First thing on a Monday morning is not when you want 3 hours of Communication with Dave. Luckily though, all we did was watch Life of Brian. My first viewing of it ^^
The, at the break, there was a fire drill. Cue moning from people whinging 'But it's cold!' It actually wasn't that cold. But yeah, everyone piled outside, staff dressed in Fire Marshal jackets. Really, if there was a fire, would they bother getting those jackets on? Didn't think so.
Lewis and I stood around waiting for Kayleigh so we could get into town. She finally showed and was saying goodbye to people when Impatient Lewis grabbed her by the waist and dragged her to the door. Kayleigh was annoyed, saying "I can't do anything with you around, can I Lewis?" Lewis said we were walking into town after Kayleigh asked if we were bussing it. Cue Kayleigh and I going "NO! Bus is quicker." Lewis said he had no money for the bus, so I brought out my wallet and gave him £2 for a dayrider.
In town, he said goobye far too many times. Kayleigh and I made a bee line for Blue Banana, where a member of staff came over and said he had a massive headache and he didn't want to be there. I misheard him, thinking he said 'I really want a beer." Needless to say I just completely embarrassed myself. Kayleigh said I was an alcoholic and the guy replied "At least you've accepted you have a problem." We then went into Waterstones and saw an old guy with grey hair looking at the EROTICA section. Kayleigh and I looked at each other with the same expression. We then went to the 'Witty' section and had a flick through the books. Kayleigh glanced at a book, turned to me and said "Can I ask you a serious question? Do bats have bollocks?" I was like "what!?" She then showed me the book. She found a book called 'Living With An Emo Kid' which I bought her for Chrimbo. I saw a book that I really like the look of- 1001 Ridiculous Ways To Die.
We were in the queue in WStones, and some old woman wlaks up to the counter and says "Excuse me, I need a diary and I can't find them." The staff at the counter turned and politely said "I'm actually serving someone at the minute, I'll be with you in a bit." The old woman was realy rude, stating "But I need a diary NOW!" I was like 'Alright!'
When I was paying for the book, Kayleigh said "Look Mo, you're buying a book about yourself!" I was too busy paying to say anything back.
I then said I needed to get home to do my round and so we walked to Fleming (ugh) Way where we said our goodbyes.
I got home to find Adolf there for no reason. And he has a stupid rule of no shoes on the carpet, so I avoided going in further than the hall. Not once did I even poke my head round the door to say hi. That's what he gets for being a miserable dictator.
Media with Julian was.. different. All I did was mess about on Logic Express, making a tune out of various samples. If I say so myself, I think it's turned out pretty well. Not finished, but what's there is good.

P.S I still haven't finished my room. ¬_¬

Yeah, but it's just his face.
Today was amazin'.
At first, I thought 'Ah shit.' as I looked out the window to be faced with sheets of rain. And I had to do both my own and my sister's paper rounds. Thank God it decided to stop as I went out xD
Then I went on to meet Hayley at hers so she could jazz up my hair. That worked well, so we wandered into town.
On the bus there, we went past these two chavs who had 'parked' their car so badly it looked abandoned. Really. We also almost collided with a Saab, simply cos they pulled a gutsy move and the bus driver kept on going. Twas funn.
In town, we were in Blue Banana when Ash and Kyle waltzed in. Kyle has grown his hair quite long and dyed it blonde. It looks... HHHHHHHHHORRIBLE! Hayley and I walked out and I said to Hayley "I really don't like Kyle's hair." She replies "Yeah, he needs to re-dye it." I said back "No, it's just the colour." And she just came out with "Yeah, but it's just his face." Apparently it was a case of verbal diahorrea. She meant it really. Either way, I just cracked up. She sounded so serious when she said it.
Onto Zaavi, and we just basically walked through without looking at anything, and as we came out, all I heard was some guy walking in saying "Every shop I've been in, it just smells of POO!" And that was it. Hayley found it equally hilarious.
We went to Woolworths to try and pick up some bargains. I managed to get my mum and Liz a cd each from there. Then we went to HMV where I got my dear papa a cd and myself a Deathnote DVD. I'm happy ^^
By this time, we were both feeling hungry so we went on to MaccyD's for some grub. Before we went in, I looked at the giant screen to check the time- 14.25. I ordered our meals, paiud for them and we went upstairs to find some seats. On the table next to us were a bunch of kids desperately in need of some maturity. I just murmered to Hayley "There's a time and a place, and it's late at night in the gay bar." She had to hold back her laughter. Hayley then paid me back whilst we were eating, and we then left. Cue another look at the big screen for time- 14.55 We had spent HALF AN HOUR in McDonalds. I was astounded.
We then went to get some hairspray for me and then went back to hers to use some. Hayley is a very good hair stylist. My hair looked frickin awesome.
Then I went back home, had tea and was ordered by Adolf to basically empty my room and throw EVERYTHING away. I'm still not finished.

Ho hum
It would appear I haven't updated for a week again. Woops.
At least it wasn't like last time where I logged in to read the blogs I'm following and not bother to write my own. I seriously, haven't touched this website in a week.
I got my new PC on Wednesday and lost all my MSN emoticons. And most of my music. Well, I say 'my' when it was harddrive of the entire music collection in the house. Now I just have my music.
Been confined to my room today- going through it to try and throw out some detritus. I've managed to half the number of books on my shelf and make room for my Ferraris, so I guess I achieved something. Not much else happening though.
Mo
P.S- Just been reading the blogs I've missed in my abscence and watched a video I took on Shygirlslose and it suddenly dawned on me- I HAVE A HHHHHHHHORRIBLE VOICE!

"Don't worry, we're potential buyers."
I woke up REALLY late today, the latest I woken up on a Friday so far. Hey, it was nice ^^
The day only really started after Crit Think finished and I sat with Kayleigh, Sarah and Freya. We were talking about Elara and her donkey-boyfriend. Whom she's never seen a picture of. Paedophilia?
Soon after, Mullinz, Sarah, Kayleigh and I went on a wander around college and found 'Curry Corner'. I'll leave the rest to your imagination. Then we found a random empty corridor with fire doors at the end and Kayleigh asked "Do you think they'd say something if we opened those and pulled in a bed?" and we started saying how'd we'd transform the corridor into a nice living place and how, somehow, we'd end up painting the walls. As we left, Kayleigh turned to the people hanging around the stairwell next to aforementioned corridor and said "Don't worry, we're potential buyers.' and we just left. The poor souls must've been quite bewildered.
We then went to the English staff room where Sarah went in for some reason. Whilst she was in there, Kayleigh, Mullinz and I ran for it. We sprinted down the corridor, sped through the Fuckchimp Arena and 'hid' under the stairs, panting and sniggering. She knew where we were. So we sat there for a while, just generally mucking about. Mullinz produced his phone and played 'Men In Black' theme and subsequently sent it to Kayleigh.
English, and Pete said he was doing Form A's individually and said he wouldn't be in the room. Fast forward about an hour, and Joe's phone rings. Jardine (whose name is spelt with a Z, rather than J...) laughs for no reason. Me and Nia just turn to each other like "It's really not funny." Jardine, who seemed to be wearing footwear like that of slippers, noticed because she kept giving us dark looks. Ah well.
We were analysing these texts and one of them was about landscaping and architechture. I turned to Nia and said "What do you think the audience of this text is? Probably middle-aged men with combovers who have nothing better to do than position fountains and trees to convey a particular meaning." This quickly moved on to the subject of gardens, and having one INSIDE the house. You'd say to a visitor 'Would you like to see the garden?' and they'd say 'Sure.' where you'd take them upstairs to one of the bed rooms and open it revealing a lawn, patio and a pond. This moved on again to converting your living room to a tropical rainforest where you'd have Monkey Butlers. A pretty cliched idea, I know, but hey, whatcha gonna do?

"Ethiopians Look a Bit Hungry.."
Is it funny to have a Thermos full of coffee in a lesson first thing Monday morning? Manda seemed to think it was. I told her "I like my coffee."
And why must nothing INTERESTING happen in my lessons? I suppose Luke did come in looking absolutely STONED out of his mind (half-open eyes, slow, rhythmic nodding) but besides that, the majority of the lesson was same as usual.
Near the end, Dave went out for something and Lee took the clock and set it 10 minutes forward. Boy, are we wild. Still, it worked. And I said that I felt hungry, Anne-Marie said I looked hungry.
Me: "How can you say someone looks hungry?"
Lee: "Dunno bout you, but I think Ethiopians look a bit hungry.."
Me, Elena, Manda and Anne-Marie just cracked up, making Lee feel a bit guilty that he'd said such a thing.
Really, that's the only thing that stood out for me today.
Mo's Life = Uninteresting and FAIL

2009 Brabus Tesla Roadster
Tesla Roadster is an electric vehicle from America. And because it's electric, it makes no noise as it's moving.
Brabus have decided to take one, and play about with it.
From this:
To this:
(from Brabus press release) 'To give the sports car a more exciting sound the BRABUS electronics specialists have developed a ‘space sound generator.’ The occupants on-board the Tesla Roadsters can choose from several simulated engine sounds including that of a typical V8 combustion engine, a racecar engine and two futuristic soundscapes named ‘Beam’ and ‘Warp.’ The volume of the sound is dependent on the momentary power output of the electric motor.'
Sorry? Futuristic soundscapes? WHY? Imagine an OAP crossing the road and all they hear is 'Warp' coming at them. They'd think aliens are beaming them up! Don't get me wrong, I like the idea of having pre-set sounds but why make synthetic sounds? The 'typical' V8 engine and racecar engine sounds are a great idea - less blind people getting mowed down by electric vehicles - but to make sounds up? C'mon Brabus, you can do better than that.

