10:36 pm - What does L-seven mean???
|
Hey.
Not much has happened. I generally lead quite a boring life, I guess. Got home from university on saturday, and slept most of sunday. When i did wake up, I went down the the shop to try and get me a job. Spoke to the boss who told me that he'd check with the person in charge of the rota. "Fair enough" I thought and came home. Didn't do anything for the rest of sunday. Must have watched films or something.
Monday came and i waited for a call from the boss. non came, so when mah mum came home I drove to the shop and he wasnt in.
Went down on tuesday and guess what? he wasn't in. Grrrr.... So i spoke to the woman in charge of rota, who told me that she couldn't do anything till she had spoken to the boss and she also said that the boss had not spoken to her! Hmmm.... I was well chuffed by this point.
Anyhoo yesterday i went and the boss was their an i pretty much said u gonna give me shifts now or not?
He said ok, an we went through to the office to sort out shifts. There were only 3 a week, at least for the time being. Got given Thursday afternoons 12-6. Thats not bad, but the other two are just plain evil! got saturday and sunday mornings: 6AM to midday! great fun!
Did my first shift today. Wasn't too bad though. just getting to grips again with the tills and putting stock out.
Was reading the lyrics to "Wooly Bully" by Sam The Sham And The Pharaoh's (on Full Metal Jacket) and was wondering what "L-seven" meant. Anyone who can shed light on this lemme know. Cheers. Anyhoo heres the lyrics for it:
Wooly Bully - Sam The Sham And The Pharaoh's:
Uno, dos,
one, two, tres, quatro.
Matty told Hatty about a thing she saw.
Had two big horns and a wooly jaw.
Wooly bully, wooly bully.
Wooly bully, wooly bully, wooly bully.
Hatty told Matty: "Let's don't take no chance.
Let's not be 'L-seven', come and learn to dance."
Wooly bully, wooly bully.
Wooly bully, wooly bully, wooly bully.
Matty told Hatty: "That's the thing to do.
Get you someone really to pull the wool with you."
Wooly bully, wooly bully.
Wooly bully, wooly bully, wooly bully.
Speaking of lyrics, here is the lyrics for an equily cool song (also off Full Metal Jacket - despite not being on the official soundtrack as it never made it through copyrighting so something)
Paint It, Black - Rolling Stones:
" I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colours anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love, both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a newborn baby it just happens ev'ryday
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not forsee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
Hmm, hmm, hmm...
I wanna see it painted, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun, blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
Yeah
Hmm, hmm, hmm..."
Anyhoo, I'm missing Emily lots today. I think it's because I am tired and have only had 7 smokes since saturday. Thats how many I used to smoke in one day back up till friday, so I'm feeling pretty accomplished right now :o) They recon that 28 days is the magic number. That is to say that after 28 days, you'll no longer be addicted. Only another 26 to go! Fun! Sounds about right though to be honest. Monday will be our 4 month anniversary. Thats scarily long for me! Thats 121 days!
She asked her parents if I could stay for a few days but they said no. it's not my place to ask why 'cos it is their house and everything. Will probably just go down for the day instead. That's better than nothing.
Anyhoo peeps, Pizza calls
"Be Excellent To Each Other"

Hey.
Nothing major has happened recently. quit my job at the Castle cos the boss said that if i wasnt going to work Freshers week, then i wasnt worth anything to the company, so I thought kind of decided that I didn't really want to work for a company that doesn't value it's staff.
Went to a comedy club type thing tonight. that was great cos it was really funny. had a few bevvies and am a wee bit drunkered now :oP hehe. best way apparently.
Gonna go cook me some noodles now. Hmmm... :o)
Leave me a message if u get this far. I know it's lame but no one ever leaves me a message, and i'm bored too of hearing me speak.
Cya later

