FA Cup, Missing Lectures and Second Life (again)

So.

Hi again. Long time no blog! Sorry about that, i'll explain in a little while...

Firstly though, Argyle are AWESOME!!! We're through to the Quarter Finals of the FA Cup, the lowest-placed team in the league left in the competition. We have a real chance against Watford, we're at home (and on fire), they are on a poor run of form, with no confidence...we could win this one, and get a place in the semi-finals. I've never had anything like this in my years of supporting Argyle, so it's quite an exciting time at the moment!

Sorry for missing the lecture. I had booked a 3 night stay in a hotel for myself and my Northern Irish girlfriend, Cherith, for Valentine's Day, ages ago...well, a few weeks before i knew which lectures i was studying. As a result, i couldn't go back on it, as she had booked flights etc. It's quite tough trying to balance everything, in terms of Uni, work and visiting my girlfriend and can be quite stressful trying to fit everything into not much time at all...i'll be in tomorrow ;)

Second Life is starting to get quite addictive. It is a really fun way of meeting some quite extraordinary characters...and some less savoury ones...

On my first day, i asked a girl if she could help me with getting some free clothes and with other control-based issues. She helped me out to start with, seemed quite nice...until she asked me to follow her (ie, she went somewhere, then offered me a teleport to her location). She took me to a sex shop! I made my excuses and left, of course. There seems to be quite a lot of casinos within the second-life world, and some of these have topless dancers roaming around in them, which again shows the seedier element of the game.

Then there was Paradise Island, a place where you can take a partner to enjoy some...shall we say, nocturnal activity. I flew into what appeared to be a secret area under a picturesque waterfall, only for this (censored in places) scene to greet me:

Ooh er!!!

Also, i've found some pretty cool things, which i've taken snapshots on...nothing like above, mind! So i'll save them to a USB stick and bring them in to show y'all tomorrow...
