AKA An insane week in the life of Will.

Monday. As mentioned last week, I had to get up early on my day off from college to go speak to the police. Supposed to be three of us there but only two of us turned up. Slept all afternoon, quiz at SU at night.

Tuesday. No college till the afternoon. Lie in? No. Meeting with council about my tennancy. End result? I’m finally gatting moved out of my flat after new year. College in the afternoon. Found out why person missed meeting. Stayed in bed due to bad weather. Same bad weather I walked for ONE HOUR in to make the meeting. Cue not very fucking amused Will.

Wednesday. No college till afternoon. Lie in? No. I’m going on the college trip to the National Museum of Photography, Film and Television. So, there I am 9:10am (ten minutes after we were supposed to leave) freezing my nether regions off when the announcement is made. Someone forgot to book the bus! We eventually leave at 9:30. Wanted to buy a clapperboard but the didn’t have any. So I got a pen for my mum, a NMPFT keyring, a one ring keyring (just call me Frodo) and, erm, a glow in the dark bouncy eyeball.

Thursday. Lie in? No. Have to be at college for 8:30am for filming with the police. I’m directing. The filming goes well. The police could not have been more helpful if they had tried. One shot where the cameraperson may have been in danger but police say no problem and end shot is massively impressive. Editing in the afternoon. First edit over 12 minutes long. Needs to be ten minutes. Oh shit.

Friday. Lie in? You must be joking. Flash class at 9:00am. Then more editing. Get programme down to 9:58. Just got a couple more things to add. But nothing that will extend the time.

Saturday. For the first day this week, no bloody alarm clock! Yay! Will does not get out of bed til 3:00pm. Pissed about online for a bit. Went home. Cooked. Watched Robot Wars. Watched and taped Bowling for Columbine. Finished cross stitch dragon for friends housewarming pressie.

WARNING! WARNING! Will be writing serious (possibly ultra serious) entry this week. Just in mood to do so.

One final thing. Go to google.com, type in “massive failure” and click ‘I Feel Lucky’. Cheers to Ken Fitlike for pointing this out to me.

Will
