Promised update

"Hann can you update your blog again, I want a personal mention not just a picture!" -Kirsten

As promised here's another quick update about what happened last week. 

Kirsten, Ryan & Me
Stephen, Eric & Ryan
It was Ryan's birthday this week so we obviously had to celebrate! Kirsten went out and got a tonne of balloons, made him a birthday sign and got him the ever popular caterpillar cake! He didn't know that any of this was being done for him and it was obviously left to me to keep him busy whilst the kitchen was set up! 

Me & Ryan
We ended up going to the club that Kirsten and I work for, because you know free entry and all. We ended up asking for the rankest shot they did which was something like 63% it was meant to have been on fire but the bartender couldn't light it! we also had something called a "Zombie" which cost a lot and it was HORRIBLE!! It was a cocktail glass of shots, it looked pretty but its looks were deceiving! But as you can see from the photos (which aren't stolen from cocoloco... *cough cough*) we had a great time! 
Jess, Catherine, Georgia, Ellie & Kirsten


This week was also my Nan's birthday which I'm sad I couldn't be there for but Happy Birthday Nan, I wish I could have been there to complete the circle of family you had around you, but from the sounds of things you had a good time! I also want to wish my Nan and Grandad Happy Anniversary!

Work wise all has been good had to do an on going practical assessment which as the name suggests is still on going we filmed last week in the media production office!! Scary Freya (my course leader) is scary! and we're editing this week so by  next week all should be done and dusted and i should have handed in my third assessment of the semester! I also handed in my Pre-production assessment this week, god I'm a glad that's done and out of the way! That was one huge document that nearly gave me a mental breakdown when I was doing it, thank god I only want to be a 1st AD (first assistant director), and will only have to deal with that stuff ALL the time, good choice Hann, good choice...

Anyway that's it for this week!
Thank you & goodbye

Halloween!!


“Some people never go crazy. What truly horrible lives they must lead.” 

― Charles Bukowski


I got to see my best friend last week for Halloween! She came up for a couple of days and got to meet my flat mates whilst they were dressed in the in some of the weirdest costumes I've ever seen. I honestly think we made her want to come to uni YAY!!
top L-R: Becky (zombie?), Ryan (Old Gregg), Me (Skeleton)
Mid L-R: Jazmin (1940's ball?), Kirsten (Vampire)
Bottom: Georgia (Spiderman) 

It was so good to see her and catch up but also so we could have a decent night out together, seen as we hadn't seen each other in over 2 months, I wasn't the happiest bunny when she had to leave, but as you can see from the photos we had a great time and everyone looked amazing!

L-R: Eric (Dead Where's Wally), Liam (Vampire?), Ryan,
Stephen (Cowboy), Georgia, Austin (1940's ball?)
It was not fun getting up for my lecture the next day! Eric and I were basically zombies for the entire lecture and the walk both there and back. Here's a tip never do Halloween if you have a 9:15 lecture the next morning you will be sorry and you will have no-one else to blame but yourself and trust me I think that's what hurts the most, the fact that its self inflicted!

So Friday after my lecture I took Becky for a small tour around Cheltenham high street where we got food and chatted then went back to my halls crashed and watched films, best afternoon ever! We also got a Nandos takeaway so that was highly appreciated, I got my free whole chicken which is a god send for a poor student that made me THREE meals!! If that isn't a pro tip i don't know what is!

Unfortunately I had to walk her to the train station the next day and was once again without her! I definitely had a great time with her as you can see from the photos, however I miss her not being like 5 mins away.

"I got a MANGINAAAAAA!!"

Thank you & goodbye
