TV Adverts just get better and better these days, I swear. You can see the Of the Day at the end to see what I’m on about!

 

Not much happened today, it was a pretty slow and boring day, with three lessons having no teacher, and two lessons just spent doing barely anything at all. Nothing funny happened, nothing interesting happened. NOTHING. =(

 

However, this evening, I completed Wanted: Weapons of fate in one sitting, from start to finish. It was a lot easier then I expected to to be to be honest. Ah well.

 

Ciao!

 

Video of the day:

Well, I’m bored. :D

 

Wednesday was very basic. Nothing big happened at all at college, and I’m spending all my time playing videogames from lovefilm.

 

Anywho, I must dash, games to play, coursework to do, etc etc :P

 

I’ll try to give you some more material on other days! So these small posts won’t show up too often :)

 

Ciao!

Tuesday!

 

But first, Monday.

 

Monday was quite possibly the worst Monday I’ve encountered in 2010. It starts with me going to bed late as I was up talking to some friends I hadn’t spoken to in a while, so I didn’t hit the bed till 2AM, so I then had to get up at 7AM for college! What a suck.

 

So, I finally managed to get to college in one piece. The events at college didn’t really consist of much, other then me almost falling asleep all day, and discovering that while I was gone for one lesson, my colleagues in Performing Arts had turned my character into some sort of cross-dressing gay that kissed a (wo)man called Elton… *sigh*

 

Then after this mayhem, I had a driving lesson. Quite possibly my worst driving lesson. Whether the car wasn’t agreeing with me, or I wasn’t agreeing with the car, I don’t know, but things just didn’t go well.

 

TUESDAY!

 

Ahaa, finally hit the Tuesday mark. Today was quite possibly the laziest day for college. It starts off with me having a free period first, where I just sat around doing nothing. I then went to ICT where we were supposed to do “research” for our next essay, but I just sat there doing nothing. I moved along to BTEC business after break where we had a short taught lesson, which consisted of filling out a sheet with answers I learnt 2 years ago! Back to ICT again after this, to which the teacher didn’t show up till 10 minutes from the end, so we didn’t really do much!

 

Then it was lunch, followed by the almighty “double free” (two free periods back to back) that I have every tuesday afternoon. It consisted of sitting there filming jaws on a mobile phone and playing with a pack of cards.

 

Upon my arrival home I discovered that two new Lovefilm discs had come, which were Quantum of Solace (QoS) and Vin Diesels Wheelman. I immediately hoped on to QoS and managed to complete it by the end of the evening. You may be going WHAT?! but it turns out it was a short game, and took me under 5 hours to complete. Tomorrow I send it back and move onto Wheelman, which I’m hoping is a good game…

 

There, I did it. I gave you full content! I gave you behind the scenes access to my ENTIRE two days :O I hope you liked it.

 

Until tomorrow…

 

Picture of the day:

I learned today that Jiffy is about 1 100ths of a second.

 

So, Back in a Jiffy.

 

Unfortunately, I’m lying, and I won’t be back until tomorrow. I give you my word that I shall have more information for you!

 

 

Ciao!

Oh my, I said I was going to write more…but I have nothing to write!

 

Unfortunately it’s back to school tomorrow, as half term ends, so I’ll hopefully have more to right about!

 

I forgot to send back Dark Void, I keep meaning to (As in, yesterday) but I didn’t get round to it! Lets hope I remember to do it tomorrow.

 

I wrote more! I did it, not much more, but it was more :P

 

Ciao!

 

 

Video of the day:

I don’t know what to write, what to say, or what to do here any more! Ah well, I’ll have more tomorrow, I promise!

 

Bye.

 

Picture of the day:

So, I sent Condemned and Operation Flaspoint : Dragon Rising back, and I got Dark Void today! Dark Void happens to be absolutely awesome, I recommend it as a great game for anyone that loves third person games.

 

But you see, as it’s still half term, I’ve got nothing to write about! So I shall depart once more.

 

Ciao!

 

 

Picture of the day:

There isn’t really much I can insert into here as per, damn you half-term. :P

 

Condemned and Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising came today, unfortunately they’re both absolutely horrible games, so I’ll be sending them right back tomorrow. Condemned just takes FOREVER to get to a really small point, and Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising has controls which are too complex for something that is near realistic.

 

Anywho, I shall depart now!

 

Ciao!

 

 

TV Advert of the day (EVER!)

I laughed so much at this, don’t worry, the mouse isn’t real…

Maybe one day Royal Mail will deliver my lovefilm discs when they’re supposed to….now I won’t get them till tomorrow =/

 

On the other hand, I completed Dead Space, a completely awesome game. Sent it back today also. Didn’t really want to, but knowing the royal mail I can’t hold onto these things anymore. Let’s hope they come tomorrow :)

 

Speaking of tomorrow….