Is it sad?
Every year around this time, I look forward to one event- the SEMA show in America.
Specialist
Equipment
Markets
Association
for those who are wondering.
Basically, car manufacturers and specialist firms take some vehicles and do wacky things with them.
My favourite has to be this Chevrolet Camaro Black. Just look at it.
How can you possibly say no to that?
I think the less said about this atrocity, the better.

How can you possibly say no to that?Stuck firmly in the 'Mad' section is the Toyota Yaris Club, brought to us from Five Axis Design.
Can you imagine doing your weekly shop in that? No. Can you imagine a racing grid full of them? Yes.
The prize for Most Pointless Piece of Shit goes to Boulevard Customs for producing the Mercedes-Benz GLK Urban Whip. Quite how you can describe a car as being a 'whip', I don't know. You'd have to ask Snoopy Doggy Dog or whatever his name is.
I think the less said about this atrocity, the better.If you MUST want a Mercedes GLK for whatever reason, this is the one to go for:
This is the Mercedes GLK Pikes Peak Racer from RENNtech. Yes, that is a massive rear wing on the back.
If racing is your thing, then Chevrolet have the right car for you: another Camaro!
This is the GS Racecar Concept. Please please PLEASE make this for a one-make race series Chevrolet. You know it makes sense.
That's just a small round-up of the stars that caught my eye, and now you all now how much of a car freak I am. Most of you will probably never touch this page again now.

"I shall turn into a frog and spontaneously combust!"
I think my Friday's might follow the same pattern- get up, watch Top Gear, do paper round and go off to college.
I got into college 20 minutes before my Crit Think lesson started and just sat around Gay Bay for that time. Not much happened.
Nothing really happened in my lesson either, we just watched some Kilroy for no reason whatsoever.
Would anything interesting happen in my lunch break then? Yes, actually. I wandered around aimlessly for about 20 minutes, and then adjorned to the library where I thumbed through NME. I got bored of that quite quickly, and I'd spotted Amber on her lonesome so I joined her one her 'Table of Lonliness'. Or so she called it. She told me she was swotting up on her maths after getting 54% on her last exam. But she pointed out that this was an improvement over her previous 52% score. Not much, but an improvement is an improvement.
We then started playing game upon game of Noughts & Crosses. The majority of matches we played no-one won. BUT we got bored of this and decided to mess around, saying we'd won with crooked lines and then it turned into Who Could Block Off An O/X. I decided that the blocked off X could leap frog round the grid and Amber came out with "I shall turn into a frog and spontaneously combust!" which made no sense whatsoever.
We then tried playing the Who Can Make A Square game (I have no idea if that's the actual name, but still...). Needless to say I failed miserably at that.
English, and... well it was the same as usual really. I do remember Jardine laughing WAY too much at something, but it must have been something really insignificant 'cos I'm buggered if I can remember.
Dad's over the weekend. Which means I'll have little or no computer access. However, Liz and I are being left to our own devices tomorrow night, so it should be ok.

An Epic Time Wasted
College finished at 1 today, so what did I do with my afternoon off? Came home and stuffed my face whilst watching over a B-spec race I had going on GT4. What a sad existance I lead.
Wind the clocks back to the start of the day, I got up feeling ok. I went downstairs to grab some food before I got the bus to college and I felt slightly.. drunk. It's the only way I could describe it! I told mum this and said "Does this make me an alcoholic?" Mum replied with "Did you get up too quick?"
"No, it's only since I've come downstairs."
It was all very wierd.
Later on the bus, I told Kayleigh the same thing and she too asked had I gotten up too quick. "No, I only felt like it when I got downstairs." She too was quite freaked by it. Then she told me and Laura how, after 2 weeks and 3 days of straight edge-ness she's begginning to feel the effects. Even so, I hope she can stick with it. Good luck Kayleigh.
English with Mel was... well, the same as it usually is really. Why are all my lessons boring as shite? No need to answer Kayleigh, I know it already.
In the main Foyer at 11, we had a 2 minute silence that turned into 11 minutes. The actual silence was 2 minutes, but we had a trumpet played and then the choir sang for a bit and then more trumpet. Afterwards, I heard some guy say "Bring on the trumpets!" Milli was all "Oh my god, I'm never gonna get that 11 minutes back!" I have to say, I'm with her on this one.
And then me, Kayleigh, Lozz and Aaron sat on the floor for a while, me being abused like I usually am. After about an hour or so, Kayleigh and Lozz went off to the cinema together whilst I came home and- well you read the first paragraph.
Here's to a more interesting tomorrow.

This Isn't A Pipe...
Waiting outside Dave's for what seemd like years, I turn to Manda and say "What would you do if Dave wasn't in and the lesson was cancelled?" She just looks at me and go "Martyn, don't say that! Now you've got me hoping that'll be the case." So Dave turns up and all Manda does is give me a disapproving look.
Dave's lesson was the same as always- copying down a boring old slideshow. I may get lynched for this (I do most days anywiz) but I think Ron's lessons are more exciting. I think it maybe the disruption my little troupe cause.
Anywiz, Dave brought up a picture of a pipe with the caption of 'Ceci n'est une pipe', which is french for this blogs title. Dave handily translated it for us and immediately after I blurted out "This is an M&S pipe." Is it bad that the only person who laughed is Dave?
Also, we were asked to captionise some pictures, one of which was a picture of a naked man in public. I suggested "I know I've forgotten something..." and Dave said that's what he had imagined the caption to be as well. It's quite terrible, having the same sense of humour as your Comm & Cult teacher, is it not?
Soon after, Anne-Marie asked Dave what his favourite band is, and he replied with Sonic Youth. He then went to ask our table (not the class, just OUR table) what our favourite bands are. My crap memory can't tell me what Manda's was, but Elena said Radiohead was one of her favourites. Dave agreed, moved onto me and I said AFI. He goes "Never heard of them." I told him to go and search them on Yout. I asked if he liked Rush at all and he said "Nah, they're too heavy metal for me." Rush are a prog rock band. Get it right Dave.
During the break, nothing really happened besides me getting my jeans torn into shorts which look a MESS. I don't know why I let Jae and Emily do it. but what's done is done I guess.

Shup Adolf.
Happily listening to Paramore, and Adolf walks in, not knocking or anything and announces "I can hear the sound through the ceiling, so next door's kids must be able to hear it. Turn it RIGHT down."
Who cares about next doors kids? They deserve it for fucking staring through our front window.
And I know it's over-used, but if it's too loud, you're too old.

Spent my morning watching half of Episode 1 of Series 12 of Top Gear, making myself a fried egg sandwich for breakfast and doing my round. And sorting out my Student Travelpass.
I got to College and the fist person I saw was Bexiee. First thing I say to her? "You got 30p I can borrow?" I hadn't had a drink all morning, and was gasping for a Relentless. Luckily, she did have the money, so I was able to hydrate and hyper up. Even if I don't get hyper on Relentless.
Halfway through my can, Louis from my Crit Think class came over (I had the lesson next) and we saw Amy and we decided to waltz to the class together.
Lori's lesson wasn't bad, but nothing stood out. Nothing in Crit Think ever does.
Lunch break, and Lauren decides to attack me with her silver paint pen and Sarah's Sharpie pen. I was transformed into FailCat. Both Kayleigh and Sarah took photos of the occaision. And Sarah wrote 'I *heart* RON' on the floor where she was sat. That was quite funny.
English with Pete wasn't bad. We had to print and bring in e-mails for the lesson and I picked a fantastically crap spam I got sent a while back. Nia and I spent a few minutes laughing at how crap the whole idea of Spam is. Then she noticed the front of my notepad (specifically a Cyanide & Happiness-esque comic strip) and said "Looks like Cyanide and Happiness." I confessed, saying it was an inspiration of mine. She then proceeded to give me a couple of other webcomics to look at (which I haven't yet...).
After college, I walked to Town with Kayleigh and Sarah which was fairly hilarious. Especially since Kayleigh and I were acting out different Javey scenarios. Then we went our seperate ways.
LYDIARD FIREWORKS TOMORROW!

