What Be Your Nerd Type? Quiz Created on GoToQuiz

ever so slightly interesting, considering i spend most my time at a computer, either gaming or doing arty stuff...

I dunno why people I don't know and have never spoken to are adding me to their friends list. I have not written fanfic in ages, and I don't intend to write any more, you can read without friending me. My friends list is for my friends. No one else.

I hate ranting on LJ, I usually rant at my friends. But I have no friends around currently to rant at, so sorry LJ...

Girls night out means girls night out right? From that you assume, a bunch of female friends are going out. I had organised a girls night out with my nmate who i havent seen in aaaages! All is well, find hunky dory. She tells me today, the day of the grand adventure, that shes bringing her dopey lazy wanker of a boyfriend.

Rule 1. NO BOYS ON A GIRLS NIGHT OUT. I have fellas I would have wanted to bring, and now its too late.

This isn't a girls night out any more. It's a date for her and her boyfriend, and I am going to be chaperone. OH JOY.

I want to make excuses, but really, all there is to say is, I HATE YOUR BOYFRIEND AND DO NOT WISH TO SOCIALISE WITH HIM UNDER ANY CURCUMSTANCES. Of course I can't say that because I might upset her. She's very sensitive about people calling her boyfriend a knob, because she knows its true yet is too afraid to be out there alone and wont ditch him.

I am now going to go text every one of my male friends and beg for their company. They can't all have jobs...

		I will marry Christopher Eccleston.
		After a wild honeymoon, We will settle down in Miami in our fabulous Apartment.
		We will have 21 kid(s) together.
		Our family will zoom around in a Purple Ford Fiesta.
		I will spend my days as a Special Effects Supervisor, and live happily ever after.

Because Doctor Who has finally come to an end, the people of my forum, have decided we are going to, each week, watch an old episode of Doctor Who. We are starting off at Series 1, so if anyone would like to join the Chris Doctor discussions, feel free to pop over.

Title: The Day to Day Life of An Earthbound Clone Doctor
Author: Clone_Doctor
Genre: Humour, Romance, Adventure (of day to day life)
Characters: The Doctor, Rose, Jackie, Donna, OC's, 10/Rose
Synopsis: One week after the events of Jounrey's End, and the Doctor is still keeping his journal. Life is looking up it seems.

P.S. He loves comments, keep them coming.

Ok, so I have finally managaed to deal with college and get into work. My job is interesting, to say the least. Mostly because we have one very incompetant member of staff, in a very important position. For those of you who don't know, I work in a Quality Assurance Lab, as an Analytical Lab Technician. We check all the products made by manufacturing before they can be sent out to the customers. However, our head of manufacturing is an idiot. He refuses to stick to the Time Table he is provided (even though QA are his boss, and we need sampls done to our schedule do to the nature of the products we produce) and so things end up coming in late, or wrong, or both late and wrong. It is hilarious for me, who obviously, is in a position that can't be blamed, and refuses to get stressed about my job. But it can be a pain. I have been sat on my arse all day playing Golf on the PC. Why? Because a product is days late to the customer. Manufacturing screwed up the making of it. Because we demanded they take it back and fix it, their head had a tantrum (yes apparently he is 5 and three quarters). This means he refused to do anymore work on it. of course, it is very high priority because it is late, and so it needs to be turned round as fast as possible. My Manager told me to stay in the lab on stand by, so we didn't waste a single second on the analysis. However, all the jobs i had left were out of the lab, so I ended up doing nothing. Aaaaaaaaall day. And still, when I finally get a sample, at 3pm, which is too late to do anything on it, because this type of chemistry takes time, the initial results show it is still fucked up. So Monday, it will have to go back to Manufacturing, and the whole thing will have to be done again. Joy.

However, despite the irritation. I love my job. Ok, I don't love it. I find it rather boring. I look forward to Fridays with a passion not known to me before. But I like the feeling I get from it. I like working with people who are (mostly) in my age bracket, or of my intellegence, or share my interests. I go to college with 16 year olds who can't egt into their schools sixth form. They are all (but a few) chavs. None of them are interested in much, other than shooting things in the gaming modules. I find myself intellectually stunted. I find myself bored by them. But at work, I feel I can thrive mentally. I enjoy my break time, talking literature with some of the guys from the other lab. I like talking music with the other tech in my lab. I just love it. :)

As some of you may know, I am planning to go to the University of Glamorgan to study Computer Animation. To get in, one needs to complete an interview and produce a portfolio. My mother, in all her supportivness, makes no secret of the fact she thinks I suck, and stand no chance. However, despite her put downs and glib remarks, it has not been all bad. She thinks I am so bad, she bought me a drawing book (for beginners) and a graphics tablet. Excellent. They come in very handy.

I now wish to prove to her, and everyone else that I am not rubbish. No, I may not be the next Van Gough, but the whole point of University is to train you to become a professional. This leads me to believe that I do not to be a pro to get in.

My entire portfolio is not yet complete, but I have a few things that I am proud of, and wish to get feedback on.

( Art behind the cut )

So how does one beat boredom? The obvious answer of course, is to do something. Occupy your mind, or your body, and the boredom just disperses into the stratosphere. Wrong. I have reached the point, where I am in fact so bored, that just thinking of things to do, bores me. And so, in a freak twist of fate, I opt to do nothing. Lie face first in bed, and cease to exist. It seems to be working... Ish.

I logged into LJ with the intention to rant about my woes and bore you all to death. But then I realised, that's exactly what I would be doing. Boring you. All those readers living in the abyss of cyberspace, care little about the aggravating day I had, nor do they feel much attachment to me. Add to that the fact that really, my life is not that bad. My mother keeps telling me I don't know how lucky I am. The TV keeps telling me there are kids starving in Africa. And I am sure someone will lose their brother, father or son out in Iraq whilst I type. My issues? Pffft. Who cares?

