NEW POST

Just kidding

It's been a long while

Conor's new [and frankly hilariously titled] blog has inspired me to update my blog a bit. In as much as 'inspired to update' and 'reminded me that I have'. Ignore grammatical inconsistencies.

Anyway, I'll keep this short; I'm not going to post everything that's happened since my last post because nothing's happened because there's too much to fit onto a blog post.

Also it's unlikely that I'm going to post again, just so as we're clear.

Love from Ben xxx

Update

I suppose I should post something, seeing as things have happened. Contrary to your usual blog, I'll tell you about the events in alphabetical order.

Battlestar Galactica season 4:

Now there's a way to waste some time. Awesome story going on.

Jess' party:

Firstly, I'd like to wish Jess a happy eighteenth. I hope she enjoyed herself :) Although I came out of that hall having slightly broken a window and lost a reasonable chunk of my thumb, I ended up having a great time too. Also, I must put my thanks in to my mum, who is an absolute godsend in that situation. She took off the club's shoddy bandaging, checked for glass in the cuts, re-dressed them, and rang them up to tell them that she wasn't happy about the window not being reinforced glass. So the club should be paying for their own damn window, not me and certainly not Jess!

Oh, and one minor point that I forgot to mention: I'm fine haha. Nothing permanent.

Laurence rang me last night:

At half past one. I don't quite understand why, and I'm not sure if I want to. Some things are better left a mystery.

Scott Pilgrim:

I haven't enjoyed a film at the cinema as much as that for a while. I loved the comic book styling of the whole thing, loved the layout of the story, and it was a laugh too. It was far from the best film of all time, but as far as comic book based films go it's a personal favourite. God damn some of the moments in it were bizarre, though. One moment in particular had even me saying 'what the fuck..?'.

That's all I'd like to report.

Keep it real.

It's been a while

As [will/may be] promised, I'd like to warn you that this blog post is not particularly interesting - I just feel the need to post because it's been a while since my last post.

Blogging seems like a good idea, until nothing interesting happens for a while. So, let's start with college.

Maths is boring as hell. I hate graphs.

Further maths is boring, I hate Dijkstra.

Physics is alright. I'm starting to get this topic, but it ain't easy.

All in all, I'm so glad that I'm next to the people I'm next to in everything. If I wasn't, I'd be so screwed.

I've also got my first Critical Thinking lesson on Monday. That should be good.

I've fallen into a daily routine very quickly, which is good. Only for college days, though.

Town today. I think I'll wear my new jacket.

I bought a new jacket. And a bow for my guitar. I've spent far too much money recently.

I've been getting through a lot of Battlestar Galactica recently.

Erm... that's about my life of recent summed up.

I'm going to warn your past self that nothing interesting's come of this blog post.

Post 100

Long time no blog, so let's get the arbitrary stuff out of the way:

Back to college, happy with new timetable, looking forwards to double lunches.

Battlestar Galactica gets awesome near the end of series two.

Battlestar Galactica season three takes ages to download.

I can't think of the events I've been to/done recently, but I can tell you with some certainty that I enjoyed them all.

Three pieces of homework on the first day? You've gotta be shitting me.

Minecraft is epic. I'm currently making a floating castle.

Okay, into fully formed sentences now. I'm happy to be back at college, and walked around today with a massive grin on my face. I had far too much energy in the morning, it was far too hot, and I couldn't have asked for a better timetable.

I'm sorry to have missed ice-skating last week, but I'd already organised Warhammer a week and a half ago, and Matt and Andy had been waiting a week and a half to do it. It was great fun anyway.

I'd like to see the film of Scot Pilgrim - apparently it's really good. I don't like the main actor in it - he's in a load of really shit films - but I'll give it a fair trial.

I'm really enjoying my book at the moment, makes me laugh so much every time I pick it up.

I'm looking forwards to physics and further maths this year so much, both classes should be such a laugh. Maths, admittedly, not so much. However, I still have Matt - just not our epicly inept teacher. We now have one who is about as devoid of humour as the queen's left nostril. He's so damn boring, I'm going to end up asleep one of these lessons.

That'll do for now.

Toodles :¬¦)

Another day or two

I don't have a whole lot to say. Watched Burn after Reading on Monday with Conor, Lou, Luke and Jason. Imy and Phil came round today.

I want to get some more Warhammer painting done. If I really give a shit I'm sure I could get a full set done before we go back to college. Do I care enough? Probably not.

I have an orthodontist appointment tomorrow, in case you were wondering. Which you weren't. What the hell kind of messed up train of thought leads you to 'I wonder if Ben has an orthodontist appointment tomorrow?

Ask me something of Formspring. I think that site's a good idea. http://www.formspring.me/Artemis150

Upcoming: Ice skating on Friday, Pizza hut on Saturday (I hope they have a vegan option), watching A Serious Man on Sunday, and hopefully Warhammer at some point too.

That's all for now.

Hugs and kisses.

MATT

Matt went away on holiday again. I wish he'd stop doing that, it sucks for me. I hope he has a miserable time and never wants to go on holiday again.

Okay, that's a bit harsh.

I'll live.

He came round yesterday and we ended up staying up until half past four, which is always fun. Before that was town, and half a game of Warhammer at games workshop with a cheating little prick. I want to slam his little head onto the gaming table. We spent a good two hours complaining about him :L Also, Matt gained a stalker who followed him into the bathroom, which was funny :L

Taking this from Heena's blog (minus a few questions) for some reason which I can't quite fathom at the moment. Maybe it'll hit me whilst I'm answering/deleting the questions.
