New Adventures 7th - 13th

I'm sure you all know that today is Thursday, which means 'New Adventures' day, so check it out. It's fairly boring and a chunk of it is a little depressing but have some fun.

Friday

Friday started out well, I decided to buy myself a cigar. I went over to Canal Walk, and got myself a nice one, and decided to enjoy it later that evening at Justin's new flat. We went over to his place and hung out with Pierre, Kelly, Donovan, Gareth, Tessa, Matt, Mike and of course Justin. Another couple named Ryan and Michelle came too, but they had to leave early, which is never fun.

We had a great time playing FIFA and generally just saying silly things. I'm not sure how it started but Justin, Gareth and Donovan love mixing metaphors for fun. My favorites are "Don't put your glass house in front of your wagon" and "Beggars can't count their unhatched eggs with a stone". Matt wore a fairly elaborate shirt sporting a rather amusing chinese dragon, and we all had a bit of a laugh. I joked that I wouldn't go to Tessa's wedding if she didn't buy Matt some new clothes. To be fair, I don't actually think the dragon shirt is awful, but I do think Matt needs new clothes. After a great evening we headed home at around 1 or so.


Saturday

Saturday started pretty well, I said my prayer about having a spirit of thanksgiving, and then headed over to Gareth's house. After seeing Arsenal beat Man U 2 - 1, which was suprising, we decided that we wanted to go out and play some pool. We organised to go thorugh to a pub called Buckley's and have a game or two.

I got home and my system had crashed, and to be honest, the rest of the weekend took a major tumble after that. I had an average time playing pool, but I was very miserable on Sunday evening, and Monday morning. Bleh.

Sunday

So I'm already feeling miserable and my mom comes over to me and says "Maybe this is an example of where your treasure lies." That didn't make anything better. I know the Word says "Where your treasure lies, there your heart will be also" but I don't think that the fact that my PC is screwed and I'm pissed off means that my heart lies in worldly posessions. My mom really has great timing hey...


Monday

Took my car into the shop to get it repaired, and the lady says "Oh we didn't need the whole car today". So I'd arranged to get a lift with Gareth for nothing. It seems that everything is going against me.


Tuesday

Things improved a substantial amount on Tuesday. I decided that it was time I actually stopped feeling like a victim and became pro active of controlling my emotions and stopped controlling things around me. I decided to feel better about everything and to just have some fun. Tuesday night I went over to Justin's flat to play FIFA with Gareth, Mike and of course Justin. We stayed up until around 3, and then hit the sack.

I also had my last evening of my course on Revalation, which was awesome.


Wednesday

Wednesday was a pretty mellow day. I didn't go into the studio at all, and just hung out with friends. I went in to the studio in the evening though to be there for Take The State's practice, and to chat to Mel. After band practice, we went through to Justin's place to hang out a little. We were going to watch some 'Flight of the Concordes' but decided to watch some Eddie Izzard first. Turned out to be the wrong decision because the Eddie Izzard wasn't great. To be honest, he's usually super funny, but this one wasn't. Oh well, such is life.

Thursday

Didn't sleep well so I only actually got to sleep quite late and then only woke up at 13:30. My least favorite people were going to be in at the studio, so I decided it was best if I went in later. I headed off to the traffic department to renew my car license and then made myself a great mini tuna mayo salad. It's actually my staple lunch these days...

Then I finished tying my blog for the day.
