Yesterday, I went out to the shops!!! :eek: To buy clothes!!! :eek: Now, it took me about 5 minutes to find what I needed... But my mum was the one paying. So when she finally arrived in the shop, we spent another half hour or so walking past pretty much every shirt, with my mum saying, "oh this is nice. Do you like this?" She was quite slow on realizing that I was just saying "no" to everything. :lol: The only entertaining thing I got out of it was evading fat people in the store and making comments amongst myself about how gross they were. :lol:

Thats why I tell my parents to go away while I get what I want. I come back quick, and they're like "oh, you're done already?" and I'm like, "um yeah? I'm not like you taking 2 hours to walk through the store to buy 2 shorts and a pair of jeans" :lol:
 
Lol dude my mom asked me to come with her to the apple store a month cause she had a problem with her phone and knows nothing. I said ok but you have to walk all throughout the mall first to get there. It was just like when i was a kid where she stopped to look at every item of clothes or shoes. Took forever to get there just for them to say make an appointment first.

Crazy. Blow up and subsequent fallout (and everything that entails) with best friend and romantic interest (gross, I know sorry). Trailer just showed up. Still rushing to pack everything. This is certainly a crazy move and my day is only just beginning. Definitely have hard feelings about my time here. Colorado has mostly treated me well, I'm hoping the trend continues when I move back in a week.
 
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.
 
Woke up an hour ago. I'd been awake for about 16 or 18 hours straight. Got up, looked in the mirror, and joked around with my voice since I sound like Snake from Metal Gear every time I wake up. Lol
 
I don't know how to explain it.

I've been in love a couple of times... this one outshines any feelings from anything before..

from being FriendZoned a few weeks ago things have developed... turns out I would live with her, I would marry her, and if it's what she wanted, we would create new lives together.

If.. only.. the words were true.. can I stay the course long enough to find out?

Either way, to all by breatheren that have found themselves in the friend zone.. you will stay there until you do something about it... "Ironically, the greatest way to make a statement is not with words..."

Do it.. find out.. those that sit back, resting on their fears and insecurities lose out... fortune favours the bold...

That is quite inspirational.

You've breathed new life into me. Thank you for posting this.
 
Have broken up with your girlfriend yet or are you still doing irreparable damage to her self esteem?

I've decided to tough it out and stick with it. I've pretty much given up on the other dilemma and realized what good I was getting out of the current relationship I'm in so I toughed it out and am currently happy in my relationship. My parents kept telling me that I'm an idiot for hanging on to that other girl and that I didn't know what I had. Well they were right.

This conversation is for a different thread however 👍

:lol: Note taken. :D

Anyway, my day... Sleep mostly. I got up at about 11 AM. Did very little until I decided to do more singing. And I'm still just experimenting with my voice, finding more power... And I think I'm finding it. :D All I need to do is focus more on power until I can make myself just do it naturally. I also found that early Michael Kiske (Helloween) songs fit my voice quite well. The points where I change from chest voice to head voice is pretty much identical, so when I try "I Want Out" or "Halloween," I can sing them naturally, and I don't need to worry about which voice to use. And then I did more sitting around doing nothing... And here we are now.
 
Also my car is making some funny noises. (Completely unrelated to the prang mentioned above, it's been getting progressively worse over the past few weeks.) I think it might be the clutch, when the car is still and idling there is quite a loud whirring noise, but when I press down the clutch it disappears completely.


It's much worse than I thought. I booked it in for a service yesterday and found out it wasn't the flywheel or clutch, it was the gearbox itself. The garage has told me if the gearbox needs to be reconditioned it will be £1200, however if it's the bearings and something else then it's £900. I'm hoping it's just the bearings, it's a known fault on my particular model that they can be a bit iffy. Plus the costs for the window will be £174 for the parts, probably £250 including labour. That's a lot of money.

So yeah, bad day so far. I also had to get up at 4:10am this morning to start work at 5:00am, I'm not too tired at the moment but it's going to hit me later on.
 
Pretty good. ISP must have updated their servers, as my internet speed as doubled for free =P

Went from a max of 300kbps to 650kbps.

Lucky you, I get about 1kbps :-/ (joke, by the way)

Started off with a thick veneer of nostalgia- talked to my cousin in Australia, then my day was drab- GT5 and Daft Punk were the highlights.

