Contact lenses and Bolt 3D

Shot of a signpost in Abingdon town centre.

The photo is one I took when I was doing angles and viewpoints as part of my photography lessons. I finally managed to email some of the photos I took to post here when I’m lacking a photo. You guys love my photos it seems.

After having to get other people to put them in for me, I finally managed to put contact lenses in myself. Not panicking is one skill you have to learn to do, just stay calm and allow enough time to fail afew times. The first one I managed to put in my left one had to be took out as I got it too mucky. The right one is always a struggle but I managed it for once. I’m alright about my contact lenses check up appointment now.

Today was good fun. I went to the bus stop waiting for ages for the 35a and it reminded me of how many hours I must of waited for this bus when I went to school. I was about to call my Dad for a lift into Didcot but as I was going down my contact list, the bus arrived. As I got into Didcot, I noticed how much more windy it was and had a look in Next hoping to see one of my sister mates working in there. It seemed not.

After feeling awkward coming out of Next, I went in the direction of the cinema but ended up looking around Broadstreet which is a street mainly fulled with charity shops and more importantly, has a Subway. I glaced at the prices to make sure I have enough money left to have lunch there.

I looked at the time and wondered if the cinema would be open yet but thought I give it another few moments. So I headed to WHSmiths hoping to get a drink. Well that was till I looked at the price which was something like £1.79. I thought to myself this place is going to be next Woolworths disaster if they don’t lower their prices. I ended up getting a drink at Wilkinsons that was a only 89 pence to get the same drink of Diet Coke.

Bolt the Dog (C) Disney animation

It was ten to midday and therefore I thought as Bolt 3D started at ten past that it might be open. I really should of looked at the opening time before walking into the door. That hurt badly and I felt like a idiot. I recovered the situation by looking at the opening times and sighing. What to do for ten minutes I pondered to myself and then thought when I went into Argos with Dan for some reason.

The memory was when I finished my mock GCSE exam and did it in a different room to most of the year that had Dan and MJ among others. I left my phone on their desk as for once handed it over like you meant to but I forgot to pick it up. So I dashed back to the school and then chased back to Dan as I wanted to say goodbye properly. He asked when my bus was and said I could help him look at pool table stuff in the Argos till it came. Anyway back to the post, it ended up that I spent ten minutes acting like I was looking for stuff in Argos as it was warm place to wait.

When Cineworld did open up, I was first in and got my ticket with some rather expensive popcorn. I was expecting some cardboard glasses for the 3D movie however I had some neat ones which look like the safety glasses they have at schools. I rather enjoyed Bolt 3D and the effects was okay. Amazing would be over doing things but I can understand why Disney want the rest of their animations to be in 3D. I say be at least three rows back from the screen to benefit the most.

When I got out, I headed straight to the bus stop to check how long it will take for the bus to arrive. I had enough time to buy a Sub and therefore ate one whilst waiting for the bus. The bus was late but I wasn’t complaining because I had times when it never arrived before. On the way back in bus I saw a nasty crash with a ambulance and police that was sad to see.

Overall I had good time today. I didn’t feel so bad about being alone after all and it felt good that I could feel my independence. I’m hoping to go to gym soon but it all depending if my mom can give me a lift. :|

Drunken call

I have a long day today and about to get some sleep soon but I thought I better keep this updated. This morning I wouldn’t like repeating anytime soon really. It wasn’t terrible but I really didn’t like it. Firstly in the first lesson I was expected to work in a group with the two people I most dread working with. They have special needs more bad than I got and they the people you have give roles and be the boss. But I didn’t feel like doing that. I wanted to return to the group I was put with since I started the course in this lesson.

Secondly the assistant was a person called Sean for the first two lessons. He is young for the role he is doing and he doesn’t have a clue about anything really. He doesn’t open his mind to different views for a situation which is bad if he want to help people out. He keeps pestering me and I rather he sod off really as he thinks I can’t be arsed when it really isn’t the case.

I had a interview in the afternoon as I applied for the two year course which is the next level up from the course I am doing at the moment. Apparently I might applied a tad too early but my tutor Sue bugged me to submit a applaction in so I did. I got a place for the course along I don’t cock my grades up which is good. At least I don’t have to think about that now.

After the interview I met my mom in the gym she goes to and it was the first time I went to it. After I finally found the correct stairs for the gym that was. I was impressed how clean and shiny it was. It was rather posh and everything was new looking in it. I was thinking of getting some exercise and improve my health after talking to mates which have got six pack and look buff. SoI decided to join it and I got my first appointment on Monday. Yay!

Just now I got a phone call from Dan. I was lying down nearly falling to sleep when a bright light started shining. It turned out to be my phone turned on slient on the desk. I managed to answer the phone in time and I was tried really to understand or talk well. Put a smile on my face when Dan was too out of it to understand how to hang the phone up. I wasn’t going to hang it up when I only just woken up am I.. haha

Dentist appointment

I had a dentist appointment this afternoon like I mentioned before.

I got picked up and got there early with my mum and sister to find that they running late. That isn’t abnormal for my dentist. It probably like that with every NHS dentist. I don’t know..

Anyway, my dentist poked around my freshly brushed month to moan about how I haven’t brushed it today, (I must of done such a bad job..) and then proceeded to poking it till he frigging made a hole. I need a filling because of that. I was quite annoyed.

My back is painful as I had to sit on these badly designed brightly coloured plastic bucket seats that looked wore out. If you know that it will overrun then you should supply something that you can sit in comfortably whilst waiting. If they replaced them seats with anything else, whatever you replace them with would be majorly better.

I’m going to have a bath now before I have a early sleep. Happy times..

College boy

Its my second day of being at college and its the best decision I made so far. It is different type of learning than it was at school which I really love. I’m not overloaded with all kinds of different subjects and I can just focus on three main things: Media, English and Photography. The college grounds is a nice size and it was easy to get used to the layout of the place. They have decided to paint every wall in the college and spent lots of money for all these buckets of paint.

It was really strange with groups on the first day but its getting better already. I disliking the breaks at the moment as I’m stoned bored. I really need to find some good mates I can have a laugh with as the current people I hang with just act like nobs. Hhmm

Today wasn’t good as the group I was with didn’t work well with this chav who wanted to be director but didn’t really direct or manage the group really well. He needed to tell what people was meant to do and planned as a group before we started filming. I would of done a much better job at it! And to top it off, it was outside filming with heavy rain so my afternoon dentist appointment looked really glorious to me.

There is a lot of sexy people at college which is good eye candy for me. :P It been like the first time I been properly attracted to girls. I had to control myself not to drool over them. I just wanted to cuddle everyone in reaching distance. Well within certain conditions that they wasn’t old.

I’m one of the eight from my college to first get the NUS extra card as I was a early ordering the card and ordered the 2007 one by mistake, however NUS noticed though and corrected it for me. NUS has aload of website bugs to smooth out before uni students get their hands on the website.

I will be taking more photos within the few weeks. I got tomorrow off so I’m going into Oxford. Haha!
