Mocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2day i had a physics mock which i did awful in. Monday i had a history mock which i think went ok. Friday i have a maths mock which should be fine. it's only statistics.

This week so far has been boring. Nothing eventful has happened i think. The camera strap on my camera broke but has been fixed by my knotting skills. My ipod has been getting a lot of scratches and bruises so i may replace the screen protector again and make it look beautiful again. I can never stop breaking things.

Galaxy day. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Wednesdays are amazing. Galaxy and lucozade and me and ems caught the early bus home. My mind is currently on THORPE PARK more than revision. silly Ross. so far it'll be 4Th or 5Th June. it's getting there and back that's the problem. Train evolves a lot of changes, is expensive and complicated. It would be easier to do lifts with some v nice parents. There are so far a lot of people going: Me, Matt Wisby, Emily James, James Frampton, Alex Gatherer, Saff Byers, Tom Pinchin, Becky Sims (Tom is forcing me to invite her), Steve Springate, Andy Mien, Sebastian Woodhams, Ollie Moore and Hannah Barham. That's 13 people. and there are still the maybes which are Jared and Mikaela. So will need a lot of nice parents.

anyway that's it

A weekend with a lot of Tom

I've spent all of this weekend with Tom Pinchin. This is because i spent the weekend camping with him in the new forest. The occasion for this camp was a meet up of all Hampshire Scouts that are going to Switzerland in the summer. Nice to meet new people. It was a fun but tiring camp. We go to Ferny Crofts Campsite around 2. Set up tent and chilled. Later they set up activities like PUSH BALL. when you play football with a ball the size of a man so you have to push it hence the name. There was also an evil obstacle course. And some tug of war and volley ball. We all stayed in our sub-camp groups. Me and tom were in the Greeks. That evening we had a disco which for the first half hour involved just me and Joe North dancing. Tom got a very humorous vid of me dancing. Then everyone went to disco. Disco was cool and also involved some party games like under and over with a water balloon. There was also foam at this party. Not much but still some. Disco ended at 11 and we all attempted to go to sleep which i failed miserably at. I just couldn't sleep even though i was well tired. I eventually dosed of around 2.30-3. Hence now I'm very tired. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

SUNDAY: i woke up around 7 i think. had breakfast. relaxed. Then i went to a Q&A with the Swiss leaders. I learnt some things but i was mainly focusing on the washing up place as i thought i could see MATT WISBY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Q&A was over so we got ready for home. Whilst we were chilling i went on a journey to find MATT. I saw him from a distance and it was soo him. I think he saw me. Not sure. Then we left around 10.30. y so early. cause at 2 was st. George's Day Parade. This was boring like always and me and tom were both very tired by this point. And there was no band for the parade!!!!!! There is always a band. stupid thing.

Anyway this weekend has been fun. Camp was great but tiring and i met some cool people. I just got back from watching F1. BUTTON WON!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOT WOOT.

I soooooooooooooo tired

History mock 2morrow which i will actually fail.

BYEBYE

20th post: No more photography dance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually there is some more photography. I've got to go in to photography on Monday to hand in unit 2 but only quickly. Also i have to go back on may 8Th to hand in unit 1. But i have no actual photography lessons which is so good. In the first few months of college, photography was my favorite lesson. I loved it. Over time we stopped learning, as there isn't much to learn, and lessons got boring and repetitive. and now i hate photography so I'm glad I've got no more lessons of it. This also means my timetable for these next two weeks is very awesome.

Monday: start at 10.40. Maths. then break till 2.45. History double. End 4.35

Tuesday: start 8.30 :(. Maths. Physics. break till 11.35. text pro. lunch. History. End 2.45

Wednesday: start 9.25. History. Key Skills. General Studies. Free till 2.45. Physics double. End 4.35

Thursday: start 10.40. Physics. Maths. End 12.30

Friday: start 10.40. History. break till 12.30. Tutor. Lunch. physics. Maths double. End 4.35

Sure i still finish 3 times at 4.35 but i also start 3 times at 10.40. Tuesday and Thursday are the same as always as they were already no photography days. :)

Anyway, college is ok. Driving on Thursday was ok. I'm nearly test standard. But as exams are soon the test will be put on hiatus.

