Ah i feel very bad that i have not commented on alot of your work recently. I got back from Australia yesterday, and i just checked my inbox 250 deviations! So please, excuse me if i just comment on a few of your deviations.
Yeah Australia was pretty good. I spent 18 days there. The people, especially the women were very friendly. The weather was great, and i did a lot of shopping. Although, i dont think i could return there, as 20 hours flying was too much for me
Well i hope to get around to commenting on your pretty work.
Take care, and good luck

Sorry for not being online for the past month. My subscription ran out and my credit card was in the post.
I am thinking of how i can progress my photography further. I have been on a 10 week photography editing course, but that wasnt much of a help. I have been looking at this place in Reading. You book a studio up and a model. you can also pay extra for this professional photographer to teach you how to take glamour pictures and how to adjust lighting etc. The thing is i would find that a bit intimidating. I would have to tell the models what to do , and i just don't know...
I was also looking at these one on once tuition. I thought that would be an excellent idea to help me with my photography. The prices though are ridiculous. £350 for the day! I dont know what the fix prices are, but that sounds a little too expensive.
I dont know what to do. Can you give me any advice?
I have been offered work recently actually. A rugby club asked me to take pictures and sell them on. Also a racing stables asked me to do something similar. I rejected them both, as im not good enough to do that.
Yes, so can anyone give me any online courses or general adivce?</sub>

How are we all? I hope you are well
Okay here it goes... I am planning on making a club on DA. I was browsing around, and thought it would be quite cool to have one.
My club will be called Match-Maker. It is where you can meet new friends or more To join you have to fill in a questionare that acts as your profile, so people can judge your personality. I'd submit each profile as a deviation with the title being your name (your real name, fake name whatever) age/sex/location. Then when someone wants to contact you, they have to send a note to Match-Maker to declare interest. Arg it is really hard to explain But trust me i think it will really take off. I have written out all the rules on info on my other computer What i ask from you guys is a small favour... Can you fill in a questionare so that i can add you as a member. You see, i need atleast 10-15 people to start off with. I am going to advertise it with AdCast, and i think it could be really popular. Hey, if you dont want to do it then that's fine, but i would really apreciate it.
Like i said i've got all the rules and info ready, so if you want to view that first before you decide, let me know.</sub>

^{Ahhh i haven't been on here in a while. I've tried to comment on atleast some of your work. After over two months of now coming online, you do get a few deviations to comment on
I havent been online for numerous reasons. The weather has been bloody awful, so not many opportunities for photos (my camera hasnt left it's case in about 2 months!) plus with work and everything, it is hard to get online. I will make it my new year's resolution
Do i have any more news?? not really much. I am going to Australia in March on a cricket tour. In July i am going to America again. In between i might try and squeeze a trip to Germany in. Who knows?
hahaha i need some friends seriously! All my friends were at school, so i dont see them anymore. lol it isnt like a recluse or anything! i do go out, and socialise. Well I do have a girlfriend, which is lovely. She is really sweet to me Does a girlfriend count as a "friend" - i suppose it does hahaha!
Well friends, I hope you are all well! I wish you a healthy, prosperous and happy new year. Take care xxxxxx}

Okay i need your help! I took about 100 pictures on my nikon D70, which i were excited about. When i came to upload the pictures it said "windows cannot open this file" "Windows need to know which program created" then of course it gave you two options to use the internet to find the apropiate program or select program from list.
Then i realized what i had done! the last two days i had my camera settings on RAW ( i read somewhere that it improved your pictures) I'm really annoyed as i was really excited about these pictures. Can anybody help me?

Today it was funny as this one fella and I had to clear some aspestos from these roofs. We had to wear these white overall suits things on, masks, and goggles! We couldnt stop laughing.

How are you all today?
Yesterday at work it was ever so funny! where i am working at the moment is near these two old ladies. Guess what they did for me and my work partner? (Tony- 58 years old, loves women and gambling) They made us a full English breakfast , sausage, 2 eggs, lots of bacon, tomato, chipped potatoes and lots of bread and butter! I actually couldnt believe it! There was me and Tony covered in crap, oil, tar, stinking to high heavens and these old ladies invited us in for breakfast! Mind you afterwards one of them asked me if i could knock her fence down and cut her lawn for her. The breakfast was worth it

Well last night was the last game for my football team - The Bedgers My brother and I founded the team, and we entered a league earlier this year. We did it for a bit of a laugh, as none of our team had played football before! We only won 2 games! We were bloody awful! Hey, but it was all good fun.
Tomorrow I have to go to my school to collect my exam results.
Later that day I will be going to the pub to either celebrate or comisserate. I think the second one...

