Bring on November

Today was odd but nice.
I've been out of the house since 9am.
We went to Edinburgh Art Collage to visit.
It was lovely.
The shop called Paper Tiger was immense too I got a diary for 09 there.
:)

I cannot believe it but Mum's got me Paper Towns for Christmas and so I cannot touch it yet.
It's infuriating.
Seriously.

I like eating at Café Rouge. Tesco vouchers ftw.

I've got to copy some music tomorrow and then write an essay.
Serious knuckling down.

It didn't seem like Halloween this year.

S'all. Gooten Nicht.

Bit of a holiday

I went driving this morning.
Sorted out a backup harddrive and then spent hours sorting photos.
Went to Jen's housewarming rangers get-together this evening.
We cooked pasta with tomatoey veggie stuff and watched the Emperor's New Groove.
"Squeekum"

This means I still haven't touched my school work.
With a trip to Edinburgh Uni tomorrow this means despite my need to go out Saturday I wont.
Due to essayness.

Well that's really all.
I'd love to have time to type my opinions on the Brand/Ross debate.
Or the new Dr. rumours.
Or anything else.
But I'm going to sleep peeps.


"Balamory"

Boy in the Striped PJ's

Woke late...
Was at the cinema in Teeside for 11:55.

Not as good as the book but still pretty good.
Then we ate at Morrison's which is full of charvs and old people but serves surprisingly good food.
In the car we sang to the 4 Chameleon Circuit songs I have on my mp3 player.
I cannot wait till their album is out.
Trock f.t.w.
"Running through the snow with my brain in my hands"

Since then I've edited together a Paris vid for Hazelizabeth... minus any Hazel.
And now I'm off to watch embarrassing bodies.

Tomorrow I must start some school stuff.
Or else!

Boatloads to say

Christian Bonnefoi

Must crack on then...

So actually Thursday the traffic wasn't so bad, got to the Airport and did all that sort of stuff fine.

Arrived in Paris and then Coached to the hotel...

The room was teensy.

There's Jen on her tiny high bed thing.

So we then set off out a bit later than expected...

By the time we got the right trains over to where we should have been it was half 9 and we sniffed out our restaurant.

The food was actually pretty good albeit 10 by the time we ate.

So we went to see the Sacré-Coure which we should have seen at 6:30ish.

It was closed obviously and these drunk guys followed us and were photo'd in our group shots.

I didn't let my camera out of my hands so I don't have one of those yet.

We wandered off around the artists quarter and got back to our B and B (as that is what it was really) at about midnight.

We got up really early the next morning because we had to find the Orangrie museum for half 9.

Then the Louvre for 10:45.

A river tour at about 3 on the same boat (or at least firm) from out trip in year 8!

On the way I saw this boat…

It made me smile… I almost missed the photo too!

It was late enough for us to swap the order of events again.

To eat and THEN go to the Arc de Triomphe.

Saturday we went to the Musee D'Orsay.

Thanks to Aydn we have a shot of us for that isn’t just arms length.

It was here I saw my favourite piece of Art on the entire trip.

It’s just so lovely.

Picasso Museum.

Running the whole length of the museum was this mirror.

Notre Dame.

Then Thurly Wurly took us to see the Louvre in the dark...

Long exposure makes it look like it is on fire.

Then dragged us off back to the artist quarter near the Sacré-Coure again... for an unknown reason as I think no-one actually wanted to go.

Anyhoo Sunday was Rodin.

Everyone else puts up photos of the thinker whereas I just love the lamppost outside with everyone’s entrance stickers on.

There’s me showing my Nerfighterness Europewide.

Actually going UP the Eiffel tower. (Late of course because stupidly they thought we'd cancelled)

The Pompidou Centre of modern art was amazing at about 5... although we were unbelieveably knackered so didn't enjoy it quite as much as I could have.

There was one installation that was interractive and I persuaded the others to help me spell D.F.T.B.A. as Nerdfighting and decreasing world suck is one aim of mine that will never fade.

This is extreme not forgetting to be awesome.

I used my first Dyson Airblade though :D GO GO Richardson!

We then went to the "posh restaurant" of the trip and had... I'll let you guess Chicken and CHIPS!

Obviously the meal of choice of ALL English people.

Monday. i.e. Yesterday: Breakfast early because due to our protests we were going to go shopping and NOT back to Notre Dame to try and see the gargoyles.

Sneddon left his bag and the coach was late and then the computers crashed at the airport and so we get back at around 6 English time.

