Chapter 8

Well, hello again. I've no idea what to make this post about. I guess the reason why I suddenly felt like posting was because I've nothing else to do on the internet what with both Reddit and Wikipedia being down, protesting against SOPA/PIPA (I don't really understand either of these bills but apparently they're bad).

I've been reading on my Kindle a lot. I think I mentioned Sherlock Holmes before but since then I've read 1984 by George Orwell (very good book), The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo trilogy, the Millenium Series, by Steig Larsson (good books, fell in love with Salander), World War Z by Max Brooks (good, interested in how they'll make it into a film) and now I've started The Hunger Games trilogy by Suzanne Collins (The Hunger Games was good, very Battle Royale). I was also excited to learn that Battle Royale is actually a book and not just only a film. So, yeah, reading has been taking up a lot of my time. Aren't I just the epitome of excitement?

Oooh, good news, I'm going to Canada! Calgary to be precise. I sent off my working holiday visa application pack last week so I'm just waiting to hear back from them and then hopefully I'll be able to set a date. I'm aiming for the end of February.

Still working loads of hours in the pub.

Christmas and New Years were uneventful enough. Drinking, eating and working pretty much sums it up.

Right, my laptop battery is about to die and I'm too lazy to run upstairs to grab my charger.

Have some of this:
