Really made me think 'I do fuck all in my spare time'. I genuinely wrote about Warhammer. Also, I found it quite funny that I hadn't done it, so I said I've done it at home and forgot to bring it in, so my tutor said to e-mail it to her. So I said I would, only did it today, and tried to send it to her with the excuse 'it wouldn't attach, sorry'. Sent her the e-mail, realised I'd forgotten to attach it, thought 'that's a bit ironic', and tried to attach it to a new one. 'You do not meet the requirements to attach a file. You must have up to date anti-virus software'.
Fuck that shit, I'll hand in a hard copy tomorrow. Irony at it's best.
Got dragged round shoe shopping today. Further proof that my life is, in fact, a sitcom for someone else's amusement.
Also, 'The Colour of Magic' is fantastic.
I'ma stop ending my blog posts with 'Adieu'. I used it to sort of round off posts, but I don't like the word any more, and it's a bit amusing to leave off at a point that leaves you in a funny state of 'Oh...'
Finally, I've been introduced to a type of joke which is hilarious. They're called 'Lad jokes'. Here's an example:
"I asked this girl to have sex with me, and she said no. She got really drunk and passed out and I raped her. LAD."
Exams are finished, you don't need to hear about them from me for another few months. I'm feeling great at the moment. Spent the day doing A2 stuff, planning an epic bottle rocket [for physics], going to Avenham, coming home, having a bath, starting a book, dozing on the sofa for an hour or so, reading manga, staying in the present tense whilst describing past events. Y'know, the usual. I'm still exceedingly tired, so I'm hoping for a good night's sleep.
Can't wait for tomorrow. Driving lesson, maths, chemistry, physics. Okay, so sounds like hell for some, but this is like Christmas to me. Learning about science and maths without worrying about exams and stuff.
I suppose there's plenty of things to go wrong, but it's looking like a good day from where I'm sat. I realise I'm currently vomiting rainbows and unicorns, but I'm so damn relieved that I've got nothing to dread any more.
No more posts until I have something interesting to talk about, promise.
With exams, that is. I want them to finally be over! I don't mind doing the exams, I don't care about how much revision my tutors reckon I should've done, I just can't stand the pressure of 'I've got an exam soon', and I hate 'I can't go, I've got to revise'. It's shit. Ah well, it'll be over soon. On the morbidly bright side, I've got plenty to look forwards to. Finishing exams today, Thursday in two days, starting Dungeons and Dragons 3.5 soon, it's looking up. However, I'm quite the fan of living in the moment, and at the moment I'm struggling to plan today. I've got an exam in three hours, so I could do to be on a bus in two hours. I need to have something substantial to eat before the exams, seeing as I'll be sitting there for three hours. The problem is, I want to leave eating for as long as possible, because I've already eaten this morning. Also, the later I leave it, the less likely I am to be hungry during the exams.
I probably should've done some revision this morning. And yesterday. I don't fucking care any more.
Okay, at this point you may realise that this whole post is to vent my slight panic about having two exams, one of which I've only done a couple of past papers' revision for, the other I've simply not revised for.
Also, when the fuck do I eat?
Ah well, besides exams, life's looking up (Y) Healthier eating, sleeping slightly better. Y'know, it's all good.
I'm sick to death of the pressure of 'I should be revising'. I can handle the exams, I'm not worried about not doing well, I just hate the pressure. However well I do is as well as I could've done. Everything will happen the way it will happen.
Now that I've vented that, on to better things. Imy's last night was brilliant, and I'd like to thank her very much for that :) She did a great job sorting out the bill, too.
I had quite a bit to talk about when I first started typing this, but I've forgotten now. Ah well, be reet.
Yeah, not much to report as far as larger events in life go, so little things it is.
Coming out of further maths today, I ended up talking to James about his and Ryan[if I remember rightly]'s plans to make a rocket. I ended up forgoing catching the earlier bus in order to hear him out.
Music's becoming quite a big part of my life. For example, I've listened to today; Sigur Ros' (untitled), Sigur Ros' Agaetis Byrjun (that should have a stupid amount of symbols in it that I have no intention of learning how to type), Radiohead's In Rainbows, and I'm half way through Radiohead's Kid A at the moment. I'll end up finishing it before I get to sleep. Maybe I should leave it on whilst I drift off. Sigur Ros'd be better for that. I'm very happy to have managed to start listening to another band. I've got another one that I plan on listening to called The Brilliant Green, I think. I may need a lot more music on my iPod if I keep this up, though. I should do that, I want Oasis, The Beatles, and Bob Dylan back!
Everything else seems to be going rather well, really. Plans for Friday and Saturday, so far as I remember (Conor'll remind me), A2 work's seeming interesting, remaining AS work's seeming a bit tedious, all is as it should be.
Carry on with life as normal, and I'll bid you a swift Adieu!
is a bad idea. I'm sure many of you already knew this, but it seems to have taken me until today to decide that it's true. It puts you in a really sour mood.
