Just John. - My life In A Nutshell

Guess who is back?

John — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 19:30:54 +0000

For now atleast. Well, I know it’s been a very long time since my last post and nothing has changed much since. College is more than half way done and I have decided I am going to leave after this year. I dunno what I am going to do or even what I want to do, everthing is just so confusing and just seems, well, pointless.

I am still arguing more than ever with my parents and sisters so it’s at breaking point. I really can’t stand them. The sooner I get a job and save for my own place and own things, the better.

I dunno if I should just delete this blog or not. I’m not any good at blogging (or anything else).

It;s been too long

It really has. I’ve been super busy with other things in my life, like college work that I didn’t have time to update. I’m not going to say I’m sorry for it though because I am free to update this WHENEVER I want

I’m pretty content at the moment, we have 4 weeks off college because the old college building is getting knocked down and we are moving to a new one. In the mean time, I have to make two websites (on the dryest subjects ever) and make a portfolio for a tattoo shop. Plus other various pieces of work for college.

Not much has changed, a couple of things here and there I guess.

I promise I will update just too busy right now.

Take care.

Is it really an excuse?

Okay, I wanted to write about something with a little more meaning to it, rather than just what went on in my boring day, so I decided to write about something that I think about alot and It really bugs me.

The way killers & rapists an other criminals use their childhood as an excuse. My parents watch a lot of crime channels on tv and stuff so it kind of got me thinking about it. Don’t get me wrong, if you were abused in your childhood then that’s horrible but that’s no excuse for killing someone and raping them. ALOT of people get abused in their childhoods, most of them don’t go out and kill someone or rape them, they try to work and make it better for them and their future family. I’m not saying that it wouldn’t leave behind mental and physical scars but I just don’t think it’s a proper excuse when charged with a murder or whatever. If they were abused and stuff, why wouldn’t they want it better for themselves and try to work for a better life?

I also hear of people that were sexually abused in their childhood, then when they grow up they do it to their children? WHY on earth would you want the SAME thing to happen to your own? I just don’t get it.

Anyway, in other things, the party on Saturday was AMAZING. It was really fun and I had a good time letting go and just relaxing. I ended up sleeping on the floor at someones house. I also got money so I’m buying a new pair of VANS slipons and I bought a haste the day t-shirt. I dunno what else to spend it on, I’m sure I will find something. I may start to save up for a car now, I want to go where I want when I want and it’s not always easy using public transport.

I’m going to go cook some lunch for myself now, thinking of making some chicken with sweet onion sauce. I’ll post again soon and tell you about my new college class when it starts. Bye for now.

Birthday, College again, Other

Hey guys just thought I’d catch up and post again and just write what I have planned for the next month or so.

Well, On Sunday this week it is going to be my birthday, My family was having a party for my sister and her boyfriends wedding the day before my birthday, so we are going to celebrate my birthday at the party too. So it should be fun, I’m going to be 17 this year so I guess that’s a another year over with. I’m really exited for this party though, will be nice to just relax in the nice weather, have a BBQ and get legless.

Also, college should be starting again soon, we have our induction day for it on the 12Th of August. This summer holiday has flew past and I still need to get a proper job. I guess I never really did what I set out to achieve. There’s always more time I guess. I’m not really looking forward to going back because this summer has been quite good but I guess I have too.

I also just wanted to say sorry I haven’t updated in a while I was meaning to update sooner but was just too lazy. Bad me?

P.S : 222 views?! Thanks!

A little something..

So, if any of you have ever used wordpress, you will know yourself that it is pretty hard to get it the way you want or to make it a little more personal if you don’t have credits to add your own CSS. I was trying to think of ideas to add things to this blog, I added some more widgets to fill up the space and keep it nice but other than that, there isn’t much I can do. I was going to add a shout box, but wordpress seems to block the code for it, for some reason, so that went out the window, I’ll try and mess around with it and see if I can get it to work.

In other thoughts, I have fallen out with my parents again. I sound like your typical teenager right? Always moaning and falling out with my parents all the time. It gets pretty hurt full when your dad keeps saying “move the fuck out then!” every time you have a bad day or need a little help. So I kind of stopped talking to them. I’m really past caring about it now, as soon as I have enough money (if ever) I’ll be out of here, making my own way in the big wide world (with, or without my parents by my side I don’t really know at this time). I’m feeling pretty content at the minute, I’m pretty exited for my sisters wedding which should be happening on the 28Th? of August. I get to wear a snazzy suit.

