I had a maths and physics exam today. Maths was easy, physics was a bit harder. I'm pretty sure I got an A in maths, but I'm not so sure about physics. I could've gotten anything from an A to a D, I'd say. It depends how harshly it's marked. I had my first exam that I didn't sit next to James in, but I was sat next to Katy. I don't think I'll ever sit an exam without being near anyone I know.
After the physics, we set off walking to the bus station. James and Ryan saw a bus heading for the bus station, so they ran for it. They got on a bus forgo a five minute walk! That's just my favourite thing ever. The utter laziness! Well played to 'em.
I've quite enjoyed today, so far. Especially the fact that I've got time left yet! For some reason, I thought exams would take up the whole day.
What do I do now?
I sort of said I'd wait for Conor, but I didn't EXACTLY say that, so I went home. Kinda wish I'd waited, but y'know.
I'ma wrap this up and go on XBox Live [which shall now be referred to as XBL] with Matt.
SONG
Day 13: A song that is a guilty pleasure.
Hmm, I'm not easily made to feel guilty about music, so this is tough.
is what happened today. Physics revision, maths revision, halo wars, tea.
The hilight of today so far happened just a minute ago. My mum was trying to make chocolate sponge cake, but it sunk. She was going to throw it away, but me and Jamie volunteered a... better solution. Yeeah, we may have eaten the lot :D
Ok, so today wasn't all bad. Cake=win.
I ain't worried about my two exams tomorrow. Not at all. I'm really not. I've done some revision, and I think I can do everything. I'm as prepared as I'm gonna be.
I'm thinking of having a get-together next week, just because.
An' tha's all I gots to say about that.
Day 12: A song from a band you hate.
MetallicA. I hate them; their singer's fucking abysmal, but they've got some great tunes. If only they were an instrumental band they'd be good.
Fucking great day. Got up, listened to music with coffee [a mon avis, the best way to start the morning], went out to Avenham with what can only be described as everyone I know minus three or four people. I climbed a tree, tried to skim stones, broke my phone, bought a new one for £10 [which I love], bought a new pencil, accidentally scratched myself with it, went home, and did some Physics revision.
For tea, Jamie made omelettes [and burnt mine]. After that, I thought I'd make pancakes, only Jamie'd used up all of the eggs making omelettes, so I made pancakes using vegan egg replacer instead of eggs. Then I decided to make vegan pancakes by using soya milk; I was laughing for pretty much the whole time we were making the pancakes:
Jamie tried the first pancake:
Me: "It's a bit crap, isn't it?"
Jamie: "Of course it's crap, it doesn't have any shitting eggs in it!"
A few minutes later...
Jamie: "We should've used the eggs, shouldn't we?"
Me: "You used all of the eggs in your shitty tea."
Then we got onto the subject of The Power Puff Girls:
Jamie: "What the fuck is 'everything nice', anyway? He's putting fucking puppies in there! There'd just be a vat full of some sticky bubbly substance with a puppy drowned in it."
A minute later:
Jamie: "I can just imagine what actually happened. Professor Utonium's wife gave birth, and he just sneaks into the incubation ward late at night holding a vat, saying to himself "...but Professor Utonium accidentally added an extra ingredient into the concoction...""
Then [somehow] on the topic of LSD:
Jamie: "It's like I'm high or something. Actually, it's like I've dropped more acid than Professor Utonium did on those three kids."
Then I was complaining about Microsoft Notepad:
Jamie: "Microsoft were really pushing back the boundries of the least possible work you could do."
Such good fun! We should cook more often.
Song!
Day 11: A song from your favourite band.
I've done, like, six of these already. However:
Radiohead's most popular song, as far as I know.
After that awesome day, I'ma go ahead and say my usual thing.
See the Large Hadron Collider in all it's glory and go to Switzerland!!! Yeeeyyy.
Erm, today I went to the park with Conor. Found that my bike's been stolen, which kinda sucks.
However, always good fun to be had with Conor. We have to be the only two people who agree to meet half way and end up walking towards our own houses to meet each other :P
We ended up ambling about for a while and going to Longton park, trying to get a kite down from a tree, as y'do. Yeah, pretty good day overall. I really don't give a crap about my bike.
