Nov 20th 2006 Bought a new phone

First of all do not buy a Nokia 6600, they are crap… possibly the worse phone i’ve had for a long time… it takes a good 5 seconds to load out txts and 3 minutes to start up… damn i hated that phone.. then it refused to startup and then the speaker went on it so I guess it was time to get a new phone, when mum was over she give me and my brother £100 to go get new phones so I have bought the Sony Erricsson K750i.

phone

I no not the latest of phones but its still pretty modern… expandable memory, bluetooth, 2 megapixel camera… yeah thats all I need really so I drove up Boston today met up with Rich and Tev went up town , walked to o2 shop nand they was sold out… gutted so went to Phone4u, and they had one in stock.. BUT there was a catch.. you had to top up £10 to activate it… yeah I know bullsh*t.. I said I had a sim already but they wouldnt take that for an answer… BAH!

Oh well leeast I got a better phone lol, FINALLY got my spoiler too!

306 spoiler

I got this small standard for serveral reason, I didnt want nothing over the top (chavvy) , nothing to effect the insurance either… So i got a standard (very rare) phase 3 spoiler its took me months to get hold of one and the person I bought it off is even giving me a free can of paint for me car… how good!

Speaking about my car… SOME TW*T dented my back door either at college or petrol station heres a picture of it

As you can imagine I was NOT happy about it at all and I didnt notice it until i got home either, I started to T-Cut the paint off which did a very good job then tried to get the dent to pop out and it did ok not fully but enough so it didnt look too bad.. theres a slight crease on the contour though :(

College is going alright been getting alot of assignments there giving us an exam soon (URGH) I hate exams… i’m bound to fail them :( Went to see Borat saturday night with amy but nothing happened.. I think we are better off as mates. So i’m still single but still got my rules inforce:

  • No going back with ex’s - ever.
  • No emailing random girls… lesson well learnt.
  • No going out with close girl mates.

Tonight I plan to well… errrm I gotta tidy my room and maybe get my soft dev assignment sorted… I hate test logs… VB6 was so much better! Back to college tomorrow for yet another wonderful week xD. I guess thats it really… *thinks* Oh yeah a video… hmmm lets see what i’ve got this week…

Nov 15th 2006 My confidence has been knocked

Alot of people know me.. i’m a pretty outgoing.. open… caring…loving.. sensitive… funny? person..load of confidence, I can stand up infront of people like the whole class talk to them most of the time without a problem but when it comes to my love life its a little different and I just feel really confused right now.

its been well over 6 months since me and shelly broke up and when I found ****** I thought it was gonna be a new start for me… she lives closer to me… she goes to my college… perfect. When I first met ****** she was still with her bf Tom.. who is a dick… or so she made out to me that he is.

What can I say we met up while she was still going out with him and we “got along” pretty well I then spent like 2 months with her flirting and meeting up while they was together it felt so right yet it was so wrong.. I was there when he had “done stuff” to her and all that, they eventually broke up.

She ignored me after that… I was gutted she went with a guy called ben who she said was fat.. i’d never met the guy so i didnt know but anyways that didnt work out so i felt I was second best when she come running back to me I was stupid enough to go back to her really but I did. She stopped round one friday night one thing let to another and well thats it really..

The next day she felt I had forced her into doing that.. People who know me pretty well would know I am not like that at all and it ddint go very far after that.. after all it wasn’t true people see straight through what she was saying because well she had basically said similar things about not just tom but all her other ex’s.

So what did I do? I felt sorry for her and decided to accept a lie and try and make up with her… possible one of the stupidist things i’ve done in a long time and I just ended up getting hurt even more when i relised she’d come off my friends list on bebo and was flirting with tom on the comments bit…

So where did that lead me? well i made friends with shelly and I tried to find someone new… or something I replaced her with a iPod nano 2 lol which was actually cheaper to run lol. ****** is slagging me off? Why I have no idea but if she carries on we will do it back, i’ve had enough of it.

Anyways that was yesterdays rant todays is… A road toll.. but with a difference… we would have to have a stupid little black box which charges use on the road we go on… right and as if petrol wasnt expensive already?And I quote from BBC’s website:

The draft bill seeks to give councils more power to implement their own trials, while ensuring they fit with surrounding schemes.

If the trials are successful, a national scheme could be investigated - with drivers possibly paying £1.34 a mile to drive on the busiest roads at rush hour. Black boxes in cars could work out how far they travel on toll roads.

They really couldn’t give a f**k about people that live in the country side its all about the city the fucking wonderful city of London(istan) Sorry this really did piss me off when I read this on the net today… f**k you tony blair we already knew you a the biggest tw@ in this country but…making yourself even bigger is not gonna make us like you, ever!

Ok I think thats it really… driving to college tomorow good luck to our footie team we will be there supporting you guys!

Nov 8th 2006 Finally an Update!

Guys first of all I am really sorry for no updates for over a fortnight! i’ve been pretty busy.. mostly going out from mini cruze’s round Long Sutton and looking for a Job… A JOB!?! Woah.. Yeah I know.. I found out very quickly that to run a 1.8 you need money… thats means getting a job…

Ok so I’ve been round the shops in Boston first HMV they gave me a form.. but it was too… advanced to fill it in.. out of my depth like so I decided to look for somewhere.. errm easier and right up my street.. PC World.. I’ve been there loads of times and theres been time when i’ve wanted to correct and employee when they have said something wrong too.

So I got my CV all updated with my new qualifications.. which I must say are pretty good (the new ones that is) got all the form sorted handed it in.. I really hope I get called up for an interview because I feel with my current knoweledge I know quite alot then most people.

Car is driving about great… love it… but it drinks petrol…like most cars lol. anyways thats a pretty small update I aint really got much else to say…

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
