i don't know

neighbours

Wed, 11 Apr 2007 14:33:56 GMT

Now. I was watching tv yesterday and I glanced over bbc 1 and neighbours was on. I don't usually watch it so you can imagine my surprise when Karl had a horrid facial slur. And by facial slur I mean a beard. But it wasn't a proper beard, it was a "I haven't shaved for a week" thing. Alan Fletcher looks so lovely clean shaven, why is he like this now? Obviously I'm not going to watch any more Neighbours so you have to tell me.

Tom and Beth I expect you to reply.

Don't worry kids!

I made up for it by eating half a loaf of bread when Will went to the doctor's. And then we got pizza and I ate the most pizza ever.

Unfortunately I have now caught his male death flu and I feel like utter shit. Although I'm pretending I'm fine so eventually I can make him feel bad for laying around like a big rubbisher when he was sick. Although a little bit of me wants to let him look after me. The good thing about being sick is I'm not hungry. Not even a little bit.

Making our way slowly down to London via Wyton and Egham, then to Richmond and Kew Gardens and maybe a slingshot round the M25 to Essex via Reigate. Who knows, it's like a crazy mystery wheel of wonder. And that's alliteration so it must be true.

I'm off to vomit. Laters.

My unfailing neuroticism

Tue, 03 Apr 2007 07:50:22 GMT

Is that even a word?

Okay so I went to breakfast on my own because Will had to go to work early. So I get dressed and trot down to the dining room, feeling quite confident because I know how I'm meant to order breakfast (each mess is different - some you serve yourself, others you order everything from the staff, some you only order hot food, some you have to write down requests etc etc). I go in, and cleverly (well I think it's clever at the time) saunter over to get some grapefruit juice and check back and get a paper, so the mess staff see me and I can order a bacon sandwich and everything will be fine and happy.

But of course, I sit down, and the mess staff don't see me, and because I'm sitting with two strangers and I don't really know what I should do I just sit there going red, and I wonder whether I can just get up and go over to the staff and ask, and I probably can but I've left it too late now. I can't go back and get toast or cereal because then everyone will know I originally wanted hot food but couldn't get the attention of the mess staff. So I sit there with some juice and the times and pretend like it's what I meant to do all along. In fact I even go and get another grapefruit juice.

I AM SO FUCKING HUNGRY.

But of course I can't admit this to Will so I lie and say that I feel sick and I'm not hungry so he doesn't realise how socially inept I am. And now I can't even make up for it at lunch because I've said I don't feel well. It's like when you tell your parents you're sick so you can stay off school and then it backfires because they make you lay in bed all day with the light off.

I can't stop thinking of bacon sandwiches.

And now I can't even eat the food I have in the room because Will's got a cold so he can't fly so he's hanging around waiting for doctor's appt. I am going to lose so much weight here if I can't pluck up the courage to ask for food. Welcome to the insane world of Liz.

oh i was meant to do work so instead i procrastinated and made butter shortcake and i have eaten SO MUCH and i barely managed to roll into university and i'm covered in flour and plum juice and i didn't wipe the makeup from yesterday off i am a STATE

on a more positive note, i think my breasts are almost as big as roger roger.

Tue, 20 Mar 2007 08:09:06 GMT

I've somehow managed to get into an awful habit of going to bed at 2230 and waking up at 0500. it snowed this morning again, but no one ever believes me because they don't get up early. I sprayed two types of perfume on me by mistake and i smell like sick. how embarrassing. i think the kids are gonna pick on me at school. ooh i've always wanted to give a pink slip out, it's like their ultimate form of punishment. anyway, will be late for school and that is bad.

Because Phil told me...

Mon, 19 Mar 2007 11:07:33 GMT

Tell me if I've got it wrong, but a little birdy told me poifaerie was having her assessment tomorrow for Physics in the Classroom so this post is for the wishing of luck. To demonstrate this I have drawn a picture:

Good luck lizface. If I have got it wrong, well here's a little picture I drew cos I was thinking of you.

