Another Basket Ball Practice – “And So I Quit”

January 30, 2006 · Leave a Comment

Mabe the last quote isn’t quite right but I am surely considering it. We have a new coah helping out and boy does he make you work. It was close to hell. He really isn’t a nice guy… Ok mabe I am over exagerating a bit but it really felt like a hard practice. Anyhow today was yet another normal day.

I am working on producing an audio diary that will really take the starin off me writing every day and will accompany the text here but that idea is still in the can.

Today this blog gots its very first press, or atleast you could call it that, I talked about it in my Afrikaans speech.

Santon – “1000 Counting”

January 28, 2006 · Leave a Comment

I have just come home from Santon City and even though the St Andrews social was on the square was packed like usual. Today I went with two of my good friends Matt and Adrian.

We went to first go see a movie called “Fun with Dick and Jane”. The movie is actually quite funny. We then just walked around Santon until ten.

I am very tired so this post is laking in humor and in class but I might come back and edit it in my next life.

A Bit Late – “Dashing Fashion”

January 28, 2006 · Leave a Comment

I thank all people for thier wonderful, if not harsh critisim of this blog. One of the best comments I read about this blog was from one of my good friends, Old Man Matthew Glazer, who rightfuly discribed the blog as being very random. I think that’s the best ethos for the blog to be following because you never know what to expect.

Well today. It was all ordinary until the evening. I went out to the Kingsmead fashion show. The show was very well done and the girls were absoluetly amazing. I finally worked out who the band Entity are. I will post all photos up here in a while.
If you are an avid reader of this blog you will notice that I am acctually writing this post a day late. Keep random.

Thinking of a Title – “Fill in the Blank”

January 26, 2006 · 1 Comment

Ok. So I have offcially decided that as of today if nothing relativly exciting happens that I am not going to be posting to my that day. Today is such a case but as I haven’t told you all of this new change I feel drawn to posting now.

Well today it rained. That was literally the most exciting thing that happended during the course of the day. This is the first downpour since about a week ago and it was just evil enough to kill basket ball practice today.

Just so you all know we won our basket ball match against a school called Jeppe yesterday which is very cool. Homework has started to pile up so I will have to end this most uneventful post here. Hope tomorrow isn’t as uneventful.

Not Another Day – “Oh What A Beautiful Morning!”

January 25, 2006 · Leave a Comment

Yes it was a beautiful morning but that was about all it was. The day started as any day does, I woke up. If you just you compleatly missed the humor in the last sentence you probally have realised that today, how you say, wasn’t the best of days. Its not that it was bad or anything it just wasn’t good, it was boring.

I was probally given the highest ammount of homework I have had in a long time. I have acctually just finnished my homework and decided to just post to my blog quickly just to keep you all up to date. There isn’t much more I can say about today so I will just mumble on about the future like I always do.

Here are the things that are currently occupying my life at the moment:

  • I am setting up a costomisable internet start-page that is very fexible and hope to sell it to schools various schools.
  • I am helping to set up a inter-schools magazine that we hope to get to press by March.
  • I am developing a new blog that I hope to focuss only on technology and hope should be up soon.
  • I am also diving through my bank account to try and find some money so that I can move this diary to www.nickparkin.com.

Anyway. I will keep you all up to date on all my projects but have to end this post here so that I can get some sleep.
