Well this week its been boring really what with my portable hard drive dying while backing up it just aint really been my week. Its starts off with last week i’d got all my assignmnets near enough completed and deleted the old backup on WAP (grentz PC) to make room for the new backup (WAP has only got 300mb disk space left) Goto run the backup half way through it spins down… windows starts moaning about it… not being able to read it…

So i unplugged it and popped it back in nothing… totally dead no spin up nothing… so i preordered one from PC Worlds site and drove to Kings Lynn bought it for £20… urgh then drove home. Got home openned the case and there was a hard drive inside already… wierd… so i took that one out and popped mine in and nothing… i started to panic because i’d lost all last years work and more importantly all this years work i was nearly at crying stages at one point.

So i calmed down and started looking into Data Recovery prices ranging from £100 to £1000, i got a quote of £145 to have my data recovered but decided it would be faster (and cheaper) to redo it again so here I am redo’ing SAD , BIS 2, and web dev! Well having a break at least! Thats all i’ve really been doing

Friday was my birthday i had my mate pete round because everyone was busy or they live too far away which is fair enough. Me and pete had a pretty good laugh we didnt go out just sat in the living room watching old school tv programs like… Crystal Maze while getting pissed lol! pretty fun time Saturday was interesting, i was n bed and at 7am theres a phone call… (im still recovering from friday) answer it and theres an emergency next door… i’ll let the pictures answer:

Yes thats a flood in the front garden from the previous nights heavy rain the mina sewage pipe got blocked and so my aunt was getting everyones sewage in the front lawn as the day progressed more water just kept on coming until anglian water turned up 4 hours later! I got sat nav for my Bday which is pretty cool for when i got out to places, like to see shelly.

Worked sunday didnt do alot though monday… see shelly and my mates lol that was pretty cool but i didnt get to see shelly much same with tuesday but she looked so fit seriously it made me think to myself wow i’m going out with her i feel like the luckiest guy alive (i know you will all laugh but thats how she makes me feel, she is so hot!

I really am in pain this week I can hardly walk cuz f my back i think i’ve slipped a disc or something but it kills and i walk like a stick insect because if i walk normally it hurts so i have to walk retarded it still hurts but not as bad well i aint really done alot all week i’ve attempted to get some college work done!

So i’ve been pretty busy this week today i went to the doctor today about my back and he has subscribed me some pills so hopefully my back pains will be cured! Then I got attacked by my razor when I was shaving I had it unde the hot water then put it on my face and the shock made me jerk and cut all my lip thats begining to heal up.

Today my new CPU turned up so I did a mini upgrade from a Intel Celeron D 2.66Ghz with 256k cache to a Intel Pentium 4 HT 3Ghz with 2mb cache. I can kinda notice  speed difference bu the cache will be the biggest improvement!

And i’ve upgraded my grents pc too ok this is enough PC talk. Me and shelly getting along well i’m missing her i cant wait to get back to college to see her and my mates! oh well heres a video!

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!

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.

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)

Hey everyone sorry to the subscribers that received that random email, I’m trying out Windows Live Writer for posting on my blog so far it seems pretty good with a good range of plugins. So yes I have been working 6 to 8.30 and so far its been pretty good because well there’s not many people about at night time and the people that are there seem pretty nice!

The weather has calmed down from the gale force winds to snow… I’ve never drove in snow hopefully it wont snow another its seem to have melted now well most of it! College is going ok we got some assignments to be in soon i guess i better get them finished but its keeping track of them which is tricky.

The cars subwoofer is fitted and sounds pretty good its 10 inch and its Vibe its got quite a kick to it too so i’m pretty impressed, I’m thinking of covering it in gray car carpet to make it blend in here’s a picture of it before it was fitted.

Car tax is coming up soon so i am am trying to not spend any money i wont get pay this week either I have to wait till next week… and i doubt I’ll have EMA I lost mine but found it today so I need to get all my lessons signed for Monday and Tuesday… well I was there so…

Thanks it for now sorry subscribers for th screw up, I blame Windows live Writer
