So today was my first checkout academy session, and it was scary.

Everyone on the course was either a checkout manager, a manager on options and on their placement or a team leader and had been for many years. i.e. they knew the job almost inside out and are fluent in stupid tesco jargon... except me that is.
Did I have a clue what anyone was on about? nope. especially as half of it was about self service checkouts and Cam is the only store in the world that doesn't have self service. I mean.. aaaaaahh

On the upside there were bowls of malteasers and minstrels so I occupied myself with those.

Can someone please give me a huge kick up the arse to write something please, I really want to do it but I just have no inspirado, this saddens me greatly.

I just read moon's LJ entry on which she explained that if you aren't in her 3 friend circles she don't like you. This does not however make her a bad person, it makes her a very good person, you see ive been thinking about this sort of thing of late and I'd much rather be a person who is liked and respected by a fair few people that they would want to associate with than a person who is a pushover and doesn't want to upset anyone so they are like by everyone. I wouldn't feel normal if i didnt disagree with people everyone in a whoile, ruffle some feathers and cause a bit of a ruckus with a carefully place harsh comment.
My problem is that I tend to choose one person and focus it all on them. At the moment its Tommy A. I mean yeh sure he's not my bestest best friend in the world but we have gone through alot together, we've known each other since we were about 4. But at the moment everyhting he does seems to just really really irritate me. Its probably not healthy, and id hate to think what it would be like to be on the receiving end of it all.

In other news, there isnt really much news at all. Nosh came back this wekend for her mummy's birthday and we had many a laugh on saturday night drinking wine and meeting johnny b's girlfriend, who is a very nice by the way. I felt a bit bad though because in jokes are the natural form of communication between most of us and the poor girl didn't understand what the hell was going, especially as she's italian and didn't understand the english slang. She is nice nonetheless though. Ad went back to Oxford yesterday and there were a few years, which I don't understand because he's coming back this weekend! I think I just don't like saying goodbye to him, standing on the doorstep and wathcing him leave is one of the hardest things.... pathetic aint i?! lolz

Last week I started my new job role i suppose. I'm a line runner for checkouts now, basically cuz im on options I have to get used to organising the checkouts, so slowly simon is going to be giving me more jobs and responsibilities to do, this week i start the staff training, which is about fire safety or something. Pat is teaching me how to do the change run in the mornings, which is fine exacept i have to be in work and ready to go at 7 in the morning and there are loads of bits of paper to fill in and theres no way I'll know what theyre all for, especially that early in the morning. I do not function properly at least until after 10 o clock.

gawwd im so hungry.

It would seem that I have failed slightly in providing regular updates to my journal, and for that I apologise, but at least now you get a nice big thwacking entry with all my recent doings.

So.. my last entry was dec 5th, before me and Moon went to Aberystwyth for a night of cocktails and lady-ish hilarity, nosh pulled.. as in a guy asked to make love to her in a ditch with a view... slightly creepy and we all drank far too much in all honesty meaning I spent the next morning throwing up, eating toast and throwing up some more BEFORE I had to drive 4 hours home.
Bleh.

After THAT New Year happened, and it was alright I suppose, it would have been better if half of us hadn't had worked long hours that day and could actually be bothered to be awake.Bless us. Me Nosh and Moon dressed up as the 3 musketeers which was quite cool.. unfortunately no bugger else dressed up. So we looked a little silly.

What I REALLY want to talk about though are the event of January 9th, two days ago when we had a right proper girlie day out. Oh yes, we went to London and got makeovers and got a professional photoshoot done and everything. It was LUSH. Seriously. I just can't wait til we get our photos back in a few weeks time because... wow we have never looked so beautiful I promise you. I've always wanted it done and it really didnt disappoint. We got free drinks and stuff too and a hand massage and a facial and make up and hair and yaaaaay, but bloody hell when i sat up and looke din the mirror I didn't recognise myself, it was sooo crazy! But yeh the photos will be posted soon and I'll pop them all on facebook.

Next thing, bloody hell WORK. I'm not doing night Academy anymore, which is good, instead I'm doing Checkout aacademy which starts on the 22nd in Bradely Stoke, theres a course there every Tuesday until 8th April when I have mmy sign off interview and THEN if I pass that I could be a manager! I mean whoa holy cow and blimey o' reilly, how quick was that?!?!?! Its good though because it means I'll be closer to my own house, a Toyota Yaris and money to start a club with Goz.

