BBQ + Sun + Beer + Friends = Perfect end to a great year :)

!

The second year of university life and its energy-sapping routine has indeed reached a climatic end! My final exam finished at 11.30am today, giving myself and a few friends an hour or so to forge a plan to storm a near-by a cliff-top for a good ol' BBQ in the name of celebration!

So, one trip to Tesco + £68 on Chris's card later, the coals were ignited! It was a perfectly sunny day, which caused concern for myself who's used to BBQ's dowsed in rain ("The Bringer of Noah!"). But still, it kicked arse! Kudus to Alex and Neal: the master culinary duo. A general 'thanks' to everyone who shown up :) And 3 cheers to Chris's marvellous plan to cool the beer! (and I was but a naysayer! I'm not worthy!). *hip hip hip yo!*x3

Overall I had a great time! Bar falling down a minor trench and into a nest of thorny shrubbery..and being caught with my pants down by some women who *were* enjoying a pleasant stroll in the summer-sunshine (literally..though I'd rather not explain this unsavoury event!) ^^,

But now I feel spent in an almost literal sense: what the f*** am I to do for 4 months?! Anyone read 'Norweigan Wood'? Well I feel like the dude from that at the end when he's trapped in the phonebox and cannot figure where he is - he's spent so much time entangled in the power-struggle that is his his love for a girl with mental issues that he's lost all concept of love and general everyday goings on..replace the asylum with uni, and some nutter of a bird with work, and, well, the result is seemingly yours truly! ><, (and probably the rest of my mates on the same course, ha!).

..I think thats a good anology. Then again, maybe my thoughts have just been warped by Matt's awesome playing of 'Norweigan Wood' on the ol' acoustic guitar?! Who knows, hah!

Out of interest, any idea why Luke had a brolly on him in the glaring sun?! It's just occurred to me how bizarre that was (even though I spent a lot of time basking beneath its shady canopy of tan-dodging joy)? And who kept screaming 'Jah-ming!'? (zack? haha).

Anyway, time to conclude! An excellent end to the year, couldn't of been better :) Will miss you mofo's ^^,
