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 20th 2007 I have a job!

I HAVE A JOB! Yes its true its working in a power station cleaning offices pays not too bad £5.75 a hour for 2hrs every night the people are really nice so far so i feel I will enjoy it :) I start monday, cant wait really it be nice to get out lol.
If you live in the UK you will know it was VERY VERY windy like gale force wind and rain, and who drove to college init? Me yes silly me i really should of got the bus that day but well a bus is more prone to blow over so I went out in it. Cars, vans, and loads of lorries scattered about in trees, lamp posts and dykes.

3 lorries blown over just along the A16 then theres the rain… and lots of it some roads in boston was just flooded water upto 5 inchs deep… in some parts then there was part of the college’s roof tiles flying off, amazing to watch but also very dangerous. Thats all really aout the weather now the snow is gonna come apparently!

Anyways I have a new life rule… NEVER drink and go on eBay… you end up buying things which… to be perfectly honest you won’t want when your sober… for example a 400w Vibe subwoofer… I aint got the car fully wired up yet to test what it sounds like… my guess it what its gonna sound sh*t!

Tomorrow will be fun because i’ll be fitting the power cable to the battery then into the car and into the boot… loads of fun! And just now I got this really random email which was really interesting to read! Aparently theres a guy at my college who come accross my website and have a browse arround, he has a 306 and has a dint in the same place as me… wierd aye?

This guy has lived in a different country called france… where as i lived in spain… i’ve never been to france maybe one day! Hope you recieved my email back mate the postmaster said know to your main email addy :(

Anyways i’ll post in the week when i’m in the right mood to blog… I started writing this at 6pm and its now 11.57… oops! Oh and I just noticed i been blog for… 4yrs :| thats just…. shocking!

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

Dec 25th 2006 Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

Seems just like last year when I was typing up 2005’s christmas post, and we even got snow last year too!
Hope your all having a great day, I am! I got this wicked new 19 inch widescreen LCD monitor for my hackintosh, but i looks better on windows then is does on mac… i think it needs to be tweaked… then I got some money errrm an Apple keyboard that brings my total Apple products owned upto 3 lol!

My grentz brought me the brush thing that you attach to the hose pipe to wash my car… but im abit worried since it feels like it migt scratch the paintwork… hmmm… They also bought me a mirror which was nice and a power surge protector… oh and ofcourse I got some socks lol, then some shower gel and stuff :)

BUT theres a change this year… my grentz have there stuck up side of the family over… these people have had something against me and my parents since we moved to spain as if I am the devils child (maybe ;) ) but seriously what on earth did i do wrong I have no idea! Anyways they came over last night and we sat round the table joe went to work leaving me alone, i tried all the time I was round the table to make conversation but they just didnt wanna know, i even said hello, and I didn’t get a reply… hmmm.

Oh well so I went upstairs and lived up there for the night until they pissed off back up the travelodge, then I went downstairs. Christmas Day come round yay! i laid in bed till 10am until i was woken up by my brother jumping on me (urgh) so i got up I went downstairs to say merry christmas to everyone individually… the grentz said merry christmas back but these two people god neither of them even said merry christmas… so i was pretty annoyed.

So me and joe sat in the kicten then she blurted out to her husband “When are we going home?!” what the hell you only just got here, I thought. Anyways we got all arranged and got the presents dished out, they never said a word to me or joe, so yeah they was being a**holes. funny thing is 30 minutes in she asks “Who are they??” Ok… so you have no idea who me and joe are… I give up!

Anyways after we got all presents open I took mine upstairs and then only come down when it was dinner after that i’ve lived up here having a good old drink, setting up my monitor etc. So yeah christmas has been alright, just wish our guests would actaully talk to me and joe!

Mum rang up just before dinner had a good talk to her which was nice… and I rang up my uncle last night to thank him for the christmas money he had posted so all in all its been good. The new theme is complete! and will be launched on 27th December I will post on that day too so if your subscribed then you will be notified :)

i’ved even got a YouTube video for you all this week!

Maybe its my simple mind but I found that funny lol!