Day 10: A song that makes you fall asleep.
Easy one:
That tune just makes me sleepy. Speaking of which, I'm tired. Must be the heat.
Firstly, the previous post from this one was the scan of yesterday's Occasional Comic.
Secondly, today. Erm... went out with my dad, revised, usual shit. Tomorrow, I'll be going into college to hand in my application to go to see The Large Hadron Collider in Geneva! Then I'll be doing Physics revision, but y'know, so worth it! Only 18 places, so I'd better get there damn early.
I plan on doing something that a certain few people have been trying to convince me to do soon, methinks. Nervous about that!
I found an old diary of mine yesterday; I don't remember writing it, but I recognised my own handwriting, tone of writing [I'm sure there's a word for that] etc. and I mentioned my name later on. It wasn't dated either, but luckily at one point I mentioned that I was 14. I wrote it three years ago! Very strange looking back at how I used to think. Very strange indeed.
Do you know how cool I am? I'ma watch some Dragonball Z because I'm slightly bored, and watched Dragonball recently. Yeah. Cool, aren't I?
I'm kinda hungry
Erm... Song!!!
Day 09: A song that you can dance to.
Ah, that gives me a choice of... like... ALL the songs! They need to be more specific!
I did once break out into a kind of spasm at the awesomeness of this song, though;
I love French people; they aime l'hip-hop! et avec ça, j'aimerait à bidder-tu Adieu!
I've been barefoot pretty much all day. However, it's been a fucking fantastic day. Generally pleasant morning, went out to Phil's with Liam, Conor, Matt, Richard, Hannah, and obviously Phil. We set off walking, I got a blister, and I ended up walking around bearfoot. After not long, Liam joined me and we both suffered greatly at the hands of high temperatures and rough concrete. Feeling better now after washing my feet ^^ very odd thing to do, but I feel so much better for it!
I've been in a rather good mood for... various reasons which I've been mocked about a fair amount =_=. Fantastic fun dicking about with an American football and having interesting... discussions.
Hannah leant me her belt. I need to give her that back.
Fantastic quote from today: "She's like Through Fire and Flames on expert: you just can't do it!". Made me laugh :'D
My feet are in pain, I'm a bit uncomfortable from the heat, I've got two exams on Thursday, but I'm in a great mood :D
I've done a couple of drawings today, but I can't be bothered scanning.
I plan on starting revision tomorrow, but y'know: I plan on doing just a little each day.
Ah well, now for the song which you'll inevitably not listen to:
Day 08: A song that you know all the words to.
So much choice... hmm...
I'ma go to bed or some shit like that, so me and my sore feet shall bid you Adieu.
'Twas sunny today. Very sunny. And hot. This gave me a headache. Conor gave me advice on how to get rid of the headache. The headache is now gone. Good times, but nothing much to say again!
Muusic.
Day 07: a song that reminds you of a certain event.
This reminds me of Phil's party. Again, not sure why.
So... I'm pretty damn happy at the moment for... various reasons XD
that's how much of interest has happened today, so I'ma just do the song thing and not waste your time with how dull today was.Day 05 - A song that reminds you of someone.
Day 05 - A song that reminds you of someone.
Tough one. I don't really relate people to songs.
That'll do, I can never think of this song without remembering my mum singing it :'D
For those of you that can't follow basic instructions, you're reading the wrong thing. Scroll down and follow the purple instructions!
For the rest of you, welcome back to the present =)
Tuesday
Day 4: a song that makes me sad.
I can't describe how much I love that song, except in saying that I can't describe it =S Pretty crazy...
Khenywho, Comic!
Today's been very slow. It's welcome after a few hectic days, but I'd like more khumans tomorrow, please.
I should draw this up, and I will do (later), the hilights of today!
R.E.: Commenting on people. Obviously, I have little to say about people I don't know, and if you had a Christmas card from me last year, you'll probably know I'm not one for arbitrary comments like 'Merry Christmas', or in this case 'Really nice person'. So, I went on to do a few more... personal comments. By personal I mean sarcastic. I lied about the personal part.
