Tell me that it's better when you're all
alone, tell me that your body doesn't miss my touch, tell me that my lovin'
didn't mean that much...
The title for today’s blog really has no
relevance to anything, just some Aerosmith song that sounded quite good
so I thought hey, why not use it as the title?
Well I spent about an hour waiting at the dentist for the guy to say,
"looks fine to me", what a waste of time that was. I was especially
annoyed though as I missed the RE party. The dentist’s assistant
didn't seem too impressed when I quipped, "what’s the delay?
Even the trains aren't this slow" admittedly this wasn't actually
fun but I cracked up when she slammed the door after her; I think I might
have annoyed her. Anyway, the fire bell went off about 10 minutes into
the "party" so eating of cakes and the watching of Aladdin was
interrupted. And miss Mckemeys attempts to ignore the fire bell were ruined
by mr Lanigan ridiculous idea that it could actually be a real fire. These
downers though were immediately quelled when I was told that my cakes
were very nice by one of my fellow class members. I can unashamedly say
that that made my day, which just shows how sad my life is I guess. Another
good thing about today though was that I found out about a cool new band
called Billy Talent, I think I'll have to be buying their album quite
soon.
So what does tomorrow hold? Well besides the obviously boring lessons
maybe we will go into town. Jordan the copycat wants to get a camera phone
like me and so does Gavin. When did I become the trendsetter? This seems
a bit disturbing to me but no more disturbing than all the posters of
power that were around the school. Well till the next log, whether that’s
tomorrow or some time in the not so distant future, dan.

Cake heaven
I've just finished making the cakes for our party in
RE tomorrow, I'm quite upset at the moment though as I can only stay at
the party for 15 minutes because I'm going to the dentist to have endless
amounts of fun, knowing my dentist the americans will probably pull out
of Iraq before I'm finished there. On to the subject of Iraq those of
you who buy the 'News of the screws' among other tabloid publications
will probably have noticed that some american was beheaded by members
of Al-Qaeda. Without meaning to sound too harsh what did he expect? You
enter the country of your sworn enemy who has a Jihad against your country,
on top of this you have murdered countless thousands of his fellow citizens
most of the civilians and then you torture more innocent civilians. He
kinda had it coming I think. The americans need to take a step back from
the situation in Iraq and realise that not only do the Arabs hate them
so does a large proportion of the developed world. Spain has already pulled
troops out of the war zone and how long will it be before more countries
do the same? If you want my view any american in Iraq should expect to
be shot and more import. For the same reasons that that man was beheaded
the americans need to realise that when the Iraqis triumph and they will,
they can all expect the same fate.
Anyway to less serious matters. I decided to break my decision not to
attend the 6th form assemblies, due to them being headed by the two most
incompetent and annoying people ever i.e. Britton and Mitchell and yes
I am being racist and what was I greeted by? Someone has been laying whippy's
on the 6th form toilet floor. Gavin aka Brian quickly pointed out who
it was, with his song: "Robert Power laid a whippy on the floor in
the 6th form toilet". Maybe someone should tell the 6th form 'directors'
about it or maybe they are too busy slurping on they milkshakes and chomping
on their big macs. Anyway I've decided not be so harsh to ol' Rob tomorrow
because it's his birthday, though me and Gavin are going into school early
to put about 20 posters wishing him happy birthday, though they are slightly
different than conventional designs. Look out for a picture of the birthday
boy in the photo gallery soon.
I'd like to take this opportunity to announce the re-publication of the
Bigger Issue, expect the new edition to be out in the next few weeks and
to address important issues as who did lay the whippy on the toilet floor
and how it could have been easily prevented if someone had lent our 'directors'
a brain cell.
Well before I finish today’s log I just want to tell everyone about
two wicked new albums that are coming out soon. Morrissey’s first
album for years after his last two rubbish ones seems to be great, can
it compete with Vauxhall and I though? With lyrics like; "in america,
it brought you the hamburger, well american you know where you can stuff
your hamburger" I guess it can't fail to be his best to date, but
I guess we will just have to wait and see. And then there is the Velvet
revolver debut album which has almost the exact same line up as Guns 'n'
roses but without that crazy W Axl Rose Guy. So stop buying Funeral For
A Freakin Friend and LostProphets etc and buy some decent rock music not
some imitation emo/nu-metal junk. |

