  • Tuesday.. Wish it was wednesday though…

    I hate it when i don’t update my blog immediately after the weekend. As most of the time i forget what i did. And this is no exception. I have recently been writing quite a few lyrics down. This is something i have done all my life, i wrote rap’s about al sorts of different aspects of my life. The one i am working on at the moment, is a “The streets” style Rapper Diss, and i have sampled “Another brick in the wall” by “PInk Floyd”, And the track is titled “Another kid on the dole”

    I am starting a few web sites up over the next week or so, i have made a website into a web directory, of which I’m gonna fill full of affiliate links, so that i gain a bit of money that way. Another site I’m gonna start up is a Mini-Directory, stating the sites that i am involved with.

    All this helps the sites I’m involved with climb up google, and in turn makes the sites more popular, etc. And in the case of sites that are profitable, it makes me more money!

    I hit a bit of a rut this past week, all my finances were up in the air, and i had tons more going out then i had coming in. SO i went and saw my mate at the bank. I know her sisters boyfriend, his name is bez ad has a gorgeous mk1 or mk2 escort! Anyway, she moved a few direct debits around for me, and she increased my overdraft by 100 on one of my accounts, so that a bill that was destined to come ont on monday (yesterday) wouldn’t bounce. Me being me tho, the bill was slightly too much, and i still went overdrawn. I’m gonna have to keep my head seriously above water, as i will be getting lots of “Unpaid DD Charges” going out my account soon.

    She said that i was doing well thought, and that my credit rating was getting better. When i first went to her, it was about a 8 (9n is the worst) now its a 5. This is all good as soon i will be wanting to move out and buy a house. And with my credit rating that was looking like an impossibility!

  • Ahhhhhh

    People say that keeping secrets is bad, and that some secrets depending on the type, can affect you as a person. And that statement couldn’t be truer! FOr ages i have longed to end my job at MMX3, and move onto things that allow me to do work of my own.

    And this is still the path that i one day want to take. But after having a very truthful meeting with my boss mark, i think im gonna stick with MMX3 for the foreseeable future, and hopefully move up to a more managerial role, which in turn will help me when i come to run a business of my own one day.

    I never thought talking to my boss about my future, telling him that i get distracted and that my job gets affected because of the amount of things on my mind. And he was totally sound with it. I guess i am in a similar position to what he was in many years ago. He said he worked at the pit, and was earning good money, but it wasn’t testing him enough. And this is exactly the same for me right now.

    Mark has assured me that things here at MMX3 will change over the next few months. I have an idea of what might be changing, and i have a feeling that the changes will be DRASTIC! Since day one here i have wondered why MMX3 don’t do other promotional products, such as banners and flags? As we have all the equipment, but i was always told it wasn’t profitable. Well i think that is the sort of direction mark wants to go in, and he wants me to stick around for when it does.

    Meetings like that give me a great feeling of satisfaction. I got a massive weight off my shoulders, as now my boss knows exactly what i wanna do with my life, he knows i don’t want to be here forever, and i bet he’d even help me start a shop or whatever. And its good to hear someone comment on my work, telling me that i am doing fine, and that he couldn’t ask for more right now.

    As for security, i think im gonna get mt licence, and then sit on it for a bit. lf times are hard when i move out i can always get a weekend shift. And if times aint hard in the not to distant future, i could even have a crack at starting a little security related company?

    WHo know. All i know is that im a lot happier today than i have been for a long time.

    THe foreseeable futures bright, the foreseeable future is marquee shaped!

  • Over-reaction?

    I suppose yesterday i overreacted a bit. I was very mad though, and me cutting down on marijuana means that i am a bit ratty now and then. But i got home and we resolved our differences. Then i took nic out and let her drive my car round a industrial estate. It was fun, but very stressful. I once thought i could be a driving instructor. How very wrong i was ha ha!

    I am trialing “Morpheus” p2p software, and not just because i watched the matrix last night. I’m trialing it because i have never used it, and i thought id give it a shot. Ill let you know if its any good 🙂

  • Monday Morning Blues

    Had quite a bizarre weekend. Spent most of it in bed, not being rude, just sleeping. Lounging about, and watching dvds. We have borrowed my mothers BLockbuster card, and have 6 dvd’s out at the mo. The best is cannibal holocaust. Its a ret weird film about “Amazonia” and about 4 documentary film makers who go to the amazon, in search of natives, and boy oh boy do they find them!

    its said that the director of this film “Ruggero Deodato” had to go to court, and actually swear under oath that the apparent “meals” of the cannibal;s were in fact fake. THis film was made in the 70’s, and even by today’s standards its fucking gory! I couldn’t actually tell if it was fake or not. Its crazy! So I’m currently looking for that, and any other film by that director so that i can build up my gore-dvd collection!

    One film i WONT be buying, is a film called “The attendant” Its a film about 6 american kids who go camping up on this mountain. Its very badly filmed, bad actors.. shit story.. and its only a hour long.. me and my girlfriend looked at each other when it finished as if to say “what the fuck?” Even at the end where there is out takes from the movie, there are clips of one of the women on her phone, talking to someone saying “get me off this movie, it sucks” and things like “my on screen boyfriend is a jerk, he keeps touching me” and one line that made me chuckle a lot “I’m not even getting paid for this!!” – So a big no-no for “the attendant” its wank.

    Like i was saying, apart from going to my mums, and going to get some headache tablets at 7 in the morning, i hardy ventured out the house! Then on sunday afternoon something happened and nic seemed to just get very ratty with me. Even this morning she was nasty to me. – Makes me very depressed. And when i get depressed, i get questions in my head like “are you happy?” “are you with the person you want to be with?” – Now most questions that come into my head are answered straight away, but because nic is the only long term girlfriend i have had, i don’t know if id feel the same as i do now with someone else. The good times are great, and i have a lot of good memories.. But when stuff go’s bad, i get very very angry and it makes me want to be by myself. But like I’ve said, i don’t know if id do that if i was with someone else. I do love nic. But sometimes that’s not enough.

    I could just put it down to monday morning blues, or the realization that i actually hate my job, and i want so badly to leave. – I must write my notice tonight. I am waiting for duncan to say “yes” and then i will know that my back is covered for when i leave. Its so depressing coming to work and slaving away for the benefit of others.

    Best get back to work then eh!
