The epithatree told me so

Coming up on 6 months since I have arrived in England, and also summer break. So what has been happening in the past month and a bit? Not too much really. Plodding along with work, various nights out in STA, my continuing application to the British TA, and two trips into London. The first into Brixton, the second to central London where I was drinking on a boat, never a good idea. Ended up walking back from Temple to Kentish town to catch the train home, did not get to bed until noon the next day. In a word, rough, adding 2 more, but fun. I have also managed to lose 2 pairs of sunglasses. Really got to stop taking them when im gong drinking. Well, that or wait until dark before drinking.

Transformers 2. I liked it. They brought back the humour that was present in the G1 series, although at times they took it a bit too far. Plus, Jetfire as a geriatric old man? Awesome! The matrix of leadership was well done too, particularly as it was never mentioned in the trailers so a vital plot point wasn't ruined (ahem - Terminator: Salvation nudge nudge - ahem). The Fallen was a good way to keep the franchise fresh. They even set up for another sequel, not sure how far they can push it though. Although what the hell are kids wearing these days? I cant tell the males from the females anymore, and those silly ass hats! If that is what it takes to be cool, I am proud to be uncool, at least I don't look like a twat.

So 6 months. I have had good times, met a lot of people, seen a lot of things, been many places. And you know what, a lot of it, I really cant remember. So yeah, no prizes for guessing what the Epithatree told me then.
