  • a spurt of good luck

    today, for the first time in a long time, i had some good luck ๐Ÿ™‚ i opened a bag of mine and found ยฃ20 in it ๐Ÿ™‚ which was nice! also i have been to the bank today, and spoke with this gorgeous blond bank lady, and we have sorted out loads of stuff finance wise, and hopefully i shud be sound with cash ret ret soon! ๐Ÿ™‚

    insurance is swapped over onto the caddy, as soon as i get the papers thru i will tax it, and then BLAMMO i can drive the fuker! im gettin some wheels after the weekend.. HURRAY! i have FINALLY started to progress! ๐Ÿ˜€ ๐Ÿ˜€

    good bye for now, have fun, sleep well, wear your seatbelt… and thanks ๐Ÿ™‚

  • day.. erm.. not sure..

    i think its sunday.. i got in after my 13hr shift, stayed up till about 12pm then went to sleep for “a few hours” and 13 hours later i woke up ๐Ÿ™‚

    i guess i was very tired. im suprised i fell asleep, ive been coughing my self to death the last couple of nights, its very annoying.

    ive bin lookin for things to brightnen up my blog, but i still cant do php and its annoying. bblog uses smarty plugin or summat.. and is theme/template based.. so theoretically i can make it look like anything i want, if i knew how! also you can install plugins to do other cool stuff, like gallery plugins and stuff.. if any of my php friends are bored, try n make some,ย http://www.bblog.comย <- thats the main site, install on ur hositng and let me know!

    im thinkin of trying to get overtime so i do 7 days a week. its something i have thought about for a while, and its the only way i can see my self gettin out of debt, and have money to buy shit as well. i will be a boring non-going-out hermit for a bit, but thats life eh!

    ive also been looking at the stock market. i have been reading up on it, and learning what all the phrases mean, and how it all bascially works. and i recon as soon as i got spare money im going to invest! you can do it online, via some bank sites, and i cant save, so i thought if i BUY shares, then i cant spend the money on crap! i was reading this site, and it sort of got me thinking on how you could bend the rules slightly if you were a company owner.

    right. start a company up, a legit one, that produces a product that either sell’s well, or sells ok, and costs fuk all to make. leave the company for a year or so, so it grows, then put it on the stock market. say for example the comapny is worth ยฃ100,000. Sell %50 of the shares (ยฃ50,000’s worth) in say 100 shares. so thats ยฃ500 a share. and you are still the majority share holder.

    you then make the company profits go DOWN, fuck something up so that the company becomes worth less money, then when the people panic and sell there shares, buy them back for less than you sold, and youve just got money for nothing.

    would that work?

    hahahha scams.

  • haha. day 3. change of plan!

    well, i sort of failed the first day! scott came round and forced me to smoke weed, honest, he forced me! *rolls eyes* ok, maybe he didnt force me, but he sort of made a few truths ring home!

    at the end of the day, it gets dark. lol no but really as much as i want to save up and shit, i also dont want to be a “all work no play” person, which if i stopped smoking weed, i would be. and im not a weed addict, im a substance addict, so if i stopped smoking weed, i would substitute it for somethig else, like beer, and i would go too far and end up gettin caught drunk driving, and i fuckin hate drink drivers.

    SO instead of trying to kid myself that im stopping, im gonna gradually cut down, and hopefully one day stop. i am making myself NOT buy any weed during the week, and im gonna try and initally limit it to the weekend. so wish me luck (again)

    *hangs head* i have the willpower of a stone.

    in other news, heh, i have been buggin my mum for ages to chip in with my dad and buy me a private plate for my 21st birthday. now i said i ONLY want 1 plate. “OLS74R” (OLSTAR) but unfortuatly its a “cherished” plate which basically means they think its cooler than the norm, so they lock it up and auction it off for stupid money. i will still have it one day, but notย justย yet.

    i have found a new plate tho, and i think its pretty damm cool! “B15 OLL” (BIG OLL) well? what do you think? it works out tho after VAT and transfer fee, to be about a grand! :/ which is silly money really. but i really want it and will continue to bug my mum till she caves in!


    This is the plate ๐Ÿ™‚
    hehe. years ago, when i 1st bought my golf, i also bought the plate “B19 OLL” but some other BIG guy called olly bought it and i couldnt have it. i was gutted!

    anyway, i just finished a 13 hour shift at work. so im gonna go relax, have a bath, and maybe go to bed, i migght stay up tho, see how long i can stay awake for. nah, thats a stupid idea.

    sionara.

  • oh shit. day1. non smoker.

    well, mat has convinced me to quit smoking. full stop. i say its gonna be hard at first.. but if i think to myself itsย notย then i recon i’ll be able to do it.

    all i gotta keep in my head is that i will have nice teeth, fresh breath, more cash, better lungs, and i wont smell like an ashtray. the only part i think is gonna be hard is the inital gettin home after work, tired, need joint to relax part. but as i said before, ive just gotta get it into my head that i dont want a joint. instead, ill have a nice long bath.. soak for a hour.. then do shit thats constructive, instead of sittin down n wasting my brain cells.

    i really love smoking weed tho, but ive gotta look at the bigger picture. my heath, my image, my money. we have said that if we ever went to amsterdam we would still get wasted, but i think anybody who go’s there smokes a bit of the weed ๐Ÿ˜‰ the reasons its been hard to quit before is that EVERYONE around me smokes it.. but mat’s quit, and i recon cos its not me on my own, ill be able to do it!

    even writing this is sort of therapy. i just gotta keep thinkin of the benifits, the fact ill have money to spend on my car, on me! (wow i can buy new shit!) and ill get thru this no problem.

    mat has already done a week, and has sort of inspired me. he’s been smokin weed for SEVEN years.. ive only been smoking for 4. so it should theoretically harder for him!

    im off to sleep now, and im not stoned at all.

    wish me luck!