"You seem... lovely"
Made me laugh ='D
Then there was Chemistry. A grand total of fuck all interesting happened.
Lunch was a bit of a laugh, with Heena being unsure whether I was staring at her breasts or not =P. Gotta love leaving people ill at ease.
Ok, I'm listening to music, and when a favourite song of mine finished, my reaction was to tell it 'agreed'. That was odd.
In further maths, James had me laughing again with his drawings: he'd drawn a picture of, if I remember correctly, an apple stearing a skateboard with a sale and rudder.
God damn I love that song, always cheers me up a bit =D
Comic:
Firstly, I finished my maths homework. Then, I went to sleep for a while, got up, went to coll-
etc.
Got 100% in the homework I finished that morning.
...
I'll put this here, James' CoPE work was making me laugh so much that I've decided it needs to be on the internet, so I'ma scan it and put it here, seeing as I have little to talk about on this post:
Nothing else of significance happened; so until you scroll up and read the next post, Adieu.
Maybe it's not the worst thing to happen to music, but from the top of my head, that's the best [/worst? =S ] I could think of
Comic:
Ramp City was awesome, I'm well proud of managing to get on top of the vert ramp; it's more than twice my size! I'm quite proud of a few of the stunts I managed, and the fact that I didn't hurt myself! Also, I learned a very small amount of skating, which was fairly fun.
Got home, started doing my homework which was in for the next day, managed just less than half of it when we went out for a meal at Frankie and Benny's and to see Robin Hood. The meal was great (as always) and the film was good. There was a bit too much action and too little character development for my personal taste, but I'd definitely give it 7.5/10.
Got home, and tried to get my homework done, but didn't get it finished before midnight, so that's for the above post.
Oh, and for the inevitable awkward few of you who tell me how you got into an infinite recursion due to the titles of the posts, you can ignore them now ;)

Ooh, my favourite song. Hmm... there's one that I keep coming back to that I just love at the moment. It's a B-side, an early version of 'No Surprises'. God I love it:
I love the lyrics more than anything: he was sick of his clock stopping wind it up, that girls stayed sleeping next to him watch stops, the batteries run down he started his broken sentence, "no alarms..." the watch stops, the batteries run down, he started his broken sentence,no alarms and no surprises he was sick of her excuses to not take off her dress when bleedin' in the bathroom he was sick of his clock stopping, wind it up no alarms an no surprises no alarms an no surprises no alarms an no surprises, please. It's very much up for debate what it's about. I've heard that it's about suicide quite a lot, but that's not what I think. I think it's about hating a sort of... boringly pleasant life. I'll not go into any more detail, actually, but that is just an all-round great song.
Now, today. It can very easily be summed up with my comic and no explanation, methinks. Ignore the top left one; it's from yesterday
That was probably something to do with me pissing about with the Html. So, to annotate the pictures from top left, top right, middle left, middle right sort of deal:Every morning I aim to get up at about half six, to catch my bus at quarter TO eight. I woke up this morning at eight o'clock. Very happily looked over at my alarm thinking 'I wonder how much time I have before I have to get up... -1.5 hours. So I had to forgo my usual morning shower and coffee, get dressed, brush my teeth, and go to the bus stop to catch the next bus. Walked into further maths 5 minutes late, mumbled 'sorry', and sat down to do my second mock exam. I'll have failed that, as I was dopey as hell whilst doing it.
Then I did CoPE work. The computer decided to delete my work, so I got annoyed and matt was laughing, hence the third picture. In chemistry, we managed to get our teacher to look up 'blue waffle'. If you haven't already seen it, don't, it's horrific. That was a fun lesson - gotta love Katie being ditsy. i.e.: "Ooo, a green stamp! I wanna stamp my forehead. I'm gonna stamp my forehead. Aww, it won't come off! I wanna get it off..." :'D made me laugh.