Thu, 15 Mar 2007 11:43:45 GMT

I am still fascinated by pictures of my brains. i show them to complete strangers in the physics dept. I'm going to frame one and give it to mum for mothers day:

"happy mother's day"
"what? what is this?"
"well YOU made it."

etc etc.

however a medic fiend (tried to write friend and ahaha, how convenient) had this to say:

"is that a picture of your brain? cool! there's loads of blood..."
"what? is that good?"
"um maybe i'm wrong... if it is then no it isn't good."

she's a final year medic. A FINAL YEAR MEDIC! having said that whenever you have a headache she diagnoses cancer so maybe I'll ignore her.

anyone want to explore physics at royal holloway? there's a nature trail...

Pictures of my Brains

Tue, 13 Mar 2007 12:58:07 GMT

Okay these pictures are a little weird. As I said on Sunday I had an MRI scan last week, and here are the pictures. And on of me underwater. But that's not of my brains.

Also I have a feeling that that mika person is a bit of a twat, but i have no evidence for this. I'm still teaching sixth formers, only a couple of weeks left now, boo. I really like the lower sixth, even if they really frustrate me sometimes with their refusal to learn. we were doing their coursework practicals today, it was mostly exhausting. but a little bit cool because they've finally trusted me enough to ask for help with their circuits and stuff. well. probably because the teacher and the lab assistant were busy.

took the jenface to hospital yesterday with a suspected broken foot/ankle/whatever. she was in and out in 50 mins, it was well quick. i got to push her around in a wheelchair, it was great. she's okay.

ooh just had blueberry and vanilla ice cream made with liquid nitrogen. i love physics.

Sun, 11 Mar 2007 14:33:22 GMT

yo! all seems pretty well. I'm neurotic as usual but when was I ever not? Finding it increasingly difficult to go without seeing Will for more than a week. This means I don't go out during the week anymore so that I can save money for the train fare for the weekend, and that I see his parents more than I see mine. But I don't mind, cos he gave me a creme egg this morning. that's not slang for anything.

we don't really do anything madly exciting, we tend to get drunk on Friday night with the other guys in the mess and go to either Lincoln or Slagford and buy pizza, we go out on Saturday and maybe watch a film at night (after binge-eating the pizza from the night before for breakfast) and then listen to radio four and do our work on Sunday, me doing Physics revision and Will learning his checks. Soon he'll give me a lift to the station and I'll have a lonely train journey back to London, it'll be rubbish.

I can't help wondering what's going to happen come September, when I join the RAF. We'll never have more than a weekend together. It'll be at least three years for me before I get posted somewhere and I even begin to think about getting a house. So it's hard at the moment, and it'll only get harder. but it's okay really. Nothing's the end of the world, and the sun is shining and I've had the first creme egg of the year, and who knows? maybe west ham won't get relegated, and the pupils I teach are bright and I think they can do well, and they seem happy too, so the world isn't all bad.

In other news I had an mri scan (they needed volunteers) and they said my brain was normal. hooray!

From now on...

Wed, 21 Feb 2007 19:20:28 GMT

1. Dan and I were talking about if you could have sex with someone but be really quiet so they didn't know. I volunteered the term "Sex Ninja" for this, Dan voluteered the term "rapist". We laughed out loud at our mutual joke. From now on all rapists will be known as Sex Ninjas.

2. I mentioned to Dan that something would be "unuseful". We agreed this wasn't a real word - the correct version is "not useful". Even though it wasn't a real word, it was clear that "unuseful" was understood in context. When Dan proposed that "unuseful" is the reciprocal of "useful", I demanded that from now on we no longer use negatives, but state that something's negative is the reciprocal of the aforementioned something. For example: "Dan Brown's writing is the reciprocal of brilliance.".

3. I just managed to write the sentence: "In particle physics accelerators are used to accelerate particles." This isn't a from now on thing but it is still an absolutely ridiculous sentence.

Dan finishes work soon. Then dinner. Hooray.

P.S. The only time you shouldn't use the reciprocal thing is when stating that there is no more of something. It is still correct to say "Nimogen". Although why you would ever say that is beyond me.

