I love my nana i really do but sometimes she just really does my head in and shes being all wierd and crazy again. Yesterday the phone rang and I picked it up and took it downstairs to them bloew me i got told off for picking the phone up too fast! next time I won’t even bother answering if thats the case.

A few days ago I was on grentz pc and my nan comes upstairs you know its her because she stamps her feet for some reason anyways so she coems upstairs and says “Where did that chair come from” Shocked, I replied with “Well that chairs actaully been here for 4 years” And it had its never moved…

Shes hiding my clothes again, which takes the piss it really does as there my new ones and I am running out stupid control freak sooner I move out the better least I know my clothes won’t dispear and then denies to joe that she doesn’t hide them when she admits to me that she hides joes

Grrr makes me so mad sometimes but I love her lol.

Warning this first half is about computers and stuff but its a big chunk of my life.

For 8yrs solid i’ve been a die-hard Microsoft fanboy starting off as a total newb in 1998, I know near enough every windows operating system like the back of my hand and I still and probably always will. I’ve always been against other operating systems such as linux and Mac OS X, but recently that has changed. After messing about trying to troubleshoots problems and crashing losing work that takes hours to do i’d had enough.

Some of my MSN contact knew how stressed I was from losing my work and I decided to install a linux Distro I tried the popular ubuntu distro and I really liked it but… I couldn’t and wouldn’t use the GIMP I needed my photoshop I tried using WINE alsorts trying to get it to work MSN was another one theres pretty of great clients out the but theres only a handful which has webcam viewing/sending and this was vital.

I kept coming and goingback to Ubuntu but them 2 things was stopping me from converting. I went back to windows then I got this crazy idea what about a intel mac mini? Only problem I can’t afford it so I had to sell something… I sold my pride and joy this might seem abit sad but my PC was my baby I built it about a year or two ago and now it had come to the time to sell it.

I put it and some other bits on ebay and my PC on a forum too and I manged to sell it they came round to pick it up yesterday the same night I went on ebay to find a PC that will support Mac OS X being installed on it (ok Ben and Semaja2 didn’t agree but they will get over it :P) hmmm well the system specs seemed pretty good:

Celeron D325 2.53GHZ
768MB 533MHZ DDR 2 Ram
Intel D915GUX Motherboard
- Intel 915 chipset
- Intel® Core™2 Extreme / Core™2 Duo Ready
- Dual-Core CPU Support
- Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 900
- DDR2 667/533/400
- 64-bit CPU support
-120GB IDE Hard Drive
–Pioneer DVR111 DVD Burner DVD RW Drive

all that for £230 inc p&p and it would run Mac OS X perfectly.

The Mac Intel Mini I wanted was:

1.5GHz Intel Core Solo processor
512MB memory (667MHz DDR2 SDRAM)
60GB Serial ATA hard drive
Combo drive (DVD-ROM/CD-RW)
Built-in AirPort Extreme and Bluetooth 2.0
Apple Remote

I think personally all your paying with apples hardware is for the logo, thats my honest opinion i’m getting such a better spec for alot less so i did that… hey if it dont work out I can soon sell it and buy a proper mac! I so have myself a new machine it comes preinstalled with Tiger too.

So whats it really… Yesterday I went to Peterboro when shopping for college clothes and stuff very stressful thing really all I had to keep me sane was txting Leanne… hmmm Leanne I can’t say too much about that matter really she’s going on holiday I really wanna say more tell the world but I can’t and i’ve probably f**ked that up but as the caring person I am i keep on going caring and loving how ever much I could get hurt I still do it.

Thats it not a very interesting post I guess but its an update :/ can’t wait to go back to college to see my mates again my interview date is on 31st august I hope everything goes well

I sit here and I think to myself how are kids our age supposed to get a job when half the jobs either are taken up by foreigners or you need one years experience. I am currently in a situation where I can’t get a job unless I have a car, ok I am lucky my grandparents are paying for lessons but what about them people who can’t afford £20/40 a week to learn a skill which is essential in our lives.

On 30th August i’ll be doing my second driving test, hopefully i’ll pass too. But oh no life isn;t as easy as that no no there having strikes on random days what if the strike falls on my test date? Oh well it be another fricking month till my test! So things aint going too well and with other things ie: love life and family life that just adds to everything.

Got a letter today from Boston College woo interview as i read the letter my face just dropped from happy to annoyed. My interview date and driving test date fall on the same day. So today i typed out a email saying that I cant goto the interview on that day now I am awaiting a reply.

You know i really can’t wait till I get back to college for all number of reasons but the main one is to see my friends, leanne and just to get away from home! Everthing is just getting to me and I need someone close to talk to i donlt know who that person is anymore, ok wells theres Rich brilliant mate so i guess i have someone who understands.

Yesterday I did something so stupid but it felt so right at the time if only i’d waited see thats my trouble I don;t wait I just do it. I forgot the consequences then after it all happened it hit me back in my face.. ouch. It was like walking into a lamp post and falling to the ground.

Now i’m thinking to myself was it a stupid idea to argue with Jayne the other week one side is saying well sure it had to be said the others like well… now you have made it arkward between the 2 families but to be honest i’m sick of the ass kissing that goes on. My nan just constantly windges that gets very annoying.

Just hope I pass my test then i’ll jus never be at home i’ll be out somewhere near boston away from this evil area. and thats it really I hope things just get better…

Posted another video this one is a snippet from a Lee Evans show

And theres about 18 videos in my playlist here

Enjoy

Spain wasn't that good I can't remember much else but it sucked. I was gonna stop but my dad got all sh*tty over it he was sh*tty all the time. So theres Spain out of the way, England flight was delayed by 1 hour that wasnt too good. Theres been alot on my mind which I really must get out.

The first thing is my dad really has changed for the worst, I won't go into details but it hurt me in a way that i've been been hurt so much to see him in a state like that. Really is hard hitting like me and my bro have both agreed on that we both feel sorry for mum.

Thats one thing out of that way without saying too much the second really did make me angry. Someone I have respected for years has lost my respect… My Aunty Jayne, she isn't my real aunty i've just been brought up that way to call her that. She is infact a close family friend.

So what did she do to upset me? Well she didn't just upset me she also upset my brother and my mum. Well I guess I better say what was said well basically she went to spain with my brother went to my rents house and said to my mum "oh your a bad mother" and also offended my brother my dad of course didn't stand up for my mum.

They was only in spain for 2 weeks and she come back and started feeding me all this bullsh*t too but I wasn't having it. So after that my mum rang me up crying and I couldnt do nothing about it until I got to spain well I got to spain and got mums side of the story and my original plan was to use Jayne for my free driving lessons and then after i've passed etc throw everything at her… (this is why its a bad idea to be on my wrong side).

But no I came back and I asked for my car back (no i stil had not got my car back) so she came round with my car and log book EXCELLENT!  I thought tomyself well she holds nothing against me now so I gotmmybrother down and we had a bloody good arguement for what she said to my mum and what she said to my brother.

I left with "Oh thanks for my car" and walked up stairs.

Thats about it really had to fix a roof the other day that involved abit of hard work taking th old one off then i went to job centre nobody wanted me though lol thats all