OH YEAH. Me and Goz have decided, in like 5 years time that our ultimate goal is to open a club, like a really good one, in a uni town with cocktail nights and student nights and theme nights and a VIP lounge and a Drum & Bass-ement and it will be awesome! We've decided we're going to work our asses of for the next few years so we can get loans and probably open one somewhere like Swansea. Nosh and Moon are terribly excited because they of course will be having VIP passes.
Now I know what you're thinking and no I am not kidding myself. This club will be opened, and we are perfectly aware that its going to be a bloody hard slog in getting it off the ground and making it popular enough to earn a decent revenue, but I know we'll do it, and we'll do it good. Its good becauseme and Goz have been friends ince we were like 3, so i know we aren't going to fall out or anyhting over something stupid like wallpaper and we work together really well. So be excited. really, please. Be excited.

Good evening ladies, gentlemen and genderless electronic equipment. Yes, I am fully aware that it has been rather alot of yonks since I last posted here, but I'm big, I'm blue, and I'm back and I'm here to tell you all the exciting things I have been up to.

Trust me it won't take long.

So my last post was Nov 19th... blimey o reilley's patchwork underpants, well at least ive already said that moon is home. Unfortunalement i havent really since as much of dear spoonface a I have liked (meaning like, I havent seen her as often not I haven't seen as much.. as in body parts?) sorry been on the cider. 20 years old and Im sat on my own drinking cider at 23.07 on a Wednesday night with company only from the cat with one eye,

alas.

anyway, first things first, LADY TIME is happnening soon, in that on the 14th December myself and Spoonface are descending ino the town of Aberverywelshplace to see Nosh pants, go out on the razz and beat up that curly haired boy, because thats what good friends do. On the Saturday we are bundling Nosh and a heap of her belongings into Hercules and taking her home. THEN im picking ad up and driving to Ebbwvale for a party at Laura and Jon's THEN on the Sunday I'm driving us to Milford to see the family and subject Ad to Jayne who will give him the once over (ooer). So that'll be a very busy yet awesomeley fuin weekend.

Moon is also a genius, I would like to mention, this is because she has already sorted out Christmas lady time, when the three of us are going somewhere to be made over and massaged and pampered and photographed for half a day and OMG how excitied are we?!?!?! Pretty bloody excited.

Otherly, I passed my options interview on Monday. Meaning I am now signed on. MEANING I am a trainee manager baby. MEANING in a few months i will be earning a darn sight more than I am now, and I'll have a different Uniform and I can buy a house and a nice car and hoorah!! all will be well.

elllo

bob reporting after a fairly long weekend that seemed to fly by... sounds weird huh?

well it began with a fireworks party at my fathers when there was much wine and merriment and sparkler which wi was spelling out rude words with.. Sammie came home and it was nice to see her and Duncan again as I havent chatted to them in a while.

On Saturday Liam came round my house at half eleven (I told him to come round at half twelve but hey whatev) and I dawdled a bit as Dave was at his nan's, then just as we were about to leave he rang us and said he was running late due to being seduced with a cream cake.

Umm eventually at 2.30ish we set of for the wonderful world of Aberystwyth and Sloshy pants (as in nosh, not pants with slosh in them cuz.. eiw) Yeh took about 3 1/2 hours to get there which wasn't too bad anf my god is nosh's pad posh. You think student digs and thing peeling woodchip wallpaper and crappy stanied carpets and brown net curtains. No, nosh's flat has 3 doubles bedrooms, one with ensuite and overlooks the marina!!! blimey.

So yeh we ate (alot of) chinese food then went out, just the four of us, to a load of bars. Dave started walking like Dick Van Dyke in penguin mode which ended in me singing 'Step in time' to some policemen and some grease dancing and a pan-galactic-gargle-blaster.

umm yeh
awesome

oh and I started my nano today (5 days late I know) umm... heres the teensy weensy dinky intro behind

When I was young I was fascinated with how things work. I used to take things apart with my Dad’s screwdriver when he wasn’t looking and put them back together again before he even knew what I’d done. Things like radios, electronic toys, typewriters, the way that you could press a button and as if by magic something would happen, all these tiny components were interconnected, they all did something, all of them had a job, a purpose. That’s what amazed me.

