Ahhh the wonders of computer breakage..
My hard drive is bust.. So I am getting a new wonderful 40 Gb one, and While I am at it I am getting... 256 mb of ram. Yay! faster for me.
But I can't use my computer till monday. Which sucks.
Still
World Aids day tomorrow, something about only posting stuff about aids to my website in honour of this. I will look into it
Oh I hate computers
This week I have mostly
eaten curry
had computer problems
had problems with friends (not nessecarily me with them, just they have had problems that they have told me about)
And gotten frustrated at microsoft
seems normal
So hands up who hates Windows? "ohhh me me me, over here". Most annoying piece of software ever. After saying how great internet explorer is, and praising how amazing the new version of MSN messenger is... windows decides that enough is enough and it must stop working. Now. You see the thing about windows... and this is the thing is that every so often it likes for no reason to stop working. Today it refuses to let me access the internet. Now you see this thingy here is that I use the wonders of a cable modem. It goes through an ethernet card down a cable to me. and when it gets to me I get info. Now the modem is fine. you see it works here on my dads computer. Also the cable is fine... It works I get lights telling me I have connected, The card also is fine, I can see lights as well. Nothing is wrong. I have not altered any settings. So why does it fail? Microsoft plan to make me upgrade is my guess. And it sure is working. I want a copy of XP now. So Bill Gates to make up all the problems you have caused. Give me one. And charge the rest of the world $15 for a copy so we can all go home happy. The end.
Now to go fiddle with my computer and install a new sound card I found in a box that looks nice. YAY!
Ah the joys of planning a curry. It is actually quite enjoyable. Woohoo curry tomorrow. with all my friends. Still have to invite lots of people. but a curry tomorrow none the less... Hooray for curries and all the englishness that they stand for. Aparently actually curries aren't the favourite english dish. It's just only students are polled. Students ruinging the world in more way than one. seeeeeeeeee. Ah well
CURRY
EVERYONE WHO LIVES NEAR BY. (that I know and stuff)
Curry at the Gate Way to Goa (16 (I think) st. Helens road), at 7:30, talk to me to know more.
COME AND EAT
Oh why I am not tired? It is early and I should be tired but I am not. I wonder why? Tired tired tired. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I am still ill. Therefore I am going to go to bed. So I can be up nice and early for tomorrow. Yay, SCHOOL! oh the joy of it all
I am still ill, and not only I am ill but all my friends are deserting me online. First Caff comes on, keeps me entertained for about 5 minutes then leaves suddenly, then mike comes on line and stays on for about 2 minutes. Leaving only Seb who is discussing the ramones and bass techinques. And tuning strings to high.
Ohh my head... it hurts so very much
Last night I had the most disturbing dream ever.
Ohhhhh my neck hurts. I think I will stop writing and go to bed. mayhaps
I am ill. I need to go back to bed.
I had a dream
I am copying this of the back of a letter to me from American Express
I've been 18 for what? 4 days now? So anyway today I get this amazing present in the post (see a bit later) and also my first offer for a credit card! Yay! and the best part? It's a credit specially designed and used to pay off existing credit cards. Thank you American Express for you insight into credit cards. If only I had massive amounts of debt aye? |
But yeah my present from my dear buddy Helen in London. Guess what she got me? Go on guess. then Click HOW amazing a present is that. Wow all my friends have got me amazing presents so if like some people *COUGH*
you haven't got me one yet... well get me whatever. tehehehehehe.
Had a meeting. planned a 70's disco. Gonna get myself arrested
In my list of things that suck... this site has moved up above school toilets...
I was told there was a special Eastenders episode on tonight about christening. I was told that it was on tv at 7:00, so I thought, well I will check, I did and came up with this page..
Okay so I can't find it as the time has passed but it basically said. Eastenders 7:30.
So I go down at 7:30 to find some junk on tv about stuff. And waste an hour watching junk. And thinking of something relevant to say, but forgetting it, although I seem to remember it was about how a program was about something yet had nothing of that something in it. It seemed kinda dum and stupid at the time.
Oh yeah and some program on itv2 about hair cuts
Oooh LONDON ON THE 20th Of DECEMBER. YAY gonna see my mate and delirious and maybe Noel Gallagher
and I have missed the repeat of Eastenders on BBC Choice. Bummer
Man that post didnArrrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Why must going out on a Friday night be so much of a problem. Okay I am going to comdonkinininkwin park at 7:30 ish. As far as I am aware Park's are public places. Whoever turns up turns up. I will not discuss this anymore. unless absolutely everyone going out says they are going somewhere else I will go to the park. The end.
Apparently everyone wants to go to beach. But still stands
EVERYONE
Right as Friday is my birthday night I am going to say what is going to happen an over rule any other plans.
