Rubbish =P

I've got less than two weeks left until I head back into college (and hopefully start planning); I really did tell myself I would have all this blog designed and begin posting more often... that didn't happen.

I've figured I need to give it some sort of focus, as to what, I'm not sure as of yet; but I may begin designing the graphics I want to use in my free time - It has Rawry the Lion in it =D

Managed to take my mum(sy), brother and grandparents into Liverpool today! And I didn't lose any of them. I did however end up carrying the 'dad bag'... maybe it is a sign of me getting old, alternatively I'm just super cool and the bag should be renamed 'the super cool bag of wonderous thingamabobs'.

I've grown fond of Liverpool over the past few months and grown quite distant from Manchester. Shocking, considering how much I used to adore the latter - as my mum said today, Liverpool just has some kind of charm about it and everything feels much nicer. A good example of this is the World Museum! It's quite an amazing museum considering it's free, including the variety of shows they offer, even so I'd much rather give money to the folks there than many of the other museums/attractions in the North West.


This has become quite a garbled post... but hey ho, maybe I'll write more if I don't think before I type =] Time to fill my boots.

Laptop go Kaboom =[

It would seem the world just isn't quite ready for me to fully design this blog, nor start vlogging.

Friday evening (as the may suggest) my laptop went "Kaboom" or... slightly more similar to "Hisssss, Whizzzzz, Boom, KABOOM, Crackle". It resulted in a muchly burnt laptop and also a ruined carpet - damn HP Lithium-Ion batteries =[

In hindsight, it's incredibly lucky that Martin suggested I'd show my mother a video of Dr.Thingymabob from the Green Wing giving himself a coffee enema (lol). Else, it could well have happened in bed and been much worst. Also rather thankful for my Belkin mini desk thingy which definitely saved my lap!

In the end I think we were all much more worried that four bottles of beer and a mango dip had been wasted.



Happy times for me having downloaded the BloggerPress app from iTunes quite some time ago.

In further news from this week my observation came through as being grade 1 (the highest) which made me smile, but, now I need to keep up with maintaining it in the future.

Anyhoo, I turn two little ducks on Thursday =D

Busy Times

Times have been very busy at work!

Only 10 more days until I get to leave until my contract renews on 24th August =D should be exciting times, although it's a shame I'll be in the classroom as my boyfriend gets more and more exciting about going off to university. 

I was observed today also, very very brief feedback would indicate that I did well, but i won't find out until Thursday exactly the opinions formed of me during the hour.

Anyhow, I was tralling through my *junk* email account and came across some sales from Fotolia, it's a pretty cool website especially considering the images I uploaded on there I did during my first year of University and they're slowly but surely selling. For some reason the image below is my "best seller":

It's only a very tiny sized version of the picture, but, if anybody would like to see some larger versions of what I produced you should check out here: Bowlol's Crappy Pictures, it's even signed up with my old username =P

Roll on July 1st!!

Waterloo Road

How crazy is Waterloo Road?!
Not only does is not reflect a real school (Teachers was much better at that =P ), but it also seems to slip into some time warp where it can fit in a dozen themes and make an hour increase exponentially, yet still be mostly interesting. 

It's almost like Providence, why did I watch it? It was pretty much about nothing... looped the same storylines over and over and then seemed to have slipped off the circle of cliche and disappeared. It will probably be found in Sweden with the rest of the infamous apparating Ikea customers.

Anyhoo, not really too sure I wrote the above. But I'm still watching Waterloo Road, and the kids have just done drugs.

YouTube

I'm finally starting to sort my YouTube channel out so that I can begin Vlogging soon. I'm not sure whether to get on with it ASAP, or wait until I can buy a Mac BookPro... this notebook is slowly but surely dying (but living twice as long as it's predaccessor!)

I am, however, starting to think of some ideas; although, lots more would be welcome. Hopefully it'll be all cool and dandy.

Three Months

I just noticed... I managed to write 10 days in succession (I think) back in Febuary, and now it's been three whole months since I last posted! Making me rather rubbish =[

I really need July 1st to come around so I can start thinking about customising this and making some actual attempt at getting followers =P 

Anyhow, I'm going to try and start writing at least every other day, and hopefully, this time it will stick =]

Love always,