Hope y'all have a great day

lots of love

Well I finally have a job I work on a building site, or as you americans say "construction". It is for my Dad's company, so it is alright. It is hard work, but rewarding
Next week I find out my exam results Then i have to decide whether i am going back to school or not. I really do not want to mainly because I dislike it so much and I want to start working with my Dad. ah school really isnt for me.
I bought the shakira album yesterday - I really like it

I am starting to get on DA more often now

How is your summer going? I hope it is going well. Whether you are working, studying, partying, or just relaxing I hope all is well
My summer so far has been very interesting. Various mood swings and different emotions. A few weeks back Tanya came over from America to spend just over two weeks with me. We had ever such a lovely time. She left around 10 days ago, so i feel very depressed. I need to get myself back together again
Recently my music tastes have gone pretty wild! I am now a big fan of Take That and Morrissey! Interesting huh? Randomness...
Well everyone I hope you enjoy the rest of your summer!

My last journal entery was nearly two months ago!
I have been away from DA for so bloody long.
To all my friends i apologize for not commenting on their recent work. When i last checked there were over 300 deviations in my inbox, so i could not comment on them .
Well today is my last day of the school year I dont know why but always on the last day i feel rather strange. Yes, of course i am happy i have a long time off school, but then i keep looking forward to September, then it depresses me!
Well in a few days time a very lovely friend of mine comes over to spend two weeks with me. She is from a little ol' place called America. You may have heard of it? Yeah well we planned it back in March/April and we have been counting down the days. So it is good that soon the waiting will come to an end She is 18, very pretty, long blonde hair and friendly (c'mon she is American!) Ah I can't wait!
Well super friends I'll try my best to get on to DA as much as i cant, but be patient with me
Take care peeps!

lots of love

wow! It feels so long since I've last used this
I have a lot of explaining to do...
As some of you may have noticed, i have not used deviantart seriously in nearly two months
Ever since i have came back from America, i have had no time at all to use deviantart.
I feel so bad as there has been so many of your deviatations, journals etc i havent commented on.
For example - a very talented comic drawer, is on something like page 38 of her comic. I have yet to comment on any of her pages Alicia, i'll try and make time soon to comment on them
Then there is Who is preganant, and i havent been able to ask how she is doing. Not to mention comment on her deviations.
There is Kimberly who is personally my favourite photographer on DA. A while back she was entering into a big competition and i havent had chance to ask her how she did.
Rachel - who is my best friend, i hardly ever get to talk to her anymore. My fault of course! I really miss her.
To all my other friends who i havent commented on your work over the last 2 months, i am truely sorry. I get annoyed when some people dont comment on my work , and most of the time i do comment on all of your work.
Whether or not i will be able to use DA more in the near future is uncertain. I have important exams coming up shortly, plus other extra-curricular activities. But i will try my hardest to pay a visit and comment on atleast some of your work.
Well the most exciting thing happening for me at the moment is a girl called Tanya Like i said we met up in Las Vegas a while back and really fell for one another. She is coming over in July to spend two weeks with me. So as you can imagine I am very much looking forward to that.
Well everyone i hope you are all well! I miss talking to you all. Hopefully i will be able to get on DA more often *fingers crossed*

lots of love

Well on wednesday i returned from America! I would have written a journal earlier but i have been so jet-lagged
Well when i got back i checked my inbox and there were like over 200 deviations So sorry if i couldnt comment on ALL your deviations, i tried to do as many as two hours would allow me I'm only human
Ah seriously it was an amazing holiday. I have always wanted to go to america, and I was not disapointed. First I went to Vegas. Now that was just so over the top, that is why i loved the place I think for the two or three days i was there going "oh my god!", "oooooo!" "WTF!?" I am definatly going there with some friends when i am 21! Just so different to dear ol' little England you know?
Then i spent a week cruisng around the Hawaiin islands. That was bloody gorgeous. Even though it was winter there, it was much better weather than here It was so humid! i met some lovely friends on the ship, Tiffany - from indianapolis (sp?), Lewis - from Norwich, England (yes i know very ironic, the only guy friend i meet is from England ) And James - bar tender on the cruise
Then i spent 2 nights in LA. i didnt really like LA too much really. The only thing i did like was i saw "david hasselhoff" on the star walk thing? That gave me a chuckle
The highlight of the whole trip was at the very start in Vegas. I spent two days with and The best two days of my life. Thanks girls for the wonderful time
Well i could spend all day telling you about the America trip, but i want to keep it short and sweet
Well y'all (yes i have now adopted many new american phrases ) I hope you are all doing well! Fill me in on all the juicy gossip!
Missed you!

lots of love

ah i heard some sad news last night You know that German waitress at my pub? the one i was debating on whether she was engaged? Well she told me last night she was leaving. she said she is going to work in a 5 star hotel in London. When she told me I was just so shell shocked. I actually didnt say anything, i just stared down at the floor. James helped me out by saying "aww kristin, that is so sad".
"sigh" she is leaving on Monday. Sunday i will have to say goodbye to her. When you live at a pub, you make many friends and interesting charcters, but always they move away and it is so heart breaking. I actually use to look forward to going to the pub, so i could see her.
I dont know if i want to stay in touch with her. It's hard to explain, but i think it is one of those things where you just leave it. You understand? "sigh"

Good news is I am leaving for America in 7 days time!

Sorry to those of you who i havent commented on work, jornals etc. i'll get round to it, dont worry

For all the photographers out there

The Smiths were unable to conceive children, and decided to use a surrogate father to start their family.