P.s- HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARAH!

You'll Strangle Yer Eyes!
Got back from my grandparents today and I have to say the time I spent up there was good.
TUESDAY
Only thing that really happened was my cousin Fiona came round to do her Virgin Vie party (basically sell a load of beauty products) and she brought James with her. I commented on James' Billabong hat, saying "Why're you wearing a tea-cosy on your head?" It really did look like a tea cosy. He got me back by commenting my height (or rather lack of). I then had a nice jacket potato with prawns. Fiona was gutted we didn't leave her any prawns. I didn't care, and James and I had bowls of ice cream we were munching on. Ver' nice!
Fi also straightened my hair properly, doing the underneath bits and evrything. I loved it when it was done.
'Party' time and Liz and I were forced to sit in the middle of this circle of women, both young and old. Mind you, I got two packs of Haribo out of it so it wasn't all bad.
WEDNESDAY
Woke up late, and enjoyed a nice boiled egg for breakfast. Then walked to Morrisons with Mum, Liz and Grandma. Bought a tub of Ben & Jerry's Cookie Dough ice cream *drools* Love that stuff.
We got back and then we went out for lunch at a very nice pub. I had Red Snapper for the first time and it was very delicious. Red Snapper is fish by the way. Then for pudd'n, I had what was called a Frozen Chocolate Orange Bombe. Basically some orange syrup stuff covered in chocolate ice cream and served frozen. 'Twas very tasty when I got into it. Afterwards I just spent the day lazing around.
THURSDAY
Had smoked haddock for breakfast this morning. My GOD, what a gorgeous breakfast! Complete with orange juice, it has to be the most English breakfast I've possibly had xD
Spent the day lazing around really, reading, watching Danger Mouse. Where I was sat, I couldn't see the TV all that well, but I couldn't be bothered to move but I still tried to watch it. Grandpa walks in and says to me "You'll strain your eyes!" but I could've sworn he said "You'll strangle yer eyes!"
That was pretty much the most exciting things that happened whilst I was at my grandparents. And tomorrow I'm meeting Lozz in town, so that should be good.
MoFail
P.S I FORGOT! IT FUCKIN SNOWED ON TUESDAY NIGHT! It looked like this on the following morning:
CRAZY!

Fucking Hairdryers
On my way back from my round, these two chavs are riding down the FOOTPATH on their elastic band-driven hairdryers (i.e mopeds)
It's called a footpath for a reason, asswipes.

Fucking British Summertime
Why must our clocks go forward and back? Going back an hour isn't good when you're at an all-night party.
All-night party + Clocks going back an hour = unbearably long day.

LIAR!
I'm pissed off. My Top Gear magazine told me a new series would be starting tonight. It says 'Top Gear will be back on air 26th October 8PM'
THE HELL IT WAS! Adolf looked on topgear.com and it says it's actually starting NEXT weekend.
For fucks sake Nigel.

"We'll Get You To Nazi Germany"
Pirate Party was good... from what I can remember.
So I got there with Kayleigh and Aaron and there was some fun going on already. Dudley was thrilled when he saw me: he got up from the sofa, took me by the shoulders and said to me "Don't worry, Richard, we'll get you to Nazi Germany." and walked off, leaving me slightly bewildered. Keri arrived and was also pleased to see me. She offered me some of her Fosters and I obliged. Both Keri and Jae started chanting "Chug, chug, chug!" and I ended up dribbling. Not a good look.
Then I ended up in Nate's room playing Guitar Hero. After about 2 songs I got bored so went on the hunt for my own drink. I found my own can of Fosters in the kitchen, but not before Kayleigh ordered me to take a whacking great slug of whiskey.
I finished my first can of Fosters quite quickly, crushed the can against my head and went for a second.
Out in the back garden, Jae was showing off by wheelying in a wheelchair. He did fairly well, only falling off twice and then offered me the chair. I obliged ans decided to go off-road in it. I got stuck. So I finished my second can of Fosters, crushed the can against my head and... passed out. In a wheelchair. I hope there are no pictures...
So I was out of it for the whole night basically. I got woken up by a text from Loz and I think I may have scared her in my reply. Somehow I got from the back, to the front of the house, and I have no recollection of how it happened. I remember hearing Benji's voice but that's the only Benji I encountered that night- I didn't see him whatsoever. I crashed on the sofa in the front room where some nice girl sat next to me holding my hand. I kept apologising for not knowing her name. All I know is she was blonde, but there were a few blonde girls there. No doubt we'll see each other in college...
Then I was CARRIED up to Joel's room by 7 people and dumped on the bed to sober up. Kayleigh came and stroked my hair for god knows how long. Jae announced I had a new nickname - Jonny Two-Pints - and I noticed a poster of Joels that I found interesting. "What the fuck is Jizzy Tissue doing alongside those bands!?" The bands in question were The Enemy and The Wombats and Jizzy Tissue was Lethal Bizzle. Kayleigh was intrigued as to how I got Jizzy Tissue out of Lethal Bizzle so I explained to her about Top Gear Of The Pops from last year where Clarkson described him as Jizzy Tissue.
Dudley joined us and started saying "Richard, you are ginger, but that's alright." He wouldn't shut up. He also yelled at me "Why aren't you making the fucking gravy!?", spitting in my jug as he did.
Then there's a gap inbetween that and being woken up and told to leave Joels room. So I went back downstairs and played more Guitar Hero and Midnight Club 3 in Nate's room. Then we stuck on a Blink 182 DVD and stuck the 5/6 videos on continuous. I got bored of that so joined Chris, Jade, Aaron Kayleigh and Matt back in the front room. Strictly speaking, Matt was fast asleep so he doesn't really count. But we were there, talking about nothing important and then we all scrunched up on the sofa and tried to get at least some sleep. It worked. Kinda.
Morning came and what was left of us piled into the front room and started talking about the previous night and various mishaps (Joel and Nate had a fight, Joel hugged Poppy saying "Dudley, I love Poppy." and other such happenings.) Upon opening the curtains to see grey skies and rain, Dudley exclaimed "Look what a shit day it is!" Chris had to leave us for work and Aaron's parents kindly lifted Kayleigh and I back to our respective homes.
In my defence, I will say that I drank on an empty stomach so the alcohol affected me worse than usual.

Hamlyn for £2 and Cheese Ovaries.
Met up with Kayleigh in town and had a very nice time.
We first went to Greggs so Kayleigh could get something to eat and a woman in the queue asked for something that I misheard as 'Cheese Ovary'. I told Kayleigh this and a disgusted look appeared on her face. We noticed an offer on sausage rolls whereby you could buy 4 for £2. However, we refuse to acknowledge 4, instead we call it Hamlyn (long story). And so it turned into Hamlyn for £2. *shudder*.
We then spent a fair bit of time people watching, and laughing at various knobs. One in question was talking on his phone with a very very big smile on his face. We decided that he was gay and talking to his boyfriend. I wouldn't put it past him.
We then went to find Milli in Primark. That didn't take long at all xD We had a brief chat with her and then went elsewhere.
We ventured back into the Brunel and Kayleigh decided to take me into a photo booth for pictures we wouldn't be paying for...
We then walked to the Outlet Village where I met her friends Gary and Kelsey. It was nice meeting them. Kelsey said I wasn't quite the Mo she had pictured. I wonder how she did picture me...
We then ended up back in Town where we bumped into Joel. He asked Kayleigh if she was going to his Pirate Party and she said yes. They were talking about the party for a while and then Joel, who hardly knows me, said to me "You can come if you want." Result.
And so Kayleigh and I formulated a plan that she comes to mine, talks to Aaron on MSN to arrange transport for me and we go to hers so he can pick both of us up there. It worked.
Expect to see an entry about aforementioned party.
Your friendly neighbourhood Mo.
P.S Kayleigh and I also decided that the number 2 should be eradicated, following suit of Jade Puget. We now count as follows: 1, 3, Hamlyn, 5 and so on...

