34. The celebrations of the eve of new years eve

Yeah so i took my laptop to work this morning, i don't think i will do it again. The amount of hassle I've had from my mum about "it's too expensive to take out" Can someone explain to these old people that IS the point in laptops you take them with you from place to place. I told her she might as well have bought me a computer if she wanted me to keep it in the house all the time, and it's dangerous to take it out.
Hayley contacted me back aswell, she said she thinks she will be better for new years, i beg to differ as she sounds ill but shes going to chill out for a couple of days and come out in the evening anyways. I said i'm not wasting my money on buying a couple of tickets if shes not going to stay through the night and go home sick mid way through the night to leave me there doing nothing by myself, at least Jamie is coming now and i can have someone to talk to besides Hay, i mean everyone else is cool and that but i'm so left out when it comes to chatting in their social gorup i dont really understand most of the stuff they talk about.
Any how sounds like we're going now as i just withdrew the money for the tickets, got to give it after lunch. What a late lunch finishes at 3.45 :| Not happy about that. Nevermind i've got 15mins at 5. :P fruit salad there too. I'm so tired probably going to go out tonight for a few. Not sure though but i'll have to see.
Went dow the pub from work for a few pints and found out Will and Joe are staying untill closing fuck yeah, let the the eve of new years eve

33 In which i was kept on






QOTD: Train driver: Mind the doors, (doors close and opens again) MIND THE BLOODY .. just mind the doors please.

Today was such an odd day, i enjoyed as much as it was odd. Nothing went to plan, but it still went good. I had no idea i was working two lates this week being today and.. tommorow. Even though i'm typing this in the morrow, it'd make sense to type this entry as if i was from yesterday, so i will.
It has been a hard few days to type your blog as a blogger, tbh the only pson insane enough to keep it up has been James and Ian quite obviously :P One of my New Years resolutions is to keep up with affairs on my Blogger. Quite admitently christmas had been a poor one up untill today, I got a watch (rather expensive one that didn't fit for christmas and was quite unhappy at the fact i couldn't wear it as it was about big enough to fit around both my wrists tied together. So sorted that today, and then my mum and dad revealed why they hadn't bought me any major presents this year (bar my watch) MY savings account had been opened.. and with it was money :) beautiful money, money for my driving lessons/car or whatever i wanted it for it was there, i vowed to put in at least 100 every month but i know i will put in more next month :) Uh yes the blessing of SAVING money, a very new prospect for me to grasp but i will run up and grab it with both hands :)
Typing this on the bus journey to work by the way ;) Oh how very modern of me.
Hayley did come into work today for a few moments while i was there so she was too, however she seems to be very poorly and it isn't helped bby the fact she keeps trying t soldier on bless her, i didn't buy my ticket for new years at the Yarn because really to be quite honest, it doesn't sound like my cup of tea. I get on with the people there when i'm out but they never invite me out and i'm not really "one" within their social group, i'm that guy who is just .. there on special occasions and parties, the one you say "hi" to randomly in the street, and make plans like "we should catch up soon" but never really get around to doing it. I was only going to go because Hay was going and her being Ill means she's not going .. thus... i'm not going.
Day was supposed to be ending at 7 but it didn't happened instead i clocked out at 7.20 and just missed the fast train to heathrow by like a minute.. and my bus by litterally 30 seconds... i saw it leaving. A10's are such a shit method of transport.
Anyways you're probably still wonderig what all the stormtrooper outfit wearing photos are about, well for ians birthday back in september i made a mistake on ebay when buying some costumes for a group of us to go as storm troopers to his party, Chris 'whos account i which i was buying them from' Wasn't happy to hear that i had messed up so like a friend i offered to buy the one that i bought on it's own because i sort of had ruined it (even though i didnt have a job and hardly any money at the time:P) And he in turn would put it back on Ebay for me on his brother account, this was back in september and i don't think i can be bothered to wait any longer, so i sold it for a tenner well actually more like knocked off £10 of my debt to James in exchange, to be honest, he's already getting more wear out of it than i ever would xD.
Anyways the photo's are from a muck around photoshoot named, "storm troopers are people too" In which you see the storm trooper in it's natural habitat. I did proie myself that i wouldn't run for the bus today, but i did, i just loved my bed too much this morning, might have something to do with being on one of those chat rooms up untill 2 o clock talking to randoms about politics and arguing with Americans about rubbish, funny though, seeing they really are that dense.Seem's to be the 'IN' thing for me to do at the moment.
Once again Apologies for the long entry but i find alot more time to talk about my day yesterday, in the day of the morrow on the trip to work. I'll probably write tommorows at home in the morning as.. well, as i don't have work tommorow :). well today.. you know what i mean ;)

