Oct 24th 2006 Passed driving test! [Part 2]

This is Part 2 if you missed Part 1 read it here :)

Alright Where was I Friday… well Friday I wanted off because I aint actaully been able to spend one day alone with my mum which quite honestly I wanted to talk to mum about stuff, girls mostly but oh well. Friday we basically needed more time to finsh our NCFE off so they gave us a hour or 2 down the lib I managed to get alot of work done too.

We then had to goto a few lessons and do well… work lol all the other said how nice and quite it had been without us lol I see shelly in her breaks and stuff then we did NCFE in the afternoon.. after awhile cross referencing I managed to get EVERYTHING sorted complete done.. *party*

Said bye to everyone and went to spend some time with Shelly (what a suprise) I mean i’m not gonna get to see her for a week :( so that was Friday. Friday night I drove upto Ruskington nobody seems to know where that is so heres a google map - yeah.. nice place.

We went to see some friends who have a place next to my mum and dads place in spain we had a chinky I have beef curry which was actaully quite niceI had a few pints so I didnt drive home, mum did. Saturday I didnt see mum at all.. nadda. She took joe to blue lake or something (near london) shes only being fair since shes been out driving with me most nights and that so its only fair.

Sunday Sunday Sunday what did I do… well my other nan picked me up in her Metro and she drove the Wisbech.. damn I didn’t feel safe at all… after she hit this kirb and we had only just got out the gate… it amazed me the other week when she backed out into another car and decided to drive off!

Anyways slightly shaken I finally got there and see my mum we was having a meal with the rest of the family and that we was basically having a slightly early Christmas meal.. so we had the turkey and all that it was very nice too. Joe finished work so I went to pink him up at 8 so drove back home then back to wisbech without any problems.

Oh yeah popped the petrol station to fill car too.. anyways when i got back to wisbech I noticed my iPod earphones was missing.. I mean sure they sucked (hurt my ears) but they did the job I searched everywhere but couldn’t find them :( after we had a good laugh nice meal, then I had to go home :( nan took me home.

Monday oooh the big day! So I woke up at 6.30 couldn’t get to sleep so i laid there trying to think of a trip round wisbech and what signals I needed to do what lane I wanted to be and that got bored of that so got up.. time soon flew by and di picked me up at 10.40 Got a big.. wierd.. shaky “hug” off my nan (she cant hug properly for some reason… shes getting better though).

So we got there i went through all the normal stuff then I have to do parallel parking… messed that up first time asked if I could do it again and I did I still thought i’d messed my second try up but I only got a minior anyways when it come to the end I got in the car parker expecting bad news but he told me i’d passed with 12 minors heres the sheet for you all to read. and the certificate.

Oct 23rd 2006 [Long Read] Passed driving test! [Part 1]

Yay I passed my driving test i’m so happy this week has been an amazing week i’ve loved every bit of it! Friday the 13th (oOoOoOo) mum come over from spain I did’nt see her that night but I see her the next morning. Saturday mum come to see me and joe I just ran upto her and give her the biggest hug ever we spoke for awhile then mum said that she would take me for a few driving lessons - Excellent!

I could’nt find my L plates so I only ended up going up and down the back roads which wasn’t too bad because for the first time ever I was getting a feel for my car - Which well I love So after about 2 hours of driving about we went to my other nans crashed there for abit then off we went again we got abit lost though :( I did basically in the end a days worth of driving arround the countryside… see some cows… moo!

Mum told me to find my L plates so I could venture further on the road which I did, I put them on sunday… Of course my nan decided to moan about where it should be placed… her spot was stupid no really it was… Grrrr. So we had a drive about Long Sutton and surrounding areas which was nice.

Monday I went even further I had to goto Boston College to drop in some silly assignment (damn CSYS + binary = OMG HARD) anyways I drove to Boston managed to handle the traffic well first got to college parked up near Rich’s corsa then went to hand in the stupid assignment. Met up with Rich and Storer also see Shelly gave her big hug then went to show rich and storer my car they fort it was a nice motor… No sign of marhsall his Rover was being a b*tch lol.

