A break...

Well I'm writing this blog cause everyone was complaining about my lack of blogs coming out of me in the past few days... It's amazing the feedback you get when you stop writing on a blog for a few days. Anyway, lets think... the last time I wrote a blog was like... Friday Night, I think.. so I'll continue from Saturday.

Well, Saturday started. I woke up at about 10:30, and got a text from Mike saying that he wanted to go to the bank, before it shuts at 11. (He didn't think it was open at all, but Lodgey said it would so we went anyway)... Needless to say, it wasn't. So Mike called him a "shitting ginger nut" (He has ginger hair) and we walked off into town. We didn't really do much in the town, only walked round had a look in some shops, but other than that... knob all. Well after that I went home, and watched the Boro Match... Needless to say, Lee Dong Gook / Dong Gook Lee, or whatever his name is needs to be sold quickly... He's had a really bad time at the Boro so far from the games that he has played. Can't wait for Alves to join us, hopefully he might play a bit better. Near the end of the match I reliased I had a driving lesson, so I had to miss the last 15 minutes of the match or so. So then I went out driving with my driving instructor. Now this guy seriously... I don't know how he has the patience to deal with me, although I am improving. I was quite chuffed that I did reversing round a corner, reversing into a parking bay, and a three point turn all nearly perfect... but yeah, I'll stop gloating now as most of you lot are already drivers :P

After I came back from driving I went back round to Mikes. And we were sat there, thinking about what to do. I decided we should go to the chippy, come back and watch a film, so we did.. Only it wasn't really the most enthralling film ever... it was Silent Hill. Now I don't know whether you've seen it, or played the game.. but as a concept it's a really good idea, in practical the film didn't work at all. After watching about half of it we switched it off, and I went home and played TF2 with Mike all night... great game tbh :D I love it!

Well, Saturday ended at about 11ish, as I was tired so I went to bed.

Then Sunday happened! Sunday, well that was a weird day. In the morning I was playing TF2 with Mike, then went to my Grans for traditional Sunday Dinner :D. Saw my great uncle who I hadn't seen in a while, and my cousins. Funnily enough my cousins often confuse me as a punchbag, they are only 5 and 7 years old, but still it's funny to playfight with them... It's not funny when your sister also joins in (She's 12) Although it might not seem much, it still helped them beat me up :D. After getting beaten to a pulp by my cousins and my sister, I went round Mikes to go on a walk. He also downloaded Joe Satriani's Discography for me, which is awesome ^_^ Thanks Mike. We then walked to see Jon, weirdly enough he was in! So then we walked all the way to Maske for a laugh... and we got there. Then we walked back through the Ings and back home, when I got in my legs were killing me. So I went in the shower then I put Snatch on... which wasn't that good neither, so I switched it off and watched Lee Evans instead :D

Whilst watching this, I was frantically texting Mia. She had gone to see a show in London with her Mum, and she was travelling back in the car and didn't want to fall asleep, so I said Yeah you've got the wrong person to talk to here... I'd put anyone to sleep. Thankfully she didn't, and she was still awake when she arrived home! Then she must have gone to sleep straight away, as I wasn't getting any replies. So I went to bed.

Well I woke up today and I went to college, Mia had apologised for falling asleep last night, which wasn't really needed, because she's working from like 8am - 10pm tonight. But yeah, college was a bit boring... well I say a bit boring, one of my tutors was off so we didn't really do much in that lesson. And most other lessons were a bit boring :P.

Well, I might do another blog tonight to expand a bit on today's events, but probably not ;D.

Well, that's my life this weekend. Thanks for wasting your time to read it :)

Is this John?

Well... tonight has been really weird.. yeah you think you've heard weird before you haven't read this yet.

Well it seems like my phone was going mental all tonight.. from random people from Manchester ringing me and asking "Is this John?" and other random drunk people called Richard Lowe and Mark Tibbett. But yeah, today has been a class laugh. Went into college this morning at 11am, expecting another boring long lesson of Media Skills, but it went quite fast as we had a deadline to meet today and we got this lesson to complete our work and submit it. Thankfully, being the swot I am (:D) I had it finished and I just needed to put it on a Doovde (DVD for all those who have never seen FoneJacker), and yeah.. In the classroom that we were in only four of the computers have Doovde Writers... So we had to kick the first years off the machines so we could get our write on! After I finished doing all that shit, putting it on a disc and all that fudge I did a bit on my evaluation, then got bored, submitted it and just went off browsing the internet. By this time it was like 12:15.. Yeah I know.. it took me a hour and fifteen minutes to write something on to a disc... get off my blog... now! :P

So yeah, after this the lesson was practically finished, and I decided to taunt Mike who was still at work :D. After this I went home and just went on the computer to kill a few hours.. then I had a bike ride into town... yeah I rock :D.