 

Ciao! :P

 

 

Video of the day:

It’s awesome, and takes the mick out of Michael Bay…obviously :P

Lool.

 

Was up early this morning, 7AM, for a two hour driving lesson at 8AM!

 

I can now proudly say I can do a 3-point-turn, otherwise known as a “Turn in the road”. So much fun.

 

Other then that, Tuesday was pretty boring. my disc from Lovefilm came, it was Dead Space. Just so happens to be an AWESOME game. I’m hoping to complete it tomorrow so I can send it back! ^_^

 

Anyway, I shall speak to thee tomorrow.

 

Ciao!

 

Picture of the day:

I Lol’d!

I said I would post more today! And I WILL!

 

Huraahhhh!

 

Royal Mail….they suck…really.

 

I was expecting the next disc to come from Lovefilm today…did it? Noooooo.

 

Royal Mail need to be shot, hung, drawn, quartered (Everyone in the business this is) and then thrown into a lake.

 

Why can’t we have another business deal with the national mail? I know I know no postal company is as big as Royal Mail, but with the current unemployment rates, I’m sure LOADS of people wouldn’t mind being a postman/woman, so if someone hired all of these people, they’d have a massive company ready to roll. You then take the fact that if someone replaces Royal Mail, most of their postmen would have to be laid off, so the new company then hires these, and could possibly start deliveries on sundays and so on! it would be awesomes.

 

 

There, I wrote more ^_^

 

 

Of the day;

Song of the day

Also from a TV Programme I watch, called NCIS. Well, the song isn’t from NCIS, but it’s a VERY Good video! ^_^

Too tired to care…

 

I’m just making this post to stick to my one post a day rule!

 

Sorry, I love you blog, but you know, I’m either too busy, too lazy or just not enough to write about :P

 

I shall be back tomorrow though, I promise.

 

Ciao. . .

 

 

Song of the day:

Grand Funk Railroad – Some kind of wonderful

http://open.spotify.com/track/7HVnyDvPqbtLsZCjIHsMtj

 

P.S. Happy valentines! Kind of…

Kane and Lynch: Dead Men! Such a pain!

 

The Havana mission happens to be the most frustrating thing I’ve played throughout my entire videogame career. It’s such a pain in the backside!

 

I’ve been trying to do it all evening, but I aren’t getting anywhere. I just need to finish this game then I can put it away! *raaage*

 

Other then that my saturday was boring. I didn’t go out, as per the usual, but I didn’t have anywhere to be! :P

 

Until next time…

 

 

Picture of the day:

So, not much to post again today. As stated,I want to, but I’ve got no idea what to post!

 

College takes up so much time, and unless you wanted an entire lesson plan, I wouldn’t be able to write about the entire day, as it would be stunningly boring!

 

However, one thing I can write about is an awesome YouTube video I found, which also happens to be the “Of the day” today! See more below :P

 

Ciao!

 

 

Video of the day:

This video is completely awesome, there must be 50+ films in that clip. Several of them look absolutely amazing, and I want to see them! The only major disappointment I find is that out of that clip I’ve seen about 10 films, I really want to find them all now! Should you have any suggestions from the above clip, let me know in the comments below!

I’m going to try and make a longer post today!

 

By try I mean I won’t actually try, but I’ll see how much I can end up writing and see whut happensss! Not much happened today, other then me almost forgetting to make this post (Damned coursework – again!) but I suppose coursework isn’t all to blame. I spent a large chunk of this afternoon playing and completing Red Faction: Guerrilla, which happens to be an absolutely AWESOME game!

 

You see, it’s happened again. I want to write, but I’ve run out of things to write about!

 

Blah blah, blah blah blah.

 

Ciao :P

 

Website of the day:

 

http://www.cad-comic.com/

 

It’s an awesome Online web comic posted every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Epicly funny.

I’m sorry blog, I feel this is too much of a one way relationship. All I do is give give give give give and I never get anything back.

 

Lets hope you can work on this…

 

 

Until another time…

Twosday!

 

Not much fun, sent back my Lovefilm DVD’s yesterday, so I had nothing to play today! Hopefully they’ll be here tomorrow though.

 

As per, I’m doing work AGAIN (>:( ) So I’ve got to dash (AGAIN!). If you want someone to blame, my ICT Teacher(s) will fully accept it no doubt :)

 

Cheerio.

 

Video of the day:

Sad face.

 

I awoke this morning to find myself feeling incredibly ill, so I had the day off as I couldn’t even move from my bed =/

 

I then had the strenuous task of deciding which Lovefilm DVD’s to return from my games challenge ,as I was considering holding on to one to keep me occupied until the new ones came. I then had to go for a driving lesson, but luckily I felt much better.

 

Anyhow, see you some other time, gotta dash as usual.

 

Ciao!

