Aug 8th 2007 Today has sucked.

Woke up this morning to find out our tractor was stolen from our shed last night i felt sick to the stomach i went for a drive arround see if i could find it, highly unlikely I know but worth a try I guess! It brought a tear to my eye that someone could do this to my grentz business, its been reported to police etc but doubt we will see it again.

So today it been a fact or bumping up security on the shed thats been fun I guess and while doing that I been spraying my bumper so its back to normal what a fun life I leed. The weekend was better I guess… Saturday I sold my phase front bumper and drove up to Grantham with it but the people picking it up got lost :( so we was there for 3hrs (got there 1hr early) luck we was meeting at McD’s so we could buy food and stuff lol.

Sunday drove to Brackly which is Silverstone way for a 306 meet which never happened really. Got there 1hr early (pattern showing here) sat at the green man pub with amy and waited and waited lol. Then Jo (meet organiser) turned up spoke to her a little while and then Mark turned up and that was it.

waited a hr nobody else turn up… that really takes the bicuit… 14 confirmed people coming yet only 4 turn up! We went for a drive to the woods for our BBQ Amy’s mum kindly bought us some meat for our BBQ and lent us some chairs and a cool bag how cool is that? So I bought 2 portable BBQ’s some coke and stuff.

Got the the woods and Mark had to go because of his gf or something so he went :( then Matt (jo bf) turned up cattering for 4 people – no problem. Plenty to go round lol we made a good day of it even when coming home there was a Ford fest on so we followed loads of Fords home both classics and new…. that explains the Ford GT I followed up the M1 (followed it just for the sound lol)

The rest of the week… work and errm thats all I think… I was gonna blog about something else the other day but I cant remember now lol hmmm… oh well couldnt be too important I guess……

Apr 14th 2007 Testing Testing 1, 2, 3 [RANT]

I think we are back on the air, live and kicking again, yesterday I once again got the Digg Effect woo! and bandwith went sky high! So i guessed it was time to move to a new server and cheaper then what I was paying on my prior web host. I have moved to DreamHost… I did look at my mates hosting but I did the maths and this worked out to be a better deal for my needs… well more than enough.

This is now what I have got!

  • 200gb of webspace with goes up 1GB a week!
  •  2tb – Yes 2 Terrabytes of bandwth
  • Everything else is virtually unlimited.
  • $190.80 for 2yrs BUT click here to drop it to £47.80 for 2yrs!

Compare that to my old host:

  • 500mb of webspace
  • 10gb of bandwith
  • Everything else is unlimited.
  • £30 a year thats £60 for 2yrs!

Hopefully this will be faster and the FTP seems alot quicker  too, Been busy working on my dedicated webdesign site and online portfolio but cant decide on a design yet. Development aint going too bad been putting some content on there and doing that. I’ve kinda missed shelly but i cba with it anymore just fed up of everything really.

Aparently slagging people off when I have’nt ok maybe moaned a little but don’t we all do that? be completely honest don’t you moan about some people you mean no harm but you just need to get it off your chest.  its comming to the point I cba to come to college anymore there always some sh*t and i get the blame for it.

I really don’t wanna do next yrs course because the ways things are i’m lost in life with no real idea what to do anymore. i’m fed up living in this country too my cars too expensive yet I have to keep it because its in dads name I have TW*T wrote on my windows of my car and a d*ck on the back window f*cking childish!

i’m just begining to f*ck my life it isn’t worth it anymore because the way people are with me I AM MISUNDERSTOOD most of the time people take things I say WAY to seriously, where a joke gets turned arround into a nasty comment I HATE IT because I didnt intend it to be like that and it f*cking drives me wild with anger because I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE TWIST SH*T ROUND!

Fine if you don’t like me stay away, don’t bother me and I won’t bother you, i’m seriously f*cked of with this childish bullsh*t its doing my head in because all I wanted to do when I started college was come here f*cking leanr something then p*ss off out of the country forever! This country has f*ck all to offer to the english people apart from benifits from taxpayers money.

Whats the point in working? we are only paying the lazy b*stards that cant get off there arse and get a job… harsh… ok I know myself its hard to get a job BUT AT LEAST F*CKING TRY! ARGGHH. FUCK I HATE MY LIFE.

- Tom…

PS: Might not come back to college!

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 :)

Mar 30th 2007 Who needs religion? [Long Read]

Religion has always been a strong subject wars start over it and some people just get far to obessed with it. Even though I am a christian I don’t follow it or really care about it either… I think today most young people are Atheists this way we don’t have to deal with the ammount of sh*t each religion gives out.

Another thing that really pisses me off is religions Jehovahs witnesses these people piss me off because they come door to door trying to “sell” the religion to people. i’ve had to deal with one or 2 and all i do is waste there time, I let them talk for then say no some poeple just slam the door or throw rocks at them.

Muslims – The religion everone is scared about, you say something wrong about it and your bound to get stabbed and/or killed, this is insan, why would anyone get so screwed up on this junk to go out and kill another human being its stupid I dont understand why anyone would go and do that?

Cant forget the Americian version of christianity either! I have nothing against gay people but in some states its like “oh if your gay your going to hell blah blah blah” fine believe that just because its not in the bible doesn’t mean there going to “hell” the americians are so f*cked up with some of there stuff ok least they dont go out killing each other like the muslims.

So what do I think of religion?

I think its a load of toss, so many theorys that all contradict themselves and all it causes is trouble.Science VS Faith

Click to make image bigger, this image makes more sense then any religion itself!

Browsing digg today i came across this story

“A student has been suspended from school in America for coming to class dressed as a pirate. But the disciplinary action has provoked controversy – because the student says that the ban violates his rights, as the pirate costume is part of his religion. Bryan Killian says that he follows the Pastafarian religion…”

yes theres a religion where people dress up as pirates and guess what they worship… A Flyng Spaghetti Monster – seriously look at the link!

Thats enough religion for today!

As I said last week I was sick on my phone from a night out clubbin with pete and katie, now i managed to bring my phone back from the dead abit of hacking and ripping bits apart i managed to get the PCB out and started hooking it upto USB getting it to turn on with i did in the end then backed up all my phones contacts etc and this is the remains of it…

[fa:p:id=439639862,j=l,s=s,l=p]

I’ve had a interesting week trying to get my new phone I went to Car Phone Warehouse a looked at some phone and decided to get the Sony Ericsson W810i (because I still got the accessories from my old phone and a 2gb memory card) Well anyways I said the to the bloke I wanted to keep my number cuz i’ve had it over 3 years.

He enters all this into the computer and messes up so he tries again then asks for my card.. so igive himmy card and the computer tells him to ring natwest or something so he does and they tll him the natwest payment systems down… great! So i run over to natwest and draw money and pay by cash.

They go get the phone… open the box… its gone.. theres no phone!! so they setup a order for a new phone for the next day… I go in the next day… sorry the computer system is down so come back tomorrow, I go in wednesday morning nothing so then I thought i’d go later in the day and then they ang up to tell me its in just as we are about to set off lol.

I went to pick it up and a swear to god i was only in that shop 15 seconds and I was out again with my phone :) so yeah its a pretty decent phone very similar to my K750i but its alot faster!

W810i

I Might be doing the K750i W810i hybrid mod where I use my K750i rear cover and stick it on my W810i so it covers up the camera lol.

Anyways thats all for now thanks for reading!

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!
