Durham University

On my never ending quest to finding the perfect uni, my next trip involved visiting Durham. After a fun night in (ahem UV rave) at my college, St. Aidens, the next day gave a chance to visit the uni campus and of course the little city of Durham. Pretty, serene and quiet, its really nice but I still reckon its Bristol for me.

Bristol University

Pretty much have decided to go to Bristol for uni. The combination of university reputation, city vibrancy and the accent make it a sure winner. I visited it last wednesday for an open day and as always I had my camera on hand.

Okay so just discovered, my dad deleted some of my pics from London and I was pretty pissed. So glad he didnt delete the ones I posted yesterday, otherwise.. But looking on the bright side, at least it gives me a reason to visit London again SOON.

This time Im thinking Embankment, Covent Garden, Tate Modern and Waterloo or anything else that gets in the way....







Admittedly these photos are pretty old, taken during the summer and I just rummaged through my memory card to find a random of collection of snaps I liked and put them on. Also I discovered if you double click on them, it links you to an enlarged version. Im very proud of my lightning pic btw, have to say, even though its not that good.

and finally thankyou to those who all joined my blog! I really do appreciate it and I hope you enjoy it :)
PEACE

I have to say as all tests go, that was the worst one to date. I dont think Oxford will be a viable option now, but I might still get an interview, with a stroke of luck. I answered 3 out of 4 questions, thats good enough I think, but ah well I ll see how things go. I never expected to get in anyway so we ll just see what comes. Im in a happy go lucky mood at the moment :)

But anyway, these are a few snaps from London taken during the summer and they are mainly experimental. Strolls in London at the heart of night, what can I say?





There should be more, but I cant find them, but I ll be sure to post them if I do :)
PEACE

Mat Oxford

I ve been ignoring this thing for months, but I ve logged on now and its getting a small post. Okay, its small and not very important, or eventful, but its something and thats what counts and...now Im fighting for words to keep going..

But now, I shall leave you, my maths books call my name. Here I come, Oxford entrance exam. You are gonna get destroyed...urrr just be nice to me tomorrow

Maybe the start of a beautiful summer

To grip and to twist what we hold in our hands
Accomplishing our dreams, with outstretched arms, arched towards the sky
Hands covering our faces in scorched sun, but ever so in warm summery breeze, straight backed, unfolded
Free to breath and break the dust from our eyes, to throw ourselves in the air
To grasp and let go

SUMMER

Mercury Summer

Why have you disappeared? where have you gone? everything from nothing and back once again, you, once, so strong in my heart, you had captured me, left me breathless; tainted me; your grasp so firm, tender; lifeless and dead, i dont even know if you're still there, what has become of you? your vile raptured love, never lay refuge in my arms again.
