'Ohh! Poor sarcastic art student. You must be devil with the ladies!'
Well what a bloody waste of time that was >: ( !
‘Group C to meet outside the Tate Modern at 11:00 sharpish’…
Now, to most people, you’d assume that you had to meet outside the Tate Modern at 11:00.
But Oh No… for one person this meant stroll aimlessly around the London area until you manage to find a place that looks sorta like an art gallery, then at 11:35, go in it.
This person just happened to be our new teacher who was supposed to be giving us the tour! What’s the point of writing ‘sharpish’ if your not going to turn up on time at all?
What if the Thunderbirds did that?
‘5…duh…4…duh…3…duh…2…duh…1'
(silence)
...
...
(still silence)
...
...
(sound of tumble weed in background)

BOOOOOOM! 'THUNDERBIRDS ARE GO!'
So we’re all standing around like a bunch of lemons waiting for something to happen, and nothing did. I had a look around inside a bit later while everyone split up into the various sections of the group, but to be honest, I couldn’t be bothered. Now don’t get me wrong… I like the Tate Modern. But when you’ve been there as many times as I have in the past, not a lot changes.
It does get me a tad frazzled on occasion though.
Particularly when passing the painting of a blue square.
If any of you haven’t seen this blue square, I recommend you should definitely go and check it out. Get this… It’s this square right… and this guys painted it blue. Yeah, can you believe it? He’s a genius. Totally inspiring. Totally original. And it completely justifies the 6 square feet of white space that it covers on the wall.
For those of you unfamiliar with sarcasm, that was it.
I’m a student ‘artiest’. I know about open mindidididness. But that’s a complete lack of effort on both the artist and gallery’s behalf.
Tate Modern: ‘Ohh! Look! A Blue Square! How modern and kooky! Here’s 50 thousand Mr. Artist.’
Mr. Artist: Heh, Heh, Suckas!
We were supposed to be there till 2 o’clock but I snuck out at 12 and grabbed a baguette.
I have a feeling that since being my second baguette of the week, the sandwich with a filling business must be booming. This one was much a more substantial lunch than before. They actually decided to butter it this time. I guess when you pay the extra £1.75p, your much more likely to get what you ordered. I do like Upper Crust. I always think it’s a pizza place thou.
I put a tenner on my phone today to get my 300 free texts and they haven’t come. Bastad O2. I believe I’m getting slightly obsessed with money. Mabye it’s my lack of it that’s the problem. Isn’t student life great?!
I’m off now, gonna do something else for the rest of today. Race snails or something.
T.T.F.N.
BTW: Ash, you still have a load of stuff at mine. Alywin can I have City Of God back? Thanks for the comment Blake.

You Suck! Love Newman
There's a SLIGHT chance that I'll be visiting the Tate Modern for Freshers Week. If I do go, I'll be sure to have a butchers at this "Totally inspiring. Totally original" blue square that you rave about - sounds fantastic.
As you know, I'm a big fan of sarcasm when it's performed well. You, my friend, performed excellently. Bravo.
Oh, and James (Newman) - Matt does suck, but that's extras ;-)
