FLooding!

There has been really bad floods today and yesterday near our house!

Bleh ,

Adam

Greetings!

Mark Finnegan , an 18 year old in my school was going out with a 14 year old girl , and holding hands around the school , one of the teachers caught them and he got a detention!! I think it serves the stupid pervert right!

We also made sweet and sour fish in Home. Ec. which was a bit fishy!! xD!!

Tonight I have a meeting of the Pym Committee! I'll brief you about it later!

Tayto Tour

Today all of fifth year went on the tayto Crisp factory tour in Tandragee!! Is was an interesting tour and we got to see how crisps were made from potatoes (what else did you expect!!)

But whilst shopping and on the bus two funny innuendos jumped out at me!! Firstly Aaron was on bebo on his phone and the security word came up and the word was stoned!! And the second was in a pound store , The sign said "More ho , ho, ho, for your pound" , I thought that was so funny!!

Adam

This is it!

Today the McComish clan along with Finbar and I went to see This Is It dressed as Michael!

The movie was really , really good but sad , sort of the end of an era.

Records!

Today I have included pictures of a few of the records I purchased on Saturday!

School is going well these days , I got off one class today for choir practice and I don't think I'll get any off tomorrow , but on Thursday , the day of the service I think I get to miss a good few classes thankfully!

We are getting our Halloween results back in a steady stream from the teachers and we will be getting our reports late this week or early next week! Next week , when we're off I plan to do a bit of garden work and do a professional clean and rearrange of my room! It's really became a dumping ground!

Car boot sale!

Today dad and I went to a car boot sale! I got the most amazing bargain ever! 65 records for one pound fifty! But not only that these are really good records and include such amazing titles as "sound of silence" as well as 4 other S+G albums , all of which I adore they are such an amazingly beautiful band , they are truly inspiring!There is also a mint condition copy of "Dark side of the moon" by Pink Floyd including two original posters. Theres also some John Lennon , Boomtown Rats, Bryan Adams and some Eagles to mention but a very small few. So as I was saying this is the best bargain I've ever got in my life!It roughly works out at 3p a record!

Adam (:

Peace

Peace guys! Same old here homework and study! Had 3 tests today , all were ok , French was the worst and English wasn't simple either!! And home ec... Let's just say it wasn't the toughest test in world!!

Adam(:

Hello world

Study!

This afternoon I did homwork and studied from 4.30 until 7.30 and then {now} i took a break I then have to study from 8.00 until 9.30 , then cram in a shower , teeth etc and some reading {memoirs of a Jewish man as a child!}

ADam (:

I found this Definition on a certain persons Bebo and thought it was a wonderful summery of the majority of the population of Cootehill , and Probably Ireland A knacker is your general scumbag from Ireland. Males wear caps balanced at an upright angle on their head, at least 5 gold rings and sovereigns on each hand, large gold chains around their necks, matching tracksuits or shirt under Satellite Sports stripey jumper. Adidas, puma, nike or burberry clothing essential to fit crowd. Females wear: Maternity clothes, knacker hoops (large earings that reach from earlobe to shoulder) Prams, belly tops and tracksuits with their knackery fat hanging off the side.

All knackers enjoy "Bockin' da head o' ya, gear, yolks, dope. hub caps, robbing, thieving, lying, transit vans, horses, lifestyle sports, penneys clothes, supermacs, macdonalds, cinemas, crappy civics and puntos. Fighting, rolling up their sleeves.

Life=study?

I don't know but I think that for the next few my years my life will mean a lot of study. For example , I am going to study a lot for these Halloween tests , what will it be like for the hristmas Tests?? And next year , well that'll be a year round study for the Leaving Certificate!

In an adapted version of a Mr's Doyle quote , "It's wall to wall study"!!

Anyway I have to go now , to study ... What else?

Adam ):

Reunion and Annoyed.

The reunion was really good , although the house was a health hazard and so was the food , the craic was good!!

