Thursday The 14th

<<< Previous Entry: Pas Une Pute | This Month's entries | Next Entry: Prison Life Hacks >>
  • Yesterday I learnt how to make fire with sticks and string. Convieniently I also learnt how to make string from stingy nettles. I figured out how to make sticks myself.
  • Yesterday I also found out that Water Parsnip has an evil cousin; DEADLY WATER PARSNIP. Do not eat water parsnip for fear that DEADLY WATER PARSNIP will come in the night and exact revenge. That or maybe you'll get them confused.
  • Apparently a Status Quo tribute band are playing nearby soon. If they're in need, possible names that would suit them are; 'Status Que?' 'Status Quorn' 'Status Quo 2: The Return Of Status Quo'.
  • This weekend I'm probably going to the overnight Make Poverty History / Trade Justice March. Monday night I go see 65daysofstatic, Tuesday night I go see idlewild. For those who are about to get really tired, we salute you.
  • I just pre-ordered TIGER! Bring on OS X.4!

Matthew

Students these days have far too much money. Bring on top-up fees, I say.

the real Phil Brown

I misread that and thought I'd uncovered some illegal fur trading still going on. Drat, was gonna make money from it and all.

Hayles

Am now terrified of the deadly water parsnip..... and being any where nr mark whist he's making fire!

Benjamin

Matthew - the oddly-name "top-up fees" aren't paid until students are no longer students. And the governent intends to increase the student loan. So students will have more money to waste, err, I mean, spend sensibly!

Sparticus

Firstly, spending money on tiger means no more cds for me this term. Secondly, you wouldn't be scared unless I could actually make fire. FIRE!

Mr.Moony

We can use the water parsnip to extinguish all fires.

Matthew

Benjamin - no, I knew that, but just because you have more money to spend at that moment doesn't mean you'll never have to pay back that money...

I get the best of both worlds - 2005 deferred entry to 2006 means I get the old tuition fees under the new (pay nothing for three years!) system.

And Mark: no CDs for a month!! Whatever shall you do?

Benjamin

I don't pay any tution fees, full stop. Benjamin 1, Matthew 0. ;)

And just cos you have to pay more back, doesn't mean you don't have more to spend in the first place. (??)

Matthew

Did I say that? ;) You'd be either stupid or very sure of a well-paid job to do so, though :)

Why'd I have to be named after a gospel writer? Mark, I think we've found a Scripturize bug - there's no chapter 0 in the gospel of Matthew :)

Benjamin

Bah, I'm all confused now.

All I know is, I've had no money off my parents, started off uni with almost no money, and am finishing it with a four figure sum. ha.

And that link to Matthew 0 amused me :D I wonder how well that thing works - lets try 1 Corinthians 13 ... ?