 

Song of the day:

Completed Godfather 2, it’s awesome.


In other news, NEVER play Turning Point fall of liberty. It was actually PAINFUL to play a game with so much fail.

And sue me, because I’m leaving you with a half-assed post again :)

Ciao!


Picture of the day:

Batman Arkham Asylum – Complete!

 

Such an awesome game, I couldn’t let it down from the second I started playing it. All in all I took about 3 30 minute breaks, other then that I played it from start to finish, with a total game time of about 7/8 hours ;O

 

My next game is Godfather 2, which I started earlier today, and I intend to play tonight, and right through till I finish it tomorrow (sunday)

 

Anyway, as per usual, I have to go back to doing what I was doing! I have work to do unfortunately.

 

Ciao!

 

 

Of the day today is: Of the day!

 

I figured I would make Of the day of the day as I felt random and didn’t have time to find anything.

The discs came! The discs came!

 

College was a boring day, and at about midday I sent at text to my brother asking if they had arrived, and he replied with yes! I know I seem to be getting over excited over such a small event, but I like to prove to myself that I can accomplish stuff, therefore setting myself challenges is the way forwards.

 

I’ve been eagerly wanting to play Batman Arkham Asylum ever since my friend played it and kept abnormally quiet about it, but as soon as I mentioned it he said it could quite possibly be the best game of all time. So, I settled into it this evening with the intention to finish it today, that way tomorrow I can start on a different game (By the end of these 3 weeks I’m going to be filled with storylines!)

 

Anyhow, I must return to the game! Things to do, people to see, so on, so forth…

 

 

Ciao!

Noooes! My discs didn’t come today which completely threw me off my game plan :( Let’s hope they come tomorrow and I can get a day late start!

 

Other then that, I am starting to lose, I rarely find the time to post to my blog, but I don’t want to break my resolution! Must…keep….going

 

Ehhhh

 

Tomorrow shall be better

 

Ciao

 

Chocolate bar of the day:

 

Wispa Gold!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

These are awesome, and everyone should try one at least once in their life!

Wow.

 

This week has gone pretty fast. Here I was expecting it to be long and boring, yet tomorrow is going to be Thursday! Tomorrow is also the start of my challenge (assuming my discs arrive on time). This challenge is for me to complete 16 games over three weeks! Mad? Maybe. But I’m going to try it.

 

The way I’m doing it is hiring the games from Lovefilm, I’ve already got 16 games queued up, and I’m just waiting for the first one to arrive. When it does, the 3 week timer will start from then, and I’ll make a post here saying so! For anyone interested in what games I’ll be playing, check the list below:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The list also goes in order of priority, the ones at the top will come first, with the ones at the bottom coming last. Therefore, the first three games to arrive should be Batman the Gofather an Turning Point fall of liberty.

 

Lets hope they come tomorrow!

 

Ciao!

Anecdote (small story of my life) of the day:

 

This post is rather late! I’ve got about ONE MINUTE to post it!

College was same ol same ol

 

Home was same ol same ol

 

The evening however, progressed well. I never got round to watching 24 or Wild at Heart, something that makes me feel funny bunny because I love watching my programs, but I never got the time! I spent the majority of the evening on Burnout Paradise (I’m addicted, okay?! The first step is admittance :P) and another hour or so fixing a defunked computer for my father (The damned thing sounds like a bomb powering up from 24!)

 

Anyway, I must dash back to my Media Studies coursework before I forget to do it! (Speaking of forgetting, I forgot to go to an ATM which made me saaaaaaaaad faaaaaaace, but fear not, I shall have to dash down tomorrow :O)

 

Ciao!

 

Picture of the day:

For some reason, whenever I think of the word Sunday, I think of Ted Bundy. I’m not entirely sure where I know Ted Bundy from, but when I googled his name, I saw that the link for Ted Bundy’s wikipedia page was Purple, meaning I had visited it before, and I have no idea why! For those that don’t know, Ted Bundy is (was) a serial killer who was sentenced to death and killed via electric chair (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Bundy)

Anyway, getting away from ancient serial killers, sunday was a pretty plain day for me, as I spent the majority on Burnout Paradise, and then complaining because it started snowing (AGAIN!) I hate the snow now, it was fun at first when it caused snow days, but on the days that aren’t snow days it makes it a pain to get anywhere and always leads to a snowball in the face :(

Anyway, I shall see you tomorrow, when I’ll talk about Wild at Heart and possibly 24 (if it’s on)!

Ciao


Picture of the day:

So, I found a game to play! The game I happened to choose was Burnout Paradise, and I managed to fly through it and got to a Class D license (Methinks), and I intend to continue tomorrow!

 

The other stuff I did on my saturday was watch The Hangover, and The Matrix! Both amazing films, ensuring hilarity and some dramatic action at the same time :)

 

Anyhow, back to Burnout Paradise I go.