Hey,
Went to Emily's for the week, hence no entries. Went down on one of those new fangled Virgin trains and plonked my fat ass down in a 1st class seat. thought the ticket feller would have moved me bout nope. got offered complimentary sandwiches and tea but silly me said no. would have got a free lunch if i had! Doh! Nevermind, eh?
Had a great time at Ems, went round the castle and went to a pub when i got there. then went bowling on monday night. bust my hand up in those fucking balls but nevermind. not been bowling since like July so was cool, then we moved to a pool hall to shoot pool (odly enough) for an hour or so before goin back home. Tues we did bugger all, then went out at night to Zanzibar, the only club (i think) in Stafford. was cool, had a good time, cept about 15 of her m8s were there so i didnt really know anyone. had so little money i was on Vodka and cordials for £1.50 a shot at the end of the night. Had 5 lime and 3 blackcurrent i think. can't really remember too much of that night ;O) hehe. Wednesday we were meant to go to town but didnt cos it was too late by the time we got up so we watched TV the meal with her parents at night at a pub. that was nice. Had a gammon steak with 2 fried eggs and pineapple. Hmmm.... :O) . Thursday we went to see Shaun of the Dead. thats a cool film, made me laugh at bits. didnt really expect the sad bits though :oS but none the less it was a great film. I liked it when they find the girl in the garden (hehe) and the part where David got ripped appart. Blatent reference to Dawn of the Dead. The cinema was really long and high and had toilets actually in the screen (well not the actual screen but u know what i mean).
Friday we went to town cos Em had a job interview for bar work in some posh hotel in Stafford and i took her to a pub for a late lunch at 3 Got the train back later than planned so i could stay an extra hour and so i didnt have to change at Crewe (couldnt be arsed). Got a 40 minute wait in Wigan so went to the pub and watched the prematch build up before the Leeds Superleague game on the big screen before my train to parbold.
Got mah m8 alex to pick me up from the station and we went to the pub after. Dont actually remember gettin home last night lol. just had a huge hangover this morning and my room was an absolute tip!!! :oS think it was because i was looking for Biker Boyz in mah bag and spread all my shit all over the show. do remember dropping 1/2 a pizza into a pair of jeans on my floor cos i was pissed and missed the box i'm usin for a makeshift table in my room till tomorrow. then went to sleep, dont know what time it was but i guess around 1 am - half past.
Got up at 3 today with the mother of all hangovers! downed a couple of aspirin and reflected on more weird dreams i had that night :oS dont know whats going on there. think its something to do w/ me sleeping on my own, instead of w/ Emily. tidied my room a bit then decided to c if my old HIFI still worked. it does, except it doesnt recognise CDs anymore so i took it to bits and found out that the thing that spins the discs doesnt spin anymore so i put it back together and decided to leave it. chatted to Em, ate my dinner then bummed around all night really. watched the Big Lebowski, which i got for next to nothing from a rental shop in Stafford, then decided to make this entry.
Anyhoo, gonna go now cos i'm shattered and not even started packing to go back to uni tomorrow! fun job ahead of me there! Gotta leave here early to get there before the bikes is on BBC2 at 12.40.
Cya world

What would life be like if we had been true to ourselves about how we felt, rather than hiding the feeling deep within us and we had stood up for what we felt and told people how we felt about life and people in life?
I'd say, very much different. Even if it was just for the memories.....

Hey,
Hope you're all ok?
Not much has happened really in the last few days. been quite boring actually. I got frosted tips in my hair on tuesday and went to see the Wigan Warriors St Helens match, which was a draw but it was good. there was 2 fights, and Terry Newton was sin-binned but thats it. Also decided to get my ear pierced with a ring, like Rossi's when i get back to uni :o)
Today makes it exactly 2 months to the day since Emily and I first went on a date. Whoo!
Went to see my mum's aunt today which was really cool cos I've only seen her once since I got home. she took my brother and I to a pub called "Sir Tom Finney" and told us stories about how he was known only as a plummer, not a footballer, during the war and stuff. Had an all day breakfast, which was nice except for the sausages which were a bit maladjusted! but nevermind, eh? It was free food and I wasn't going to say no! After that my brother took us driving and we ended up in Blackpool. That was nice since I havn't been there for a long time! All the beaches were clean and the sea was blue! I was well impressed!
Anyhoo, Got back to her's and watched daytime TV till I was blue in the face and got really annoyed cos the Valentino Rossi interview was delayed. Only by 10 mins, mind, but I was still really annoyed that the fucking swimming ran over!
When that was over (it only lasted 10 mins!) we went home, taking her with us for dinner at our house. We had pasta for dinner then hired out "once upon a time in mexico". Watched the 1st hour of that, then went round to mah mate Alex's house. Had four bevvies then came home which leads us up until now. lol sorry!
Tomorrow I go down to Stafford to stay with Emily which will be cool. I can't wait. Get back on friday, hopefully to another match!
Anyhoo, written quite a bit more than I initially wanted to so am gonna say night now, since I gotta be up at 8 for trains and stuff

