1. What is your favourite memory from the past? When I went to cornwall with Harriett and climbed up a cliff over looking the sea where we found an in-dent in the cliff face with two flat slabs of rock, we laid down on one each and fell asleep, It was the most calm Ive ever been and although ive always thought money was very important I remember thinking, "This is so simple, and yet im happy" (im not sure if quoting what I thought is really correct but never mind).

comparative isnt it?

. If yes, how are you coping? by filling in pointless questionnaires on blogger to make my mind think its doing something because I feel guilty when doing nothing so I read or write because then I feel “busy” but really I should be doing college work but the pressure that I may fail causes me sub-consciously to wonder to blogger or a book, and although I know I have now made it conscious I shall stay anyway. :)

Mark Speight (smart/r.i.p) + Rolf Harris (animal hospital)

.12. If you were to die tomorrow would you like to be buried or cremated?
I want by body to be donated to medical science so the german guy who looks like freddie can have a look inside ..Mwhhahaha. :)
.13. If you had to say sorry to someone who would it be and what for?
my future self - for not trying harder.

.16. What religion are you? None (not Nun, NONE lol) there is no god, im 99.9% sure.
.17. What was your favourite cartoon when you were young? Arthur and power rangers, but I didnt really like cartoons its all about the queens nose/bernerds watch.
18. Are you a slob or clean freak? both, at different times.
19. Are you in love? If not, do you want to find someone perfect? No I am not, and on my thoughts on there being someone "perfect" for me see Tim minchin- if I didnt have you (use youtube dumbass)

and many things are subjective but some things are just wrong.

yes you can.

I am writing this whilst watching history being made American history maybe but history never the less, this will be in our children’s history books just like martin Luther king was in ours, I am talking of course of the inauguration of Obama the first African-American president.
He symbolise change, was always against the war in Iraq, and well.. seams like a nice guy so congratulations America.
Barack will now move into the white house that was built 200 years ago by afro-Caribbean slaves, just makes it more meaningful doesn’t it?
There is concentration on his father because he is African, but lets not forget the person that actually brought him up, his mother Stanley Ann Dunham (yes Stanley, she was given her fathers name) who is of English-Irish descent! and who’s best friend in high school, said: "She touted herself as an Atheist, it was something she'd read about and could argue. She was always challenging and arguing and comparing. She was already thinking about things that the rest of us hadn't”. (thanks wikipedia)
See, how cool was his mum? Lol
Ok enough politics, I haven’t written any blogs as I haven’t had anything to write about, basically my life is boring!
so an update of today?:

Why its a good day?
I had to show 7 Chinese students around my college, I was talking to their guard Mr.Wong (I didn’t just make that up that’s how he introduced himself) he’s 23 and goes to university here, the students old school day was from 9am - 8pm (8PM!!!) I tried to talk to them but their English wasn’t that good they’re really sweet though lol, but any way that was my slight break in the monotony of life for today.

Why its a bad day?
I miss my intellectual friends, if I meet one more person at my college that doesn’t know who the prime Minster is. I might just die.

Well that’s about it, I will try and write more blogs more often, and I leave you with my own view on a much talked about subject.
Love is subjective

whats so great about being 18 anyway? (I want to be all grown up)

Firstly, I’ve taken this question from a friends blog, it was, I suspect, a rhetorical question to emphasize the point that “nothing” is the answer to convey that she believes that 18th birthdays aren’t anymore important than other birthdays, but my point is …well that I couldn’t think of anything to write a blog about to be honest so I thought I will use the questions to get started.
Personally I am looking forward to being able to legally buy alcohol, not so much so that I can drink it but just so that I’m able to buy it, at the moment on the rare occasion that I choose to buy alcohol whether it be the stereo-typical teenage alco-pop or a more sophisticated bottle of wine (to share with friends btw lol), so there I am, ready to go to a party or a little picnic with some mates, standing in the shop with my alcoholic beverage of choice, now, I know the law and I’m not saying it should be changed, (drunk 10 year olds falling all over the place is not something anyone wants) but when the shop keeper looks at me with that look as if to say … 18?? HA I think not.
Then asks for I.D in a tone that says, I’m not going to sell you that because you’re a child, its frustrating, right and legal, but frustrating never the less.
I do drink socially at party’s and my mother doesn’t mind if I drink, I have never had a hangover, I have never thrown up drunk, and yet the law says im less responsible then those 20-30 year olds that fall out of clubs after some shots and a few pints stumble in to a road have a fight then fall asleep in a doorway somewhere, again im not against the law its just inconvenient at the moment.
When I’m 18 that’s the end of there being any lawful barrier labelling me as a child, and I cant wait till I get asked “do you have I.D” and can reply “YEP” ... so there we go, that’s why I think being 18 is going to be a big deal for me!
So, that was my first blog, random and a bit boring maybe, but I couldn’t think of anything to say so there we go, I will try write something more thought provoking next time.
Bye x
