...since the last post on this livejournal, i have done about 10 mins of uni work, and almost one whole month has passed. im destined to fail, not due to lack of ability but mainly due to lack of effort. i wish i could motivate myself to do what my instincts tell me are right but my mind says are pointless. my thought process seems to be fuck it 'spend all your days procrastinating on ph, pf or strathy, get a fast car and become a hardshoulder hero' reality is kinda striking when at the late hour of 00:44 ive finally got my arse into gear to do some work ive went to log onto blackboard only for it personally to tell me that im fucked. i go to tenerife on friday morning, ten days of doing nothing in particular and the sunshine should hopefully be enough for my conscience to eat away at my mind, and get my arse knitting jumpers over the whole scenario, and finally get me to come back and focus on getting a grip of reality.

..last night was quite a good night, just sitting in the big shop with darren and alice talking a lot of non sensical bs. currently sitting in alices house because i couldnt face uni at 9 o'clock this morning so shes sleeping on the couch beside me and im sitting watching top gear on dave and 'doing uni work'. jeremy is up to his usual tricks. racing hamster and may across europe in a car, whilst they fly, and actually win still doesn't get old.
alices ability to sleep for 12 hours a day and still be tired never ceases to amaze me.
i really want a shot of a new focus rs. reading evo, car and top gear makes me feel like im 5 years old and with wastegate chatter as standard its a wet dream.
anyways im going to go and get my presentation for uni done.

theres only one way how i'm feeling right now could be bettered!...
and thats if i were travelling along any given road in my fathers borrwed audi tts, flat chatting it with nothing more than that intesive noise coming from the exhaust after every well worth it gear change. okay maybe i lie, it could be better'd if i were given the keys to my very own rocket ship (see what i did there? RS - rocket ship? never mind!) but i'd quite happily settle for the keys to that stupid ponce car just for a couple of runs of the dually just to wipe the smiles of a couple of peoples faces, its by no manner of means a world beater but its definately enough to have alot of fun in. nuff said.

..its been some time since my last update, just got a new laptop, im sure the effect of going on websites and being the internet and using it will wear off fairly quickly so i doubt there will be a follow up to this for some time.
well its 2009, new year, new you. or so they say haha. currently all im obsessed about is mens health, healthy eating, losing weight, having the odd drink, ultimate goal is to get a six pack seeing as ive never actually had one. put my interest in wanting a rocket ship on the back burner for now until funds permit. got a couple of grand in the bank but dont want to blow it on a car the now lol. so got a couple of holidays booked, t in the park. trying to make a bit more of my last teenage year. alice is offically old, she was twenty the other day and its made me freak out that im actually really an adult now. jeezo! went out for dinner with her family on monday, did the nice boyfriend thing haha. got her a links of london bracelet which wasnt too bad on the auld wallet.
responsibilities suck hard, uni is quite possible the biggest drag of the day but not after my 5 hours of banking fun in first direct. quite enjoying sitting in at the moment, living the quiet life.
wow i am starting to sound old haha.
hopefully get my st brakes on the old focus this weekend and get it serviced, then i need to get it painted and get my leather interior back in it for performance ford near the end of the month. ahwell thats it for this update, but maybe ill have more for next time :)

well well, time for a little update of this livejournal.
in short, since last time i wrote here, ive returned from china, had a proper test of how good my relationship skills are, properly actually wanted to kill alick fucking kerr! went to see oasis two nights in a row, which was proper fucking amazing! had my shiney new n96 stolen and then unfortunately had it replaced with a gash iPhone. put my car up for sale, got more skint, attempted to swap a degenerate idiot from irvine my car for an astra GSi turbboooo!!!! but its not for happening. i have then in turn became hung up about how i want a turbo'd car and i'd pretty much do anything to be able to have one at the moment. so much so that im willing to pay £255 a month for insurance lol.
todays the 11th of decemeber which means ive been driving two years, weyhey! :) 12 points to play with finally! means i can drive like a complete knobend again without fear of losing my licence for speeding or getting caught on the phone.
it has definately made me decide that it is infact turbbbbbooooooo time!
plans for tomorrow are to go into town with the missus to get a swatch at what she wants for her christmas. shes working so im gonna go out and catch up with the guys seeing as ive been a ponce all week and not went out cause ive been feeling like shite, shes coming over to stay once shes finished work, hopefully crack open a bottle.
saturday i intend to watch the rangers game and then get my dad to go with me to look at a silver GSi i then have to visit relatives that are up from london for a wee bit. hopefully i could play up on it and use it as a meal ticket :)
sunday i intend to power through some uni work and get it done, uni finished this week but i know if i dont do the work now ill never do it.
the long and short of it. really want a GSi before christmas so i can make my rents get me lovely turbo goodies like a magnex turbo downpipe, decat, cybox exhaust, and an ltd edition apexi avc-r boost controller in black ;)
fingers crossed.