2day was quite an eventful day. I had to hand in my photography unit 2. This did go to plan mostly as i handed in my final 10 shots but not my PowerPoint as I'm going to make my CD look better. As I've got a program to put artwork as a CD cover. The teacher has allowed me till Monday to hand it in.

Also 2day i had a good old fun maths mock. It wasn't impossible but wasn't easy. In the middle. I think it went ok. I'll find out my grade next week.

My performance in history is getting worse and worse. weird i know. i started doing c grade essays then Ds now Es :(. I need to do a lot of revision to go back to C. I'll hopefully do it.

Over the weekend i won't be doing much homework or revision. This is as I'm going camping in new forest 2morrow for a night. Should be fun. And Sunday afternoon I'll be marching in the St.. George's Parade. I hope you all watch me. This year all I'm doing is marching which I'm v happy about.

BYEBYE

Back at College :(

I'm back at college :(. it hard work and I've got a lot of mocks coming up. Maths Core 2 on Fri, History on Mon and Maths Statistics 1 next Fri. But it's sunny. We went outside for lunch :). 

Right what's happened in the last four days. Well Saturday was a physics day and Sunday was a maths day. And that was the weekend. I spent Sunday watching the f1 where Button came 3rd which i was happy with he's still top overall. And Hammiliton did better but still wasn't up to standard I still blame his car not him it's never his fault. 

Monday i went back to college which was ok. Tiring. Today wasn't that eventful. I gave my camera to Jen, me, Ems and James and all together today 71 images were taken. 71!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would upload the best ones but i can't be bothered to look through 71 images and chose the best 3. too much effort. But still 71 photos u 3 need to stop taking so many. Actually i don't care my camera can still fit another 121 photographs. 

I really don't have much left to say. I gave in my check for Thorpe Park with the Maths Dept which should be fun on July 13Th. Last wk of college. It's soon George's birthday and I'm wondering whether to get a present or not. i don't have long to decide. Today was an expensive day i spent £32 odd. £25 on Thorpe Park, £5 on Math revision guides, £1.10 on Slush Puppy mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm and £0.55 on some skittles so that's £31.65. So i think i will have to cancel the galaxy 2morrow i decide later. 

Now i have nothing more to say

I can't think of a better title then: jkfhjduhjfkjfklsuirusaklfjkhjashfjshdafhajkshfjh

I just got back from my tea. For tea i had some nice lamb chops but they were sadly more fat then meat. But the meet was gd.

Anyway, I haven't done a post since Tuesday so I've got 3 days to tell the world about. This blog is turning more and more into a diary of interesting things in my life on a day by day basis. I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing but it's true.

Right on to Wednesday. That day mainly involved maths and a lot of it. Also like every day recently it contained a lot of GTAing. I did 20-30 maths qus and I've got around 50 left :(. and two physics papers :(. and only two days to do it all :( i should of worked earlier on in these two weeks but i didn't meh.

Thursday was another work day this time it was photography. I was doing the write-up for my photo shoot on Monday and editing some photos. gd old Photoshop. This is all part of my photography unit 2 and the main subject is buildings. I decided/teacher forced me to do my unit 2 on PowerPoint. Now over the past months I've got v used to 2007 PowerPoint so doing some of the project at home with 2003 PowerPoint was hard and confusing as i couldn't find anything. my unit 2 has to be all handed in next Friday and there is a lot that needs to be done. Then we spend the last two weeks looking back on unit 1 and making it better.

And now we come to today. Tom came round which was fun. He right now is round a certain someone's house and he is currently getting v intimate with this certain someone. Subtle. Anyway having tomazine round was fun. He brought my lover (Safari) back to life. yes it working again so I'm v happy. thanks tom. We spent most of the day playing the simpsons game and showing me clips from Spring awakening which is a very weird and dirty play. We also went on LBP(little big planet) for a while which is so weird and annoying. The game never was as gd as Sony said it was going to be but it's still fun.

