What I did during the holidays

Well I didn’t get up to much during my week off (a week pah I want my other week like all the schools.)

One of my mates recently passed his driving test so I’ve been driving about with him. No destination or anything just driving around what fun!

Also I got a new computer, well not new but still. Yeah my mates computer’s hardrive packed in so his parents bought a new one. I asked if I could have the old one since he was going to bin it! I could use it to practice on for my hardware course. Within ten minuets I had it fixed and working, great.

Now I use it more than my old one because it has less stuff on the hard drive so it plays my games better.

What else have did I do hmmm?
I’ve been trying to get to grips with my latest piece of kit Fruity Loops.
I’m finding it hard to learn as the manual I was supplied with was a corrupted file, so I have been watching many a youtube video to try and get some tutorials. So far I have found hundreds, so I will have to find some tailored for my taste in music.

Other than that nothing much happened. I spent a lot of time practicing on my guitar. So yeah all was good.

Well don't know what else to write at the moment so when I think of something else slightly interesting I'll post again.

Holiday Work

While I was on Holiday I was given this task to read up on about how a rich Russian billionaire called Alisher Usmanovmade had Tim Ireland's Blog site shut down and Craig Murray former ambassador to Uzbekistan site shut down because they were both speaking about him on their blog sites about his take over of Arsenal football club.

Officially there was no laws broken just some talk about the Russians take over of Arsenal.

He then took offense to these comments and got them removed by making legal threats.

I think the blog hosts were within their right to take down there blogs as they described the posts as defamatory.

Even though it is obvious that the real reason for taking down the blogs was more due to pressure they were being put under by Alisher Usmanovmade.

My Thoughts On this Song

I was asked my thoughts on Bob Marley-Get Up Stand Up Live at the Rainbow. I thought it was quite repetitive and didn't make much sense. I'm not a great fan of Reggae so this song didn't really appeal to me.

I was also asked my thoughts on Bob Marley-No Women No Cry Live at the Rainbow. I thought it was better than the other song I listened to. It made more sense with a chorus that is memorable. All in all a better song in my opinion

General Update on my day

Not much happening today. Watched the Simpson’s movie and it was crap, wouldn't recommend it. Glad when I had the choice I choose to go and see Transformers.

My First Post

Well I've finally started bogging for my college course. The Blog name is a bit boring I know but all I could think of at the time.

Well I've been at college for a few weeks now. The course is very interesting I prefer it to last years. (Although the course's name is the same because I had to re-do it because I was ill and missed most of the last one). I have made some interesting friends. There is more website design in this course which I like and less databases which is good because it's one of the subjects I failed last year.
