Yet another 3 hour gap...

Well I'm sat at College trying to think of what to do. My last lessons (English Language) finished at 11 and my next (ICT) starts at 3. I am hoping to go to something about getting involved in the college magazine before that although I don't know if I will as I don't know anyone else who is going. I did manage to volunteer myself to be my tutors joint Student council rep which should be fun :P.

I have got some homework to do but not sure if that's going to take me an hour. I walked randomly to a nearby shop when I didn't actually want anything in particular earlier and I had planned to take a book and go to a local park but I think it's still raining so that isn't the best of ideas. I do have a few thoughts to keep me from getting too miserable though. It's nearly the weekend which not only means a bit more of a lie in but that it is the weekend of StarConUk, at which Chris Rankin and now also Jamie Yeates, both of Harry Potter stardom are supposed to be appearing and that make me excited. I know what I want to say to Chris but whether I will ore not is a different matter. I have planned to ask if he has finished filming his parts in OOTP and whether he managed to get his 'head boy' badge in a scene somewhere like he said he would (jokingly I think lol) on PotterCast. I also want to say that I was one of the mad English people to go on Skype at 3am to speak to him on the PotterCast call in show. He can't call me mad though as he was up too :P

On another note, the gig I was supposed to be going to this week (The View) was cancelled due to illness I believe. I think it is going to be rescheduled but I don't yet know when.

The College seem to have banned Myspace for some reason which is unfair and also I got a warning through email from them saying I had been visiting too many banned sites but I haven't actually been trying to visit anything that has any real reason for being banned, I was just going to sites that I usually go to and mostly finding they had forbidden words on them but you are going to find that with a lot of internet forums.

That's about all I can really think to write about now although it has only taken me about 5 minutes so I still have rather a lot of time to wait but hey... :-)

Ahoy there

Ahoy my pirate friends. It's 'talk like a pirate day' savvy? and I have only realised this evening which considering my slight interest with POTC is a shame as an excuse to quote it is mostly always welcome ;P

Yo ho, yo ho a pirates life for me...

Driving Lessons

My dad has offered to get me some driving lessons as I am approaching 17 but that isn't what this blog is going to be about as I went to the cinema yesterday to see the film - Driving Lessons. My main reason for going was because it stars to people from Harry Potter which if you're a regualr reader of my blog will know that I am a fan of. These two people are Rupert Grint and Julie Walters. For this same reason I went to the premiere of it the other week to try and get their auotgraphs and was told by people coming out of it that it was very funny. I did see the humorous moments in it but wouldn't really class it as a comedy as such. It was however a good film. Ben, the character that Rupert plays, is I felt very similar to Ron so I would like to see him in something completely different but it was an enjoyable trip out anyhow.

College life

Just a quick update from me becaue having started college means a few early mornings and i'm also rather tired from a busy and long day yesterday because decided to go off to Balham (The Bedford) to see Riccardi play, they were great and it was worth going I think but it did mean being tired this morning so I missed my train and was a little late to I.C.T. 'm sort of enjoying it so far (I have liked my English Language and Media lessons) but I was a bit annoyed that they messed my timetable/courses up so that I'm not currently doing what I originally chose to do but I will have to see if I enjoy everything this week and decide then whether I want to change a few things or not.

Prob will post more on that somewhen, hopefully, when I get a chance.

Ps. My dad booked up for me, him and my mum to go and see Ed Byrne which I think should be quite good and also I am hoping to go and see The View next week somewhen so it's still not all work and no play. ;P :-)

Laptop

My dad kindly bought me a laptop today (as a present for doing well in my exams) although being the indecisive person that I am, am now wondering whethter I chose the right one. Oh and I had my hair cut today although I'm not sure if I like it yet or now ;P ...

My last week of freedom from education, for now anyway...

I did have a long post but then had trouble posting it and lost it so I will try and get round to re-typing it tomorrow but if you want to get the general scaled down gist of it then you can see my latest 2 blogs on my Myspace page - www.myspace.com/mysecretsinside. :-)

Update on my life - oh yes it's just so interesting.

(Copied from my Myspace for those who don't read that and are feeling all left out, I will get round to a blogging properly on here somewhen, hopefully...)

OK well maybe it's not that interesting but hey I'm going to post about it anyway, well this is my blog after all and I was asked what gigs I have planned to go to so one person might read this at least .

So gigs that I will hopefully be going to in the next few months - The Storys, Paolo Nutini, The View (I would like someone to come with me to that so I don't have to go with my dad so if you live near me and might be interested in coming, let me know), The Feeling. I haven't actually booked The Feeling tickets yet but hopefully will do tomorrow, also I may be booking to see Paolo in December as well as October if I can decided which venue I want to go to. (If anyone has been to both Shepherds Bush Empire and Brighton Dome then let me know which you thought was better, I have one opinion so far so would like a few more and may then go with the majority if I can't decide myself lol).
Other things I've got coming up that aren't gigs are maybe going to Star Con in London to try and meet Chris Rankin (aka Percy Weasley from HP), going to Collectormania10 if anyone I want to meet is announced. If I do go to that I may well be in costume - either a HP robe or as Captain Jack Sparrow. I bought a Pirate hat today which is rather cool and made me quite excited, probably more excited than it usually normal which shows what a sad life I lead otherwise but hey. I also have a shirt that might do but need to find the rest of the costume sometime. Also this month I'm hoping to get to London for the premiere of Driving Lessons to meet Rupert Grint and Julie Walters, who also happen to be in HP, obsessed... moi? Only a little.
Hmmm, anything I've not mentioned, well there is that thing of starting College, and a meal celebrating a birthday but I don't think there is anything else planned for just yet. I am thinking of going to RingCon next year which would mean an opportunity to wear my LOTR costume again or I might wear that to G-Mex in November actually depends if I got to Collectormania 10. I did want to go and see Muse and/or The Kooks but all the nearer venues have sold out so don't now when I'll get a chance.
Back to the present, today I went shopping and as well as getting excited about a Pirate hat, I bought some other new clothes. One of them is a top that I already have in a different colour that I think I now like better lol.
Anyway, I'm currently being shouted at to get off the computer and considering it is gone midnight, that is probably a good idea.