if there ever was a way to sum up how i am feeling
the time has come for colds and overcoats.
we're quiet on the ride, we're all just waiting to get home.
another week away, my greatest fear.
i need the smell of summer, i need its noises in my ears.
if looks could really kill, then my profession would be staring.
please know we do this cause we care and not for the thrill.
collect calls to home to tell them that I realize that everyone who lives will someday die
and die alone.
just drove home on the most miserable night. if it werent for stupid fucking dickheads then there wouldn't have been any need for me to be driving fast. if it weren't for my driving fast i wouldn't have forgotten about the potholes in crossford destroying my fucking wheels, then i wouldn't have had to stop outside the tilly to check that they are anhilated, because of this, i then was in even more of a rage i drove home so fucking fast and passed the police twice. i wouldn't then have got myself so freaked out that i was getting fucked for driving so fast and being chased by that stupid fucking silver undercover traffic police 5. i fucking hate cars, bain of my fucking life, two new back tyres, a new steering wheel for the airbag cover, gearbox feels like its about to fucking fall out the bottom of the damn fucking thing, i so wish i had a fucking pushbike.
as for everything else well my phone hasn't rung yet and i'm never gonna be able to sleep tonight, guess its gonna be one of those sleepless nights tossing and turning till dawn.

well well. i've just came in there from the cinema, went to see taken with alice. pretty sweet movie. liam neeson is an absoloute hero. " if you are going to hold my daughter to ransom i do not have any money, however what i do have are certain acquired skills that will allow me to find out who you are, hunt you down and kill you!" epic. other than that my days been not bad. just uni and doing a project.
it always rains on a tuesday i have noticed, its my only night away from first direct and it always absoloutely pishes it down.
so the weekend there was ultimate fail. working friday night till ten then went down hamilton and spoke to the honda tech with matthew. barry took us out in his 'teg engined civic which goes like shit of a chrome shovel. he seemed to insist on showing us how well it handled, by tanking it around corners and stupid speeds. it has made matthew love honda's again which i have yet to decide is for better or worse. on this eve we also saw it fit to bully euan russell. spotted in the palace car park at approx 11:15 with one blonde katie wilson as a passenger. i decided to give chase. so matthew hung out the passenger window with a fag and his shaven head and scared the shit out of them. euan attempted to engage in a traffic light grand prix with me at the lights outside the school and matthew thought it'd be funny to try and spit on his car and shout fuck you at him. he was pumped after that for a good 25 minutes and he became a very unwanted passenger, proceeding to rattle his head of my seat in epeleptic fit sort of way. once he had calmed down he regained his place as co-pilot by rambling on about how his haircut makes him look hard and the way he was smoking his fag made katie look at him in fear, which i think was the highlight of my night.
saturday night stevo said he would drive yet he went and pumped lynsey and then fucked off home. so he somehow managed to trick me into driving and he came down to my house and came out in my car. went into town down a few laps and then went back to hamilton and done the mega trip a couple of times. pissed the night away and took alick and malcy home. alick was absoloutely fucked and i made sure he had a good spew before he got in my car lol. nothing worse than chunky reproduced carrots to clean up on a sunday morning. matthew slagged my phone because for once in his life he had (notice i said HAD and not HAS) a better phone than me.
got up early on sunday morning and went and got a new phone because he's shit and it just had to be done. fucked around the rest of the day doing shit all. stevo came and picked me up at about half 8. then went into town a run again. this time it was much more fun because we were in bluebell and we were doing like 145mph (BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!) most of the way along the m74. to make up for the amount of fuel that student stephen used on his way into town he insisted on doing 60 all the way home due to a 'burst radiator' lol. then me and matthew chittered about and made fun of the fat man again as he looked like a burglar. due to me not having my car, matthew had to take me home lolz think it took about 15mins to cover 4miles.
i really do hope this weekend is better, i think im goin to go out and get fucking mad wae it, going to shanghai on montag for two weeks and my birthdays somewhere in the middle of that too. all in all, things seem to be good. laters.