 

Ciao!

 

 

Song of the day:

YAYYYYYYYY!

 

Thank heavens it’s friday! No more working till sunday evening (All that coursework we young’ns leave till the last second :P) and a weekend of fun before that.

 

I currently have nothing planned for my Saturday apart from the arrival of a new cat, but I’m hoping to find a videogame of some sorts that will quash my endless boredom and allow me to have the fun that I’ve always wanted!  If you have any suggestions as to what game I should play/buy, let me know in the comments below!

 

I now however have to dash as I’m playing a round of L4D2 with a friend – an epicly fun game that you can play whenever you want, regardless how you feel!

 

Until tomorrow…

 

Ciao!

 

 

Song of the day:

Thursday

 

Oh what fun, typical college-ness followed by an absolute boring evening of me trying to get my Performing Arts coursework done! I tell you, it absolutely sucks.

 

So now I’m making this post uber quickly whilst trying to do my coursework and talk to friends, whilst trying to watch a film! What a multi-tasker I am :)

 

I should have a better more complex post tomorrow as it’s Friday, the day before the weekend!

 

See you then

 

Ciao!

 

 

Song/Video of the day:

Can’t say much because I’m being chased by a man called Butch,

On the run, not for fun, he’s tracking me down like a stalking clown,

I’ve got to go, I’ve got to remain low,

Thanks for reading anyway!


Ciao!

Yeargh me hearties! Lets go plunder the dubloons from ye great ol’ landlubbers.

 

Disturbing intros aside, I couldn’t really think of any other way to introduce this post so I let my sheer crazy write it for me, let me know what you think!

 

I didn’t really get up to much today outside of college, the only major thing I recall doing was making a start on cleaning my bedroom, which I’ve let turn into a tip over the christmas period, therefore it’s due for a good ol’ spring cleaning! Unfortunately, due to the scale of said tip, I wasn’t able to finish it today whilst doing my coursework, listening to music, talking to friends and playing my daily dosage of video games so I’m returning to the task tomorrow, in “The battle against the tip: Revenge of the crawl space”.

 

Ta-dah.

 

Ciao!

Song of the day:

I just wasted my entire damned evening moving washing machines for a pathetic £10! What a rip >:(

 

Washing machine A needed to be moved from Location Y to Location Z. So we prepped for the haul by unloading my fathers vehicular transport and put the seats down in the back. We then headed to Location Y where we discovered the washing machine was a pain in the backside to get out. We managed to walk it along the carpet and got it into the back of the car using a trolley thing-a-majig. Upon doing this, we also discovered a rather heavy box of books needed to be moved to Location Z too so we grabbed them.

 

We then spent the next 30 minutes in transit to Location Z, where we discovered that they didn’t actually have any immediate intention to USE the washing machine, as Washing Machine B was just leaking. So, Captain Handyman (Aka my father) looked into and found the parts that needed replacing, and the Washing Machine A was just ditched in the back garden at Location Z. After this we unloaded the box of books, and then spent the next 30 minutes going home. This may not seem like much, but this took us TWO AND A HALF HOURS, completely wasting my evening, disrupting valuable gaming time! It takes the mick :’(

 

To cheer myself up, I absorbed myself into funny pictures from teh internet, which are listed below as the Of the Day

Hi!

 

<Insert long boring paragraph about how I managed to sleep in longer then I wanted to, spend the entire afternoon playing Video games, watching films and TV Programmes on YouTube. Also you may want to include extremely annoying pussy cats, and absolutely anything else you can think of>

TV Programme of the day:

 

Misfits

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Misfits is an absolutely awesome show about teenagers on community services who get caught in a wacky storm and end up with superpowers! If you live in the UK, you can watch it on YouTube at the following link: http://www.youtube.com/show/misfits

So, Saturday was a plain day. Me and my friends decided not to venture out to the Cinema due to marches being held in our local city centre, one by the EDL (English Defence League) and one by the UAF (Unite Against Fascism). If you know anything about these groups, you’ll know they are the exact opposite of other, which makes the equation EDL + UAF = Riot. It wasn’t really a riot, but more of a scramble, with 15 people being arrested and 4 police officers being taken to hospital. The turnout however was massive, with 1,500 people for the EDL, 600 police officers and 300 UAF.  Here is the news article for it from the BBC http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/staffordshire/8476873.stm

 

In other news, the Weekend Deal on Steam this weekend is rather awesome! The “Company of Heroes Complete Pack” has been reduced by 75% so it is now just a low £7.49! I of course snapped this deal up in an attempt to quash my boredom, and the games are downloading as we speak.

 

Anyhow, I’m off now to go on webcam with a woman that really makes me laugh till I’m near death! She’s made of pure evil =’(   (Only joking)

 

Ciao

 

 

Of the day:

 

Video/Song of the day (I was unsure what to class it as, as the Song isn’t good without the video, and the video isn’t good without the song!)