On the day the proxy father was to arrive, Mr. Smith kissed his wife
and said, "I'm off. The man should be here soon".
Half an hour later, just by chance, a door-to-door baby photographer
rang the doorbell, hoping to make a sale. "Good morning madam. I've come
to....."
"Oh, no need to explain. I've been expecting you," Mrs. Smith cut
in.
"Really?" the photographer asked. "Well, good! I've made a specialty
of babies."
"That's what my husband and I had hoped. Please come in and have a
seat."
After a moment she asked, blushing, "Well, where do we start?"
"Leave everything to me. I usually try two in the bathtub, one on
the
couch and perhaps a couple on the bed. Sometimes the living room floor is
fun too....you can really spread out!"
"Bathtub, living room floor? No wonder it didn't work for Harry and
me. "
"Well, madam, none of us can guarantee a good one every time. But if
we try several different positions and I shoot from six or seven angles,
I'm sure you'll be pleased with the results."
"My, my, that's a lot of ..! ! ." gasped Mrs. Smith.
"Madam, in my line of work, a man must take his time. I'd love to be
in and out in five minutes, but you'd be disappointed with that, I'm
sure."
"Don't I know it," Mrs. Smith muttered.
The photographer opened his briefcase and pulled out a portfolio of
his baby pictures. "This was done on the top of a bus."
"Oh my god!!" Mrs. Smith exclaimed, tugging at her handkerchief.
"And these twins turned out exceptionally well, when you consider
their
mother was so difficult to work with."
"She was difficult ?" asked Mrs. Smith.
"Yes, I'm afraid so. I finally had to take her to the park to get the
job done right. People were crowding around four and five deep, pushing
toget a good look."
"Four and five deep?" asked Mrs. Smith, eyes widened in amazement.
"Yes", the photographer said. "And for more than three hours, too.
The mother was constantly squealing and yelling - I could hardly concentrate!
Then darkness approached and I began to rush my shots. Finally, when the
squirrels began nibbling on my equipment, I just packed it all in."
Mrs. Smith leaned forward. "You mean they actually chewed on your
um..equipment ?"
"That's right. Well, madam, if you're ready, I'll set up my tripod so
that we can get to work. "
"Tripod??
"Oh yes, I have to use a tripod to rest my Canon on. It's much too
bigfor me to hold very long. Madam? Madam?... ..Good Lord, she's fainted!!

"sigh" fun times

Recently it has been annoying, as i havent veen able to use DA very much. Benn rather busy with one thing and another.
I hope you are all well, and enjoy the rest of your weekend

I need some of your advice yet again
My recent photography has kept me interested over the last year or so, but i want to move away from the same old stuff i am doing now and move on to people and portraits. e.g. using a model etc. Okay i know this sounds like a big challenge; i know it is, but i really want to kick on with my photography now. A good friend of mine, Vicky she is willing to do the actual modeling. Then if i am happy with the results then i can get others
I've got a few ideas on what i actually want to do. I just wanted to ask you all if you have any advice to give? Anything at all would be apreciated
e.g. lighting, fliters, screens, lol anything at all

Ok here is the GREAT news! Well as some of you know i am going to America in 3 weeks time I am going to Las Vegas for 3 nights, then we fly to Hawaii, where we are having a 10 day cruise, after that we spend 2 nights in L.A! Here is the really wicked news! and are flying all the way from Washington State to Las vegas to meet us! They are both sisters and wonderful friends of mine! awww it is so lovely of them isnt it? I cant wait to meet them! All the way from Washington State, down to Las Vegas to see me and my brother. The thing that makes it even more wondeful of them is that we will only be able to spend 1 day together, yet they are still coming on down. I am still pretty shell-shocked and im going to think of a way to repaying them.
Well firstly by making sure they have a fun time with us and ummm im going to have to think of some more things
I cant believe i nearly forgot! Their mum who is called Jade is coming as well! We are also very good friends What else could a guy want? a day with 3 lovely ladies
Well everyone i hope life is treating you well! Talk to you soon!

I havent been on DA for nearly a week now! That is he longest time i have been away in ages. In my inbox i have 112 new messages 57D 1M 30C 5F 17J 2N hahaha enough to keep me busy. I'll do my best to comment or reply to them all; but no promises
I got my Nikon D70 on Saturday! I really dont know what to make of it. I dont know whether i have jumped in too soon It is a good camera, but it is for the amateur professional and it is a little daunting. At the moment all i have done is have it on auto mode Hopefully i'll get to grips with it soon
Well anyways i hope this week prves to be a better week than last!
Hope you all had a good weekend!