When I grew older and started going to secondary school I loved technology, not only did it allow me to break objects down into their key components and help me understand what exactly happened inside it that made things happen, I could make and create my own things too. By the time I was thirteen I had a nice little collection of my own creations. But also by that time, I’d gotten bored of electronic gadgets and gizmos, I’d become interested in something a little bit more exciting, a little more complex. The human race. The biology, the sociology and psychology of them. I just wanted to pick them apart – just like I’d done with my Mum’s toaster when I was seven, the one problem was they weren’t so easy to put back together again.

yeh I said it was tiny!!!

anyway thats all for now

adios!

Umm.. the Occy in Bangor rang me yesterday to invite for a job interview, which is weird considering I applied for the job a whole year ago and have since moved 5 hours south. But i guess it was a nice gesture.

Today was really great.

I got out of bed because I had to throw up. I'm really sick. I mean REALLY sick.

I feel unusual because my antidepressants are making me hairy.

I'm so stoned.

Last night I had to shave my entire body. Apparently, the lice that I caught from Amanda's friend are really hard to get rid of. I look quite strange with no hair and eyebrows. I'd post pictures, but my webcam is broken.

I want to tell the world that my girlfriend Amy is the bomb! She made pizza last night, and even though I burnt my lips on the cheese, it was awesome!!!

I am sharpening my knives before I go to work today, because I'm going to cut out Robert's heart and feed it to him for losing my mail.

Today, I got a digital camera! Yes! Here's some photos of my cock.

I want to say thanks to the world for absolutely fucking nothing! You all suck. I feel so alone, no one ever reads this journal, or even comments to let me know that I'm not suffering alone. It's cold here, and I want to die, but I cannot figure out how many of you to take with me when I go.

I went to the doctor yesterday, and he said I have bipolar disorder, which makes me different enough to be interesting, but the same as all the other cool people with bipolar disorder.

You should all do this quiz! It's amazingly accurate. You just put in your name and birthday, and it will tell you what your favourite sexual position is.

That's enough for now. But I'll leave you with this thought - sharing your life with strangers on the internet is the cheapest form of therapy available. Leave a comment and tell me I'm beautiful.

ellol

tommy a facebooked me tother day which is always nice, this means that the homeboys (apart from dave who \i see practically everytime I go shopping) does remember my existence and does still want to spend time with me. Will organise fag trip soon methinks.

Talking of fagtrips, in a crazy moment of madness I have once again taken on the responsibility(ish) of Group Holidaiii 08. And yes I am starting to organise it now, to prevent me ripping my hair out next June. Dunno when or where, whos going or how we're getting there, but thoughts there right?

Uhm... I'm in a bad mood and dont want to rant so I think I'll go now.

5. Book #4 -- next to the last sentence on page one hundred fifty

UPDATE

2007-10-09T15:36:03Z

well its been a while so heres a quickfire update of whats been going on.

OPTIONS: Me and kayleigh have been put forward to do Night Academy. Thisis a more condensed version of options which means we'll do it a darn sight quicker than we normally would. More importantly a hell of a lot quicker than the other three night staff who have been put on normal options. They are not pleased about this. One of them has been nice and understanding enough that its not our fault, we didn't ask to be put on it, infact our names were sent off before Shani even told us it existed. The other two aren't so pleased. One of them is being ever so nicey nice to my face and bitching like hell to everyone else, and the other one is being darn rude, ignoring me most of the time but when she does have to talk to me she's just snappy and nasty.
DO I CARE?: No, not really, this is going to sound really self centred but its not often I come across someone who really really dislikes me so I'm actually finding it quite funny, especially as I know alot of things that she doesn't concerning her application. The other point of the matter is, I'm not there to make friends with everyone, I'm there to get myself a career and if I make friends in the process then that's great. Plus who would want to be associated with a middle-aged woman who acts like a seven year old whe things don't go her way?

OXFORD: Uhh.. went to see Ad and his new house, which was nice. Except I now have a stinking cold, due to the fact that all of his housemates were ill when I went down. Still it was quite a nice few days, we went out for lunch and shopping and had a nice night in watching a film. Not quite the studentyness I was expecting but if everyones ill...
it was also great to see Ad, I know I saw him last weekend, and I'm going to see him this Thursday too, but I do miss him muchos. Like I miss all my unikids.

