Christmas.

Christmas is finally here and good old Moustache Margerison is coming to pick me up tomorrow to take me back to the holy Burnham. The first semister here in Portsmouth has been good, I've settled in quite well.

This Christmas i'm starting a photography project which will last 3-5 years, Its a simple documentry on me and my friends and noticably our faces. It will be a general view on how we grow up and change over the course of the time noted. Each person pictured will be done individually in their own comfort space, I really want to get some good pictures here.

Last thursday here in Portsmouth for this year, going to scandles later with Nathan and Jacob, I have 4 K cans in the fridge waiting for me to drink. God bless.

I'm extremley excited to go home, It will be great to see everyone together again which in turn made me homesick when i moved to Portsmouth. Friday will be a highlight, i get to see As Tall As Lions with Paul, Tris, Robin and Jenny. I aim to be very unhuman and be a weirdo to everyone at the party afterwards.

Heres some pictures.

Home Sick

Its a weird feeling i get from day to day but then i realise its only day 12 of being in Portsmouth.

Oh fuck it. I miss my friends dearly.

Money.

Hi Student loans.

My maintenance bill is £1191.60 and you gave me £1176, So now i want you to tell me how i survive with -15 pounds? Fuck you.

Two days of University.

So I'm now into my second day at Portsmouth University and i feel quite settled in already!. The people in my halls are all sweet people, all willing to talk, be horrendi and love life which is exactly what i was hoping for.

The first day went really well, got into my room about 11 o'clock and my parents unpacked everything whilst me and my brother looked on, okok i did set up my PC though ;). by 4o'clock my parents had left me and there i was in my room with some of my neighbours drinking the K can and beating Stuart at Fifa (Undefeated).

That night Ms Rosy Davis and Ben Thorty were having a house warming party, so a group of us went there with K can in hand (only me...) and there were alot of people loving life. After my fifth K can i decided it would be a good idea to get on top of the neighbours shed, Whilst on top i also unleashed my genitalia.

For the next 30 minutes i think me and ben were just swinging it fast and loose trapping our nails inbetween our legs.

Went back to the halls, got a Ali's Kebab and died in my bed.

I woke up at 5am in desperate need of a drink, my glass was empty so in the state i was in....i Picked up the K can and took a sip, i was SO close to being sick it was unreal. Yenius.

Today i went into gunwarf and met Tasha with her friends from langstone Halls, they were decent people which is licious. from there i went to Albert road and met up with Jenn, Drank a K can or two and smiled.

Tonight we're all off to liquid and i want to be pathetic and drunk once more.

University

Most people have left for University now and with me leaving a week later than most people i feel like I'm one of the last people left in Burnham and its only been 12 hours or so since i saw Rorie.

I've been thinking to myself that i should really set myself some good targets this year at University, I dont want to be one of those people who struggle to just get 40% in their first year because that all you need to pass. No, i want to get top marks in the first year and i'm going to make sure i keep it at that level until i finish University.

Other aims are to Obviously improve my Photography skills as much as i possibly can, To do that I'm gonna have to start shooting alot more. I've got the potential there to become someone and I'm gonna put all the effort i can into making it happen.

One reason I'm especially excited moving to Portsmouth is the University Football team, its on the top of my priorities to get into one of the top teams and like Photography I'm gonna put everything i can into it. What goes along with Football is fitness and with that (I know I've said it about twice before to people, Especially Kingham) is that i am going to get into shape. Come Christmas i'll be in better shape, Not like some people coming back from University i can tell you that now.

Right, I'm off to bed now as i've been to Wales and back shooting a great band called Bayonets!. Pictures will be about within the next 2/3 days!.

Sleep well.

The night where once again, Everyone says goodbye.

So here it is, The night at Revs on a Wednesday student night where you say goodbye to everyone going back to University.

And what a night it was.

My night started out at my house with Rorie, Daniel Durant, Lewis "Basically" corcoran, Jon BEYYY and Chimon joining us only for the drinking at my house. Me and Rorie were on a 5 K minimum before we got into Revs which was very delicious. After an hour or so we decided to leave my house and go to Seymours house, on the way we saw Nana and we cheered her on like we've never cheered before.

So once it had hit 9 o'clock we ventured to Revs and theres a rumour going around that there was a bit of a que?. Fuck sake, its twenty past nine and there is a que literally down to sainsburys. So after waiting for about an hour i got in and i had to literally run to the toilet, I dont think i've ever had to hold in a wee so much in my life.

Revs - My mind is a blank apart from refusing to buy Orlanda a drink and then buying myself two pints of Stella's finest right after that in front of her. Gutted Orlanda. I think i then danced like Mr Bean for some of the night and laughed alot. I apologise to anyone if i did anything naughty, I wasn't a human being for about 3/4 hours.

Now, This is when i start telling you something which made me stop walking half way home this morning because i had to laugh. This my friends is another Rorie Classic :'(.

To get home Ed keohane drove us (Thanks mate, I think i was too dead to even murmer a thank you at that point) back to burnham and dropped us off outside Chimons house as we wanted to see if he still had some of Nana's finest for us to taste, But unfortunatly Chimon wasnt waking up. so bearing in mind Chimons dad is a police officer and his house is....next to a police station Rorie thinks that the best plan of action is to go into chimons house and retrieve Nana's finest himself. Rorie climbed onto the top of a part of the neighbours house i think it was and jumped into chimons garden and simply went through his back door. Incredible.

2 Minutes later Rorie comes out of Chimons house with the finesse and we go back to his house.

Now what i must stress here is the fact that when walking back to Rories i dont think any of us made a comment on what just happened, like it was something you do on a normal day.

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed reading this! Main reason i'm writing this blog is because i don't want to forget the amazing adventures that i end up going on.

If you have any funny stories of what happened in Revs please tell me and I'll add it to this Blog.

Update

Well i haven't been on here since New Zealand which seems so long ago.
What's been happening since? well i've been doing alot of photos as usual
and im happy with the progress that i've achieved but i need to get my
hands on a lighting set up.

I've also changed my course at Portsmouth Uni to Photography which was a
no brainer for me, stupid for me to choose a different course in the first
place anyway. but its cool now, im all sorted and portsmouth will be my new
home for the next 3 years.

I'm off to flicks house for a party tonight, the last time she had a party
it was new years and i had such a good night. paul's comming along tonight
which im so excited for, we always cause a stir.

Heres some images from recent times.

Thank you

Jack!