I havent been very well recently
I dont know what is wrong with me. I am just so tired. Yesterday i had to get my mum to pick me up from school at lunch. It's hard to explain what happened... in cathedral i just... wasnt myself. I was scared actually. :scared: It is where i havent been sleeping very well recently. I've been so down and worried about school recently. It is just so tedious now. When i am in the lessons i dont learn anything, as i am just concentrating on getting it over with. I'm behind in all my work, homework etc. It is just chaotic. Plus to add salt to injury i got a nice little note from amazon today saying my D70 wont be dispatched for 4-6 weeks. Well i was furious, there was no way i was waiting that long, so i cancelled it and bought one on the net from a LTD dealer. It cost me £80 more, but i dont care Even more bad news. You know that journal entery "Girl with the silver ring" that i wrote last week about the waitress who i was debating over if she was engaged? Well the staff are having a party next week and i checked the list, she has invited a "partner" oh well.
lol well on to something a little more uplifting. This Saturday is my little brother's birthday and party (it is also *Whitetrashbeautiful's B-Day as well! ) and for a laugh my twin and I are going to be bouncers. lol no joke. The black tie job and all so my little brother's 12 year old friends better watch out. No gate crashing or alcohol on my watch

Well i have finally had the guts to buy a camera Take a look at it = Nikon D70 You see I dont really know alot about cameras; when people go on about the lense or the filters blah blah blah i just get lost So i really have just splashed out on this camera because of the amazing reviews on amazon, and the picture results from *Whitetrashbeautiful Her pictures are amazing and she was really helpful in making sure i got the right lens and deal etc.
Well i really cant wait to get it! :hyper:
Tonight i am seeing that Jonny Cash film "walk the line". I really love his music, so i cant wait to see it!
I really hope you all had a wonderful weekend! Talk to you soon!

lots of love

I need to ask you a question what does it mean when a girl has a silver ring on her third finger :confused on her left hand? is it definatly a engagement ring? The ring isnt very glamourous; it is just a silver ring with some angraving on it. Is it definatly a engagement ring? could it be from a relative or something?

Well a friend of mine Violetdanni
She used one of my i.d's and edited it wonderfully. She has done a wonderful job. I suggest you check it out [link] and her other work. Cheers Danni

Right now it is snowing. Which is quite unusual for over here.
Im in my business lesson studying spreadsheets. Very fun

Hope you all have a wonderful day!

lots of love

Well i really need to get a new camera!
Which out of these two would you recommend?

This one i do not know much about. This guy showed me some pictures, and they looked amazing.

The Nikon D70. I have heard alot of good things about this. Also a awesome friend of mine *WhiteTrashBeautiful (i would make a link to her page, but i dont know how to) Look at her page and you can see what amazing photos the D70 takes)

oooo I have had my hair cut! It is quite short. I just wanted to look different to my twin I personally think it isnt too bad. It looks alot neater anyway.

Sorry for another one of these
I am not only telling you all what i have been doing, but i am keeping these jornals for future referance.
Today has been the best day of the holiday so far. The last two days havent lived up to my expectations, but today was just wonderful.
We went to the spanish steps and did alot of shopping. We visited Gucci, Prada, Versace, Burberry, Armani etc. Oh my i spent so much of my dad's money! Ive never spent so much money in my life! I spent over a thousand euros in Gucci. I tried on a few jackets. The one i liked they didnt have in my size (the italian blokes are very small, or maybe the rest of us are too big! haha!) So i opted for my second choice, this black velvet jacket. It is a nice tight fit, and it is just perfect. When i looked at the price my eyes widened $900!!! lol i was like "Daddy, i really really like this" He was in a good modd for once, so her bought it me! I also bought a gorgeous Gucci tie as well. lol so all in all i am very pleased with what i bought. My mum wanted me to get this gucci shirt. I'll admit it was gorgeous, but the price.... it was $530! I thought that would have been too unfair of me to ask my dad for that Oh yes! i also bought a gucci belt.
Tonight we are going to "The best restaurant in Rome" according to critics. It is booked for 8pm.
The women over here are just something else. So very chique (sp?) They have so much class, and they are just so wonderful! haha i wish i could stay longer and ummm meet some of them shall we say! haha!
We fly back to England tomorrow at 5pm. So i will talk to you all tomorrow!
hope you all are having fun and are well!

lots of love

Good Evening everyone!
Well today i spent most of my day in the vatican city.
We started off from the hotel around 10am. It has rained non-stop all day. But that hasnt bothered me as i am used to it
When we arrived the que to see the vatican museum (where the sistine chapel is situated inside) was just ridiculous. So we qued outside St.Peter's square and went into the balistica (sp?) At that point we were very dis-heartened as we thought we were going to miss The sistine chapel (it was around 11am, and the sistine closes as 12.30) Our luck changed though when we went on a tour with a rather eccentric Irish tour guide. He took my family and another 15 people around the ballistica for free, then he took us around the whole vatican museum and sistine chapel at a charge. He was very informative, and although my family had to pay over 100 euros for the our tour guide and the ticket fees, it was well worth it. The sistine chapel was quite breath-taking. You wernt allowed to speak or take any pictures. But this rule is commonly ignored. I managed to take around 4-5 pictures and 2 videos, before i was told off by one of the guards. Still i got the pictures though I dont how they will turn out though as 1)the lighting was poor, and i had to rush them. Hopefully they'll be alright though. If any of you want to see the short videos (15-20 secs) i would be more than happy to send it to you.
After the Vatican we were all so tired that we retired to bed for a few hours. when we felt more refreshed we went to the Hard rock cafe Rome! I ate so much i now feel incredibly sick. I have been to the Hard Rock cafe London, now the hard rock cafe Rome! I hope to go to everyone in the world haha!
At the moment it is coming up to 10pm here. My family are in the pub.
This holiday has so far has bee okay. There are some aspects that are frustrated me and my brother though. We want to see the night life, go clubbing, meet some of the women,, but we are with our parents "sigh". I think me james might go out tonight. There are some nice clubs around here. I am definatly taking my girlfriend here in a few years time. It is very romantic
During the holiday i have wished i was with a girl "sigh" oh well...
Well tomorrow i am going to spend all my dad's money. We are going to the spanish steps where lots of lovely women are, and shops. So i will be a very happy boy! haha!
I will be returning on Saturday. I hope to talk to alot of you then. I really miss you all... Talk you soon
Ciao baby!