I've now eaten both my Easter eggs. I ate a whole one whilst watching the apprentice. I did feel a bit ill.

College starts soon :(/:) not sure if college starting is good or bad. It's good as i like college but it's bad as end of holidays and EXAMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111

The End for today's post BYE

Back to Eastliegh






It's blog time woot woo.

My life is gd and fun and I'm happy. Everything is gd. :)

Easter Sunday was ok. got an egg from the parents. I had two eggs over Easter an so far I've only eaten half an egg. Sunday was a gd day that mainly involved work.

Monday was a much better day. I went into Southampton with my mum to buy some new shoes. Then she left me to take building pics. Southampton is amazing on one side u ave all tutor houses and wall and on the other are very modern buildings using a lot of glass and a sea design. I took around 40 photos and they were gd ones. I got back home around half 2 via a bus. Then i spent the rest of the day instead of working watching the film Blackbeard's Ghost.

Now on to 2day. I enjoyed 2day. It started with me waking up at 10.41 due to my phone going 'Ross u ave a message'. I went to Eastleigh again this time with different people who also wanted to try out the vue. There were 7 of us. Me, Ems, Steve, Saff, Laura, Tom and Kezia. we spent a lot of time deciding on a film which we all would like. our options were '17 again', 'Monsters vs Aliens' and 'the boat that rocked'. We decided on Monsters vs Aliens in 3-D!!!!!!!!!!! Before the film we chilled in town which seemed to involve a lot of Kezia killing Steve. Most of us had McDonalds for lunch. I of course had a deli from there containing chicken and bacon. mmmmmmmmmmmm. I love delis but they take sooooooooooo long. Now on to the film. We put on our 3-D glasses which were boringly not the retro red and green ones. The film was gd. Not amazing. A gd enough plot but very simple but this is for kids. Quite funny. Did the 3-D make it much better YES. It was so gd in 3-D. The depth it gave the scenes was amazing. and having things come very close to u is awesome. the 3-D was impressive but not perfect. I got some gd pics of us wearing the glasses. So the film was gd not as gd as a pixar film but still gd. I nearly forgot Steve being the idiot he is got a £20 fine from the train as he did not get a ticket before getting on the train. typical Stephen. 

So town was gd. life is gd. I've got nothing planned for the rest of the week. Tom will come round at some point but this week is mainly work work work :(.

everything is so much bigger nad better quality now :)

Hi.

2day was a gooooooooooooooooooooooooooood day. So I'm happy. I'll explain y it was gd later but first YESTURDAY.

Yesterday I went to the vue with Alex and Matt. the vue is a cinema in Eastliegh which just opened and we wanted to try it out. when we walked in we were impressed. It looked quite modern. Buying tickets was a bit confusing as you get them from the food area or a weird but cool machine. We got our tickets for 'THE BOAT THAT ROICKED' for only £4 as they were on special offer. film was awesome and v funny. Great cast. Seats had a lot of leg room but weren't comfy. I decided to pick up a leaflet of the prices for future reference. I was disappointed. A student ticket on Sat or Sun cost £6.50 which is more then odeon and the odeon is better. What's weird is a teen price is £6.10 so we pay more via showing are cards. You make no sense. But in small writing it says teen is 13-18. so don't show ur student card till ur over 18. Rest of day was ok. eastliegh isn't that amazing.

Now on to today. I got up at 9 and had coco pops for breakfast. Then i got ready and completed half a history essay. Then something interrupted me and my work. My mum shouting 'Ross, Ur Easter present is here.' sure it was a day early but i didn't care. I shouted downstairs 'is it an egg'. she said no. i then asked if it was edible. again no. WEIRD.so i went downstairs. I had an idea of what it could be. I reached my hallway and i saw a very big box and inside this box was a 40 inch tv. :):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):). so it's taken 2 years of hinting to them that we needed one. SO we got it all set up and it looks amazing. My ps3 looked awesome. me=happpppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppy. But i had an idea that it would be a tv. As last Saturday my parents went to comet to apparently look for a new iron even though our current one was fine. But whilst they were out i saw a piece of paper with a list of tvs. I looked up my parents recent internet browsing and it was mainly comet. The links were tvs not irons. I'm so happppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppy!!!!!!!!