Then I drove to PC World to buy some ink cartridges had a look at iPod stuff but they was selling the old nano’s still!! :S Oh well then I drove through town parked up near sam newsom and went shopping for clothes :) - You can never have too many clothes.. unless your names Joe Parker xD.

After that I decided to drive to Spalding to pick my bro up from grammar.. hehe I parked in staff car park listening to my ‘ardcore banging tunage - Yeah mate init! lol. Joe showed up and I drove home. Tuesday errm What happened Sisco picked me up in the morning and we got the college I cant remember much what we did tuesday but no doubt we had a laugh! I see shelly spent some time with her… yay.

Just if your wondering me and shelly are not together but when we are like with each other we both get mistaken for bf and gf cuz how we are arround each other lol. That night mum showed up and a cant remember much else, Wednesday Oh yes… Tuesday we was told that we had the day off wednesday to do some NCFE work from last year no problem - lesson starts at 10 @ 148, so we decided to go up McDonalds!

So we went up there for a breakfast meal woo, well i didnt have much money so I bought this cheese and ham toastie thingy well they took my order and put this bag on the counter which I thought was mine… So I took it to my suprise it wasnt my cheese and ham toastie thingy it was a bagle or burger or something.

Behind me was this man and he wasn’t happy he was making scene at the counter something about his food… whoops. So that guy stormed off all of a sudden just before I decided to eat it it was whipped out of my hands and i was given this toastie in return… *sigh* although it was nice!

So we got back to college and waited outside 148 then we got told that it was a mistake and that we was back on lessons for the day *sigh* We got told that Thursday we would be doing our NCFE…ok not a problem. Wednesday night we went round my nans for toad in the hole (hahahaha…i’m so immature xD) that was nice :)

Thursday I was waiting for my bus.. oh yeah forgot the mention theres a GIRL and my bus stop all of a sudden guess I should speak to her when we get back lol she just seems anti-social… :/ Anyways I got hi-jacked! by no other than Mr Amazing. There I was inocently sitting in the car waitin for the bus when this blue escort passed me… I knew who it was he come running to the car asking if I wanted a lift.. what could I say? I had no way out so I went with him.

OK He isnt a bad driver at all but he didnt have any radio - WHAT NO TUNAGE!?! So the ride was pretty boring and the top it off guess what time we got into Boston… No really this isn’t funny.. I got in at 8..Yes f**king 8am, i’ve never seen the car park so empty in my life! So anyways I went into college there was nobody…ok a few wierd geeky people but thats it in the end…

After a little wait the college soon filled up with people and rich turned up so I went to go see him ooo I see Jack too stood with him too. Rich was with Aaron, Big Jim and his gf Saz we all went up town I think the orginal idea was to go play snooker or pool or something but we had to be back by 10 lol so we walked back to college.

For the rest of the day we basically did NCFE, NCFE, NCFE, oh and NCFE I guess that the end of the day its an extra certificate and it could get me into a decent job one day… :) Thursday night drove to Sutton Bridge and had spag bol with my other nan w00t!

Thats all for this part the next part well be soon possibly tomorrow so check back or subscribe for new posts

Thats all really for this post come back soon for Part 2

Oct 13th 2006 [Long Read] I’m lost, i’m stuck.

Its true i’ve aproached that time in my life where I don’t know where I stand anymore thats my love life and my career. I am confused this week there been so much going on about me and leanne its just now pissing me off, there was people making all kinds of stuff up like rape and me and leanne will both say that not true at all.

People who know me in person knows that not true at all and that I wouldn’t do anything to harm anything really.. im a pu55y. I find it quite amusing when people think its sad because I don’t fight and i’d rather talk things out because it shows just what type of person they really are.

Talking with your fists where does that get you? Nowhere. I’m lost with my love life because well me and leanne are talkin again and we have started to sort out our differences and because well I am open I told alot of people what happened… not bragging or anything but I told them my side of the story.

This turned into rumours and because a direct attack towards leanne but we have both sorted out what happened and equally took the blame not just me which made me feel alot better. We have both now gotta try sort out what happens next this first starts off with trust and honesty.

I majorly misunderstood leanne and now im paying the price and kicking myself for it. Now I have been thinking out what I want to do for a career all I really ever wanted to do was be a system admin (networking/servers/etc) since I already self-taught myself all that stuff years ago.

