I -more against my own free will, than by choice- go shopping too much. I went out to the local big shopping arcades and it was packed! and it wasn't even raining the sun was shining yet people still feel tempted in these hard economic times to go and look at items that they probably wont be able to own and some that they aren't even interested in. i do seriously think though that anyone going for a shop should ask themselves are the items that i am going out to get of any use to me and are these items at all important.
Marketing and the media play a massive part in this countries love of shopping because as we don't have the weather of Spain or France we Brits on the whole spend our time eating watching telly or going shopping. The big companies know this and so exploit shoppers willingness to be guided and tell them that it is vital they buy a morph suit for them their Nan and their cat.
I guess a the weather does restrict us somewhat in terms of out door activities we can do however i don't think shopping should be used as a day filler.
Go Shop till you fucking drop but don't do it if it aint necessary :)

Battlefield beta blues.
So it is growing nearer to the end of the beta and i will be really sad to see it go, i have enjoyed it that much! It is a spectacular game in all of its glory with real life sounds and extraordinary lighting effects. I know this game will be a milestone in the making of games and most definitely a COD killer.
The map they have provided us with is small, however this is just a marketing pull to try and attract a more substantial amount of call of duty players. i am not too happy about this move on DICE's part. however, I understand that its vital to the games survival. I have played a considerable amount of the COD series in my time and have to say that i am now a complete Battlefield convert. I hope this happens with as many of the new player coming from that game to this.
I am also enjoying the ease of access to the battle log its really handy for keeping up-to-date with what you and your friends are doing within the game.

Shawty blog. New Blog on the way!!
Not a lot happened today although i spent a lot of time trying to think of something to write about (unfortunately to no avail). I will probably start taking more photos with my camera and turn this blog into a sort of photography page as that's what a lot of people seem to do.
I will be opening a second blog called 'News Buzz' i will be giving my views and opinions on the day to day news.i still want to put some time into this blog however 'News Buzz' will be more constantly updated.
Again anyone wants to hear anything in particular let me know by leaving me a comment.

Job
hunting,Future plans and trips of a lifetime…
( oh and a little bit about Dyspraxia)
Whilst waiting for my online success to take
off, i needed a stable source of income in one sense or the other; so this
summer I have set out to find any jobs in my local area. My trepidation has
been somewhat of a failure however some of the pubs have said that it is
possible for me to work their during ‘peak times’ during the WINTER!
The
real drive for my money making schemes is that I will be embarking on a grand
trip to the Nepalese capital of Kathmandu. It will be an opportunity of a
lifetime for me and the furthest and most foreign country I have ever visited,
I wish I could set up a PayPal account; however age restrictions make this
unachievable at this current time. I am planning on attaining a video camera
for Christmas so that I may ‘vlog’ my trip and share my expedition with you.
However, before i embark on that journey i am currently battling through the ever growing work load of year 12. For most people it is a difficult task any way but i have a certain 'disability' known as dyspraxia. What this basically means is that i am unable to fully achieve the goals that i want to achieve. The doctors did say that i was only borderline although as stresses have increased what with GCSE's and family issues; it has become more difficult to construct myself properly in a physical environment and i believe the problem has become more prominent.

31 Centigrade in October!?!?!?
31 Centigrade in October!?!?!
What makes this a lot weirder is that it is happening in Britain, yeah that's right rainy grey overcast England. Luckily for me it is going on during a long weekend which means enjoying it is slightly easier than if i were at school. It is kind of funny because i remember that nutter from america who said the end of the world was coming-no not him, the other one-its odd because after he was proved wrong by common sense, he said that "this day up until the end of the year would be hell for mankind, so if this is gods idea of hell then everybody should continue to sin.

Although, as luck would have it i have developed a horrid cold, i got a runny nose and aching joints but hey ho on-wards and upwards. I'm not going to let a virus stop me enjoying my self with a smile on my face and a can of coke nothing else matters.
I live in a relatively safe and secure part of England and like to get out into the country as much as possible, while i cant really run at all i do like to go for a cycle quite regularly. As you get older your physical fitness becomes more important and its something i have just started to realise, however i don't think i would ever let my fitness come in the way of my loving of 'fatty foods', I have a good metabolism though and i do not consume a massive amount of bad foods so obesity is not something i am massively worried about.
Well i better get off this laptop before it starts raining again. :)
Thank you for reading and as usual comments and feedback are always welcome
Oh and need more disciples!!
Sixth form bite
Sixth form BITE!
Sixth form for the Americans and other people that don't know what on earth sixth form is, it is a version of college which is attached to high school. So when you finish i think its11th grade instead of going off to a place which is separate from high school, you can go to a high school and study college level courses called A-levels but that a whole other kettle of fish.Its been two weeks now into my sixth form life and i must say the work load in comparison in previous years is incomparable I did not expect this level of work straight away however i am going to attempt it to the best of my abilities and hopes for a decent final out come.
Meanwhile outside of the formalities of sixth form i have just this instant been enjoying the wondrous delights of the BF3 Multi-player Beta, and delights they certainly were. Although there is only one map and game mode, it is a massive map with several twists and turn and breathtaking french scenery. The lighting and sound effects are more impressive than the graphics, with blinding torchlight's and reflecting bullets being captured in beautiful High Definition. Graphics while revamped and different from anything on the market, they don't say WOW! more Yeah these graphics are really nice. However, this is a game that is in its beta infancy and i have only played the multi-player so i am hoping the single player is more impressive graphically.
This is going to be a short bloggy as i am unable to get inspiration at this moment in time but i will see what comes to me in the future. :)
