It's really disgusting outside right now - it's that sort of semi-thaw period where all the snow has turned into a dirty sludge and walking on sidewalks is a recipe for getting your shoes and pants disgusting. My car is absolutely filthy, by touching it you end up basically needing a shower. And the lines for car washes are backed up forever, and I'm not willing to use water outside, since I'll just freeze anyway. Add to that that I had the most stressful week ever, and I'm so ready for the weekend. But hey, I got an A- on my Criminology midterm, which is worth 50% of my mark.

Basically, Ivelliis, the National Hockey League just had the equivalent to the end of a transfer window. That's what me and Sir G are on about, since our local teams are deadly rivals.

Ahhh, like Smoggy's (Us, Boro), Geordies (Newcastle) and Mackam's (Sunderland).

Well done on the A- TM! I found out I got 87% on my IT exam, which is an A (the boundry for A* is something between 91% and 97%). With my coursework added on (70% of the GCSE is coursework, 30% is exam mark) I should be looking at an A*

...and my parents have promised me cash for A*'s... *grins*

I had my first driving lesson today. Good fun. [img]smile.gif[/img] Didn't even hit any other cars!

Who are you taking your lessons with? My first lesson, we didn't even stray from about a block radius from my house. In three years of driving, I've only ever crashed once - and that was into a parked car! [img]graemlins/uhoh1.gif[/img]

Driving is an interesting bit in life, just try not to murder the old lady cuz she goes 30 on a 55 ok?

Hello, all. I'm back at my parent's house for spring break, and looking to waste some time. of course, good Ol' IW was on the top of my list! How is everyone? (feel free to give me a brief synopsis of what you've all been into for the last, oh say, year.) Has Z made those "big changes" he was talking about, yet?

Today is a good day.

Just finished putting together a massive upgrade to my computer, and by putting together, I mean physically, all myself. I have no training or experience, and of course manuals are for sissies. [img]tongue.gif[/img] But I did it (even though I'm still fighting with my secondary hard drive and I don't have a cable for the floppy), and now Oblivion will run at an unreal clip.

And I've been watching the second season of Arrested Development on DVD. How they can cancel this show, I have no idea.

Get a bicycle. Less pollution, and you get a merry little bell. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
