2008 - A review

Firstly let me start by saying, congratulations to South Africa for winning the test match in Melbourne, making it the first time Australia have lost at home since 1992..RIP Australian cricket.

So, last day of 2008, wow. Well over the next few minutes, I hope to inform you, the reader, on all the major events of this year concerning me in a false yet some what beleivable philosophy that you happen to be interested.
Well, January, I don't think much happened in January, certainly my journal is almost empty, I wrote FUCK OFF over one page covering two weeks, so we will just assume that January was poor and the year had got of to it's typically shambolic start.
February, again, nothing much happened, same with March...So let's just skip to April, well it was my Birthday...Though that happens every year, err...Oh I got an iPod, which I can safely say has changed my life, mostly for the better.
Around about May/June the cricket season for me got underway, this year being slightly more suuccesful than previous years, no massive injuries and I did acheive my highest score so far, that being a majestic 54.
About this time, I thought I was in love, but that ended with a series of dissapointments.
In May I started Jack Beckett, my novel about a man weirdly simmilar to myself, this has taken over far too many hours this year, yet I love doing it and it's good to break away from Sci-fi novels concerning black holes and the damnation of the human race.
Around about July, I became hugely obsessed with Oasis, I always liked them before, just now started buying Oasis cd's, not quite sure what brought it on, but glad it happened.
July 31st, one of the best day's of my life, saw England V South Africa at Edgbaston. Was a great day out, despite England loosing, seeing my favourite players for real was quite something.
So along came September, a predictably dull start to the year, nothing really happening, there was a rather nasty incident concerning a nutter, but thankfully I cleared that up remarkably well. It was about late September though, that I thought I might be in love with E, however, I decided back then to try and block this out as much as possible, pretend it wasn't happening and move on. This failed...(Thank God).
Mid-October I couldn't really help myself and told her in what ranks quite high in my list of: most terrifying moments of my life. A few weeks later, we started a relationship and I've been unusally happy ever since. Despite the fact I still moan about nearly everything and care about cricket a little too much, I owe it to her for making this year the best since...since...err...since...2000, I dont think in 2000 I really had a care in the world.

Well there you go, that brings us up to the present day, tomorrow I will write out what I want or expect to happen for New Year.
Thank you and goodbye,

Tom,

Bands I paticuarly enjoyed this year: Oasis, Muse, The Corrs,
Cricketers I now hate: Graeme Smith, Mitchell Johnson, Ian Bell (sorry Bell I know you try).
Random tv series I discovered and enjoyed: Survivors, Band of Brothers, IT crowd, Scrubs, Peep Show (best sitcom ever).
Quoations I remember from the year: 'Well Seb...Your just a...A fucking tree,'-Me,
'We can get some fighter jets to fire conkers,' - S,
'No, I'm not out Tom, I'm staying here and there's nothing you can do about it,' - Campbell,
'Tom, that's not a very convincing Badger,' - McHenry.
'The French...Aren't they the ones who love noodles?' - My American chum

Let it FAKE SNOW!!!!!!!!!!

I'm happy. Was really pissed off and depressed this morning, but I've decided to forget about that now.
Earlier I found PREMIER FAKE SNOW SPRAY!!!!!!! Which then led to me and H patrolling around town spraying various things, we wrote LOL on the road, sprayed a couple of trees...Oh and attacked a bench, admitedlly we were a little hyper.
Then got back and made a sketch about Brian and Ted, two Flight Simulator addicts.
But tomorrow afternoon, (well hopefully tomorrow afternoon it might end up being Christmas Eve due to something concerning my Father's work,) I'm going back to Edinburgh, HOORAH!!! Where it might even snow, according to extremly unreliable sources anyway. But I can't wait to see my Grandparents and various good chums.
Other news, me and a couple of others are hopefully going to see Oasis live around July time (can't wait!!!!).
Anyway I must do some work on my book.
I probably won't be able to write anything in this blog until Sunday at the earliest when I get back, so goodbye everyone.

Lastly, Merry Christmas to all,

Tom,

P.S: Oh and E, if I don't speak to you before, hope you have a good Christmas, will miss you.

