I'm nervous

Almost forgot about this thing. Oh well. My interweb is being a picky arse recently in deciding which webpages it will and wont load. Interestingly enough all the good web pages are the ones refusing to load. Figures.

So in this time of boredom, I have discovered another website to prat about on, the site in question being www.faceparty.com. Whilst I'm not usually one to arse about with all that rubbish, I ended creating myself a profile, although quite why I don't think will ever become apparent. In other interweb news, I now have the ability to send out Gmail invites. Ones already gone and Ive got another 5 left, which are going to be reserved firstly for friends, then the weebl and bob forums if I can ever get back on there.

I have 3 days left now until the next term starts, and I still have not done much work. Then again all it is is reading for history, can easily be done in a weekend. The funny thing is, most of summer was slow and boring, and now its fast disapearing I dont seem to have any spare time. Not that its a bad thing, Im rather pleased to actually be doing stuff in real life, although I am a little aprehensive about tomorrow. It invloves boats, and with that come water. However I will be able to spend the day speaking like a (ninja) pirate. Yarr!

Sleep Deprivation

Its half 12 at night. Now for the past two weeks I have been going to sleep at about 2am in the morning, so half 12 isnt really that lat to me anymore. yet this night I am begining to feel the effects of sleep deprivation. Now I am bored out of my mind and I wnated to ramble on a bit about sleep. After careful consideration I decided that the weebl and bob forums would rather not hear my incoherent ramblings, then i remembered I have a blog now. So here we are, I will rant to whoever reads this. Probably no one, which is fine by me, in any case I can read this back to myself in the morning and laugh.

The last time I felt sleep deprivation I felt as if everything idnt exist and I was in some surreal dream world. This time its different. Im seeing things move out the corner of my eye, and I feel a sensation that is quite like being drunk actualy. I feel dizy and I want to lay down, yet I feel compelled not too. Ive always been curious what the effects of lack of sleep are on the human body. Currently I have headache, and extreme boredom. Surprisingly there are 4 contacts on my MSN list, however one of these is in america so is excusable. IRC is proving fruitless as its too dificult to follow whats going on in the channel anymore. The forums were down for me since 6pm, but they're working again, but as usual at this time they're dead, so in all I ahve nothing much to do but bable on here.

Now I think will be a good point to stop as I dont knwo what the hell Im writing anymore. I apologise for the lack of spelling in this post, and hopefully the next one will be written when I am in a fitter state to write.

GMail!

Right Im putting in a little edit here, as I want to show off for a bit. Ive just now got myself a G-Mail account, and have been playing around with it for the past half hour or so, and Im impressed by what Ive seen. Firstly the 1Gb of storage space is amazing, and the speed at wich the account loads and displays things is terrific, even on my slow 56k connection. Its got the usual google style, meaning there are no ugly colours, just nice plain white and blue meaning you dont have any horrible flashing adverts, just plain text links, which thanks to AdSense are actually related to what you're reading. At the fear of begninning to sound like a salesperson for Google I shall stop my rantings now.

The only other thing of note is that I just realised that Ive got under a week before the new term starts. Im getting pretty bored, so Im not worried about any of that. Im more worried about the fact that I want to get my UCAS application finished by mid-october to stand the best chance of getting in to the University that I want. The only problem is that Ive only just decided what course I want to do (History), and I still need to find 4 other universities to put on the form, and then there's the hassale of the personla statement thing you have to do, and Im getting a bit worried at the fact I havent done any of it. But Ive always left things to the last minute in the past, and they've turned out okay, so this should turn okay in the end too.

Before I start going into angst mode (not a thing I want to do) I will shut up about my personal problems, and leave you with what genere of rock I would be. Classic rock? Too right! Queen, Rainbow, David Bowie, Dire Straits, Led Zeppelin, the list is endless. Rock on!

Led Zeppelin
Classic rock! Without you the other genres
wouldn't exist! You are the raw and original
sound of rock! Other genres may try to imitate
your rawness, but they can never be like you!


What genre of rock are you?

First Post

Okay I've just spent the last half an hour trying to get my blog working, and after going through several URL's that were wither taken or caused the blog to cock up for some unknown reason, I think I've finally got everything sorted.

So now here we are, first post in my shiny brand new blog, and the first time I've ever bothered to record anything of my life. Why a blog? Well truth be told it is just over halfway through summer, and although sleeping until 1pm and doing pretty much nothing all day may sound pretty fun, its gets boring after a while, so I need something to do. And when I get bored and having nothing else to do, then I do pointless things like make websites that nobody wants to read, and now make blogs that nobody wants to read. Go me.

As I'm new to this game I have absolutely no idea what to put in this thing, so until I come up with something that you will be interested in reading, then this will have to do.