I’ve also been working on a couple of new website concepts, I was going to move this blog over to a website and have it’s own design and everything but, I kind of like this blog the way it is, so I decided not to. Other than that, I have been really sick of the computer, it’s like, every forum I used to go onto, or website has died. Even msn messenger, it’s like nobody comes on anymore. So it’s starting to get a bit boring. If ANYONE would like to talk with me on msn, please add me! triviumfan51153@hotmail.co.uk

Help a person in need..add them to msn.

OH! I almost forgot, I have almost hit the 100 pageviews mark, so that isn’t too bad at all! Thanks to whoever visits. It makes it a little more worthwhile that someone takes the time to actually read this thing.

Bye for now, once again.

Okay, so I’ve seen quite a few videos on youtube.com over the past 2 years complaining about “emo” and such. Personally, I’m so sick of hearing that word it’s not even funny. I don’t have anything against the emo music genre or “scene” people. Heck I think it’s quite a nice style. I dunno what so many people have against it, it’s a teenage fad. I’ve also seen some emo hate videos from full grown adults. I’d just like to say, weren’t they kids once? Didn’t they ever do things to fit in with their friends when they were at school? It’s all part of the growing up process, to find out for yourself and who you are. All this hate towards it is really silly. It’s just something that really bugs me. Anyway, I’m really sick of seeing comments on the “subject” and videos. Let kids do what they want and dress the way they want, why should it matter?

In other things, I’ve been pretty down, I’ve been quite ill lately with my bowel disorder and stuff. I also was wanting to think of things to write about. Oh yeah! My dad got a new video camera and we can transfer videos to the computer with it, so I should be able to start making a couple vlogs soon when I can get the chance and the privacy to do so.

I’ve also been really addicted to this band called “Demon Hunter”. Their songs are amazing and really mean something, they arn’t just about breaking up with a girlfriend or whatever. I’d check them out if you are into the metal genre.

Oh and one more thing, check out this forum: Biffy clyro forums.

It’s a fan forum for a Scottish band called biffy clyro, they are really good. Even if you ain’t a fan, it’s still a pretty good forum to visit.

Ciao.

Mise à jour aléatoire

Hey people, hows things.

Not been up to much as always, just been getting things ready for my sisters wedding which will be happening in late august. This morning I finally got my bank card through the post, so I can fill out some forms for college. It’s all good I guess. I’m pretty content at the moment, my dad just gave me £100 to spend on myself out of the blue, so that was nice I guess. My parents don’t earn a massive income so I wasn’t expecting it. I needed to get new clothes anyway so it came just in time.

I got new jeans, a black cardigan thingy, a t-shirt and this jacket thing. It all looks really good. I’m getting new vans (slip-on shoes, not a van) too. Other than that, nothing much has been happening, I really need to get in gear and get a job..I keep meaning too but it’s not an exiting thought I guess.

It’s pretty hard thinking of things to wright about since nothing major happens to me. I’m just an average joe that does average things.

Here are the pictures of the things I bought though:

So Yeah, I’m happy.

Possibly moving to spain!?

John — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 21:54:45 +0000

Yeah, My whole family are thinking of packing up and moving over to Spain. I hope we do, it would be like a fresh start and a chance to move on from some of the bad things that have happened here. Also, the weather is just better. It’s a nice thought though, sun most days and it’s generally a more outgoing and out door lifestyle over there, which is what I need. Obviously my parents would have to buy and sell our house, and possibly save up more money so it won’t be like, next week or anything.

On another note, I haven’t posted in a while, to be honest, I have had nothing to really post about and I don’t want to post just for the heck of it.

Um, what else have I done? Nothing!

I just had a heart attack.

John — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 02:20:19 +0000

Okay, so it is currently 3:15am here in Scotland. About ten minutes ago, I saw a small spider with six legs running about the wall. I thought “Okay, just get a shoe or something a squash it really quick” so I did, I got a heart attack from that and need the bathroom after I did. So as I walked out the door, feeling proud that I went near a spider, in the corner of my eye, I saw another. This this was fricking huge. I had a heart attack and went running in the seating area, woke my dad up and he had to kill it. I’m still shaking from seeing it. Gah.

I wonder why I am so scared of spiders. I know alot of people have a phobia of them but mines is out of control. It’s there creepy little legs running about fast.

I hope it’s dead now. I feel bad that it had to die because it was probably just trying to find a nice place to catch bugs but the look of them just makes me have a fit. Now I have to stay up all night because I am to scared to go back into the hallway. haha.

College is DONE!

John — Mon, 09 Jun 2008 21:13:58 +0000

Yep, I completed college today and also received an invite to join next years course. I’m pretty happy. I also had a maths exam today that I didn’t do so well on. I failed. I can always try again next year though. I’m just glad it’s over with for now.

Now I just have to think about what I am going to do with all this spare time.