After that I went round to Mike's house, we normally have a takeaway and sit down to watch a film at about 9pm, after Coronation Street and Eastenders of course :D. But yeah, you can't beat the good old Parmo and Chips. We also sat and watched Roadtrip which he had never seen before, but we both enjoyed watching it.

Although, right at the beginning of putting this film on I got a phone call.. now I had received a call from this number earlier on in the night and I didn't think much of it, but when it rang again I got curious. Mike was like gimmie it 'ere I'll ring them back for you. And so he did,

Mike: "Hello you just Rang me Wud-do-yuh-want?"
Some random woman: "Is this John?"
Mike: "Ummm, no... Are you John?"
Some random woman: "Is this John?"
Mike: "Listen love, are you taking the piss?"
Some random woman: "Umm.. you must have dialled the wrong number"
Mike: " You mean you dialled the wrong number, you've rung me twice already"

By this point Mike had discovered that this woman was a Mancunian and started doing his Mancunian accent.

Some random woman: "Oh well sorry"

Then the woman starts laughing at his accent and says Bye. Mike was going to ring her back up and ask her"Is this John?" but the phone was engaged, so we just left it.

Then towards the end of the film I get a random call from a unknown number, I'm like, well who's this then... Eventually I picked it up and discovered that it was Richard from college, he was at college... I was like, It's 22:30 man, what are you doing at college? And he said, no no I'm not at college I'm near college.. I replied with a laugh... What are you doing? We're out drinking with Mark and them lot. Yeah, so what are you ringing me for? Well you didn't add me in the friends part of your blog... why not? So I reply saying, yeah ok I was going to add you in but I didn't really think you'd want to be up there.

Anyway, he got his wish... and Mandy too by the sounds of it from the phone call.. Go on Richard son! Get your leg over with someones Mum :D.

Well I'm off to play some Team Fortress 2 now, so Ciao for Now, and keep reading

Take Care

Blog Bonanza Day! 2/3

Well, the second blog of today is about my friends.. just thought I'd let you know who they are and where I met them and all that shit inbetween :D

Mike Fairbrother
Well I've known this guy for like... centuries now. We went to primary school together, but we didn't really talk much. Then we started talking alot more in secondary school. This guy is regarded as one of my best friends... ever :D.. Might sound corny or whatever, but he's great. He's always there if I need to talk to someone and he's always offering a hand with any problems that I encounter. We often play online games together, and work as a very good team. Often I'm the one fannying around trying to make him laugh, and often it works :).

Jonathan Lancaster
Well, I've known him for about the same length of time that I've known Mike. Mike and Jonny were best friends in school and I sort of just.. well merged with them I guess. We've had loads of class times together as the three of us... like drinking round Mike's on many occaisons and playing pranks on each other... just two words up, skirt. Yeah, nobody will probably understand that little joke.. but Mike and Jonny will... and It was hilarious at the time....not :P

Amy Scott
Yeah, I bet you didn't think you'd appear this far up did you? :P Well Amy is another random person like me, and we talk about anything. I always comment her new pictures on MySpace, giving her sarcastic comments to cheer her up, and she does the opposite to me. (But mine are funnier! :D) Amy studies Art and Design at my college.. she's not very good at it, but she thinks she is! :D (Only joking hun). She likes setting banana man on me, which isn't very nice.. but I'll get over it I suppose :).

Samuel Foster
Well... this is another friend of mine, yeah he can get annoying... alot of the time but still he's a great laugh when he's not being a knob end :D. Oh yeah... and Have you got her number yet? :D

Jack "The Borrower" Borrow
Well, the nickname from above came from Sam "The Bender Boy" Foster, and the nick name came from me. But yeah, Jack.. even though he's very quiet when you get talking about something that he's confident with he'll talk about it for days. He's a very intelligent person, and this shows in his amazing college work (which I have to admit, I am jelous of in most cases). He plays online games with me sometimes, and I own him :D kthxbi.

Miaaa Vaughan
This girl is absolutly unbelievable. She's honestly the best girl I've ever met. After just a few hours of knowing each other we were texting. Crazy, oh well.. She's a crazy salad eating Londoner that's obsessed with the gym and Apple Mac's, oddly enough. And that is a common taunt that I give her :D.

Laila, Nick, and Mike H
These guys and girls are seriously the shit. Honest to god.. they're funny as. They're from Belgium, and I met them playing a online game. They're honestly great people to talk to and have a laugh with. They sometimes get annoyed with me, and I sometimes get annoyed with Mike.. but yeah, they're still great people and I plan to visit them sometime in the near future. Fuck knows how I'll get over there... heck I'll even walk if I have to, but I have to meet these people.

