  • Censoring the world

    Ok, first off, i worked 12 hours on saturday and 12 hours on sunday at J24, barrier. I have put that for my reference so that when i look back to see when ive worked, i dont have to trawl thru the whole post.

    Now to the point in hand. I have had two messages off two friends today, one is from hairstraightner boy, and one was (indirectly) from Fi. H.S.B has removed his blog completley, and fi has (again) moved her blog. I guess the reasons for a blog is not to entertain (although i personally like to inject a bit of humor now and then into my blog entries) – it is an online diary that people, friends and randoms happen to read. I guess for some people, it really is something that they only write for their benefit, and really dont like other people reading it. But at the same time when something plays on your mind and you feel you cant talk to anyone about it, your blog is a way out, a way to talk to “someone” about it, and then indirectly have your friends and randoms comment on it, sometimes telling you exactly what you need to hear.

    Unfortunatly, like all aspects of most parts of our lives, there are people out there who like fucking things up. I know fi had some trouble with a complete tosser who kept posting shit comments and being a total cunt on her blog, which (i think) is probably one of the reasons shes moved it. On my about page, ive put that if someone is offended by the things i write about them, then tough shit, and that they shouldnt of pissed me off in the first place. I think more people should bear that in mind when blogging. If every time i blogged something i got on my high horse and started abusing people for no reason, then i deserve any retaliation the abused parties may want to throw my way, but simply recording an incident thats already happened, or commenting on someones attitude towards something etc, then its tough shit. If they didnt want things writing about them on the internet for all the millions of people to read, then they should, Stop. Being. A. Cunt.

    I dont know why HSB has stopped blogging, but what usually happens is new girlfriends find out they have been mentioned in a blog, even if its only nice things that have been said, and freak out. I know my ex used to hate being mentioned in it, but its something that anyone i know has to understand. Sooner or later, you will end up being mentioned on here. And if you dont like that factor, then you best not give me reason to blog ya 😉 There is one person i dont talk about on my blog actually, but hopefully that wont be for too much longer.

    In conclusion, fuck them all. Dont censor jack shit – join the hardcore blogger revolution!

    My weekend has been a tiring one. I had to be at work both saturday and sunday down at Junction 24 on what is called the barrier. I had to sit in a portacabin, for 12 hours, staring at a gate that no one ever comes through. yes thats right, no patrolling, no checks, just staring at a gate. Bullshit! So, ive had a bit of a movie marathon. During my 24 hours there, i watched;

    The longest Yard
    Over the Hedge
    Twin Dragons
    Kill Bill 1 & 2
    New Police Story
    Shinobi
    The Dudesons
    Silent Hill
    The Hills Have Eyes
    The Sentinal
    Scary Movie 4

    I think there are more, but its early monday morning and i cant even think properly yet. I have to say out of them all i enjoyed the New Police Story (or “San ging chaat goo si” as its known in china/hong kong) the most. Its got Jackie chan in, and is a subtitled film about some crazy kids who go round killing coppers, and there is a deep and badly translated storyline that is kinda easy to follow – they need to work on those subtitles tho, haha they were making me piss myself. its a nice change to see jackie doing something in his native language – it means he can concentrate on portraying the charector properly and fighting ret well, instead of thinking what he has to say. Its deffo worth a watch if you like fighting films, and action.

    Also, the dudesons is absolutley hilarious. jackass? Dirty Sanchez? Pfft.. Move over! The DUDESONS are THE kings of crazyness! I cant even begin to tell you the crazy shit they do – ok i will.. One scene they tip toe into a room where one of them is sleeping, pour lighter fluid on him, everywhere, and then light his ass on fire. Hes on fire for a few minutes and didnt wake up cos it was only his blanket was on fire. They then poured more lighter fluid on him and he woke up when the flames doubled. he threw the blanket on the floor, and about burnt the house down (they actally do burn their house down by mistake later on) The guy who was on fire then starts throwing TV’s and monitors at them in  a fit of rage, so they run off and lock the door to the room the fire dude was sleeping in.. He then takes a chainsaw, cuts the door open and chases them down the street. Its fucking briliant, and very, very stupid. Download Buy it, Now!

    I enjoyed watching them all to be fair, and i guess gettin paid to watch them aint that much of a raw deal. It still sucked to have wasted all my weekend working tho. It wont be forever thenk god.

    Dave is starting at the office today. Im not sure which company hes working for today, as we have a few who want our expertise in Sales, Marketing and Design. Lets hope dave works on Maxxd stuff today, and lets hope it go’s well!

    Im running out if things to type, so im outa here.

    Peace out brothers and sisters.

  • Days off, and mars drinks..

    People that know me, know that i have a few addictions. One is adidas sneakers, one is smoking and one is mars drinks. I love them. I cannot get enough of the liquid mars bar drink! Cos they taste so much like the bars its untrue.. Any other chocolate milk drink (and trust me, ive tried them all) is not even anywhere near the standard of these. Them cadburys ones are lush, so are the galaxy ones.. But NOTHING beats a mars drink. If you have never had one, go get one.. NOW!

    Tomorrow, i have the day off. Im really looking forward to it actually, a nice lie in, a lazy day, and i get to mow our lawn as its gettin a bit too long. I saw my dad in asda at lunch time, and he’s gonna come round tomorrow with his lawn mower. Rock on!

    Things are still going great, piece by piece things are falling into place, and hopefully soon the puzzle will be complete. If you’d of asked me what i thought id be doing and where id be living now, 6 months ago, id of probably wouldnt of expected any of my life to of changed, never mind all of it!