yo,
well i'm sitting in uni just now pretending to be doing a polymer project lolz. instead i thought i come see my old pal livejournal. in recent times i've been living a very boring existence, no drink, no going out on week nights but its been pretty good. saving a fortune on fuel. decided to get the head screwed on this year, with it being my 2nd second year. apparantly you can't obtain a degree by sitting down a car park in hamilton with your mates talking shit night in night out. i have many funny driving stories to tell but i think i'll just keep them for another time.
matthew shaved all of his hair of on friday night and refused to tell me what he had done, he insisted that it would be well worth my while to drive from hamilton to carluke. if i had knew it was to see his baldy napper i wouldn't have bothered, but i was intrigued. ended up in big mcsweenz house till about 3 then hit the road again.
on saturday, me and alice were gonna have a nice wee night in. had a takeaway, alice demolished a bottle of white wine and the party animal inside her decided that a night in on a saturday night just wouldn't do. she convinced me to go to the palace. had a couple of supersonics and then went back up the road and went to bed and i coulda seen the next days events far enough.
sunday, me and matthew went to crail. it was 'mintit' basically spent the day taking the piss out of everyone including myself and 'the fat man'. andrew gallacher and charlie shaw had there mk2 focus cosworths and they were stunning. andy g's more so, clad in carbon composite it oozes sex appeal and 1/4's of 10.5 seconds. then made up the ultimate focus spec list and spent the rest of the journey home talking about gsi's. oh how i cannot wait to get my bluebell :D
did my brake pads on tuesday with the aid of the bold darren and what a humourous spectale of mechanical debauchery it was. darren arrived and 5.30pm and i already had the car jacked up wheel off ready to go. took the caliper of the hub assembly and basically sat and looked at it for 4hrs and 45mins until uncle stephen arrived and fixed it. took him about 25mins to do the left one in the dark, drove the car up to tech park and it took him about 12 mins to do the other one in the light. then me and the bold darren spent the rest of the night "bedding" them in. in other words, fucking the anchors on at stupid speeds for a lol.
all in all... its been a fun week.
heres an interesting fact to end on.
did you know that a robin reliant '3 wheeler' can lay down quarter mile times of 14.84 seconds and do 0-62mph in 7.1 seconds. |

lolz was just looking through old live journal stuff from years ago, and thinking how it felt like yesterday. all the drama's and the lu's <3 and the bitchin. makes me feel all nostalgic about school.
amazin'
just to think how much things have changed. some of the stuff back then was magic, and some of the stuff that happens now is equally as good. :)
makes you think what iffff??
theres clearly now a reason why i didn't delete it all at the time haha.

well since last time ive achieved absoloutely nothing apart from get drunk as much as possible, and become incredibly skint. im so skint to the point that i went into an incredibly large rage last night when i got a £30 fine. what didn't help the traffic poilce and my rage is the moment when they decided to pull me over on my way home from the driving range and whip out their little ruler which i believe they use to measure their really small knobs, and numberplates aswell ofcourse.
"it concerns me that the font on your numberplate is too small"
at this point, danny griffin a.k.a the tallest man in the world flies past in his Z4 with numberplates not unlike my own.
those traffic police must have went home, safe in the knowledge that justice had been served, i feel they must have reached their daily quota with me, because after that their wasn't a traffic police car in hamilton for the rest of the evening. ftpoli!
enough rants.
im now procrastinating to the point where, i should hopefully not have to go to the mighty UWS to see my course leader about what lies ahead in regards to my degree. so instead i intend to fuck about on bebo, ffoc, strathycruise and vxr online. in the hope that it will just sort itself out.

my life has reached the low low levels of going to the hamilton palace again, and if that doesn't make things sound bad, then maybe the fact that if i go on saturday after laurens will be four in a row will.
a quick update, since i last wrote in here, ive cracked an eye socket, broken a tooth, went through two sets of tyres, had my car keyed, saved up the money to get it fixed, not bothered my arse getting it fixed, went to see pendulum, went to tinthepark2008, went to see alkaline trio, almost nearly dropped out of uni, decided that i am buying a car with a minimum engine size of 2000cc, with nothing less than the forced induction supplied by a turbocharger, made a hobby out of winding up doggersand put approximately 8000 miles on my car.
i'm going back to play forza to see if i can get my nurburgring astra vxr around the nurburgring in any time under 8:35 seconds, as thats the time the real life car can do it, in standard guise, mines in the game has 470bhp, a limited slip diff and the disadvantage of me having never driven around the nordischleife before, digitally or in real life.

