Tomorrow morning (if the snow or the ice haven’t closed the college), I have to do my radio show in my group which will be graded by the tutor. I am the producer of the show  which basically means that I am the leader and also that I do the mixing desk. I wish I didn’t say we go first as I haven’t had a chance to play with the suite due to the college being closed the whole week. When I wake up I need to get some songs and print things out but I’m too knackered at the moment to do that.

On Saturday I went to the gym and for the first time did my routine without a person assistant which felt good. However I forgot to do the stretches after the warm up which was silly of me. The water that they sell there really annoys me as the label keeps coming off and the plastic is thin. I will have to remember to bring my own for Monday.For some reason I get a rush from the gym and feel alive. its really strange.. I felt warm for most of the rest of the day as well.

Today I went to see ‘He’s Just Not that into You’ and I’ll give it four stars. I thought it was funny, had a good soundtrack and you felt cheerful and smiley at the end of it. I loved their version of ‘Somewhere only we know’ by Keane as they remixed it to work with the scene. I liked how you thought you could guess the storyline but the result was a tad different to what you taught was going to happen. I suck at reviewing movies but that my badly written view.

Talking about Keane, my family is going to see them at The O2 this Friday. I’m a tad worried on if the weather will muck things up and if my sister be able to get down from the North. I emailed their customer support to see what happens if you can’t attend due to extreme conditions however they didn’t want to comment in time for this post. I don’t think I should of mentioned my blog when I contacted them.

It wasn’t that bad just ‘bad’

16072008 I’m sorry that I’m posting the day after it happened yet again but here I go. Yesterday something which I was dreading throughout my childhood happened, my mum had a massive argument with my dad then drove off only to return to get changed into her work uniform.

I suppose I had it lucky as a child as some people I know have parents that have divorced or something like their Dad dying though their childhood and I didn’t even have my parents arguing till last night. I knew something wasn’t right about my parent relationship though, I never seen them hugging much, holding hands or even gross.. kissing! This is what I lead to believe of what parents should be doing in movies such as Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging.

I was kind of fazed this morning as when I went downstairs, I thought that my parents would still be fallen out with each other but they was perfectly happy eating breakfast. Maybe its down to my mum night shift and my dad having a snooze. Yeah, I happy for it to be that way but I didn’t quite recover from feeling poop last night, so I was frustrated that it was just being ignored completely.

I’m feeling fine now, I’m just bored as I’m normally am. I can’t wait until I can move out of this place but I feel that my mum never wants to let me go. I also feel that she would go completely bonkers if I left her alone with my dad.

Oh wait, I forgot to mention that I went to Waitroses and Tescos looking for a job but they didn’t have anything suitable for me. I need temporary but everything temporary been taken up at June. I couldn’t of got a job in June as I went on holiday then.. Where is the free newspaper? :P

Category Year round up

Please note: Photos in the post I have linked to may be broken due to the many server changes this blog had.

2007 is nearly ending and what a eventful year its been for me.

It started off with some snow fun and having great time in TGI Fridays. Apart from them two things I didn’t really do much that was exciting at the start of the year and the blog had its first ever Hiatus.

The next eventful thing that happened to me was going to my first ever gig which happened to be Keane. At school I got my first ever DT which was at the PE block. I took a photo of me wearing a red nose (now password protected) with the Walkers ears.. I later regret doing this as I uploaded it here which then meant other people saved it on their computers. The cold weather were damaging the cars at my house and caused problems for me.

In March, I was the first person to use a Key on my bus (not official but true :P ), everybody around the school had red hair but I didn’t as I had a brain to know the school wouldn’t like it and Virgin Trains didn’t cock the trip to Stoke at least.

In April, I nearly got sued for saying how crap a local band was. I decided that I didn’t get on well with the people I hanged around at the time (I didn’t like the bitching and the judging they did) and made a big choice. I buggered off and accepted the invite by Tom Loader and hanged around with his mates. My friendship with Tom Loader probably wouldn’t never of happened if Miss Buchanan didn’t force me to sit with him at form time.

‘I used to felt that I’m generally the one that now stand there in a group of ‘friends’ and has nothing to say that could relate to the conversation… I’d try and join in abit I felt a fool and small/silly for sayin’ something cuz I thought that it just didn’t fit in. Sometimes I used to just wanna sit in the corner and hide. I don’t feel like that any more with my new group of friends, yes I call them friends, and I’m talking and laughing all the time.’

In May, I was forced to talked about my dislike of some foods (I was a tiny bit mad) and ended up talking bananas. I was struggling with the coursework given to me, and wasn’t handling this in a really good way. I was basicly sorting my life out in this month. I changed drastically and felt more happy by the end of this month.

The same sorta thing was happening for afew months. There isn’t much worth mentioning till it gets to June. It was the month that my first ever own computer died. I started getting my arsed into gear in PE and started taking part in PE. In Science, I decided to ignore some good advice and exploded a glass tube which had a rather loud noise. I went to The Feeling gig also.

At July, some major events happened that effected everyone. I went to London when they found bombs and Abingdon flooded which meant I stayed in Stoke for awhile.

August nothing much happened apart my mum handbag got nicked and I went to a folk festival in
Cropredy. September is pretty much with the same as in not being eventful apart from Lulworth Cove.

In October, I was invited to the school on the first day of the half term holidays to do some English revision. I sided on some ice and injured myself, and saw the work happening on the school grounds.

In November, my age increased as I had a birthday and I discovered a thing called a razor. It didn’t shred my skin..

And now we have reached this month. December.. Well apart from seeing loads of movies at Cineworld and going into Oxfords lots.. I haven’t done much this month. I wonder what 2008 will turn out like?

Knocked up was crappy :(

I watched Knocked Up last night with my sister and a mate of hers. I decided to use the ‘free’ diet coke vouchers up (that I got before when I brought a bundle of popcorn and drink from Cineworld before), and they didn’t force me to buy popcorn like the T&C said I had to do.

It was mine choice to pick a movie and apart from horror movies, only Knocked Up was showing then, so I had a easy choice of Knocked Up or Knocked Up as my sister mate didn’t want to see horror movies.

As soon the movie started, I was wanting to leave. My god, that movie felt like I was in there for a whole day and a half. Also, I didn’t feel like much of a good story lines to it, there was just one crappy story line that wasn’t good.

I do have to say, if produced the film like the last bit of it, it would of been great. Overall rating of film is a 1.5 (the 1 is because of the last bit) of 10
