Mature Whimpering... crap.

This week I will lose it over ITV, school returns and I do a Reggie Perrin, I cheapskate authors and find a nifty new blogger feature is just what the gym-man ordered.

In this iPlayer world, I expected after having missed Britain's Got Talent to go on the ITV catch-up iplayer (originally named ITV Player) and find a nice, well synced and coded site with pleasing looks. I couldn't have been more wrong. It is the epitome of all things shit, serious issues here folks. Mainly with the aesthetics, but there is also the useless buffer system. It just doesn't stream at a reasonable quality-certainly not a patch on the BBC's flagship. But this is very dull, and although it took me 2 hours of frustration to watch a below average episode of BGT that lasted 45 mins I shall stop now, saving you a convergence of irritation- It was 6 days ago and still drives me mental- Herbal Twining's quick!!!!

School returned and god I haven't missed much. My friends appear to have fully conformed now to the teenage stereotype-talking nothing other than sex, drugs, music and myspace. Perfectly fine in small doses but my word I cannot take it, it seems that I cannot have a civil conversation with anyone. The question is, am I months behind in hormones or far maturer? Do I want to be either presently, about to enter college and the 'best days of my life'? NO.

Also having destroyed what monetary gain 2009 brought me with the slightly above average Stephenie Meyer 4some, I have resorted to fan-fiction. Very interesting, but they don't flow together as each author has differing characters and of course plot lines.

A nice feature this week is the new site by iMercer, iMercer Gym updated soely by my iPod Touch on my newest craze, get fit-once again years behind the status quo

Oliver did Duke of Edinburgh practice bronze today and finished at 12pm, 5 hours before I did-ouch. And I shrunk away from a party, afraid to go in-I think the maturity question is answered

A disgruntled and slightly depressed Farewell...

Couple of online pieces here for the general viewing

And some age of empires. Here is the new character, Aro, addressing the allies. LOL


Then a really weird iTunes glitch

Deep, rich apologies from the furthest pits of my ventricles.

Sorry folks, I posted mid-week, further magical adventures with moi next week-memory being the largest factor.

Until said thing spontaneously appears on this wonderful blogger, here is my dull, dull view of Twilight. No humour, but some ruddies as I was very sleepy.

Farewell:

Someone whack me around the face... have I lost my watch or something because I completely forgot about this

On tonights cast; Diving, apologies, dancing, twilight and a deceased member of the clan is remembered. Amongst others, but first... My woes of revision. The exams start formally with the dreaded ORAL on May 1st. If it's possible to soil oneself, shake in fear, throw up violently and blush like a beetroot- in the mind- then that is what my current state is. I cannot seem to buckle down and revise, mind you I've had a hell of a distraction.

Twilight saga became my love muffin the past two weeks. It began with Catherine Hardwicke's adaptation on the big screen coming to DVD and thusly TESCO>>mother's car>>granny's player>>Danny's working memory and convinced me to go off to boarders and with my own funds- not mother's- purchase the foursome. There was no special offer, my special birthday money was brutally massacred. But I couldn't wait. The drug that was the film had me running, blindly at the bookstore waving the Queen's face all over the shop and consquently the till lady- I didn't even stop for a cappuccino at starbucks (the connected store). Wait for the formal review to come, I shall wing it with the odd notation dotted around and post it tomorrow.

I went diving with my group for the first time in 5 weeks, possibly, and did it all right. I even took the mask off and with mind power stronger than an immovable fat man glued to a burger stand I swam 15 meters, then put it back and cleared. That is a milestone and a half my good sirs and sireens. A few days later we were in the Strictly Come Dancing Dance Competition. I danced with Laura Platt and can safely say that our 1.5 weeks of togetherness showed. The other 10 couples had 7 weeks together. Even so we triumphed and came a respectable half way. I have my trophy, collecting dust on a random bookshelf with juicy pride, as it should be.

For the next segment, perhaps it deserves the words conjured on that very day I found out. RIP fella!

So 3 weeks later I return

And this flavoursome, yet bitterly sour post shall be (regrettably I am certain) short, perhaps even minute as I have, sadly, a finite amount of time before I am whisked away to dance at Holy Cross does Strictly Come Dancing.

So what has happened since posts a-past? Literally LOADS. But the brain only has so much functionality when coffee is but the only thing keeping it bloody well ticking over. So in fairness and appeasing to my organs, I shall go slowly and add to this horrific and poshly circumstantial waffle.

I have just realised that 9 lines in and no feature on my present life, just status. See facebook for a better rendition of that! Which reminds me, on facebook I have re-opened the closed (firmly) door that is the All Hallows posse. Damn, but in all seriousness they are a blast. I just wish spotty, awkward and track-suited Mercer 3/4 years my junior would've picked up on this and wound his claws firmly into it's hide. God this post is filled with the most bizarre analogies (!)

Starting at the back-end, of the week is my reading of double cross by malorie blackman and in said thing the conclusion of the noughts & crosses trilogy (which has spawned a 4th book). T'was rather excellent actually, really easy to read an immersable treat, if a little heavy on prejudice of just about every nature in the first two.

I went with Simon's group diving and DID THE MASK THING EASILY. I CAN NOW OFFICIALLY DO ALL MASK SKILLS AND AM NOT A FAILURE!!!!!!!! This deserves a fanfare, and yes: boldness! SUCCESS

Of course there was the secret peek at apple 3.0 for the iPhone, which is thrilling and I cannot wait (mail in landscape, oOo) and I gave up tribal wars- too dull, amongst starting the twilight 5some. Yeah, so that's a summary and a half!

Good Evening (now I am the squishy organic bit of: 'murder on the dance-floor' ...)