well it was almost exactly a year ago to the day, and time that i got done for speeding.
how wonderfull, if it wasnt for that fateful little run, i'd have a rocketship now, and not a 1.6 focus.
oh yeh the car looks the shit, and thats all very well and good when your driving about, enjoying the gadgetry and the comfort of the black leather recaro seats which your arse is being graced with, however its not so kool when every other numbskull and there fucking granny asks "is that an ST?"
"what do you think mate, im 18 and my drivers licence looks like morsecode!"
but it just doesnt make that little feeling in my stomch go HOLY MOTHER OF FUCK this is fast, it just doesnt get the adrenaline pumping, and to be totally honest, its totally pish.
i want a little rocket ship that gets me ticking when the throttle finally gets the turbo spooled up and hitting nothing but pure BOOST!
ohhhh i can only dream for the next two years, until these bloody points drop off.
I HATE INSURANCE COMPANYS, PENALTY POINTS FOR SPEEDING SHOULDNT MEAN JACK SHIT YOU WANKS! |

i cant actually sleep, its roasting in my fucking room, and times going so fucking slow, ive actually seen time pass by faster when im sitting in work clock watching, its soooo slowwww.... t in the park has possibly the worst lineup ive ever seen in my life, roll on ocean colour scene and the very few others im slightly excited about, im so looking forward to drinking my 30 cans of stella and my two bottles of jd and coke, and then my dads carry out after that.....arggghhhhhhh im so excited about it, in such a strange way, sitting in a tent drinking listening to what my ipod contains and talking about lots of unusual drivel with my friends and family... such as the topic of choice from last year "monkey knife fights!"
why is it so hard to sleep?
the new linkin park album on the other hand is quite good... im listening to it and its quite fitting for my mood right now. i need to sleep, last chance saloon for the next three nights.
take it easy, im gonna try sleep.

well i picked my car up today at twenty five to three, and ever since all ive done is gawk at it, im just home, went out in it from work, and ive already put about 110 miles on it since i got it. cruizeeee cruiizeeee cruiizeeee. sat about the tesco car park up in lanark with matthew and gairns and div. everyone fecked off home and i decided to give my car a wee spanking on the m74, then on the gartcosh road while taking darren back to his... managed to get the speedo to 120 on the '74 but i suppose i shat out of it coz of my points. its well rapid! and i love my constant wooooooosh! from my induction kit.
ive got to go to college tomorrow and do quite alot of work for my presentation, when in actual fact ill spend most of my time on youtube watching videos of the most stupid shit. got to go to work tomorrow night aswell which is a guttor coz i really just wanna drive about in my ride. ahh well needs must.

well hello there, its time for another little pointless update, now my time recently has been wasted by driving about aimlessly and burning up lots of fuel, and hanging out with the guys, i seem to not do much intresting stuff anymore other than go to work, and fucking drive about, in the past month or so all ive really been excited about is the end of my 1st year and going to china. i bought a new car last sunday, its a bit of a ripper if i do say so myself, i get it a week on tuesday and it will be seen gracing the fast and modified show at ingleston, wootwheeel. apparently the last owner of it had been asked if it was okay for it to be on the ford focus owners club stand at the car show, and he said yes, so now that im the new owner, ive decided i might aswell do it anyways.
all ive really got planned for summer, is working to keep the pennies in my pocket, become the world pool champion, lots of planned trips to crail, donny and maybe even a wee camping session, maybe if im able to pull off a bank job even le mans, t in the park boozay session and lots of car park antics and tyre shredding fun.
i quite like not being a piss head and more of a petrol head now, its much more intresting, theres a lot more skill in handbrake turns than pulling pints.
also to speak of bad times, i attempted to fight the law and the law won, sadly i got myself a little number of points on my drivers licence and a 100 pounds fine from the lovely little guvnor of the district court.
so in the coming weeks theres a likely chance a red vauxhall astra vxr is going to pass you long before a red ford focus st does.... hahahahaah
anyways peace out |

well its christmas already, how quick this year has flown in, its quite strange. just the other day i was in the mega bar and everytime a christmas song came on i uncharacteristically hated every minute of it. but all of a sudden im really in the mood haha, ive not even opened a single present, i think im going to go to bed and sleep until boxing day but, yeh fucking hell i just watched home alone two and i actually fucking pissed myself laughing at it, its strange how even tho ive seen those films a million times, i still find them hysterical.
was up at alices earlier and gave her, her christmas present, i hope she likes it. im not really bothered about whats going to happen today coz christmas day is always the same, wake up, open the presents, get ready, go to your grans, open more presents, eat christmas dinner and fall asleep. im really looking forward to boxing day haha... my whole family on my dads sides staying at my house coz were gonna have a partayyy and im really looking forward to the drunken 6am conversations about how my dad, my aunt and me are music snobs and my uncle peters drunken shenanigans.
'tis the season to be jolly....hahahahahahahahah
