Enjoyment > Disappointment
I've never really liked Argos. I like the (near) certainty of online shopping or actually seeing what you want on the shelf.
A code in a catalogue gives you nothing, as it did to me today. I rushed after work to see if they'd have what I wanted in stock. The computer I personally punched the number into said they did. I eagerly took the number to the counter to confirm this. No dice.
Thankfully I wasn't too certain that I actually wanted the item in question (a Transformer only just released here in the UK - Yes, I'm a geek). But still...
Anywho, mini rant over.
Work was finally a little more interesting today. Managed to make some progress in the last book I need to read for English - 1984 by George Orwell. After the slog of Frankenstein, it's a welcome relief.
Going out a little later on, which I can't wait for. Perfect chance to put all the rubbish of this week behind me (hopefully without a hangover in the morning!)
Make sure you all make the most of your weekends!

Short and Sweet
Not a lot to write home about really...
Failed my driving test, there's been some drama in drama (but everything should be ok).
University of Essex didn't really blow me away, but at least that's one I can kind of cross off in terms of my choices.
Parent's Evening tomorrow. Should be fun... - spot the sarcasm in that sentence.
Think that might be my shortest post ever. If so, yay me!
Stay classy people.

Let's rock it.
Motivation.
That's the name of the game for me at the moment. If I have it, I am generally in a good place. If I don't, then things tend to not go so well.
Prime example, my history retake exam this week. Honestly, I didn't revise nearly as much as I should've, so it kind've kicked my butt. No point moaning about it, just gotta make sure I work hard as in the rest of history this year.
I'm also getting quite pumped for my driving test now. All I can really do is try my best, since I doubt I'll ever be in a place where I'm truly 'ready' for it. There's just too many uncontrollable things about it. I'll let you know if I'll be able to offer you all lifts of course...
Going out for the first time in a while tomorrow night - should be a laugh.
As always, if you expect that I've posted, wait a day or two longer and you may be in luck.

Aww, poor blog...
Time to give this neglected blog some love.
New Year, new start. Or at least, that's what I'm hoping for. Got a lot of things ahead of me and I'm gonna have to work hard for most of them.
Driving test on January 18th - wish me luck people.
I'm not the kind to really make 'resolutions' as such. But like all of you I'm sure, I've definitely got things I want to change and take control of this year.
Not much more to say really, aside from the fact the work is piling up, as are the frustration levels due to the fact I can't tell the one person I like the most at the moment just that - ah well, the joys of being a teenager.
Catch ya next time folks (whenever the hell that'll be...)