I'm feeling supersonic, give me gin and tonic,

I never used to like 'Supersonic,' but it's turned out to be one of those songs which has grown on me. Bit like...Chasing cars and just all of Socuting for girl's work.
Today, got an AMAZING pen from E, it changes bloody colour!!!!! And my favourite chocolate Galaxy, finally some decent chocolate, sorry, no offence, but I'm getting a bit sick (literally) of chocolate buttons.
I also went home at a CRAZY time...Well only an hour and twenty behind when I usually go back, but that's enough to shake up my beloved routine and make me feel light headed. Of course there is a reasoning behind this, that being it's the last day of term 2008...Woah, scary stuff.
The holiday's have got of to an unexpectedly exciting start, me and Campbell playing a Cricket 07 match against South Africa...Christ it was tense, went down to the last ball, 2 needed from 1 delivery, then Mother walks across screen blabbering away about something vaguely important!!??!?!?!?! Me and Campbell both remained remarkably calm, just went up to our rooms in complete silence much to the bewilderment of my Mother.
Will the remainder of the holiday's be like this? Well probably not, apart from Scotland, the possibility of seeing E at some point and of course Christmas, the majoirty of my time will be spent in solitude. Mainly writing, revising, dreaming about scoring majestic hundreds for Hampshire etc...
But it is Christmas soon, very soon in fact, I can't tell you how far away it is BECAUSE I HAVEN'T GOT AN ADVENT CALENDAR!!!!
Do I have any plans/goals concerning the working aspect of 2009? Well not really, just want to secure my GCSE'S and if possible a place on the school cricket team.

Time for me to go,
BYE BYE!!!

Tom,

Thursday 18th December 2008...Yeah....I'll admit to not being so great at this title business

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! Have got terrible writer's block, I decided I would aim to finish my book by Christmas a few months back, that's looking extremely unlikely. Not that I need to finish it by Christmas, I have years, would be nice to finish though. It's not that I don't know what to write, it's more how to write it, everything I type seems so shit, this paticular chapter is vital for the whole series and I really want it to work.

Chocolate...So much chocolate, I've eaten loads of the stuff recently, my stomach is beginning to complain, an entire sack of golden coins, two slices of chocolate cake and about a thousand chocolate buttons...All in the past half an hour.
Blimey, last week of term, so a constant stream of videos, what did I get today? The Pianoist and then a Beautiful Life, fine yeah, brilliant films and yes I think everyone should watch them, especially the Pianoist, but it's Christmas for God sake, do I really have to watch Hollocaust films at Christmas?

However, I did get to see E at lunch today which was great and England are playing tonight, so shouldn't complain.........But will, I hate Christmas cards with glitter in them, you open them up and the stuff just falls out everywhere, 'What you doing this Christmas?'...'Well HOOVERING!'

BYE EVERYONE!!!...I say everyone, who reads this?

Tom,

MY BROTHER ATTACKED SOMEONE

As the title reveals, my brother attacked someone.
Moving on, isn't the Bible an odd book? I hate the way it's all full of riddles and just plain nonsense, sorry but Genesis is simply weird, talking bloody snakes and apples of evil...It's ridiculous.
What happened today?....Ok well school was a bit of a drag, apart from ICT, where I discovered DOODLE...A crazy little game where you control a grinning hyper active man with a sword who jumps around various platforms murdering rubber men.
So yes my dear brother punching someone for abusing his perfectly ordinary name (Campbell), I'm not sure if I support him in his decision to punch them though. He could have just found some way to out-wit them, but ah well, been playing Cricket 07 with him for over two hours now. Currently going through one of our getting along with each other really well phases, which will hopefully last out to Christmas.

Urg....Last few days I've been eating so much chocolate, I need to stop this, though I'm not really running any danger of turning fat all of a sudden, if anything I need to eat more.
Christmas holiday's coming up, do I have anything planned? Well I'm going up to Edinburgh to stay with my Grandparents, where I will be able to see some dear old chums and annoy them ever so much with my accent. Must help a traumatized friend who's girlfriend attacked him with a knife quite recently, he wasn't hurt and I think he might have been exagerating it slightly, but still it would only ever happen to him...I hope anyway. Oh Edinburgh, how I miss thee, the 1 o'clock cannon, Portobello beach, Arthur's mount...

GOODBYE EVERYONE!!!!!

Tom,

Who the hell's Mandy?

