DMUWE

Hello, you will be pleased to know that I do not ache as much now so this blog entry may be slightly more interesting and well written. I think that doing exercise whilst being sore and ache'y must make everything better, its one of those weird cures.

Yesterday I took the liberty of going up to De Montford University to have a look around the place and see what my life could potentially be like in September. Despite the 6hour round trip, and a cold wet day I was actually impressed with the area and the course. Its a very tight nit community which is a bit different compared to that of UWE. However I can't decide whether I enjoyed the place, it has good and bad points. The bad being that you step outside of the interlectual hub and outside you come into an absolute shithole. Honest to god, its like being in St Marys but 24/7, so that factor was a bit poor. The trip made me also realise that I missed quite a lot from UWE so I am going to have to make another trip up there, fail. I never actually looked at the bars, the main campus or the library. Basically where i'm going to be the whole time. Just another random negative to DMU is that the place where history was taught, did not smell like history nor was it in a old building. At UWE the building smelt and you could tell its where some people have hidden amongst the archives and hibernated.

On my trip I also had the stark realisation that 'history people' are really different people. By this I mean you could tell if someone wanted to do history at degree level. Some people were wearing shirts, brown jeans and shoes. I hope I don't look like one of these people.

In other random news, I have sold two medals that were fake, and I think I sold them as the real thing. Yet on a technicality I never stated they were real. However I can't help but feel bad because they left feedback saying 'I will cherish this item', but then again if they think its real its all the matters. With the money I am going to buy a real medal, from a shop!
