Amazon, why do you tease me?
Humph! I love amazon. I've said it before and I'll say it again, because I buy absoluetly everything from there. Everything! (OK, maybe not EVERYTHING, but about 90% of my purchases are Amazonian). I tend to trust everyone on Amazon, who have a rating of anything over 90% as you would, wouldn't you? well, I'm totally dissapointed with a recent purchase and am SENDING it BACK. I never send things back. I'm so useless at sending things back I still have shoes that don't fit me because I love them and I am too lazy to send them back. But this book is going back. 'near perfect' condition, they said. 'Like new'. What they failed to mention was that it is a book from a library. And its WELL read. Worn and pages torn. With the crappy plastic cover and... dare I say.. Yellow pages. I'm a book lover and demand all NEW books I buy be in mint condition to a certain extent. It was nly about £4 but that's not the point. If I went to a used book store I would buy a book as I have just described it. But from an Amazon seller, who said it was 'like new'. No. No sir, I won't stand for it. Back you go, and I'll be without a book for the next week. Grrr. Sorry - book ranting, and Amazon ranting. Whatever next?! Cold pizza from Dominoes? Sigh! sam

I have nothing to blog about but it doesn't stop me!
Heh!
I don't have anything in particular to blog about tonight. I am mostly bored and quite tired, but can't switch off so figure I will pass the time typing for no reason!
I went on a work 'do' on Thursday and it was hilarious. I always say I love the people I work with, and I really do! There is no denying we have some fun. We went out for food, where we basically just sat and laughed hysterically for about an hour - we are of all different ages, and from all different walks of life, but we all get on so well - even when we have little upsets with each other, we just get over it and get back to having fun so quickly its insane! So, there we were eating food and making a hell of a lot of noise and getting the worst looks off the people sat at the tables near us! Good times. We then went on to bowling. Wow - I'm bad at bowling. Every time I go bowling I always think that I'm not that bad, and then when it starts I realise just how bad I am! Not the worst, but certainly in no way good. But its not the winning that matters, its just hilarious to watch other people attempt to throw a ball down an alley, just to knock skittles over... who came up with this?!
We were all having a jolly time and after 3 games, the people who worked there offered us a game of laser quest for a pound each (usually £13 for 3 games). I seriously didn't think I would make it, as I was knackered from all the laughing and bowling (I still have sore legs from bowling for some reason) , but a few of us took part! I destroyed them all. They couldn't record our scores as the computers were down, but I'm pretty sure I won! I would suggest laser quest as a cardiovascular form of exercise too, because you sweat so much, and the adrenaline really kicks in! it should be implemented in school PE classes!
Nothing much has happened that's worth blogging about. I am still reading John Green's 'Looking for Alaska' - as I had to stop reading it due to the increasing sadness of the story line. I get too wound up in books that when bad things happen I feel really depressed like its happening to me... And don't even get me started on when a book ends! I don't know why I continue to read actually, as I only upset myself, but there is something so nice about living though someone else's eyes that keeps pulling me back in! One day I will write a book - and I will get to do that to someone else, and then the circle will be complete. Hah.
I must sleep... But I can't... humph.
Websites worth visiting:
WeheartIt - for all of its cool pictures
YouTube - for keeping me entertained constantly
Blogs worth reading:
BrandenArt - for cool conceptual art!
The Hayleylujah Chorus - for readable ramblings of one of my favorite Youtube Vloggers.
Albums worth listening to:
Mumford and Sons - Sigh no more
Inception - music from the motion picture
Working for a Nuclear free City - jojo burger tempest
Tv show's worth watching:
SABRINA THE TEENAGE WITCH! - Just started watching this again from season 1. Best TV show!
That is all!

Gosh.
Psh.
I'm so bored tonight. I was going to watch a movie, but I couldn't decide what kind of mood I was in, so I have literally just been on the internet for an age, clicking on all my favorite links to see what the haps is.
My favorite links are:
HitRECord
My friends travel blog
Google Docs
Open University student page
Facebook
Youtube
Twiter
Blogger
Hotmail
Amazon
GMail
Yahoo Mail
I know you don't care, but this is literally how bored I am.
I am also currently supposed to be working on song projects with a friend. Writing and what not, but I just can't for the life of me come up with anything that would be a helpful contribution. I think I'm just in a rut tonight. Meh!
I have finished all the books I wanted to read that are in my room... kind of. I'm still in the middle of a couple of them, but lost interest so will have to go back to them at a later date, but I can't bring myself to order the other books that I want/need - as this month has already been a costly one, and its only the 2nd day!
Oops.
I'm off to London for 3 days in a couple of weeks with my lovely boyfriend . We are staying in a very swanky hotel - unfortunately the reason for the visit is to attend a funeral but we are going to try to make it a pleasant trip. But what with that and having to pay my rent/ car getting serviced this month has already turned into an expensive one... I could really do with saving the month before i go part time...
Oh well!
I might go to sleep so when i wake up I can eat marmite on toast and have a massive cup of coffee... and I just remembered I'm working until 6pm. Brill!

Being bored...
OK
So, this is my first blog, and I am not really expecting people to read it, infact, I don't even know if I am going to tell anyone it is here.
I am just really bored right now, and was reading Jabazzy's blog (sorry if I just spelt that wrong!!), and realised that, having a Gmail account, I could blog too, without all the annoying signing up rituals one usually has to go through in order to make an account somewhere... I seriously dont know why that would make me want to start one, but meh! When I am bored, like I am now... insanely, I tend to just do what comes to mind first.
I have actually always wanted to do a blog. Well, no. I always wanted to do a youtube-y thing, like vids or vlogging, but never had any inspiration of what to do, so i thought i would just blog, which i sometimes do on my myspace page, which no one reads but me... anywaaaaaay.... I always get caught up in other peoples blogs. I dont know why. But I LOVE reading what other people have to say, even if its mindless ranting, which is what I do best. Its a nice escape really... so why can't I do it? well, I can, and I will, so I am.
On a side note, I am SO tired right now, and can't face another day at work tomorrow. Gawd, I need a holiday!!!
Peace out.
