Hi So, the first term of my first year at the University of York is now nearly 5 weeks in, and I'm doing just fine. I'm writing at the moment to take my mind off the fact that I have been given work which I really can't do, which is ever so depressing. I'm enjoying my stay in University accommodation. I have to say the rooms provided by the University of York are absolutely superb - the house isn't falling to pieces like you might expect. There are definitely no huge cracks in the walls and the fridge door closes perfectly. I'm living with an ok bunch of people. They're really into indie music but they never go out so they're really boring. Its a shame because the clubs in York are really good, there's absolutely no cheese so you can dance to classic choons from B&S, Hefner and Baxendale* et al, all night. Large. Nearby to me in house L is house O, who are all a really sad bunch of shites, who are constantly listening to S Club Juniors in their kitchen. I keep getting dragged over there, I think because one of the blokes fancies me. I went with them to the club night thing put on by the indie society (as mentioned by asm just a minute ago) the other day. There we bumped into the rest of the York Sinister Massive (ohmigod), including Sam/asm, feather boa, and TheBoyOnceKnownAsMummyI'veGrazedMyKnee, (all of whom I've bumped into in London on previous occasions), amongst others who I vaguely remember the names of but don't want to put myself on the spot by trying to name check them now. We sat and drank some fruit juices, and I gave up smoking. There was even some dancing, but nothing too crazy. TBOKAMIGMK appears to be in crutches so he wasn't really making a go of the dancing at all. After several fruit juices we were all feeling a little silly but kept ourselves under control. I certainly didn't hit any girls, not even for fun. Later on there was rampant shagging. 'Ave it! Love James * Baxendale are really good. P.S. So are the White Stripes. P.P.S. I'm 5'2'' and blonde, and there's a pig flying around inside the computer room. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