"Any Reason Why You Look Like A Prick?"
Dressed up for college today. What a fucking palavour!
Since I couldn't get my Nurse Joker outfit sorted, I decided to punk it up. So that meant styling my normally style-less hair. Fun.
Let me tell you, mohawking long hair is not fun. The tips kept flopping over so I decided to hairdry the gel so it would stay. Didn't work. So I used some coloured gel I had, and that worked better. I then decided to spray the right side of my hair green and the left side red. All in all, 3 layers on my hair. Needless to say it was SOLID. Complete the outfit with too many fake piercings, safety pinned jeans, t-shirt with snotty slogan, leather jacket and cheap punk style gloves, and I'm ready to hit the road.
First off, getting credit at my local TESCO. Someone I know was doing work exp there and they saw me. They just said "I'm not gonna ask. Most fake piercings I've seen in my life." and then when I was served, the woman behind the counter didn't say much to me. I wonder why...
Next, the bus journey. I got on the bus, and not soon after a young boy and his father boarded, sitting a few rows in front of me. I caught the kid staring at me with awe. Bless 'im.
Then I walked through town. Luckily I got through unscathed xD
I entered college, and people weren't sure what to make of me. Sarah saw me and called "Mo!" and promptly took a picture. Xander announced to everyone that I was angry at the Government and shouted "Fuck Thatcher!" quite loudly. Shame I had to go to lesson soon after.
Critical Thinking. I walked in and Amy peered round Lori. Her comment- "Wow!" Lori said the same. Shaun just said "What the..?" and Jess decided I looked kind of like John Travolta. Ben turned round and replied "How do you see John Travolta in that!?" Thanks Ben. Johnny, who was on the same bus as me, said "You were the guy I sat next to one the bus! I didn't recognise you!" I don't blame him.
Hour break, and Mullinz decided to take up Laura's mantle of Passion Killer (see Shy Girls Lose) by offering 'poppadom' whenever Loz and I decided to have intimate moments. The urge to crunch his nose was unbearable.
English was ok- I was late and Pete had a quick word. I walked in, sat down and Nia turns to me and says "So, any reason why you look like a prick?" I think that phrase just sums up todays outfit. I just said "Why not?"
Afterwards, I had a nice time with Loz and then was late meeting Tash in the outlet. Oops. Anyway, met up with Tash for a brief time and had a nice chat about iPods and Deathnote.
Having a shower was great- I HAVE MY HAIR BACK!

P.S Bless Milli- on noticing my fake piercings, one of which was my septum, she said twice "You should get your septum done."

Backy Takes Over.
Oh dear lord.
It would seem Jack Backwell's habit of shortening words is spreading.
Kayleigh saying 'Shug, Calc and Vits' and I've just replied to a comment:
'They needed someone who could work 30 hours unfortch.'
Unfortch? UNFORTCH?
I blame Nigel.

Goat Fucker
Oops. It seems I haven't updated all week. Time to rely on my memory, and pick out the best bits...
MONDAY: Elena and I again had a Win-Fail war. To be honest, that is getting quite boring. But when Dave started talking to us about genre, he gave an example of heavy metal. He said 'If you saw a cd with a band dressed in lots of leather and beards with a name like.. I don't know, GOAT FUCKER, you'd expect them to play metal.' The name Goat Fucker reduced one girl to hysterics for a few minutes. That was the only exeptional thing that happened really.
TUESDAY: Nothing much happened at college, the day only livened up when I went to Scouts. Basically I spent the night running round Lydiard Park in the semi-darkness (damned light pollution). That was good.
WEDNESDAY: Again, not much happened besides Communication with Ron. Ron had mixed up our usual seating arrangement so that Elena and I had Amanda sat between us. But that changed after the break- back to business as usual xD. Then I walkied to Town with Kayleigh and Bexiie. Bexiie was on about how she had 36 friends on MySpace (I have 76) and Kayleigh turns and says bluntly 'I don't care.' Classic.
After I did my paper round, I went to meet Dan, Gary, Debbie, Kim, Katie (I think) and others on the top floor of Debenhams car park. One of the best moments was when Katie took off her bra, showed it to everyone and said 'Is this not the biggest bra you ever did see?' Dan agreed, took it from her, walked over to the edge of the carpark and DROPPED THE BRA. That. Was. HILARIOUS! Katie went down to retrieve it, pissed off needless to say.
THURSDAY: I decided to go to Tim's Critical Thinking lesson and regretted it. Why did I leave my DS at home!?
Tutor One-on-One meetings, although Sarah and Lauren were both there xD They had theirs as well. We spent most of the time cracking eachother up. It's Nigels fault. When Kayleigh had her tutor, we sat outside being general idiots xD Good day.
So that's the highlights of my week. Maybe next week I'll update on a daily basis...

"Cex Is Just PISSING Me Off!"
Today has been alright. Met up with Hayley in Freshbrook so we could wander into town together. We got to town and met with Jen and her friends and then we kind of drifted apart... Ah well. I haven't towned it with Hayley in ages so s'all good.
First we toddled to Trinket Box so Hayley could change her lip piercing. She got a pink one. Then we went to Giggles and Skywalkers looking for wigs (why not?) to no avail. So we headed back for the centre to Partyland, see if we could get anything there. We didn't. So we trawled through the Brunel centre for a bit, stopping off for me to hand in CV's to Hawkins Bizaare and The Collectors Corner. We then went to Waterstones to look for a burlesque book for Hayley. I don't know why we were doing this, but whilst we were we bumped into Jen and her friends. They went downstairs whilst Hayley and I went to Maccy D's to get some lunch. Cheeseburger happy meals yo! We sat outside since it was a glorious day where some people were celebrating the life of John Peel, and a few local bands played some stuff. All in all quite loud.
After, we waltzed over to Cex to see if I could sell my games, since they advertise 'We Buy Your Games and DVDs for CASH!' I got in there and they had a notice that they weren't buying goods for cash. For the 4th time of me trying. Cex has pissed me off. I'm considering boycotting the damn place. After that, I was a bit hacked off, and shouted "Cex is just PISSING me off!" although I pronounce Cex as sex so to passers by, it may have sounded quite strange...
We then wandered into the centre somewhere where Ash texted me announcing his arrival in town. I replied saying we were by the Big Silver Clock. He met us there and upon noticing my hair, he says "Looking all Emo fuck today Martyn." Cheers Ash.
So we wandered around Town for not a long time at all when we got bored and started walking back to West Swindon. We got most of the way there and Hayley stopped at a bus stop- "My feet hurt and I feel crap so I'm waiting for a bus." Ash carried on walking and I stayed with Hayley. I think that pissed Ash off. The bus came and we got to ASDA when we passed Ash. I got off, saying goodbye to Hayley and rejoined Ash. We then went over to his for a spot of Guitar Hero. Needless to say I failed. Although not as bad as Ash when he decided it'd be a good idea to use the Hyperspeed cheat and put it on 5. Playing Dragonforce. On Expert. Mind you, he also used the 'No Fail' cheat, so it quite humourous watching.
Then I went home, had tea, blah blah blah. End.

First we toddled to Trinket Box so Hayley could change her lip piercing. She got a pink one. Then we went to Giggles and Skywalkers looking for wigs (why not?) to no avail. So we headed back for the centre to Partyland, see if we could get anything there. We didn't. So we trawled through the Brunel centre for a bit, stopping off for me to hand in CV's to Hawkins Bizaare and The Collectors Corner. We then went to Waterstones to look for a burlesque book for Hayley. I don't know why we were doing this, but whilst we were we bumped into Jen and her friends. They went downstairs whilst Hayley and I went to Maccy D's to get some lunch. Cheeseburger happy meals yo!

