Red Nose Day 2009

 

Red Nose Day '09

 

Comic Relief

I have decided i am going to “Do something funny for Money” this year for Comic Relief.

I have chosen to do a sponsored Bicycle ride for Red Nose Day.

I have not sorted it all out yet, so I still need to decide on how far I am going to go and the route I will go and where this will lead me but I know that it will be sorted in the next couple of days.

I will be Twittering and Blogging about everything I do (Decisions, choices, etc) leading up to the event on the Saturday (14/03/2009) after Comic Relief.

There was a small list of things that I could have done like:

1. Get a Hair Cut
2. Sponsored Silence
3. The bike ride
4. A complete week in college

So I chose the Bicycle ride as it will get me exercises and it will be good for me.

I have setup a RND (Red Nose Day) sponsor page on there site so that people can donate and sponsor me online and I will also have a sponsor form as well.

All of the money I raise will go to a good cause and will save lives and improve them as well.

RND Fact:

£5 could buy a malaria bed net

 

The BT Red Nose Climb

I have donated money to the Red Nose Climb, I did a text donation of £1 wich will help and as TESCO says “Every Little Helps” so as Moyles is going up Mt Kilimanjaro the ride will help raise more money.

I hope that you do something for RND.

Twitter

“@stephenfry Awwwwwwww”

OK so i like many others have become hooked with Twitter (unlike the others this is the 2nd time i have become hooked). amongst these are Stephen Fry, Chris Moyles, Johnathan Ross, Philip Schofield, Greg James, Scott Mills, Rob Brydon, me and my dad.

with Twitter and the application TweetDeck i have been kept up to date with the updates and Stephen Fry was stuck in a lift and Phillip Schofield has been wageing an un-win-able war against the Snow.

if you want to follow me or any of the people i have listed then you can.

you are also able to contact them with the @reply and if you are lucky they may reply back.

also there is David Hewlett and Kate Hewlett, and Dom from the Chris Moyles show, and i am listening to Chris this Morning and Twittering and blogging at the same time so it is ok if you end up with an @reply or a #tag in this blog that is not ment to be there.

i am going to go now as i have to get ready for college.

Is That Sweat On My Pillow? Oh No My Mistake Its My Brain!

well now it has been incrayedibly hot today and this was not a good thing as i had to walk to College then we had a fire drill (thank god) but this was just a short respite from the torture that is called Microsoft Access. then the temperature got even worse and my mate Dan ended up Dehydrated, then there was the walk home witch was even worse than the walk in.

oh i told you about http://www.last.fm/user/R_U_Safe  now i have added the Text Widget at the side and this is where i will add the top bands and songs that i have been listening to each week. this will be updated every Monday.

at the moment i am trying to cool down with very Little success and listening to Stephen Lynch on Colin Murray’s in the company of for “Juggernaut June” you can’t stop it, you just can’t stop it.

C Ar B O N

OK I’m a geek and I’m proud as that was a great mix of music in This weeks Mid-Week Mobile Disco on Colin Murray’s Show On Radio1, 1 hole hour Celebrating geeks amongst us. I was not the one that suggested the idea but I was in the short list for a change with “Songs That Mention TV Shows” it is good to be noticed on the show as I do contribute a lot but I don’tget them readout but I have had a bit of comedy in the Black Hole I had the Poison Sockets clip By Peter Serafinowicz, but I will one day have a Mid-Week Mobile Disco idea that is the best and I will be recognised.

I have been playing Need For Speed Carbon and I had started playing this morning and I defeated the 3rd boss and the game crashed and there was a problem reading the disc so I had to go back to came and they changed it for me so I have got a bit further than I had and I have been listening to music all day and if you want to see what I have been listening to you can go here and I get my EMA (Education Maintenance Allowance) tomorrow that’s great and I then can get more clothes that fit me as I have run out now. I was cleaning my room today and I have no idea why i was but i did and it is clean i can see a patch of floor and the cabled that were all over the floor are organized now so i can find them all witch was difficult before hand i must admit.

doctor who on Saturday looks good and i have been waiting 2 weeks for this episode due to the Euro-vision Song Contest witch was a pain in many places includin the eres, eyes and other non specified body parts but i was not watching but i cant remember what i was watching though witch could be a good thing or a bad thing i’m not sure at the moment.

The Calm Before The Cat??????

well the other night we had a storm and it kept me awake moast of the might and that day i got Need For Speed Carbon and it is a good game the cat has been as mental as ever more so as during the storm and during the car crash at about 10 mins to midnight last night.

on carbon i am 51% compleate and i have signed up here: www.last.fm/user/R_U_Safe here you can see what i am listening to in real time and i think that this is a brilliant idea as colin murray on radio 1 is using to keep his track lists in real time

doctor who has been brill lately especialy the other weeks “the Unicorn and the Wasp” this was one of the best of the season by far. the next vid should be up on friday and as there was a week gap you will be gettin a 2 for 1.

So

Watch This
