Better update as it has been quite a while...
Yay for updates. OK first off: Rhubarb, you asked how that kewl lightening effect was achieved on that Scottish Man movie. WELL: filmed it with the Mac in-built iSight webcam via iMovie. Then added the effects including lightening and thunder clasp after. Who said Macs were crap? Oh yes it was YOU over there! Well... Say that again and there'll be deep deep Vista-in-pink trouble! No idea what that entails (can that word even be used in this context?), but probably either ninja kicking or something of the sort...
Went to England! It was sort of a month ago now, but never mind. So what happened? Er... Something no doubt. Went to the pub with grandparents, Mother, Mr Halstead and Mr Burke. We went to the Eagle and Child. Since it's got a new owner it's mighty ''suckerish'' IE it sucks. B's cod was frazzled and we had to wait for over an hour to be served.
Otherwise nothing much. Basically walking 'round Frenchgate with my ''J''. That security guard Gary AKA ''Franko'' who works there saw us go round like 10 times. There's also an Asian guy. I bet he's really good at Kung Fu!
Other than that? Oh yes, very important! Don't ever set fireworks off unless you want to be surrounded by people demanding where certain ''merchandise'' is. In other words if you hear a firework sounding in the dead of night, it means the drugs have landed. Why the moronic police don't try and trace them and arrest the whole lot is above me, but isn't always oh-so-much-simpler-to-just-pretend-not-to-know?
Also apparently Bawtry is really shady at night...
Anyway England is going to the dogs. Why anyone would move there is a mystery... Oh wait I'M moving there... Oh well who ever knows why I do anything? I don't even know half the time!
It's a month on and we still haven't had a webbie. Since we have VTX as a Iprovider Internet seems to be working better and is supposed to be faster... Oh? Compared to what? Dial-up?! At least it works, only now the bloody airport plays up. Great. So much for technological advances...
It is kind of scary how reliant we are on machines, electricity and Internet. We're so dependant on technology, that if it should ever fail, humanity (apart from some African/South American/Australian tribes) would be doomed! People would go mad from shear boredom and since they spend so much time using machines that their lives would be void. We didn't have Internet for 2 weeks. It wasn't actually that bad, it was just annoying 'cos you would think ''Oh I'll just check it on the Internet... Oh damn we don't have any!'' Dial-up takes bloody ages with its 45.5-46.5 kb/s. How people got anything done before wireless/broadband is a complete and utter mystery.
Anyway... What can be said except ''bloody uni computers''! You just want to do ctrl+alt+del to check CPU and these morons reprogrammed it so you can log out... Great. Must be in ctrl panel somewhere but I'm not looking for it.
Was this the 3rd weirdest post EVER? Yeah thought so. Anyway have fun now, good luck with anything and see you mid-June and you better stay longer!
Oh yeah forgot: got an unconditional offer from Sheffield for Zoology.
Oh YES and what's more: we really need to clean out the chalet as there is some weird growth starting to appear on the floor. Here is the evidence! Er... Well actually there isn't any as I didn't take any photos... So you'll just have to take my word for it!
Gawd I'm ugly today. I'd post a photo, but I'm afraid the Internet may crash... More on the chalet later.
Over and out.

Hey C, excuse me?? At least you're only ugly 1 day of the year - i'm ugly every single day!!
And again i shall say congrats for Sheffield! But personally (not that u'd want to take my advice or anything..) I think it would be more beneficial for u to take translation, using your talents and it'll b easier to get a job than in zoology. My mother should know!
Walked home in the rain today, luckily i had an umbrella, but seriously some ppl's B.O. is to much to take - can't they smell it? I think people don't smell their own 'smell' do they? no matter how strong it is.. reminds me of that scene in Perfume when he's in the cave trying to smell his 'smell' hahah sounds pretty weird but u know the bit. :9
