New Year's Eve

2010 2morrow :). I can't wait. I aven't been doing that much these hols. Just revising. First exam in 13 days and I'm no where near ready. It's Andrew's birthday today and my mum's 2morrow. Tonight should be gd.

My computer is still dead so I'm gonna have to reinstall windows and loose everything.

Last night I went to town with emily, James, Jacob and Ollie. We were going to go see avatar but as it's one of the biggest films of this year it had been all sold out. Instead we saw Paranormal Activity. Damn it's one scary film. Most of the film is v eerie. I only really got scared in the last 20 mins. The ending had me jump like crazy. Jacob was the most scared of all of us as he covered his eyes with his hands for most of the film. I really want to see the odeon vid of the audience that they do on that screen. I would have loved to se how much we all jumped near the end. Great film. I recommend seeing it at the cinema to get yourself truly scared and with a load of easily petrified people for comical value. Consequently I didn't have the best of sleeps but I'm fine now.

That be it. Happy New Year. Talk to u again in 2010

It's Christmas Time

It's christmas. This is my vlog about all things Christmassy.

life is gd :)

life is actually very gd at this current moment in time. There is still snow around though most of it has gone. it's 3 days till Christmas. And today was awesome

So what made today awesome? how about I GOT AN OFFER FROM CARDIFF :):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):). That makes me so :). Sure it's for 3 Bs but as Sussex already had asked for the same I was already in the mindset that i need 3 Bs to have the life I dream of. I've got to work hard :(.

I was going to start revising today but instead i spent it wrapping pressies and do a winter clean in my room. my mum asked me to clear the floor of all the birthday stuff (yes all ur things were littering my floor). Once I started cleaning i really couldn't stop.

Another thing that made today awesome was I got a new camera. it's a Panasonic TZ7. Now u may go 'hey didn't u quite recently get a new camera'. And yes I got a new camera for my 17Th birthday but it broke as it turned on in my pocket and all the gearing in the lens got destroyed. At this point u may also go 'But didn't u also break this camera in Feb when it was snow day'. Again yes I broke it on snow day for the same reason. Had nothing to do with the snow or cold as it survived Hockenhorn mountain just. I'm rubbish with technology. My new laptop has already shown the blue screen of death though it seems fine. So yeah i got my camera fixed then broke it again. Then i was a bit depressed on Tuesday so i decided to buy a new camera with my birthday money. I've always wanted a Panasonic lumix and now I have one :).

So unknown to all of u I've been without a working compact camera for over a week and it was slowly killing me inside. But now I've got 3 cameras (my compact, my DSLR and my black and white camera) and they all work :).

So that's why I'm happy.

Sadly last night I didn't go barn dancing due to the snow as Katie's parents were too scared of driving in it. But it was turning into ice so it makes sense.

So that be it. The shortest day has been and gone so now will see more of that sun once the clouds go

Bye

Christmas hols have started :)

5 days till Christmas :)

Rage is Christmas No. 1 which makes me ever so happy. Sure i brought neither (I never do) but i wanted Rage to win. Joe although is a gd singer he came from a show called X factor which everyone hates (though I do watch it as it's fairly gd TV and there is nothing else is on). But yes it is a karaoke show and not much different from stars in their eyes but they don't have the crazy costumes.

on Friday was Emily's birthday. She was a whole 18 years old. we had a meal at a Mediterranean restaurant in Eastleigh called Guzel Bistro. I had some seabass. It was a nice restaurant but completely deserted. after that we went to the vue to see Where the wild things are. It was quite a depressing film. It involved a boy with a ton of issues having no friends and running away from home. He found some weird creatures and became their king, then they all started to hate him so he left them with their land destroyed and went home to where he was still a loner with issues. pointless or what?? gd film though. dragged on a bit though and i would of liked a happier ending. Animation on these creatures was amazing.

I've got barn dancing 2morrow :)

Plus for the first time ever I've been invited to a new years party :) Actually that's wrong i went round the gatherers to celebrate the millennium. That was an awesome party. we did our on show based on Starlight Express. Also loads of balloons came from the ceiling when it turned 2000.

On Friday we also had snow. Like I said on Wednesday we had some snow at lunch but on Friday we had proper settled snow :). And then it snow really heavily at 9ish. I love the snow.

That's about it. I still hoping for a white Christmas.

