Apr 6th 2007 I’ve lost my angel

Me and shelly have broke up, she said that it wasn’t working out and she didnt feel hapy again… typical so thats it… no more some of my mates knew I had a idea something was up with her because she has neglected me all week and I feel a little used too because i taxi’d her and a mate from coningsby to donnington last saturday and then went round hers sunday to fix her pc *sigh* oh well!

yesterday was a pretty sh*tty day at college too it was really pissing me off i’m glad i’ve got 2 weeks off to just chill out and recharge my batteries because i’ve felt so run down and find out shelly wanted to end it really didnt help, damn my stupidity. Wednesday was interesting at college… Well i was in lesson wen mick walked in a and kinda shouted out “TOM PARKER” I thought i was in trouble (as i do) then he asked me to come to the front so I did… and he gave me this easter egg for 100% attendence this term which i was pretty happy about, I shared the egg with my mates :)

heres a bad picture of me shaking hand with mick and the egg itself! lol!

I don’t know if I mentioned it in the last post but my car has being playing up this time with the plip on my key it wont unlock or lock… I wednesday me, marshall and storer took a trip upto peugeot to see what they could do… at first the bloke got my car wrong eventually after getting the chasis number they found my car on the computer… aparently it is the key so a new one has been ordered heres the painful part:

  • Price of the plip/key – £52
  • Labour £32
  • Unknown number entered into the calculator… 17.5 (guessing thats VAT)

Final price… £99.98, £100 to get the car sorted… so its going in this wednesday (11th) to have it sorted out… bless it oh well I guess I need these things sorted. i guess thats all really hopefully going to be opening SiteDesignr (new site) this easter hol i’ve been making progress on it :)

Feb 17th 2007 White Card [Long Read]

I got my first ever white card this week, go me! What for? For saying the word bloody lol! Yes that’s right people last years voted Best Academic Performance Award guy on white card for doing his work! Well I guess what I did was wrong but I feel that being put on a white card for what I did was completely wrong and maybe just maybe because of last weeks rant about Business?

So there I was it started off a normal day in biz and I actually started work – yes I actually did some work for once! And well I can sometimes talk for a whole lesson and not get any work done but that day I got into doing this assignment and I was getting along fine! The lecturer was talking but I was doing my work (not making any noise, when others was).

So the lecturer interrupted me from my work and well without thinking I kind of shouted “I’m trying to do my bloody assignment” now personally I didn’t mean this to be in anyway offensive I was just pissed doff at the fact that I was doing some work and I got interrupted. This kind of kicked thing off for the whole day!

They run off to go tell tale to my tutor who puts me on a white card (totally over the top) Everyone agrees this was over the top and I have been treated unfairly too, I think if they really wanted to kind of tell me to shut up swear back at me other members of staff do! nah white card, that really did piss me off.

So I walked in class with this white card and up comes my temper now I walked out of the class for the reason of that if I didn’t I would of probably caused a lot of damage so I did a U turn out of the room and went straight downstairs to go calm down with a councillor, 15 minutes or so and I’d calmed down.

The councillor took me back upstairs to say sorry and I did say sorry to the biz lecturer but my tutor? No I just starred at him lucky I can actually control my anger really isn’t it?  I was anger at the fact of the PETTINESS of this white card, which I ant really taken any notice of I’ve been good doing my work as I do having a laugh every so often.

I bet if you read that white card it will probably have good stuff on it because I’m a good student, I must reliable in some way because I’m a student rep and I’m helpful too like Thursday I and 3 others moved a room about for a open evening or something I am not a bad student! So I don’t deserve this card!

And even knows if I don’t agree with something I will moan like hell about it, So this is the attitude I’ve taken… They put me on white card (some kind of way for monitor me like big brother) I will just ignore it and do my work, deal with it I get to my lessons on time 99% of the time with pretty good attendance, and handing in most of my assignments in on time (business is a exception to that because I didn’t understand it).

Putting me on these kind of things are not going to help in fact I was actually just planning not to come in and lose my EMA and attendance but no why should I do that? I’ll just do it how I normally do it because I’m still getting the work done and being there on time too! So yeah that’s my rant about the white card! Its not going to change anything I’m still going to do my work and attend college too, all it does is just piss me off and disrupt me!

Now Wednesday was a very important day! Valentines Day  A lot of things to do Woke up early went up town to draw money then came back put in £20 in the tank cleaned inside and outside the car and changed my near the legal limit tire for my spare steelie until I get it sorted out (probably next week).

So did that but I couldn’t get the nuts undone gdad came out to have a go and with jumping on the hex kind of thing the bolts started to come undone, the wheel was stuck on so I had to kick it until it came off! anyways swapped them round and did them back up the hex bent pretty badly that’s French stuff for ya!