Richard
Richard is another friend that I met playing online games, he is also from Belgium. Richard is a extremely intelligent perosn, often speaking English even better than me. He knows many different languages, Flemish, English, Latin, Spanish, and Greek. We've also had some good times together online. Most noticibly when talking over Webcam / Audio / Video whatever you want to call it. The phrases that will make him laugh are, Chocomilk (Lol) and Gowayyyy! But yeah, I haven't really spoken to him much recently, but when he gets his new router he'll be playing Team Fortress 2 with me all the time. I also plan to visit this guy in the not to distant future.

Richard Loweee!
Well here he is by special request, so here is where I get to slag him off :D. Well I met Richard at college in the first year. And I thought he looked like a pretty cool guy, and I wanted to get to know him alot more. So yeah, in the second year we started talking alot more, but even still I don't really know what to talk to him about... but we're getting there. Richard is a big supporter of the Mighty Reds and we often share the latest transfer news in lessons... when really we should be doing work... But Rodder's will never know ^_^. He's a great laugh now that we talk alot more than we used to, and I still think that there is alot of talking to be done. But yeah, potentially a great friend. :D

One of Three Bumper Blog Day!

Well this is going to be the first of three updates that I will make today, and this first one is just to introduce myself... Because I didn't really do that in the first post :)

Well, My name is Sean, I'm from Redcar in the North East of England and I'm 17. I am currently a student at Redcar and Cleveland College and I'm studying Media (Games Development), which is fun most of the time.

Outside of college I have a few interests, these are Computing, Video Games, Music (Both Playing and Listening), and Sport. I don't play a wide variety of sports as I used to, but I still play Badminton weekly :).

I enjoy Heavy Metal / Rock music, and I like alot of old music, so if you see me listening to Duran Duran then.... well I don't know... message me and talk? :D But yeah, I like a few different genres of Music, my main favourites from these genres are Joe Satriani, Jeff Beck, Steve Vai, Iron Maiden, Lacuna Coil, Nightwish, and Yngwie Malmsteen. Now that I've probably confused alot of you because you probably won't even know who they are I'll move onto the next section :D.

Horror Films, I just looooveee 'em. Anthing from new horror to really old horror. Anything from Nightmare on Elm Street, to Dawn of the Dead, to Evil Dead, to Saw, to Cube... you name it.. I love it. Although one of my favourite horror films has to be the Ring... it is just... amazing. Apart from horror films I like teen comedy films like American Pie / Eurotrip / Road Trip. But yeah, one genre of film that I really hate with a passion is Fantasy films... all this Lord of the Rings bollocks and Harry Potter rubbish... yeah, I'm not the best person to talk to if you're interested in them type of films :).

Books, not really... I don't really read to have an opinion on them. But I enjoy reading autobiographies every now and again.

Well, I can't think what else to write... I've wrote alot more than I first expected so that's always a bonus. And I hope I've wasted about 5 minutes of your time reading my blog, don't forget to give me a message on MSN, MySpace or anything else you know me on just to say that I'm doing a smashing job :)

All Feedback is good feedback, and I can take constructive critisism... so construct me!

Take Care,
Sean.

Life.

Life.... Well, I thought i'd try something new with this blogging thing. I'm not sure who will want to hear about my daily stories but yeah... tough I'm creating one anyway. I'm not the best writer in the world, but I have my own specific writing style and if you don't like it.. DO ONE! :P

Right anyway.. blogging.. Well this is the first real time I've thought about making a blog and I didn't really know about MySpace's blog feature so I'll try it for a week and see what people think about it (Comments regarding my blog would be deeply appreciated as it gives me a reason to keep doing them).

Well.. On my way home today I was thinking about life, and how some people's lives are better than others. Maybe it's in my personality but I struggle to make new friends, saying that, the friends that I do make are great friends to me and always will be. But yeah, I'm a very shy person and often find it difficult to make new friends, and even worse than this, girlfriends. Well, the last girlfriend I had was some years ago now... and I'm not ashamed to say that but as much as I dislike the girl for cheating on me, it was still the best time of my life. And what I don't understand is... well, I don't want to group them with a certain name but some would call them "Chavs" have no respect for girls. Whether girls like bad boys, I don't know. But alot of people say that some really high percentage of boys are only in a relationship for sex or whatever, but I'm not. All I want is a kiss and a cuddle every now and again. Sure I'll probably get ripped to shreds by everyone from college who reads this, and all of you are probably laughing right now, but seriously... that's all I want. Sex, in my opinion is just a word... It's not needed in a relationship at all... Trust and Love is all that's required in a genuine relationship. Whether I'm just saying this cause girls aren't interested in me? I don't know.

Anyway, I've wasted enough of your time already... Give us a message if you liked it, and I may do some more... But for now...Take Care.

Sean.