12:57 pm - Levellers Dream....
|
|
Hey world.
Had a really weird dream last night. I was in the local shop and saw the Headlights White Lines Black Tar Rivers Live DVD by the Levellers, and it said "For a totally unique experience". I don't know how I got it home. Must have nicked it or bought it or something. Anyhoo was watching it in bed and then I was actually at the concert :S Could hear all the best songs like Riverflow, Hope St. and Liberty (all actually on the video) when all of a sudden 5 people in harnesses attached to the roof by two bungee ropes started bouncing everywhere, then i got a go and then the band started talking to me 'cos i was going mental and smacking my head on the floor :os all very weird. Anyhoo, next thing it was just before the 2nd day, just before the start of the concert and the band had got most of the crowd to do a weird type of play. Don't know what it was about or anything about it, except everyone in the crowd was from mah halls. Then i woke up, needless to say a wee bit confuddled
Hmmm... ah well. the strange workings of mah mind strike again...
Ok, am off for a bath then to bum around for the rest of the day
Oh, and its 20 days to Kill Bill Vol. 2 is released :oD

hey world,
I'm so tired today, think it's cos i got up before midday. Eek. Don't want to be doing that often. Anyhoo. Not done much lately. Finished my writing report but that's not in for another 3 weeks or so but at least it's out of the way. Gotta finish writing up my practical report but only have to write the results and discussion sections then that'll be done. And finally.... have to write an essay and in 750 words summarize a chapter outta a text book. that'll b hard cos u hafta say why its of interest to psychologists and what experiments an stuff they talk about. its the size that's gonna be the bummer.
Anyhoo. done nothing today, 'cept play Caesar 3 on mah PC. thats about it.
*überyawn*
Am so tired now for some reason so methinks me is gonna say adios for now.

Heyho,
Got rudely awakend by my mum on the phone today, telling me that i had to go to Merchants to get my A Level certificates. whoo fun. i was still asleep on the phone to her this morning, and was still asleep when she got home, so was woken up again! grrr... well i suppose it was 2.30 but nevermind.
Got the certificates then came home through Southport for some reason (?!?!). Started writing up my practical report and basically changed the proposed report from past tence into future tense and saved it as the actual report. Thankfully I've only got to re-write the results section and do the discussion and them I'm done. So tired. I want to be reincarnated as a slothe, thats my ideal lifestyle. Also feel quite like a cigarette but thats not gonna happen yet. it'd be my first one of the day which is good for me!
Anyhoo, am tired and hungry so am off now.

yo. got a headache atm :o( ah well ill survive. am bored now. had a computing resit today (woo!) thort it went well... better than last time *dances*. think i got 6 xams next week tho :'o( but im not sure. hope to fuck i dont have any tomorrow.
erm... yeah,went the lakes again last week. spent a whole week "revisin" but was really just burning shit like plastic cricket bats w/ homemade flamethrowers made of cans of WD40 and a lighter.. heh cool man. fire rox!
decidied i wanna get a new bike frame just for the sake of it. am thinkin of gettin an Orange patriot w/ a fox vanilla coil RC shock, a santa cruz bullitt or a club roost DH8. they aint cheep tho. the patriot is £1200,for frame and shock. the Bullitt is £1200 for frame and shock, and the DH8 is only £699 for frame and shock. im just gonna bang all mah current shit from my present bike onto it. spent enuff dosh on that to go and spend it all again. will prolly have to buy a completely new drive system tho, cos mah chain is too small as i had to take a couple of linx out once as i snapped it. i ripped a chainring at the front (which is fuckin hard as its the small one, but its still bloody hard to rip metal! and my rear derailleur is kinda bent too. if i get the bullitt then i will need a new pair of forx too, which is anuva £500 so i doubt ill get that, but well c

When the outside temperature rises
And the meaning is oh so clear
One thousand and one yellow daffodils
Begin to dance in front of you - oh dear
Are they trying to tell you somethingYou're missing that one final screw
You're simply not in the pink my dear
To be honest you haven't got a clue
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened - happened
It finally happened - ooh oh
It finally happened - I'm slightly man
Oh dear
I'm one card short of a full deck
I'm not quite the shilling
One wave short of a shipwreck
I'm not my usual top billing
I'm coming down with a fever
I'm really out to sea
This kettle is boiling over
I think I'm a banana tree
Oh dear
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened - happened
It finally happened - uh huh
It finally happened - I'm slightly man - oh dear
I'm knitting with only one needle
Unraveling fast its true
I'm driving only three wheels these days
But my dear how about you
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happenedIt finally happened - oh yes
It finally happened
I'm slightly madJust very slightly mad
And there you have it

When online, i had a lil chat to my m8 who is in uni but has a scholarship with the marines. shit man! he gets paid 10k a yr to go to uni and when he leaves, he is automatically in the marines and on a salary of.... £32000 per year, with a starting rank of Captain!!! *is madly fucking jealous* Grrr... ah well.