lots of love

This is a extract from a email i wrote to a very very special friend of mine
But still it tells you all about what i am doing

Right now i am in a internet cafe in my hotel. When i say "internet cafe", i mean it is just one computer where you pay for every half and hour.

I arrived here yesterday at around 6pm. We had a quick look around some shops, but for only for about half an hour. Then we looked for somewhere to eat, but there wasnt a restaurant in our hotel. Strange, we thought? There was a small bar where we drank for the rest of the night. My mum got so ridiculousy drunk! She felt so sick this morning! haha!

This morning we woke reasonably early, 9am. We went on the terrace of the hotel for a continental breakfast. As we walked down from breakfast, my mum complained she felt very sick! it was such a escapade, and she had to return to her room. So the lads and I (i include my dad as one of the ""lads" haha!) went to the colleseum. We had a guided tour round there for about an hour, which was okay, but i knew most of the imformation already! :-P I got some lovely photos so far. The colleseum was excellent, but i imagined it to be a little more ummm decorative. But i suppose that is from watching too many hollywood movies!

After that we had a little walk round, collected my hungover mother from the hotel, and went to a irish pub where we had food and drink. The food was very good (although my brother didnt like his as he decided to have a selection of German sausages! haha!)

Tomorrow we are going to the Spanish steps, where all the beautiful women are and where all the great designer clothes are. So no doubt i will have some serious fun there! haha!

The following day we hope to go to the Vatican city, and see the sistine chapel etc.

I really miss you! I hope you are all well, and you are having a fun time.

Did you have a good valentines? I hope so.

As they say over here, Ciao!

lots of love

Well I am off to Rome tomorrow morning! I am going to bed now, so this is goodbye, for now
This is also my 100th journal entery!!! cool eh?
Well I am going to miss you all! I will try and get to a internet cafe and write to you all
I will comment on all your journals and deviations when i get back!
Bye guys!

lots of love

ahhh well after today i have 10 days off school
During those 10 days I will relax and go to rome of course
This Saturday i am meeting a friend who i havent seen in about a year. He used to be the manager of my dad's pub. He left with his girlfriend to live in Norway. Of course I was very sad But now he has broken up with his girlfriend, and my dad wants him back running the pub again. It's all very complicated and hush hush
I recieved my mark for the "Verboten Liebe" piecefor English. I changed the ending though to a very sad and dramatic one, and i got a good mark! So that was good
Last night I did a little bit of photogrpahy. I might have one deviation on tonight just depends how the pictures turn out.
Well my lovelies I hope you are all having a good day and you are all well! I miss you all

I want to apologize to all of you that have submitted something since Friday. Normally i am very punctual on commenting on everyone's work, but i have been terribly busy. I didnt use DA over the weekend, and in my inbox there are 65 deviations. I like to comment on nearly all of them, as i believe if someone has taken the time to submit, then the least someone could do is comment on it. Sorry to everyone if my comment is be-lated, or if i havent commented on your work yet, i will do a.s.a.p
I had a really awesome weekend! I just relaxed and did very miniumal anything. For once i didnt actually use the computer! :smug:
ugh! i have submitted some crap recently. I havent taken any decent photos in ages. Hopefully when i go to Rome next week, i can take some kick ass pictures! ah that reminds me! From Monday of next week to around thursday or Friday i will be away at Rome, so i wont be on DA. If i can i will go to a internet cafe and say hi to you all! Any of you want to come with me? I am just going with my family, so i might get bored. so if any of you want to come, please you are more that welcome

Hello Everyone! how are you all? i do hope you are having fun at work/school/home! I am at school at the moment. I feel like death warmed up! I have a cold, and i feel rotten. Normally i dont get ill like that. I do get frequent migranes, but apart from thati normally do not get ill. Im gonna get my mum to come into school to bring me something to eat and a hot drink. Hopefully I'll feelabit better then.
"sigh" Valentines day coming up. It's really odd as normally i dont care about V-day, but this time i am dreading it.
I havent done alot of photography recently. i dont know why, i just have been pretty busy recently. Im going to Rome a week next monday or Tuesday i think. I'm only going for 4 or 5 days, but it should be fun. My dad has booked a lovely 4 star hotel just outside the colleseum (sp?). I am looking forward to it as i will be able to take some wonderful pictures! imagine it, the sistine chapel, st.peter's square, colleseum, the vatican city! hahaha you never know i might meet a nice Italian girl! I doubt it.
Well the weekend is coming up! Hopefully England will beat Wales (if england lose i'll seriously kick the bucket! ) and hopefully The Steelers will beat Seatle (sp?) in the superbowl final.