Lunch was fun. If you can't see it, the bit at the bottom in brackets is just mentioning the infinite recursion going on. I.e., I was drawing myself drawing myself drawing myself... etc. I spent my free at the end of the day generally drawing that and generally dicking about, not making a start on work for the weekend. 'twas a good free. The bus home was good fun. Although methinks Conor and Joe need to learn a bit of subtlety and discretion =_= I'm looking forward to this weekend. Town tomorrow and I'll be going to a skate park on Sunday with Jamie, David, and probably Ollie and Jess. Should be good. And as for next week; well, who knows what it'll bring?
Yeah, I mention it every time it's a Thursday, but they always seem a bit bizarre. In fact, any or all of today may or may not have been a dream. Shit, I've just realised how vague that sentence was lol. Yeah lol, it may mean absolutely nothing, but I used it. Whatchagonnado?
So, today consisted of:
1) Driving lesson [not much to tell]
2) Conor introduced me to someone - presumably that he knows [although it's very possible to be otherwise] - with the usual [I can't remember his name, so he shall be called - for [the proverbial] argument's sake, Tim {as it is my middle name}.
Conor: "Ben, Tim. Tim, Ben,"
Ben: "Tim."
Tim: "Ben."
Ben: "Ben."
Tim: "Tim."
So we both very much established that we had heard Conor telling us our names.
Then we gave the clouds a good running commentary, which was hilariously dull. (Juxtaposition, methinks? Correct me, linguists!)
Then there was slow-dancing. I'm not sure why.
Right, I just deleted me listing all of the boring things I did today, there's no need for y'all to read that.
I really want to talk to Morgy. No decent reason for that, I just do.
As you can probably tell, I've had a good day. Probably almost completely; almost, but not quite entirely, due to the good; or rather, average, night's sleep I got last night.
Wow, I went through a hell of a lot of that sentence without relaying any information whatsoever.
Speaking of no information whatsoever, look at this lovely white gap with no information in it.
Why the fuck did I type that??? I'm laughing at myself, so I'm not gonna delete it. Ah well, goodnight, sweet prince, and may a flight of angels sing thee to thy r-Adieu.
I feel like I haven't slept in weeks. Ah well, I'll probably sleep well enough tonight. Hopefully.
Pictures For Sad Children is amazing. It's had me laughing for the past hour, but now I've finished the good ones. Damn.
I need to revise for exams.
I need to sleep.
I need to start eating properly.
I just don't care enough. I'll just let shit happen how it happens when it happens. Be reet.
I need to stop telling myself what I need to do on this post when I've had a thoroughly lovely day, and I'll just ruin it by worrying about the future.
I went for a walk around the Brickcroft before. I haven't just gone for a walk in months - although it's probably not blameless that it's been near freezing for a fair few months. Still, it was very pleasant. In fact, today could hardly have gone better, reasonably speaking.
Phil told me about something called ' the hourly comic' today, where this guy draws a couple of frames every hour summarising the hour, and I think I'll start doing that and adding it to my blog. Could be fun.
I remember my second ever blog post, as will (possibly) a grand total of three others. It was about as long as your average book. Now they're getting shorter and shorter, until they will inevitably fade away into nothingness...
Or until I have something I can actually bitch and moan about again.
YESTERDAY.
I played Warhammer with the good Mr. Chamberlain and Wheatley. I won, as usual :P
Damn I own at that game.
To celebrate my victory, I bought one of these:
Guess how much? That wasn't rhetorical, guess damnit! Just take a guess.
Guessed yet?
£30. Such a fucking rip-off. It's so not worth it, but my mum very kindly paid for it for me. Partly, I think, because she feels bad about not being in the house much for the past two weeks. Partly because she was sick of me debating getting them :P
She also gave me the money to get these:
But I'll probably have to order those.
I hope you can see these pictures, by the way.
Those are £20. £27 if I want the Command... which I do. My mum gave me £60 for the lot, so I'll probably get those. I'll show you those too:
I'll get those plus 5 normal ones. Damn I love Warhammer, despite it being one big scam.
Hurrah for putting pictures in posts to make it longer!
