Okay, so I'm not feeling very creative with my blog titles at the moment. It's alright. I'm sure I'll get better at it again, just need to get into the swing of things, et cetera.

Today was pretty boring. All I did really was manage to max out my level on Fallout 3 - hello gamerscore abundance! I also taught Abbi to play Left4Dead online, which is quite hilarious, although unfortunate - some complete wanker on the her team decided it would be funny to start killing his own team mates, and the other team locked themselves in the safe room and didn't move for about twenty minutes. It's frustrating when people don't play the game properly but what can you do? You can't control them, so it's best to just leave and find a new lobby with people are aren't massive idiots.

After this we made dinner - home made chicken kievs! Basically we made the garlic thing inside using cream, parsley and garlic, cut the chicken breasts open and shoved it in, covered in flour and then egg and then sprinkled lots of breadcrumbs on top. It worked very well, I was actually quite surprised because it tasted like a chicken kiev should taste. Success!

We also watched a film, I can't quite remember the name of it, but Kate Winslet was in it and she was a lesbian with this weird girl and they both made up this fantasy world and wanted to be together forever, except the weird girl's mum tried to break them apart and wouldn't let her get a passport so they could swan off and be together so they killed her with a brick in a pair of tights and left her in the woods.

Very, very odd.

I don't really have anything else to add. 

The one where I got bored and started a new blog

I think it's all in the title really.

I did have a blog on here, but after reading through it I realized that I was a typically boring, angsty adolescent and the best thing I could do for this world was to delete the utter drawl that was my life back then. I'm much happier now, but isn't everyone an angsty teenager?

I can say the word teenager as though I'm not one anymore, even though I'm still nineteen. But this is justified, because I will be twenty in nine days. Nine! This isn't long at all. I'm quite excited, as it means I can go home and see my family and (some of) my friends for the weekend. I haven't seen my family in more than a month now, which makes me quite sad to think about it, especially my mum (and James' mum as well really, because she's like a second mum to me now).

Being away from everyone at university can be quite hard but I think having unlimited texts on my phone and internet in my new house makes it so much easier to keep in contact with people. And, of course, living with people you actually talk to on a daily basis and get along with is always helpful to a productive and friendly living atmosphere. Suffice to say it is a lot better than last year.

Anyway. I guess I should do an 'about me' kind of thing. My name is Becky. I'm nineteen (almost twenty, as I stated) and I'm studying Creative Writing at Winchester University. My lecturers are constantly drumming the fact into us that most employers these days expect you to have a blog and twitter and god knows whatever else and we're cyber-stalked, so if anyone that wants to hire me is reading this, hello prospective employer! I do hope you enjoy my writing/ranting.

I have a lovely family and group of friends. I also have a boyfriend, James, who I've been with for over a year and a half.

He's pretty neat. At home I have two cats called Boots and Smudge, at Uni we have five quails called Colin, Quirrel, Quentin, Queenie and Hobnob. To be honest I'm not an huge lover of animals and pets, but once they're there I don't really mind them at all. They are quite nice having around.

My main hobby is, obviously, writing. I do it all the time. But apart from writing, I also love reading - I'll read anything. My all-time favourite is Harry Potter - what else? Sometimes I get a lot of criticism about this but honestly, it's all personal opinion, and personally I absolutely love Harry Potter because it was, in a sense, my childhood. I remember standing in the queue at midnight to get the last book then crying the whole way through it, and I remember seeing every film at the first viewing the cinema had. So yeah, I'm very big on Harry Potter. But I like a lot of other things too, it's just my memory is a bit of a sieve so I struggle to remember everything that I love.

Apart from the obvious hobbies, I love gaming. Games are something that was also a huge part of my childhood - the first console we had was a Sega Mega Drive when I was very young. The best times I remember when I was younger was watching my dad play Gex Gecko and Jersey Devil on Playstation 1 and wishing I was good enough that I didn't get screwed over by the enemies every time I played. Maybe it was because I had two brothers and my dad growing up to influence me to play games, otherwise I'd have been left out and joining in games was preferable to being by myself. At the moment my console of choice is my beloved XBox360 Elite, I got it two Christmases ago and it's my baby. I'm currently waiting on my birthday to get Gear of War 3 from my boyfriend, money for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 from my parents, and hopefully enough money to buy Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim when it comes out.

Apart from those I do other stuff like most young adults my age. I like to go out for a drink, I eat absolute crap sometimes, I watch a shit-load of films, go to lectures, do some work, listen to music, all that jazz.

I can't honestly say when I'll be posting in here again; I mean, I'd love to keep on track with it and make it comprehensible and entertaining and witty but like I said, I'm so forgetful. I may just forget about this blog's existence in a few days and find it again when the internet has bored me and I have nothing else to do except look back through all of my things.

Anyway. Yeah. Goodbye.