So gdad gave me this strong ENGLISH (London taxi) one :) which I popped under my back seat this is were problems arose, because while putting it there I lodged a cable (my earth cable for my sub but I didn’t know it). So I went to work at 2 with no problems finished at 4.30 then drove to Boston!

As I was driving the electronics (mostly radio and brakes) was coming on and off when this happened the ABS kicked in! ignored it and carried on to Boston picked up Shelly and drove home… it didn’t do it at all then! got home and me n Shelly spent some time together then got read to take Shelly out!

So we drove to Spalding no problems! Got to the restaurant (The Mermaid) and got our table which I booked for about a week in advance and they had a special menu which was 2 courses for £19.95 not bad so we chose what we wanted and that was that.

The meal was very nice but they canned me on the drinks me thinks! Shelly enjoyed herself and then we went home, the car played up like mad all the way back getting worse as I was coming back then as I turned into the yard… BOOM! Total Black out! The car was dead nothing at all.

Lifted up the bonnet and took off the plus and popped it back on and there was a spark from my + to the sub that means bad earth so I dc all that and it’s been fine since! Shelly really enjoyed being round here and I asked her out :)

Today I have done some overtime at work for over 3 hrs every little helps ;) cleaning windows that’s all I started at 9 and didn’t get home till about 12.30 lol and now I have a week off college excellent!

That’s all really! Got a video you as normal! Basically a group of chav’s go to rob a shop with… glow sticks its all downhill from there – Enjoy!

Feb 10th 2007 Windows Vista & College Rants

Well i’ve been using the lates Operating System from microsoft for about a week or so and well its not really that go its unstable and it lags like hell there are good points like the new games i invented like “How many processes can I end till vista crashes” that answer is 9 then nothing starts up again till you reboot.

I mean I know this is a new operating system with oh so shiny things on it but its jus a polished, overpriced version of XP with a sidebar which I aint really found a use for yet. I do however remember the problems XP had when it first came out so I can’t really speak just yet right now I think i’ll be resigning from Vista and going back to XP – For now.

Don’t get me wrong I like vista but its not very good for a main stream operating system right now. I aint really done alot this week yesterday i when off roading, there was this lorry stuck in the middle of the road on both sides actaully i’ll just show you this picture is should be better to understand.
Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us

So to explain this abit better basically the other side was going round this lorry is a “D” shaped yard my side had nowhere to go so I went on the grass lol! The weather was terrible though constant rain all the way home and to work, then came the wind I could hear it at work lol. Work is going fine I aint really been doing alot just cleaning lol.

College is going ok business being the most annoying subject (so glad I didn’t do business studys) but i think getting it back from other peoples feedback and my personal feedback to is that, the tutor treats us like school children, notice none of the other members of staff have a problem, because they treat us like adults they have a joke with us and talk to us.

Business doesn’t and they dont have any control ove rthe class, the whole class walks over her because they simply have no control, they don’t know how to control the class either, it doesn’t help with treating us like kids either because that just makes us even worse. The tutor doesn;t listen either people witnessed this when I tried to tell them that it was the other side causing trouble not us.

Our side of the class ALWAYS gets the blame and there we are sitting down paper infront ready to take notes then we get told off, sorry but just doing that makes us wanna piss about face it every student hates theory lessons unless theres some fun or laugher added into it, business lessons you get known of that instead treated like kids.

Then because that tutor cant control the class they run off crying to someone higher and tells them a load of bull, the one that pissed me off was where “we” aparently asked for notes on the portal,Well i only asked for the assignment and record sheet which eventually was put on the portal but because of that delay because I lost the assignment brief – sorry we are only human, humans lose things.

I enjoy most of the subjects in my course but business (and I think alot of people will agree here) I hate. And thats soley because of the tutor and the attitude with the students, there was one lesson when I got into the lesson and that was with the spider diagrams and stuff thats called “Interaction” it was group work and i found it interesting.

I’m expecting to fail my biz assigmment because i didn’t understand it and that i didn’t get much sense out of the tutor either. Aparent from that everything is going fine, im going out on Valintines Night with shelly, taking her out for a meal (isn’t driving great). Wait I have another rant People who think getting there EMA back signed after a week or even 2 weeks i can think of serveral people in our class that do it, and because of that members of staff are now talking about not back signing it for like a day.

I sometimes forget my ema for maybe a day then bring it in and get it back signed for that day but members of staff seem to get pissed off with it so I think they are gonna stop doing it, I hope not but i can see why they do it cause of people that abuse that privilage. LSU is going fine and this new guy is so much better then the person before, this guy actaully sits down and explain how to do it, im actaully remembering things too!

