Good Gods... Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

Hello, it's been a while since I've been on here - I was freed by not having my own internet connection for a year (my housemates in my second year of uni decided our house should bear a strong resemblance to an Amish abode).

Apparently Asher ratted out my livejournal username (which shouldn't be that hard to guess ) - hi Slowwhand and Striker

The oddest thing was going to the national NUS LGBT conference and meeting Starchild.

We talked about civ

Anyhow, more about me (seeing as I'm of such supreme importance)

- I graduated my English and History degree and start a masters in Gender and Culture next month. I hope to go on to do a phD and become an English lecturer.

- I'm heavily involved in uni politics, I've been president of the LGBT society this past year and am Gay and Bisexual Men's officer on the student executive this coming year.

- I'm on the dole and I couldn't find a summer job. I do start work for Oxfam next week though on a voluntary basis (might as well be doing something).

- I'm still playing civ3.

- I'm kind-of-single-kind-of-not...

- I've been travelling a lot, Amsterdam for my 21st (a couple of weeks ago), Morrocco a couple of months ago, and have visited a friend of mine in Barcelona 4 times this year.

Anyways, what's new at Apolyton?

ah that must be why the rugby clubs used to(still do?) make it a feature of their night on the town - student bashing. Not that i ever took part, i was too anglisized by that time.

bingo! of course

I should add i'm not suggesting gay bashing is cool. Or student bashing either. It's just something that used to happen in swansea on those cold wet weekends in town.

welcome back red_jon so are you english or what?

in swansea i'd say it's about 50/50.

i think student bashing is pretty rare these days, i guess the locals have come to realise that without the students swansea would be a much less interesting place. the welsh girls were certainly very accommodating, although i doubt redjon saw too much of that

Excellent plan! It's always best to avoid "dead time" on your CV. I've just had an interview when the people regarded the time between my year in France and my first job as dead time. I was at university for my final year you morons! If only you'd bothered to ask.
