Fallout

I went on Fallout 3 earlier, a classic game from 2007. Not been on it for months before now, and I've missed it lot to be honest...With it's vast playing area, and almost endless number of options, weapons, collectibles and missions, it really was literally amazing, in just about every way!

Bye bye bed

My trusty old bunk-bed collapsed the other day! Fun times. We're waiting on the delivery of new ones now, until then though I've got to sleep on the floor!

Fuckers.

Just got my rejection letter from Homebase...Lovely. This week just gets better ;)

Moved on

I've noticed that recently, I'm losing touch with people I once cared about. Things are changing and I'm beginning to think I'm getting alienated by people. It's partly my own fault though...I'm wrapped up in my own world where really only a few things matter to me, and they don't include friends, as harsh as that may seem.

Right now, I've got Megan to look after, every night I'll talk to her for a long time, at least 2 hours a day, which is needed really seeing as I don't get to see her very often. I'm looking for a way to both fix and sell the Audi too, it's more difficult than it may seem, I don't know how much it's all going to cost. And the job world is taking over my life. So recently on an average day it'll be "Wake up, go school, come home, eat lunch, fill in job application forms, check auto trader, play Xbox, talk to Megan, go sleep." It's the same every night, and I don't mind either.

But I am losing touch with so many people. It's almost like I don't have any friends any more. I've not talked with any friends properly in a long time. Not even those who once were so close. It's frustrating really. Not just because I've got no time, but also because it seems none even makes effort with me any more. It could be because of recent events, but either way, it seems a bit unfair. Like I'm not worth being a friend any more.

Then again, maybe this is just what happens when you get older? Maybe you just move on, grow up and get on with your life. Who knows really. I don't suppose it really matters in the end, as long as everyone is happy.

Exam

My ICT test is this afternoon. The first of 7! I'm not worried...But I am at the same time. After failing it twice I guess I'm just not all to confident on my abilities really. Even if I do, it's not like it matters. It's only an exam, and I've got college next year.

People.

Some people are douches. That is all.

THIS WEEK...

...has been a busy one, and I've not really had much time to a.) myself and b.) my Blog!

Well, I've done a fair bit on the job front...applied to a few places i.e. Homebase, Halfords and The Carphone Warehouse! I've also got an application form for Tescos, and I need to hand my CV in for Bright House.

I've been looking at cheap cars too...just in case. I think I'd like a Fiat Punto, but apparently the best version is the HGT. We'll see how things go in that sense. I do like Punto's though, they're very...nice I'd say.

I also, VERY nearly broke my phone. I dropped it in a cup of tea. Not a smart idea. It didn't turn on for about a day, had to leave it be for about 2 days to dry out before hand. But a simple tip: If you drop your phone in tea, wash it out/dab it with a wet sponge, then leave it to dry for a while. When it's completely dry you can try to use it. It should work.

Other things have happened, but things have been such a blur, I can barely remember any of it to be honest. Ah well. Loved the weekend though ;)

Job Please!

I NEED a job, right now. Mum said that if I can afford to pay for the work that needs doing to the Audi, I'll get it...That's great but I can't afford the car until I get a job!

I mentioned this to Michael...He said he was also interested in the car...As a part-exchange for his Fiat Punto...Though I'm not sure if that's a good deal. We'll see what happens won't we. Everything depends on whether I can find a job. Things will be so much easier if I had a car! Audi or Fiat.

Elections

Well, whilst I've been wrapped up playing GTA IV and immersing myself in my own little world, the world of politics has been changing. Vastly.

Last night it appeared that the country prefers the Conservatives altogether. That's fair enough but it could mean massive changes. Right now however, we're experiencing a 'Hung-Parliament'. That means that the party with the most votes can attempt to make a complete party with the Liberal Democrats.

Though the same could happen with Labour and the Lib-Dems.

We could have a conservative government, however Mansfield, and Nottinghamshire has a mainly Labour. It's a shame the Lib-Dems didn't do as well as hoped, but in the end I suppose things could be worse.

I'm just glad Labour is still in Mansfield to be honest...