THIS WEEK: I went to glass class last night and got told off for using the yellow glass because it's expensive (uhmm, why put it in the box if we can't use it?!) and made a window hanger, a cactus picture and ... something else, we'll see how they look when the come out of the kiln next week.
Its Pips birthday on wednesday and shes having a big party on Friday (despite not being able to drink, walk or dance). Thats why ad's coming home, I havent had a good shin dig in a while so I'm quite looking forward to it, plus the hall is free if you spend £200 at the bar, so I'd better do my bit :)

...and thats actually all I can think of

How old?!?!?!

2007-09-22T19:20:39Z

I had a birthday and now i am twenty.
Hooray.

On Thursday I went to the pub with some people I love very much and some people I hardly know at all. Claire and Andy were there and Charles, and Liam, Goz, Grayce, Adam and Me. Then we got joined by Nancy, Tom, Nath and a boy who i still don't know.
It was fun, merriment was had, and then we went to Crapones. Which.. wasnt so good. But I enjoyed me night anyway.

So on my actual Birthday me ad nik and dad went to Berkeley Castle for a ghost walk. We went on a tour first of all and Dad scared the Bejeevahs out of me by blowing on my face letting me think it was a ghost. Then we did some vigil type things with a bobbin, and omg it moved. No one was pushing it, i checked, there was no funny business with magnets or anyhtign cuz a sceptical man checked al that too. Turns out we met one of the berkeley family blokes from the 1700s and one of the jailers who shoved a poker up kind Edward's bum. Call me gullible but it was all real, trust me. Oooh and I met Richy Felix from most haunted, no not saw, actually met, me and ad and some other people got lost and he showed us the way out, so it was a star studded evening for all. hoorah.

right im feeling crappy so I'm off to bed.

au revoir

As Cliche as it sounds, I have decided that this is the beginning of the rest of my life.
Starting yesterday with an hour long squash session.

You see, last Monday Nosh went back to Aber, today Leoners has gone back to Bangor leaving me BFF-less for the next 3 months or so (apart from when i go see them but I'm not entirely sure when it'll be yet.) Luke goes back tomorrow and Ad leaves on the 24th. Leaving me at home with Goz, Tom, Charles and Dave - as well as others but they're the important ones. Now this was the same position as i was in last year, and I ended up doing absolutely nothing with my time, seeing hardly anyone and I ended up getting a bit depressed.

Not this year, oh no. Because i am going to make damn sure that I get going out, I'm not accepting any 'I have work tomorrow' excuses, we all work, if we were to work round everyones working schedules we'd never see eachother. I'm going to spend this time doing stuff that I've really wanted to do but just haven't got round to yet: go out clubbing in Brizzle, actually finish a fic (NaNo is coming up I notice), compile my cookery book, get fit, sort out the kitchen, re-arrange bank acocunts so I can afford a house at some point. All that sort of stuff.

I don't want to get bored, I spent most of last year bored and unhappy so I'm going to be proactive and get my arse of the sofa, switch of the darn laptop and bloody well sort myself out.

*cue inspirational music*

Reading back on it, that entry does seem a bit cheesy, I didn't mean it to, it's what I'm going to do. I'm going to prove all those twatarses that stick their noses up at me because I dropped out that I can be successful without the several years at 'grown up school' as Leoners put it, I can get a good job and be happy and not have tens of thousands of pounds worth of debt and a certificate saying 'yeh she does know quite a bit about *insert subject here*. Don't get me wrong, I'm not putting down those that go to uni, its a great experience, i just think those people that have been treating me like crap ever since I dropped out should be a little more open minded.

Got it?
Good.

Au revoir.

Agreeing with spoonface's post, Gorup Holidaiii 07 was awesome, sure it was a bit weird having 12 people in 2 vans, nearly had a bit of homicide one night but the person in question wikll be repenting for much time to come, which will teach them a lesson hopfeully.

One thing I am disappointed with is the lack of photos from the week, we were so busy havin an awesome time we kind of forgot to make the lasting (and in some cases incriminating) photographic evidence. Alas.

The sad thing is that I will not see a good half of those lovely people for a few months now because theyre all meanies and going back to uni. pffff, at least I still have some home boys left and we'd better all make an effort to see eachother this time or I shall not be pleased.