Ok time for a proper entry.
Tuesday today, quite a good day, well I can't complain, E seemed to like her Christmas present. Though I feel really sorry for her, she's been working damn hard after school and everything over this yearbook thingy and it's not fair at this time of the year.
In other news, yet another conspicary is working against me, we have an advent calender in our tutor, I pick out names every morning, I have never been chosen and by the looks of it never will, despite cosntant resuarances from my tutor, I simply have to go along with the theory S has burnt my name in a fit of rage.

After watching last weeks Survivors I may have developed a very small crush on the character Anya, this weeks episode....Turns out she's a lesbian, how fucking typical. This is simmilar to Claire in Lost, she turned out to be a nutter and then an Australian, why did it take me so long to figure out that accent??????

God...Listening to Barry Manilow, if only the name Mandy was replaced with Emily it would be one of the more perfect to me song's ever. Oh I mentioned her name on the blog...Am I allowed to do that? Wait who am I asking this question to? Christ I'm quite the schizophrenic.

Better go,

Tom,

Sorry, but it's not like this post really has a point, so neither will the title.

MORNING (for those reading in the morning)
Swindon radio came on earlier and they had someone phoning in who lives in Southampton, why? Why does that man listen to Swindon radio?

Bye,

Tom,

Blarg ne farg

Going to make this brief today. Just washed all the crap put of my hair, a pillock decided to pour the contents of a gutter over me 'accidently'.
Been watching videos all day and drawing disturbing images, when I say disturbing images I just mean smiley faces.
Had an AMAZING idea for a book so will finish this up now,

Tom,

P.S: Congratulaions to S who's very recently started a relationship with a complete lunatic, well I think she's mentally insane, but he loves her, so hell, well done and I'm glad your happy S.

I've done some thinking

As the title suggests, I have indeed done some thinking. I've reached only a couple of solid conclusions, I'm a complete nutter and I like cricket just a bit too much.
I'm not a nice person, I'm not someone who I would wish to even know or befriend. I spend half my time moaning, the other half mocking something or other.

I have a girlfriend, but I don't know why, she's fantastic, but me? I have three books about Nazi Germany and the Third Reich for God sake (admitedlly those were birthday presents...I still read them though). I've got a friend who's going through a really crap patch at the moment and in the wake of Christmas it really isn't fair, I try to be there for him, but nothing I say can make any difference, I'm completely powerless and I hate that.
But this isn't just some bizzare confession of a nutter, because I'm thankful, I really am, I'm thankful for E, (should probably give her a new code name because by saying I'm thankful of E...I sorta sound like a bit of a druggy). But yeah, I'm thankful for her, for being so wonderfully brilliant.
I'm thankful for my friends who put up with so many rants about why me losing my Bugs Life pen and how it is most likely the fault of the Dutch. I'm also thankful for my family, who are subjected to me near 24/7, but I'm especially thankful to my dear cat, who does actually put up with me 24/7 and literally knows everything there is to know about me.

Sorry for the random outburst of emotion, but know that I've got that off my chest, I can press on writing about other events and thoughts.
Cricket yes cricket...I'm obsessed but it isn't even the season, well it isn't the season in England, however as nearly every cricket playing nation is in the lower hemisphere, it's the season over there. Which is probably the problem, so many games going on in so many beautiful grounds in lovely hot sunny countries...Excluding India, that place is quite frankly terrifying.

I really feel like I should be doing some more to my book, I've got up to a really cruically exciting bit...Well exciting for me at least. This weekend I'll have a good session.
Anyways, hope everything is good for you and if it isn't, well keep going, the good stuff is really worth waiting for, trust me.

Tom,

P.S: The ghosts on Pacman keep cornering me

A sitcom, drama and who the hell is Amjad Khan??

TODAY IS SUNDAY!!!!...Just thought I'd announce that in caps lock. So what have I been doing this Sunday? The majority of the morning was spent watching a couple of Series five Peep Show episodes and some random stuff from Ashes dvds all from the comfort of my bed. A luxury for me these days, my ps2 decided a few months back that it just wasn't going to have anything to do with dvds.
My brothers however plays them all perfectly...Last night I simply swapped Playstations, cunning I know, no seriously the SIS should employ me. The best bit is, he still hasn't noticed.

The rest of the day was spent writing a radio sitcom with H, it's loosely based on World War Two set in a rather bizzare Cotswold village, quite brilliant....Ooo I just had an idea for a song, might have to write this down.
Oh good lord, fun bouncing Drama has been tottally destroyed, until February I am working alongside two of the most frustratingly annoying girls in the school on a play about child abuse. It is quite ridiculos, we could pick any topic we wanted as long as it was educational to the audience, for some reason they weren't too keen on: Why Communism doesnt work, with me playing Stalin.
I mean why child abuse? 'Because it's deep Tom.'

