Anger, Excitement, Tiredness, Sleep.

A rollercoaster of emotions rising and falling this week. I won't go into all the details but here we go:

So, the Drama Society Armistice Performance was postponed, potentially cancelled. A huge kick in the teeth for all of us, the Student Union decided at the 11th hour that the Risk Assessments we had filled out weren't good enough and handed in too late. Even though we had taken the steps to make sure they were handed in on time, the receiver of the forms was not around at the time stated and this obviously caused problems. It's not like we hadn't had them previously either - the SU decided to pass new regulations on the handling of Risk assessments forms and the like and not bothered to tell us. As a result, we went about our business like we had done for the last three years and up until the aforemenioned moment had no idea we could not continue in the same manner. To add insult to injury, the meeting to sort all the shit out was scheduled for Wednesday at 2pm - the same time the Drama Society meet. Somebody somewhere has a real grudge against us it seems, so we are planning to nip this in the bud and get it all resolved. We staged a flashmob on Frenchay as well to mark Remembrance Day and stopped the whole corridor in the process. That was very special.

In other news, this time more music related, Black Sabbath are back. Messrs Obsourne, Iommi, Butler and Ward announced their reformation, their first studio album together for 33 years and a headlining performance at Download Festival. Coupled with the news the previous day that Metallica are playing the same festival AND playing their eponymous self-titled album in its entirity, this is big news. And I am THERE. I am not missing the band who invented the music genre I love for the world. By hook or by crook I will be standing on the hallowed turf of Castle Donington this summer to watch them. I have so far destroyed my neck several times listening to Sabbath's catalogue, and thus am looking to purchase a neck brace for the weeks after the festival. I will also look to attend Sonisphere as well.

The next morning, I was up at 5:45am again for more filming for 'Flying Blind'. Again a very enjoyable experience, this time set in a lecture hall and I was required to walk out and back in several times. Tedious, but worth the experience. Then a friend's party in the evening, which was also very fun. Remembrance Sunday was yesterday, and that involved a church service including a Motorhead song, much to my delight. Today is the first of my Reading Week, so I have no lessons whatsoever. For a week. if Hannah Khan is reading this, then *blows raspberry*.

Right, I'm off for my Personal Academic Tutor meeting. Stay tuned for a special blog post this evening!
