My Mind on my Money. My Money on my Beer.

Entries in this blog

Hi!

Haven't blogged for like 6 months and there's not much activity in this section so figured I'd write a blog!   Not that I have much to say really! I've finished the academic part of my 2nd year of university, starting a five week placement as an assistant teacher in a secondary school in two weeks time, English department. Terrified but looking forward to finally getting some hands on experience in a classroom.   Still working in the Student's Union shop, but have also recently got a job in

Tattoo Part 2

So I got a no pic no proof response in my last blog to the tattoo - here's some pics to keep you going :P   These were taken whilst I was being stabbed repeatedly and praying for death.   WARNING: The following pictures have both my face and my boobies (I'm topless) in them. I take no responsibility if you either vomit and/or fall madly in love with me. Open at own risk. Viewer discretion advised.       NB: Glasses because I'm amazing. That and he said staring at the lights for an hour

First Tattoo

So I finally got my first tattoo done on Tuesday (3 days ago)!   I'm absolutely in love with it, and will post pics as soon as it's healed and looks non icky :P   Have to say that was one of the scariest experiences of my life and anyone who says getting a tattoo doesn't hurt is full of shizzle. I got mine under my right moob and it goes round and down my right side a little ways.   As for getting more, I do have a couple others that I've been keen on for quite some time, but will leave th

That Time I Played Runescape

Logged into Runescape today for the first time in 104 days. The first time I'd logged into RS since the release of the last Grandmaster Quest, having spent a while on RS07 after that.   I eventually got logged in (the website it self froze my laptop at first). I disconnected during the opening cinematic, then disconnected twice more before I actually got moving. I ran from Lumbridge to Falador, disconnecting four more times again.   I gave it thirty minutes then tried again, this time the ga

Coming Out Part 3

It's been a few months since I wrote my blogs on coming out (and did the actual coming out) to my parents. I generally tend to avoid going too personal on these things but since I got such support in the first two blogs I thought I'd post an update and reflect on them myself.   My mum and step-dad were absolutely fine with the whole thing, and I subsequently came out to my older step-sister and cousin, who were both chuffed to be honest.   My dad and step mum were also okay with it, but thin

Guild Wars 2

Been playing a bit of Guild Wars 2 on someone else's computer lately, and since I had enough Tesco vouchers to order it for free, I did it!   Game is arriving tomorrow and I'll be starting to play. This should be interesting! :D

Coming Out Part 2.

The highly awaited sequel to coming out Part 1 is here!   Before we begin, it's probably worth mentioning at this point that I've literally just done it and feel like poo. I'm not after sympathy, I just want to write all this down, spew it out, but I also want to share it in a blunt manner.   So I just told my dad and step mum that I'm gay. I felt compelled to do this after I told my mum and step dad last week, and to be honest, I really didn't want to and found this one a hell of a lot more

Coming Out Part 1.

Haven't written a blog on here in bloody ages! But this seems like as good a time and as good a topic to blog about as any.   It's not exactly a secret, but whether you know or not, here it is: I'm gay.   Today, I finally told my mum and step-dad. It's quite a tough and odd one, because it's something we've discussed several times over the past few years, but mostly when either I or they have been intoxicated to high heavens and was kind of just left unspoken as I was never comfortable enoug

Brand vs. Westboro Baptist

Another video that I'm probably way late in picking up on. But I thoroughly enjoyed it and wanted to share it here, just in case anyone else is as slow as me. Huge fan of Russel Brand and think he did a superb job here.

General Update

Been a while since I've blogged about my actual life, and I figure now is as good a time as any.   My Runescape membership has expired, on 7th December 2012, exactly 6 years to the day after I made my first account. I'm officially no longer a paying member and consider myself retired from the game. No regrets, thoroughly enjoyed it but it was just time to move on :)   University has been a bit of an up and down, absolutely loved every part of it, just took some adjusting to, and after two mo

Article on "Being Gay"

I came across this article on Facebook today about homosexuality. I don't usually weigh in on such matters, but this article is just brilliantly hilarious, so I thought I'd share it here. Not as a means of starting controversy or an argument. It is what it is.   Source of Article, or read spoiler below.

Conundrum

How does a turtle with no arms, and no legs, cross the freeway?   Hint: To find the answer: Take the 'F' out of 'Free' and the 'F' out of 'way'.

Personal Facepalm of the Week

I saw this earlier on a forum I visit, and it made me facepalm hardcore. The topic in discussion was warning labels being introduced to cigarette packets in Australia, and the person said this:     Maybe you agree with this. Maybe you don't. I just thought I'd post it here for my own personal record of one of the most moronic things I've read in a long, long time.

Literature

I've never been one for reading much "classic literature". In the last 4 years of school I've studied a bit of Shakespeare, Chaucer, Sophocles, Tenessee Williams, Fitzgerald, Camus etc. etc, and nothing really made me go "wow, I really want to continue my studies" (despite the unquestionable brilliance of all the mentioned authors, respectively). So when I decided to attempt to combine my history degree (something I've been intending to do for the past seven or so years) with a literature degree

"I Want Me Some Glory Hole!"

Kurt Angle

With the Olympics opening ceremony in .... 12 minutes, it got me thinking about Olympians.   The first one that springs to mind is Kurt Angle, which just made me realise how badly I miss hearing this entrance every week in WWE:   They totally need to use this everytime an American athlete is competing in an event.   The chants of "You Suck" to this theme were so priceless it's unreal. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_eg_qdm-B0

Dirty Jagex.

I bought a pack of runecoins last week, so that I could buy the pegasus teleport and some emotes. The payment took a while to process (as Jagex payments usually do for whatever reason).   I checked my bank statement this morning and see they've charged me twice for the same pack.   So I went onto the forums and made a post asking what's going on. A mod replied within an hour saying, no you weren't, but I've sent you a message in your in-game message centre explaining the problems.   So I w

Lacking a party trick? Want to impress your friends? Want to name 950 years of English/British monarchs in chronological order? Here's your chance! A fun song to remember all Kings/Queens since 1066!     And before you ask, yes, I can name every King and Queen since 1066. This song is a godsend.
