The Holidays so Far

Well, the holidays have been great so far. I really haven't done much, but I'd rather be on ACC and talk to my true friends (Those that I happen to not know in real life) then go out. Luckily, the two idiots haven't called/knocked or anything, but I'm gonna stop tempting fate.

Anyway, I'm gonna start with the bad news. Well, every single night since the middle of 2004, I have stayed up past my 'bedtime' on the computer. My brother caught me the other night at the worst night possible, I was having an all nighter. He caught me at 2 in the morning, when I usually only stay up till midnight. So he told my parents, and they made me promise they could trust me to stop. I can't break a promise like that.

So yes, I now have to go to bed at 9:30, when even Molly's bedtime is later, even though she stays up too. She got caught that same night, but she didn't get in trouble. Annoying strict parents... Oh well, it had to end at some point. I can go to bed when I want in two months anyway, once I've left school.

Yeah, I didn't do much last week, I went to those two revision days, they sucked. I did revision properly last week too, but I really can't make myself do it right now. I keep saying to myself: 'I'll do it in an hour' or 'I'll do it tomorrow.'

Tuesday was probably the most fun day, no. It was. I went to Hayling Island with my best friend, Josh D, my sister and Josh D's older brother. Hayling Island is basically a mini theme park, totally rubbish compared to the likes of Thorpe Park and others, but meh, it was fun. They have the fastest damn teacups I've ever been on in my life. All four of us spun it round so fast that it hurt our necks, and we couldn't stand up after. Seriously, we couldn't focus on anything outside the teacup because we were going so fast. Oh, it also had the SLOWEST log flume I've ever been on. Josh and I actually pushed on the walls and ceilings of the dunnel to make the damn thing go faster.

After that, we went to the beach. I hate the beaches around Portsmouth, they are stone beaches, not sand. Anyway, we played random games that basically included running from the waves before they got you. Very childish for two 15 year olds and two 18 year olds, but oh well.

So yeah, Easter Sunday was fun too. I got four easter eggs and a chocolate chicken. I got two dairy milk ones, a flake and cream egg one. W00t. Anyway, we actually stayed at home and did nothing, which is very rare for this family. We usually go to my Nan's or uncle's.

So yeah, that's basically my holiday so far. Quite odd how bored I've been today and yesterday, I usually talk to Molly for hours on end every single day, but she's moved and the internet doesn't connect till next Tuesday. But she goes on holiday for two weeks on Saturday. XD

Speaking of the internet, mine is playing up right now, it keeps disconnecting for hours...

School during the holidays? That sucks..

Yup, today I have to go into school from 9:30-14:30. Stupid GCSE revision sessions. Ah well, at least I can wear non uniform. Molly said she'd be online at 8:30, but looks like she forgot.

Anyway, today I'm going to do Maths at school, and tomorrow I'm doing English Literature. On Saturday I revised Geography, and yesterday I was tortured by listening to two Music revision CDs. Ugh, they were AWFUL. The only somewhat okayish tune/song was 'Blame it on the Boogie'. Disco is the best area of study in Music.

Anyway, been a dull Easter so far. Except Saturday night, where I tried an all-nighter. I ended up going at 3am. Anyway, there were lots of.... Phonebox references. Those that were in the chatroom with me will know what I'm talking about. Not saying anymore. o_o

Anyway, sorry for short entry, but I need to get ready for school. (I shouldn't be saying that until 2 weeks time...)

One day left..

Yay! Today is the last day before the Easter holidays! Better yet, the last day EVER of me having to wear a school shirt and tie. My school has a summer uniform, which is just a polo shirt. Yay, yay, yay.

Anyway, not much happened over the last few days. Completed the last of my coursework, so now all the revision is starting. Tuesday, I submitted ICT. Wednesday I finished Catering, and yesterday I finished Music.

Actually, I haven't completed English Literature yet, I still need to finish my rewrite of an essay, but that won't take long at all.

Ugh, I've got quite a lot of homework for the holidays, and I'm going to have to do a LOT of revision. Not looking forward to it... I have to go into school on Monday and Tuesday for revision sessions. Ugh once more.

3/5 GCSEs of A*-C complete! Woo!

