Times high on the Bah-O-meter

Hello Readers

Once again I return to that, that is the blogosphere. I've been gone for some time, but hey I've been busy with
  • Psychology Coursework ( I GOT A FECKING E FOR THE DRAFT!!!! I have since improved it though)
  • English Coursework
  • Revision for all my subjects plus one retake in Psychology
  • Some work on the film coursework
  • Driving and that stuff
  • Uni applications
I have actually now applied to Uni to do Journalism. I have applied to
  1. Cardiff
  2. Staffordshire
  3. Sheffield
  4. Kingston
  5. Lincoln
  6. Winchester
I hope to get into Cardiff as it has the best reputation for the course I want. Things seem to be in my favour as they require ABB and I'm predicted AAB on my Application, so im moderately confident.
I have though recieved word from Staffordshire and Lincoln. Lincoln want 260 points which I think equates to quite a lowly amount in grades of about a C. Then again if I go there I get a placement at "Go Girl" magazine.
Tommorow though I have an interview with Staffordshire which means going to Stoke-on-trent!! A long way for a 30-40 minute interview.

Why are these time high on the Bah-0-meter? I'll tell you why. Its christmas time where the likes of these pieces of crap are popular. Still though its an excuse for drunkness etc etc. That's not my key concern, oh no. My problem is the impending January exams which are looming down on us all. The knock-on effect is that I have to revise heavily over the holidays.

Still though there you go people a short post to keep things ticking although more will probably crop up over the next couple of weeks that can be mentioned.

Don't drink and drive or you WILL be branded with a hot iron!

Apologies for the lack of witty title but I really couldn’t think of one at this point in time. I want to just make a few comments about some of the draconian government initiatives which sometimes are tantamount of fascism. I’ll start with a particularly annoying advert for drinking and driving. First of all let me just say I do not in any way condone drinking and driving, I think it’s a stupid and dangerous thing to do and I think the law should be firm on it. However what I don’t agree with in this case is the way that government adverts try to imply you will be socially outcasted and ruined financially if you do it. What’s a stronger message than saying you will die? That’s the point they should probably put across to people rather than implying that you will get caught and be marked for life. The content of this advert is as follows: The TV ad focuses on Matt, a young man out for a couple of quick drinks with some friends, as he's deciding whether or not to have a second pint ...

Everthing is changing and I don't feel right

A slight adaptation on the Keane song there but I feel it rings some truth for todays serving. Change has certainly been in the air of late and not always for the better. The first such issue is the NEW CAR OF THE JANI'S!!! News of a new car normally bring happiness and Joy to all. Sadly in this case I'm left dumbfounded at the poor choice of my Dad who simply chose it for himself and didn't even make a democratic decision by consulting me and my brother. The Car in question is a Saab 95 Convertable. Now for some this would be a dream come true but I disagree. Problem 1. Its a convertable: This is an odd thing to prod with critism but for me it spells a self induced nightmare. I'm very conscious of when I'm being listened too and I think nothing spells a lack of privacy than driving around with no roof! It doesn't help also if you're Dad has a bizarre and sometimes rather embarrassing taste in music which he likes to play very loudly. Not only that but its m...

Driving ambition

Hey I'm Back Well school is well and truly underway at the moment and I've found I've actually had to do WORK AT HOME! What a disasterous thought! quite a lot too what with annoying coursework and that. That aside other things have been going on too. Last week I went to teh Steve Fishers house for some drinks. That was quite fun. For a while we played Texas hold-em WITH ARMY MEN!! (currency that is) I started out with a small but effective force but through some luck and skill I had an army which would have put the chinese to shame. The proudest part was when I won Matts beloved Minesweeper dude. After that I saved the day when we made a much needed trip to the offlicence and I produced my fake ID . The day after that I with Chris and Nick met up with the random girls that Chris had left his number with. This required a long and slow journey to Lewisham. The whole thing can be summed up in one word as awkward. Not much was said between both parties so we decieded that this ...