I've been watching tv, sorting photos and sleeping from then on.

I need to start my homework mind.

That's tomorrow!

Edit: this is the 21 Metro tickets and the other three Eiffel Tower, Orangrie and Boat tour!

Monday 27 October 2008

Back home

Photos and a description I'll do tomorrow.
Basically I want to tell you I'm back and as worn out as Ghandi's flipflops.

:D

Thursday 23 October 2008

Bye - bye England

I supposed as I can I will write a blog today.

I passed my theory.

Roads are bad so I'm off already.

:D

Oh and Congratulations to John Green for making the New York Times best sellers list...

Hoohah! Nerdfighters!

xxxx

Wednesday 22 October 2008

Bag packed and ready to go...

Every day since I started has had an entry.
But tomorrow I go to Paris on an Art trip.
So when I get back on Monday I'll have to do a nice long entry.

I've got my driving theory in the morning too.

*insert word of the year 2007 here*
(That was w00t btw)

So yeah.

Today was just a Wednesday.
Free. Psychology. Art. Double Free.
Choir.
Heroes.

Fan-dabby-dosie.

Tarrybye and I'll post back either early tomorrow or Monday.

:D

Blood, Guts and GORE

An early Halloween Party because it was the last Cadets of term.
I ruddy love Tuesdays.




Ben did the lost finger (top left)
Hazel did the immense end of finger lossage (bottom left)
I did the protruding knuckle fracture (right)

Pretty darn awesome!

Eeeeh Magic stars make talking about funerals infinitely easier!

Tatty Bye now!

Monday 20 October 2008

Blue Peter: 50 years...

Wow.
That program was enlightening.
I have to find my Blue Peter badges at some point.
They are nearly as important to me as my Outward Bound badge!

I think today deserves a photo so today a screenshot.


Nerdfightastic.
"I'm a wiz at minesweeper I could play for days"

Byron is so nearly done.

Oh I felt happy today.
It should only get better from here.

I'm going to do some driving theory now.

Blood on my hands, or should I say, Chocolate?


Caitlin's Mum's magnificent cake.

The whole Gang.
Jock Latt
Shopian Shanil
Troy de Soft Centres
Ray-Synn Shanil
Kit Catt
Marsha Mallow
Moll Teaser
Bepe Mint

Special thanks to Simon and Alex for hosting and Anna too for planning.

It was classic.

I was the murderer and no-one guessed it was me :D

Apart from that today has been horrible.
Constant typing and its just D:

I'm knackered but have lots to do.

G'night.

Birthday party of strangeness

I'm posting VERY early today because I'm off out to Caitlin's Murder Mystery party in just over an hour.

Byron annoys me and tomorrow I'm going to have to type very very hard.

I love iPlayer. Go BBC!

I've started this project. So far in October every day I have drawn a picture of myself.
It dawned on me this could be something I do for the rest of my life.
I honestly think I'm at least going to attempt a year.

Well I'm off to get ready, to find some clothes that make me feel like Jock Latt.

:)

Love to your mothers.

Friday 17 October 2008

Bring a friend...

I brought Hazel to Rangers with me tonight.
That's like bring a friend. Except she'd have come anyway :p

Creepy clowns in Sarah Jane, I'm just getting round to it.
Ohhhhh and Dad bought a Laser screwdriver today... go Master?!

I'm so tired recently.
The school's brought in a proximity rule... no holding hands, no linking, no hugging.
Absolutely stupid in my opinion.

Not much to say...

Byron day tomorrow!

Thursday 16 October 2008

Bee-ay-eee-youtiful

Ohmygosh.
<3 my camera.

That's been pretty much my day.

Those who know me look to my facebook.

Context questions scare me.

Ok, My invite for Caitlin's Birthday party came yesterday...

I decided to photograph it.




Meh Camera too.



And a good day was had by all.
More or less.

Wednesday 15 October 2008

Bee, Dancing Bee.



This is productivity.

I'm writing really early today.
Heroes is on at 9 and I don't want to end up forgetting again!

So we're all on little silver threads and God can tug us back.
We shouldn't stretch them.
OCD is fascinating and Freud thought it came from over strict toilet training.
Those lovely silver pens give me a headache.

It is IMPOSSIBLE to get any work done with Danny Mac nearby.
He doesn't shush.
I'm better at photoshop than Lexi :D

I've not watched Hollyoaks in over a week.

Life is OK I suppose.

<3

Edit: I also got my letter for Cait's BD party on Sat.
Looks interesting!

