Review of the year 2003

Although the year was significantly better than the one before, it was hardly one I�d choose to remember particularily in the later months. This is very brief.

January Struggling to remember much of what happened this month. I think my New Years Resolution was probably to stop drinking. Had exams, all of which I did fairly well in. The house I was living in at Uni decided to hate us. Still not entirely unconvinced it wasn�t the ghost of my Landlords mum causing all the problems as revenge for me and Sean slagging off our Landlord. The kitchen flooded daily, the electrics fused hourly and the hot water never worked. Wooo!

February This month saw me making valentines cards in lectures to make me less bored. A hell of a lot of them. I think I made about 9 in the end, big buggers as well, the kind you�d see made on Blue Peter. Two of which got sent to Wigan�heh. Geoff proposed to Viki. Went to Nottingham for VG�s birthday, Geoff & Viki popped round to say happy birthday to VG�I just �hid� in the hallway, camouflaged as a caterpillar in my sleeping bag so they wouldn�t find me. Was in some dodgy club with a balloon tied to my arse�met Tom�pulled Alan?! Lost a camera :(

March Met Mark in Roper Hall on St Patricks night. Bought my Glastonbury ticket on the 31st. Wooo!

April Saw The �Burn ins our union. I dragged a stray cat home one night whilst pissed with Mark. The bloody thing now lives with us.

May Saw the bank robbers. Finished second year of uni on the Friday and then went to a wedding on Saturday in Leicester�met Neil, some random who I got to crash the wedding (Busted style). My brother managed to smash a glass on the poor blokes hand and we couldn�t get it to stop bleeding. Smuggled the guy into the hotel we were stopping at. Very random.

June Failed my first driving test. Dunno what happened between me and Mark really... Saw The `Burn at King Georges Hall. Pulled Neil, the married 26 year old with three kids, Matt's best mate. Went to watch The Coral at Keele uni. Ended up wrecking my new trainers by playing pissed football in the rain and then we went wading through a river we didn�t realise was there in some woods. Went to Glastonbury!!!

July Went to Nottingham to erm meet some people. Got chucked out of the Wetherspoons :D Went to watch Easyworld in Manchester. Went on holiday to Greece, did the most retarded thing ever and went back to some guys apartment in my really really pissed state woke up the next day and didn�t have a clue how to get back to where I was staying. Not very pleasant. Went skinny dipping in the sea and had my 20th birthday. Ran up the biggest mobile phone bill to date.

August Pulled Ste. Went to Leeds festival and went bin rolling! Met a random guy at the train station with Mark who kindly gave me lots of free Stella. Made Emma�s front lawn die and go brown by suggesting putting fairy washing up liquid on it and sliding down it on bin bags. Was fun though. Pale Ale! I�m sure I had another driving test I failed but I can�t remember. Heather has her baby. I try to start House Olympics 2003 and The Bedroom Band

September Did the Ewood pubcrawl with Sarah. Nicked absolutely everything you could imagine worth nicking on a pubcrawl, including a police roadcone�yes we are students. Finished up at my local where everything we got nicked got claimed by someone in the pub. Yes we really did nick stuff that good! Went to watch Ocean Colour Scene at Rock City in Nottingham. Started third year of uni. Got Glandular Fever! Pulled scary Tim and gave him GF. Went to watch the snooker at the Guild Hall!

October Got a car, passed my driving test. Got accused of Clanking . Glandular Fever returned. Went to Liverpool to watch The Front at the Cavern on Matthew Street. Got incredibly bored. One of the people we were with got beat up and another got left behind. Went out in Preston for Laura�s 21st. Went to the Christening on Heathers baby, pulled Matt�we all went back to my local � followed Dan into the blokes toilets and pulled him. Lost my job.

November Started seeing Matt. Had a one night stand :/ with the fittest guy in Preston. Went to see the Cooper Temple Clause in Manchester. Ended up getting stranded on my own at Manchester Picc station at 2am�except Steven from uni somehow happened to be there and about � of the other blokes from uni I�ve fancied�got home at 4am \o/ via a bus full of raving pillheads. Glandular Fever returned. Emma�s 21st pubcrawl dressed as a lion. Went to see Radiohead at the MEN � camped outside for 3 hours got to the front though. Went to see Muse at the MEN. Got my job back.

December Went to Manchester �shopping� ended up in the pub(s) �pissed�. Saw Hell is for Heroes at the union. Heard a student/support band member get bottled outside the library.
