| Hey all!
How's everything going?
Well for those of you know or don't know, I have been on about moving out of the flat that i was in with my brother and Matt. I finally have moved out! I moved out in to my new place last Thursday, with the help of Boox. I've settled in already, my room is pretty huge too. almost 3 times bigger than the one I used to have, which is better because I do have quite a bit of stuff. Plus it has a BED, no more sleeping on a matress on the floor. Damn people breaking my bed, you know who you are. Lol. 
Unfortunately I don't have the net so I won't be able to keep in touch for a while, but I am sorting that out. For the time being I can check this, my emails and my space at my dads. Which is trés cool.
Right must dash food is on and I wanna carrying on watching 24.
Take care all, love ya! x

my god! It's been absolutely ages since I last posted on here. Last
year in fact was the last time I posted. I was still playing Pro 5
football (soccer for all you Americans out there). I think ever since I
became an assistant manager for one of our branches in Goulcester, I
stopped posting. I was pretty busy then and doing a lot of late shifts
too, which certainly didn't help. Normally I would say I'm gonna keep
up with my posting on a regular basis. However I somehow doubt that
will be the case, but I most certainly will try, damnit!
A lot has actually happened since then, I've worked my way up the
ladder in Timpsons, I'm now a manager. I've been one since last
September, not bad going as I'd only been with the company 9 months by
then so go me!  I also was my regional
manager's branch of the week and got £15 for it. Considering there are
only 3 RM's in the company and there are over 500 shops UK wide, I
think that's pretty damn amazing. I guess He has about a couple of
hundred shops that he has to ensure they're all running to their best.
He gave me the branch of the week after visiting my branch and was well
impressed on the day and told me to keep up the good work. I'm back in
the Mall branch as of Monday for 3 weeks, as Tara who works there needs
a break from it, so I was asked if I was ok to swap temporarily, she
called me a God send for it. I'm not fussed either way where I work, as
long as I'm able to do my job to it's full potential.
I bought myself a new car too, since my old one decided to completely
pack up on me. I got myself a nice VW Golf, for £4,500, which isn't too
bad for a cvar which is six years old. It runs like a dream too. ^_^
Which is more than I cvan say for my old car which caused so many
problems to no end. I was glad to get rid of it. Heh.
I'm also gaining more and more computer accessories. I bought myself a
new laptop, so now I have a laptop and a PC. I also bought a new TFT
(flat screen) moniter, scanner and printer. Which all work lovely. The
laptop is handy for when I visit my dad, because when I'm there I can
continue with artwork and play Final Fantasy XI online, also I can
still browse the net. Same goes for when I visit my friends at their
respective universities.
In October Rachel visited me for my birthday week, which was really
nice. It was good to see her again in person. Though I do regret not
paying more attention toward her, I still feel a little bad for it.
We're not together anymore, this was a mutual decision for both of us.
We had a long conversation about it, details we promised to keep to
ourselves. And I intend to do just that. We still keep in touch which
is a good thing, she is a star and I never want to loose contact with
her as she is one of my best friends. Also I will always be there for
her, and I know the same goes in reverse, which is always good! ^_^
Anywho I'm gonna go for a bath and relax from a days work. Got tomorrow
off so I get the chance to relax a bit and also finish off cearing out
my room, throwing away crap and rearranging all the stuff I'm going to
keep.
I also got a new and up to date pic of myself.
Take care everyone.

Hey all, how goes it? Hope everyone who is reading this is doing well.
I've not got back from Pro 5. For those who does not know what that is.
It's a place that holds 5-a-side football leagues ( that's soccer for
you American readers). We played a team called the Wonderers, we did
hold our own for the first 20-30 minutes keeping it 3-3, however a few
errors on our part gave them the advantage. They eventually won 12-4 I
did manage to pull off a few good saves to keep us in it in the first
30 minutes (I'm the goal keeper by the way) but it is hard when you're
only restricted to your own area, which is tiny. I got taken out at one
point, as one of the players from the Wanderers slid to get the ball
but I got it and he took my legs out. But it was ok, since we are
playing on astro turf, which is covered in sad/grit. Got myself a few
new bruises and grazes from it too. 
Todays result isn't THAT bad, considering 5-a-side is totally different
from your normal 11-a-side. We are improving and that result showed it.
Considering our past results have been 12-0 loss, 15-1 loss, 23-3 loss
and 19-0 loss. So we are slowly improving. We are new to the whole
5-a-side and are still getting used to it, but we've made some good
friends there, and the other teams are telling us not to be too down
hearted as we're only new, but we will improve over time. Fitness is
the main thing amongst our team, but we all are improving on that.
Other than Pro 5, I've been pretty busy at work. My area manager Gareth
said he'd like me to cover some shops on my own on peoples days off.
It'll be good experience for me and it will be a chance to get my speed
up. Colin, Tara and Simon all say it's a good thing. Plus they all
think I'm ready to cover other shops. So I'm pleased for that. Also I'm
hoping Gareth will accept my request to move my holiday (vacation)
dates back to October from late June so Rachel, Jason and Tonya can
visit me for my birthday weeks from the United States. It will be
really awesome if they are able to visit then, provided I get my
holiday rrequest. It'll be especially good if Rach visits. ^_^
Anywho I'm gonna sign off now. Take it easy and I'll speak to you later.

| - We'll All Get LaidMonday, 23rd of May, 2005. 19:52.
I've been meaning to update this for some time now, I just haven't had
time due to work mostly. The last update that I did was before I went
to the United States, which was a fantastic trip, of course.
I had a cracking time, got to go to some of Rachel's classes, which was
pretty interesting. I kept getting asked all sorts of random questions
about myself, England, just anything really. My favorite one, which was
asked by some kid, whos name I can't remember was: "Is it a sin to not
drink tea at tea time?" It's the one that stuck in my head for the most
part, still is in there, somewhere. I also got to go to the prom, which
again was pretty cool. We weren't there the whole time. Rach, Tonya,
Pattie and myself all went to a cajun restaurant, where I tried white
gravy for the first time. It was really nice, considering I didn't
realize it was gravy until I ate half of my steak. We also went
paintballing, which was totally awesome, pitching myself on the ground
picking people off is fun. We also had
fun with bubbles! There is a lot more but these are just a few events
that happened. Though I still need to get the photos develpoed. Which I
will soon.
Aty the mo I'm trying to put my holiday date dack from June to October,
being my birthday week in all. My area manager Gareth said it shouldn't
be a problem changing my summer hols to a winter one. So I hope he
accepts my request.
A lot has happened over the last two months since I've been back, which
has kept me pretty busy as I mentioned before. I know one of the things
that has happened was my mums birthday in which my brother and I got
her a really nice and expensive watch. I can't be fussed to write all
the details down now. I will at somepoint...... Probably.
Anyway I'm gonna bust a move and head out. Take it easy and I'll see you guys later.

'Lo people.
Only six more days to go for when I embark on my trip to the states.
Boy I need this holiday, I certainly cannot wait for it. I am needing
it that's for sure.
My computer has ceased to function when I put a new motherboard in it.
It was given to me by Matt and it's fryed, he bought it off an online
auction on the dabs.com website, so I think he got conned big time
there. Ah well it's no big deal I didn't pay for it. I've bought a new
one whic won't be delivered until Monday the 14th, but OH!! I'll be on
holiday by then. So I can set it all up when I get back with no
problems, hopefully.
I'm gonna shoot off back home now. I'll catch up with you ladies and gentlemen when I'm in the states. Take it easy.
