Last night was the annual department Christmas party. This year it was held in University College (Oxford) student bar.

On the whole it was a fun event as quite enlightening as to who are really
friends and who just talk to me at teatime ‘cos there’s no-one better. This
information is good to know.

I was persuaded, yet again, to show off how bad I am at dancing.. and I’m really in the “shouldn’t ever try at all” category.

It was good to socialise with John, Katie and Sam again. Some of the first
year postgrads are good company too. As for the rest, I don’t really care
if they ignore me or not. It’s their loss if they don’t want me as a friend.

On the whole it was a decent party though.

Tonight I’m off to Reading to meet Matt (sleipnir_) and Nick so as to go
and see the second part of the Lord of the Rings film, The Two Towers. That
should be fun. Still, the film doesn’t finish ’til 12:30am so I won’t get
home ’til at least 1:30am and I have to get up and journey to Cornwall tomorrow
for Christmas.
