Impressive.

That's what I've got to say about the Playstation 3. Down right impressive.

My brother bought his about a week or 2 ago but I only got my first proper play of it last night. I had a go of Motorstorm - so much fun XD. The crashes are proper great, heheh, especially if you're on a motorbike/quadbike. Then he showed me the demo of SKATE that he'd downloaded and that looked like good fun. We turned it off after a few mins though because he wanted to show me Warhawk. How great is that game?! Warhawk, I mean. Haha, after he'd shown me the basics of how to play it we joined a proper game (it's an online game) with loads of other people on it. We snuck into the enemy team's base but we got spotted so we were hiding in this little tower thing. The next minute our Craig's character has been killed and he's telling me to move out of the tower. Thing is, I didn't realise he had been killed so I stayed in the tower where I could see another player (thinking it was my brother) and got sliced to death XD. Sounds pretty lame right now, but it was funny at the time lol.

Anyway, after hearing a few bad things about the PS3, I was surprised by how good (and really clever) that console really is. 'Tis reccomended - if you have the money!

Grapes HAS MOVED

You can now find the epic story of 'Grapes' at the new blog www.mysweetchestnut.blogspot.com
I will post on here every time a new chapter is added.

If you are new to Grapes why not try Chapter 1:

Chapter 1
Leon woke up hot and sweaty. It had been like this since Ramon Salazar died in Ramon's castle. Oddler Saddler was nowhere to be seen and as for Ramon, well, Leon has disposed of him. So Leon decided to live in the castle with his dead friend's body, Luis.
Ashley heard Leon's footsteps. She'd told her dad she wanted to stay with Leon. Leon had objected but Ashley insisted. She didn't want to miss Leon's next adventure. They had killed El Gigante, Delago, the Bella Sisters, Doctor Salvador, Bitores Mendez and, of course, Ramon. Ashley had decided she would rather risk her life for fun than be bored in the White House. She closed her eyes and fell to sleep.
"Woof," barked Razzle. Leon had saved him from a trap while he was looking for Ashley. Leon and Razzle had also killed El Gigante. Razzle adored Leon so Leon kept him.
"Woof."
"Shush Razzle, you'll wale up Ashley."
"Woof."
"Oh Razzle shu...oh my god."
Leon dropped the milk on the floor. And a grape.

The Horror Returns!

Yeah, so we went back to school today. It's still the same pile of crap that it used to be but I have to admit the day wasn't all too bad. In the morning we just stayed in form till break and then had double geography (which was really easy). In the afternoon all we had was double science which was also really easy. I actually quite like the class I'm in, they seperated top set into two and there's pretty much no scumbags in the class. Hehe, the teacher even said we'll be watching parts of Terminator because it has something to do with speed or something. I'm hoping that it'll be a part from the first one with good ol' Kyle in it, but I can't help thinking it'll be from no.3 :(. Oh, but wait, it'll probably be next week when I'm not gonna be in. Damn. Ah well, I'll get over it.

800th Birthday, 50-something-th Birthday, 20th Birthday

There's been three birthdays over these past three days. The first, the 800th birthday, was Frank's. The robot who lives in my garage.

Although, seeing as how I don't know a Frank, don't know any robots (unfortunately) and don't have a garage this probably isn't true.

The truth is it was the city of Liverpool's 800th birthday on Tuesday. Some funky costumes & sculpture-things in the parade and fireworks in the night. To be honest, I've seen better fireworks.

Yesterday was my mum's birthday. She wanted to go and see Hairspray so we rode into town on the bus, met my sister outside her work to give her the house key and then walked down to the Odeon. I wasn't too fussed over seeing the flick, but it turned out to be pretty fun, entertaining and enjoyable. Corny as hell, yeah, but good none-the-less. In the evening, our Craig & Sarah decided to take us all out for tea at Wetherspoons. BBQ Chicken Melt needs a...a...well, I've sat here for a few minutes and can't think of a word, so, that's that.

And today is my sister's 20th birthday. Honestly, you'd think it was her 70th birthday or something, the way she was saying to me last night, "Oh, I'm getting old Lydia!! Tell me how old I am!!" "You're 19 Sarah. 19 for another hour or so." "Tell me again how old I am!" "You're 19." "Again." "You're 19." "Again."......
This really did happen. At about 11 oclock at night too. Heh, it was kinda funny though. In a weird sort of way.
We're not doing anything special today as a family because she's having a party at her own house. I wish her luck with that!

Well, that's all there is to say.

Toodles.

Trogdor Tee

Well I actually got up (kinda) early today. I still got to watch The Crystal Maze though, I only got up an hour earlier than my normal 10:30. Anyway, it was that time again - time to go the hairdressers. Ugh. I mean, I like it when my hairs done and stuff, but I just hate going. I always feel pressurized (sp?) into talking to them but I never know what to say lol. And this time round the girl who was blow-drying my hair did it so it kinda 'curled' under my chin abit and, yeah, it looked nice when it was first done & everything but as soon as I arrived in the lovely seaside town of Southport at dinnertime KABLAMO! it was wrecked. As soon as I got in the door before I just ran for the straighteners. Seriously. And she said she'd blow-dried it STRAIGHT. My butt to that! I shouldn't complain really, they're nice people who do your hair, but still, it kinda annoyed me.