 

So, there I was thinking Friday would be awesome. The end of 5 long days of working, and the beginning of the weekend, but this Friday was terrible.

 

It starts during school, when some pillock thought it’d be a good idea to burn toast, setting the fire alarm off. So, as the building was evacuating, the fire alarm shut off! With every student dazed, we slowly wandered back to our classrooms only to hear ANOTHER fire alarm go off! At this stage, no one knew whether to go out or in, teachers were going left and right, Gigantic Dave was lost in a circle and the head teacher was standing there like a moose. So, we all went back to class and this alarm shut itself off. Fandabbiedosie. (I’m not entirely sure where I got this word from, but I use it frequently when wanting to sound sarcastic :P)

 

The rest of the day went pretty normal, until I got home, where I was struck with a sheer boredom I have never been struck with before! This boredom stuck with me all night up until the point of this post, and will probably continue afterwards. Luckily I had a good friend on MSN to accompany me during my complete boredom, and for this, I thank you greatly for making me laugh when I didn’t want to! (You know who you are =])

 

I’m now getting drowsy and tired, but I’m going to stay up for the sake of it.

 

Ciao

Video of the day:

So, here we are. One day left till that weekend we all look forward to. I really think they should make a weekend three days long rather then two, so you can spend the first day recovering from a week of work, then the second day having fun, then the third day recovering from your day of having fun!

 

Anyway, today was another average day. I spent the majority of the night talking to an awesome friend of mine about nearly everything from TV programmes to family! I’ve only known them for 4 days and we’ve discussed nearly everything. You, m’lady, are awesome =D

 

See you all tomorrow

 

Ciao

Just a quick post, nothing major as I’m in a dash!

 

Today was pretty simple, one of my lessons was cancelled giving me an extra free, but it was the most boring free period ever. New episode of Scrubs today, which was pretty hilarious, feel free to find it online at a site I’ve linked you previously :D

 

Of the day:

 

TV Programme of the day!

 

Scrubs – Season 9

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I know the picture isn’t really appropriate as it has the wrong cast, but it is the best I could find! I recommend you watch ANY episode of scrubs, as they’re all hilarious :)

So, this tuesday was the same as any other tuesday. I woke up late, rushed myself off to college, had a driving lesson, came home, watched another double bill of 24, then cracked down on some urgent coursework that was over the deadline!

 

Today’s post is short because I don’t really have much to talk about! So, I shall spam it with ‘Of the Day’ instead. As I lacked content in this post, I shall give you THREE of the days! :O

Website(s) of the day!

 

http://cheezburger.com/sites

 

Yes, it’s a “Series” of websites (from a company). I visit these daily and they always make me lol! They also provide me with Pictures of the day :D

 

 

P.S Here is a special mention to my friend: Cheer up, you can get through it :3

So, when it comes to TV programmes, I’m weird. If it’s a show only being broadcast in America, I’ll find a way to watch it online. This means I watch it the day after it aired in America. But recently, I’ve found myself doing the same for British shows. Rather then go to the TV when it wants me to watch the show, I just wait for it to come online, then watch it when I want to watch it! I are genius I tell you.

 

As the title shows, I got round to watching the epic 24 double bill and Wild at Heart today, which were all just completely awesome. So awesome, that they’ve made me postpone this post till now (10:25PM!). Therefore, I can’t really add much more material as I’m tired, but I’ll do a simple of the day :D

 

Picture of the day:

 

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOES

 

The end of the weekend! It not good!

 

Tomorrow be the dreaded college, something which everyone fears, yet they’re there voluntarily, like me!

 

On the plus side, I went to see Avatar today (in 3D of course!) and it was rather awesome! I do admit that the story doesn’t really advance much, but the special effects are just epicly blinding.

 

Now I have to dash – things to do, people to see, so on, so forth.

 

Today’s of the Day is:

 

TV Programme of the day:

 

24

 

24 starts again today in America, so anyone in Europe can usually catch it the day after it is aired by finding it online! The place I check is http://www.ninjavideo.net/cat/2239, so feel free to tune in :D

So, I spent the entire day around my sisters house, helping her pack as she is moving to a new house! Unfortunately, for the majority of the day, we were locked in a constant battle to see who could kill the other one. My weapon was laughter, hers was bad/rude jokes, and attempting to tickle me to death.

 

We were locked in this constant battle all day, but I think it’s safe enough to say that I won, because I got her to the stage that I just had to say the word “Laugh” and she would start! ^_^

 

The ‘Of the Day’ today is:

 

Song of the Day:

 

Finally! That one day of the week we all crave, the precious Friday! Spent the night talking to friends and catching up on some video games I had missed time playing! One worth a mention is Zero Gear, which is currently on a free weekend on the gaming client Steam. Feel free to head over there and take advantage of this weekend! It’s basically like Mario Kart, but more fun, and on the PC :D

 

So, this leads to the Of The day, which is obviously Game of the day, Zero Gear!