Today at school we had 3 frees , pretty handy.But anyway these two first years were annoying me about my hair after school today , And I know it shouldn't annoy me but I am really raging , that stupid backward conservative Irish idiots can't accept people for who they are , I am really annoyed , At the two guys{and their families for bringing them up in such an ill mannered way} but at the majority of the population of Ireland , Their heads are stuck so far up their ass's and they need some liberal outlook.

Enough said , I've gotten it off my chest.

Aside from that , we have Halloween tests next week and I have to study for them , so I have to go now!

Adam (:

Excited"!!

I'm actually really excited at the moment , because at 6.45 tonight I will be going to the Avoka Reunion , and not having seen alot of the people for over a year , it will be wonderful to see everyone again!'

I really want to make this weekend last because I know it's sort of the end of an era , the era of Adam being involved in Avoka , although I do plan to go next year , I fear that I'tll be my last as the next summer I might get a job or be too busy or something so I really want to make it last as much as possible because really Avoka had a definite beneficial effect on my everyday activities over the last few years!

I still have to go and pack and get a shower , so I hope to blog on Sunday afternoon telling ye how it went!

Adam (:

Eve, the apple of my eye.

I have fallen in love , with the song which I embedded yesterday , It's so beautiful and deep and the video has such depth blended with comic humor.

Hope you all appreciate it as much as I do!

School!

Today school was nice , I didn't get a huge amount of homework and I got 15/20 in my Irish test which is good considering I was sick for the most of the time! I really can't wait for the Avoka reunion this weekend, it's going to be really good!

I've embedded a video of Bell x1's song "Eve , the apple of my eye" It's a really nice song , and the video is so sad!

French test

GeoTagged, [N54.05490, E7.07790]

Today I got the results of my dreaded French test and after thinking I got 10% , 50% was a pleasent surprise and considering that the best in the class was 65% and the worst was 8% it makes my score look half decent!

Today we had an Irish test which was fairly easy , getting the results tomorrow and I'm hoping I do well!!

Anyway I have French studying to do so I must go!!

Adam (:

The shed!

Just got home from the shed! Had a great time there!! The game was called the cube , a selection if games for which teams were awarded points upon completion! Our team called " team sheep" came is third place!!

I'm listening to this amazing song at the minute , it's called "Closing Time" by "semisonic" I'd strongly reccomend taking a listen!!

Adam(:

Music Reccomendations!

It seems to me that my blog is becoming orientated on providing music recommendations well Heres another one Ludovico Einaudi , An Italien composer who made this beautiful piece of music!

Today at school was ok! We had cooking in Home Ec and I had to stay behind for Ag Science! And Ms. Benton has been sick for the third day running! Hope she gets well soon as too many English frees soon becomes a tad dull!!

REM!

Have recently Been listening to Rem quite a bit and they're so good"!

Had a French test today and I'm almost sure I failed it!

Adam {:

Oh MAN!

School recomenced for me today! I sort of felt thrown in at the deep end ather me ilness as I've had lots of notes which I've had to catch up on! And I got loads of homework! Three hours written homework and 1 hour study {which is im hoping in the future}

I've been listening to meatloaf during hw time this afternoon and I've realised just how much I've missed his music! It's soo good! And after mild research it turns out he's a fairly mellow guy which is more that can be said for the majority of rockers!{and their gigs}

Adam {:

Swine Flu!

I haven't been at school since Monday as I'm sick ... I haven't recieved a diagnosis yet but i think have swine flu becauses there are already a few people at my school who have it! I don't feel well , I have a bad headache and I'm really tired and dizzy and lightheaded! It's not pleasent!

01000001011001000110000101101101001000000100100001101111011000100111001101101111011011100000110100001010

This in My name written in Binary code!

09/09/09

As the 09/09/09 draws to a close I want to reflect on what this day as brought! Firstly it bestowed upon me my junior certificate results , secondly the Beatles entire discography in now entirely remastered and availaible in boxset formt! Thirdly Ireland hhas had it's best weather in over three months and fourthly Apple released an new iphone os! (3.1}

And what didn't happen , Ipods still dont have cameras and The beatles still arn't available on Itunes!