Anyway, I just wasted a whole bloomin' paragraph on that, even though that's not my main topic for this post. The main course is (yes, as the title suggests), today, as I walked to Central Station to meet my sister, with my mother in tow, I saw, a man, with...A TROGDOR T-SHIRT! Really! He was just crossing the road when I shouted, "Whoa!! He has a Trogdor t-shirt!". I was in serious awe. Serious. I've seen them in the store on the site like, but to actually see it in person......gaspeth.

Hehehe, I've still got 'I'll make a man out of you' in my head. Yes. The song off Mulan. The BEST song off any film I can think of at this precise moment. What makes it even better is Jackie Chan sings the Chinese (?) version of it! Shocking, I know!

Anywho, I'm probably boring you (even though I doubt anyone actually reads all this crap) so I better go. We may be watching Heroes tonight! Huzzah! Peter & Hiro should really...run for Presidents of the World or something. They deserve it dammit!

...

Toodles.

Wish Me Luck

I've got two Biology Science tests tomorrow. That four hour revision session yesterday better not have been for nothing.

Wish me luck.

Too Much Pressure.

You know, my school is full of loons. Seriously. And not the amazingly-hilarious variety either.

I'm in year 9, right, and I dunno what it's like for other countries or whatever but we're not meant to start our GCSEs till next year - year 10. But no, the freakin' Academy has to have us starting our GCSEs a year EARLY don't they?! Yeah, it doesn't sound like a bad idea but when you're having all this "you've got a big test next week, so come here's a million tests for you to practise with" thrown at you when we haven't actually ever experienced any type of pressure like this before in our lives is just....nasty.

Like for instance, we just did our GCSE Statistics exam yesterday when it was actually meant to only be taken by the year 11s. This exam also had coursework to be completed with it too though, so we've had to come in on Saturdays twice (plus once for revision, which I didn't go to) to do that. The thing that really gets on my wick though, is the fact that WE HAVE NOT BEEN TAUGHT ANY OF THIS CRAP BEFORE!!!!!!!! 'Cause even in the coursework sessions they just basically TELL you what to write, not TEACH you it. Damn, that test was hard. And we have up to four (although luckily I only have two) science tests on Monday, which we have to go to a revision session tomorrow for. Okay, I know they're trying to help you get the best grade possible & all that (although I can't help thinking they just want you to do well so they look good for their bosses) but seriously, WHO wants to wake up at 8am on a Saturday morning after getting up at 7 every day for school the previous week. And that means that really we only have a one day (ONE DAY!) weekend. It's absolutely diabolical it is.

You know, I could rant all day about maths tests, ICT coursework (although I DID find out I got a grade B today for the unit, which I was happy about), Miss Askew, the rest of her evil minions, the skanks & scumbags that wreck my life daily, and all the rest of it. I honestly could. I mean, I used to think my life wasn't all that great & that I hated school & everything but, to tell the truth, if I'd known what the NLA was going to be like, I might of actually appreciated everything I had.

ZOMG?!!"!11 TWO HOLIDAYS!!!

Time: 5:41pm

Booyah! My mum and dad told me last night that we're going to Salou for 3 nights in July! Yay! I don't think I've ever had two holidays in one year before (we're going to Majorca in September, that was booked ages ago) and not only that, but it's the day after I finish school for summer! So I get a holiday at the start of summer & at the end! Sweet sweet joy. God, I can't wait now.

Squuuuuuuueeeeeeeeeeee!

Playmobil!

Time: 12:03pm

Hehe, my sister got back from her holidey in Rhodes yesterday and she just gave me & my brother our presents - little Playmobil people! (bare in mind we are both over the age 10, my brother being over the age of 20 XD)
I got a little pirate dude (his beard is truely fabulous) and Craig got a little snowboarding dude.

Toys are so great!

Erm...Head check for a Miss K please?

Time:17:00

Riiight, I had a dream last night that someone stole my Subway sandwich...

...

Yeah, I know how this sounds.

Strange thing is, I've never even been to Subway in my life. It was really vivid as well, I can even remember choosing the stuff to go on it - chicken, lettuce & tomato sauce. It was so weird. One minute I was holding the Subway sandwich & the next I was holding no Subway sandwich. Hahahaha! It's so random! Even randomer than that dream with Bill Clinton...

FF Dreams

Holy crap, my friends are insane. Well Becky & Jade anyway. They both had dreams the other night about Final Fantasy (yes, they are obsessed) and they were both pretty hilarious. Well Becky's was, while Jades....was kinda disturbing more than anything else. But that's another story. Here's Becky's (she's turned it into a script. Lydia is moi):

Jade house in an unknown room.

(Jade, Becky and Lydia are playing final fantasy 12. The PS2 blow up.)
Jade:(reeling in horror) omg what has happen to my PS2.
Lydia:(also reeling) a fuse may have blown.

