My head is pounding and I can't lift my right arm! 

 

Bright side:  No visible bruise. Yay.

Jessica, did you take a concussion test? I remember having to answer a bunch of questions to see if my memory would be all fucked or not. I think I had to ride a stationary bike for some reason.

I ran into the floor with my head pica.  It hurt.

 

I'll go to the trainer person in a few hours, I don't think it's a cuncussion, but I don't exactly know what one would feel like anyway.  My shoulder is thing that's really bugging me though, and I don't even remember landing on that.... oh well, I'll find out today what I did.

I forgot, another bright side: We won! Yay. I didn't mention that right? I guess I was happier about the no bruise thing.....

Where are you going to Uni anyway?

 

I was in Bath Spa doing Creative Writing, it is an amazing course and I really needed my 2 A grades to get in there so I was all proud and stuff. But it turns out that when it comes to stuff like accommodation they suck. I was homeless when it started and had to fond a place really quick by myself, that turned out to be a crap hole, I thought it would only be temporary but no matter how much I begged for help the uni just kept fobbing me off. They had me down as a 2nd year and so everything just got fucked. I got really sick from the place I lived in because of all the mould spores and cat poo everywhere, I had to just give up and go home after 2 months cause I couldn't cope.

 

Still, these are the things that happen in my life and no matter hw disappointed and depressed they make me eventually I'll be rewarded in some way. So because my grades are awesome anyway I'm gonna go do something in Cardiff uni. I like it here and now I have a lovely house and live with my dog I just want to stay here. I didn't think I'd get the results to get into cardiff but here they are, so that's what I'm doing in September.

 

No more Bath Spa =( That was all my dream this time last year, my diary was all full of how great it was gonna be. I only cried about it once though and I'm over it now. A bit bitter, but on the whole I'm doing well. They keep bugging me to pay like £600 of tuition fees but I've kicked up a royal stink about it since they screwed me so badly and now it's up for iscussion, that's good 'cause I can't access my bank account right now since Abbey shut it off for outgoing because I dodn't spend enough money during January (I've been having an unlucky few months) so I have to wait until my new account with Lloyds opens before I can pay anything I owe anyone back. It's retarded.

 

I'm gonna go run with my dog on the nature trail now so I can crash for the evening and be all woeful over my run of bad luck.

 

What are you doing now Paul? Still in Brighton? Brighton is super duper hip!

It's cool that you've managed to sort an alternative. Sometimes these things just don't work out like you hope - but I'm glad to hear that you're off to Cardiff instead. I went to Bristol, so I know Bath pretty well. It's a nice place and all, but...Cardiff is much more lively! Much better to be somewhere you're happy and settled so you can focus on studying and having fun.

I'm still in irritatingly trendy Brighton. However, I'm about as hip as a sponge, so I help lower the coolness factor a couple notches.

And congrats on the results!

Ta! I love Cardiff, it's much cooler than what it used to be. Bath is all pubs, pubs everywhere! And posh people up the wazoo too. My cousin is trying to get me to go to this rave in Bristol next Saturday, I'm not keen. Don't you HAVE to take drugs in Bristol nowatimes? It's where Skins is set, that gritty teen drama that we can all relate to :-/

Ive come to the conclusion that i do not understand anything at all. If that makes me an idiot than by god i am an idiot. Now that this revelation has come and gone i can go on with my life with a big fake smile and a pat on the ass. I'll be the one waving to all the other pseudo human beings who struggle desperately to come off intellegent so no one looks down on them.

You and me both.  I was doing laundry this afternoon, and I was washing pretty much everything, so I changed out of a pair of jeans I wanted to wash and found another pair just in the corner of my room to put on.  I wearing those for awhile and they sorta feel a tad weird, so I take them off, and it turns out they're low, boot cut, girls jeans.  I have no clue where these girls jeans came from, or more importantly, why they fit so well.  

 

Emo guys where girls pants, right?  Am I getting my styreotypes mixed up?

Young Kim and I had our school's swimming carnival today. She dressed in her brilliant pirate gear (See: Fashion Parade) and I wore my hippy get-up. She and her friends looked marvellous. Neither of us swam, but I managed to get soaking wet. Oh, the joys of being young and carefree.

Holy brilliant nostalgia blasts. I'm listening to the Gideon Coe show online, and he just played three songs in succession from Smashing Pumpkins live at Reading '95, which I was at. Jesus that was long ago. They were great then. I was a fuggin wreck for the rest of the festival, like all young bucks should be I suppose.

whenever you go to Who's Online there's always a bunch of people "Viewing Shouts" and the only way i've seen to even get to that page is to click on it from the who;s online link. Why's everyone always there? You can't type in any shouts. it's just lists the ones already up. I feel like i'm missing something here.

i've never been on that shouts page, but it's had me viewing shouts many times. I think it just means that I clicked on the text field of the shoutbox or something.

I'm all for finishing work early but why bother chilling out? You're just going to get all excited and get the blood pumping once the game comes on. Just seems like the chilling out time will all go to waste.

I have a strange feeling that Nate if nothing like any person on any sitcom.  That being said, I have no clue when to correctly use "affect" and "effect".  I know the difference of when to use who or whom, but I never caught onto that. 

 

Also, Nader is announcing who his running mate will be for the presidential race tomorrow at noon.  I bet it's no one I'ce ever heard of.

I always tell em apart as "affect" is the one to do with feeling and "effect" is the one to do with cause.

A rule that almost always works is, if it's a verb, it's affect.

I reach over and turn on the light and im standing in my living room with the drawer to my art supplies storage thing on the ground and my left foot in it and a glass full of water spilled across two sketch pads.

 

Is this like some strange when i fall asleep my alter ego takes over thing but my alter ego has a strange obsession with grinding his feet  in piles of chalk, pastels & colored pencils?
