Listening to music I used to listen to when I was 13 reminds me of happier times despite it being very angst-filled
My Old House...
Last night, I dreamt about my old house… It’s the third night in a row I’ve dreamt about it. There was a leaking water pipe coming from the garage that progressively got worse throughout the dream. It all seemed kind of dull and I was panicking that the pipe would burst and flood the house.
I even remember the smell.
“Things are getting worse but I feel a lot better.”
The Internet...
…What an utter pile of bollocks.
How many followers do I have on Twitter now? Has someone replied to my Facebook status update?! Will I say something funny today?! What’s this? A new friend request?! Oh my!
Social networking has no longer become a place for us to share links, let others know about events or just chat. It’s defining our social status. It’s boosting our...

Brutal Honesty
I feel like the only way I can be truly honest is to be brutally honest. I’m talking about saying the things people are scared to say in case they offend someone. The things people hold back from saying but they still think. The jokes people don’t make because they’re ‘too much’ or ‘too soon’ but they still cross their minds.
I thought about not posting...

The old grey donkey, Eeyore stood by himself in a thistly corner of the Forest, his front feet well apart, his head on one side, and thought about things. Sometimes he thought sadly to himself, “Why?” and sometimes he thought, “Wherefore?” and sometimes he thought, “Inasmuch as which?” and sometimes he didn’t quite know what he was thinking about.

Money doesn't make you a proper driver.
I was recently watching Fifth Gear… because that’s what you do when you don’t work through the week. They were reviewing a car, quite expensive as I recall. The reviewer said… “This really is a proper drivers car”
I disagree with that. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be writing about it, would I?
I disagree with that because people with a bit of money will now...

“We’re shagged… We’re absolutely shagged!”
Early Morning...
…It’s a time I’ve become used to. Not because I’m an ‘early bird’ but because I can’t seem to fall asleep before midnight. In fact, sometimes I can’t even fall asleep before 6am.
It’s supposedly a ‘cool’ problem to have in life. Many teenagers pride themselves on how late they’ve stayed up and how wrong their sleeping pattern...
...You're running late, Sir?
I hate time. Why can’t everyone just forget about time and let things happen when they happen?
What time are you meeting me at? This train is late. The schedule is ruined!
I’ve never been a fan of time or being at a particular place at a particular time ‘on the dot’. I usually end up arriving late due to circumstances beyond my control… sure, you can argue and say...
Autumn & Winter...
We’re at the tail end of the Summer and I miss Autumn and Winter. Sure, sounds miserable doesn’t it? I’ve come to terms with the fact that we’re not getting any more ‘sunny’ weather in this country. Our Summer is over. I miss the rain. I miss the dark nights and I miss the mood that comes with it.

The Public Toilet System...
Public toilets have always disgusted me… People pissing on the floors, saliva in the soap, the threat of excrement being smeared on the toilet roll… the list goes on really.
When holding it in is no longer an option, one must have a system in order to tackle the complications and issues that arise within the public restroom.
Step 1) Upon entering, always open the door using your...

Work, Life & Sleepless Nights
I’m not going to go in to a stupid apology most bloggers go in to when they fail to update their blog regularly… eventually their blog just becomes filled with apologies because they have nothing else to say whilst they can’t really catch on to the idea of blogging regularly.
I’ve started work… a word that wasn’t really in my vocabulary for a year or two since...
Who Is On Twitter? →
merlin:
yourmonkeycalled:
people who are just back from a really awesome run
people who are involved with “computers”
people who are involved in “social networking” and optimizing the power of re-Tweeting and “computers”
people who really like the news
people who are hungry
people who are back from an OK run
people who are cold
The full list is great.