BYE

Another offer. Another sarcastic woot

8 days till christmas :)

90th post

I'm happy. I blame the snow always boosts my mood. yesterday we were treated with a lot of snow at lunch at college. Sadly it didn't settle but still snow 9 days before christmas :).

I got another offer. This one I'm really annoyed about. It's from Swansea. This was going to be my backup as their prospectus offer was BCC. Sounds nice. But my conditional offer is for BBB. Makes no sense. So now I'm definitely not going there as Sussex is asking for the same and i loved that uni. So i've got 3/5 offers. Liverpool will tell me after the interview I have in Feb. So it's just Cardiff I'm currently waiting for. Come on Cardiff. Going back to Swansea they have asked me to go on a visit day and I'm wondering weather I'll go considering I don't want to be going there. what would be the point.

Anyway I have Sims 3 and it's damn confusing. I haven't played it much but three small things have impressed me quite a lot:

1. you can change the pitch of ur sims voices
2. you can rotate furniture to 45 degree angles (ZOMG)
3. the men pee standing upwards even when the toilet isn't a urinal :O

Tonight I am going out for my scout christmas do thing. should be gd. we're going to Nandos. Also i may be getting a beer with the leaders.

Talking about beer. Someone will be able to buy that for the first time 2morrow. EMILY

Finally i found out that one of the classic christmas songs is wrong. the classic I wish it could be Christmas everyday. It says When the snowman brings the snow. But the snow brings the snowman. u can have snow without a snowman but u can't have a snowman without snow.

Anyway that be all i ave to say

BYEBYEBYE

10 days till Santa comes to town

It's 10 days till Christmas which makes me so happy. I spent most of the weekend putting up my and my granny's Christmas tree. The Christmas spirit has touched everyone and everything. Both James and Andy were in Christmas moods. James was giving out chocolate to everyone he knew. I got a milka bar in the shape of Santa clause. Andy was wearing a Santa hat. Christmas has also changed the weather as today it snowed on me. I'm not kidding. Sure it didn't last that long and it won't settle but there was snow. So I'm now dreaming of a White Christmas. Just like the ones I've never had.

I spent today finishing my Christmas shopping though i forgot to get any cards. I'm forgetful. I also got Emily's present (I'm just putting this in just to annoy her as she really want to know what I got her)

I've figured out i use brackets loads in this blog. I just love brackets.

I still haven't heard anything about Cardiff which is kind of depressing now that I've seen it as I really want to go there. desperately. But now i look back on it the interview I had didn't go that well. I realized this today as I had a practice interview and it didn't go that well and he told me i need to make some improvements. the interview at Cardiff wasn't much different to what I had today and if I didn't do well today maybe i did badly a wk ago. I really have no idea. I really really really hope i get an offer. I just checked Ucas and I've got 2 offers woot. Sarcastic. Well Actually I'm happy with the first one as Greenwich is asking for 3 Cs/240 ucas points but I don't really want to go there (I'm predicted BBC). And Sussex is the depressing one. Initially I was happy about this as if I don't get into Cardiff I would love to go to Sussex but they are asking for BBB/ 300 ucas points. That's going to be some challenge to get. So I should feel happy that I got an offer but upset that the grades are too high considering in AS I got BBD and one of those B's was by one mark.

I'm off

I've done something that only adults can (legally) do

It's saturday :)

Life has been gd recently mainly cause I'm done with coursework for quite some time. This wk I had to hand in some big pieces of coursework. two 2000 word essays for history and a write up of my practical experiment in physics. Both went fine. In physics I was able to find absolute zero to be -265 and the real figure is -273.15 so i was close. What annoys me is we have recently been learning about pressure in physics hence my teacher did this experiment. She, with her 3 results in 5 mins, found absolute zero to be -270. She was closer even though i took 24 results in 2 weeks :( But still now that i've done these pieces I feel i can relax.

But I can't cause in a month tomorrow I'll have my first exam(that's the 13th of Jan). It's a physics resit. Then on the 20th i ave maths C3. Then on the 28th i ave physics exam. so I'll soon start revising :(

I'm an adult and what do adults do. DRINK BEER!!!!!!!!!!!!! so that's exactly what i did. On Friday me, James, alex, steve and ollie went to the pub to celebrate James' birthday. We were all 18 except steve. Hence we had manly drinks whereas steve had coke. So i brought alcohol and i had to show my id :). Me and ollie had beer. Alex and James had cider. It was all gd fun and we mainly insulted steve for being so young.

