BLOG IS SPARTA!!!!!!!

I haven't seen 300 yet, but I really want to, even if it's supposed to be a CGI sausage-fest.

This begins Day 2 of my work experience at Titan and I have to say I'm doing well. The work so far is classic Office Bitch stuff, but the environment is casual and friendly, unlimited tea, coffee, and water, the people are nice, and in my raare downtime I can read anything on the shelves; there's a lot on the shelves.

The room I wound up with at the B&B is not going to work. Breakfasts are either bland or disgusting, depending on whether you go for cereal or continental, the room is essentially a small walk-in closet that's been partially sectioned to include a bathroom, and the free internet only goes as far as the lobby. I might be able to put up with this for two weeks, but at 50 a night I chose not to. Gumtree.co.uk is a recent discovery for me, and led me to a place in Kilburn - the room itself is only a tiny bit bigger but with a desk, seperate bathroom that's much more accomodating to non-midgets, and a kitchen - that'll cost me 80 from when I move in Thursday through the rest of my time here. Sometimes, when you do the work, things happen that are good. Who knew?

Well, I'm off to the loo and then to some free reading!!!

Great Blogs! It's been a while

Just a quick note telling everyone I'm leaving in a couple of hours for London. I'm doing my work experience with Titan Publishing for a couple of weeks, then coming back to Falmouth to get a lot of course work done. I'd like to come home but that just didn't work out. School starts back up April 16th, so hopefully between now and then I'll think to put a real post up here.

Before I leave, though, I want to give a shout-out to Rory and Kate for coming out this passed week. It was wonderful seeing you and amazing seeing some of the sites you picked out. I had a lot of fun and hope you do come back some time, preferably when I don't have as much to do!

Stay safe, everyone, and I'll try to do the same.
