My life: update!

Jan 27th, 08 / 0 Comments

I’m annoyed at my computer right now. Are there any trojans going the round right now? :S My PC seems to slow to a crawl one minute, and then be fine the next :( I think its dying/infected – and either way I want rid of it!!!

Managed to get next draft of Physics coursework done this weekend – but then the bloody printer ran out of ink, and I’ve got none spare :( Have to wait for a Viking order to come through now!!! At least I’ve got an excuse for not doing Computing coursework though :D Hehe

I’m fed up of Poynton. That’s enough said on the matter, although things are looking up slightly! School still blows though…

Thats about it for my life at the moment… interesting isn’t it?!

computers, my life, my PC, school

Musical Tastes

Dec 18th, 07 / 0 Comments

Rather disturbed at my own musical tastes at the moment:

Daniel Bedingfield – Gotta Get Thru This – He Don’t Love You Like I Love You

And I’m enjoying… catchy lyrics, and he’s got a pretty good voice. I’m sure this is Music Tech eating me from the inside out!

Someone kill me or make me do something manly – QUICK!

music, music tech, my life

Another fun weekend

Went to the poshest party of the year last night! Out in High Lane…

  • Huge House
  • Bouncers on the gate
  • Invite only
  • £2k worth of Marquee
  • FREE BAR

Yeah it was a fun night…!

Next weekend will be even more epic though… Friday – Monday of solid drinking! Woop woop!

drinking, my life

Licensing

Dec 3rd, 07 / 0 Comments

Just got myself kicked out of the Vernon Arms, just because it was after 9pm. Even though I ordered a Coke.

How the hell is that right?

Is there some magic law that prevents them serving soft drinks to minors after 9pm – even when accompanied by responsible adult?

Absolutely ridiculous

Still, its that cheap that I will be in there come Thursday lunch… :D

Food poisoning – Tech style

Nov 29th, 07 / 0 Comments

So here’s the story so far:

Had Music Tech period 3 today, right before lunch. We happened to have a bass set up and mic-ed with 20 mins to run before lunch, and no-one was using them… so in I jump!

Get Ric on the bass, and started recording for one of my coursework pieces. 20 mins later we’re just getting into it, so Dom goes off down to poynton pantry and returns with a cheeseburger for me. "Excellent!" I thought, "No need to go out for lunch, just carry on recording!".

Then I started on the burger in question. Safe to say it tasted rather crap. In fact, I’m pretty sure crap was one of the main ingredients. However, I ate it anyway.

Get to Maths period 4, and slowly but surely I start feeling immensely ill. Not even a little bit, utterly and completely ill. Like said crap is eating my insides.

Managed not to puke on my book, and now I’m home writing this.

Now… do I take tomorrow off school and miss a lot of work, or go in and hope to hell I don’t hurl on a teacher?!

Wasted weekend

Sep 23rd, 07 / 0 Comments

And not in the sense that I was wasted.

Spent all of Saturday doing Maths homework, and then all of Sunday doing various bits of coursework. I think its fair to say that I’m pretty peeved.

FsPortal is nearing release, only 27.5 days left until it gets unveiled to the public… and yet I can’t spend my time on it!!! I’m losing out on revenue! And you know I need the money if I’m to get my hands on one of those iPhones. Damn you Steve Jobs.

Anywho… back to the same old monotony for another 7 days. I may just have to start a countdown until I leave this awful school and finally start to live again.

Still… 21 days until Family Guy, and a few less until Halflife 2: Ep2 (which I have ordered :D Before I realised I needed the money elsewhere :( Ah well)

I have a fairly crap day at school tomorrow. 2*Physics, 1*Maths and 1*Tech. Probably no blog tomorrow… will be too busy screaming into pillows. Seems to be a regular occurrence now. Who the hell is responsible for this timetable?!?!?!

fsPortal, iPhone, my life, school

Too much work, too little play

Sep 21st, 07 / 0 Comments

This is getting ridiculous… 3+ hours of Maths homework (not even vitally important stuff), 2+ hours of Computing coursework for next Friday, couple of hours needed on Personal Statement asap…

When am I supposed to breathe again?

Oh yeah, and I’ve got classes. Lovely.

My Day

Sep 13th, 07 / 0 Comments

Now the HL2 rant is over… more about me :D

My day was crap! Started off with a couple of okay Music Tech lessons, went downhill with Computing theory, and then double Maths finished me off.

I actually came home and screamed into a pillow at the end. 2 * Maths just isn’t meant to happen.

Fortunately, it only happens until middle of October, when I get to go and sit in with Year 12 lessons. Whoopee. Plus Taylor is now threatening to join them as well. Whoopee * 2.

(I know its hard to tell sarcasm over the net. So here’s a hint. That was sarcasm -.-)

Anyway, got home, lost my Clarinet (hoping its somewhere in Music… fingers crossed), found out that I killed the FsPortal server already (not really… but you know!) and then played HL (see earlier post).

Now I’m off to bed, just to get up tomorrow and do it all again.

Should I start counting down the days until I am released from the horrors of college? May be sad enough to work it out one lesson…

College Blues

Sep 10th, 07 / 0 Comments

Figured out today that I really really don’t like what’s coming up with Music Tech this year, but don’t want to drop it, because the classes are amazing. What do I do?

Oh and the one girl I’d finally got with after 3 years went off with another guy and then somehow turned it round on me. That was nice.

So yeah, nice day. At least I get a lie in tomorrow.
