    Thank goodness for Bank Holiday Monday

    Well for the third night running i'm up past midnight, pretty odd for me considuring the amount of work i've been doing recently, but after a week off i'm into old studenty, type habbits, playing games online till 2/3/4am in the morning.

    IT's just nice to be up at this time doing something fun and knowing you've not got work to go to tomorrow

    Anyone else love extra days off like i do?

    I have to write a program in java for an assignment due in on Tuesday. I have no idea what to do/how to do it because it is completely different from what I have been taught.

    Feeling bloody awful at the moment, already, and I'm guessing that I'm going to be working straight through 'til Tuesday, 4pm, in order to get it finished on time. So that's around 36 hours plus the 24 hours I've already been awake. Zipedy doodah.

    I have lectures and seminars, however i'm so bleeding ill I'm not actually going to them, for fear of my coughing ruining it for everyone else.

    Dunno if that's a good thing or a bad thing

    Big party saturday night. Went to bed @ 4am and got up at 6:30am. Then had work yesterday and was in zombie mode. As i'm in sales its not the sort of job you can even slightly get away with doing nothing aswell.

    I spelt from 10pm to 9am last night and still don't feel normal. I have work again. 12 - 6 today.
