Dec 8th 2006 Too much work!

Help were being over worked at college 98% of us are falling behind because of this bloke who think he knows what the student really want got his way – Multiple assigmments, this means breaking the assigments in 3 or more smaller assignments thus we fall behind ALOT easier.

Yeah including me… yes I am fallin behind I dont know whats gotta be in out whats been reffered and i’m normally pretty organised but this setup is just messing things up… so as a student rep guy would do… we did something about it! First a poling vote was put on on the colleges intranet, now we have done a petition to get these stupid small assigmments slapped into 1 big one why makes thing alot easier to manage.

This pettion was pretty simple it had there name, signature tick yes for 1 big assignment and no for… loads of them then comments… the outcome was basically only 2 people disagreed (smart ass’s :P ) and the rest of the class well aid yes they wanted 1 big assigment. Today I just sat in “SAD” head down… lost no idea what I could do so i decided the best I could do was setup some kinda speadsheet to try and oranise the mess this guy has made for us all – t*t!

Moving on christmas is gonna be here soon… great and as every christmas i’ll feel down because well christmas is a family time… apart from my family isn’t exactly a family… mum and dad will be in spain sure i’ll have the grentz thats cool but my parents *sigh* and well i have no idea when i’ll see them so thats gonna be on my mind for awhile…

College is ok just this work which is bugging me right now.. we got a new timetable no real problems with it just yet. Home is ok nans not really p*ssed me off for a while so thats alright. Love life? don’t go there…

Dec 2nd 2006 Christmas Approaches

Yes guys it coming to that time of the year again and tomwrote.info has got its Christmas decorations upto celebrate the best time of each year, sadly our govement is playing down Christmas all over the country because of the muslims getting offended, b*ll*cks to them.

While where on the subject of ranting about the govement, bastards have decided to try and put a pay-as-you-go road tax kinda thing into our cars which we would have to pay to be fitted costing over £200.

It was stated on the news yesterday morning (27th November 2006) one of the reasons this proposal has been suggested was to raise money for possible road building and improvements to existing roads. It should be noted: all the money currently collected by the DVLA for road fund licences, only 23% – 24% is actually spent on road building and improvements!

On top of this massive increase in tax, you will be tracked. Somebody will know where you are at all times. They will also know how fast you have been going, so even if you accidentally creep over a speed limit you can expect an NIP with your monthly bill.

The gov have got a petition on there website to try stop this from getting passed its madness… so if you got a car then click this link http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/traveltax and try and stop them fat cats from getting even more money to run arround there jags and jets. B*stards – Put proper details in else it might not count.

College is going great loving it still and got a shock the other night at parents evening… I’m doing better then what I thought I was going which was great! We start our new time table monday (yes i’m in on mondays) and we have got Wednesdays off again like last year… Which I found was better because it gave you a break throughout the week.

My driving is going great still looking for work i’ve applied at so many places but getting no feedback is kinda depressing now :( Currys seemed really interested in me and I spoke to a man called mark really nice guy took all my details and i filled in my application form.. and i’ve heard nothing from them.. :(

Spoiler has turned up and i been priming and painting that, this is what it looks like right now:

Not bad if I don;t say myself!

Foxy brought this rather dusty computer round to be fixed so I been fixing that, took that back today.. and thats about all thats happened… last week was catch up week and we got a little bit of work done but me and rich find it easier to do our work like assignments and stuff at home… guess we can actually consintrate that way.

Wednesday night there was a car accident just up the road from me and the lad driving it died he was only 17 one minute you can be here then next your not. R.I.P Josh I didn’t know you but my mum knows your dad and I know your ex i’m related to her, take care chels.

I think thats all for now, take care all.

PS: No video this week nothing decent has been found this week. Sorry.

Nov 20th 2006 Bought a new phone

First of all do not buy a Nokia 6600, they are crap… possibly the worse phone i’ve had for a long time… it takes a good 5 seconds to load out txts and 3 minutes to start up… damn i hated that phone.. then it refused to startup and then the speaker went on it so I guess it was time to get a new phone, when mum was over she give me and my brother £100 to go get new phones so I have bought the Sony Erricsson K750i.

phone

I no not the latest of phones but its still pretty modern… expandable memory, bluetooth, 2 megapixel camera… yeah thats all I need really so I drove up Boston today met up with Rich and Tev went up town , walked to o2 shop nand they was sold out… gutted so went to Phone4u, and they had one in stock.. BUT there was a catch.. you had to top up £10 to activate it… yeah I know bullsh*t.. I said I had a sim already but they wouldnt take that for an answer… BAH!

Oh well leeast I got a better phone lol, FINALLY got my spoiler too!

306 spoiler

I got this small standard for serveral reason, I didnt want nothing over the top (chavvy) , nothing to effect the insurance either… So i got a standard (very rare) phase 3 spoiler its took me months to get hold of one and the person I bought it off is even giving me a free can of paint for me car… how good!