Ipod is back :) :) :)

My ipod is back so I'm happy. It's actually not my ipod. They sent me a new one so I'm even happier. I've just started syncing it. It's gonna take some time. It took forever to get here though. That's my mums fault. She had my old ipod engraved with R.N.H (my initials). And they only do engravings in China so I had to have a new ipod with engravings from China. We phoned up and found this out and that there was a hold up in China. So we decided to get a non-engraved one. So I've got a new ipod touch with no engraving for nothing. Good old warranty.

Today i went driving. It went really well. I didn't stall at all :). My instructor had placed a sticker on the rev counter as i spent all the time looking at it and not the road. So this time i kept my eyes on the road more. Also i was more relaxed and calm as it's Easter. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I've done some homework recently but not any more of my 100 maths qus. They are an evil department. 

The simpsons failed so i instead have another treat for my ipod. A Bug's Life. Also I'm currently converting School of Rock for my ipod. This converter i found is amazing. I love it. It does vob. files properly. All other converters fail with videos from my DVD recorder but this one works really well. 

So I'm happy.

2morrow I'm going to town with Matt and Alex. We are gonna try out the vue in Eastleigh.

:)

Grandpa Hill

2day i actually did something. I went to visit my Granddad. I haven't seen him since February last year so it was nice to meat up. He's getting a bit old and he's finding life hard. His legs are more metal then flesh and he's confided to a wheelchair. He lives in Wells in Somerset. Big lovely cathedral there. Took about an 1 hour and 3/4s to get there. I had to listen to my sisters choice of music as she had plugged in her ipod. Her taste in music is mainly chart music so mainly R&B which i mostly loath but some songs i like. Anyway i had a nice day with my Granddad.

I just got back from watching two episodes of heroes. The first was awesome. A first for this season. I really enjoyed it. The second was awful like the rest. Looks like that former episode was a fluke :(.

And that was 2day. I've got a treat for my ipod for when it comes back. TEAM AMERICA!!!! Brilliant film and will be on my ipod when i get it back. It took me a whole two days to do. I'm also setting up THE SIMPSONS MOVIE as it's amazing.  I want my ipod back :(. They said 5 working days and so far it's been 5 as they took it on Monday (Saturday and Sunday aren't working days) but we've had no email about it coming 2morrow. oh well.

That Bournemouth Uni thing

On Thursday I went to Bournemouth with the college. Ems, Alex, Jen and Kezia were also on the trip. When we got there were disappointed over how the uni looked. Then we had to make a decision. We would either go to a lecture and then go to the stalls but run the risk of some stalls running out of prospectuses or go into massive queue for stalls, get prospectuses, and go to no lectures. We chose the latter. The queue was long but we took a shortcut as we are sneaky. Then we all got spilt up the moment we went inside. By the end of the day me and alex had around 25 prospectuses. Emily had like 40. Jen and Kezia had like 70 each. Exaggeration but they had a lot. Overall it was an ok trip. I was disappointed that the stalls didn't expect such a big turn out. And i won't be going to oxford as they wanted 3 As!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We spent most of the day reading a girlish magazine Ems brought. We were quite bored.

Friday was normal. Saturday i spent the whole day GTAing. And Sunday i watched the F1

BUTTON WON AGAIN :). Sadly he only got 5 points as all points were halved. Button is winning overall and Hammilton so far only has one point. I think it's more of the car's fault then his.

Also 2day i went to church. It was Palm Sunday so it was all age worship. No TAG so i wasn't happy. It's one of the main reasons i go as it's so lad back and more modern. The service was fairly boring just singing and listing to readings. The old folk (meaning everyone) all chuckled over some PowerPoint effects whereas i just despaired as it's such a simple effect. 

I haven't got anything planned for this week yet but i don't care. I just want to relax. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Silly bus driver. SILLY SILLY BUS DRIVER

2day was a fun day. Actually it was a brilliant day and i normally hate Wednesdays. They r evil. Worst day of the week.

