Went to York yesterday for NUS conference training, loads of fun, should be good next week. So, today has been interesting. We had our bi-annual Jam radio elections, and I stood for station manager, and won the election, but it was a close tie. See hullstudent.com media-> jam for more info. It's interesting because some people do not like the fact that I am now station manager and are already lobbying people for a vote of no-confidence, which would be amusing as it would be the second one against me in the Student Union, to I have "power hungry" written on my forehead? does the want to change things and the perseverance to do it make you the target for unwanted attention, in my case it always seems to. Apparently "John C has too many fingers in too many pies. That he comes into societies telling them how to run themselves and once involved operates a divide and rule policy." taken from Ents subcommittee minutes, 13/03/02. I used to be chair of ents, before a successfull vote of no-confidence, that is an extremely long story involving somebody saying that somebody elses girlfriend couldn't be on the guestlist for an event, it got back to that somebody that I had said this, which I hadn't, but that didn't matter... I think I've been "misunderstood" eversince. I remember e-mailing the whole story to someone last year, so I'll try and find it.
What's interesting is that I am going on NUS conference in Blackpool next mon-thurs, missing two jam meetings, my job is ripe for the picking and the hawks are circling.
Listening to Manu Chao, a free CD from the SRA conference, I laughed at Mandy for saying it was wicked when she saw it, how could some spannish guy with a guitar be good? How wrong could I be. Its awesome. I'm wanting to go to MedSoc, (mediterainian society) tomorrow night, but I've a feeling I might have too much on, which is a shame, as it's £2 and free sangria all night long... Also... Had a lump at the back of my throat for the past 3 days, Phil thinks its tonsillitis, so I've been sucking on an aspirin, or two. Thought of a wicked new invention, for digital photography linked to postcodes and mobile phones... more later. Bye for now.