But a week ago in one of my lessons a member of staff was talkin to another member of staff about being a tutor/teacher.. . This made me think I wouldn’t want to be a school teacher… there lives suck… I wouldn’t want to be constantly shouting at kids telling them to do such boring work like excel and word…

I’d like to teach college students though I think (actaully I know I can) stand up in front of 20 odd people and teach them about why AMD owns Intel for 1hr lol or why sticking things other than a floppy disc in the drive is a bad thing… I could keep it going but I wont. I think I could do it as college students are “alot more mature” to some degree we have a laugh but we have a laugh with the tutors too.

An aprentiship would be good i’d like that but I wouldnt want to lose out on Nat Dip i love the course and made some really good mates too.

Oh god 158 today have problems first thing this morning we walked in and it stung pretty badly… at the front of the class was a bucket and a hole in the ceiling… hmmm well suddenly we all heard water… and water began to drip out this hole quite alot within minutes the room stang of what I can describe as… 3 week old sh*t + some type of green discharge! in other words it was rank.

We then found out there was girls toilets right above where it was dripping and then we was expecting a great big sh…. ok moving on… :P we left the room promptly soon afterwards. Damn that room smelt. The week has been alright I guess and now I have a weekend to spend with my mummy who has come over today I aint seen her yet but I can’t wait.

I’m now bored… Its a friday night with hardly anyone online I aint really eating anything I did have soup but I aint had much of that either so I guess i’ll jus wel errm listen to music or something oh yeah little tip.

Don’t watch pirated DVD’s if your trying to impress a girl most of the time there complete crap and dont really impress the girl at all infact I don’t think pirated DVD’s are good at all the quality is terrible… random inser there but oh well. If you like My Chemical Romance they got a new song out if you didnt already know and heres the video to it its pretty good… but I dont like his hair. [Thanks Nat]

Watch it here else if its down look here

[UPDATE]

As said by Gerard in a recent interview: “This album is a story of a man, known as ‘The Patient’ who dies in a hospital. He goes on an odyssey and examines his life and the mistakes he has made. Gerard says he cut and dyed his hair bleach blonde to look like The Patient (many fans do not realize this), and his new look resembles a man who’s gone through chemotherapy.

Thats all really sorry its not embedded having a few problems with it screwin the site up guess i’ll work on that lol thanks for reading.

Oct 8th 2006 Tom buys a iPod nano 2

First of all me and Leanne didnt get on aswell as we thought it went, it wasn’t my option to edit last weeks post either, nuff said. So instead of spending loads of money on her I bought a iPod nano 2 to cheer myself up…

So the week has been up and down really the one thing I put my trust and love into f**ked me over. I spent 2 months doing so much for her always being there when she’s needed me protecting her alsorts I finally get her and it just f**ks up well badly and I just feel sh*t. Lost all trust in girls right now.

Tuesday was just your normal day of college having a laugh and doing our C++, Wednesday well… I wasn’t very well at all didnt really do much just mooch arround college which at the same time spread to Rich… oops.. Thursday I didn’t go in at all I stayed in bed till 12 then magically got better about 2pm.. Friday that was a good day and Leanne stopped the night and well lets just leave it there.

Leanne stopped the night and went home in the afternoon, that day was just tears for me. Today we went up Peterboro and had a walk around Queens Gate and I see the new iPod nano 2 and I thought to myself…gotta have that! so here I present my first ever piece of Apple Hardware:

[photopress:DSCF0015_1.JPG,thumb,pp_image][photopress:DSCF0014_1.JPG,thumb,pp_image]

As you can see its very slim and small and holding it it feels very strong and ridgid its come with some fairly good quality headphones but I like my £4 earplugs better… It works really nicely with iTunes 7.01 and I love how I can sync things really fast lol.

If your looking for somewhere to eat in Peterboro, don’t goto Paul Pry the menu there has got really bad there was only 6 main meals and they removed my favorite dish.. Lamb Shank.. Tom not impressed.. They got Joes soup wrong but they did take it off the bill and well his steak was cr@p. When we ordered we was faced with a £27 bill because the previous people didnt pay… wonder why!

So thats all really back to college Tuesday