Firstly, it was sunny again :). We went outside :). I love the sun. Sure there was still a wind but it was still warm.

Secondly, i completed my physics coursework. I didn't finish it last night and it was in for 2day so i completed and printed it in my photography lesson. My teacher had no idea i spent the whole lesson on physics instead of photography.

Thirdly, i tried the cookie crunch galaxy. I got out of physics early (like always) so i was able to get myself galaxy and Lucozade. so now it time for 'ROSS HILL'S AND EMILY JAMES' REVIEW TIME' (random theme tune). And here are ur hosts Ross Hill and Emily James. now me and Emily both have the same chocolate taste. We both think lindor is the best chocolate and galaxy is second. We both thought that this new type of galaxy was interesting. It was very nice. We preferred the original but we thought it was good to have every now and again. Emily liked it so much she had 2 columns when she normally only has one. So all in all it's a brilliant bar of chocolate and we both liked the texture of the hard cookie and the soft chocolate merged together. One problem was it was harder to get a whole column off in one go due to the cookie pieces. the end. credits roll.

Fourthly, the bus ride home. This beats all previous bus rides. I've been getting bluestar buses since the start of Thornden so I've had many amazing and unexpected bus rides home. 2day i had the best ever one. But first here are my top 4 bus rides home!!!:

Coming in at fourth is the time the bus went back to Thornden. I was on the bus home. the bus driver was annoyed that some kids upstairs were making a lot of noise. So at the Hiltinbury crossroads the bus turned left instead of caring straight on. He then took us back to Thornden where he forced us all to get off. Ms Braithwait eventually convinced the bus driver to take us home. And that was that.

Third was the broken window. This one happened just before we reached knightwood i think. I was downstairs at the time. The bus hit some twigs from a tree like always but this time the twigs wanted payback. I'm not sure as i was downstairs but the top window either broke or got badly scratched. No one was injured. So i had to walk home from knightwood.

At Second is the smoking bus. Basically there was smoke coming from the bus which is clearly bad. so he pulled over at knightwood and forced us all of. So i walked home. As i was walking home i was passed by two fire engines and a police car. My mum who works at knightwood told me later that they were for the bus. Actually there wasn't even a fire. They had sent out this much as it was close to a school and if there was a fire it would get bad very quickly.

At the winner of the top prize, the holy grail of bus rides, is the time the bus ran over someones car. This event happened 2day. The 4.50 bus was around 10mins late. This bus is normally packed with us students and there aren't many seats left after the Barcleys stop. Anyway the bus was in a bit of a rush as it running late. So after the barcleys stop the bus i believe turned to sharply and went over the bonnet of a car on the next lane. This gave the car a destroyed left bonnet and a puncture to the left tire. The right side of the bus went up and we heard a very big cracking sound when this happened. The bus turned round the corner and pulled over. As it turned my and Emily were able to see the full damage it caused the car. Now Winchester like many towns contains many signs on buildings to get more customers. As the bus was pulling over it hit on of these signs. We all cracked up. This was the icing on the cake as the saying goes. The bus wasn't that damaged and Ems thinks we should take them into battle. i think a tank is better then a bus but oh well. We all got off. The damaged car had moved and pulled over next to the bus so to not block traffic. I'm surprised the car could still move. We saw that inside the car was an old women and a girl around 10. They were both fine. i was going to take pictures of the car for memories but i don't think the old women would of been v happy with me. So we got on to the next bus. The 4.10. and that took us home. This bus was hit by traffic due to rush hour and the crash earlier. so i got home around 6.10 instead of 5.30. This meant i ate all the galaxy and now i feel ill. So now bluestar has to fix the car, fix their bus and buy that company a new sign.

So that was a v long blog. 2day was awesome. A very memorable day indeed. BLUESTAR is awesome :)

P.s: Monday was Bass' birthday. He was happy :). He had an awesome day. But he had a very heavy bag due to a card containing a lot of coins. Cubs was awesome but i can't be bothered to explain y. Tuesday was average and normal. Nothing eventful.