Pah, this is going to ruin my Friday afternoons now, having to play an abused child until February... Well better look on the bright side, its Christmas soon, there's the brilliant E, cricket might be on in the near future.
Though England have picked some bloke called Amjad Khan....Now I follow the county game intensely, but I have never heard of this mysterious bowler from Kent and on that basis alone I've decided I don't like him.

Tom,

P.S: LOOK AT ALL THE CRAZY CHANGES I'VE MADE...NOW YOU CAN PLAY PACMAN DAMN IT!!!! Psychedelic or what?????

That last entry was pathetic,

That last entry was pathetic, I'm going to write a better one.
Still with a slight problem on what to write, crap is my life really this dull?...I have been playing Flight Simulator 2004 for quite a long time, is my life that sad?
I don't have an advent calendar as well, I'm now too old, pah to that...Here I go with the moaning again,must stop this.
Update on the S situation: he has engaged the doctors in a brutal fight involving foam disk guns, the Black Watch are apparently moving into position.
In the general scheme of things though, life is pretty good, it's just those little things which really get to you in this weather, like my ipod, the advent calender, exams etc... S decided to give out sweets to E today.....Suspicious, I'm watching you S, oh and if you happen to be reading this, so are the Black Watch.
Why do I have a mallet?...Anyway, yeah, Woolworths is going, I never really liked that shop, never saw quite what it's point was, but I'll miss it for the pick n mix.
What this country needs to steer it through these troubled times is........Me.
I would do a brilliant job, I've alerady got this all sussed out, the economy needs a little kick to get it started again, what better way than by building a HUGE tourist attraction? I'm thinking....The Great Wall of Shropshire, obviosuly Shropshire is a tiny county, so this wall will (unlike that wall the Chinese have)be tall rather than long, and when I say tall I mean 6000000 feet.

With a slightly better but more absurd entry,

Tom,

P.S: S...There behind you,

O dear

Ok....I'm finding it hard to take in what I've just heard, S is playing Runescape.

Moving on, I had three exams today, that's just mental! I had no break, little lunch and I had to actually use jedi mind powers to controll my table in the Drama exam.
Other news, my ipod is still broken, I'm going to have to phone Appple tommorow, either them or Childine, maybe both (I'm not taking it well).
Is Benjamin Linus the best Lost character ever????????????? I reckon he must be, just imagine if that man was put in charge of a large military nation, woah!

Well I'll finish this up, as I'm running out of stuff to say as you can probably tell,

Tom,

P.S: The doctors are already at S's house, he's being taken to a sponge room, we can all relax.

A depressing sequence of events

Should I bother filling you in? Got nothing better to do, I watched Lost earlier hoping it would give me answers to life, didn't really work.
I really can't be bothored to go into the gory details, Angry girl has just been stirring up trouble, but now she's going out with Jambon (THANK GOD).
Bugger I feel so ill, I've been shivering nearly all day and my head feels like it might give up, pack its bags and piss off to Alaska. I should probably stop being so negative, but that's just me, I am negative, I'm a grumpy ranting sod, not much is going to change that...Maybe a helicopter, I asked for one of them for Christmas, just imagine what I could do with a helicopter....

Yes anyway, back to reality, new series of Live at the Apollo tonight!!!! And by the looks of the trailer, Michael Mcintyre and Frankie Boyle are both going to be on, can hardly wait.
Urg...Must be something else for me to report on................England flying home from India, because apparently they are now a terroist target!?!?!? Only I want to cause harm to Alastair Cook for God sake.

Bye people,

Tom,

It's happened...

I don't have much time, I might have to start digging a bunker in my garden...Would that be an overreaction? Let me explain,
The past few hours almost every single technological device has broken, I get home, all the lights in my room have strangely broken, my hairdryer lead tries to murder me (trip me up), my computer is acting like a schizophrenic on heroine even to the point where Microsoft Narrator literally decided without my consent to turn itself on and have a merry chat with itself.
My ipod has decided that if I try and increase the volume ever so slightly it won't stand for it and drags it back down to this pathetic level.
And as for the ps2...I'm just now far too terrified to even turn it on.

