So tonight was my last night at Explorers
That’s formed a big part of my weekly routine for three years and it’s over.
But I’m not worried, I’m still scouting one way and another. And I was ready to move on from Explorers anyway as amazing as my time there was.

day 21 - a song that you listen to when you’re...
Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Make you feel better
It’s so upbeat and awesome.
Laura was moaning about how she didn’t know what to buy me for my birthday. I told her not to bother because I honestly don’t care, after she’d ranted about that for a while I asked her to bring her camera when I have the BBQ and take photos. Because so few photos exist of me with my friends, and I want to stick them on my wall at uni. She agreed that was a plan , but insisted on...

day 20 - a song that you listen to when you’re...
ACDC
Any of a number of their tracks put me in the mood to fight to be honest.
I never fight though.
Well today
Think I made a bit of a fool myself this morning
went to work , hated Luke for acting like my boss when he’s not he’s the same as me, He’s just a prick.
The company owe me 15 hours wages.
And I have to go back tomorrow 2-6

day 19 - a song from your favorite album
Paul Simon’s Graceland is probably my favourite album.
And I really like Homeless on it , it’s a really laid back track. And it has cool african singing. But call me Al is a classic.
Why must people moan constantly about the weather.
Yes it’s warm , it’s not going to kill you. MTFU , STFU.
If you’re hot in bed get the air moving through your house somehow , don’t bother with the duvet.
Just please shut up
Just found a Live album from biffy clyro on Napster
Life Made.
Had a good day really
Work was a bit crap but quite easy.
Both of the william’s sisters are out of wimbledon , Murray is through convincingly.
I got a letter telling me my wages go up when I’m 18. I found out that minimum wage for an 18 year old is £4.90. I’m going to get £5.93 per hour.
My dad order the digital camera for me to take to India the other day , and when I get back he’s keeping...

Day 18- A song you wish you heard on the radio
I wish Rush got more airtime on mainstream radio to be honest.
Some of their stuff is too borderline prog but a lot of it is perfectly mainstream.
:O Stevie Nicks new album
I’ve only listened to the first two songs yet.
It’s awesome.
hermione gets it right
randomskeptic:
Because my bedroom is in the cellar it was a...
I was comfy in bed.
Walked upstairs and bam , hit by a wall of hot air. Because everyone else is out all the windows were shut and so I was sweating like a glass blower’s arse.
In other news ,I'm a poor exscuse for a teenager.
I was invited out into town with a load of my friends. I have never done this before and I’m not 18 yet.
The idea of being IDed , the even vague possibility of dancing , and just an unfamiliar social scene scared me if I’m honest.
So I lied and said I was busy, I’ll wait until Laura has given me the usual New social thing briefing and then I can just stick with her like...
Today was a wonderful day to be alive.
The weather was amazing , I was in work but I enjoyed it.
We spent lots of time watching attractive women walk past. I saw three very attractive women I knew, my supervisor said I was a lucky man. I think lucky would be actually achieving something with said attractive women , instead of merely knowing them.
My friend Laura came past and I was looking out the top window with the phone and Gareth...
day 17 - a song that you hear often on the radio
I hardly ever listen to the radio. But for the last few years at this time of year I’ve heard radio 2 play going loco down in acapulco by the four tops.

Day 15- A song that you used to love but now hate
I don’t really know. I used to really Like guns n’ roses but I think I over listened to a lot of their stuff.
Correction:
I did manage to sell £259 worth of stuff in 15 minutes today which was 2.33 items per customer when the target is two.
FUCK YEAH
I'd like to say I've achieved something today.
But apart from starting to call Luke at work thrush (Because he’s an irritating c**t) I haven’t.

Day 15 - A song that describes you
Paranoid - Black Sabbath
I wish I had something cooler to write here.
So last night was the AGM at the scout group where...
When Nigel the section leader I work with got up to deliver the Scout’s section report he listed all the uniformed leaders, parent helpers etc. Then Young Leaders, he said I was a leader of the future and a captain of industry. I was rather proud.
Then in the van on the way to the pub , Martin (another one of our leaders) said to me how lucky they were to have had me there this last year...