Old Town Registration Plates
I very almost missed the bus this morning. Oh dear.
Not that it mattered since I 'forgot' to go to Tim's Critical Thinking lesson... But anyway, I spent the two hours in Gay Bay rather than being bored outta my mind. The occupants of Gay Bay for these hours were: Milli, Dudley, Jenny and Maggot for the first hour, and then Maaike joined us for some of the second hour.
Conversation topic for the duration of the first hour- Milli's funeral. Apparently, when Milli dies, she wants to be Taxidermied. Apparently, that's illegal. Except in Alabama. So, we hatched a marvelous plan- when Milli is on her death bed, we'd fly her to Alabama and taxiderm her there. Quite.
We kind of gave up on that plan, and started talking about funeral proceedings instead. Milli told us that she wanted to be placed atop a weed bonfire, drenched in Tequila and set alight. So this sparked off funeral plannings for Dudley's funeral. Maggot suggested put him in a Viking Longboat, push it out on a lake and flaming arrows are shot at this 'coffin boat' so it bursts into flame in the middle of a lake.
We then decided that funeral's were a bit of a morbid subject so we started talking about wedding days. Milli isn't going to have a Maid of Honour, but a Maid of Horror. Fair enough. Then Dudley turned to me and suggested we get together. We decided that Chris was gonna be either the Vicar (wouldn't Chris be a great vicar?) or Dudley's Best Man. Sorry Dudley, still haven't got a date xD
Whilst we're on the subject of Dudley, he announced to everyone that he'd spent the night alone in the middle of Old Town, stoned. Apparently, it was 'fucking cold'. He came in carrying what I can only describe as a tent bag. He showed the contents of this bag and he had stolen 5 registration plates. He also shared his brilliant but useless invention- Bullet-proof registration plates.
Conversation topic of hour 2: Debates on who was better/fitter. This was when Maaike had joined us. Maggot had in her possession all 3 Pirates of the Carribbean DVD's. Of course this sparked off a huge arguemtn of which film Johnny Depp was fitter in. Maggot took an incredibly long time deliberating this. Even then I don't think she came up with an answer. We spent the remainder of the time facing each other with Person vs Person debates. I can't remember the majority of these people, but all I know is Mike said "It all comes down to this: M Shadows or Synyster Gates?" I looked at him and replied "Zacky Vengeance." Then, rather than just including film/music stars, we turned our attention to TV stars. Well, more Mike did when he said "Dr. Cox or JD?" I think the majority vote was for JD. then Mike suggested Elliot or Jordan. I went for Elliot.
When the two hours of 'lesson' were over, I started circling the stairs for no good reason. I quickly got bored of this so went to play more Mario Kart on my DS. Then Loz came and we soon had to wander up to Tutor with Nigel. That was as useless as ever. Sarah was given a new timetable which still wasn't right. I was so tempted to yell at Nigel "Damn it Nigel, can't you do anything right!?" Evrything is Nigel's fault y'see. Fact.
For the proceeding three hours of break (Kayleigh's break, I coulda gone home) I sat with Loz and Sarah in the library whilst they attempted to do their english homework. Aaron and Kayleigh soon joined us and we had a jolly good time just sat their talking about nothing. Kayleigh was highly amused by one of Sarah's monkehs as she kept flailing it's arms around. If I admit, it was pretty hilarious. After two hours, Loz had to go to photography. I followed, since I had forgotten my zipper at the Gay Bay.
I returned to the library where more monkeh madness ensued. Then Kayleigh wanted to get some Relentless so we left the library. Well, she saw Tom Mullins on the way out which could only mean one thing- hours of non-stop laughter. When those two get together they are MENTAL!
Soon after, Kayleigh and Srah went off for their lesson and I headed home.
I almost fell asleep on the bus! I was sat there, listening to my music almost nodding off. I decided to get off the bus and walk to wake myself up. The fact that I saw my sister and her friends helped also. I say friends, there is one guy whom we all don't like- Tom. It's been a while since I saw him last and he hasn't really changed. He still can't ride a bike xD and as he was cycling off, long blonde hair flowing bahind him, I turned to everyone else- "You what Tom reminds me of? A Barbie doll." Not the face, just the hair. That's how crap this guy is xD Everyone laughed and agreed.
So to summarise: Milli wants everyone stoned at her funeral, Dudley has learnt not to spend the night in Old Town (I hope), EVERYTHING is Nigel's fault, Kayleigh + Mullins = BAD!, Tom = Barbie.

"You'll Always Be Santa To Me."
LOL! On the bus this morning, the bus driver cocked up- where he should've turned left, he went straight on. I didn't complain, it took me closer to college.
This morning was good, got in and met with the crew. Jae was in at twenty to nine, even though his lesson didn't start until FIVE. He's mental, is Jae. Saw Kayleigh and gave her her jacket she'd left behind back.
Communication with Dave was fun, Elena and I spent pretty much the whole lesson playing 'I Win'- basically one of us would say/do something and the other would try and beat it. If they failed, the challenger would say "I win! Fail!" to the other person. Yes, it's a pointless game but it passed the time. I think I won several times.
After the lesson we met Zander randomly and started talking about random crap, including the fact that Elena hasn't seen The Dark Knight (fail) or the Rejected Cartoons by Don Hertzfelt (another fail). Upon my mentioning of these epic 'toons, Zander agreed that Elena failed, stating that "His [Don] pencil isn't graphite, it's win!" I was inclined to agree.
Zander then left us for his lesson and so Elena and I went on our way to the Gay Bay. Elena was called by on of her chums and she said she was on the second floor when really, she was on the first. Yet another fail, Elena.
We got to the Gay Bay and discovered a small pole, the type that you find with velvet rope. And so, Xander decided it'd be an idea to hump it. Meanwhile, Jake had given Kayleigh his Relentless and she insisted that if anyone wanted some, she would feed it to them. She 'fed' Bexi without any damage but it came to me and I kinda dribbled. Oops. Kayleigh then proceeded to steal the scarf that I stole from Jen on Saturday. We had more fun with the small silver pole and then I went to join Elena, whom by this point we had decided that she'd be doing my round with me, since she had the same break I had. Lotty came for a while and then this cute girl called Crystal (she has a nickname, but I'm unsure who to spell it) who, shock horror, is SHORTER than ME! I felt tall next to her. >:]
Xander then decided to leave for town, and came over to hug me and my posse. When he hugged me, he whispered in my ear "You'll always be Santa to me." Needless to say I looked at with with a 'WHAT THE FUCK!?' look on my face. So he went off and Elena and I buggered off to mine to do my paper round.
We got to mine and I saw our shiny Volvo on the drive. Adolf was home ¬_¬ So I said to Elena "We'll just dump our stuff in the garage." I let her steal Liz's bike so she could keep up. And yet she was still too slow. Another fail, Ellie.
We got back to mine in time for me to buy some lunch (pack of sandwiches, two dark kit-kats and two Lucozades) and catch the bus back to college, where we got in just in time for our lessons (our rooms were directly opposite to each other. How uncanny is that!?)
Media with Julian was pants as usual. We listened to some crappy radio play series and Kayleigh's quote from her brother instantly came to mind- "They always have some gay theme." I had to stifle my laughter.
Julain set us a research task and I buggered off to the library to do that. I never did go back to that room xD Whilst in the library, I discovered ebuddy.com, so I kind of have MSN back, but not fully. I miss it so.

"Why Didn't You Tell Me It Was Quarter Past 11, Knob!?"
Last night was brilliant. I tried to duplicate the hair from Flock of Seagulls, but my hair is too long and the sides kept flopping over. In the end I gave up, rinsed the copious amount of product out of it and blow-dried it, leaving it natural. Laura, Lotty, Elana & Kayleigh- that is the ONLY time you're going to see my hair like that, so I hoped you enjoyed it. I was then waiting for Kayleigh to come and dump her stuff. That was over with very quickly, and so we were whisked off to Lotty's. The door opened, reavling a gothic Laura and a Gene Simmons-esque Hope, complete with blonde mullet. We were officially in the 80's. We migrated into the lounge for a bit of socialising and communal bobbing to some 80s tunes. Lotty disappeared for a bit and came back, announcing that "For once, Mum has told me to turn the music UP!" Classic 80s tunes blared through the night, which had some interesting moments, to say the least. The first was Lotty, Hope and another girl whose name I can't remember (I think it was Alice?) acting along to Don't You Want Me. Needless to say I took videos:
Next was Kayleigh having an epic guitar solo in The Final Countdown, stealing many moves from famous guitarists. Which reminds me, Lotty: NEXT TIME YOU HAVE AN 80S PARTY, HAVE GUITAR HERO ROCKS THE 80S. Then, during Ever Fallen In Love, Kayleigh spent her time trying to get Hope back. Thoroughly good acting on both parts, it must be said. I was thrilled to see that Lotty's cake was a Rubiks Cube. Rubiks Cubes are the best!When it came to the lighting of the sole candle Lotty had plunged into the Cube, we all sang the compulsory 'Happy Birthday' and then Kayleigh demanded a speech. Hope gave a story of how she'd know Lotty her whole life and that she was one of the best people she'd ever known. Kayleigh then gave largely the same speech in two sentences- "This is Lotty. She is a Legend." Even Emma the dog had to agree. Soon, it was time to leave. Kayleigh and I started walking back to mine and we got about a fifth of the way there whenI suddenly realised- "Shit, I've left my camera behind!" So we headed back to Lotty's to pick up the accused camera, all the while Kayleigh dodging snails. I made the mistake of saying "I wonder what life you be like for something that small..." Cue Kayleigh's line of "I dunno, you tell me." ¬_¬ Thanks Kay.
After the walk home, we just sat in my room for a while, talking about random crap. Then Adolf declared that "It's one in the morning, so how about lights out in 10-15 minutes." Whatever, anything to keep him sweet. Then Kayleigh adjourned to the living room, where I joined her. We spent half the night drifting in and out of sleep on the rug (Kayleigh also kangaroo-kicked my knee) and then we finally crawled back into my room.
Next thing I know, Kayleigh trows my lucious Dream Touch cushion in my face, exclaiming "Why Didn't You Tell Me It Was Quarter Past 11, Knob!?" I didn't even know it was that late. We then just sat around talking until about noon, when I decided to try and sort my MSN out. The bastard still won't work ¬_¬. Meanwhile, I ripped Blaqk Audio to my computer, and now it's on my mp3 player, ready for the bus journey tomorrow morn.
We then browsed YouTube for videos of Smith Puget and a drunken Synyster Gates. And the Rev chasing a duck. I then decided that I wanted a drink, so went down to get one and I came back up to find a fully dressed Kayleigh (by this time it was something like twenty past 2). We then spent the rest of the afternoon watching The Young Ones, which was brilliant.
Upon finishing the first series of The Young Ones, Kayleigh called her folks to pick her up. She said they'd be here at quarter past 6, which gave us a fair bit of time to kill. We must've spent 20 minutes wrestling over the DT cushion. What a great way to waste time.
And now, I'm supposed to be doing some homework but I really can't be arsed. Instead, I'm plotting.

