Another New Post for a New Year

Happy New Year!!!! (a little late I know but I forgot)

So New Years eve at 5 to midnight I remembered that I had not Scheduled a post for Midnight, I have been a little busy since the 1st so I have just got round to doing this post.

This year is going to be a pain as I am still looking for a job and after 6 months of looking already I am a little bored with doing nothing other than looking.

Well I guess we should catch up:

Christmas

Christmas day was fun. I was up at 10:00 and I was picked up by my Uncle about half hour later.  When we got to my Mums it wasn’t long before we were opening presents. Just before they were all handed out I was handed my 6 month old Brother and it was so fun as I helped him open his presents before I opened mine.

For Christmas I was given a 1TB External Hard Drive, Season 1 of SGU, Season 5 of lost, Season 3 and 4.0 of Battlestar Galactica, season 5 of CSI:NY, Mock the Week – Too Hot for TV 3, teh soundtracks to seasons 1, 2 and 5 of Lost, a Shirt, an SGU 2011 Calender, Dalek cuff-links, a Doctor Who – The Doctor Who Files (collectors Edition) book, a Wallet, a set of ink Cartreges and a Framed Stargate Signed photo signed by  Richard Dean Anderson, Amanda Tapping, Michel Shanks, Christopher Judge and Corin Nemec.

Dalek Cuff-links

Most of my gifts that I got are practical as I have started using the ink Cartreges in my printer, the Calender is up and I have been wearing the shirt and using the Wallet and the External Hard Drive.

My Birthday is a week away (16/01/2011) and I am looking forward as I am turning 20.

I should hopefully be bloging (or trying to that is) atleast once a week.

New Year, New Me

Hello there.

So it is now 2010 and this is my 1st blog post for this year.

Not much has happened so far for me but it is about to get a little bit manic as I go back to college tomorrow (04/01/2010) and I start 3 new units.

I am keeping with my Resolutions, hence this blog post. Yesterday I had a bit of a bike ride into Chatham and I cycled back (that was the killer). I may have a ride around tomorrow or I may have a walk.

I watched Avatar online last night and that is one hell of a good film, I had a small problem with it though as the Subtitles were in German and I have little knowledge of that language but I hope to change that, but I may have to pay to see it in the Cinema in 3D as it is that good.

Every Christmas I get a calender and for the last 3 years (2007/08/09) I have been Recycling them and using the Images as posters, here is the 2009 Callender and in the Mirror you can see some from 2007 and 2008:

Stargate Atlantis Calender 2009

I am Still trying to read Friends Like These by Danny Wallace but I have just not had the enthusiasm to read at the moment but I have been watching Season 5 of CSI:NY which I borrowed from the Library, and listening to the CDs I bought at Bluewater.

I have found that I have started to be come Nocturnal which is going to be fun for Monday as I have to be up early as I start at 09:30.

I am signing off now and i may Blog tomorrow but it is unlikley but I will post soon as it is a New Years Resolution.

Last Week and Updates

so last week I was on Half term and as normal I did nothing.

When I say nothing i mean nothing important or college related.

I did however watch quite a few DVD Box sets, I borrowed Stargate Atlantis season 5 and CSI:MIAMI season 6 Pt II from the library and I bought season 2 of Battlestar Galactica.

I finished watching these Sunday (01/11/2009) night.

On Saturday (31/10/2009) was Halloween and as usual Dad did a pumpkin but he tried something a bit different this year as he only took a little bit off of the surface and did not go all the way through and used LEDs to light it. I like it and it came out well.

I am Enjoying Sanctuary season 2 and SGU season 1 and each seem to be getting better and better.

I am saving my money up for the Stargate SG1 season 1-10 box set at the moment as this will mean that i have every episode and it will take up less room than having each volume will.

i am behind on the reviews, i still need to post 2 for SGU and 3/4 for Sanctuary but they should be up during the week.

That appears to be everything but as always stalk me on twitter where there are more regular updates.

MMMMMMMM How are We?

hello there,

it has been some time since i posted a blog entery so i may be a little rusty but i will give it a go none the less.

Twitter

i am a twitterer and i was before it became the next big thing by about a year, and i have started something on there with the help of “The Night Before”  on kerrang Radio, it is a # tag and it is, #howarewe, and the way that it works is, you add the tag to the tweet and give a score out of 10 and include a reason for the score.

e.g.

#howarewe 5/10, so bored i may have to kidnap a cat.

the team on “The Night Before” are hopeing to get this in to the top topics on twitter.

DVD Collection

it should be noted that i have nearly runout of shelving space for the DVDs.