Day 14 - A song that no one would expect you to...
Andre Rieu - Irish Washerwoman
This is a violin piece but it sounds good.
Watch
So last night I went to the pub
Which was nice. I wasn’t wankered I was just in that light headed happy zone.
I had possibly the most philospohical conversation of my life walking home debating everything (‘cause the pub is a trek from my house).
When I got home though because I’d had a bit to drink it was a bit of dutch courage as they call it so I was feeling a bit brave. I was so close to texting this girl...
thisgrrlwithhands asked: While I don't mind a bit of Noah and the Whale occasionally, I certainly wouldn't describe them as "fucking amazing".
Anonymous asked: FUCK YOU. FUCK YOU. FUCK YOU. FUCK YOU. FUCK YOU. FUCK YOU.
NOAH AND THE WHALE ARE FUCKING AMAZING!

day 13 - a song that is a guilty pleasure
Most of Lady Gaga’s stuff I have to say.
So the church of England are moving to let homosexual men become bishops as long as they’re celibate.
I think it’s a definite step forwards and it’s sending the message that the church isn’t beyond the law.
However I don’t understand how the church can retain any credibility, Homosexuality is clearly banned in the bible (Leviticus 18:22) so that surely makes them...
Also I saw a cool defenition of love
Where a guy/girl forgets there are about 3 billion other girls/guys in the world.
So today I remembered the best thing on fb.
Lol Snaps! I’m just going to gently spam you with it now.
Yesterday I left my exam and my finger started bleeding, then about an hour later my lip, then after that my nose (not an actual nosebleed but blood from the skin on the side of the nose)
I have no idea why any of these happened. They didn’t hurt either it was just “Oh I appear to be leaking blood again”
Weird
So Today:
I had two exams which clashed. So I spent lunch in isolation which wasn’t so bad I just read the newspaper.
The exams both went fairly well. Then I helped Mrs. Green at dofe sorting the kit out.
Came home had a Guinness got my FB password from my ex. Then caught up with all the facebook stalking I normally do.
I couldn’t resit looking at the photos of my ex with her new bf.
I...

Day 12 - A song from a band you hate
Tonight’s the Kinda Night - Noah and the Whale
I dislike most of the rest of their stuff I’ve heard. But I actually quite like this

Day 11 - A song from your favourite band
I’d have to say Rush and Freewill.
My exgirlfriend was the first to tell me that a band called Rush existed (advert in a magazine we were reading) and I tried listening to some to impress her but I didn’t really like it. Until I heard Freewill on my friend’s radio station.
It’s amazing lyrically and it started my love of rush.
So I've just done my Mechanics 2 Exam
It went pretty well I must say.
There was a question which would have been a total bitch except it was like one I did on saturday so I’m glad I did a paper saturday.
There was one 3 mark question I couldn’t for the life of me do. And the 5 mark one after that the answer is dubious and there’s some creative algebra there but I think 3 method marks there isn’t too much to...
So last night I found out my ex has a new bf.
When I met her she had a bf, she left him for me. She’s now gone back to him which for some reason I always had some idea she would , it’s kind of an interesting circle thing.
I’m not sure how all this makes me feel. On the one hand last night bitterness took hold I found myself hoping that at some point they’d be doing...

Rush - Closer to the heart
The Dubliners - Grace

Day 9 - A song you can dance to
I should make this clear. I don’t dance , not ever. I intend to dance once in my life, my wedding day. And then it shall be an akward shuffle.
I move a bit to Rush songs because I’ve watched all the live videos.
I air guitar / drum quite a lot.

Day 8 - a song you know all the words to.
Lots but there are two that stand out as achievements to me.
1) Billy Joel - We didn’t start the fire which is essentially a 5 minute summary of lots of world events over lots of years.
2) Seven Drunken Nights - The dubliners. There are 7 verses , 2 are banned. I know all seven verses and it’s an awesome drinking song,

“Laws were made for people and the law can never scorn
The right of a man to be...”
– The Dubliners - Free the people
Also I'm bloody freezing.
But on the upside it turns out despite what my mum told me that raw smoked bacon I ate last night can’t be that bad for me ‘cause I’m not sick.
