The Life and Times of Me

One Wednesday, I played in another cricket match, DUCC vs Scottish Crop Research Institute (or something like that). Anyhow, after one of our bowlers had taken 3 wickets in one over, the captian of SCRI said to my captain "the reat of my team are carp, put your girl on so at least they have a chance." So next over I was put on to bowl, second ball, the captain was caught behind by our wicky trying to sweep. I ended up with figures of 4 overs, 2 maidens 14 runs and 2 wickets. In the pub later I heard an interesting story, just before I had come on to bowl, our wicky had said to the batsman "Amy has really big boobs, you should see then wobble when she runs..." Not sure if the batsman was concentrating on my bowling or boobs and so couldn't say which was the reason for me getting their best batsman out.

I got sent this and thought that it would be appricated:

I played cricket. I made one not out (of 369 runs) and I took a catch (and have the bruisers to prove it!

Dundee really is the sunniest city in Scotland. I am no a much darker shade of milk bottle than I usually am.

Much of the last five days has been spent doing very little apart from reading HP 3 and 4 and eating. Although a pleasent evening was spent in the pub talking cricket and getting over excited when the lovely Mr Wallace walked into the pub (who managed to spill beer all down my new purple tshirt which had a lovely stain in the boob area the next day.

This afternoon it is University of Dundee vs Abertay... and I am playing :-)

Hey All
Blogger has changed I is confused.

Yesterday afternoon should have been spent revising for the exam I have this afternoon but it wasnt. It was spent getting sunburnt yet again while watching DUCC batter the snobs of St Andrews.

This afternoon is my last exam and so this evening I am going to be going to the Union with me mates to drink and dance.

I have no hair. For those who can remember that far back, I have a very similar hair cut to the one i had when I was six. Malcolm, my darling brother said "it suits you Amy but you do look like a lefty Lesbian Liberal! You should have your hair like that time we were in Holland (1996)." Due to the shortness and the fineness of my hair, it is curling, like a baby's does.

Did anyone watch Dispatches on Channel 4 last night? Those people were soooo unbelievable. They got right up my tits (to put it politely)!

I was counting down the hours last night, my flat mates thought I was being more crazy than usual!

FYI: the 26 April post is one long rant on several subjects which I wrote while still in halls of residence and undergoing great stress from terrible housemates!

FYI: I would have a fish farm if I was offered the chance again but as the person who first offered it to me never replys to my emails or text messages, it is even less than a pipe dream.

FYI: I don't think I am deep. I just have lots to say :-)

FYI: The secret below isn't going to be a secret for much longer with all the talk of "sharking" I am hearing (it is supposed to read: I have a secret and I have promised not to say anything :-0).

FYI: I have tried not to get onto religion in this blog because I don't want to upset people (although I am capable of being told "I am not following the right path" I am not sure how people would take it if I questioned their believes)

BTW: Harry Potter, is just like the chronicals of Narnia (which is on sale in Virgin on DVD for £20)

Wendy, I needed you last weekend, I was watching cricket and I forgot to put my suntan lotion on and I got sunburnt :-(

I have one exam this week, Geoscience and it was alright, one question about coastal erosion, one about flooding in cities and one about stable isotopes! Went to the union afterwards to get drunk and saw Lauraine Kelly who had just been inducted as our rector. Managed to kiss lots of boys (in a European Stylie)... But didn't get the snog I was after (he was both very stoned and pissed).

Eric, not long and you'll be out of Stirling. I will phone you later (as you never phoned me back!).

I managed to lose £40 this week, I will explain more fully after the 4th of June.