I got my first ICT GCSE result today! I got a B, one mark off an A. >_>

I'm slightly annoyed though, my teacher orginally gave me an A*, then downgraded it to B, then put it back up to A, and I ended up with a B. Way to get my hopes up, Mr. Wood. Gah. Oh well, I got the highest mark in my entire year, which I am REALLY pleased with. I also finished my second GCSE for ICT today, and pretty sure I've got an A for it, as it is far better than my first.

Anyway, Maths, did boring revision stuff. English, had a sub again and did another exam question, which I didn't bother doing, I had mind block. Geography, I missed half of it for guitar practice, but we've started revising CBDs and quality of life. ICT, finished coursework/GCSE (ICT grade is 100% coursework.), PE did Basketball. We had a majorly bias ref so the girls team thrashed the boys 24-8. But seriously, if you were there, you'd see we DEFINITELY should've won. And Food Tech, also started revising. Turns out our exam is about eggs and buffet food.

Anyway, I ended up going to bed at 1am last night... Ugh, my friend Molly was downloading the LOTRO free trial and it took 15 hours, and then turned out not to work. >_<;

Yeah, what a great day. XD

Why do people not get the point?

Second post today, but who cares...

There are these two people that think they're my friends, but I don't like them. At all. They're immature, idiotic, annoying, swear a lot and have completely different interests to me. They then insulted me and every online friend I have and expected the next day for me to have forgiven them.

For months I've rejected going out to play in their stupid little den but they don't get the point. Because I kept saying 'no', my parents came down like a ton of bricks and yelled at me, my dad even going as far as saying: 'I feel ashamed, I thought we'd raised you to be a polite young man. You need friends in your life, not just computer games." Well guess what? I have friends, over a hundred friends, online friends. Not that I told them that...

Anyway, that was about two months ago. They called for me again today, and I had to go out, you'd have thought that blocking them on msn, ignoring their phone calls, emails, even avoiding church to not run in with them, would have made them realize I'm avoiding them. But no, they cleverly decided to try and actually knock on the door to get me out...

Ugh, sometimes I wish I was mean enough to just say: "I hate you! Get the hell out of my life!"

The Weekend... Yay..

Woo, it's the weekend again. Another day of doing absolutely nothing.

Yeah, I spend too much time on the computer. So far today, I've woken up at 7:30am, checked ACC, gone on Lord of the Rings Online, and then Guild Wars. I haven't played Guild Wars in about two years, and wow it is really boring compared to LOTRO. I restarted LOTRO from scratch by deleting all my characters, and created a human. Hoping to do some roleplay in Bree tonight, and that shouldn't be difficult to find.

Anyway, I've got homework to do for the first time this term, I almost went a whole term without getting any. D:

Oh well, I have to do some sheet for Geography and finish my Music Coursework... Damn. The bad thing is that I've done all the practical, the fun coursework, and now I have to do the paperwork.

Welcome..

Yeah, I have no idea why I am making a blog but may as well. Though my life is not exciting, and I expect most of you will probably get bored of it soon, but meh.

I am Joshua, I am 15 years old, I live in Southern England, about half an hour away from Portsmouth. I am in year 11 at school, and I finish this coming summer. I am taking the following exams: English Literature, Maths, Science, Food Tech, Music, Statistics, Geography, Catering.

I have already taken my English Language, and got a B. Also, I have taken two ICT GCSEs but they're not exams, but fully coursework. I'll be getting my first result next Monday hopefully, and the second June.

But who cares about that? Well, I do, but you probably don't.

Anyway, nothing out of the ordinary happened today. It's three months until the prom, and the girl I am taking (Roxanne) is finally talking to me again. I told her I liked her last week and I had the feeling she was avoiding talking to me. But it's all sorted now, but she likes me 'as a friend'.

So yeah, I finished my Food Tech coursework today, learned about Diabetes in Science, did boring graphs in Maths and had a supply for English, where we had to answer a practice exam question about 'Of Mice and Men'.

Yeah, for those reading from ACC: I'm quite surprised at how many people haven't confirmed their stories. The deadline is tomorrow, and only around 55 of the 85 have confirmed. Whether the other 30 have dropped out without saying or just haven't bothered to read the thread, I have no idea.

But I can't believe the entries close tomorrow, it's gone so much better than last year.

My blog title clearly fits: 'My life, simple as that'.