In other news, England lost the fifth ODI against India, is that even news? Its like reporting I did some breathing today, its sort of a regular event.
There must be something else....Oh yes! Survivors, I rather like that show, its another Lost style thing.
Bunch of 'survivors' having to live out their life and then this weird back story, but its all set in Britain instead of, actually where is Lost set?...Instead of set in Jamaica, and there's an angry Scottish man, which Lost also has come to think of it, but he died then came back to life then travelled through time and space...Perhaps I should start watching something more down to Earth.

For fear I'm blabbing I will leave you now, well I would continue, but my computers making a weird humming sound....

Tom,

P.S: B is going to kill us all with her death note (THERE B YOU HAVE BEEN MENTIONED)

Quantum of something or other

Sorry about the lack of posts, I could say I've had a busy week, but that would be lying and I dont want to lie....might stop me getting a mortgage or something.

So what has happened this week, actually quite a lot, let me fill you in.
Life is good, just to make a change, life is really good, I've just been so happy recently, why is this?
Well of course there's E, E has made my happy, my Zoo has made me happy, actually I'm rather obsessed with my Zoo, a maths exam turned out to be rather easy and just everything seems to be on the up....Except the bloody England cricket team, oh how they frustrate me, but its not their fault, its Yuvraj Singh's...One day, one day I swear I'll hunt him down and pelt him with dough balls in his sleep.
I mean the man has back spasms whilst batting and still scores a bloody hundred with 13 sixes!!!! Next time I bat I want back spasms damn it!!!!

S is doing another weird mood again, he's created a 'Things to do before I die' list, though I'm a bit of a hypocrite as I also have a list with that title. He's asking me for suggestions see and is promising that he'll do anything I say, I'm abusing this slightly....S's latest addition to the list: Graffiti the words 'DISSAPOINTING' on the side of the grand canyon.

Saw the new Bond film earlier today with Seberry, pretty much non stop action, but a good film, undecided if it beats Casino Royale.
Argh!!!!!! Playing an online version of Risk and someone has invaded Alaska, finally this game is starting to get interesting, better go now folks,

Hope your all well....hmmm I don't usually wish people well....well I hope you are anyway and if your not, feel free to join server 7 on Risk 2 online, please dont unite with Rick17 though, he's a backstabbing bastard.

Tom!
P.S: After posing in front of a mirror dressed in a suit with bb gun in hand for about five minutes (ok fine..10) I have come to one conclusion....I am definitely James Bond, no doubt about it.

Ahhhhhhhhhh

Just had one of those days, one of those bloody annoying days. English was a complete and utter mess, me and thingy bassicaly laughing the whole way through it, God that was awful and childish...It's not fair, in Drama I reguarlly play comedy roles and have no problem with laughing, how typical.
Things then went from bad to diabolically crap, in ICT a person who we shall just call Mr lying golf obsessed blob decided for 'a joke' to muck around with my Reality Check database, locking all the damn cells, took me the majority of the lesson to clean up the mess he made.
Didn't see much of E today either, that was crap, oh and my sandwich was covered in stupid seeds! How many times do I have to tell my Mother?? I'M NOT A BIRD.
Arg, I need comforting right now, instead I have to trudge away to a Maths tutoring session, when will Monday end??????

Tom,

New England, irony and instrumentals

Just come out of watching Stephen Fry in America, that man and his brilliant series have compleatly changed my view on that quite remarkable country.
I now want to visist it more so than Australia, some of the scenery in places such as Arizona and New England are just stunning. Of course like every country, there are places I would very much want to avoid, Las Vegas looks like a complete plastic dump and Miami doesn't seem that appealing.

In other news, on Remembrance Sunday I start writing the chapter in my book where world war three is declared...Just a tad ironic. Was looking over photos from my Somme trip a year or so ago, what a bloody awful waste of people's dreams, hopes and futures in general, urg...

On a lighter note, found a great instrumental youtube channel, loads of instrumentals on there all with download links, I recommend the Muse ones. http://uk.youtube.com/user/instrumentalsandmore

Tom!

The sheep have moved....