32 Early post




Early post today as i'm going out in a bit to enjoy christmas partying.
I've decided my new years resolution is to get in shape, no really i mean it, i've realised my metabolism is slowing down now, and since my month or two of unemployment i've put on weight. I'm not ashamed, everyone puts on weight, however i AM ashamed of being lazy and not sorting it befroe it got like this,

Now you're thinking "what are you talking about?, You're a skinny kid" yeah i used to be! and to people who have always been a bigger build to me it might not seem alot of fat but it bothers me. I've realised it's not the size it's how you gain it now, and people who are naturally skinny framed or used to be skinny, putting on weight isn't good no matter how little it is, people who have bigger builds are sort of semi used to being a bit bigger, and there's not much they can do about it because of their frame, and the way they've always lived. However this is really upsetting me, obv i'm not ashamed "hense the image" Sorry guys and girls.. but it's also a self reflecting blog and i want to come online in 3 months and see that i weigh... at least 10st as i way 11st 2Ibs at the moment :(

Time to start running (at gym or on street, and working abs.) I'm fed up with looking like this.

Time to go party but New years is the last of the lazy me!!! Time to take it to work.

NOW THOUGH..PARTY TIME :D

Night everyone have a good christmas if i don't post tommorow.

31 In which i realise my tiredness

I'm shattered, out and out shattered, in a way i'm glad James couldn't come over today, i've already had a nap and i'm going ot bed in a minute. This is why my blog doesn't get ay photos on at this time of the week, when i'm working 7-4 it kills me :| I didn't sleep well last night, as you can tell from my late blog, that was the last point in which i used my comp the rest of the time i lay there with my eyes open thinking of what had been said through out the night. Had a bit of a scrap with George in which he told me i was a shit brother, and he never took it back, he apologised today but last night it played in my mind all night along with why i'm not happy at the moment.. and i don't know why i'm not.

Work was very busy today but someone really took the piss today by winding me up all day long, and didn't know when to stop. I realise why being so close to individuals in my life really makes me who i am, Hayley especially at the moment as she keeps me going when i feel like this, although she hasn't had much involvement lately as we've both been busy with other friends and other jobs, but when we do talk it makes me feel really well and happy.

Blergh to bed now, i'm shattered.

30. In which i'm sorry



QOTD: Lisa: What happened to your gift mat man?!
Me: It got raped :(


I'm sorry for the absence of postage but my week last week was so utterly shit and boring there was nothing to type about. At work at 7 finish at 4 come home eat then bed then again and again. All there is to report really is that i didn't have any starbucks :) Thank you, yes i know... pat on head.

However friday night i went out and got bladdered.. and smoked alot.. was a crazy night but was well fun, saturday was a great day, went up london with Hay but she felt ill through most of it as she was hungover all day, still got her all the pressies she wanted so i was happy. :) Sunday did nothing all day but in the evening went to work do it was quite funny seeing everyone out of work, but the awkwardness wern't helped as Hayley didn't really know anyone so i felt quite bad and decided to stay with her quite often. NOT HELPED BY MY MOTHER, who decided the best place to sit was on the managers table :|

Feel like shit because i think i've said/done something wrong but can't put my finger on it.. guess i won't find out untill i actually talk to omeone about it, i went to bed like 3 hours ago but haven't slept... as i keep thinking about this. BLERGH nevermind, i'm back and you get to read all about me, there are some pics from the do etc to put up but i'll do that tommorow, however i did find a comically fat baby picture of me... YES I WAS FAT :|

29. In which i was sick



Alot, such a shit day tbh, sat stuck in my bed for half of it and then the other half on this fucking sofa, arguing with nobodies on skysports forums, whilst being sick.

Enough to make you hate alcohol i bet it was that woodpecker crap :| Thanks Hen!

No pictures today.. actually i'll take one now. I've sat indoors all day playing some banjo kazooie original on xbox live arcade and that's about it really.. watched some footie and listened to JME and N-DUBZ. JME speaks really good sense. For a rapper anyways.


