aaagh, i havent posted here for 2 weeks now! ach!
I feel so neglective…pooo.
Anyways, I started my new job the day after my last post
I now work at Initial CityLink, off Newport Road in Cardiff.
I’m whats called a ‘CSO’, a Customer Service Operator.
Basically, I answer phone calls, do a lot of filing, faxing, and things, tracing parcels etc.
It’s great, it takes brains, so it suits me better than any shitty restaurant, shop, bar job that i have had in the past. I feel intellectually stimulated throughout my day..which is great
Inspires me..
I have been having problems with my cable modem recently, it was off for 52 hours between Thursday morning and Saturday afternoon : which really did piss me off a lot.
Not Happy.
I found a brilliant site today
Greeeeat
Icepick.com, the whole house is totally wired..everything that goes into the bin is barcode scanned and displayed on the site, weird things like that! I wanna do that!! wooo
System of a down at Nottingham is tommorrow! WOOOOOOOOOOO..I’m soooo excited! The concert starts at 7:30…we’re getting into Nottingham at 12:50pm..so, we have a few hours to explore the city, where I have never been before. Should be a great day out
Just hope its, hot..BBC Weather is saying its going to be “Max: 12/53
Min: 8/46” so…hmm, bearable.
Gonna make a cd or two tonight..cos we leave Cardiff at 7:45am..a 5 hour journey..with a 40 minute bus change/stop off at Birmingham.
Watching the Brazilian Grand Prix right now..seems hot enough there!
Had lotsa eggs today..dunno what for..o well.

“Scott Rawlins, from Heathrow, was the first person in the UK officially to buy an Xbox.
He was presented with his Xbox by Virgin boss Richard Branson, who loaned him his limousine in which to travel home. “

i never usually buy NME magazine, but I did this week..and i found, possibly the best quote ever in an article
Marilyn Manson on pop idols’ Will Gates
“You think hes going to win by default because he’s handicapped (his stutter) and people will feel sorry for him? Well I can assure you that I’m mentally handicapped in some ways from years of drugs and alcohol, so i deserve my fair shot”
I laughed for hours over that…oh mazza, we love you

hey there..sorry i havent updated in a while, been a busy week.
Worked up at the Celtic Manon on Monday and Tuesday…but decided it was an absolutely shit job, so I quit on Wednesday…later that afternoon I was offered a new job
yay..I’m finally going to work in an office, YAY..sitting at a desk all day answering telephone calls and farting around with computers, sounds like my dream job
I love office work by the way, so dont critisise me
grrr..
Today I went into town with Chris and Emma..bla bla..did the usual, bought a few things..went home.
Was reading something on BBC News online just now that has made me quite mad…read this..
“But the suggestion of routine arming of police was criticised by Rex Makin, a solicitor representing the family of Andrew Kernan from Liverpool.
He was shot dead by police in July 2001 as he brandished a Samurai sword.”
notice how he was shot because he brandished a Samurai sword..
it went on to say
“If they can shoot Andrew Kernan then lord knows who else some trigger-happy policeman will shoot.”
What the fuck?! What is this family/solicitor trying to prove? That its perfectly normal to run around with a 30 inch fucking sword? my god..that makes me mad..but also makes me laugh at the same time, to think that people can win stupid cases like that.
I saw that story on the news actually, the guy (Andrew Kernan) walked into a very busy public area and pulled out this sword…just a few months after an MP was killed in London with a similar weapon..what were the police supposed to do? “Calm down sir..put the huge fuck off blade down..”
yea rite..they made the right choice shooting the bastard. Feel free to MAIL ME with your thoughts on this..I’ll publish every comment.

Going to live? Probably not, because you’re AFI! You have a fascination with death.. or maybe it’s an obsession. Either way, you’re passionate for your work and you’re full of emotions that still are uncharted by psychologists, you’re deep and you think in a rather abstract way. So which BAND are YOU? |

oh yea, thats another thing..I start work at the Celtic Manor Hotel on Monday evening

“no hesitation, no delay, you come on just like Special K”
Well, I’ve had a good few days
Thursday was great, I had my first ever piercing, aah!

I had my lip done at Blue Banana :o) And best thing was, it did hurt at all..and it still doesnt, 2 days later
Made me so happy, for once.
Friday…11:20am, dental appointment..and guess what, I had my braces off!!!!!! OMG!!! AFTER 3 YEARS, I finally had them off! This was like, the best day of my life..because I hated them so much..I really really did..
But now, they’re gone!
:D
<--smiles all around :)
Walking back from the dentist then, I went into my old place of work, that I quit 2 weeks ago..to get my final paycheque..I had only worked one day, so was expecing a stupid £15 cheque or something..I walked outta the store, looked at the cheque..and it was made out for “Two Hundred and Fifty Two Pounds and Fifteen Pence —Only” I was like, WTF?! OMG! Things are finally going right for me!!
I didnt take one day of paid holiday in the year I was there, so they paid it all to me in one lump sum
this absolutely rules :):):):) So now, i’m not skinted nemore…well, when the cheque clears (Tuesday/Wednesday).
I was supposed to go to the cinema friday evening with Sara and Kate..but that didnt happen because nobody could get hold of sara..grr.
So, I went to the bluemoon club anyways..
I was tipsy when I got there, but..not as bad as last week..i was concious :p
The night was quite crap really..but, gladly..only one bad thing happened all night
as opposed to like, 1,000 on any normal friday night there
Saturdays are better there I find..last Saturday I went to there, it was quite quiet, more cosy..and I got even more fucked than usual
lol. Bla..newho, last nite me and Alex got thrown out at about 2:20 or something for going topless
LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL, I mean, WHAT?! It was fucking boiling down on the moshpit/dancefloor :):) teeheehee
Went into BurgerKing to get food..then started the long trek home, on foot, as usual.
U know what..u really do appreciate the comfortableness of shoes after you’ve donated your shoes to a mates girlfriend and walked 3/4 of a mile down Newport Road with just socks on..u really do not know how comfortable a pair of vans are after that
Anyways..got in..went to bed
This morning, woke up..feeling quite good
and even though the one event of last nite is still getting at me (:|) I feel really happy still..i’m gonna be really stupid now and text Soraya, lol..that’ll get me down, I’m sure
lol.
Oh yeah, thats another thing..I’ve been told i’m narcissistic and arrogant..i just call it liking you..you know who you are.
Gotta go into town for 3:30..meeting Gareth..who’s meeting some girl..hopefully she has friends
( not that I will get newhere, but..u know..its always fun to look
)
Going to the Cinema then at 5 with Jo…I HAVE to see “A Beautiful Mind”..the one with Russel Crow..it looks so great..:) Anyways..will tell you if it lives up to my expectations when I get back later
Cyas..