Feeling much better than yesterday. So its Saturday and what have I been doing?
Saw a friend earlier and his crazy dog who attacked my shoes, the dog that is, not the friend. Other than that not much is happening, I feel like I should be working or maybe even writing my book.
What the hell has happened to Australia? Once the best side in the world now a platoon of idiots, I should be happy, its the Ashes next year after all...It's just so odd, I need more time to adjust.
Been listening to Hoppipolla loads, I dont even know what they're saying, they could be singing about the dangers of microwaves in the hands of the Turkish for all I know, but it doesnt really matter quite frankly.
Wow how did that happen?...The sheep moved from one field to the other without me realising, clearly running out of things to say here, will shut up.

Tom,

Fix you on loop

Hello people, I say people I'm not sure anyone reads this these days.

The last time I was this depressed was when...Possibly when England lost the Ashes 5-0, but that was more anger than depression, ok maybe since when I moved house.
I'm listening to Fix you on loop...Is this a good idea? I dont know, not planning to stop though. Why does everything good which happens only last for an annoyingly short period of time? Oh I should stop moaning, whats the use, I'm just gonna bat on Cricket 07...bat until I die, just keep on batting.

Bye,

Tom,

Lenny the boy who wanted to be a train....What a nutter

Saw this play earlier, it was terrible. I dont know quite why, it just was.
Oh who am I kidding? I cant have a proper rant right now, I have stuff on my mind, and yeah its been little more than a day and already somethings happened, how great am I?...Just dont bother answering that, I'll cry.

Hopefully by tommorow my normal ranting self will be back, I hope so anyway,

Bye,

Tom.

Second day back, stuff happened today.....And it was good, oh except my pencil being burnt that was not good

Ok well lets start with the most dramatic event today, girl that rather long entry was all about a few posts back said 'Yes,' to me today...WOAH...Intense joy and quite a large deal of shock, wish I hadnt yelled 'FUCK!!' in reply, thats hardly poetic.

So yes, wooooaaaahhhh....Rather crazy day. My pencil was burnt in Science, only my spare pencil though which is exactly the same as my non spare pencil...o...damn them.

So what am I doing right now? Pondering the days happenings, listening to the Libertines and considering shooting some Germans on Call of Duty 3...nah I'll spare those Germans today.
Oh how could I forget??? Australia V India final test match in Delhi?? Either there or Mumbai, doesnt really matter the Indians will go ballistic if they wrap up the series, if only Australia had picked Symonds!!!! Wait...why am I supporting Australia? (Tom shakes head in disgust).

Better go I fear I'm blahing,

Tom

First day back....

Wonderwall is finally coming to a close...Now what will iTunes shuffle lob at me?.....Radio - The Corrs, hoorah!
So first day back, it was fine really, good to see people once again. Nothing from Angry Girl except a glare at break, glares are fine I'm used to people glaring at me, she can glare as much as she likes, doesn't harm me in the slightest...Ha I win...In the most minor way possible.

But your just in my head, swimming forever in my head, just swimming forever,oh the Corrs and there lovely lyrics. They should win some sort of award for being just great, maybe like a Nobel prize for goodness...Yeah that would work.
Tom flips his Edward Monkton calendar to November, bit late I know...Ok this is what it says:
We must all DANCE to the MUSIC of our DRUM.
But what if our own drum is BROKEN or we are hearing SOMEONE ELSE'S DRUM by mistake?

Good old Edward Monkton,

Bye people,

Tom,

Stupid iplayer, Scouting for Good Lyrics and the last day......

Last day of half term today...Actually as I type this there remains about four hours before I plan to sleep. Am I ready for tommorow? Sort of, yeah I've done all my homework, oh except this history question...But I'm hoping that will just leave me alone and crawl away somewhere soon.
Might have to employ S's services as a bodyguard to combat the evil work of Angry Girl...Not that S will hit Angry Girl, he's compleatly against that, I'm just planning to use him as a human shield in one hand whilst I fend her away with a pointy stick in the other....Oh yeah, I've got this sussed.
Am I looking forward to tommorow? No, but I'm not dreading it which is they key point here.
Though I am listening to Scouting for Girls which could indicate my mind is not entirely right. Scouting for Girls, what a ridiculous band name, who scouts for girls? Probably guys who can only tell a girl that she's lovely 21 times (yeah I've counted damn it).
I suppose SFG arent that bad, Heartbeats ok, though if someone missed a heartbeat that many times I'm near certain they'd be undergoing cpr about half way through the song.
Tried watching Top Gear on iplayer earlier, nope it just wasnt having any of it, how annoying.
Anyway, this history question involving the damned Weimar Republic and Communists isnt running away as I hoped...Better finish.