Tuesday 14 October 2008

Buddhist?

General R.E.
It gets better every week.
What's a Hindu? Lay eggs.
What's a Buddhist? Doesn't lay eggs.
Who would win in a fight: Moksha or Charizard?

Purple Opalfruits taste odd now they're natural.

Tomorrow I should get a letter in the post from Caitlin's brother detailing what I'll have to do for the party on Saturday!

Oooo well.
That'a another Tuesday gone...

Monday 13 October 2008

Band-age... (See what I did)



Uh-oh

I had fun tonight meaning I haven't done my context.

HELP!

Well it was absolutely classic even though I was tired as.

"Time and again boys are raised to be men"

The first support backfired, yesterday I liked folk, now I don't.
Soz boz.
Second support "Absent Elk" were pretty amazing.
Then the main thing.

Shoobadoopadoop

Well.

I found out that Martin watched my Vlog today...
*waves*

Good golly I'm tired and up in 6 hours or so to type...

GARGH

Blundering Sunday!

I forgot, I'm gutted.

So here's Sunday's.

Went to see Rich Hall.

Barrel of Laughs.

I now have a vague love of country music.

Big tall James made that well song work.

Rich signed the ticket :o!




Well that was Sunday.

Today's will come after the Hoosiers.

Saturday 11 October 2008

"B" logs broke my b key?

Oh deary me, forgive my if this blog lacks a b or two.
It is nearing the 1year anniversary of this beautiful laptop and yet it seems, now, as I type, my b key is suffering.
I cannot understand this.
It isn't even used that much.
Surely "E, I, L, M, T and S" are used more?
Oh well.

Today was just a Saturday.
I woke up tired and finished Deathly Hallows.
Watched some Twilight trailers.
Read the b3ta newsletter etc.

After lunch went of to get photos for my art.
This involved a large bag of shoes.



:D

Didn't do much else...

Merlin was full of gay tension as usual. Seriously just stop filming innuendo and longing gazes because I know that isn't the point of the program. I wouldn't mind it if it was but I'm pretty sure he's supposed to be in love with Gwen not Arthur...

I sort of regret not going to York today.
But I'd never have been able to get my much needed photos if I had.

Bring on tomorrow!

xXx

Friday 10 October 2008

B-b-b-boat Party,



So this was today.

Pretty good day to be honest.

Not much to say right now I'm tired.

:D

Thursday 9 October 2008

Books for the Win

I'm reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows again.

The details like Luna Lovegood's bedroom wall, the paintings of Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny and Neville with the word "friends" intertwining them.

Gosh.

The Great Gatsby.
Twilight.
King Lear.
Go go Literature.



G'niiiight

Breaking one pattern. Beginning another...

This is a thing that has been troubling me for the past few days and that Sarah picked up on today too.

So far Week 1 of this blog had titles that began with the letter A.
Incidentally Week 2 began on the day October began too.
So I started with B's.
The observant of you, or probably the only of you #cough# will have realised that today is the eighth day of "B" titled blogs.

The conclusion was quite basic in the end.
I could have changed each week rendering this week "C" week.
Yet this would mean I would reach "Q" week by only January.
Whereas using a new letter per month will give me 2009 (efghijklmnop) and till October 2010 till "Z" troubles me.

Sensible.

Anyhoo.

We did our National Poetry Day assembly today.
Poems for all and glacier mints in the face for one poor year7.
Alex and I also read to some lower school childers too.

Went to the dentist tonight... 3 mins it took for her to tell me my teeth are fine.
:D

"Hello evil lady at the grocery store,
It seems you don't know what the express lane is for,
It says "ten items or less" but you're exempt from that I guess"

I actually had to accio Deathly Hallows tonight as I didn't know where it was.
It finally helped me decide on my super power. Definitely telekinesis but with especially strong summoning powers.

BTW it was at my Dad's side of the rents bed under the R2D2 clock and The Lord of the Rings trilogy.

the song "There's a fine fine line" from Avenue Q sums up my life right now.

Listen to it, you'll see.

I made Hazel the best CD cover IN THE WORLD but I had to resize on Paint as Photoshop is hs given up.
Shudders at pixilisation.



Peace out.

Tuesday 7 October 2008

Bond, my bond, let them look to the bond.

Just got in from Merchant of Venice.

It's just amazing.

Today was uncomfortable to say the least...
I want whatever might be to come to be natural, nothing suppressed for any trivial reasons.