Oh, aaand...
I have found THE perfect calender for 2009.
Does anyone remember Wacky Races? I saw it and was all "Must. Get. Calender." Hopefully for Chrimbo...

"We're Not Going To Fucking Hong Kong!!!"
Today was fun. Besides the doing-fecking-round bit. I am actually gettin sick of that round -_-
Went into Town to meet Jen at 12. She turned up 10 minutes late ¬_¬ but it was good, 'cos I saw Jae walking out of Debenhams and he pointed at me and yelled 'It's Mo!' I also saw Tony, which was equally as good.
Jen waltzed up to me with some of her friends who'd tagged along. These were Sophie, Fern, Hannah, Taylor and Luke. First stop: Primark. The girls went to look at underwear, and us guys followed. We lost the girls for a while so it was Luke Taylor and I stood around in the underwear section. That was slightly awkward.
Next we went to Woolworths, where Luke got a cup of sweets, filled to the brim, and took it to New Look.
Whilst the girls spent AGES doing nothing in particular, Luke, Taylor and I spent our time 'dropping' various candy onto the elevator, just for the hell of it. That was great. We then got bored of that so I suggeseted we go and sit on the sofa they have on the ground floor. We sat there for what seemed like FOREVER, just talking about nothing and stealing Luke's sweets. Three chav girls walked past and were like "Hi!". I recall one of them yelling "Fuck me!" We were all 'the fuck?'. They came back after about 15 minutes and we were still there. They looked at us with puzzled expressions and I just said to them "Yeah, we live here. Got a problem?" They walked away after that and Taylor turned to me and goes "Wouldn't it be funny if they came back tomorrow and we were here again?" I cracked up.
After a couple of 5 second calls to the girls telling them to 'hurry the fuck up', they finally appeared. We then made a beeline for Blue Banana.
In Blunana, Fern got another ear piercing and I got a couple pairs of gloves. I only wanted one pair, but because they wouldn't accept my debit card for under £5, I told Jen to go get a pair she liked and I'd buy them. I bought the two pairs and announced "Because I bought these gloves, they are officially mine." and put them in my bag >:] Jen didn't like that much...
We then went to Hawkins Bizaare.
In Hawkins, we spent the time just mucking about. The staff were dressed in pyjamas, exclaiming "It's Pyjama day!" It would be interesting to work in there methinks. We found some amusing stuff in there like Penis/Boob pasta, and a voice changer gadget. We decided that it would be a good idea to call Callum and talk to him through it. The call went a bit like this:
Callum:- "What do you want?"
Me:- "What do you mean 'what do I want'? I want you!"
*callum hangs up*
Everyone cracked up. It was HILARIOUS!
After Hawkins we went somewhere else, and then somewhere else, and a few more shops. Luke and Taylor had it in their heads that I'd be buying them each a Subway. I told them where to go :]
In the end, I bought myself a sub, as did Luke and Taylor. Luke turned to me and goes "That was an awesome sandwich" I agreed, saying I fucking LOVE Subway.
We then ended up back at Hawkins for no reason, and we just sat in there, pretty much on the floor. Reading random books and mucking about with half a guitar.
After the pointless second visit to Hawkins, we started making our way back to Fleming Way (what a horrid name for a road.) and, upon passing some travel shops, Sohpie grabbed my wrist, dragged me over to the window and said "Where are you taking me on holiday then?" I was like 'What!?' then she had to pick one of the most expensive places- Hong Kong. She kept hold of me and said "So, you're paying for all of us to go, yeah?" I declined but she kept going on and on. In the end I just roared in her face "We're Not Going To Fucking Hong Kong!!!" She laughed. Which I found rude.
Soon, we bumped into Callum, who was in town with his brother. He looked at me and said "Why are you hanging out with a bunch of year 10's Martyn? Did all your other friends leave you?" That pissed me off a fair bit. I didn't think of it then, but what I should've said is 'Why are you in town with your brother? Did your friends not want to join you?' or something along those lines. I'm still slightly mad now.
And now, I need to go and sort out my 80s hair, before Kayleigh arrives at 7.15.

Went into Town to meet Jen at 12. She turned up 10 minutes late ¬_¬ but it was good, 'cos I saw Jae walking out of Debenhams and he pointed at me and yelled 'It's Mo!' I also saw Tony, which was equally as good.
Jen waltzed up to me with some of her friends who'd tagged along. These were Sophie, Fern, Hannah, Taylor and Luke. First stop: Primark. The girls went to look at underwear, and us guys followed. We lost the girls for a while so it was Luke Taylor and I stood around in the underwear section. That was slightly awkward.
Next we went to Woolworths, where Luke got a cup of sweets, filled to the brim, and took it to New Look.
Whilst the girls spent AGES doing nothing in particular, Luke, Taylor and I spent our time 'dropping' various candy onto the elevator, just for the hell of it. That was great. We then got bored of that so I suggeseted we go and sit on the sofa they have on the ground floor. We sat there for what seemed like FOREVER, just talking about nothing and stealing Luke's sweets. Three chav girls walked past and were like "Hi!". I recall one of them yelling "Fuck me!" We were all 'the fuck?'. They came back after about 15 minutes and we were still there. They looked at us with puzzled expressions and I just said to them "Yeah, we live here. Got a problem?" They walked away after that and Taylor turned to me and goes "Wouldn't it be funny if they came back tomorrow and we were here again?" I cracked up.
After a couple of 5 second calls to the girls telling them to 'hurry the fuck up', they finally appeared. We then made a beeline for Blue Banana.
In Blunana, Fern got another ear piercing and I got a couple pairs of gloves. I only wanted one pair, but because they wouldn't accept my debit card for under £5, I told Jen to go get a pair she liked and I'd buy them. I bought the two pairs and announced "Because I bought these gloves, they are officially mine." and put them in my bag >:] Jen didn't like that much...
We then went to Hawkins Bizaare.
In Hawkins, we spent the time just mucking about. The staff were dressed in pyjamas, exclaiming "It's Pyjama day!" It would be interesting to work in there methinks. We found some amusing stuff in there like Penis/Boob pasta, and a voice changer gadget. We decided that it would be a good idea to call Callum and talk to him through it. The call went a bit like this:
Callum:- "What do you want?"
Me:- "What do you mean 'what do I want'? I want you!"
*callum hangs up*
Everyone cracked up. It was HILARIOUS!
After Hawkins we went somewhere else, and then somewhere else, and a few more shops. Luke and Taylor had it in their heads that I'd be buying them each a Subway. I told them where to go :]
In the end, I bought myself a sub, as did Luke and Taylor. Luke turned to me and goes "That was an awesome sandwich" I agreed, saying I fucking LOVE Subway.
We then ended up back at Hawkins for no reason, and we just sat in there, pretty much on the floor. Reading random books and mucking about with half a guitar.
After the pointless second visit to Hawkins, we started making our way back to Fleming Way (what a horrid name for a road.) and, upon passing some travel shops, Sohpie grabbed my wrist, dragged me over to the window and said "Where are you taking me on holiday then?" I was like 'What!?' then she had to pick one of the most expensive places- Hong Kong. She kept hold of me and said "So, you're paying for all of us to go, yeah?" I declined but she kept going on and on. In the end I just roared in her face "We're Not Going To Fucking Hong Kong!!!" She laughed. Which I found rude.
Soon, we bumped into Callum, who was in town with his brother. He looked at me and said "Why are you hanging out with a bunch of year 10's Martyn? Did all your other friends leave you?" That pissed me off a fair bit. I didn't think of it then, but what I should've said is 'Why are you in town with your brother? Did your friends not want to join you?' or something along those lines. I'm still slightly mad now.
And now, I need to go and sort out my 80s hair, before Kayleigh arrives at 7.15.