Speaking of which, I think I may have some sort of aversion to soya. I tried drinking some soya milk, thought 'it tastes alright, actually', and then gagged. Very odd.
I have one of Matt's curtains in front of me. Just so you know.
The reason for that is simple: Matt brought one of his curtains round to mine and left it by accident.
He brought it so that we could play Warhammer. It was essentially me against Andy and Matt. Jason was supposed to be on my team, but he doesn't really know how to play and didn't really like it, so I was essentially controlling both armies. Matt and Andy ended up sleeping over [partly because the game ended up lasting twelve hours]. 'Twas good fun.
Yesterday morning I had my further maths exam. I panicked at the first question, which can't've been good. Ah well, be reet. I may have done well.
Today has been rather odd. Got up, usual routine, talked to Andy on XBL about Warhammer, spent an hour or so working on Warhammer stuff, did some revision, led down on the floor for a bit, got my guitar, played guitar horizontally, went back on XBL, fun times on facebook, everyone decided to send me birthday messages...
I dunno, it just all seemed a bit... odd. Not looking forward to this week at all, but Saturday should be good!
Not much to say, but I needed to make the point to/at something that today was strange.
I'm not doing a post a day. I give up with that song thing.
Although, on the subject of songs, I've been listening to Reckoner. That song is amazing; I just love everything about it. I'd like to stop going on about it, but it's just the best thing.
I love the way I don't even feel the need to tell you which band anymore. I need to broaden my taste in music...
After a fair few hours not typing, I now need to pick up where I left off: Exams! Chemistry was easy, only further mathses and decision to go, now!
Nothing much else I'd like to say [short post today], other than enough words to, in context, bid you Adieu.
Surely you can let me off. Matt was here! Played some Warhammer [I lost D=], went to the Brickcroft to climb trees, trolled Richard a bit, and generally didn't revise.
I'ma move on to today further down, so I'll do that song thing here. Should I give up on it? Be reet, surely it isn't much trouble to scroll past if you think it's a bad idea?
Day 20 - A song that you listen to when you're angry
I don't listen to music when angry, but if I did, I suppose 'Twould be...
***
Today, I did some revision in the morning, went to Avenham with some people, came home and did some more revision. Sounds like I've done a lot today, but I really haven't. I'm really tired, which is odd. I got up relatively late today [admittedly only by twenty minutes].
I may go on XBL with Matt, Conor, and Richard now. Probably go to bed soon.
'Nother song.
Day 21 - A song that you listen to when you're happy
I ain't posted in days. Don't care, I'll do a catch-up. Damn, my last post was Thursday?!? I can't remember half of the things that happened since then.
At some point between then and now Jason, Matt, Andy and me played some Warhammer. I may or may not have managed to convince Jason to buy some. It'd be ace if he did. After that... some other stuff happened...
The carnival! on Sunday [I think] we went to a Caribbean carnival. That was... alright. Okay, so I can't remember exactly what happened =_=
Then there was, like, Monday. And Tuesday. Damn I'm useless. This is why I need this blog, so I can log events so I remember what I've done!
Today, then. Imy, Hikari, Phil and Conor came to mine. I'd sort of planned on watching a film or something, but we ended up going to a field, then the Bakery, then the Brickcroft. 'Twas great fun, climbing on trees and whatnot.
Erm... tomorrow? Matt's coming round, methinks, to play some more Warhammer! I should be revising tomorrow. And today. And tomorrow. Yeah...
Nearly quadded that ellipsis.
I've got Matt round tomorrow, I've got the option of going to Avenham on Friday, and Richard's on Saturday. Too much for me, I'm not that social. I'll probably give Avenham a miss, probably go to Richard's. Exams Exams Exams! Gotta revise for chemistry at some point, but further maths is just more important! I do NOT want to re-sit this. I want to get a B overall in chemistry overall too, if at all possible. Hope for a high C in this exam. Vicky'll be disappointed, but I don't care. I hate chemistry.
I'm tired.
I'll do those song things:
Day 14 - A song that no one would expect you to love Day 15 - A song that describes you Day 16 - A song that you used to love but now hate Day 17 - A song that you hear often on the radio Day 18 - A song that you wish you heard on the radio Day 19 - A song from your favorite album
I'm guessing people don't expect much from my taste in music. Hmm.
I'm guessing not too many people have heard of that one, so you wouldn't expect me to love it.
Describes me? That's also tricky.
That song's just amazing. Maybe it doesn't describe me, but I'd like it to [if that makes sense].
Used to love, now hate. Hmm. That's a bit easier.
That fits the bill.
Don't listen to the radio, so that's tricky. I'm trying to remember the last time I listened to the radio. Ooo, I heard this one once!
Wish I heard... That'd have to be a good song. Sorry if I've used this one before.
Favourite album. Easy one, I discussed this with Jamie yesterday.
Ok, it's becoming rather obvious that I don't listen to much other than Radiohead.
