It's gotten oh so cold.

It's BALTIC. I know it's November, but could you at least have warned us? It's November. AHHHHH! One and a bit months until Christmas! More worryingly, it's only a month more after that, possibly less, until my exams. And what's even worse is that I can't do Mechanics. Mechanics being a reasonably important part of my A2 Level Maths course. Bad times.

Phone's broke too. Must be the cold, that, or I've just got more than enough out of it. It was of course a faithful servant to me and my father, so much so that I've rubbed most of the buttons off in my extreme amount of texts. Over 10000 since I got it I reckon. It was properly brilliant though. Always seemed to have reception when my other phones didn't, which is kind of ironic seeing as I haven't had reception on it for the best part of four days. I presume it isn't going to fix itself.

Let's forget about this cold and blustery November and think back to the brilliance that was October. Whilst being proof that the credit crunch really does exist, I had a brilliant October. Germany just doesn't get boring, the formal exceeded expectations, and Autumn Soul ran out of superlatives halfway through Friday evening.

First off, Germany. Brilliant. Met so many people there, friends that I'll not be losing any time soon. For example, he's an absolute babe, Josh Cormican. Whilst being a bit of a tool in the best way possible, he's quite the laugh, and kept me sane while keeping me insane if that makes any sense whatsoever. I would at this point talk about the new weird things I learnt about Germans, but I haven't got anything... Hopefully doing another trip with Luke and Rowan next summer, so that could be bant. Berlin and Amsterdam, may have to learn a bit of Dutch... Could be fun, always wanted to know a bit of Dutch...

Formal. I was knackered. But as the evening went on, I perked up a bit, and my energy came flowing through. Sitting in Chrissy's living room I was unfortunately quoted to have said "I could be milking the cows at the minute." I'm such a culchy. It really isn't good. But when I got to the formal, I had a brilliant time. The food wasn't necessarily anything special, but the craic was class, and watching everyone teeter about drunk was priceless. Ralph and Dave deserve mentions for being the funniest drunks of the evening. The after formal also surprised me. Wasn't up for dancing to begin with, but after a while I made Chrissy and Julie regret ever persuading me to do so. Danced the night away, wondering throughout where I got the energy from.

Then finally, Autumn Soul. I had a brilliant time there, was challenged by God, saw loads of people changed by God, and generally had the best craic ever. Autumn Soul 2009 will be fondly remembered by myself and possibly a few others as the 'Conga' year. That conga will live in my memory for the rest of my life.

Right, it's so long since I started this post, I may as well post this and start another one, so til later, God bless.