But then I want for he to be happy, not to feel pressured or scared.
Yet still I know not what he wants, nerry what he thinks, just basic instincts contained by restrictive society...

Alas it is late.
I retire my Sitzpinklers.

Adieu.

Monday 6 October 2008

Blimmin' well nearly forgot.

Everything is closed down on my comp 'cept this, which is unusual but I need time to think.

Pretty much a normal day at school.
English was class with our assembly plan.
I've got a poem sorted too.

Erm, is it wrong that only today I finished off a pack of Mento's from France I bought in Year 8, that was 2003.

:) Still tasted fine.



Unrequired proof.

My brain is a'buzzin. I need sleep.

G'niiight.

Sunday 5 October 2008

Bot off.

Ah man, today was strange.
I keep thinking about the future and then doing nothing about it.
Then I do something right now and get sidetracked.
Which isn't helpful either now or in the weeks or years to come.
I got a new pendrive. I've retyped my Context so far.
I've done my Byron handout.
I've started the Gatsby stuff.
I haven't done any Art :(.
Except for my daily me.
I've watched Sarah's first blog and decided to do a video response to Jonnydurham19's 10second video.

I decided to type my blog early today.
I won't stay up on msn tonight.
I'm going to work in my frees this week.

I'm going to sort it all out.

This coming weekend I'm starting so much.

Saturday 4 October 2008

Bloggage as an avoidance technique.

Homework avoidance this is.

I went out this morning to wish Nanna a Happy 82nd Birthday!
Spend the rest of the day inside doing bits of homework.
But not enough.
I did much more daydreaming...
... and deliberating...
... and decision making.

I've come to a secret conclusion, and no Ross it doesn't involve dressing up like Rihanna in Disturbia.

I've been single for nearly two years and its driving me insane.

Badabing Badaboom

"I've always hated jellyfish,
I don't like the way they float,
I wake up screaming,
dreaming,
that I'm sailing on the ocean,
and they're following my boat!"
Boothby Graffoe

Orrite, I feel today should be a proper full explanation day again.

So I get up at half 6 and listen half heartedly to that OAF Moyles.
It's not worth it. I fell asleep again and woke up when they played music.
The remnants of my beautiful dream faded away and the cold was, well, cold.
Well then it was up and to school.
Alicia's blunt straightforward way of telling it as it is is always a bit of hilarity.
Long tutor was uneventful apart from telling Chris his shoes were tramplike and recounting the story of yesterday and Dicko's 10yr persons old shirt.

Psychology was just a test on Bruner, he's boring.
Break, its family fast day for the Catholics so no Fairtrade stall. I was ready for some biscuits but I put my pennies in the CAFOD box instead.
Then double art, did a bit of painting and then started my essay. Some good ideas.

Lunch was just hilarious.
School dinner talks then playground games.
Days off and stray dogs.
Then food again.
We laughed so much mainly at the fact noone else had ever played melting butter.
:/ obv. fail school again.

Double free this afternoon and Ross's tech work got ruined.
It was OK but no progress if I get my gist.

Driving was good then Cait came over before Rangers where we talked eco friendliness and then facebook.

Now I'm watching Harry and Paul and the day is sort-of over.
This is too long and FEBRUARY is long enough ago...

Birthday Celebration

Today is Caitlin's Birthday.

It's now I regret not photographing the presents before I gave them... but never mind.


That's Caitlin with her cake in Hide tonight, it was really nice.

I lost my pendrive today, it is really irritating me as its such a useful thing just lost and its so inconvenient as I'll have to re-type loads of things now.
#anger#

Oooh I do like a bit of Blue October.
I wish they were coming on tour!

OOOOOOOH also Laura's got us tickets for the Kaisers in Feb :D

Is that it for today? Methinks so it was just a rubbish in school day and great once school ended.

I'm discontent with my self-control. I know what I mean.

Wednesday 1 October 2008

Because week two deserves better

According to Julene this could be a real life story.


Thank the Lord it isn't but then again apparently its my decision that rules. Chivalry is either dead or so extreme its backwards.

*cough*

Anyhoo Daniel also did some doodles...


¬_¬

TONIGHT!
We went to see Oh What a Lovely War! at the Gala.
It was pretty darndiddly fantastic!



Oooft that suit.
Handfuls of Maltesers.
Singing soldiers and that tit Haig.

Well I'm tired and seriously haven't done enough context for DJ.

ohhhhhh BALLS
Grandad sent me a newspaper clipping of great importance.
It isn't where I put it...

"You make my heart to acrobatic stunts!"

xxxxx