 

Here’s a picture of my character/Kart combination :D

 

So, today was fun…not.

 

School was typical and boring, like usual. I’ve recently had a bout of tiredness, and laziness, especially with coursework deadlines due and so on so forth. However, I shall keep posting every day!

 

 

There shall be no of the day today due to me being too tired, I do apologise!

 

 

See you all tomorrow though =)

So, today I decided I would go to KENYA!

 

I know, that seems massively random, but let me explain. Our school is twinned with a school in Kenya, and once a year, a group from our school visits said school in Kenya for a week, and they come to ours. So, I decided I would volunteer to go on said trip. Other then this, this Wednesday was pretty boring.

Picture of the day:

 

So, today was the grand showing of the beginning of Survivors Series 2, something which I’ve been waiting for for a looooong time :D And, as per expected, it was awesome, but I fear an overuse of special effects made it a bit tacky, but none the less, I enjoyed it!

 

Whilst I was watching said show, I buckled down on my media studies coursework, in which I have to create a music magazine front cover, contents page and double page spread. During this time, I was able to create the beauty you see below:

 

The of the day is:

 

Song of the day, which as per usual I can’t be bothered to obtain the MP3, then upload it somewhere for you fellows to download, so it comes in the form of a video:

 

 

Ciao!

 

 

P.S Sorry for the lack of updates on Twitter, but at school finding a signal on my phone is like finding a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow!

So today was another stunningly boring day at college, nothing new happened, just the same old malarky. So, as you can tell, there was no snow day, and as I type this, I believe sleet is coming down outside, as well as a rapid increase in temperature.

 

After ye olde college I went for an epic 2-hour driving lesson, in which I managed to half-ass reverse a car around a corner (something which should never have to be done by any human being EVER), and finally overcome my fears that the oncoming traffic isn’t going to crash into me – they’re just mad and act like it.

 

Unfortunately this blog post is the last thing I’m doing today, as I feel rather unwell, so, I am retiring to the bed, in hopes to get a good nights rest before my A-Level ICT exam tomorrow morning *yay*.

 

 

The of the day to day is:

 

Catchphrase of the day: “Stay fresh, cheese bags!” as recently quoted from Ashens’ latest video on YouTube.

So, today was like any other sunday, slow, lazy, no effort required. I managed to complete The Ballad of Gay Tony, something which I’m proud of, and had some frolicking good fun with a friend on Pirate Ship Wars.

 

My hopes now are that it is going to snow heavily with a good covering, to prevent those thieves that rob time (schools) from opening. We’re forecast a light snow coverage all through the night, so lets hope the weather forecasters aren’t wrong for once!

 

Today’s "Of the day” is

So, today was a pretty basic Saturday. Woke up later then I wanted to, started playing through The Ballad of Gay Tony (that I borrowed from a friend!) and so far it’s been pretty damned epic. I must say though, I’m not one for the abnormal colour scheme, I feel it distracts one from the violent content of the game, and puts you in a happy place (yes, I do realise that this emphasises on the ‘Gay’ part of the title, but still!)

 

After this I went on an epic travel to the local Cinema to see Sherlock Holmes, which was an alright film, but was a rather big let down from what I was expecting!

 

The Of the Day today is:

 

Game of the day – The Ballad of Gay Tony. The reason being is I’ve just done a mission where you blow up a crane, train and a plane with sticky bombs, the sort of high-paced action missions you expect from any GTA game.

 

See you all tomorrow! :D

In for a quickie!

 

 

Kicked arse at monopoly, having a grand total of £38,100,000

 

 

Of the day is word of the day

 

Gesticulate – to make gestures or motions when speaking, sometimes instead of speaking.

 

 

Got swamped with work so this is JUST pushing it for time! :D

I got so wrapped up in doing my ICT coursework and creating a video of me dancing that I completely forgot to post my of the day!

 

So, in a last minute rush, I went out and found this, just for you guys ;D

 

Video of the day, again! Because I’m a YouTube-aholic! ;D

 

 

So, unfortunately today wasn’t a third snow day, and I had to drag myself out of bed and off to “school” (It’s a college!). During the day my friend, who will be referred to as Miss Laugh-a-lot, informed me of a dire situation with one of my other friends, who is suffering from an ‘in-grown penis’. Regardless how weird this sounds, I assure you this is true!*

That aside, as soon as I returned home, I was quizzed by one of my readers as to why today’s post was not up! So, here it is. I’ve decided not to do a debate today, as doing one a day will slowly wear the idea out, and people will get bored of seeing the same thing over and over again :D

In other news, my quest for a bag of salted peanuts has finally been completed due to one loving brother who hand delivered them to my bedroom door, how touching. You may find it odd, that out of all the things I could want is a bag of roasted salted peanuts, but they are merely something to nibble upon when peckish!