Speaking about my car… SOME TW*T dented my back door either at college or petrol station heres a picture of it
[photopress:DSCF0021.JPG,thumb,pp_image]
As you can imagine I was NOT happy about it at all and I didnt notice it until i got home either, I started to T-Cut the paint off which did a very good job then tried to get the dent to pop out and it did ok not fully but enough so it didnt look too bad.. theres a slight crease on the contour though :(

College is going alright been getting alot of assignments there giving us an exam soon (URGH) I hate exams… i’m bound to fail them :( Went to see Borat saturday night with amy but nothing happened.. I think we are better off as mates. So i’m still single but still got my rules inforce:

  • No going back with ex’s – ever.
  • No emailing random girls… lesson well learnt.
  • No going out with close girl mates.

Tonight I plan to well… errrm I gotta tidy my room and maybe get my soft dev assignment sorted… I hate test logs… VB6 was so much better! Back to college tomorrow for yet another wonderful week xD. I guess thats it really… *thinks* Oh yeah a video… hmmm lets see what i’ve got this week…

This was off Jerry Springer its a Midget fight… but the guy in red just owns the other one lol!

Thats all folks.

Nov 15th 2006 My confidence has been knocked

Alot of people know me.. i’m a pretty outgoing.. open… caring…loving.. sensitive… funny? person..load of confidence, I can stand up infront of people like the whole class talk to them most of the time without a problem but when it comes to my love life its a little different and I just feel really confused right now.

its been well over 6 months since me and shelly broke up and when I found ****** I thought it was gonna be a new start for me… she lives closer to me… she goes to my college… perfect. When I first met ****** she was still with her bf Tom.. who is a dick… or so she made out to me that he is.

What can I say we met up while she was still going out with him and we “got along” pretty well I then spent like 2 months with her flirting and meeting up while they was together it felt so right yet it was so wrong.. I was there when he had “done stuff” to her and all that, they eventually broke up.

She ignored me after that… I was gutted she went with a guy called ben who she said was fat.. i’d never met the guy so i didnt know but anyways that didnt work out so i felt I was second best when she come running back to me I was stupid enough to go back to her really but I did. She stopped round one friday night one thing let to another and well thats it really..

The next day she felt I had forced her into doing that.. People who know me pretty well would know I am not like that at all and it ddint go very far after that.. after all it wasn’t true people see straight through what she was saying because well she had basically said similar things about not just tom but all her other ex’s.

So what did I do? I felt sorry for her and decided to accept a lie and try and make up with her… possible one of the stupidist things i’ve done in a long time and I just ended up getting hurt even more when i relised she’d come off my friends list on bebo and was flirting with tom on the comments bit…

So where did that lead me? well i made friends with shelly and I tried to find someone new… or something I replaced her with a iPod nano 2 lol which was actually cheaper to run lol. ****** is slagging me off? Why I have no idea but if she carries on we will do it back, i’ve had enough of it.

Anyways that was yesterdays rant todays is… A road toll.. but with a difference… we would have to have a stupid little black box which charges use on the road we go on… right and as if petrol wasnt expensive already?And I quote from BBC’s website:

The draft bill seeks to give councils more power to implement their own trials, while ensuring they fit with surrounding schemes.

If the trials are successful, a national scheme could be investigated – with drivers possibly paying £1.34 a mile to drive on the busiest roads at rush hour. Black boxes in cars could work out how far they travel on toll roads.

They really couldn’t give a f**k about people that live in the country side its all about the city the fucking wonderful city of London(istan) Sorry this really did piss me off when I read this on the net today… f**k you tony blair we already knew you a the biggest tw@ in this country but…making yourself even bigger is not gonna make us like you, ever!

Ok I think thats it really… driving to college tomorow good luck to our footie team we will be there supporting you guys!

Nov 8th 2006 Finally an Update!

Guys first of all I am really sorry for no updates for over a fortnight! i’ve been pretty busy.. mostly going out from mini cruze’s round Long Sutton and looking for a Job… A JOB!?! Woah.. Yeah I know.. I found out very quickly that to run a 1.8 you need money… thats means getting a job…

Ok so I’ve been round the shops in Boston first HMV they gave me a form.. but it was too… advanced to fill it in.. out of my depth like so I decided to look for somewhere.. errm easier and right up my street.. PC World.. I’ve been there loads of times and theres been time when i’ve wanted to correct and employee when they have said something wrong too.

So I got my CV all updated with my new qualifications.. which I must say are pretty good (the new ones that is) got all the form sorted handed it in.. I really hope I get called up for an interview because I feel with my current knoweledge I know quite alot then most people.

Car is driving about great… love it… but it drinks petrol…like most cars lol. anyways thats a pretty small update I aint really got much else to say…
