Such a failure...

So I had my driving test last week and unfortunatley I failed. Granted the reason why I failed wasn't my fault since at a junction a Jaguar ahead of my hesitated at the lights and just as I went to move off the lights began to change to red. I was stuck over the line and so got a serious. Had the Jaguar not hesitated I would have gotten across fine however, while it was not my fault I got stuck over the line, my lack of judgement was... so yer, i'm not entirely blameless. Anyway, i'm not one to lie down and take it, I've already booked my retest...

It's been another busy week of editing video and preparing stuff although I finally got to let my hair down last night by going down to the new Wetherspoons. Arriving late for once (seriously, i'm usually one of the first there and would have been except for an error with a video on my part) I found everyone had ordered 20 minutes before me so was left with having to order a Panini... while they all tucked into steaks. Anyway, it wasn't a great night out because no-one really got drunk because of all the food we had ate... I get the feeling it's going to be one of those events that happens every one or two months. We'll probably do it again before Christmas when everyone is back but it just doesn't have the atmosphere (or cheap beer) that the Wine Bar does.

MySpace... Its MyAddiction

I've increasingly found myself login onto Myspace because i've been bored over the past few weeks and the more and more I do it the more and more I feel I am becoming addicted; but why?

I get the impression that as I go out more and more with my friends and find ourselves taking funny pictures (see opposite), and equally making more and more short movies that I can't help but log on to see whether new pictures that in my drunken stupor I may have forgotten about or just plain can't get enough of, the more and more I become addicted. It's not a bad addicition, not like becoming addicted to tabbaco, nicotine, beer, drugs or videogame forums, its still gripping that little part of my life.

Oh well, if its helping my social life which has perked up 10 fold in the past month, then it can't really be that bad of a thing...can it?
