Ranting on and on...

I haven't posted anything in a while, so here's an update on everything that is up in the life of me, Jamie.

I'm now one of two student governors at Long Road Sixth Form College in Cambridge. Basically, that means I go the governor meetings and put over the student's point's of view to the adults. I also get a vote in certain things in the governor meetings. This is alongside my role as Entertainments representative in the student committee thing.

I did exams in January, as quite a few people did. These were actually very important, and account for varying degrees of my A-levels in Computing, Maths and Physics. I didn't have an electronics exam because I do coursework for it instead. Speaking of that, I accidentally just deleted some pictures I needed for it from my iPhone. Epic fail. Anyway, I get the exam results on Thursday this week. if i decide to retake any of them, I have a 6 day window to do so in.

I have next Tuesday (16th March) off of college. Ha.

OMG Halo Reach multi player trailer!

I got a ping.fm account, which updates my twitter and facebook at the same time which is quite useful.

Oh and something which has really pissed me off.
i bought a pack of stuff earlier from game that had a 3 month card for live, a 1 month sky player thing and a universal media remote for the same price as a 3 month card, so i bought that instead. The 3 month live subscription card was missing from the pack so i tried to return it. They said i had to call Microsoft to get the code. I called them up, first time i got cut off with a bloody phone survey when i was giving the woman my gamertag details to put the 3 months on. Second time i got some mouthy bitch who compared it to buying a packet of potatoes from a grocery shop and basically told me to fuck off. So i hung up. It really annoys me that Microsoft don't have any way of telling what codes go where. For a company with billions of profit each year, they don't do the basics. Maybe they should also allow me to use my Maestro on Xbox Live.

Rant over.