"Ice Cream Stealing, Bin Theiving Avian Rats!"
Just got in from tea out with my dear Papa, and it was brilliant.
We spent most of the evening making fun of my sister, Dad mocking her use of 'Like' and how gullable she is. I am not kidding when I say she said "Really!?" to the age old 'Gullable doesn't appear in the dictionary' line. I love my sister xD
I told Dad about the 80's party I'm off to on Saturday, and said I was undecided about my hairstyle and he suggested a style from Flock of Seagulls.
And here it is. Yes, my hair is hopefully going to be like that of Mr circled here. It's gonna be immense.
I was ordered to look on Google Images for the style by searching 'Flock of Seagulls' and I jokingly said "What, and come up with a load pictures of birds?" and he just replied "No, you'll definately get the band." Which I did xD
But when we started talking about the birds, Dad expressed his disgust for them b describing them as "Ice cream stealing, bin theiving avian rats!" Liz tried to point out they don't steal ice cream but rather chips. Dad replied with "They steal all manner of things.", prompting my dear sister to come out with "So they can steal things like hair and virginity?" Me and Dad proceeded to laugh. Dad told her "I said they steal all manner of things, not everything." Turning on the sarcasm, he says "Actually, they did steal my hair" (he's bald y'see) and Liz, hilariously, shows her true gullableness by exclaiming "Really!?". Cue more laughter from Dad and I.
Moving from the subject of the 80's and flying rodents, we (by which I mean Liz) started talking about Heath Ledger's Joker, and the amazing pencil trick he pulls of. Dad explains how it really isn't that hard to stick a pencil through someone's eye, since it's nothing but soft tissue to the back of your skull- 1. Eyeball 2.Optic nerve 3. Brain. Beautiful.
We then started talking about death and the worst ways to die. Dad is petrified of either Drowning or Burning to death. I don't blame him really. And it was just as well that we'd stopped eating by then. The conversation closed promptly after we were talking about Liz near drowning and the horrific pain of being burnt, and Dad's closing comment of "What a morbid subject!"
We then had dessert (Belgian Waffle Stack) and he brought us home. Mum was in the shower so we watched The Simpsons whilst we waited. Mum came down, started ranting about her job, and then Dad left. See him in another two weeks.
In other news, dear Kayleigh made me a new blog banner simply because she was bored. Bless. Thank you Kay!

So It Turns Out Pigeons Can Smoke...
Today = a mix of all sorts really.
I was much happier than yesterday which is good :D although Media Studies with Una was a bit of a drag. The only interesting bit was drawing movie posters near the end of the lesson.
So from one lesson straight into another. Although my english lesson was again effectively cancelled. Roll on a 2 hour break. Which I spent in our usual spot, sat on the floor. The floor was good.
Pigeon waltzed on over to join our group, and Kayleigh jumped to the chance of making friends. Every so often she'd turn to me with a huge 'I'VE MADE FRIENDS WITH PIGEON!' grin on her face. So joined in, and it turns out Pigeon's name is Kieran. He eventually left us for a cigarette. Hence the Smoking Pigeon.
Kayleigh left for her Geography trip of measuring a river, and spent the next half hour eating my lunch and sitting on Jake's knee. Jake, your knee is quite comfortable :D Although he forgot to Goodbye Hug me. I was annoyed about that.
Communication with Ron was fun, since absolutley NO ONE in the class was listening, yet he continued talking xD Elena 'shared' her Oreo's with me (I stole 3 of the available 4) and decided it would be a laugh to tie my hair in pigtails. In the end, my ears got cold so I took them out.
During the break from Ron, I bought 2 cans of Relentless and downed them both within 5 minutes. Jae proceeded to stand on both cans, causing them to stay on his shoes. I pronounced he had a medical condition know as Can Foot.
Back in Ron's lesson, he started talking about... I forget what it was but he did something horrifying- he took the nearest chair to me, pulled it right next to me and SAT DOWN NEXT TO ME. I froze in horror. I don't think I've fully recovered.
Waiting at the bus stop, I was stunned by the sheer amount of people waiting for the same bus. Needless to say, I waited for a less packed bus to arrive. Whilst I was waiting, Elena and Lotty appeared. We had a good old chin wag about nothing and then we discovered that Elena and I have the same size shoes. So we swapped one shoe. She has my left Gola slip-on, I have her left Rocket Dog shoe. We'll be swapping back tomorrow. I hope.
I was debating about wearing my vintage, 100% real leather jacket to college tomorrow, but then Kayleigh kindly reminded me that Benji would probably kill me. Because of her, I will live to see another day. It'll just have to wait until Lotty's 80's birthday party on Saturday.

All the best things are free.
My english lesson today was great- Teacher told us 'If you don't have a one on one meeting today, you can leave.' and since I didn't have a 1:1, I left :D
Extending my normal 4 hour break to about 6 hours... so I went home to do my round aafter an hour, came back for half of Kayleigh's break. By which time I was miserable as sin :( I was told to smile countless times. On recollection, I have no idea why I was so depressed (or 'mopey' as Jae later described my state).
After Kay went off to have two hours of Ron, I went into town to claim my FREE regular Mi-shake. I chose Kinder Bueno and it was fantabulously scrumptious. And I picked up another Loyalty Card on the way out. I like Mi-shake's.
I went back up to college and spent the next 2 hours curled up on the floor. Jae came over and played 'You Are A Pirate' in an effort to make me smile. It worked briefly. I was still on the floor when Weenie came over and asked what was up. I said nothing, unconvincingly, and she unloaded a phrase which helped me snap out of it- 'There's always someone worse off.' Thank you, Weenie. Because of you, I am sane.
I then looked at my £6 Blue Banana bag, and decided 'That's a bit dull' and started colouring it. This facinated other members of 'The Chairs Croo' (namely Ellie, Dudley and some other guy) and they soon joined in. So now, through team=work, we created a masterpiece. Using just four felt-tip pens.
High-five you guys. Oh, and Ellie let me sign her breast :3
A huge thanks to Lauren, Keri & Benji, you guys were a great help today. I appreciate it alot.

Ch-ch-ch-changes
It's amazing to think how tastes can change.
I never used to like Russell Brand, for example. I thought he was juat a loud, obnoxious git. But since watching him Live on Channel 4, I've realised that, actually, he's quite a funny bloke.
It's a similar story for Jeremy Clarkson. I used to see him as my idol, the one person I wanted to be, but now I find some of his jokes in bad taste, and so I don't like him as much as I did.
The same can be said for music. There was a time when my sister wouldn't shut up about Avenged Sevenfold, and how Synyster Gates was the greatest guy alive. Now, she won't shut up about Caleb Follohill from Kings of Leon, and she's recently bought McFly's new album. A far cry from the likes of M Shadows, I'm sure you'll agree.
I'm not completely innocent either. The main bulk of my music on my mp3 player are bands like Airbourne, AFI, Escape The Fate, The Blackout and other such guitar-driven stuff. But recently, I can be found to be listening to ATC, Rihanna, Avril Lavigne, Jeffree Star and Busted. I'll admit there is still a prominent guitar sound in some of the bands, but it isn't as heavy as the others. More of a pop sound than a rock sound. But then ATC and Jeffree Star are more... ELECTRONIC than the likes of Busted.
And you know what? I am not ashamed that I like Busted and Jeffree Star, because they are amazing. You wouldn't catch me listening to 50 Cent though.

"It didn't ding!"
Spent the day in town with my sister, which wasn't all bad. She kept walking off to look at 'her' shops, saying she'd meet me here and there. She kept me waiting for AGES!
I filled my Mi-shake Loyalty Card with a large Sour Skittles Shake. Needless to say, it was fairly disgusting. I beleive I said that to Liz like, 5 times.
After about 3 hours in town, I decided to drag her to Borders by ASDA Wal-Mart. We got on the bus and started our adventure (we'd never gone up there by bus) and we travelled through Oakhurst and Red House. It all looked the same. I 'rang' the bell when we were nearing our stop and Liz just pokes me. She said "It didn't ding!" and I just looked at her. "Why don't you do it yourself, then, rather than poking me!?" is what I said to her. Idiot.
Borders was good, I bought Liz and myself a Frappuchino each, which was good. She started talking about The Joker and the wierd dream she had about him last night. I think those posters are doing something to her. And then she moves on to the subject of how she has all but one of the Joker posters. She describes it and then I make the mistake of saying "I think I saw that one downstairs."
So now she has ALL of the available Joker posters, besides the 3-D one. Which is her next target. She might have to save though, since she now owes me about £5 :D
Upon buying the poster, I was served by a friend whom I haven't seen/spoken to in YONKS! It was nice to see her again, although it would've been nicer had she not been working. Ah well, we'll sort something :)

I Don't Need This...
MSN still being a fucktard and not letting me sign in. At a time when I've been the lowest since god-knows-when. At a time where I want to be talking to friends, just to keep me sane. At a time where I need people to talk to outside the family.
Even on my Mother's laptop it won't sign me in. Could it just be my account then? Maybe I should make a completely new one and just start again.
I've never felt more alone than I am now.
This. Is. Shit.

Who do you think you're kidding Mr Hitler?
Off to bed last night, step-'father' tells me that "I've just got a warning about our internet usage. So it means no internet for at least 3 nights I'm afraid." Of course he means only I will have to miss out whilst he happily goes on about downloading overnight, and leaving his computer on whilst watching TV. And I get the rap when I have MSN online whilst playing Resi Evil. The only reason why I'v managed to do this update is 'cos I'm on a college mac.
So no blog updates for the next 3 days. Or MySpace. Or MSN. So expect me to be socially dead in the next 3 days.
Oh, and Korey?
I WANT MY JACKET BACK.
Thanx :3

Pocky & The Van
Visited the oriental supermarket down in Bristol earlier and I was pleased to ee they had Pocky. So pleased, I 'asked' Dad to buy me a box >:D No quite as big as the ones I got in Telford, but Pocky nonetheless.
Travelling back, we got stuck behind a van at some traffic lights. Dad suddenly pointed something wrong with the van: on the section where the rear window should've been, there was a window wiper. At a place where there was no window to wipe. I had to laugh.

