We need a 'Not sure if Good or Bad yet, but will know in a couple of hours' thread. I would imagine it will thrive.

I have a story that could go in there!

 

I'm about to attempt to replace the bulb in my headlight and apparently it's quite tricky because I have to go through the wheel arch to get to it.

I had one earlier! Mashing recipes for Parmegiano and moussaka in a slow cooker. 7 hours of uncertainty. But it turned out pretty good, hoorah!

Had a pretty decent week in London. Visited the Imperial Aar Musuem in London and at Duxford, Toured the Emirates, went to the WB Harry Potter Tour at Leavesden Studios and met Nick Clegg outside Whitehall. All in all, a decent 6 days.

Yes yours was too short, and J7's was too long. Not suitable.

Will get my results in 2 hours...don't know whether I should post this in the good or bad stuff thread.

 

I'm freaking nervous. It could go either way. :hmm:

 

So, how did it go?

Can you please stop making these porn posts, the forum rules specifically prohibit it.

Each time I...there is a hair in my mouth pah fnahhh blarhhh! SPAH!

 

Ok! Each time I tidy my room I get rid of more and more stuff. :) Soon their will be nothing left. Some draws are now empty apart from those annoying bits that you just have? but don't want to get rid of like a miscellaneous wire, an apple fridge magnet that says I <3 NY, the bayeux tapestry, Mozart playing cards...etc.

 

Since I am coming up to 22 I've got an important documents shelf now. Complete with folders. :D

 

I recently got a moleskin diary as well (50% off) which is beautiful. :grin:

What you need is a chest. Chests are awesome. All kinds of chests are awesome, but I specifically mean the type with hinges.

 

I'd actually love to own significantly less stuff, but I am very much a pack-rat. I hate to throw things away. I imagine a time when I'll sit back and look at every piece of plastic crap and say "remember how awesome this was??" even though in reality a) I won't and b) it wasn't.

I got one of them too last year after some form of discount. It basically functions as a notepad now since there weren't as many happenings to actually warrant the use of a diary. I find a wall planner much more effective/accessible.

I boiled my worldly possessions down to a suitcase (... and, like, one box of stuff) nearly a year ago, and now I've amassed at least another suitcase worth of books I don't read, dvds I don't watch. Stuff. I might actually start spending my money on CLOTHES because lord knows my wardrobe needs it. 50% of it is 7 years old.

 

Other good stuff? Borderlands and pizza. Cider and been trying to learn a new chess opening. THRASHED CB (though he almost made me trip into a stalemate) and playing mike1988uk who [needs a new username] nearly got a sneaky check-mate (after just throwing his peices at me saying "here, take this!"

 

It's been hella warm recently. I need to get out. OUUUUT.

Our landlord's secretary (a seemingly unnecessary role) just came round and posted a sign on our door saying that an electrician will be coming in at 10am. I know they have to give 24 hours notice but the evil part of me is happy because I plan to be out by that time but my housemate and her friends will be passed out. Bit of karma after all the times they've woken me up.

I had a final assessment for a job today. Consisted of test, group presentation, individual presentation, and interview. I think it went well (hence the thread choice*), but I'll have to wait at least a week to find out.

 

*@bob where the hell is that "not sure yet" thread?

8 lessons in and I'm finally starting to get to grips with/ not completely despise learning to drive. Also, despite being ill all week, I feel amazing, though that's likely because I've had this week off work. Now to go to a 30th Birthday party, maybe rub in the fact that I'm 21 if I'm feeling evil.

 

...a 21 year old who can't drive. Maybe I won't :p

You'll probably go through a spell of hating it again before you pass.

Chest is a great shout you absolute artist. : peace:

 

Working towards chest format a 2013 goal.

 

Yes it is extremely difficult to get rid of things nostalgia often gets in the way like there was a book "Poems for 7 year olds" Not read it since then but as soon as I picked it up it's like awwwwwwwwww I remember this I may read it again.

 

*sticks it back on the shelf never to be touched*

Fair enough. :) I have started to write a lot down about my day or the things that meant the most to me on that day. (the little things I might forget) Movies I have watched (+what I rate it), story ideas, what time I wake up go to bed. It's not really used as a I have this on this day diary. More reflective. I also have a notepad for a larger Journal but I'm not starting that until my travels.

 

Plus I like carrying it around. :D

 

Today one of my notes is "I was the abomination of Obama's nation." (Kanye West)

 

 

@uəʌəsʎɐɾ I enjoyed our chess game would love to play again. :grin:

My sofas finally arrived - yipee!

 

My parents have bought some new leather sofas (the old ones are about 10 years old now), so they asked us if we wanted the old ones - I said yes and they turned up this morning.

 

Really easy to get in too and the house looks great now. I cleaned it all and taggled the doggy smell so we're set to go for our little house party thing next week.

 

Oh and my Game of Thrones coasters turned up. :D