So, there’s the basic run through of my day, and now to move onto the concerning news. One of my friends decided it would be a funny idea to see how famous he could get me – for no reason! So, he started his quest by creating a Facebook group at this link http://www.facebook.com/group.php?v=wall&ref=nf&gid=271733356468 at the time of posting the group has 107 members and still rising, trying to get myself famous for no reason. I’m yet to join the group myself, as I believe that would seem rather big headed, cocky and selfish, so I’m sitting back and enjoying the rise to fame :P

The “Of the day” will be posted later tonight.

Ciao.


*This is a fabrication of the truth, and I had what is effectively a gun held to my head forcing me to write said line, I apologise for any distress it causes to my readers.

I figured today I would do one bumper post today, to knock me up to 12 posts over 6 days, which is a perfect number for me.

So, today started like any other day, except for the fact it’s ANOTHER snow day! You may say I’m getting over-excited, but my school is legendary for not closing in rain, sleet or snow. Over the three and a bit years I’ve been there it only closed once, and then this year it closes twice in a row? It’s truly a memorable event. As you’ll know from yesterday, I spent a rather long time clearing my garden path, which has now been covered again (thanks snow! >:(), so it’s on my list to do today. Along with this, is to finish tidying my room, which looks like some scene from an earthquake movie.

Swiftly moving on, it appears I’ve managed to cause a debate a day with a news article that I reference to, so I figured why not continue it. Today’s article is some American news!
http://news.ninemsn.com.au/world/990188/boy-in-church-hurt-by-stray-bullet

There isn’t really much to say over this news item, other then the legalisation of weapons. In the UK, all weapons are strictly prohibited, apart from shotguns which can be obtained by going through a lengthy licensing process, and several inspections to ensure you have a place to keep the weapon and ammo safely, and then you actually have to find someone to sell you a shotgun. I believe that weapons should be legalised (with Permits obviously), so that people can have more self defence, or even a new hobby. Yes, you could say the murder rate by weapons will increase, but I believe self defence is a bigger priority then counter-acting murder.


And now to finish off my bumper post, we have the ‘Of the Day’
This is a ‘Song of the day’, but I don’t want to post the MP3, so it comes in the form of video (The song came before the video, obviously :D)




Until next time, I’m a mad rambler, signing off.

Thankfully I remembered that I need to do an ‘of the day’, so, here it is!

 

The ‘Of the Day’ today is *insert drum roll here*

I thought that was rather fitting for my next debate, which happens to beee….Maths.

 

Now, all of those who have gone through, or are going through, the standard UK Education system, you know what a torture maths can sometimes be. My debate today happens to be things like Algebra. To be honest, unless you’re going to be some sort of uber scientist or an engineer of somewhat, you don’t really need to KNOW algebra. I mean, look at me, it’s been over 6 months since my last maths lesson, and I haven’t done anything more complex then a percentage.

 

So, this leads me to the main point, is should our education system be changed? I believe more fitting choices could be made for the required learning, and then advanced stages could be applied to those who actually want them.

 

That is all, for now….

 

See you tomorrow, hopefully…. (Weather permitting :D)

Oh yes, let it snow indeed. Today was one of those legendary days of the year that teachers and students alike look forward to, the chance to have that extra day off, and this one has come at the best of times, a Tuesday, giving us a mid-week break before going back to school again. Admittingly yes, a Wednesday would be better, but you take what you can get and make the best out of it :P

Eep

Unfortunately my day did not go so splendidly, as I had no school to show up to, I was left wandering around at home, nothing planned, no work, no chores, nothing. Unfortunately, my parents took advantage of this and quickly lined up a list of tasks for me to complete. The first one of those was clearing the snowy filled path, which I thought seemed like a relatively easy task. After seeing how much snow was actually on the path, I made a quick sarcastic laugh then was forced to march on, clearing all the snow from the path. A picture of my work can be seen below.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The next task is clearing my legendary stack of paperwork that has built up in my bag, then after that it’s time for a good spring cleaning in my room. Damn you snow, damn you.

So, this is a memorable moment, eight post fourth day, so I’ve currently posted twice the amount of posts I should’ve! Ah well, more posts is better then not enough posts :P

 

I figured I would frequently give my opinion into a new article or a game, film, or some other media source. Even though you may not care about my opinion, I created this blog so I could ramble on and on, and then in one year look back and realize how mad I may be.

 

Now, the topic I’ve decided to discuss today is a rather old one of no importance, but to me it serves purpose. The Death Sentence. Now, I completely agree that some forms of the death sentence should’ve been abolished, like beheading and hanging, because they were a rather cruel way to go out. But, I believe we should’ve kept the lethal injection!

