So it’s been a few days since I last posted, I was a bit ill over the weekend, but fine now. I’ve noticed myself listening to Emperor a lot recently, as some of you may know, I go through cyclic phases of loving a particular band, and it seems this time it’s Emperor (for the umpteenth time).
In other news, I’ve started a new mindset of mine which aims to get me up on time every morning in time for work. Monday was a miserable failure, possibly due to the journey back from Durham on Sunday night. However, yesterday and today I’m proud to say I wasn’t late (apart from traffic reasons). I also have been keeping the state of the flat in check – washing, dishes, hoovering (thanks to Hannah) and all! I feel like I’m pulling the reigns back on my life again after it got a little out of control.
The main thing I need to concentrate on now is sorting out my money situation. As most of you know, I’m on a pretty damn good salary for a 21-year-old, but those of you who know me better know that I like to spend alot. I’ve got to budget properly, and stick to it. I’m not going to do it in MS Money, because I just can’t get to grips with that budgeting feature, I’m going to do it in OpenOffice.org Calc and just compare the figures from MS Money of my actual spending. That way I can lay it out how I want. I can (for now) hide some of my guilt from debt in the solice that everyone else has money troubles in January, but I really do need to sort money out.
Airsoft is on again tonight at UCAP, and it’ll be the first time using the TM Mk23 SOCOM I’m buying from Glenn in the tunnels. I’ll post some pictures up soon when I get around to taking some! It’s a fantastic gun, and because Glenn is awesome, he’s giving me an awesome price on it. I’ll also post some pictures of Durham when I have a chance taken by Stretch at NSC.