I think thats all for now I have a video too! (unintentional swearing involved)

Jan 10th 2007 Shopping for ICE

Well since I have got my new headunit I guess its time to get some bass :D everyone knows i’m picky on what I get for my car and i’m always out looking for hours for the very best deal. I joined some forums and tried to find out some more information.. I guess i’m getting there and the clear message is… your not gonna get anything for £100.. thats if its custom bulit – great!

So i’ve been on ebay and loads of online shops i found quite a few deals for under £100 with the sub, amp and wiring kit but then another thing thats been sitting in my mind came up… will my car handle it on the forums they said anything under 800w will be fine, another thing is what size sub… 10″ 12″ or 15″ lol forget the 15″ too expensive but how do I decide on a 12″ or 10″ ?

Its seems the views are split, one forum likes 10’s and the other likes 12’s I was originally looking for a 12″ because I thought the 10″ looked too small… lol but if its the right wattage it gives out alot of “punch” and does lower frequencies. But then the other forum are supporting 12″ and saying they give out more bass are will do low freqencies too…

Looking arround on ebay its true… the 10″ are more expensive and i’m guessing this is because there better so I started putting in some bids. I’ve bidded on a FLI Trap 10 twin thats 1600w together and I could power them with a cheap 500w amp and that wouldn’t cause any trouble either but that would mean buying wiring kit etc.

Then theres loads of 12″ kits your can get passive (powered with external amp) or active (powered by bulit in amp) passive is what I want. Active would work but they done have very good amps eg 1000w sub with bulit in amp 300w… its abit… yeah. these are the kits i’ve been looking into:

12″ deals

10″ deals

so yeah not sure what to do right now I guess i’ll just wait and see with my bids on ebay if I win anything then i’ll go from there if not i’ll go with one of these… if anyone knows of any other good deals then post and comment or contact me :) I guess thats it really college is going good had a new learning support person yesterday he seems pretty cool and i can talk to him etc so i’m happy with that.

If anyone likes trance (better then that clubland 10 sh*t – complete toss) I found this site with does a 3hr podcast of free trance non-stop on every tuesday aka Trance-Tuesday :Dhttp://tranceportal.org

That plus this one too http://www.djaddison.com your sorted for 5hrs a week :D I just stick them on my ipod and listen to them in the car… easier to listen to with a good beat :)

I guess thats all really nothing else has happened, well it has but i’d like to keep that quite for now :)

Jan 1st 2007 [RANT] Happy New Year!

Happy new year everyone hope you all had a good time, i personally just stopped in and got pissed with my brother at the end of the day its just another year whats the big deal? Just an excuse to get pissed and I don’t really drink that much anyways. I told Alex last night that i thought it was best we get to know each other abit more before/if we get together for some reason I just don’t feel right like all the other times what the hell is wrong with me?

I really liked her from the start but then it just grew… cold?! i never knew what to say to her and she hardly speaks either so that didn’t help in the end we had the same convo as the previous day or didn’t talk at all so I had to do something I was pretty upset that I had to tell her this but something had to be said else it would of just got worse. Of course these days you can’t do anything without anyone sticking there nose init and saying some crap for there own personal (sad) amusement.

Take this for example:

“well i erd u onli liked er cuz u wanted t get closer t me n ****”

I aint getting onto nobody but that I will claim as the best bullsh*t for 2007 whoever said it… well you could of at least say something that could possibly been belived geez. if you have a problem with me you come see me not go making up childish rumours like that lol I really can’t be bothered with it.

So thats the first piece of news and that happened while we are not even at college whats it gonna be like when we get back? “Tom goes out with Alex and cheats on her by sleeping with a dead cat” well the way people beleive things that really wouldn’t suprise me. Yeah i’m pissed off if you can’t tell.

And all of that happened in a matter of what 2 or 3 days? imagine what week of this could be like. Anyways moving on… welcome to January 2007 and this year will go fast just like 2006 before you know it, it will be 2008… damn.

Well we all go back on Thursday back to college, I can’t be bothered to get the bus anymore nobody talks anymore… just remembered I got one more assigment to do… if i ever meet that bloke who thought the students want more smaller assignments i’ll soon give him my piece of mind.

But I think it be nice to get back to college away from here ok its not too bad but its just really boring I need a laugh (then I wouldn’t be ranting as much) now that I think about it maybe what i said to alex was a mistake i kinda miss her right now… so guess thats my well week or couple of days…it was so nice to see our stuck up side of the family go… they didn’t even say bye to me lol.

We went to PC World today to take a printer back and get some advice I have been trying to tell my grentz since christmas day well.. I can;t complain gdad bought me some earphones :) i guess its my job to buy this “Compact Flash” card off the internet now gives me something to do I guess…

thats all for now I leave you with a video… of CRAZY Arab drifting
