Too big for the pool

But too small for the ocean.



Just highlights the inadequecy.

in the book of life, the answers aren't in the back.

they're not in the physics text book either "/
Unfortunately, a lot of mine are :/
Or should be.













I really hope they are.

Backblog.

See what I did there? ;D


Well, Ive got a few days to catch up on, so Ill do my best to remember, it was so long ago.. (And there was a lot of alcohol (Y))

All week Ive had Nan staying with me becuase Ma & Pa have gone to Egypt - I like it when Nan stays at ours; the house is constantly pristine, theres no washing up, and theres usually some sort of cake or homecooked lovelyness waiting once Im home from school - goodtimes (Y)

THURSDAY 11

Thursday morning was rather good - we got our resit results from our exams in January, and Id improved in all tests but one Physics (which everyone did worse on).
Overal effect: my grades have gone up, and I seem to be in a pretty good position to finish on as well.
I was personally very impressed with my A in C1 Maths.. ^^

Thursday afternoon wasnt so good - coming out of school, I found out my rear passenger window had been smashed - a tiny hole in the bottom corner, and the shattered pattern across the rest of it. I was fucking livid.
Ive told Pastoral, but they dont seem to be able to do very much about it - I need to prompt them again actually - they said theyd check the cameras at the back gate, even though they dont actually reach the road, they said theyd see if they saw anyone running back into school.
Long story short, I had it repaired the next day for £125. Nan had to go and pick Hayley up from Stansted, just becuase mine had a bin-bag over the empty window. Not fun.


FRIDAY 12

Friday was Emma Cottees birthday at an indian somewhere; I still dont know and Ive asked many times.. -.-'
I went to Eldrets beforehand, and we did basically a whole bottle of Tequila between us, slightly more to me though, since she was being a girl and wasnt shotting it.
So I turned up half cut, said hello to everyone, and started on the wine there was on the table. It was a good night.
Jack and Hannah had a bit of a falling out, so there was a bit of drama about that, but I knew the party would fall back into place soon enough, and it did, and so I danced for the rest of the night inbetween stumbling back and forth to Elderts parents, having a little chat and eating cupcakes (Y)
Chris gave Mike and me a lift to Mikes house where we crashed for the night.


SATURDAY 13

Saturday I spent the day with Mike - we went to Bas for the day, where he went job-hunting, and we had Nandos (Y)
That night I went to Mayhem for the first time - it was really good! Loads of split-levels and stairs and stuff, felt really good.
Amy Gallagher gave Hannah, Laura and me a lift up there, where we met Cottee (whos birthday we were going for), Emily Wright, Liz, and Alex Falconer before going in. Danielle, Devan and Emily Smith were already in there, and we joined into one big group. Im not going to lie, I looked like a pimp.
Had a really good night, however on the way home had to pull over and make myself sick so we could get home in peace - I didnt want to vom in Amys car, and I didnt want to feel so vommy all the way home, so it was the best option. And it worked (Y)
Unsurprising really, I had just under half a litre of vodka throughout the night.. Ooooh yeeeeah.


SUNDAY 14

Sunday was pretty average - went to work, earnt dorrar, and went and got the rents from Stansted. Told them about the window smashing, and in true Wright-parent form, reacted completely differently from what was expected - perfectly calm about it, almost indifferent >.<



Not much happened over the following days, or at least nothing that springs to mind. Fast-forward.



WEDNESDAY 17

My mothers birthday, and the day of my Queen Mary interview!
We both got up late-ish, as she had hte day off from work, and Id decided it not worth going to school.
Mum went to London as well to meet Dad and go for lunch, and then went to see Hayley as well. Lovely.

Theres a little story to go with my interview however - Tuesday Mum phoned QM to see what was happening about my interview (becuase theyd sent me a letter asking for an interview, then changed UCAS to 'unsuccessful', and didnt respond to my previous email queerying it. Badtimes). They said they had denied me becuase I wasnt doing A2 level, and AS wasnt enough to get into uni.
Long story short, somewhere along the line my UCAS has been filled out wrong (probably me, but I wont admit that..), so everyones denyed me straight off thinking Im chancing my luck with A2s; they said for me to go down anyway, and so I did.
They asked me some physicsy questions about what would happen in a given situation if.. - that sort of stuff.
Seemed to go quite well, and I had renewed hope anyway from knowing Im not UTTER shit, just appeared to be.


THURSDAY 18

School as normal in the day, and then in the evening went to Liquid for Kellys 18th; I dont see what everyones got against Lquid, I think its good - all you need is a bar, and somewhere to dance, and its pretty hard to get that wrong IMO. Anyway, had a night out with a lot of guys from work, which was a nice change :)
Cant really go wrong with £5 entry and 3 for 1 drinks..


SATURDAY 20

Rach's party is cancelled :(
But with the promise of being re-designated a day in the holidays (Y)
The pirate costume goes away for a little while..



WEDNESDAY 24

School as normal, and then in the evening we all went to Chinnerys in Southend for Frans 18th :)
Shed hired the whole thing out, and invited most of the 6th Form, so there was a nice healthy mix of people.
I had the usual few asks if I could buy them a beer, and I did where appropriate - I didnt want to be refused for the rest of the night incase they thought I was buying for other people.
Josh on the other hand, got away with a badly, yet geniously, edited Bite card - he went up just about every 5/10 minutes, and she didnt bat an eyelid. By the end of the night, the amount of drinks hed bought, he shouldnt have been able to stand up, and yet he seemed perfectly sobre. Somehow I dont think she cared/minded..
Another good night (Y)


THUSDAY 25

Id been waiting for a day like this for a while - I got an offer from Queen Mary :)


Dear Lewis
I am pleased to inform you that after considering your UCAS application I have decided offer you a place on course F323 which is conditional on your passing A-levels with Maths and Physics at A and B in any order and Biology B. Please ignore your original Reject offer.