John had a urgent phone call from a long lost friend Arthur one night
"Hello?" - John
"There is something playing on my conscious, i cant get rid of it!" -Arthur
"sorry who is this?" - John
"Arthur Witfield, remember me from the cricket club?" - Arthur
"Ahhhh Arthur! nice to hear from you! What is the problem?" - John
"Well... I have had sexually relations with a patient of mine"- Arthur
"Awww come on! That's not too bad! It happens all the time? - John
"But this has been playing on my conscious. I feel really bad!"- Arthur
"For God sake! You are a single man, so what if you have sex with one of your patient."- John
"ahh the thing is, i forgot to say something..." - Arthur
"What?"- John
" I'm a vet!" - Arthur

"Sigh" sorry, one of my many terrible jokes.

Well I have just spent the weekend in Manchester with my uncle. We went to watch Bolton VS Manchester city. After we went bowling, and went to eat at a Indian restaurant. It was a very memorable weekend, but too tiring. I had to do alot of travelling on the train. Plus i havent been sleeping very well recently.
"Sigh" Back to school. Well I hope you all are well, and are having a good time.

I went to watch my local rugby team play today. We were winning though out the whole game, then lost in the last minute. lol but what really made it weird/funny was I saw a teacher there! It is weird to see a teacher around where i live, as they all live like 20 miles away. I was in the men's toilet, used the urinal, did my zip up, turned around and there was Mr.Sandell! He mumbled "hello" (it is just as weird for teachers to meet pupils outside of school) I was so shocked i just replied really loudly and high pitched "hiya!" I walked out quite shocked! Meeting a teacher in the public toilets, just up the road from where you live..... not very cool

This morning I was in such a depressed mood. Mainly, because my little brother made my mother upset this morning, but also because school is really pissing me off.
We are having school inspectors coming round and each class put forward 3 candidates to show them their work. Of course i wasnt selected. i wasnt even selected for history! History is the one subject i take pride in! The thing that did make me just want to scream was I wasnt selceted for the interview (1 person from each tutor group is selected) The guy who was selected is called Edward Lattimer. He is really good looking, sporty, academic, but unbelievably false and cheesey! I really wanted to be selected for the interview arrrg!
I have to go, as i am being told by a prefect that it is time to go "sigh"
I also got a bad mark for my history mock exam That really did upset me...

lots of love

Good news! I have started to write again.
i am working on something i am really excited about.
Im not sure whether i am setting it out as a play or story.
It isnt going to be very long. Just a scene of 4 soldiers at christmas.
hopefully i should get it on here within the next few days.
Thank you all for your lovely comments on the new bach of deviations i have submitted! To be honest they didnt come out as good as i thought they would. But they arnt too bad.
Yes, well I have a 2 hour maths exam next, so i gotta run!

Well this week is my mock exams week! ugh! what a waste of my time! The teachers emphisise the importants of them, but seriously are MOCK exams really that important????
I suppose i am quite lucky, as i go to a private cathedral school, all my exams are in the cathedral. So when i finish my exams early (which i always do) i just sit and stare at the name of the fallen in the last 2 world wars, look at the stain glass window, or just stare at the wonderful artichecture. It beats sitting like a vegetable in the classroom!
Im really annoyed with Amazon. I bought 3 DVD box sets for £45.00
- 1st series of Only fools and horses
- complete series of Fawlty Towers
- 1st series of Steptoe & son
I know i am old fashioned. I just like vintage british comedies
I bought them on boxing day, and I still havent recieved them!
I also bought a Jason Mraz album, which a friend recommended to me. Guess when they are delivering it??? February!!!! how ridiculous is that!!!
Well enough of me moaning! How is everyone? I hope you are all are well. School or work is going well?
i have been doing alot of photography recently. Not 100% pleased with the results. I have been doing still lifes and what not. The thing is i dislike using flash. I like photos to look natural. The only thing is with my camera is that when i take it off flash, it slows the shutter speed, therefor makes it occasionally blurry. That is why i have just bought a tri pod! it should arrive soon!
Sadly i left my camera at my dad's, so i wont be able to put any photos on for a few days. I was in the pub when i realized i had forgotten it. I was bitterly upset
Oh yes! great news! I have singned up for a photo editing course! It costed £50 and it lasts for 10 weeks! I start a week Tuesday. i am a little aprehensive, as it was advertised for people 19+, so i will be the youngest there! But hopefully I willl meet some nice friends.
I have a extremely busy next few weeks! I'll list what i am doing...
- mock exams
- i am viewing a new school. It is one of the top school's in the country, so i am looking forward to look around there.
- my photo editing course
- My brother and I are travelling up to Manchester to watch Manchester city VS Bolton Wanderers!!! We are staying over at our uncle's place.
Well sorry for the long journal!