I've had enough of these fake gangsters,
Like they don't feel pain, never felt pain,
Like they don't have any family,
They havn't fallen in love,
Havn't watched television,
They don't eat and sleep,
They think their waterproof, fireproof, everything-proof,
I just think their idiots,

Punch in the face,
Punch in the face,
Nobody wants a punch in the face,
That's why everybody rolls in a group,
Or with a mash, Or with a baseball bat in case,
They chat waste,
To the wrong person and get a punch in the face,
Now he can't go out with his friends,
He has to jam and shot in the ends,
Shot in the ends, shot in the ends,
Another little kid gets shot in the ends,
Everybody on the TV and the media wanna blame him family and friends,


Good man

Night

OH yeah and i need to lose weight and tone up.. it starts tommorow.

28. In which mother turns transvestite






Today started with a somewhat odd journey to work in which i met Amit, the insurance man from AIG insurance, the guy thought he could give me some life insurance of some sort or something or other.. and then asked me for my number. I vouch that he was probably just some gay asian man who wanted my number. Bless, Arrived at work at 10 worked through till 7.30 but i know i'm not going into work tommorow. Met up with Hayley and my fight against the addiction of both the Starbucks monster and Pizza god, however it wasn't to be and for the fourth time of asking with Hayley, we ate... PIZZA for lunch, i know.. bad, and then we went for starbucks, and i had a caramel Frappe (cream based) OH I FEEL SO AWFUL :( but i was soon cheered up to see my mum enter the cafe looking like a clown, for her 'night out' a girl at work from cosmetics had offered to do her make up.. quite amusing considering she had to walk around with it. You can see it for yourself.

Got home about 7.30 after work with Hay and she ended up staying over which was nice, found ourselves some pizza left on the table, and we DIDN'T eat it, we ordered ourselves the Indian we wanted the other day. It was really nice, a really nice evening, caught up with some stuff, and talked about things we don't really talk about much. I think i'm at the happiest i've been with our relationship now and i don't want it to ever end. We watched a really good film like.. a mini fight club for teens involving MMA (mixed martial arts) 'Never Back Down' and it really got me thinking about going back into it, i've been doing my training with boxing but boxing doesn't really hack it any more.. we shall see how this progresses.

27. In which we had a pointless walk





Today i woke up with a smile on my face, a smile of great happiness as i realised i didn't have to go to work today :D Yes that is probably completely awesome. Hay stayed over so we were in no rush to get up, i was very happy to stay in bed in the morning and watch some TV as .. that's what you do on your day off. Be as lazy as possible, i probably should've got SOMETHING productive done with my life today, but it wasn't to be i'm afraid. The only reason we got up was to eat and even then we decided we'd walk all the way to 'Pangs Cottage' as Hayley likes to call it, (The one on long lane 'pangs chinese restaurant'Upon arrival roughly 1.45pm we read a sign on the window reading that lunch ended at 2pm and from there on out.. it'd be £9 a person so we decided against it. Ofcourse, this was my fault as i was too lazy to get out of bed earlier which caused us to be late for lunch. We returned home via bus as i really couldn't be bothered for the walk home.

It was 2pm and i was starving the idea of indian was a very promising prospect, however they also closed at 2pm as this seems to be 'the in thing' to do if you own a restaurant. So it was then i realised my second addiction of this week, Pizza me and hay eat alot of pizza, i think the last three times she has been over we have had pizza :| whether it be ordered from tops, or create-your-own it's been pizza. I'm not ashamed so i took a photo of my bin, and that's only HALF the boxes.

However, we decided it was fine as we had already had a long walk up long lane today which would have OBVIOUSLY burnt off the calories we had earned from eatting the two medium pizzas and pizza garlic bread and litre and a half of funny fanta.

So, tommorow i return to work after fighting off tempation of drinking starbucks for the second day in a row, i may have to give in tommorow, i fear the caramel frappe god will beckon me. Nevermind.

26. In which Sesame Street was mugged






Have you ever wondered what happened to all the engineers and inventors? I was sitting on the train reflecting on how i have nothing to really talk about on days like these. Conversation at the pub now is so terribly dull. 'So, what did you do at work today?'
'Oh, nothing much, just stacked a few shelves, wrote up some ticketing and helped some ignorant customers'
Now just imagine what is was like in the 1750's
'What did you get up to at work today?'
'Oh Y'know the usual, invented a new tunnel system in the morning and in the late afternoon made a new way to keep time.'
Everyone everwhere was inventing stuff it must've been crazy, what do we bring out now days minus the electrical grabble and boring stuff,it's the digital age/Oil age.. we're bound to figure a new way to create and hold energy before we run out of oil aren't we? They are already making cars which are 'Hybrid' half electirc and half petrol... maybe soon they will figure how to mkae it run from water. Afterall the stone age didn't finish because the world ran out of stone, and the Iron age, Did that end because we ran out of iron? No. The point i'm getting at is, i'm fed up with all these normal people these days who seem to be turning into eco warriors making it THEIR business to stop YOU on YOUR lunch break which is very limited to ONE hour to tell you to remember to turn off your lights and save energy.. for no reason.

