I had a good day.
I’m stupid tired because I had a really trippy dream and woke up at 5 and couldn’t sleep again.
But we sold a decent amount on the market stall we did for world challenge.
not much else to say really.
Day 22
How have you changed in the past two years.
Almost beyond recognition , I’m more outgoing now, Happier generally, I like to think a better person but I couldn’t guarantee it.
Day 21
One of your favourite shows.
So many , ten o’clock live is funny and intelligent and rude and political it’s amazing.
But then there’s: friends, blackadder, scrubs, inbetweeners, not going out, Two ronnies yadda yadda
So tonight,
It’s the district st George’s day parade and service with Scouts.
I’m getting an award of some kind from the District Comissioner, The fact the badge is already on my uniform is irelevant, the recognition from my scouting “family” is always nice.
Apart from that I like being in full smart uniform.
Day 20
How Important you think education is.
Paramount , without question. The only thing that sets us apart from animals is brains and civilisation. Other animals are faster stronger, more hardy.
So from that point yes. Secondly it’s an easy way to better yourself, I come from a family which I think sits squarely in working class. But because I’ll go to uni , and because I’ll be a...
I've been doing the routes for my DofE gold
We have write on wipe off maps.
The white spirit cleaner has given me a bitch of a headache.
Well today. We had to cancel the open mic night because all the bloody acts pulled out on us and we’d sold bugger all tickets.
I had a reasonable day until I saw Arianne outside the window at the end of school , and then my friend Laura told me how long she’d been with her BF , so I said “Arianne and I managed 17.5 months” and then Laura and Jess started asking me why we...

Day 19
Disrespecting your parents.
I have without a doubt in the past disrespected them.
Nowadays it’s pretty good. They’re liberal enough, but there are boundaries and I know that if I break them I’m in deep shit.
Sometimes my parents feel I disrespect them by holding a different opinion and arguing it, or when I feel something isn’t fair but I make no apologies for that
Going back to school doesn't phase me greatly
Partly because I don’t have to be until ten tomorrow I guess.
But I’d kinda of run out of steam on revising. I need things to do , questions from teachers etc.
It’s sad but outside of term time my life tends to lack any purpose as all scouting activity stops in the holiday’s aswell as school.
I’m not looking forwards greatly to seeing Arianne for the first time...
Where the strawberry beds Sweep down to the Liffey You’ll kiss away the worries from my brow I love you well today And I’ll love you more tomorrow If you ever loved me Molly love me now
The Ferryman
They say it only rains twice a week in Ireland,
Once for 4 days , the other for three days.
Day 18
Your Beliefs.
Well I don’t believe in god. I prefer to put my faith in science and humanity instead.
I’m a Humanist. That means I don’t believe in god , but I don’t label myself athiest as that’s defining yourself in terms of god. And why would I want to define myself in terms of something I don’t believe in.
Humanism is about morality and ethics based on...
Day 17
Highs and Lows of past year
Highs:
Summer , Winter Camp , Getting 5 uni offers, Xmas , Memories with the gf, new friends found , scouting generally, getting better at maths
Lows:
Arguments with Niamh , breaking down during exams last year, not being able to go to southampton uni , money worries, arguments with the then gf.
I'm making a census for F1 fans on Tumblr. I'm...
I will not be told. I will be shown; I will be inspired; I will be led; but I...

My left eye is all bloodshot and it stings. And it’s horrible.
In other news, I had a really quiet 3 hour shift at work today , it clearly wasn’t worth being open, I could have been in somerset this weekend.
The plan didn't quite work
By recorder box gets a crappy signal sometimes so Black Books was all patchy and pixelated at times.
And I got my ambitions mixed up with my abilities by ordering a set meal for two from the chinese.
I feel so full I haven’t even eaten the white magnum in the freezer :D
chinese takeaway and black books ?
I think so :D
i think the new punishment for animal abuse should...
no, an eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind.
Day 16
Your Views on mainstream music:
Shit generally , the charts are normally crap.
That said Biffy Clyro are pretty big and I really like them.
The festivals tend to have good lineups and I guess they’re mainstream ?
If you like music and songwriting then do it, it doesn’t matter if you don’t...
– Kate Nash (via fuckyeskatenash)
Well today in summary.
I half tidied up, I did a decent bit of psychology revision then the work ethic fell to bits on maths. And the OCR website is down so I can’t get a physics paper to do.
I discovered Humanisim and decided that I’m a humanist.
I’ve debated morality, dreams, ethics, religion, science. In depth and it was very interesting.
That’s all really.

http://mathmajorsloth.tumblr.com/ Only bother looking at that if you’re a maths geek :L
Grrlwithhands Someone I know but haven’t seen for a while , it’s intelligent , funny and yet satisfyingly rude generally.
BlushandPanic Again someone I know, a very deep thinker, voice your opinion on anything she’s said , the debate is interesting.