    Im just gettin a bit bummed about my cars. I want to sell my clio but i really need a car now due to living further away from work. And i really wanna sort my caddy out, but now im further away from it, so it looks like im gonna end up gettin someone else to do ALL the bodywork, as i was gonna prep a lot of it myself. At this stage i dont care if it will end up costing me £2000 to get my caddy to the stage i want it at. Im just sick of it rotting away in my garage. ive had the thing since i was 18, and hardly ever used it.

    Im fucking glad i have got tomorrow off to be honest, because i dont think i could get away with doing as little as i have done this week so far, for antoher day. I bet you could of crammed all the work ive done this week, into one morning. Seriously. Its been stupidly slow.

    Gonna have a chilled ngiht tonight i think. I mgiht pop and see dave, then borrow another DVD off tony. Or i mgiht watch teh business again, as its a ret good film and ive seen most of my others 4 million times – so watching that one again is no biggy.

    Off now for a few more hours of making myself look busy. Ho hum!

  • The motivation has left the building..

    Officially! I cant be arsed to do, anything! I have been sat staring at this “Write Post” screen of my blog, for about 2 hours. Not only do i feel boring right now, i also feel tired as fuck which is not helping me concentrate. I shouldnt be tired tho really, i have been getting the right amount of sleep, more than usual – yet im still struggling to get out of bed in a morning.

    Me and wardo did nothing but mong out and watch CSI last night. It was ace, cos id not seen any of them – even though i had borrowed the DVD off wiggy about 4 months ago. I had some steak defrosted that i cooked, whilst wardo did some chips. It was much better than our previous attempts. Im stll cooking my steaks too long though, it was brown all the way thru! Boohoo! My dad always used to say “Rip its horns out n wipe its ass” – As he like his steak VERY rare. I like it rare too, but not so its still blue and cold in the middle.

    We took the door of our kitchen too, as it is so annoying. But now i got thinkin that we might actually need it on to keep the cooking smells and noises in the kitchen. Also, is it like a fire hazard to not have a door on your kitchen? God knows.. It feels about twice as big now though, as the door got in the way so much.

    Its our wednesday meeting tongiht. Wednesdays always used to mean scott would come pick me up, we’d go down have a few joints and chill with the crew. Now scott and fi are loved up, and my situation is forever changing  – wednesdays just aint the same anymore! I suppose change is good though. Even though i feel myself drifting away from people who were previously very good mates.

    Looking back a month ago, i was so stuck in my ways. Every week was the same, id do the same things every night. It was so fucking boring. And in a month, its all changed.. I still cant get my head round it sometimes. There is just one piece of the puzzle thats left to settle, and hopefully i can sort that out tonight. if i can, then ill be the happiest person on the frickin planet 🙂

  • Me, my life, and blog..

    Ok, so far, my blog has ended relationships, caused arguments between friends, and has generally been a pain in the arse in regards my life. But… I keep on writing. I have thought about stopping a lot of times. I have thought about censoring this blog a lot, and having another secret one that only i know about to talk to myself about realy personal things. I have also looked into anonymous blogging, but that seems to be a wash with fucked up peaodophiles, and i try and stay as far away from fucked up weirdos like that as possible! Even on the internet! So i thught fuck it, and decided to carry on spilling my heart out to the world, for everyone to read.

    I often wonder who reads my blog too, Random people? Old school mates? Current friends? Ex girlfriends? Who knows.. id like everyone who may be reading this, to post a little comment so i know your there. if you dont its no bother, i just wanna know whos keeping tabs!

    A lady rang dave today, about a charity Itallian Job type event, to raise money for the NCH, the children’s charity..

    “This year’s rally starts off in Venice, and travels through the picturesque landscape of Northern Italy eventually arriving in Turin. The ‘job’ takes place over 6 days (27th October to 2nd November 2006) with up to 200 like minded ‘jobbers’ getting lost and having about as much fun in a mini as is possible.

    Enter with a mate, your Mum or a colleague and enjoy the scenery, food, wine and all that the fabulous Emilia-Romagne region has to offer. All you need is a mini (classic or new) or any other classic car featured in the original film.

    Entrants are asked to try and raise £1500 per team of 2, both NCH and The Italian Job work closely with all entrants to help you fundraise and support you whilst on the job. In addition to this there’s a £500 entry fee per team and general expenses such as food and accommodation.

    Each year a fantastic amount of money is raised through fundraising activities, events and sponsorship for NCH including the sale of raffle tickets with the chance to win a New Mini, selling advertising space on the Mini’s involved and attending various Mini events across the UK.

    Since the event began 17 years ago almost £2 million has been raised for various children’s charities and almost £1 million of this has come to NCH. These funds have helped NCH to continue as the leading provider in the UK of services for disabled children and their families, children’s services in rural areas, family and community centres and services for young people leaving care.

    If you like the sound of a fun packed adventure through the spectacular terrain of northern Italy in one of Britain’s best loved and iconic cars for please visit www.italianjob.com or call Marie on 01773 541525″

    We’ll probably end up doing it to be honest, as we like raising money for charities, and a trip round italy in a mini sounds COOL! I wonder if my mother would lend me hers?

    Anyway, half way through the email i noticed my name mentioned…

    “Think about it….. Oh and Ollie, according to his blog should really come along to the singles ball – cant guarantee they’ll be any randy mares with spliffs but you never know !”

    Ahahaha.. so a random lady from some random charity has read my blog! Random! I dont mind at all, it just stunned me when i read it. I forget sometimes at how freely available this site is, and that just by reading it – people ive never met or even spoke to can know me better then some of my old school mates do.

    Anyway, i suppose i best get this stufff pressed out for Optickleer. My back is really hurting. Could this be the serotonin depletion that i have dreaded for so long, catching up with me? Oh bugger..

    New theme AGAIN for the 4th time today, i have added my eyes at the top, and i think its simplicity and pretty cool layout will mean it stays for a bit.

    Peace out.
