Hurrah! Handed essay in! Think it was easily the most appalling thing I have ever submitted, but then it seems every time I hand something in it gets progressively worse, so much for spending five years at uni.
Now, I welcome feedback as to the lay out of the page, is it too blue? Is the text too small? People you need to help me out...
Anyway went to the gym for the first time today was quite hilarious as they seem to have taken their name to heart (space) and the place has the decor of a sci-fi flick. Also there seems to be a current (may not be so current, don't seem to keep up with gym fashion) trend where people, women especially, seem to think it is appropriate to wear tight leggings to the gym. I don't know if this is a spin off from Thorpies wondersuit (or whatever it is called) but really these people are unlikely to be elite athletes who need every muscle kept tightly in place for the duration of the workout. My thinking is; leggings went out of fashion for a reason.
While I am on this fashion topic, being quite the stylemiester myself, I recently had a hankering the other day for one of those phones, you know, the new ones that take photos. Because, right in front of me, was a sight I had to share with someone else, this girl had taken the v.short denim skirt and snow boots look to a whole new level. Excitedly I envisioned the hilarity that could be had wandering around uni taking happy snaps of unsuspecting fashion victims and sharing them with others. I soon realised however, that the creepy stalkerness, and somewhat exposure of my inability to find something useful to do with my time, might undermine any hilarity that might have ensued, so sadly the idea has been shelved.