As you can quite obviously see, i walked down my usual boulevard this morning after getting off at hounslow central, and realised i was walking down a derelict sesame street. It was ever so slightly depressing.

Work was boring and not much got done, had a headache and felt like shit. However on the up i have tommorow off, so should be greatly exciting, as i plan on doing NOTHING for the entire day. I learned that Hay isn't going out so she's stayed over, after me and James had our 3 hours of gamage, including a RAW gaming session on Streets Of Rage.. :D

Even managed to get my daily work out today too.. awesome.

25. In which Harry over does it.







Today, i found an addiction, and addiction to something i'm not up most proud of, a demon that has been lying under the surface. Untill now i've been a good boy, then, THEN they have to go and open a starbucks right outside debenhams... has to be done. Caramel Frappe in the morning coffee based, and Caramel frappe in the afternoon cream based :| I felt so fat.

I walked in on time today with a smile on my face and a mouthful of Caramel Frappe. Within the first 10 minutes of my shift, i had been comfronted by Nicki (Dep store manager) and Andrew (Store manager) and asked to stay untill 9 tonight to help my mum put up signs, damn being mother to the visual manager. I agreed.

Decided today was the best day for phoning people, i didn't just text people today i phoned them, it means more that way, or so i feel in some weird modern complex way, hearing the voice of someone is more meaningful. Not that it takes anymore effort than texting, if anything it takes less.

Pictures describe:
1) Caramel Frappe Vente (Coffee based) On the way to work
2) Caramel Frappe Vente (Coffee based) On morning break(mum wanting some starbucks)
3) Caramel Frappe Grande (cream based) Lunch wiht mum happy about getting starbucks
4) Caramel Frappe (same as before) being consumed

I have some to the conclusion, Starbucks could be my downfall, i could become fat or even over weight :| and even worse POOR :O and i prefer the cream based over the coffee based but both as nice

And hug a ginger day soon :) i'm hoping to get my hugs worth from most of you :)

24. In which Harry has a distant day





This morning beckoned a new day, a day where i'd be in a better mood... it fell short, dramatically. I woke up late as i have somehow broken the sound on my phone thus, my alarm doesn't work... woke up late "matter o' factly" because of this. This was just the beginning, then rushed to get ready, briefly gave George and Adam a good morning before i rushed off, only to miss my bus by about 10 seconds. Happened in that really annoying way.. walking up the road and you see it ross the top of the road as you walk up except this time i was only 50 meters away from the corner.. :( Then to wait 20 minutes at a freezing cold bus stop to get to Heathrow, and to be told i don't have enough money on my oyster card. I did wonder what all my money went towards on the london underground as i don't ever see any improvements in service or cleanliness... however i reluctantly put a pound on my card, walked back to the gate, for it to just refuse my card AGAIN. Trudged back to the machine to tell me it now only had 30p back on it. 'What?! I had been robbed in broad daylight!' i thought to myself, so i begrudgingly gave the machine a £5 note out of my wallet.. :| Then continued to the platform where the train i wished to board was pulling away, not the best of starts.


At work i spent the day on the gift mat, Irritating as it's not my job but everone seems to think so, yet again another monday tidying up the carnage left by the really painfully lazy weekend staff. I asked jay (my supervisor) if they ever did anything he told me in a sarcastic motion "They do but nothing productive, normally little things like picking their noses and stuff" I looked at him in a bitchy but sly manner and walked off. My life does seem to become somewhat transparent at times, i feel like everything is so predictable. i took my one photo today but haven't had the time to upload it so i took a picture of it from my camera apologies. It's only of the book i was reading at lunch. Good book :) Danny Wallace is a brilliant Author.