Awesome. Totally awesome. At least I dont feel like a total retard now :)
Unfortunately I got this from Birmingham..

Dear Lewis,

Thank you for your interest in The University of Nottingham.

I’m afraid your current grades are not sufficient for entry onto the physics course, as physics require AAB-ABB.

Ah well, fuck em. Didnt want to go there anyway. :)

I also had a test-shift for The Dukes Head in Billericay. Badtimes.

Nothing to do as a server, so they put me on the bar. I didnt know any of the routines, where the drinks where, or how many damned wines they had. They I spilt wine down a womans front and in her face. Later I dropped a bottle of tonic-water on the table.

The manager asked me to come back in 6 months when Id had a bit more experience.. XD

the onyl reason I wasnt so horrifically depressed about it and my Nottingham rejection was that we had a life-coach sort of guy come in, and he talked a lot about positive thinking. I stood in the carpark once Id come out and just laughed. Goodtimes (Y)

FRIDAY 26

Dear Lewis

 

Thanks for your enquiry via the User enquiry form and the update on your predicted A2 grades. Unfortunately, your predicted grades fall short of our normal offer of AAA-AAB. Therefore, we are still not able to make you an offer of a place on one of our Physics degree courses. However, our Foundation Year Programme (UCAS code F008) would be able to make you an offer.  This programme is designed to consolidate students' background in Physics and Maths, and successful completion would lead to normal progression in to the first year of our Physics degree course the following September with no need to make a further application.

 

I hope that you will seriously consider this possibility and if you are interested in this option, please let me know. We look forward to the prospect of you coming to Manchester on the Foundation Year Programme in September.

Another very promising lead ^^

I think this deserves a visit to Manchester :)

 

SATURDAY 27

Harrys mothers gone out to Spain to visit his dad, so Harry has a free house for a few weeks. Excellent.
Me, George, Tricky, Luke, Ashley and Danny started it off. Laura arrived after a little while, and soon after  Marris, Jack, Hannah, Ben and Mike turned up too - quite the gathering :)
This too was good fun, excluding the usual comedown that accompanies me with most drinking sessions.
Que sera, sera.
Again though, good night (Y)




SUNDAY 28

I woke up early, slightly put off by the clocks changing, to make sure I was home before 11 under penalty of death from my mother - we were going to London to have a tour of the Olympic construction site that my nan had arranged.
We were goin with my aunt and cousins, so mt at my nans house for lunch beforehand, then got the tube to Stratford where we met my sister.
Unfortunately, once I was on the coach, the warmth of the coach, the gentle rocking from side to side and hte lack of sleep form the previous night catching up on me, I fell asleep..! >.<
What I saw was interesting though - its a lot smallr than I would have thought, but Ill go have a look again once its a bit more built - very much still the skeletons of the buildings, lots of pils of crap everywhere..




MONDAY 29

I spnd another evening at Harrys; we get chinese, and he plays more zombie games. I still dont like them.

TUESDAY 30

I finally get up to date with my blog after a very long time. I feel almost better, now theres something else crossed off my list of things to do, and another tab I can close in Mozilla - I have them all open when theres things in there I need to remember or do, and this ones been there for a good few weeks.. -.-'

Also, did a Biology stats test today - I was finished very quickly, and this almost worries me..

Also handed in my second piece of homework in a week - this too is odd, and quite possily a record.

Im hoping this phase stays put for a while, its very useful.

There. Done.

Once again

My life hangs in the balance.
With tomorrows (todays) resit results comes a deciding factor for my uni choice, and so the next 50 odd years.

Fuck. Sake.




Please God let it be good. Please.


Dudes (Y)

pffft

Oblivious.

Completely and utterly oblivious.

Or ignorant.

There's a place downtown,

Where the freaks all come around.
It's a hole in the wall.
It's a dirty free for all.

There's a place I know
If you're looking for a show.
Where they go hardcore
And there's glitter on the floor.

And they turn me on.
When they Take It Off.
When they Take It Off.
Everybody Take It Off.



So very jealous;

Wouldnt it be sweet if they could die of a broken heart?

s much as Ive cursed it in the past, Paintshop Pro is actually well good - maybe a bit overly complicated at times, and needlessly long it seems, but good.
Ive been using it to create the homework Austin set us for The Club - I had to write a diary entry or two for Arthur;

Hes a Victorian doctor - this was written the day before he was turned into a vampire.

 

This is two days after the last one; Im going to write into his story that he/his Sire  killed his girlfriend.

Its all very intense.. ^^

If anything, Im more impressed ive manged to figure out how to use Paintshop..!

Im gonna make a couple more, maybe post the story I wrote this evening..

(FYI hes Jack the Ripper - once he comes a vampire, after a few months he gets a bit too into killing, and so hes forced into a 100-or-so year sleep - it makes me very happy it actually all ties together.. ^^)

Harry and I are (trying to) watching it; the 30 seconds or so that loaded at the begining was hilarious - Im talking literal lol-ing.

Its proving hard to find..

Really badly scripted porn FTAW.