Then I was thinking of doing car spotting with a friend, but he bailed. At 12, I messaged him, at 4, I was told "half an hour" then it was "Having my tea"

4 hours later, nothing. So I knocked on him. I kid you not, this was his (nanas) reasoning for not coming out

"I'm busy on a game"

Never heard from him and its now 11 PM. It's a problem because I'm very frustrated by him; he's done this too many times. He ignores my messages, he doesn't answer the phone- in fact, I get the impression he would look past me and go for booze. He's a childhood friend and I'm scared of his reaction but I want him to know how much he makes me question myself, whenever he doesn't reply, I feel I'm a bad person to hang around with.

He's the most infuriating person I know.
 
Got a new battery for my cell phone. Now it's useable again so happy.
 
Spent the day test driving cars and getting ready for the bike racing this weekend.

There was this Toyota Yaris with a Borla exhaust on the lot, and to my surprise, it actually sounded good. Was a fun car with the manual, and even did little burbles on deceleration.

And 800kms out of a 42 litre tank is just what I'm looking for.

:nervous: Damn. Hits hard. I'm in the single zone, not the friend zone.
 
Alrighty I guess. I wasn't looking forward to doing 8-5 shifts for a whole week since I had a bad time with my boss 3 weeks ago. Now we seem to be on better ground which takes a load of grief off my chest.

The other day I impressed a customer. She seemed to be in a rush, from speaking really quickly on the phone to almost forgetting her bank card in the debit machine. I commented on it and she light-heartedly replied that she's always in a rush because life is too short that time just keeps flying.

That was when I proposed an alternative perspective that maybe life is too short, because she's trying to blaze through it so quickly. By trying to do things quickly with the mindset that you're saving time, you've actually concentrated on completing tasks instead. All tasks require time to do and the result of completing a lot obviously means a lot of time will be consumed - hence why time seems to go by so quickly.

This way of thinking isn't spectacular to me, but she found it rather insightful.

Finished 2nd and 1st in the bike heat races today, not bad for being off the bike for over a month.

Was only able to get the lead on the 2nd last corner of the last lap, so the finals should be a good race.
Dad also decided to get some 112 octane race fuel. :crazy:
It's supposed to give another 10hp though, so hopefully it'll make the finals easier.

👍👍👍 Good job man!


Had a going away party for me yesterday and said my final goodbyes to most of my friends. The hardest one is today though. Today's farewell, until next time, is going to burn for a while. Not being mushy, but I never actually thought I would ever say farewell to this friend. :nervous:

Discovered K-Pop today. It might be because I'm not Korean or from any eastern countries, but I was confused the whole time I watched the music video. I think I'm addicted to it though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dww9UjJ4Dt8&feature=youtube_gdata_player I'm on my phone so sorry for the long link.

Ah.. K-pop.... I remember my first time. Never been so confuse in my life.

Anyways, today I didn't do anything besides go to Canada's Wonderland. (Amusement Park) Came back, and helped my dad with maintenance in the house. Tomorrow I'm going North to see some good dealerships... I missed the auction yesterday :(
 
Okay, until I saw memto89 on my case about Saturday's WEC race @ Suzuka. Richyboy2, who was starting on the row in front of me in the same column of cars, drove like grandpa for much of the formation lap and I had no way to avoid running into him most of the time. Then he memto accuses me of a blocking issue that I wasn't even aware of. He also says one more and I get demoted to the feeder series. He does that and he's getting kicked right in the f:censored:ing nuts. And I couldn't get out of the way of two faster cars in the S Curves without risking getting marooned in the f:censored:ing gravel, yet he says I violated a blue flag. I couldn't turn myself into a f:censored:ing helicopter and get out of their way!
Other than that s:censored:, yeah it was a fine day.
 
Well, the morning is here. I really need to stop torturing myself by staying up through nights. 5:49AM right now and I'm just listening to music and fiddling with some apps on my computer. I have to wake up at 12:00PM to cash a check and take care of a few other things. Hopefully that can knock my sleep schedule into place also, I've noticed I'm edgy around other people when I lack sleep, and a edgy me is unfun.

I hope everyone where the sun has risen or fallen is having a good morning or evening though.