The log continues
So... it was either revision or a new entry so it wasn't
really that hard a choice. I just got back from a "cruise" in
our new car which by the way is a Saab aero 9 something or other and it's
quite impressive especially the built in boombox. Though I was quite disappointed
by the leather seats it came with, they seem to me to be an un-needed
extravagance, which has resulted in the death of countless numbers of
cows. Anyway I was quite annoyed that I missed neighbours, I was too engrossed
in the intricate plot of star trek: voyager and before I knew what the
time was on came stargate:SG1 and there was my whole evening gone. This
terrible sequence of events is why I am going on an eating binge, starting
with dairy free ice cream, which is surprisingly nice. I'm also not too
sure how long this log will continue for as my laptop started smoking
before which was slightly worrying as I’ve only had it about a month,
I guess it might have got damaged when it fell off the back of that lorry.
Shock; AC/DC aren't american, now this means that I can buy their music
without funding the american war machine, which is a huge relief to my
conscience. And before you mention the converse's I only bought them because
I respect the cows more than I do those dirty americans. Before I go I
better just say that you should all visit http://www.ascension-island.gov.ac/
this site "rocks" and well yeh check out the webcam it's
rad.
16:30
Well today started with me oversleeping
by about an hour, well I say oversleep but I really just couldn’t
be bothered to get out of bed so I just kept hitting the snooze button
until I got annoyed and turned it off. Then after an exciting 20 minutes
in the common room the day’s fun really began. For those of you
that didn’t notice that was sarcasm, yes maybe it is the lowest
from of wit but it's also the easiest. Though good old Mr Crooks always
does his best to make us laugh even if his life is made hell by that Webster
woman and how she constantly sends the spackos into his room. Crooks also
informed me that the school isn’t building a planetarium its building
a "spacko learning experience". Though these were my words not
his, I wouldn't want a certain member of the schools senior management
to threaten legal action would I?
Well as second lesson got cancelled Rob, Jordan and myself decided to
go down the shops, via my house so I could change my shoes, as they had
somehow got very wet. Once at the shop the inevitable happened and Jordan
got me to buy him a newspaper, which was the Sun, apparently the dear
Deirdre page is good. Back at school and an essay awaits, the Just War
Theory was just what I needed on a Tuesday afternoon and lo and behold
I don't think I did too well in it. The good, or bad news though is that
somehow Miss Mckememy seems to have been persuaded that instead if writing
another essay on Thursday she actually said we could have a party. Well
it all sounds good to me, except it seems that I have to make cakes now
which I wont actually be able to eat. I can imagine it now...why aren't
you eating the cakes? I washed my hands honest.
But hey it could be worse I guess. Then for some strange reason I felt
ill and went home, it's such a shame that this sudden bout of nausea coincided
with Lines History lesson, which without doubt must be the most boring
lesson ever. Anyway I'm at home now waiting for Neighbours to start so
I can escape my suburban nightmare into the lives of some crazy Australian
dudes.
Question: Why is there a siren noise in my house? |

The first in a long line of logs...hopefully
So my first log see's me sitting in the ever so nice
suburb of Wroughton lookin out of my window, wondering what life is all
about. I do this quite often but i never seem to come up with the answers.
Though despite what some people would have me believe I'm quite sure that
the aim of my life isn't to go to university. Well, my first exam comes
up in less than a week and i couldn't be bothered to go to more than one
lesson today. I dont see the point anymore, History looks like an A and
Geography looks like a B if i actually do some revision but Philosophy
and Media look like lost causes to me. I'm wondering if i would be able
to do 2 A-levels next year or would that damage the schools results too
much? Anyway enough boring stuff, I wanna talk about Shaun of the Dead,
no not another lame British movie or another bad zombie rip-off. This
was a genuinely good British made film free from the manipualtion of those
goddamn americans.Sex is like a gun, you aim, you shoot, you run, an interesting
interlude from aerosmith there, but this sounds quite true to me. Well
back to the film, basically we have the not so archetypal hero Shaun who
after getting dumped by his girlfriend wakes to realise half of the population
have turned into zombies. Cue lots of amusing Zombie bashing and the unending
quest to reach the local pub the winchester.
So if you aint seen this film i say get down the cinema now and see it
before it's replaced by some american bullshit.
Hopefully more than one person will read this and as long as they do I'll
keep on writing it. So long, dan. |