Start at 9.30 tommorow .. when Shelly (my manager) asked me if i didn't mind swapping hours so i worked 10-7 instead of 9/9.30-6 last week, i didn't realise what she really meant was "Do you mind working an extra hour next week?" She might aswell of, i went in at 9.30 this morning expecting ot be told off for being late.. when i was 30 minutes early, then i'm asked to come in at 9.30 tommorow because i've got till training but i still have to go home at 7, how is this fair? I don't know.

I'm beginning to become more settled there, however it has given me somewhat of a negative aura past few days, work realted negativity isn't always the best. Need to phone rochester soon and find out what's going on (AGAIN) taking th episs now really, it shouldn't be relying on me to be constantly contacting them, it's THEIR job like i do mine... :|

Going to bed now i guess, didn't see any friends or hayley tonight, came home (8.30ish) Watched tottenham beat west ham now going to bed, quite bad really. Will depress my day even further tommorow :( nevermind

7 Dec 2008

Average




QOTD: (can't think of one... nothing has been said...)

The way to describe my day would be utterly average woke up rather late considering Miss Evans stayed over last night, and the only reason i really got up was because she had to go work/James was coming over to play some Halo 3. Drew some pictures for some tattoo ideas today which reminded me of the picture above... so i put that up as i hadn't taken any photos today :|

Had a lazy day really.. had a lazy weekend actually, felt quite under rated. Which is peculiar as i wait ALL week for the weekend to happen and go out and have fun and then i end up throwing a quite average one, at least we did something different Fri night, but that was yet underpinned as Luke was ill and Henry went home early leaving me with a very drunk Jamie.. who was amusing for a while.. untill his drunken state got some what of a hinder. Sat spent most of the day waiting.. oooh and christmas shopping but didn't get much done. So really a completely un-eventful lazy weekend. Hopefully next weekend will bring joys and fun, i'm beginning to wonder if i'm such a boring person? ..

Looks like we're all going load of hay for new years now to get wrecked and such was previously thinking of ging to london but nobody else seems to want to do it, bar ian and a few other enthusiasts.. however seems like it is to rot, and we'll all end up going there instead. Still could be fun with Murray Brooks andDain behind the bar, just not looking forward to the "after party" as y'know similar to most times, i will be cast aside when it comes to deciding who can stay ;)


Been a bit grumpy i'm ha-sent to add after that small rant, don't know why, well i do but it's nothing major. Tommorow dawns a new day and i am just going to go straight to bed as i have to be up early tommorow.

Two things i just thought would be good for christmas:
Photography memory card reader for my laptop!
Digital photo frame :D

So, i'm back..









I've decided Blogging is definately something i need to do more. I'll type as much as i wish but probably not that much that often.
Since my last post a bit has changed. I Quite debenhams harrow o start work at a seperate photography company with a (promised job) at the end of the two weeks free work experience, however, it didn't go to plan and after quitting debenhams and attending two weeks work experience they were soon to tell me they didn't really have the position available :|

Not good.

So i was unemployed for two months a bit of a lay about but hey! That's life, now back on track with a new job at at a different debenhams in menswear and having a bit more fun :) Good pay too :)

Also broke away from my old group of friends really, still talk to them and stuff and still get on with them but i got a great group of friends in the form of Luke, Marc, Will and Joe and a few others. It's good to know them and be in the friendship group as they all look out for each other really and it always feels like a good atmosphere when i'm out with them.

Been to camber with them twice now, it was great both times, i've enjoyed life thus far.. hopefully i get driving soon :) Been major talks about getting a car recently i hope it happens.

Also been to many a party been getting trashed and wrecked and having a good laugh, when school broke up there were so many parties it was so good, dried up a bit for a month and then we're in party season again :) Just as well i got my job really... i can't be bothered to explain too much as way too much has happened, also there was reading was amazing super cool. Me and hayley had a bit of a rough patch but now we are through it once again to be stronger on the other side, and i got accepted into rochester :) All in all it's been one rollercoaster ride, and now your back again to share the great experience :)

Now, i only get weekends off really, so alot of my posts will be quite boring but heh :D Who cares right? I will get back onto that taking a photo a day thing when i get my camera back :) I'm going gym soon so i'll leave you with this weekends entry:

Friday: Went out got tiddly, was a bit odd, spent the night with Luke jamie and Henry, got a bit drunk went to a party at battle of britain Henry left early jamie got drunk and started dancing with some crazy black guy who could sure dance! and we all lived happily ever after, i left about 12ish to head home on my own before all the drunken chav fighting, and that was that :)

Photos soon