So that's it ... this has been an important day for me mainly because of results , but I'.ll probably remember the date due to thE Beatles release!!

Adam (:

Exam Results!!!

I'm really happy with my results and really happy that I got an A in English!! Also really happy that I got a c in maths and French!!!

Hi!

I'm going to get my results today , a little bit nervous , hope I do well!

bEd

Going to bed now! For the last few hours of peace before the results come out!!?? I've just realised that The results comes out on the same day as the Beatles Remastered Box Set come out 09/09/09! I would love to buy the set but at the moment the minimum price that I've found it at is 160.00 pounds!?! Way too much!?! A posibble exam present?! I wont bother even asking!! Flipping recession and all!?!

Anyway going to bed now.

Adam ):

Results!

A little bit nervous as tomorrow at 10am I recieve my junior certificate results! The plain fact is that these results don't , in the game of life , really matter a huge amount but it's just that there's way too much media attention and hype!

Anyway tomorrow we go in with our parents at 10 am and then get the envolope and then go home and , .... , cry??laugh??? ect!! I can't wait till it's all over and I can sleep!

Anyway I'll upate you when I've recieved the results , probably omitting maths because it'll be so crap!!

Adam :)

Weekend!!

It's the first weekend of the Halloween term! Thanks Goodness , This weekend I'm going to the UBM reunion and I can't wait! I'm staying at Aarons house tonight and then going to Belfast in the morning! Tonight I had a little bit of Biology homework learning a few things and thats all!

School all in all was grand! A few more few periods today as things gradually get sorted out , today I brought a book in to read , "Red Dragon" by Thomas Harris! Great read but I have to admit that it can be a little disturbing upon occassions , especially the detailed into the twisted fantasies of the killers!!?? Entertaining reading all the same!

Weather Update: Crap

And finally a musical finale from The Beatles!!

First proper day.

Today was my first day with classes!Today I had Mrs. argue for Maths , Mrs.Drury for guidance , Mr Lennon for Pe , Mr. Garvey for business and Mrs. Corbett for biology! I was so tired today and could hardly stay awake??? I think I need to go to bed at like 7 tonight!! I got no homework and Abigail Did!! We did absolutely no classwork today? What's that all about you'd think it'd pretty important and them constantly ranting about how important it is to start on the first day and then all of them gave us frees?? Anyway I shouldn't complain!!

Tomorrow I have Home ec , which should be fun , I'm the only boy in the class but yet again I'm the only boy in the tutor group and in P.E. and guidence and I.T!!

Anyway enough about school! Tomorrow evening/afternoon I go to Aarons house and stay over and on Saturday morning we go to Belfast to the UBM reunion!! Twill be nice to see everyone again!!! And the forms for teh pbs reunion just arrived today so I still have to fill them in!!

My bebo is sort of now unused as I've switched over to Facebook which in my opinion in infinitely better!

First day of school!!

Today was my first day of school!! I was put into my tutor group , I'm the only boy in it with over 20 girls!! It's because I'm doing Home ec. !! Got my timetable and it looks grand!!

Have to go now!! Adam!!(:

Three more days!

Three days left , thats including whats left of today! Last night when we were in the nursing home we met Mrs Franks who was in visiting someone and we went back to her place and had a cup of tea!!

Today the weather is still rubbish , I swear if it doesn't get better by the time I'm of movine away age then I'll move to somewhere warmer and drier , it's so depressing.

My pumpkins have now decided to grow , but still at a slow rate. its about the size of four grapes. All other vegetables are growing well! I've embedded a song by simon and garfunkel it's amazing!! I don't know why the beatles are in the pictures though?? Anyones guess!

Nearing an end

The summer holidays are nearing an end again, were going to see fred Beattie tonight in the nursing home .... Weather is still depressingly crap!!

I've been listening to beatles reently and they're amazing!!

XD
