Just read through the below near year old blog from last summer, I guess it pretty much summarises what it's like to be on vacation doing fuck all, as aopposed to being somewhere sunny with a cocktail in hand.

This time I'll be staying in sunny Newcastle working off that massive £2 large debt I built up over the past year, pretty much just through nights out and dinner dates. Was it worth it? Absolutely.
At the moment I'm bang in the middle of exams and should be studying for tomorrows math exam, but i can't really seem to bring myself to do anything about it.

So what's changed in the past year?
Quite a significant amount. I'm a lot happier living independently in a culture that dosn't raise an eyebrow when you walk over a pedestrian crossing on a red light. Also the area I live in is home to the origins of my family, so you could say I'm finally closer to home after living non stop in the epitamy of Germany, filled with by comparison, over-critical and pessimistic German people.
Yes, brit students are a fine bunch. They go on 7 day drinking benders, go on bar crawls dressed in crazy outfits, slop around in any old shitty attire during the day and are iPod junkies, never doing any work, smoking rollies and eating pot noodles.
In fact, that sentence pretty much describes my lifestyle right now, minus the smoking rollies bit (I buy proper tabs).

Okay, well I'm gonna hit the shower.
