Decided to do [info]mission101_2009, as an incentive to get things done!
The only problem is I only have 63 things on it at the moment.
There are lots of things I want to do, but because I'm moving into my own house next month [!!:D] I don't have the money for dance lessons/visiting other countries/going to concerts no matter how much I want to!
I'm going to leave the rest til I move in, then I'll know how much money I have, and what household chores I need motivation to do!

Edit: Added a few more goals - Upto 67 now!
Edit 2: List is complete

The List )

1 month to Christmas! Yay!
Not a lot really happening in my life.
I had a meal with my uncle last Tuesday, which was really nice! We went to Mocos in town - which is my favourite restaurant!
I'm using Google Chrome, which I don't quite understand, but I'm sure I'll work it out!

Also I have a new phone! I got a Blackberry Curve 8520 :D I love it!

How AMAZING was the CiN clip of Doctor Who?! :D

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

They mingle not with their laughing comrades again;
They sit no more at familiar tables of home;
They have no lot in our labour of the day-time;
They sleep beyond England's foam.

I forgot to mention, last night I went to the Premiere of a Welsh film called A Little Bit Of Tom Jones.
Honestly - the only reason I went to see it was because it has Eve Myles in it, and I was hoping she'd be there, but actually it was really good! Very funny - very rude, but funny!

I just got Gary to stop watching the rugby match and look at wedding venues :D
And when we were shopping earlier he walked into a couple of jewellers shops on his own accord :D:D

So, last night I went to see Green Day. They were AMAZING, basically.

Set list and a rather huge amount of squeeing under here )

We got in at about half one, and we were up at half 5 to go to Brize Norton for a flight in a VC10 that never happened. Bah.

Got the new BFS album this morning! I love it! Thank you Angela for pointing it out to me! :D And you're right - My Wena is a FABULOUS song! The only problem I have with the ablum is that there's too much talking on the songs, but never mind really!

On a not so good note, my sister's boyfriend was diagnosed with cancer - Osteosarcoma to be precise - last week. A bit of a shock is an understatement. So obviously he's dropped out of uni, and now my sister, Jo is dropping out too to be with him :/ I'm going to talk to my boss tomorrow and see if she can work with us!

And to finish on a happy note - I went £20 over on my card last week, and Halifax wanted to charge me £63 overdraft :o. So I went in and asked if it was a reasonable amount, and if there was anything they could do about it, and they are going to cancel the charges, thank fuck! :D

I HATE the Post Office.
I waited til 11.30 for the postman, cause I knew my book was going to come today, but he didn't come. So I went out to do the shopping. Obviously, while I was out, he tried to deliver it, and couldn't.
So I go up to the Post Office to collect it. It closes at 12.15. The postman didn't try to deliver my book until 12.30, and didn't make a note on there that the fucking PO would be shut.

ASDFGHJKL ANGRY.

Coupled with the fact that everytime I want to go in or out the estate I have to wait for loads of site traffic to manouvre itself round, and wait while they have a chat about where to go. JUST GET OFF THE FUCKING ROAD.

Can you tell I'm not ever so impressed at the moment?!

I am in Manchester, visiting my sister, so I won't be around for a couple of days.

There is NOwhere to park by the uni so we've had to park about 5 miles away in some residential street, and had to carry the 10 bags of food mum packed for her back...

I just really hope someone doesn't trash my car for being parked outside their house :/

HAI EVERYONE

I'm still here - I went away last weekend, and the internet is playing up!

How is everyone? Please comment and let me know how you all are - I'm too lazy to go more than 2 or 3 pages back on my flist!

My world: my sister went to uni on Thursday and is having a lovely time by all accounts, but everything she is saying is making me more and more sure that my desicion not to go to uni was the right one!
Food Fayre tomorrow. One of our suppliers - Castell Howell - is having the Christmas Fayre so me and Lorna are going. Free food! Woop!
I'm going to a funeral on Weds for Gary's great nan. I only met her the once, about four years ago, but I'm going for Gary!

Also, Merlin was fab :D

I just did a very silly thing.

There was nothing coming out of my glue, so I look into it as I squeezed the bottle...
Natuarally, the bit of plastic that was protecting the top came out quite quickly, followed by a large amount of glue - straight into my face.

Do feel free to point and laugh [the Doctor is!].
