Ping... Pong.... Ping..... Pong..... Ping.... 3D Pong!

Here we are again, yes Miss Crazy I know I hardly ever post.

I have now passed my Driving theory test (33 out of 35 on multi choice and 61 out of 75 on Hazard perception) and I am going to start having driving lessons on the 25th so that I know what the standards are for passing the final test as I have no idea how good I will have to be to pass.

I have finally got an offer from a university after all the hassal with millions upon millions of forms to fill in. Warrick is offering me ABB including maths which I think that I can probably achive without too much difficulty although I may have to start working a little more at home because at the moment I do next to nothing.

I hope no one had any difficulty finding this blog now the location has changed. The reason for the change is that if I have it here I can make the rest of my webpage (not yet complete) with my blog integrated and still be able to update it fairly easily through the blogger system which very kindly allows you to use your own space.

here is a 3D version of the ancient video game classic "Pong" for you all to play (WARNING: it is extrememly adictive)

Go here for 3D Pong

EDIT: changed to a link as it was taking too much time loading and wasn't formatting properly for IE users

wow, almost a month since I last posted, I've been way too busy, I finished my UCAS and hoped that it would all be over but no, now I get a form from some of the Unis asking things that was already on my UCAS form and other stupid questions that could easily either be asked at an interview or found out on the internet or from the school. Then I had a form to fill out for Year in Industry which I don't reccon I'll get into but I thought I'd take a shot at anyhow and now I have to revise for my driving theory test on Satuarday, I hope to hell that the screens that I sit my test on are better than that of my laptop becasue on this I can barely make out that pedestirean that I'm supposed to be able to see 200 metres up the road or see whether that lorry is moving or stopped.
I can now see reems and reems more forms coming my way when everyone else applies and those universitys that haven't yet done anything will get their asses in gear and decide its time to reply

On the plus side I have been for an Interview at Warwick which I thouhgt went fairly well, I was also very impressed by Warwick's campus and facilities
I combined this with a visit down to London to see Sonja, Rebecca and Arun which I thouroughly enjoyed (no snide comments please Dave)

Stop dying on me!

I know I haven't posted for a long time but thats no excuse for you all to start dropping dead. First it was Mike with his "Oh.. I think I'll get up and walk about a bit more and then drop down dead again." Now it is Kier who for some dubious reason (which I'm sure that Davus and Mr.T are making sound a lot worse than it actually is) has died although I hear that ninewells have done a good job ressurecting him although all the rites seem to be taking a while.

I'm now wondering who is going to drop dead next.

Will it be Robert which will mean that I don't have to get my ass in gear and write him a profile? (any suggestions for it would be appreciated although I don't want any controversy over it despite the fact that he clearly used to participate in the type of rituals used to make small children's teddy bears stand up and strangle them) I'm also slightly worried that he used to keep an axe under his bed.

Will it be Davus so that I can finally throw away my contact lenses which have a special layer in the middle that do not allow light of wavelengths between 620-585 nm to pass through them?
Or will it be Connor so I can nab his physics project, which is vastly superior to mine, and get a deccent grade for AH physics which for some reason seems to be one hell of a lot harder than Higher

anyhow I'll take your bets on who the next victim will be.
you may have noticed that I have omited Mr.T from my list, this is because I cannot belive that such a happy camper could possibly be extinguished in its prime, no he will have to go at least one step further (either that or give the profits from his little production company, Dramatic Gasp who seem set to make quite a name for themselves in time, to me in his will).
I'll leave you to ponder which of them is the most doomed.

Stay Alive (you damn well better)

dyelsxia mtaetrs not?

I know that few people out there like reading copy and paste type things, I was going to post about my stay in London at the weekend but the post I had written out over a double period of computing got completely swallowed although due to more recent events I am kind of glad about it. I would still like to say to Rebecca, Arun and especially Sonja that I'm missing you.

Well what have we here?

Watch this
can anyone work out how they fold that shirt so fast? if so please tell me because I could really use knowing how to do that when I'm worknig at Oxfam. would it work with a long sleved shirt?
I haven't posted for a while because my life is altogether too boring, not much to report, loads of people have been off last 2 days becasue of open days in Glasgow and I was off on the highly aclaimed Peer Tutoring day on Monday, they tried to convince me to do scribing though I'm fairly sure my hand writing would have been worse that the tutoree.

There you are, told you I'd get a blog up by 10 today, I hope that Sonja and Rebbeca had a good day back at school.

Crazes

Sorry about the late posting of this but our internet went down for no apparent reason earlier for a couple of hours.

I was wondering what everyone thinks is going to be the next big craze for the primary schools? I remember that the three biggest ones, I'm sure that there were others, we had were Pogs (you know the small disks of card that you stacked up in a pile and then tried to flip over as many as you could), Tamagochis (the electronic pets) and Yoyos (for those of you with leaky memories: the things that went up and down the strings).
I was at my cousin's in England and it was apparent to me that Pokemon cards had struck a lot harder there in the primary schools than it hit us.

I think that the next big craze will be little working pocket robots whose parts you can swap with your friends in the hope of building the ultimate robot

See if you can come up with something a little more imagianative, I don't have much time to think of anything but when I do I'll post it.

OW

I've just gone back to my standard routine of going to Tae Kwon Do class every week but after having been away for the summer with no one but my sister hitting me I've found that getting hit hurts! I expected to go back and find while getting hit isn't the most convenient thing to happen its no major set back but it seems that many of the people in my class have been going to other classes else where and keeping their strength up so that they can pound the living daylights out of me now I get back. Anyhow I'm now back in front of my laptop bored with large bruises all over and generally feeling depressed and sore.

This is what you get when you go to random sites that get posted on forums:


If you haven't been sick yet you are a less dizy man than I(or possibly a less dizy woman than I).

Thanks to everyone who has been good enough to grace this site with their pressence, oh alright alright, thanks to Davus too for providing half the comments so far.