In other news, I am having yet another career rethink after completely convincing myself that I havent got onto the a level options course. All sort of things keep popping into my mind at the moment which is fine, if only I had the mental capactiy to a) remember them all and b) decide which to do. The problem is the ideas are so varied in subject because I really dont have a clue what I want to end up doing. Because of this I am currently trying to make a criteria list.

Here goes:

1. I must be somewhere where i can make friends - i.e working in a sociable kind of job, pref not an office but still... maybe going back to college and doing more a levels or whatever and who knows a uni trip may be on the cards again if I find a subject i actually really want to do.

2. has to be fun and varied - dead end office jobs are out of the question.

...and thats all I can think of for now. Options so far include:

1. Normal options at tesco.
2. Normal options whilst I am building an art portfolio to study interior design
3. Re-doing a levels - in what I really don't know, Sciences? English? Art? No idea as yet.
4. or some other kind of course... cookery? glass? anything else...
4. Something to do with glass. I can mosaic, and I'm learning to fuse at the mo, after i want to o advanced fusing and glass blowing too.

...and thats it too.

hmph.

any suggestions, stick em in a comment box or email or whatev, I'd be very grateful!

I'm going on me 'olidays on saturday!

hooray!
it will be fun. we have made many plans. Me and Moon even invented a game called 'solem' twister' which promises to be fairly hilarious, providing i remember to take the twister mat.
Also all the drinking games and the prank wars are going to be grrrreat. I'v got goz, grayce, charles, johnny b and ad in my caravan and we are going to rawwwk at it. Though in fairness Luke and george are in Nosh and Moon's van...so we will have a bit of a challenge.
But yaaaaay

I'm dead excitied.

Still no news about the options course, which is getting a bit ridiculous if I'm honest its been a month now, you'd think they'd be a bit more understanding that people really do need to know what their future holds.

I may ring Shani tomorrow.

ah well..

HOLIDAY!!!!!

So more good news from the Bob Camp.

Yesterday me and Nikki learned the whole dance to Michael Jackson's Thrilller.

Oh yes we did.

Granted, we still can't do it completely off by heart, give us a week and we'll be fine. Theres a whole 40 part 'how to' thing on youtube if you feel the urge.
So I got back from work 45 mins ago from what was possibly the most boring shift the world has ever known, basically because all the work had been dpne so we just found ourselves mosying around the store trying to look busy and accidentally taking longer tea breaks than we should. Life is hard for those who work nights.

And then on my way back some crazy kid *cough*Nicholas*cough* opened the door of a bin truck whilst I was motoring along the road at high speeds. I had to stop cuz I couldn't quite believe it was Nic out and about so early in the morn wearing a fluorescent jacket no less. But it was, it really was.

More good news is that I am about to eat Chilli, at 8 o clock in the morning, could life get much better?
No ladles and jellyspoons it can not.

Unless I get that damn letter I've been waiting for for the past 3 weeks. My entire future is in these peoples' hands and they just don't care.
Terrible i know.

Why aren't I tired? its ten to 8 in the morn, I've been working since 10 last night and i got up at quarter past 3 yesterday arvo.

Crayzee,

Sucking to hard on your lollipop, loves gonna get you down.

I'm having a feel good day today, I downloaded some nice happy songs - 2 by Mika a bit of Paul McCartney and I tried to get some Sean Kingston but its not on iTunes. Then I half heartedly tidied the loubnge and baked a cake - well, I guess I'm still baking a cake really - its in the oven.... Amazingly, just as a typed that the beeper beeped and now the cake is done.
I'm a bit freaked out as this seems to happen with LJ ALOT.

and currently there is no money falling from the sky....

*wait for iiiiiiiiit*

Nope nothing but a flock of pigeons.

Anyway, I don't think I've really ritten in here what the hells been going on with me for the last few weeks, just compalined a bit and said I've read Harry P. So here comes the round up:::

I quit my job at the Gazette - I may have already mentioned that but I'm not sure, and you know what? I feel absolutely great! So much more chillaxed. Pam left too, apparently not long after me, I saw her on her bike tother day and we waved and mimed "Yay" at our newfound freedom - well kind of Freedom, she's working at Somerfield now and I am currently doing three nights a week at Tesco - not the ideal job I know but the money is excellent and hopefully I'll get accepted on A Level options soon so I can start my manager training. If I get accepted I will be a line manager by March, which is rather cool. Hurrah.