So I've done something that only adults are allowed to do. Being an adult is fun.

well that's it.

Birthday + Bowling + family get together = An extremely busy but amazing weekend

I'm an adult. I haven't yet used any of my new rights (like buying alcohol) but i will soon. Tomorrow night i hit the town of Cardiff with my dad for a boy's night out. More on that further down.

My birthday was amazing. Only negative is that when i got up and i saw my pile of prezzies and i also saw a pile for my sister. I'm quite selfish especially when it's my day but i soon got over it. I received a laptop, watch, a photobook of my life so far and some clothes from my family. My gran gave me a monitor for my PC. I haven't yet used it but i will soon. The laptop is an Advent Roma 1000 with 3 gb of ram, a 2.2 GHz processor and 250 Gb of space. It's currently running windows vista. But soon it will be upgraded for free to win7. I currently loving the laptop. Also i got a hole bunch of monies. I one of those weird people who enjoy getting money more then spending it. I just love the feel of money. I hate to spend it.

In the evening of my birthday i went out with a load of friends and I think it went quite well. There were 12 of us there. We first had a meal at Frankie and Benney's in Eastleigh. gd meal except we didn't have time to have deserts though i was full anyway. After my parents taking £80 off the price it meant we only had to pay £5 each. We then went next door to AMF bowling. We took our two lanes and played two amazing games of bowling each. In between the two games we had a interval when i opened up all my prezzies. I'm still terrified by the thing tecky gave my. I was happy with everything that i got from my friends. I also got a copy of Ice Age 3. What i like is that it came with a digital copy for my ipod. I've put it on there and it's such gd quality and only takes up 1.5 gb. Best birthday party so far? Hell yeah.

Today i had all my relatives round to celebrate my 18Th and my sisters 21st. We had a nice meal and i was able to catch up with some people. I talked about unis for the whole day.

Talking about unis tomorrow night I'm off to Cardiff for a uni visit and a informal interview. Should be gd. I'm getting a bit nervous as I really want to go there.

Well that's about it. I would like to thank everyone for an amazing wkend.

BYE BYE BYE BYE BYE BYE BYE BYE BYE BYE BYE BYE BYE BYE BYE BYE BYE BYE ( 18 cause well do i should need to say y)

Tomorrow I become an adult

That's right tomorrow i turn all old and stuff. I'll be able to buy alcohol, potentially change who's in power and go to nightclubs. Damn that's scary but I'm looking forward to it.

As i have only a few hours left of childhood i keep thinking about how amazing these 18 years have been. In history I've been assessing the turning points in China's history to see which one is the most significant. My life has been full of turning points and ups and downs but i easily know which turning point is the most significant. It happened in yr 10 when we were introduced to this other half of the year that had been non-existent for the past 3 yrs. In these 3 yrs i hanged out with the upper Fishpond courtyard crew. This consisted mainly of me, Alex, Luke, Sam, Andy and some others that I forget about. I never really enjoyed by time with this group and i knew i didn't fit in. I wanted to leave but i had no idea where to go. When I broke my leg in dec yr 10 my life hit a rock bottom. I had the worst Christmas of my life and school wasn't much fun as i had to stay upstairs and my friends had to visit me. Christmas was awful as i love gadgets and tech hence i normally get quite a lot for Christmas. Although i got a lot of tech i couldn't use it as i was stuck downstairs and most of it was for my computer. In this period i found out who my real friends were. The ones that visited me the most. The upper fishpond courtyard crew didn't see me often but the lower fishpond courtyard crew, which i had recently joined before I broke my leg, did. Hence, when my leg healed i soon joined this group permanently. I was much happier here and i had found a place where i fitted in. They were all hyper freaks like me and they were much nicer to me then the other group. I still in this group right now and I'm loving it. I've also have become one of the main members of this group. Therefore, the biggest turning point in my childhood was moving down two floors at the fishpond courtyard.

Sadly i haven't chanced that much since college. I'm more popular but not at all more confident. I still have never asked out a girl and that's mainly due to lack of self esteem and confidence. I don't party that often and even when i do i don't get out of my mind drunk. I just dance a lot. I never had a proper drunken new years cause the only person who has parties is Alex who is normally in Scotland for the new year. The same will probably happen this yr and I'll spent New years with my parents even though i really don't want to. I want to party.
