I cannot write poems.
Sometimes I don't even understand
the ones that I read.
But I'm writing this one now
instead of that other thing I'm
supposed to do. Just because.
I cannot write poems,
yet they let me pour out
my emotions, instead of letting
them rot inside.
Is there even a rhythm to this?
I cannot write poems,
but I continue to do so, so that
every day I can smile and laugh,
while inside...
I cannot write poems, but I
continue to do so, so there's
something left of me if I
end it all.
I cannot write poems.

You know that facebook program Owned where you can 'buy' people?

Well it would appear that there are two guys fighting over me on there:
Karl buys me for $805
William buys me for $885
Karl buys me for 973
William buys me for $1,070
Karl buys me for £1,230
William now owns me at $1,414

Should I expect another bid from Karl?
XD

Man, that program is good for the ego.

Free junk

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
Anyone want free book/cd/dvds/games etc. ?

I signed up to bookmooch.com a few weeks ago. (My page here - request something!) So far I have already received 9 books, and there are another 12 on the way! I love that site.

Today I found another site: Swapshop.co.uk (My page here- less stuff because I only just created the account lol). It seems to work on the same principle as bookmooch.

You put up stuff to swap, someone request it, you accept, you get points, you send the item(s) off (you have to pay postage yourself, but that's it) and then with those points you then request other stuff.

So I thought I'd share with you all, because everyone loves free stuff. ;)

P.s. I think the swapshop site is just for UK residents, but I found a US one a little while ago... if I find it again, I'll post the link. (or if someone else knows one post it in a comment!)

1. Think of the first word that comes to mind when you think of me.

2. Go to Google Images and search for that word.

3. Reply to this post with one of the pictures on the first page of results (don't tell me the word).

(The html for images is here.)



4. Put this in your own journal so that I can do the same.

Last day

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
Was today. I was ill. Didn't go in. I'm also having one of my 'down' days. They just randomly appear. I also don't think that anyone even noticed that I wasn't there. There are pics all over facebook. They're all wearing the new leavers hoodies as well. I'll have to pick mine up some time.

I have a serious addiction to the internet.

9am - 9pm: I was on the internet
9pm - 10pm: Watched House
10pm - now: On the internet

I do nothing else.

Tommorow is my last day. Tommorow is my last day. Tommorow is my last day!

Well...technically it's supposed to be Friday, but there's the leaver's mass on that day and I never show up to mass unless a friend of mine specifically begs asks me to come along. Also, I have to go in on the days that I have exams. But I have no more lessons!
And my next exam isn't until 5th June! =D

Carl is on cloud nine right now. Also, he has pr0n - and that just makes his day even better.

Post before bed

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
It's 23:16 and I'm going to bed. What's wrong with me? I never go to bed before 01:00. :p

Anyway, all that stuff yesterday got sorted out. It's all good now.
I have 3 essays due for ethics (well...they're actually all late) tommorow, 1 is almost done. Haven't started the other two. Ethics is 3rd, I have a free second, but I'm supposed to go see the counsellor then. It's my last session with her and all that.
Maybe I'll just say I've lost my pendrive somewhere. I'm known for misplacing things anyway.

Psychology exam friday. Have I revised? No.
Although it is a resit, and ergo not as important as the A2 exams. If I do worse, I just keep the last grade and that was what I needed for uni anyway. :)
It's slightly pointless to make entire classes resit a paper just so they can try and get a few more marks. >_>

I could be finishing those essays instead of panicking, and then needing to go read fanfic to calm me down.
/pathetic excuse

Oh well, in 1 month (One?! YAGH!) all exams will be over. In two weeks I don't even need to come into school anymore. (hell yes)

Night all.

Short story:
Mam was going out with Colin. (On and off thing for quite a few years now)
He had a Wii that he wanted to sell.
Said we'd take it off him in 3 installments off £50.
Paid 1 installment.
He and mam not going out anymore.
Wants Wii back.
Mam said she'd give him the Wii, if he gave her the £50 back.
He waited until mam was at work to ring me and say he was coming over for the Wii.
I phone mam. Mam says don't give it to him because he probably wont give the money back.
Bangs on door for a while.
Goes away.
He phones my mam and tells her that she has 7 hours to give the Wii back or he phones the police.

Lovely.
Also, there's a delivery coming in 20 mins. and I have to make sure he doesn't notice so that he doesn't try to come inside while their bringing stuff in. lol (he lives down the road)

Mini RL Update

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
Speaking exams start Thursday. Mine is at 1:57(wtf?) PM on Friday. Awesome. I get more revision time. =D
Staying off on thursday as well to study so that I can have an excuse to mooch about at home so that I can do some last minute revision.
I'm going to miss the mock psychology test on thursday afternoon though. But I've seen the teacher about that and I'm doing it next week.

Then I have about 2 weeks before my next exam. Sweeeeet!

Anyway, I have to go eat now, maybe chill for a bit and read something, then go and cram my head full of french shit.

Aurevoir!

Your Score: Dr. Gregory House


75% Eccentricity, 60% Confidence, 15% Kindness




Congratulations, you're the man himself, Dr. Gregory House! You're quite strange, and usually do your own thing regardless of what anyone else thinks. This is partially because a person with an ego as large as yours could not care less what anyone else thinks or feels about anything. Unless, of course, they're your patient and they're dying--but only if they're dying of something interesting! You're a definite asshole to most other people, but at least you know how to be one in style, with an awesome wit, comfortable sneakers, and a never ending variety of facial expressions.