Banana Phone
So decided (was 'coerced') to go out for a bit on my bike with my sister (on her own bike- we don't have a tandem) and so we cycled to the nearest park, where we hogged the swings for an hour. :) Even if swinging makes me ill.
Anyhoo, we were sat there and a group of like, 11year olds came to the swings next to us and pap started to blare from their phones. The pap being 'Banana Phone' and some crap medly of squeaky toy noises. And Liz has just informed me that they played 'Lazytown' too.
What possesses kids these days!?
Liz and I looked at each other, and we said: 'Let's get the fuck outta here.'
So here I am plotting my revenge on people who use their walkman phones to play crap. I'll get one and play AFI on full volume. Eat that, Bitches.

Why!?
I find it annoying how other people can complain of hangovers when they've drunk the same amount as me and I can't 'cos I don't feel them.
FUCK SAKE, I DON'T WANNA BE SUPERMAN!
Gimme a hangover when I've been drinkin damn it.
FUCK SAKE, I DON'T WANNA BE SUPERMAN!
Gimme a hangover when I've been drinkin damn it.
Yum.
So I got drunk on a rum&coke and 2 beers last night (minus the hangover this morning) and I've just drank a can of Carling...
You can almost taste the dependancy on alcohol I face in later life.

'I need your help...'
Happily up at half 8 this morning, I sign in to MSN to check my e-mails, and reading one, I found this:
'I need your urgent assistance in transferring the sum of (12.4M Pounds sterling)Twelve Million Four Hundred Thousand Pounds Starling immediately to your account.'
What the fuck am I, a 16 year old student, going to do with £12,400,000!?

The DICk in DICTATOR
My stepdad has just waltzed in saying how the household network is going 'crazy'. I'm happily playing Resident Evil 4 and he asks me to check my computer. I oblige and he sees that I've got MSN open and on MySpace. Apparently, I'm 'wasting the small allowence of internet we get'. He says that if we have to end up paying for it, I can kiss my sweet-ass interweb goodbye.
Hitler much?
Hitler much?
'Which type of voice annoys you..?'
Today was okay.
Two hours of Media Studies with Una wasn't nice. Especially since I didn't have a break AT ALL. After Her, I had an hour of Pete and English Language. I feel Pete is the most school-teacher-like of all my teachers at College. He waits when people are talking over him -.-
Lunch break came, and I met with Korey. She was sat on Benji again and then Mike comes and sits on her. Once she escapes, we go for a walk around the college perimeter which was fun, especially since a Chav crawled into the car park blaring some R'n'B crap. Korey announces that it's her favourite song.
We arrive back at HQ i.e The Chairs where Chris is massaging Kerry. He gives Korey and I a psychotic stare and says 'I'm a good masseuse.' I wouldn't question it, not with that stare.
Time for third and final lesson dawns, and I suddenly realise: 'Two hours of Ron!' Considering Ron talks like his tongue is twice the size it should be, it's not nice. So I sit down, and Elena plonks herself down beside me. I tell her about my certain distaste for Ron and tell her my plan of an emotional breakdown as soon as he walks in the room. Naturally, I forgot to act out my plan ><. But anyway, after an hour of being bored to tears, we're granted a ten minute break, whereby I stop by a vending machine. A girl in front of me selects a pack of Sour Skittles to purchase and it gets stuck at the last bit. She makes the mistake of walking off >:) I make the same selection and buy one, get one free! Saving one for Critical thinking with Tim tomorrow -.- Back in the lesson, I munch the Skittles, hoping to stay alive. Elena laughs ¬¬
Ron starts talking about how people have their own voice patterns and asks the class if there're any voice they don't like... There I am, loathing this man and his voice, and he asks that question. Brilli-fucking-ant. Elena proceeds to laugh.
Lesson over, I meet Korey and we walk to town. For once, Food did not strike up in our conversation! We start moaning about how we hate various family members instead. All good fun. Time to part, we go our separate ways, but not before I can moan about how short I am (TOO short).
And then bus journey, paper round blah blah blah, The End.
Two hours of Media Studies with Una wasn't nice. Especially since I didn't have a break AT ALL. After Her, I had an hour of Pete and English Language. I feel Pete is the most school-teacher-like of all my teachers at College. He waits when people are talking over him -.-
Lunch break came, and I met with Korey. She was sat on Benji again and then Mike comes and sits on her. Once she escapes, we go for a walk around the college perimeter which was fun, especially since a Chav crawled into the car park blaring some R'n'B crap. Korey announces that it's her favourite song.
We arrive back at HQ i.e The Chairs where Chris is massaging Kerry. He gives Korey and I a psychotic stare and says 'I'm a good masseuse.' I wouldn't question it, not with that stare.

Paper Airplanes (Makeshift Wings)
Just got back from good ol' Scouts where we spent the whole night making paper airplanes and competing in a 'tournament'.
Me, being 'oh so clever' *snort* decided to be individual and take a magazine to make planes out of, as well as a 'How To..' book, with fancy designs (only 3 of which I tried). The magazine plan didn't work too well. Paper was too flimsy and shiny and it just didn't work.
So the moral is: Fuck the magazine airplanes, stick to normal white stuff. Works a whole lot better.

HOLY SMOKE BATMAN!
On the bus back from college, aguy from Critical Thinking comes up to me and says 'I dunno if I've said this before but if your name was Adam it'd be better.', referring to Adam West.
I'm sorry, I do not want to have the same name as the Camp Crusader from the 60's thank you very much.

Metal
I'm contemplating getting my ear pierced/stretched, since my parents won't let me get my lip done. Stoopid parents -.-
Skittles, Pocky & Love Hearts
Guh.
3 hours of the same lesson isn't nice. Even if I did get a break or two.
So the first break came, and I took the opportunity to go and buy a pack of Sour Crazy Skittles (5 E-numbers) and a bottle of Powerade (College shop doesn't have the blue one!) to try and keep my energy up. I didn't die of boredom so I guess it worked. Second break I just went for a wander and returned to the lesson.
Lesson over, I went to meet Korey so we could undertake our Monday Morning Ritual of walking into Town, which was considerably dryer than our recent Friday Afternoon Ritual.
Mosying on down to Town, we shared some delightful Pocky and started talking about how Seaside chippy chips are SO much better than their inland counterparts.
On the way into town, I pulled out a pack of GIANT (apparently) Love Hearts and offered one to her. Cheesy it may seem, but that's how we got together- a Love Heart. But I don't care.
We got to Fleming Way, and had to part. Since I only had 2 sticks of Pocky left, I gave Korey them as well as the 100% official Japanese box.
I got home, did my paper round, had lunch, went back to college for 3 hours of Media Studies (cue more Skittles and Powerade) where nothing particularly interesting happened and came home.
That was my candy-filled day, and I wouldn't be surprised if tomorrow consisted of more Skittles.

Fuck it.
I can't do 365 different 'A Day in the life of...' 'cos my imagination just stinks. And plus, when I really get the hang of this 'blogging', I'd probably do more than one blog a day.
I would change the name of the actual blog, but I can't work out how.

A Money grabbing whore.
It's always the way- you're trying to save for something and your one job pays you less and less with each week. ¬_¬

A Cosplayer
Spent the day in Telford today. I went with two other friends for the Movie Comic Media Convention, which included going in Cosplay.Literally "Costume Play." Dressing up and pretending to be a fictional character (usually a sci-fi, comic book, or anime character).
There are anime cosplay conventions around the world.
There are anime cosplay conventions around the world.
And my god is it fun! You literally leave reality and step into a realm where everyone is pretty much the same as you- costumed freaks. You have varying degrees of dedication- those who found the easiest outfit to cosplay (e.g Me) and then you got the die-hard fans. I'm talking about Kingdom Hearts fans who make their own Keyblades, Final Fantasy fans with their own Gunblades. It is quite a spectacular sight to behold.
But it's not all anime. I saw a few Spidermen (admittedly they were small kids with their parents), encountered K-9, found Waldo/Wally (I shit you not) , heck, there was even Jedi running around! I tried to challenge a green lightsabred Jedi with an empty Lilt bottle but I kinda lost (i.e He just looked at me.).
I got a t-shirt! It's reminiscent of the early 3 adverts with the violent Pandas in that it displays one panda with a bite out of it's head and another with an evil face... Oh, and I bought 2 boxes of what must be THE best sweet food on the planet. I'm talking about Pocky. It's like a breadstick-type thing mostly coated in chocolate/flavoured yoghurt. The chocolate one is the best though.
So if you don't mind, I will now go an pig out on Pocky. I'll see you all when I'm 2 stone heavier.