EVERYONE IS GOING TO THE PARK.... unless everyone prefers the beach. IN WHICH CASE EVERYONE GOES THERE
But either way we do not split up regardless of anything. Or it will suck.
Your are all coming out together to my birthday curry on tuesday so you may as well get used to it now.
END
Messenger is still playing up.
I have some physics test soon
I have no thoughts at all. Grr I really need some of these soon. Like now would be nice.
Ah nevermind
I am listening to Pearl Jam, and Vs. I am not proud of this. But still.
My youth just came by and gave me a lovely book and a CD. Wow I love birthdays. how cool are they. Hooray
Messenger is playing
So anyway as you may have gathered it is my birthday. HOORAY. I am 18 even more hooray. which is nice and good. I have lots of presents which I am thankful for including Money (website and a distortion pedal coming my way), a Shiney new phone (which is lovely), A lovely Radiohead tab book (thank you Jaclyn and Carolyn) and A really cool thingy of Jelly tots (mmmm sugary) from my Friend Caff. Plus I am expecting more presents in mail and so on. Amazingly brilliant. Seriously they are. Although my Curry has been postponed I am still happy in my birthday mood. Groovery. Plus I just poured loads of left over sugar from my big jelly tots tube down my mouth. Mmmmm jelly tots.
Oh. If anyone wants to know. I am not having a curry tomorrow. It will probably be on Tuesday or something. And if 40 people are coming I am not making my dear parents pay for them all. But I still don't know where or what time. I'll e-mail and ring.
Oh I have been away for a bit haven't I? well no actually not really, only about 30 hours or something. Oh well.
I'm 18 tomorrow yay!
So I was in Coventry to see my friend get baptised. Which was cool. After a car journey with only minimal wrong turnings and illegal u-turns. (okay so it was funny but still) we got to his house. Where we made fat wrestlers, played on his lovely guitars and stuff and had Square pizzas. How bizzarre. Then he got baptised the next day which was great. and then we went home. Which we did not do any illegal u-turns on. just saw loads of dead animals. And pete had babies hahaahahha. (Pete is a mouse previously thought to be a bloke).
and here i am now
18 tomorrow WOOHOO
I am so very tired but I must tell you all,
Delirious are the greatest live band everrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Seriously they Rawk. Amazing. I went crowd surfing and stole a set list and asked if I could have one of their delay pedals. Which they almost even said yes too. And it was fun. Great. I got a signed set list. Amazing. It has Martin Smith writing all over it. Cool
I am in Coventry tomorrow which is by now today
I love Hannah she came to Delirious with me and put up with me yap on the way home
This mirror makes me look ugly. HHHAHAHHHHAHHAHHAHAHAHHHAHHAA. So true.
I Am 18 soon
I had some nice ideas for my new website. Fun. Including Scanned pics of all the set lists I have nicked. (Okay so I think I only have 4 but still) Set lists rawk.
Bed now
Delirious? WOOOOHOOOO. AMAZING
For one moment the post below went horribly wrong. Fixed it.
amazing. I found out how to use my ntlworld.com address as a passport for MSN. it works really well. Thank you miss. Christine Ranson. So if you have any of my old hotmail addies then delete them.. I need them not. I will delete them as soon as I know how. Grrr. Hotmail sucks. huzzah for ntlworld. Messenger rocks though
Right we are then... I watched Bill and Ted last night and it was truly EXCELLENT. Seriously now it was. Okay so it was a bit random but apart from that is was truly great. Anyway random is good, at certain random intervals. Maybe. WOOOHOOO
Delirious? tomorrow, should be good. Rock and Roll man is here to stay. Crowd surfing all the way.
I may not update this site much soon as I am away for a bit tomorrow and then I go to Coventry and then I am back for Monday. My birthday. AMAZING. Well it should be really really good. AHhh to be 18. Oh yes yes yes.
I have just realised that I am really thinking about what I am typing I am sort of on auto pilot and any second I expect a Messenger window to pop open and ruin my amazing focus on this. Any second now someone will speak to me. Any second...
...
...
...
I have no friends. Ah well. 18 soon
AH HA Some one is speaking to me. Amazing.
Oh Ellie if you read this I will see you tomorrow, or attempt to as I crowd surf my way to freedom.
Hmm train of thought slowly being de-railed by messenger convos. Non school uniform tomorrow. I will not be wearing a skirt over my trousers. As Well. I can't get one. heheheheehe. Still...
I saw Romeo and Juliet as done by the local rival school. I saw my friend Hannah in it. I saw some other people there who I know. That's about it really. I can't think of much else to write tonight as I am tired and it brings my little brain down. In a clunky way. Grrr
Decided Led Zepplin are good. Not as good as Radiohead but still. Good.
OOoooh also today I wrote a poem in philosophy. You see we had to describe a waterfall in poetry and in scientfic terms. My science one was boring but my poetry one was truly great.