Jade: I love you
Balthier:excuse me but may i have some water?
Jade: I love you
Balthier:excuse me but may i have some water?
Jade: I love you
Balthier:excuse me but may i have some water?
(above convosation continues in the backgroud).

Lydia:So what do you do?
Vaan:I want to be a sky pirate. I love being in the air.
Lydia:Like faeries?
Vaan:Yep.
Lydia:Cool

(Becky in the background).

Becky: This is disturbing.

(Basch, Fran, Ashe and Penelo enter through the T.V. Jade's mum enter through a door with a tray of tea. jades conversation is still in the background. The conversation fades in to the main talk.)

Jade: I love you
Balthier:excuse me but may i have some water?
Jade: I love you
Balthier:excuse me but may i have some water?
Jade: I love you
Balthier:excuse me but may i have some water?
Jade: I love you
Balthier:Does she have mental issues?

(Lydia is talking to Vaan)

Lydia:So do you have a girlfriend?
Vaan:Nope.
Lydia:A boyfriend?
Vaan:(hands on hips) No way, girlfriend.
Lydia:Do you have a pig?
Vaan:No

( Becky is plaiting fran's hair and talking to Ashe.)
Ashe:Boys are like so immature
Becky:Tell me about it
Ashe:I mean you like totally get your hair done all like gorgeous and they go all girl on you.
Becky:Well yano men.
Fran:They are just like mist.

Basch goes to the t.v. and plonks the T.V.

Basch: yay no more game.

Yeah.

Back to school tomorrow. How terrible.

Why do they ruin our lives like this?!

I think I might draw a comic strip of Underlord Gay Askew getting burned or something. Oh how I wish she'd burn.

Mwy warnt mwy bwadges...

Time: 9:32pm
Bopping to: Kinghts of Cydonia - Muse

My badges (y'know little ones that you stick on your bag or coat or something) are officially lost. They have been for a couple of weeks (maybe even months) but I've asked around and no one has no idea where the hell they have gone. *weeps* WHERE ARE YOU GODDAMN IT?!!??! It took me ages to collect all of them and I even spent £1.50 (yes, ONE POUND FIFTY!) on my Mighty Boosh kittens one because I saw it on eBay and was just, well, drueling basically. Owh, it isn't fair.

I think I'm slightly hyperactive.

(Oh, I didn't explain what the title of the previous post was all about. Well sorry but I can't be bothered now. That time has passed.)

CRAP I FORGOT ALL ABOUT MY ENGLISH HOMEWORK AGAIN! Oh. Noes.

Where are you??

High off the Big One buzz.

Time: 9:27pm

*Belts out Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart"*

I'll explain the title in a future post.

Blergh.

I'd just like to say that from now on this is literally going to my online diary thing. So be prepared for some crazy ramblings.



Time: 4:15pm

Ever feel like crap for no real reason?

I do. Right now in fact.

Not even listening to 'Collide' is cheering me up. Heurgh.

Half term starts on Monday and it's my birthday on Sunday. Enrichment week in school has been so rubbish, I think I've been crippled by that stupid army training thing. I'm thinking of sueing.

Hello from Box World Central.

Email Address'

I'm just writing down all of my email addresses (there's a few) because I'll easily forget them.

• roxykneen@hotmail.com (old, use it rarely)
• roxykneen@yahoo.co.uk (old, never use)
• jumbo-large-address@hotmail.co.uk (my new public address, use if you want to get in contact)
• And...

...I think I'll leave it at that. I don't want everyone knowing my main address XD

So here it is...

...December, not long till Christmas now - WHEE! This year has zoomed by. It doesn't seem like it's been 3 months since the summer.

Stuff that's...urm...happening
I went to see Casino Royale with Becky on Saturday. Great film but I'm still not sure whether Daniel Craig is James Bond (well of course he is but, whatever). Yeah, he's good and everything but is he the James Bond? Meh, maybe it's just me being stupid. I swear, that man must wear contact lenses. His eyes are freakishly blue. Freakishly.

Only one more week of school before that darned 'Enrichment Week'. At least we can go to the science museum in Manchester on the Wednesday for free. Yeah, I've been before (and it's slightly boring at times) but it beats school that's for sure. Our english teacher said we were meant to be going to a pantomime too but who knows.

Toodles

LOST

Hoorah, Lost Season 3 starts on Sunday!

I bet a few people aren't too happy that it's moved from Channel 4 to Sky One. My uncle included - he'll be coming up every Sunday night to watch it now (or we'll record it for him, whatever). My brother started watching it a couple of weeks ago because he downloads them on his PC and he said this series is going to be about the Others. Hopefully we'll finally get some answers about them. Although, being Lost, if we find out one piece of information a whole new round of mysterious-ness will start. It's one vicious circle of "What the hell?" that show. For instance, in the last series we found out the button in the hatch was 'real' (didn't we? It confused me...) but then at the very end it looked like that woman (Desmond's girlfriend?) had found the island, leaving you with a pretty blank face. Followed by a scrunched up confused-looking one. Hmm.

Oh well, all that's left to say is - Let the strangeness begin.