 

Why you may say in total madness? If someone came and raped and murdered your entire family, like most Hollywood movie stars, you would want to seek revenge and kill them. So, if we had the lethal injection, said criminal would serve their last years in prison, AND get killed? To me, it sounds like the sweetest deal you could ask for if they’ve just gone pillage the villager on you.

 

 

 

(On a completely unrelated note, that '”if they’ve just gone pillage the villager on you” is by far the most creative line I’ve come up with this year. I must say, I’m rather proud of it)

So, here we have, the first fourth of the year, and also the first Monday of the year. I don’t know about yours, but mine was near terrible. It started with the news that one of my best friends wouldn’t be at school (It’s a sixth form college, more commonly known as ‘school’ because it’s built into the high school I previously attended!), leaving me stranded without someone to communicate with for two out of my four lessons. To add to the boring-ness, my driving lesson after school was cancelled due to my instructor being stuck in the snow, meaning I would have to walk home. Fandabbiedosie.

Aside from all these downsides, I still had fun in my other two lessons, which were Performing Arts and ICT. In Performing Arts I revised my role as Lord Tom William Alexander Thompson, or Lord T.W.A.T for short :). And for ICT, we did a simple mock exam in preparation for the real exam next week. Then of course there was the catching up with old friends and what was missed out on over the Christmas period, which turned out to be…nothing.

So, without further ado, the ‘Of a day’ today is another video, but I think suits my overall feeling towards Mondays…




See you all tomorrow! You can follow my ‘updates on the go’ on Twitter to the right :D

Here’s my ‘Of the Day’ for the 3rd of January! Today is:

Video of the day!

 

For this, I picked the trailer for Salt, the new film starting Angelina Jolie, because I think it looks amazing :D

 

 

Considering I'm trying to do one post per day, I think I'm doing pretty good for having a third post in one day :P

I was browsing the internet, as I do, and I was struck by the genius idea to do an 'of the day' on every post.

Now, the 'of the day' can vary from Video of the day, word of the day, picture of the day, phrase of the day and so on.

So, without further ado, the first 'of the day' is the following!

Word of the day: Paraskavedekatriaphobia, which is the fear of Friday the 13th!

As a little extra for today, I decided I would post about a movie I watched today, called Dawn of the Dead.

Now of course, it was the modern version, as I'm too cool for the old ones (=D), and I figured I would exploit some obvious problems with this film. I remember the end of the film better then I do the start, so the first (SPOILERS AHEAD)



thing I'm going to mention is the two minibuses that you see at the end. These are used as 'armoured vehicles' to get from the mall to the dock. The main thing I'd like to draw your attention to is the second one, which is driven by Kenneth (played by Ving Rhames), and as you'll know if you've seen the film, as they enter a hard left turn, it spins over and crashes. Now, I personally would blame this on the driver, as it's clearly his fault. Unfortunately, the characters in this film don't seem to take this the same way, as they let Kenneth drive the OTHER armoured vehicle after he had crashed the first one! And what do you know, he goes on to crash the SECOND one into the pier at the Marina, trapping and eventually killing the oh so wonderful CJ.

The next thing I'm going to mention is their getaway to an island, obviously they've all been to the gun store and got plenty of ammo, so surely at the first island they arrive at, they would have enough ammo to fend off any attackers? And, who would be stupid enough to send all of them onto the island, just 'assuming' it would be safe, without any form of a backup plan? I for one would've moored off the coast slightly, and try to create an awful lot of noise in order to lure the zombies out, so you could see how bad the infection was.

The third point I'm going to make is the oh so wonderful twit that is Steve. As you'll know if you've seen the film, he ends up betraying the main characters by not staying behind to hold the maintenance access door open, for those returning from the gun store. Upon their return, they find Steve enjoying himself by the recently armoured vehicles, and CJ exclaims that he'll deal with him later. Where was this deal? To be perfectly honest, I would've expected CJ's character to be the type that would've shot or maimed Steve as soon as he found him, not just shout threats.

That's all for now folks!

So, as the 2nd of January draws to a close, I figured it was time for another post!

As a start to a new year, this is by far the most memorable! One of the biggest snowfalls I've seen, and my cat getting up to his unusual adventures...again (See the TwitPic feed to the right!)

Among the cats adventures, I had my own adventures to the local high street, amongst all the snow and ice (Didn't fall over!)

See you tomorrow....hopefully.

So, welcome to my blog.

I decided as a new years resolution, I would create a blog, and post to it every single day for the rest of 2010, and see how many followers I can get! Mad? Maybe, but I'm going for it anyway.

This blog will track my daily life, any announcements I have to make, so on, so forth. So, sit down, relax, and enjoy the ride of watching a teenager rabble on about his life.