Ooh lecture

Yes so the background is that m'juli and i were talking about how my least favourite things are whiskers on kittens and brown paper packages tied up with string.

I like doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles. :)

brown paper packages are cool too. lol

Your new picture is so pretty! :)

---- Original Message ----

thank you! you are the first person that got the joke with the whiskers on kittens and brown paper packages tied up with string. hah i just wrote sting. i now have a mental image of Sting with brown paper packages tied to him.

---- Original Message ----

haha! I got that joke the first time I read it...but I never responded until now. hehe.

I hope the brown paper packages are in all the right places... >) and...do you mean, Sting, Sting...or someone I don't know named Sting? if you do mean THE Sting...i guess my question is: How is it that you're just casually writing to Sting??

---- Original Message ----

no not american wrote sting as in wrote to sting i meant i was writying string and I wrote sting instead. yes. and i did mean THE Sting.

---- Original Message ----

Wow! I'm thick! i didn't get it AT ALL the first time. but I re-read it, and i got it now. lol. now *I* have a mental image of Brown Paper packages tied up with STING! lol...

---- Original Message ----

hahaha i just read what i sent to you and it has sting in so many times. this is so confusing.

---- Original Message ----

tell me about it! lol but I think it would've been fine, if I had just understood what you said the first time :) lol

hey does anyone know where i can get a pair of brown hotpants?

uni sucks. but jen and i are going to the absolut ice bar on saturday! apparently they're giving us a pair of mittens when we go in and the drinks are served in shot glasses made of ice! mittens! ice! mittice! as i like to call them.

don't worry... it's all taken care of...

Tue, 09 Jan 2007 15:17:13 GMT

hellooo! thought i'd give you some amusing updates apres new year's eve:

Will, abi, laura and i had a tidying up party. highlights include me spraying the carpet cleaning foam like i was spunking all over the house. well i thought it was funny.
new year's day will and i went to the takeaway to pick up some chinese and the lady in there started questioning me. apparently she lives down the road. she broke the ice with "so... did you all just strip off then?" after explaining the bikinis and body paint she mentioned how glad she was her children weren't there. shut up.

so the only casualty from the party was the rug, which paid the ultimate sacrifice for the carpet in the back room. parents happy until same chinese takeaway lady decides to announce to my dad that we were RUNNING DOWN THE STREET IN OUR BRAS AND KNICKERS. i don't remember seeing knickers. what a LIE! how rude of her! anyway mother found it hilarious and no one really cares, but tonight will be the first time i've seen them since the 30th so who knows...

just spent the week away at induction camp and at will's. we are so rock and roll - on saturday night we went to ikea. we went to buy a sheepskin rug, i found a giant pile of them and dived on top and then crawled into the middle while will yelled "deeper! climb in further!". then got covered in sheep fur. sunday went to see the boys at initial officer training, they just moved into term two. they seem morose enough. it'll be me soon, i'm looking at a september entry. please send me cookies. in september, not now. i went in the king air simulator yesterday - well i got to watch will and penis operate it. if i bat my eyelids at the boss and will flies good one day he'll fly me around! that's a little bit cool.

diagnosis murder is about a mime. why does anyone care about the death of a mime?

But i have work to do!

dood oo doo. singing. yes so going away this weekend has clamed me down lots, although i had crazy dreams. went to someone's wings party at Linton(it's when they finish the first stage of their training and get to call themselves pilots properly). had an awesome time as i saw quite a few of the guys i haven't seen for ages. highlights include being shut outside while having a sneaky fag and colin yelling "NOT a good lad!" at the window, and only being let in once jamie showed his wings at the window, the guys will held with at st. mawgan sellotaping three hamlets together because jamie said one wasn't fat enough, and then laughin at will's face when he smoked it cos he hates cigars, the band who were awesome and dancing(they were all wearing explorer outfits avec hats), going to rochey's room and composing the roche song on a flat guitar, i have no idea how to play the guitar, it was amusing. disowning will as he climbed into a truck and did a dance, while some scottish guy yelled how bizarre it was that will had a "bird", oh yes and being introduced to people as "hi guys. this is liz, the bird". nice. and finally taking will to bed because he suddenly got very cute and sad and asked if we could go home now please because he didn't like the truck anymore.

terrifying car drive back the next day as in the afternoon will didn't remember doing most of it. went for lunch with jamie and will and gave jamie the liz herbert poetry anthology, yes it did include most of the poems from the thirds anthology, i'm THAT COOL. on sunday we were absolutely disgusting, only venturing out for kfc and pizza and ice cream. my body is angry with me. and lo, i shall not see him till we come back from skiing. sadface. still. lots of work at uni to look forward to...

okay...

