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. :|

Graffiti bridge about to go go

I just read about what known locally as Graffiti bridge in Didcot about to be cleaned away. Its sad as I have many memory’s that I match with the Graffiti I saw in that bridge. I can understand the reason on why they are doing this as it does encourage Graffiti around the Ladygrove area but I rather like some of the characters drawn by some people.

Today went alright but it did have some downfalls. The laptop that I recently got given by the college looks like it has a wide-screen and it is generally a bulky heavy thing to lung about. I am about to order a new bag that will suits my needs better. The other downfall is not knowing when to shut my month and when to talk. I’m cringing at some of the nonsense I said today and the amount of moaning I did. It was really childish of me and it something I will need to adjust over time.

I was nearly late today as I didn’t realized that a more heavy bag will slow you down. I should of set off abit more earlier than I did but hay ho. I wasn’t late though. I hope I have met the standards and won’t have a warning letter. I gone in on time and sometimes early, I haven’t chatting too much in the lessons, and I haven’t been nasty as normal. So unless I am missing something that is strange, I think i have met their high standards.

I just went out to a pub as it was my mom’s birthday today. I feel guilty that I haven’t really made her day that special today however I might think something I should do with her on the weekend that she like doing like painting a plate or something like that.

Note to school – increase the blinkin memory space, I cannot save my work and I have deleted nearly all the stuff I don’t need. I will have to drag my memory stick in but I don’t seem why I have to provide space for myself just because the school has a really embrassing small server. Rant over!

One more mock tomorrow..

The week is beginning to end and that means that the mock exams are about to be completed. Should I feel uneasy that I am finding them easy and sitting there for 20 mins doing nothing but doodling. Maybe its a sign that I am really clever or really dumb..

I have caved in and started using Napster again. I got a deal with them that I’ll get Napster to Go if I pay £13 a month for 6 months. I think thats a good deal as a new cd costs £8 and Napster allows you to burn, so it really alot of Cds for just the price of a expense one.

I got back home today from the bus to find a package on the table for me, so I opened it up and found out that I’ve won a comp I entered on the Microsoft website and they have sent me Windows Vista! I am a happy person at the moment. Now I only got to upgrade the memory, install a DVD-RW drive, and backup hundreds of files. Hmm.