Not to end on a bad note, but I want to tell you about my... sporadic night's sleep last night. I woke up at half four, thinking that I needed to be up at six, so I set my alarm in my very sleepy state. Woke up at six due to my alarm, realising that I didn't need to be up. I turned my alarm off, and went back to sleep, only to wake up twice because of my dream. It wasn't a bad dream, or even bizarre, it was just... slightly less normal than my other dreams. And I do mean very slightly. As in, two people shook hands when they said 'hi', that kind of thing (that's not what it was, but I ain't sayin' what it was). And this dream woke me up. Twice! I had the same dream twice in a row. It does make me wonder if I have that dream a lot, but I forget it every night. I do rarely seem to remember dreams, so there's no reason why that wouldn't be true. Part of the annoying thing is that the second time, I actually thought to myself that it wasn't a dream! I was convinced that it wasn't. I really wish I'd've stayed asleep for a while longer, I want to see where it was going.
Haha, I'm actually complaining about having good dreams now! This is just getting pathetic, I need to sort my priorities out. For example, I should have already gotten started on the quite literal pile of homework I have to do this weekend, and so I shall go and try to make a dent in it now, and bid you Adieu.
Yup, cookie dough ice cream was the hilight of my day. This is due to two factors:
Today was really quite shit. My driving lesson went well, but it wasn't exactly thrilling. Maths was shit as fuck. Chemistry was shit. We did a test in Physics. No-one was on the bus home for half of the journey, due to C-block being last on Thursdays. I haven't done any work today, and I really should've but I can't bring myself to do it. I only had a flapjack for lunch; which, combined with not having breakfast, wasn't great either. I only had 76p. I now only have 1p.
I'd give today a 7/10 on the Wednesdayometer (spell-check wants to pick me up on that, but it's not happening =P)
Maths: got away with not doing homework thanks to Conor's little tip =D (Tell the teacher before they ask for it). After that, the rest was a piss about.
Physics: I love physics, and I'm getting better at electricity
Critical Thinking: Marking mocks. Finished half an hour early, had a nice coffee with Matt.
Home: Battlefield, homework, made cakes for CoPE.
The only reason I'd give today a 7/10 is because Wednesdays are usually shit. As far as overall days go, it'd be a 4 at best, but the fact that Wednesday went by with little to no damage done puts me in a good mood. Also, making cakes was kinda fun.
...I have a new one. By new, I mean possibly twenty years old, and you can't press a number once, it has to be at least twice. It's fucking ace! It's like... an antique of maths! Fantastic.
Also, Jamie and I started writing a song today. It went pretty damn well, but we could really do with more instruments than a piano and a guitar. Be reet.
Hutton fete was... well... shit (see http://he-makes-things-wacky.blogspot.com for details. Yes, it's a real link this time and I'd recommend clicking on it and reading the whole thing twice. It's fucking brilliant). However, it's always good to see peopleses.
Wow, I've got fuck all to say today. Maybe I'll go off on one a bit.
...has healed! After over a week, it's finally managed to sort itself out. It was severely damaged during my... cycling incident. But it's alright now, so that's damn good news (Y)
Today my dad, Jamie and I went to see Iron Man 2. Now, don't get me wrong, it's not going to go down in history as an instant classic, but it's a great film. The action was actually entertaining, the main character's ace, and the plot's half decent. I'd give it a good 8/10.
Yesterday was fucking fantastic, too. Went out with the usual crew to town, which is always great fun. Then, I got home, walked through the front door to hear the phone start ringing. I picked it up, and it was Jason, inviting me round to his house. After an unusually long phone-call, we got a plan sorted, so I 'helped' jamie cook the lasagne, ate it, and got to the bus within three quarters of an hour; Which is impressive, when you consider it takes half an hour to cook.
At Jason's, we played 'Risk', which is a fucking brilliant game, which I have every intention of playing again. George was round too, and he'd played it before, so he absolutely wiped Jason and me. It was still great fun, and I'd love to play again at some point. I had to rush off towards the end of the game, as I had to catch the last bus to mine. That was risky, admittedly, as I wasn't exactly sure when it was supposed to arrive, but it all ended well (Y)
Now, I'm going to do some homework in preparation for being able to do none tomorrow, so I shall bid you a very happy Adieu.
