Holidays Continue

The holidays have been continuing, and I haven't really done much. I was stuck inside for 7 days last week because I contracted swine flu, which wasn't the best of experiences, but now I am all better. Been meeting up with friends and stuff mostly. Today however I stayed inside and did nothing, because it rained a lot. I mean, a LOT. Must have been in the inches per minute scale of things. So I stayed in, did some washing up and generally did nothing. Now I am bored and lonely.

Just installed Office 2010 Technical Preview, which I must say looks a lot nicer but apart from that, runs like a bitch. Keeps crashing, which I know is expected but it also erased 2007, which means if i want to run a stable email program... I should either reinstall Thunderbird or point my Firefox to mail.google.com. Which is fine by me. Outlook 2010 is running ok for now but if it starts crashing every 2 mins, I will have to use the internet (gasp).

Deciding what to do now. Work in the morning, going to Wales tomorrow afternoon for a party (w00t drunk time) and will be pretty wasted for Sunday/Monday. Not coming back till Monday I think, so should be fun. Going to Croatia in a week and a halves time (about) (i think). Might just go to bed now after checking my news feeds and using all my energy in Spymaster on Twitter and Mafia Wars in Facebook. How sad my life is.

Boredom

So i have had a pretty boring holiday so far. I have also had to cancel a trip to Newquay because of this bloody swine flu. Can it get any better? Well i hope it does. Most of my friends have gone abroad so I can't be with them. I had a bit of a tiff with one of my other best friends this morning, so i probably won't see her again for a long time, cause I think she is going on holiday on the 15th. Damn. It was only a misunderstanding i hope anyway. Anyway that's done now and she doesn't read my blog anyway. I'm starting to wonder if anyone apart from my good friend Jamie Rumbelow does.

I am bored out of my brain at the moment. I am sitting on my bed on a Saturday when i should have been working this morning and I also wanted to get out of the bloody house. I feel fine now but I have to stay inside because 5 days is recommended for swine flu. Just playing on the xbox. At the moment I am having a bit of chill time, by myself, disconnected from the world, listening to Moby. Skype, MSN, all that turned off on my computer. Phones always on but i never get anything through that unless someone wants something anyway.

Might write something for my tutorial blog later. Although I don't think anybody has actually read it anyway.

Holidays: Part 1

Really what a holiday is all about is hanging about doing what you want. So, that is what I have been doing. Mainly playing xbox, saw a couple of films, meeting with friends.

However at the moment I seem to be in a little bit of a pickle. Something to do with the fact I have a little illness... called Swine Flu. Damn. Can't go out, massive headache, on drugs. Fun stuff.

Anyway, tv watching online and on the tv (duh) ensues at the moment. Torchwood is good :P

Everything After Exams

So, my exams are over. What a time I have had since.

Thursday - my last blog post covered it, but I saw the legend that is
BB King at the NIA in Birmingham. I was shocked to find out when I
came out that Michael Jackson had died of a cardiac arrest.

Friday - incredible night. Had the Parkside Prom at my school to
celebrate the end of exams. Was fantastic. The prom was great, and the
afterparty was better. Got drunk (a first for me) and really enjoyed
myself.

Saturday - well the party continued late into the night/morning. 4am,
I was walking a friend home. 4.30 we got to their house. 6am I
stumbled into my house, and fell asleep on the sofa. 12.30pm, and I
was awoken by my stepbrother, and ferried into town for a bit. Still
fucked from the night before though :P

Sunday - got up, about 1pm, went with my dad to set up a barbecue for
his staff, cause one of the managers had been sacked and it was
supposed to be the announcement. But it got leaked the night before
and all the staff were fucked. Anyway, we had a very fun day, played
football, drank more, ate. Went home about 6, played xbox.

Rest of time - Been organising a trip to Newquay with my stepbrother,
Josh. We did this because the whole family didn't have money to go :(

Will be off on that trip 12th of July until 16th July. Should be
awesome!

Right now, I am sitting in a building site. Why? Cause I am earning
money for this trip. This will pay for my flights. Accommadation will
be sorted by money from working this weekend, and money I have lying
around. Will also be working at the Vaults a lot more, got glass
collecting on Saturday nights and couple of day shifts being manger
(well, close to. Paying bills, sorting backups, cleaning a bit).

Basically action packed holiday for next few weeks. After Newquay, I
should be back in Cambridge. Off to Dbrovnik in Croatia end of July
with my mum and sister. That's all my plans so far for this summer,
I'm sure that will change soon enough.