Also now I have quit my job I get to see all my fags a bit more often. Now we can meet up in the day if we want, or go out at night and have the next day to recover. Before I was way to knackered.

So yeh all is well.

In two and a half (ish) weeks we're all going to Woolacombe for a holidaiii, 'we' being Myself, Nosh, Moon, Goz, Grayce, Ad, Charles, Dave, Sexy Tom, George, Johnny B and Laura - one of Nosh's mates from Aber - who i find is a rather funky monkey. We're staying in caravans, rather nice caravans actually and we'll most probably have a prank war - we're already planning to soak bread in lemonade and put it on the other van so the seagulls will explode. Bwa hahaha.

ahem.

Oh yes, I also mentioned that I finished Harry P - and I liked it. REALLY liked it. Course there were bits in it when I thought 'uhh wtf?' Kind of felt like JK was getting to the end of the book and thought "Shit theres only 6 Horcruxes! Uhmmm..... ok we got a slytherin one and a hufflepuff one, he cant have a gryffindor one.. Ravenclaw! Yeh! Uhm... ok ok Rowena Ravenclaws Diadem, that should do it. We'll stick it in the Room of Requirement so it's easy to find and I'll pop in a bit about Mr. Lovegood talking about it so no one guesses. Sorted.
Also didn't like the way the deaths were brushed over so nonchalantly - yeh I know it was a high action scene with death eaters and galloping desks and whatnot but if main characters like that die... at least stick a bit in at the end about everyone being sad. A funeral or In Memoriam service instead of that crap at the end about kids off to Hogwarts leaving it wide open for crappy authors to write spin offs from. Jesus.
All in all thought it was pretty good and I liked that way it ended. Very nice indeed.

...Uh.. that'll do now.

bleeeeeeeeeeeugh.

im sleepy and my tummy hurts, I am fed up and am going to spend the rest of the night hiding away from the general public cuz i fell like i have been a little over exposed these past few days, and quite frankly im not used to it.
Its supposed to be George's second party tonight, I however am not going. The last one was catastrophic enough, in the fact I can not remember much, least of all how my pyjamas disappeared in the middle of the night.

Today has been a rather ranty day, for many reasons, this darn holiday to start off with, I am never organising anything again, it all goes tits up, I get stressed out and blah blah blah, secondsly all ym tops are too baggy around the shoulders. THE SHOULDERS! which in turn make them baggy everywhere else so I look like I'm wearing a sack.

over and out.

well, i finished it. took me about 8 hours in total to finish, not too bad as i was plagued by loads and loads of distractions, including adam, my mother and a game show hosted by a bloke who me and nik have evidence that he is a monk poker and a moon tickler.

anyway. wow.

thats all i'll say, i know a fair few people havent finished it yet. i'll wait a while before i splurge all the juicy details.

au revoir

... 4 days later and i havent started the fic. dunno why, I think I just dont quite now where and how to start, I'm still not entirely clear on what exactly im writing about. It'll come to me I'm sure.
Plus I have the nagginess coming from yonder kitchen table on which sits the design for my first glass project, which I need to make stencils for cut glass for and actually make. I may do that in a minute, I just need to muster the drive to do anything.

Yes I KNOW I'm supposed to be doing nothing except for getting rid of this darn labrynthitis, and I have done for the most of it, I don't have to wear my travel bands anymore at least, which is good - i still feel kind of lousy though.

bleeeeugh, i hate doing nothing.

I made brownies though :) i have yet to unstick them from the greaseproof paper though..... i should do that in a minute too.

right plan. unstick brownies, make some stencils, make a writing playlist and go from there, by then it should be time to go to the doctors again.

GO.

my nose is itchy...

fic

2007-07-14T13:02:39Z

leoners i have a fic idea.

it sounds serious to start off with, but im going to make it fun. honest.
and who do i have to thank for this idea? the gazette. seriously.

okay, so theres this story in there about a thing called a Mosquito, a thing that makes a loud buzzy noise that only people under the age of 24 can hear (weird eh?) and they were thinking of putting one in dursley to get rid of all the yobs and shiz.