Tara,

Tom.

Nintendo and France

Did not get much sleep last night, most of my time was spent reading The Portable Door and pondering such silly questions as the one I am about to give you: the Nintendo Wii, in France do they play on the Nintendo yes...?

I hate Nintendo, there always trying to be so fucking different. The Gamecube, that was just a shitter version of the psone but in a cube shape!!! Oh so now everyone goes and buys one. The Nintendo Ds, just a Gameboy (sexist) with very slightly better graphics and oh look you can poke at the screen with a bloody pen! Wahey I've always wanted to do that...not.
So then you get the Nintendo Wii, at first fine I was taken in by it all...Look I can run round the living room waving a little white thing around and the guy on the screen does the same!!!!! It's just so crap though. All the actions are pre-animated, the graphics are basic to say the least and the controllers are so sensitive its like dealing with a toddler high on sugar demanding more sugar, its hell.

Tom,

The Corrs have changed my life.

Howdey,

Ok firstly England lost....I'm not going to dwell on it because that also entwined with the knowledge of Hamiltons victory in the F1 championship will make me cry.

I've been inspired by the Corrs, possibly one of the best bands on the Earth, I say the Earth I bet other planets have good bands as well....What am I talking about?...Yes anyway, I'm going to venture to Ireland one day, maybe in my gap year.
I'm going to go alone, a companion would be nice, but I doubt nobody will be mad enough to go with me. I will walk from my home in the Cotswolds to the middle of Ireland, just for the hell of it, sleeping under the stars, finding my own food. It will be a proper adventure, I'll have to make a sturdy vessel to cross the Irish sea but other than that I see no problem....ignoring the fact I will be entering the Irish Republic illegally....they wont mind, the Swiss didnt after all.

Right, what should I talk about now? Should I stop talking? Should I stop talking to my computer...yes definitely. Should really be doing this English work, its staring at me (in a bad way).

Love life, has that changed at all?...Ha ha as if. Nothings changed, apart from a desire to buy lots of armour and a want for someone to write me a book on how to get over someone, WOAH...That was close, I closed the window thought FUCK ITS ALL GONE...this thing saved it, thank you whoever designed this site!

This is the thing though, the world needs single and lonely people. The male to female ratio on Earth isnt equal after all, we cant all have someone...Now is that such a bad thing? Well yes its a bit of a loss, but better than being dead say...I think anyway.

Better shut up now,
Tara
Tom

Blarg

I'm angry.

That's all I have to say,

Goodbye people,

A very angry Tom

20 million US dollars, near Earth asteroids and other stuff...

Ok it's almost here and I am finding it difficult to keep calm.
For those of you who have no idea what the hell I'm talking about, I'll briefly explain. Bassicaly, this is a cricket game on soon but not just a cricket game, the most valubale match EVER MCEVER.... It's a twenty20 game, which is the shortest form of the game possible, lasts about 100 minutes (so just longer than a football game)and is therefore the most exciting. Here is the crazy bit, thanks to some American nutter called Allen the winning team takes home 20 million dollars!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It starts in under five hours and althought England are the favourites I cant help feeling extremely nervous. For example just imagine if it comes to the last ball, 2 runs needed for victory and then someone like Ian Bell goes and drops it (no offence Bell...but come on fielding isnt your strong point is it?)And how will Harmison cope opening the bowling? This is the most hyped up match since the Ashes a couple of years ago and in that game Harmison bowled the widest delivery ever recorded...Oh this is not looking good.

In other news, I lost the pen I found the other day and I've discovered that were all doomed, we've just escaped the evil work of Cern and now I learn that an asteroid entitled: 99942 Apophis is going to slam into either us or the moon in 2029, bloody hell.

I'll be 36 by then and at that point in my life I doubt I'll have done all the stuff I plan to do, like row across the atlantic or start a politcal revolution based in Shropshire.

Ah well, tara people,

Youtube, halloween and the world.

I made a Youtube video today, its bloody fantastic. Bassicaly involved me getting other peoples clips, downloading them to a file type Movie Maker didn't have a panic attack at and then messing them up slightly, the end result...a masterpeice. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=YVTeu0_dqKo

What else have I been doing today?...Actually not much, thankfully month of the year girl cancelled meeting with me, thats good trust me. However that made way to me thinking about Angry girl more. I think I might have made a mistake saying no, a mistake I may well have to rectify, but I'm not sure...hmmmmm...Yes anyway I crushed those thoughts with a brilliant Peep Show episode which I might have to do again, something from series 3 I think.......Halloween today, oh how fucking fun.