Water Falls |

Yeah so anyway parents evening went well. Apparently my parents met Jaclyn's mum. Which is always nice. And I had a nice meeting. I am sure I will add more to this post later when I think of something to write.
Decided I should add to this post as it does look short and all alone as I have just been to my website to look for some html code that I could not remember... It was simple yet unamusing. I have realised that I must nearly be at 2000 people, hang on...
1999 visitors. I wonder if my site will go down when it gets too 2000? I wonder...
Hmmm www.guitartabs.cc sucks... it has one white stripes song, and a pitiful amount of strokes stuff. Use www.britpoptabs.com except when like to day it times out constantly. Grrrr
Ahh the joys that is parent's evening.
Amazingly finished. Brilliant finished my essay. What a joyous occasion this is. Okay so it is barely 4 pages long and I feel like I am missing something but it does have the best conclusion of any essay I have ever written. At one point it including the phrase. "this is a stupid argument, if phsychology can't explain it then it is doing something wrong" but I changed it for the more accurate and more polite "However this is a flawed argument. Religious conversions should be able to be explained at least partially by psychology, if religious conversions could not be explained psychologically then psychologist would either not be doing their job properly or they would be doing it wrong." which is longer as well which always helped.
I would also today like to thank God for answering prayer. As on Saturday I asked if he would help me get through the school year and I would be happy. And so far it works. Today I had a test postponed which I really needed postponing as it was hard and I don't quite understand it all, and also a lesson cancelled. I finished my essay and this means that I only have a psychology test to do which isn't that hard as I have already been told the questions (the teacher told us okay). So that is good, and or great. So I will now go to bed content or something. Well not quite content, almost so, apart from some random messenger conversations, which actually where in a strange way encouraging but still not the sort of thing that causes contentment. Ah well.
Also apparently I only need something like 50 more hits to reach 2000, so if someone wants to visit my site a lot. Feel Free.
I have an essay to do, I will probably write more later sometime. Maybe. I dunno.
Ahh Shaggy... and Craig David... Two men who sing songs of love and emotion and how men should respect women and treat them like people. Yeah. Grrr. Me and my good friend Mike talked about them on Saturday morning... Basically we feel that their song lyrics are EVIL. Basically if you do not know, Mr. Shaggy likes to sing pop songs about how he loves to sleep around, and cheat on girls and then deny it to their faces. Except for occasionally he likes to sing about how he loves only one girl and she's his angel and then goes on to sing about the joys of being rich and being able to get as many girls as he wants. Mr. Craig David, sings more subtley about how he likes to pick up girls in a day or two then spends the rest of the week... yeah. And about how going behind your parents back is good for you, little children, and how problems are their to be walked away from and ignored. Rock on. And the worst part is they target little children with their music, people just growing up and discovering exactly who they are and they choose to fill their minds with that sort of junk. Shame on them. Tut tut tut.
I have a headache
Today was a day of many things... leading to an action packed saturday of fun and frolics. Or something. I was round my friends Jaclyn's and Carolyn's house very early this morning with lots of other people supposing to eat pizza instead of them all going to the wonder that is Escape. However we just watched tv as Domino's said that their was an hour and a half wait and then said "although by that time we'll be shut" (okay so that is not an exact quote more a general rememberance). Then today I went to town spent ages with Mike and Jaclyn and Chantal looking for a parka or a duffel coat and only finding one. Then after I had problems with my account... (cheques need to clear) I managed to get my coat. Then after I went shopping some more with my friend Caff only to find a shop with a rack of parkas and another of duffel coats. Ah well.
Still the coat does rock
Mental note, remember Shaggy
wow netscape sucks. Using the brand spanking new one and although everything works the scroll bars are no longer pretty colours any more. they look wrong. Which is not good. And it refuses to intergrate my stylesheets properly. I really don't like saying this but GO microsoft. I suppose I could use netscape.. but then again I could use linux. ah well
Hmmmm what do i do now? oh yeah right pointless stuff on my site... like I want a parka/duffel coat... all donations greatly received towards this fund. I have to go shopping for one tomorrow but my shopping comrade mike has to go jam instead... So I may have to go with Caff if she still seems vaguely interested in coming... If not I will have to go alone and be boring and end up not getting anything as I will be too scared.
Also I only need 116 more hits to make it too the magic number of 2000 hits before my birthday... that will be good.
I am trying to persuade my drunk friends to send me a photo of them drunk over MSN but they will not. The fools.