I got really angry at this story, because, well... I am a hardworking citizen of dursley UNDER the age of 24, so what if i want to go out and about in town... all im going to get is this stupid buzzing in my ear and it would really piss me off. PLUS whats the point in just moving all the chavs to another area of town for them to twat about in. Why not actually give them something to do.

the ohter thing that gets me is why the hell do the old people think they can just get rid of young people in the town? If they do this dursleys average age will be about 80, and no one wants that. it just make me really bloody cross abnd arrrrgh.

anyway, the idea is. I'm going to write a fic about it. Georgia Nicholson stylie on a group of kids that are very much how we are, honest, hardworking well behaved -ish and they decide to fuck the town over and rebel against the forces that be.
kind of. i havent really thought this through yet, im putting it on lj so i dont forget it in an hours time whn i actually sit down to write it.

The other thing is I may actualyl write is as lj entries, create a new user and do it like that. ideally id blog it and somehow get background music playing on it - the music that im listening to while i write it because ive found loads of really fitting songs on my itunes.

im kind of excited by this. its going to be my project. but i really want to find a blog that i can play music on, how cool would that be. i dunno if they exist. the search starts now.

but fist im going to have a cup of black tea because im quite addicted to the stuff after last night.

adios amica.

Scott did this. Applaud him.

If you lived in the Potterverse...
1. Which Hogwarts house do you, honestly, think you'd be sorted into?
Gryffindor baby, that’s where id find the Weasleys! PLUS I did a test and it said Gryffindor. Yeh.

2. Which school subject do you think you'd be best at?
Charms maybe… or DADA because I’d love it enough to put actual effort into it.

3. Which subject would be your favourite?
DADA. Care of Magical creatures being a close second.

4. Which subject do you think you'd be worst at?
History of magic or Arithmancy.

5. Which teachers would be your favourite and least favourite (retired/deceased/obliviated teachers allowed)?
Favourite: Hagrid, just for the entertainment value.
Least Favourite: UMBRIDGE for the obvious reasons.

7. What would your wand be?
probably stupidly long and whippy, id have to be careful with that.

8. What position would you play in Quidditch?
Well my eyesight is crap so that’s seeker out. I can’t catch so keeper would be rubbish. I was good at scoring in netball but equally good at rounders so either a chaser of a beater.

9. Which of Hagrid's 'pets' would be your favourite?
Norbert. Without a doubt.

10. What would you have as a pet; owl, cat, toad etc.?
Well I like cats… but owls would be cool. I’d have to have one like Pig though…

11. What form would your patronus take?
Penguin. Hahahaha imagine my patronus penguin waddling towards the fleeing dementors.

12. Would you have a favourite spell/hex/charm that you use all the time? Which one?
Tarantallegra! Sponaneous tap dances make the day more bearable.

13. What would be your ideal wizarding world career?
House wife. To Ronald weasley and all our ginger babies.

Which would you prefer?
1. Butterbeer or Pumpkin Juice?
Butterbeer. Pumkin juice just sounds…

2. Honeyduke's or Zonko's?
Honeyduke's!?!???!!!??!?!???!

3. The Three Broomsticks or The Hog's Head?
Depends what mood I was in guess.

4. Florean Fortescue's or Madam Puddifoot's?
Madam Puddifoot's.

5. Beauxbatons or Durmstrang?
neither. Gawwwd.

6. Marauder's Map or Invisibility Cloak
Marauders map, you cant find secret passages with a cloak!

7. Apparition, Broomstick or Floo Powder?
Floo powder is kind of dirty, I guess broomsticks aren’t as easy as potty makes them seem, plus if it was raining it wouldn’t be very nice, and I bet I’d fail miserable at apparition. So… floo powder.

8. Amortentia or Felix Felicis?
I cant remember what they do. Okay my bad.

9. Occlumency or Legilimency?
again…. I should really read the books again before next Saturday. OMG NEXT SATURDAY

10. Finally, Dumbledore or Voldemort?

Well after watching the Master on Dr Who I found that I have a thing for evil geniuses, however voldemort is an evil.. not so much of a genius cuz he messed up how many times… he’s not that good looking either. On the other hand dumbles made his fair share of cock ups, plus he has a beard… BUT I choose dumbles just because of his magnitude of wisdomosity, plus he has a phoenix, which is always useful.

what wtf is CLEANING? are word documents dirty?!?!?!?!?!??!

filthy dirty word.

bad boy.
