Well done girl!

Feels... Weird

Well, today was interesting!
Last Friday I finished work at Oxford Instruments and, much to my surprise, I was kind of sad! After all of my complaining about how the work was boring and I couldn't wait to finish moving stuff around, I actually grew to enjoy the place. The people were good, the job wasn't too taxing, and I got to drive around a lot in a van! But alas, for some reason I decided that RM would be a better option (mainly due to being a tiny bit more money!!)

So, today was my first day back at RM. Given that every time that I have worked at RM I have left vowing never to return, somehow I keep ending up back there! I wasn't worried about starting there again, I have worked there so many times that I know most of the full-time staff, and a few of the temps too. What did have me nervous last night was thinking about seeing Christine again. Although we have kept in contact through texts, I haven't seen her since November, so the thought of seeing her again was an odd one.

The moment I walked back through the door at RM I wondered why! The day hadn't started well because I couldn't sleep! I woke up at 2am looked at my clock and was absolutely convinced that it was 6:30, the time I was meant to be getting up. I was so convinced that I actually get up, turned my light on and thought about getting dressed! It was only when I really started thinking that I realised the actual time. This would have been ok, go back to bed and sleep for another 4 hours, except the same thing happened at 4 and 5am! Think I'm going crazy!

So I eventually get up at the right time, get ready and leave for RM. But it was really during the induction, which I have done 5 times now, that I realised I shouldn't be there! I could have got such a better job if I just applied myself, but there-in lies the problem: I can't be arsed!

So, the fun day of RM work began. Oddly, the one thing that I was most nervous about ended up being the one real highlight of the day. Seeing Christine again was odd, but nice too. It was at the end of the day when I had talked to her a few times that I remembered why I liked her in the first place, she is just fun and I find her really easy to talk to! So maybe RM won't be so bad, and having Christine as a friend again would be nice!

So Christine, if you read this, you ain't so bad after all!

Much Love

Feeling Fit!

Good Evening Peeps

Today has been a good day! Work was good, as it has been recently mainly due to free stuff! So far I have had 4 lcd monitors from the place we are clearing! Not bad if you ask me! One sold for £50 on eBay, one is going to David's Air Cadet Squadron in Cambridge (not expecting money but he says a small amount is possible), one has gone to my friend Tim to replace his ancient 14" CRT monitor. The final screen is going on eBay tomorrow, where I hope it will reach a similar price to the last one!
Anyway, all of this is irrelevant to today. Today was good just because work was bearable! And because I happened upon 1GB of RAM that will work in my computer. Given that the RAM in my computer would cost around £300 for 1GB, this was a real bonus for me!

Apart from that today has been good as I went to fitness training round my local park. It is a pretty relaxed session with a few people from my hockey club going for a run and doing a few fitness exercises, but it was fun. There were only 7 of us there, 3 guys and 4 girls. I'm good friends with the 2 guys so we had a good laugh, and one of the ladies is the 2nd team captain who I copped of with the the hockey Dinner & Dance. It's sad really, it's been ages and I still giggle saying I copped off with her, given her profession! God I love being 6 years old!

Not much else to say! Looking forward to having a few drinks at the weekend, gonna have a little bbq before the England game too which should be good too! (Fingers-crossed on the weather side of things!)

Hope everyone is well

Much Love

Lego Star Wars!!! The greatest thing EVER!

Hello all

Hope people are keeping well, had a good weekend and all that! My weekend has mostly consisted of watching football and playing my newly purchased game on my Xbox. This newly purchased game is Lego Star Wars. The game has been around for a while, but I have just bought it cause it is cheap now.

And it is the single greatest investment that I have ever made! Never have I had so much fun on a computer game! And I play them a fair bit! The game is so simple (read: kiddy) but it is un-ashamedly simple! And that's what makes it fun, I don't have to think too much. Now I'm not the biggest Star Wars fan, in fact I'm generally indifferent to the films, but like most boys I grew up liking the idea of a Light-Saber! And I used to play with Lego, making this the perfect game! Lego with the added benefits of Light-Sabers! Darth Maul's double-ender being by far the coolest!

Anyway, if anyone reading enjoys a good laugh and some simple fun, then get this game. It even has the added bonus of 2-players! A second player can just press start and play as another character on screen! Most fun!

Below are a couple of pics that show the Lego-y goodness!

Much Love

All Is Good, All Is Calm!

Don't worry!

It's OK!

Just in case you are wondering, there has been a drastic change to this post. In hindsight of things I decided it was a worthless post and didn't deserve to take up so much memory on the internet!

And so you get this boring post instead! But to make up for this dramatic intervention, I have included a fantastic photograph of Fat Boy, or Charlie as he is more commonly known!
