[Diary Entry: 7/7/05 - "We shall never forget"]
One must confess a strange thing in this here forum.
Not sure what. But it's somewhere in my head. Hmmm. Life. Tis odd. Finally, I have achieved almost perfect happiness in EVERY section of my life, bar one, obviously. Damn &*)_(^&*^*(*%^%*&^*^)*&)()()(&*(^%^%@: girls. I'm driving, I'm very social, I'm happy, I'm doing well at college, my family is happy, I'm even able to do some exercise. To put it other terms, things couldn't be much better. Oddly, the relationships section isn't bothering me at the moment. I'm feeling completely, what's the word............ relaxed about it. I couldn't give a toss at the moment. I like a particular lass kinda, but if she was with anyone, it wouldn't be the end of the world. I couldn't give a monkeys.
Now, plans for the weekend....
* Drunkeness - CHECK
* Tiredness - CHECK
* Work - Nah
Someone back me up.
Is the 'pill' more effective than a rubber?

Need to check with the lass upstaires to see what's the what with her next yr, but I could possibly secure this flat for ya... Hopefully depending what misses upstaires is doing, hopefully I'll be looking to move back up there. (Reasons to be explained on msn ;) )

I hate trying to meet women in nightclubs. I like to talk to women to get to know them that way, rather than just physical appearance. And that's almost impossible in nightclubs.

Man that's a b####! Where did you have it stored?

Good luck man

I think so, but play don't seem to stock the last couple of individual dvds. So I might need box sets to complete the set. Plus if I buy each box set as it comes out there'd be less financial pressure from me wanting to collect it all yesterday.
I've been thinking about moving to a nearby town town until september. Rent looks cheap (from £35 a week), and I could play in the summer pool league with my current team.
The only problem is that I know I'd end up with a crap dead-end job for months.
Solskjaer - women in clubs aren't necessarily mongs. Nightclubs, I mean. Same goes for most hobby/interest-type clubs.

Yesterday found out my £200 bike was stolen. I hate people, I really do. All I want is for the corrupt, self serving bell-ends to leave me alone. Is that really so much to ask?
I know I've just suggested Solskjaer not make generalisations about people, but I've just had my great expensive bike nicked. So it's special circumstances.
People suck.
:^( [ (c) ;^) ]
Last-time I went to a Football Club, I was right... ;)
(Don't get many "inteligent" women there, y'know! ;D )
Yes, I'll get over it in-time. Don't worry! I know how to "let go" - I've done it several times before (and not just with potential relationships). It's just gonna take time. It only happened last Friday, remember.
Tommorow's still another day.
And then, there's next-week. Next-month... Next-YEAR.... And who knows where I'll be in another decade, eh.... :)

Solskjaer, mate, you have got to get past this stage. I liked someone for a couple of years, and whenever I saw her I was thinking, "Hmmm, what has she gone through" or "how can I help her". In truth, no one, (especially women) can keep a mood forever - but trust me, it's less to do with you than you think. Please, you have to move on.

You know, clubs (as in bars, drink etc) are most of the time filled with people who are just taking a break from their proactive life; they could be a full time student, for example. I can assure you that they are inteeligent (at least before th alcohol kicks in).
Secondly, clubs of the hobby sort attract the same, like minded people - it would be pretty hard not to get along with someone whbo shares the same interests as you, in a relaxed place doing the things you enjoy. And yeah you're right - waaaaaayyyy too fussy.
If I fail it this time, it'll be because of speeding - I just know it. I'll now have to do reversing into parking bays for my test, but, that seems a lot simpler than I did first think.
Roll on 7th April!
I would keep trying for a Cancellation, but, I'm still short of practice near this test centre and my instructor will be "unavailable" for the last week of the month. However, I still might give it a try. My mate's sister's had her second test today [I wonder how she did...] and she only got the cancellation over the weekend - days after losing one for the week before.
What have I really got to lose besides another £40?!... :)
Worst part is, I'm pretty sure she DOES like me - still. She gave me a rather "cold" reception when I saw her on Monday (not that I was any better or anything...), but I can still see it in her.
I reckon she is just 'messed-up' though. Maybe something happened to her when she was younger; perhaps she's like the average young lady "boxed-away" by her super-rich father... I don't know, but she can't be quite-alright.
Anyway, that's all I'm gonna say on the matter (it's better for me, that way). As for going to Clubs and that, it's unlikely it'd work for me. They're not my kind of place; they certainly AREN'T my kind of women there! You see, in a girlfriend, I want someone who can do more than just the average `5-minutes-of-fun´ (no offence to you and yours, Cooky). I want someone with, at least, HALF-a-brain. I... am just way-too-fussy about these things!
But, at least I think things through - unlike my boss at work...
You see, instead of even advertising for the ONE-and-only man we need (to work in the yard), he'd rather go about solving this problem by bringing in new delivery drivers, shop-workers, and other people in places where we are not in need.
Worst of all, he's brining-in people to do half of our jobs. While it may sound like it'll make our job easier, it won't, in-time. I mean, with them doing that, only so-many customers to serve at one time, and so-much of stock to be replenished before you're pushing-it, with too-many yardsmen, we're gonna have somewhat of a "problem" on our hands...
He hates it when we stand or wonder around with nothing to do - yet, give it a few months, and that'll be ALL we have to do in our job, without doing The Rediculous (eg. counting every stone on the ground or something...)
And that makes me glad I plan on leaving this Summer! :D
What's more, 2-or-3 others are also leaving, too.
Summer just cannot come fast-enough. :(

lol, indeed, Channel 5 just porno films because they needed the money, and basically Channel 5 used porn to get money.
Thing is, It worked, Seems like they dont really need that money no more :^)

Yeeeer! Cos constantly talking about something we barely know anything about is such a worthwhile topic. Once it's been released and play tested, then I think a useful debate can take place, but constantly making a new post everytime someone at Nintendo blows their nose is quite beyond a joke!

Job change, industry job, and around double if not more pay! And the comp ain't off the back of a truck, but it shouldn't be costin' me owt!

Sounds....... interesting! What's the diff between the boxsets and just buying them as they are now? Just in fancy boxes that take up less space?
