Sooo....Nando's. If I haven't said this before GO THERE! I know there are some in Ireland now and Cork (as it is a different state!) so you must most defo get down there! They have a loyalty card that gives you a free 1/4, 1/2 and then full chicken at certain times which is fantastic! I got my full free chicken nearly a month ago now and by god was it nommy! Free btw in case you missed that! Oh and had to share couldn't eat it on my own but the man behind the counter said lots of people do eat it on their own. They walk around in between the halves. I thought it was well funny! http://www.nandos.co.uk/index.cfm check it out! Also that weekend I got to a place called the Trocadero at Picidilly circus for some bowling with class mates (I didn't lose!). It's like a huge fun land with loads of arcade games, a laser centre and cinema. http://www.funland.co.uk/ Kinda cool if you're looking for something fun to do in London central. You also get tickets for all the games you play (like Timezone at home Rois!) and you can get a prize. Simple things....
My month also involved a tube stop party! My house mate turned 23 and wanted to celebrate as Bank so there you go! I went as Bow Road/Church and so had a big bow on my back, head and tights. There was Waterloo, Black Friars, Grange Hill, High Barnet, Hanger Lane, Baker Street, a tube map (Dick) and others.

Turnham Green was great craic. The girl had paint on her hands so she would turn-you-green when she introduced herself. I thought it was hilarious! That started at the house, then onto B@1, Soho (obvs) and to Club du Fromage which was really cool but far away. They had great cheesy (^^,) music that kept us dancing(or falling) all night! Fairly hungover the next day but managed a run without vomitting.
My month has also involved seeing potential supervisors for projects which was.....fun and studying which is even better. Imperial library floor 4, never go there! EVER! It is the loudest study area in the world. Q+2 multiplied by a gazillion during lunch time...but getting stuff done (I swear). Not the same length of time as UCC but sure we're getting through it. Sickened it's RAG week at home. Would do anything to be there now and making it as epic with Lel! Though they are coming over soon, whoop whoop!
So celeb spotting! Have been working a bit lately which generally doesn't involve celebs but last night was Elle Style Awards so was bound to see someone! Right?! Right? Yeah if the darn Central line didn't suspend just as I needed it, feckit! So I got paid for standing out the front rather then serving indoors so still got to see some people. Cheryl Cole, Emma Watson, Sophie Ellis Bexter, Blake Lively, Stephen Dwarf, Coco Rocha, Lisa Snowdon, Geri Halliwell, Helena Christensen, Thandi Newton, Eliza Doolittle, Matthew Williamson, Roisin Murphy, Karen Mille, Minni (?), ummm....can't remember any more now but there were a ton! Soem that I didn't recognise either, suppose they were TV people or something. So yeah finally I saw some famous people who were gorgeous but just like normal people on a night out really. Cheryl is tiny though so short! But really nice, same with Blake and Karen.
Other news...we are getting a new housemate soon. Next weekend or something...I have exams next week, FAIL! Work, study, sleep is my current pattern...booring! Though once exams are over then it's drink, sleep patterns, yahoo! Oh and the girls are coming mid March too and then there's Paddy's. Fair looking forward to them! Think that's enough boring news for one blog...I will try and add photos when I get home, if I can look at a computer screen (from all this study.....). Ta ta for now!