Wed, 29 Nov 2006 10:23:08 GMT

here is an assortment of pictures from monday night in an attempt to show you what my hair looks like. they aint too good pictures, so you have to kind of imagine that sometimes i look hot?

embarrasingly i'm at a first year's birthday party... does that make me not cool? ooh best hair shot EVER

Tue, 28 Nov 2006 13:41:51 GMT

i just found this picture of the bf. he's the blond one. this stupid guy at uni was meant to come in and teach me how to use my experiment and he's not here. so i can't do my experiment cos i'm not even sure what to do, argh time is running out. cheese and wine night on thurs, and ahaha, i have my new number 1 uniform. yeah. with a stripe. played in a hockey tournament on sat with joe johnson's sister and victoria earl, i was shit but i pushed over the earl. sorry earl. at least we beat cambridge.

Mon, 20 Nov 2006 10:35:19 GMT

i left my camera at home, whoops. don't worry, i aint bald. i got pissed on tuesday and thought it would be funny to go to the hairdressers and make them do a slanted bob. remember when i was 12 and i did this and i looked like a horrendous mushroom? i did it again, when will i learn? but it's okay coz it looks better methinks.

i'm so tired all the time! but i think this is because i keep forgetting to eat vegetables.

but pizza has all four food groups...

Wed, 15 Nov 2006 10:13:53 GMT

Scroll down till you find RAFVR University Air Squadrons and look for my name. Yeah baby.

Just did my lesson, it went okay. I just wished they'd tell me if I got on the course or not! Stupid lecturers.

Okay kids

Wed, 18 Oct 2006 09:29:12 GMT

what factors do you think will affect stopping distances? yeah that's pretty much the whole of my mock lesson I'm teaching today. In order to get onto one of my courses I have to teach a panel of four adults, one from Physics, one from Maths, an Outreach Officer and the Head of Physics from a Sixth Form college down the road. Apparently they pretend to be children and whisper and pass notes and things.

I'm bricking it. This is scarier than trying to join the Air Force, although that didn't seem that scary at the time because I didn't really understand what I was doing, ie signing my life away. I don't want to be a failed teacher!

I HAVE TO BE MRS. KYROU! and lo, they shall call me Crazy Lady behind my back. Ha, one of the second years just papercut another one's lip. ouch.

Sat, 14 Oct 2006 10:09:22 GMT

uni is more difficult than i anticipated, in fact there's lots and lots of things to do. mostly organising people, and also with the squadron. anyone that knows me knows i'm not very good at calming myself down when i get a bit too panicky. however i have managed to hide this from my housemates, so i think they think i'm normal.

hooray!

facebook is eating my life.

Special K update

Thu, 12 Oct 2006 09:36:41 GMT

okay so i failed miserably:

on monday i did my two bowls and a balanced meal(half a pizza is a blanced meal, right?) but then fell ill (thanks, boyfriend) so i decided to go to the union... and drank so much vodka and snakebite, so much so that when i got back to the house jen and i ate a huuuuge dominoes pizza. yes.

then tuesday i was still ill, so i huddled on the sofa with a hot water bottle and dominique! who visited and ate soup, and yesterday still sick so went to the pub and ate chilli and cheese and chips. it was a "only foods that start with ch" diet.

in conclusion i am rubbish at the special k challenge, i couldn't even manage one day. I think i might just do what will recommends, which is "actually get off your arse and do some exercise and then you can eat as much shit as you want." Pfft. Just cos he's older than me he thinks he knows everything.
