And this means that I am a pro at revising just the sufficient amount to ensure that I get the percentage in exams I need to get what I want...
This hasn't, however, seemed to be the case in my first two years of uni... having 4 resits each year, I feel that I have perfected my technique however for my coming exam on saturday... that is correct, I have a saturday exam at 9.30am!! My uni BLOWS!!!
And so here I am now, unable to sleep and doing a little late night revision, memorising the things which will ensure I score a solid 60% in this God foresaken exam and see me take another step closer to the realms of a 2:1 degree result!!!
Watched alot of films recently... were so many I never got round to seeing last year!! Can't believe I never saw Jennifer's Body in the cinema, that film was PENGGGG!!! And Paranormal Activity wasn't too shabby!! Got me and my lovely lady on edge watchin that at 3am!! Don't think I'm ever gonna be able to look at my spare room the same again late at night!!! hahaha.
Slowly making progress with my new years resolution/goal of breaking the 20,000G mark. Finally got round to playing Mass Effect, which is a bosting game but... the combat engine in it sucks and realllyyyyy grinds on me!! I got irritated real bad tonight and just had to turn my xbox off before I destroyed my controller!! I also recently encountered the glitch in FIFA10 where you sign for a new club only to find that they have a club buget of NEGATIVE €2billion... which sucked... HARD!!! I do fear that my gaming time is gonna be HEAVILY limited this uni term though sadly! =[!! Got a CRAP amount of coursework to do, including my 10,000word dissertation and as well as at least 4 group courseworks which are the bane of my existence!!! Its the first time I've actually felt stressed for agesssssss!!!
But I've got the love of my life to help me through it and a lovely holiday in Florida awaiting me after my final exams are dead and buried in May... Which can't come soon enough!! Feels like my skin hasn't seen the sun in farrrrrrr toooooo long!!!!
To wrap this up... I shall be getting my new tattoo sketched up at Modern Body Art Acome Tuesday, which is all rather exciting and can't wait for some fresh ink!! Gonna be KILLAAAAA!!!!
PEACE!!

For some reason last year... I didnt't listened to all that much Pop-Punk, and I have no idea why!! My library playlists seem to have been taken over by Screamo/Post-Hardcore/Whatever-You-Wanna-Call-Em bands. I have no complaints at all though, 2009 has had one hell of a soundtrack and if 2010 has half the soundtrack 2009 did... its gonna be another buzzing year!!!
Honorable Mentions of 2009
Freshman 15 - Throw Up Your Hands For One Night Stands
UVERworld - AwakEVE
Polar Bear Club - Chasing
The Used - Artwork
Most Disappointing Albums of 2009
Brand New - Daisy
Taking Back Sunday - New Again
At the start of 2009 I physically couldn't wait for these albums... and when they came I died a little inside. I really have no idea why everyone was raving about Brand New's album so much... I don't get the hype and think that people have been saying its awesome to save face! haha.

1. Conditions - You Are Forgotten
2. City Escape - Avalanches
3. Lets Get It - Digital Spaces
4. Life On Repeat - As I Grew EP
5. Misadelphia - The City, The Circus
6. The Bride - The Divinity Devoured
7. Take Cover - The Last Word
8. VersaEmerge - VersaEmerge EP
9. The Rocket Summer - You Gotta Believe EP
10. Hit The Lights - Coast To Coast EP
11. NeverShoutNever! - Me & My Uke
12. We Are Machines - Dream. Hope. Believe.
13. XO - Some Day
14. The Word Alive - Empire
15. Belle Epoque - Wicked Ones & Thieves
As I mentioned earlier, my top album list didn't really consist of much pop-punk... and I would say that I got my fix last year through EPs and Mini-Albums!! Was sooooo many good EPs last year... And nothing beats short and sweet!!!
Favourite Moments in Manga of 2009
Favourite Bleach Moment has to be when Ichigo Perfect Hollowfication after Ulquiorra punched a hole through him!! Easily one of my fave fights in manga!!
.
Favourite Naruto moment of the year is simply gonna be when Naruto breaks out of Pain's Chibaku Tensei with 8 tails!!
Favourite moment in One Piece this year is probably... well I actually have no idea. One Piece has been immense this year... literally non-stop attempt to try and save Ace... Can't wait for more this year!!
Finally, this...
Here's to another glorious year, just like 2009, which was quite easily the best ever!!!