Went back to school today *holds head in hands*
I had never been so upset at going back to school, as i did this morning. Plus my mum was in a foul mood! as i was getting out of the car to go to the bus i said "Thank you for the lovely christmas mum..."
she didnt even reply!
she was in a bad mood all yesterday evening. At around 6pm she started screaming at us, so James, Daniel and I went to our sanctuary.... the pub! We walked down (about 1 mile), had something to eat in the restaurant. It was good, we reministed on the best parts of the Xmas holidays. Also there is this new waitress at our pub, she is German. She is not the prettiest in the world, but she is German, and well there is something nice about her. I was trying to make conversation with her. I didnt know what to talk about so i talked about WW2 *shoots myself in the head* I couldnt believe what i was doing? i was trying to chat her up with WW2 historical facts. It must have been something i ate. she actually seemed quite interested. But i think she is too old. She is like 20+.

Sadly Christmas is over seems to come and go so fast! Well, atleast i still have over a week off from school. i am supposed to have been revising through out the xmas break, but i havent. I have been so wrapped up in having fun and relaxing that i have forgotten about the stress of school and exam. During breaks like this i dont tend to socialise with my school friends. They just seem to remind me of school, and it depresses me! I'll give you an example... I talked to two of my really good friends on msn yesterday, and the first thing they asked was "How's the revising going?" arrrrg! shut up! No i think i will revise after new years day. 4 days of revison, when i should have done over 2 weeks worth. lol atleast it is something.
I had a little arguement with my friend from Israel yesterday. She commented on my DA page box thing this : YOU ARE THE MOST ANOYING BRITISH I HAVE EVER TALKED TO. DAMN YOU lol! "sigh"
This month i have had my most page reviews ever. I havent commented much, but then again i have submitted more than usual. But it is all good. My account is expiring soon. How do i renew it? will i have to start a new account all over again? can anyone help?
Well i hope everyone has a great new years eve coming up! Party hard, and have fun!

lots of love

*moans* Today i have to go to cheltenham, to get a family photo done. so as you can imagine, im really looking forward to that *sarcasm* lol so ive just had a shave (recently i have been trying to grow a beard, but i am blond, and it started to look a bit gay.)
Yesterday i bought this awesome coat. i begged my dad to give me the money. so he went to the bank and gave me the money (lol it was a en expensive coat :-P)
omg omg! i watched the saddest film ever Tuesday night! my friend Tracie recommended it to me. It was called the notebook. Ok i will admit, i actually cried during the film! lol it was soooo sad. The first ever film i have cried in! Thanks Tracie, it was an awesome film!
Well hope everyone has got their xmas shopping nearly finished!
Oh yes Happy birthday to my lovely friend Rachel!

Well not long now to christmas eh?
since i broke up from school last week, all i have done is go on msn, and spend my dad's money! but it is much better than school. so i am happy.
yeah, ive been pleased with my recent photography. i am finally getting to grips with the camera, and it feels more natural.
well now i am going to the pub. (do i do any different?) When i am older and people ask me "where did you grow up?" my answer will be "The Belfry hotel!"
My dad owns it, he doesnt work there or anything. nor do we live there. but it is like a second home. It is brilliant. i go there anyime i want, all food, drink is free. Beautiful waitresses and bar maids sucking up to me, as my dad owns the pub. "sigh" it's all good no it does have it's negatives... i'm probably not like that much in there, and my dad seems to spend alot of time in there lol.
So if anyone wants to come over, drinks are on me ok!

lots of love

Today we have FINALLY broken up for our christmas holidays!
I am so happy and relieved. i have been looking forward to this day since September. I have actually survived my first senior rugby season as well. so i am a happy bunny at the moment!
Sorry for many of you who do not finish until 23rd, that is unfair. i hope the remaining days are enjoyable and go quickly!

lots of love

yesterday i was dumped tackled, and landed on the back of my head. for about 20 minutes i actually didnt know where i was! As i am extremely stupid or persistant (i'll let you decide) i carried on playing, and recieved some more damage. ironically i got man of the match.
I felt crap for the rest of the day, and in the evening i went to hospital. Dont worry i'm fine, just concussion. although i am not allowed to play rugby until the new year

lots of love

Well well well! At the moment i am at my dad's house. I stay at my dad's house every wednesday and every other weekend. But although my parents are divorced, they are still friends, and they are civillised to one another. in that respect i am very lucky.
Just been to the pub. i had a turkey, with stuffing and cranberry sauce baguette. yummy! I also saw a good friend of mine, who has come back for the weekend from university. So it was good to see him!
Yeah today went very quickly indeed! Also rugby was good as we had a extrenely light session, and watched the 2nd XV play for a bit.
We break up for christmas holidays a week tomorrow. Believe you me i have been counting down the days since October! lmao!
This weekend i have a free weekend! yay! for King's rugby is finished! I think Sunday though will be my last match for my club, Cinderford. James and I are going to leave. It is complicated, but we are not being played in our best and natural positions. Plus i dont get on with my team mates. Dont get me wrong we dotn argue or anything. It is just i have nothing in common with them. Also they sort of treat or segregate me and my brother because we go to a private school. you know how people are like sometimes? But "sigh" it will be quite sad, as this is the 4th of 5th year of playing for them. Shame it has to end like this, but oh well
Well i hope you all are well and are having a jolly good evening!