Also I am installing netscape 6.1 to see how that works with my site, and if it is any better or worse. Let us find out
yeah... my site may be experiencing technical difficulties at the moment due to me taking lots of stuff of and can't checking it till I clear my cache. Which take some fiddling and a reboot, and even then I can't be sure... so if you haven't been to this site for a while it'll work great... however if you go regular it will not work great.. for a bit.. it'll refresh proper soon enough.. hopefully.
right fiddled with my website in amazing but un-noticable ways. it looks better promise. I hope so anyway
Realised that after Kate and Caff's random multiple postings of hilarity today I only need 5 more postings to get too 300, and as I am most likely getting a website for my 18th b-daythen that will be good I will get a proper guestbook, with a proper enabled cgi bin thingy if that means anything to anyone. It also means I get a nice new weblog as well which should rock immensely... amazing... Will mean that the old guestbook will only exist as an archive and i may have to reset my counter but still. I will aim to get 2000 hits on this before my new site kicks in
okay so today my friends Kate and Caff wrote all over my guestbook repeatedly... it was quite humourous. however they did not think this and where very apologetic and found me after my lesson and gave me a hug and said sorry. Which was nice especially just after they had left me loads of messages on my guestbook. Okay so some of them where a bit mean... but still funny... heheheheheh
Okay going out now... probably anyway...
I dunno actually.
hahahahaha.. everything is solved. I like websites. Hooray.. you gotta have faith and so on
later on I wrote somemore about some stuff.. basically... I have more proof that dating is evil... I like being friends... Hooray for friends... Man I need some more friends... and a duffel coat/parka/skirt heheheee\
I keep on adding to this post... I have realised not only am I stupid but I really should trust in God more to sort stuff out... things turn out better that way... Amazingly so...
Hmmm today I have realised what an idiot i am... complete and utter fool. Selfish too. Grrr... Now I have to apologise to someone for me being an idiot. Which is fair enough i suppose... seeing as I have been very evil to them.
Plus school computers suck...
Why am I so stupid? grr it plurplexs me that even though I know almost exactly what I should be doing instead I go out and do exactly the opposite, in the stupidness of me. I mean, come on... and not only do I know what I should do but I have told other people I should do this. Plus being stupid ruins everything... I do the wrong thing and then even the wrong thing becomes much worse because the wrong thing would only have worked if I did the right thing. Am I dumb or what? Oh well. I shall go do something about it
anyone know where I can get a parka coat, or a duffel coat, or possibly a indie girl flowery skirt, (just above knee length to compliment a pair of trousers)
wow so anyway.. what happened today? well lots of cancelled lessons, going round people's houses. discussion of pedals, discussion of walking place, life in the ghetto and adventure play ground... and then all of a sudden BONFIRE night. Hooray... So I went with my friend Jon to St. Pauls to watch fireworks go bang, and go bang they did. in a mildy disappointing way, and they banged till all the explosions where over, then we went and crashed (okay so we where invited) to a friends firework thing and set some more fireworks off, only slightly dangerously. With names like "mildly disappointing spark" and "it could be a suprise if you have never seen a firework before" and "not really worth your money..." okay so maybe they had other names really but still. then we went home, beeping at people we knew as we went.. Huzzah for firework night..
No more dreams, except for some hazy recollection of mixing beans and rice crispies coz they go well together... Disgusting. Man the Telfon Monkey internet yahoo thing keeps on getting spammed. Repeatedly. Grrrr. Keep Falling. Falling. Keep on Falling. I quite like that song now. It's cool. And stuff. Delirious soon! wooooooooooohooooooooo...
Also today in sunday school class stuff should have gone horribly wrong... I mean, the childrens talk went on a bit, then the bit where they play games in the hall was cancelled coz their was a lunch on and everything had been setup for it... so they where hyperactive, then my amazing cupboard of supplies was locked and I could not get in. Then one of the kids was acting up. and I started to lose my voice. But it still went really really well. Man I should be more grateful. HALLEJUIAH. So anyway... moving swiftly onwards.
I had a good thought in my head earlier but in true me style I forgot it like a sock under the bed or a peice of homework. Nevermind
Caff had a dream the other day...
Mike had a dream
My friend Jaclyn had a dream...
lalallaalllallaa. De dum toooo whoooohooooooo. I am thirsty right now. So thirsty my mind hurts. blog blog blog blog. I think I will get a drink
I have realised that the amount of Junk I am getting in e-mails is up to 50% this is mainly coz of some annoying stupid thing keeping on sending junk through the Teflon Monkey yahoo group e-mail thing. Grrr. also me and my friend Caff discussed the whole "you eat 8 spiders in your life time in your sleep" and decided that it can't be right coz how do they know? Government cover up their somehow I reckon. Well going out soon.
Hooray my guestbook has spend up... Oh no... no no no no no no.... Ahhhhhhhhh..... I have just realised that I did not properly save my last entry the bottom one... ARggghhhhhhhhhhhh I finished it all last night and didn't save it.. and I think I binned the thing and the bins went this morning... oh no wait. Found it. Man so much typing
