulk and the alcove,

Great ladies, chambermaids, and drudges,

The ragpicker, and heiress trudges.

Carmen, divines, great lords, and tailors,

Prentices, poets, pimps, and jailers,

Footmen, fine fops do here arrive,

And here promiscuously they swive.

I Love my English lectures

The more I attended my English lectures I understand how you really do have to be slightly mad to study literature not to mention completely open to controversial ideas. Apart from the necessarily history which I do find boring my Lit classes are brilliant, NUIM lectures try to keep it as Interesting as possible. From sexy stokes whipping out a bottle of vino to prove a point regarding ”Confessions of an English opium eater” and drug taking. Too the brilliant Mr Highway giving out free sweets and giving us a hilarious lecture on libertine keeping nothing unexplained or to the imagination. I did not know back in 1st year that English that my lectures would be so filled with drugs, sex, and politics. The reading list is most definitively heavy and not actually complete-able but by god am I glad I decided to do an English degree.

Student march ....late response but better late than never.

Sat, 03 Dec 2011 12:14:28 -0500

Ok well I have been thinking a lot lately about what I want to do in the future, and how I do not want to be as fucked up as I am now. I have decided that so many people do talk about “controversial ideas” but I still think people are afraid to seriously talk about this. I also don’t think many Irish people are really standing up for their ideas to make an actually change. Let me explain what I mean by this before people go acting crazy. Yes we see Irish people moaning and giving out about our seriously messed up and confused government but no changes are really being made. Now I am not a huge political activist at all, I’m not going to pretend to understand all the parties and how the labour party is different from the green party in all there little and confusing ways. What I do what to note is that a few weeks ago I attended that March by the Student Unions of Ireland. This march went really well in my opinion it was completely peaceful and apart from the few stupid people I seen walking around with cans the march went smoothly. The Representatives of the S.U did there speech thing and really did get everybody excited yes yes yes but I have an issue.

As a person on involved in any committee or group on politics, I was just a normal student unhappy with the government going to support the cause. What did bother me is the depleting number of students that did not go to the protest. I asked around a few days before the lecture if people where going (trying to find friends to go with me so I wasn’t a loner). I was so surprised to hear most of my friends and people around me who were not going to the march where simply not bothered?? What is with that? I do not know about other universities but NUIM had posters EVERY where it was hard to miss and even more difficult not to see the importance of this march. Do my fellow students not understand that they will simply not be able to do a post-grad if the grant is cut so all you people who are thinking of becoming teachers, engineers, journalistic, social workers, academics, proper scientist in which I don’t know the name of etc will not be able to do this. These types of careers need post-grads. With friends doing degrees like law in Maynooth that have extremely stupid head of departments that did not mover tutorials I understand but the rest of your lazy gobshites if I hear you complain once about the grant cuts or post-grad cuts and you did nothing I will simply have to kick your ass……………………..or just get very angry and shoot you evil looks while making you look like a stupid person because if you don’t know me you wouldn’t know I am a chicken that would suck in a fight.

On a last note, as a student of the English department in Maynooth I would like to thank them for being so supportive of the march.