I have a plan though, same sort of thing I did last year, except this time I have a bb gun not a foam disk gun. See what I did last year is I hid in the shed and would open fire if anyone dared try get near my door...Slight problem, nobody went to the back door...Hmmm...I dont see that problem being suddenly resolved this year, might lob a pumpkin at some kids..haha...I'm not mad, just hate halloween.

Tara people,

Tom

Why am I so bloody happy?

Why am I so bloody happy?...You must understand this isnt normal, I'm not a happy person, I have no obvious reason to be happy, though I have never been great at seeing the obvious.

It might be because I have recently got hold of some money, very rare for me. I did admitedly go rather crazy with it, bought loads of clothes, music and peep show episodes....I dont need them, well I need clothes, but I already have some, these ones are really cool though.

I might be feeling better because angry girl has not talked to me for a while. Though I wait anxiously on MSN for when she will appear, where upon she will angrily rip me apart with her limited yet damaging vocabulary.
Angry girl 'asked me out' the other day, I say ask me out...I highly doubt she would have taken me out anywhere, because she's angry see...very very angry.
I can't help the fact I don't love her, I wish I did, but I don't...How fucking typical.
Maybe I'm happy beacuse Australia are being destroyed by India at the moment, though I sorta feel sorry for the Aussies...AHHH WHAT AM I THINKING?...STOP THIS NOW TOM.

See this is my problem? I dont have a reason to be happy, I have exams I have done little revision for coming up soon, then again...Do I need a reason to be happy?...Maybe not.

In other news, I found my pen.

American sit-coms, social networking sites and why am I doing this?...Should I not be working?

Hello...Is that how you start a blog? I don't know, its how I've started mine. I dont expect you to say hello in reply, you can if you want, it would be polite after all.

This is half term, Thursday to be percise...What have I been doing? Actually loads of stuff, nothing of importance, I've been...how to put it...Experiencing modern culture through the use of the internet and television.
American sit-coms, never been a huge fan, everyone seems to go on and on about Friends as if its the answer to something? I dont think it is, I've watched Friends, yeah its about the bunch of friends who get bored with being friends and end up screwing each other, is that America? I dont know...I've never been.
Parmaount Comedy, interesting channel, I have just watched an episode of Scrubs and Two and a half men.
We shall start with Scrubs, I've now watched 2 and a bit episodes...It's ok, the trouble is so far thats all it is...ok...The first episode I watched was better than the one I have just come out of, thats probably because the one I have just watched was in the middle of series 3 or something...which might explain my confusion on what the hell was going on. Watching it was simmilar to a rollercoaster, my opinion of the show changed frequently and dramitcally, it was funny in places but some of the characters did annoy me...But then I found I actually quite liked them, creating the overall effect of an ok show.

Two and a half men, that was not as funny as Scrubs but due to the fact its all about 3 characters it was much easier to follow, Scrubs seemed to follow about 6 different characters confusing me quite a bit.
So yes that is my expereince of American sitcoms, Scrubs can get a 7/10..Two and a half men can get...hmmm...this is hard....can get 6/10...It just wasnt as funny but did involve a fire.

Scoial Networking, facebook, bebo, myspace, what the fuck is this all about?
I've never had an account on any of these quite frankly terrifying sites until yesterday.....I dont know what come over me, but I joined facebook.
It's alright, I dont really see the point to it at the moment, I filled in some profile stuff, what films do you like? Music? Books etc....Then at the end of all that was a section entitled: About me... AS IF I HAVE NOT TOLD THE WORLD ENOUGH?!?!?!?!?!?
I might stick with Facebook for a bit, I hope you can delete your account somehow though. I dont want to be left on there forever with one friend who we shall call S*.
S has been acting rather strange recently, I mean he's strange usually, but somethings not right...Saying things like: 'Everythings clear to me now,' and then not offering an explantion...I will beat it out of him.

Anyway, I'm not sure why I'm doing a blog...Facebook one day a blog the next, like my Facebook profile I doubt many people will pay attention to this...Probably for the best.

Tom.
*Mentioning S's real name could anger him....He's ginger see.
