Twenty-one.

The sun is here

Yep, that's right, the sun is here and that can only mean one thing. It's revision time! So I've been spending the majority of my time in the library, rather than spending precious time in the British sunshine (we all know it won't last long). Checked the weather forecast today, what a mistake! Turns out is is due to rain about an hour after I finish my exam on Tuesday. Bloody typical. This gives me little motivation to stay in the libes and revise, knowing I'm probably missing the only sun of the summer! However, I have been managing around 4 hours per day stuck in that hell-hole!

Yesterday, we went to watch the Olympic Torch Relay in Coopers Field in the city centre! Was such a nice evening, and a free event! Sat on the grass, in the sun with a cider and music! Was a perfect little revision break and had got me so excited for London 2012!

Fingers crossed the sun decides to stay!

Wembley

Firstly, what a week of football! Absolutely gutted than United were beaten to the top by their biggest rivals, City, due to 2 last minute goals. Not going to dwell on that day too much, gutted really doesn't come close. But it was a nail biting end to the season, and QPR need huge credit for that game, especially with their charming captain getting a red! The Champions League Final last night saw Chelsea crowned the kings of Europe after a thrilling game and tense penalty shoot out! Great to see an English team win, and if they don't keep Di Matteo, something aint right!

Yesterday I was lucky enough to go to Wembley for the Championship Play-off Finals. It was West Ham v Blackpool, and as most of my family are massive Pool fans, I donned my orange wig and was in full support of the Sea Siders! Plus I'm a huge fan of Ian Holloway, that man needs to be back in the Prem, what a legend! But sadly after an exciting game, West Ham managed to snatch a last minute goal to see them back in the Premiership (Match report to come)! As a football fan getting to see a game at Wembley really is an amazing experience, loved every minute of it!

Pretty gutted that it's now the end of the season, all I can say is bring on the EUROS then the Olympics (which I have tickets for, woop woop)!

Varsity 

The biggest sporting event at Cardiff University has got to be Varsity. No contest. Throughout the day sports teams ranging from football to badminton to rowing all compete against rival university Swansea in order to be crowned champions! The day of events comes to a close with a rugby match (of course, it's Wales after all) at the Millennium Stadium. This is my 3rd Varsity and previous years have both been amazing. A full day of drinking, socialising and watching sports events, combined with a whole host of hilarious banter, makes for one amazing and memorable day!

Even if you're not a huge rugby fan, the game is not to be missed! Purely for the atmosphere and friendly-come-offensive chants between the two sets of supporters! You might even be surprised and get into the spirit of the game itself!


Finally, after 2 years of watching Cardiff lose, we won in style! My last Varsity saw Cardiff smash Swansea 33-13! Here's a bit of info on the game: http://www.cardiff.ac.uk/news/articles/varsity-triumph-for-cardiff-8736.html

Some of my fave chants of the night:


'We are your Capitaaaaaal, we are your Capitaaaaaal!'
'Cardiff was your first choice, na na na na!'
'Your sister is your mother, your father is your brother, you all fuck each other, the Swansea family!'


And on that note, I'm off x