lots of love

well well well! On sunday i got kicked in the face, during rugby, so i have a dark black eye. if i had a penny for every person who has come up to me and said "oooo nasty! how did you get that?"
I had a day off yesterday as i had a migrane from the smash to the head.
Today so far has been a crappy day! In maths, first lesson i went completely blank! -9 - -9! *moans* i wanna go home!
I had my sports dinner last night, and i went completely off my diet I completely stuffed myself! i had a three course dinner (lol it was compulsorary), then at 11pm when i had had a few drinks, i had a chinese! lmao! lol i am not going to eat anything today!
One or two things have been playing on my mind recently, which i am going to have to face up to.
*moans* in about 6 minutes i have double history on why women were given the right to vote! please help me! *sobs*
Well i hope you are all having a better day than i am!
Love you all!

"sigh" Not long now to christmas eh?
I am one of the persons who does not believe in all this "commercialisation" (sp?) of Christmas. but what i do love is the fact that around christmas people are so lovely and kind. It always gives me a good feeling.
umm it is 2 weeks today i break up for christmas holidays!!! yay!
This saturday is my last rugby match for King's this season! I'm so thrilled! i have (touch wood!) lasted my first senior rugby season! yay! *high five*
But i hope you all enjoy December!

lots of love

Well i have just got back from my rugby game. now look this is always the situation for me, i NEVER look forward to rugby games, but when i'm there where the boots are flying i love it. Today sadly we lost. It was extremely emotional as it was some of our senior players last games. This season i have had a bit of stick, and again i did today. i cant really explain it, as most of you dont know the rules of rugby. but im getting it in the neck, when it is this other guy's fault. Believe me when i say i am not the person to blame other people for my mistakes, or find scape goats, im just telling the truth. He cant do his job properly and looks shit, who looks like a complete fucking retard.... ME! I just said to the coach after the game how i felt, and he understood what was happening, so that cheered me up. Don't get me wrong i am the first person to hold my had up and admit to my mistakes, but when it is not me making them, and it looks bad for me, i do get slightly annoyed. I'll try and put it in retrospect. Let's say you are in a marching band. You are lets say in a flute section. you are playing a very complicated and hard tune. You are just about coping with it, but the person next to you is playing poorly. How annoyed would you feel if people were blaming you???
But anyway it was a good game, and i was satisfied with my performance. in a moment i am going to the pub to watch the rugby England VS Samoa.
ummm oh yes. Last night i had some really good news! ummm yes i am very happy because of it. i uhhh wont say much more on that lol.
But anyway I do hope you all have a jolly good weekend! To all my American friends, hope you all had a great thanks giving, and enjoy the rest of your time off from school!
:hug

Ok guys sorry but i have a dilema! (sp?)
lol as usual this is over a girl!
This is very complicated...
i have this friend, who is a girl. We have been really good friends for a while now. The fact of the matter is i have stronger feelings for her than just "friends". It has been so painful to talk to her, and not show my feelings. im scared if i tell her how i feel, she might reject me and it will screw our sacred friendship up!
please i need your advice. i think i might tell her soon. but am i doing the right thing?

lots of love

Oh my god it is so cold! I had to play rugby yesterday, and i thought i was going to die! (bit of a exaggeration)
Today i also have rugby *moans* lol and i accidently packed these skimpy shorts for today! :fofl:
Yeah i enjoyed the weekend alot! I had ollie round for the 6th weekend in a row! lol i think he only comes over because of the pub! lol! Last night it was nice and cosey. i sat with James and my mum watching T.V.
ok you know how i said 2 weeks ago about how crap my camera was? Well i was a little naiive, as i actually know how to work it now, and it is pretty good. Plus i got photo workshop set up thanks to my friend James Agg
ummm looking forward to my photography course in january!
awww my girlfriend is annoying me at the moment. i think it is coming to the end... We met up last thursday, we had a row. i really felt like kicking her out the house (but of course i would never do anything like that) so we just argued for like 2 hours. It was her fault not mine! grrr! she is irritaing me at the moment. but i am in a awful situation. I cannot possibly break up with her as 1) she has a heart problem, which she is on medication for (she has had alot of operations)
2) she is always stressed out as she works full time)
3) we have been going out for like 2 years.
lol ok i must sound like a cruel hearted bastard. but i'm not, i just dont want to go out with her anymore. plus there are other girls i am interested in as well.
What do you suggest i do? be honest! Shall i stay with my girlfriend or shall i finish with her?
ok have a nice day!!! xxxx

lots of love