Originally, creating an LJ was my way of keeping in touch with my friends when I went off to university. Keep it updated, keep them updated. But I never got round to sending out the address? Why? Well, I have their phone numbers, email addresses, home addresses. I would see them at summer. Would speak to them on msn. Of course, I don't use any of those methods of communication. I have made little effort to keep in touch with them, and on the flip side of that, they make no effort at all to keep in touch with me. You don't care, and they don't care.

I am also not an egomaniac. I don't keep an LJ like I would a personal diary. I don't post all my dark private thoughts out in a public forum in an attempt to obtain sympathy. I don't use it to voice my political views or opinions, thinking that they might matter. Nope. Search through my LJ. Go on. Have a look. All you will find are a whole host of really shit fanfic, and a few messages to my friends.

So why bother with LJ? Heck, I don't know...

My buddy mentioned the other day, somewhat pointedly I think, that I had not posted in my LJ for some time. Well, to be fair I have had very little to say. After being removed from university my life hit an all time low. The last twelve months have been an up hill struggle to get back on track. Despite heading in the right direction, I felt I had fallen too far behind the crowd, and would never get out of the rut I seemed to have got myself into.

Yet here i am today. It is the final half term at my local college. I got to finish a day earlier than the rest of my class because I have handed all my work in. I am chilling alone, bellowing classical music from incredible speakers, and feel like the smile etched onto my face could never be wiped away. Not even with strong detergents.

Why?

Thanks to my college course, I have become a decent programmer, and better still, been able to harness my creative nature into something useful. With some constructive criticism from one friend (who will never own an LJ, even if her life depended on it) and some tips, tutorials and frankly remarkable encouragement from my other friend, (boulette_sud) I have managed to start animating on Fireworks, Photoshop, Flash, Director and now Maya. Animation and digital art has become a activity of great enjoyment for me, and I am spending increasingly amounts of time before a computer. Though I am still not that good, there has been a noticeable improvement.

Thanks to my brother, who I miss hugely, and his constant emails, we have started competing with 3D imaging. He's a designer and engineer. His graphics are perfect to the smallest detail. Me, I have artistic flare. The next coming months, whilst I spend more time on Maya, could be interesting. I will impress him if it kills me.

But fun times are not the end of the story. The dream to go back to university and leave this small time town behind me is becoming a realistic hope for the future once more. My funding crisis has been fixed. I now have a list of universities that I would love to go to. Primarily, Glamorgan, which is renowned for it's Animation course. I have been chewing my nails, and stressing over the last few weeks. The word "portfolio" struck fear into my heart like you would not believe. But today, for the first time, after successfully, planning, drawing, and animating the first half of a 3 minute short film, I feel an interview by portfolio can not be that bad at all. Bring it on I say.

Happy New Year to everyone. 2007 is no more, and bring on 2008. I started the year how I intened to go on. Surrounded by friends, boozed up to my eyeballs. It was a great party, and I am glad I went to. Possibly the best party ever! Though I have still yet to see Transformers all the way through!

My Christmas was amazing! My brother came back from Yoevil to spend it with us. I am quite close to my brother, so it is really nice to see him. Plus he seemed really happy, perhaps the happiest I have ever seen him. I reckon he loves his job.

My present of a robot guinea pig to my mum went down a real treat. So well in fact that she seems to be neglected her real guinea pigs! May have to pick up the slack!

I won't bore you with a list of pressies that I got, but let's say it was a very good one! Everythign was a surprise really, and they really did well at picking up on what I like. I love them all!

So... We have been told Billie Piper will be back, and yet, no sign of her in the series 4 trailer. Also David Tennant recently said in an interview that he had no scenes with Billie. Everyone cried. However, I just watched the series 4 trailer and saw Donna and the Doctor snogging, a few scenes later we see them holding hands and gazing at each other lovingly. We all know that's never going to happen.

So here are my thoughts.

Rose and Donna swap bodies. Donna will be trapped on the other side of the void in Rose's body, and Rose on the Doctors side in Donna's. I kind of happy reunion, but obviously they can't stay in the wrong body, and they have to be put back.

It's fanwank because, yes the Doctor and Rose get to snog. It also deals with the 'why would Rose leave again?' question. It also does not take any thing away from Doomsday, because Rose really can't cross over, not physcially anyways.

What do people think?

I feel cold inside, my bones ache and my back hurts. Yes, it has happened I am now old. I have come to realise the only thing I have left to look forward to now is my 30th birthday which is leading me to spiral into an early mid life crisis.

Ok, so I'm kidding. I had a great day, and a great weekend. Managaed to celebrate for like 4 days straight. Mum cooked me a cake and bought me real champaign and it was fantastic. Everything just perfect. I am really gratful for all those who managed to meet me down the pub on friday, and the DSC who showed up to help me celebrate on Sunday. Also the retreat in Norton, for making me a nut free meal on Saturday. Everything was great. I now have the entire dvd boxset of Series 3 Doctor Who to sit through, and hopefully another 80 minutes of DT Diaries. Looking forward to it. Also looking forward to the added perks of being 21, like being able to rent a car... even though I can't drive...

And I forgot to mention, I got ID'd down the pub on Saturday! I have never feltso complimented in all my life!

Because a sudden plot hole appeared in my fic 'Wasteland' I have been taking a break to work it through. However in celebration of the news I saw tonight, and because jessdoctorwho21 has demanded it, I put my mind to writing something new.

Hopefully a feel good reunion fic. What better kind of story is there!

Title: Chasing Ghosts
Author: Asimus
Rating: U/None
Characters: Ten/Rose Unknown companion
Genre: Romantic fluff of the reunion kind
Disclaimer: If they were mine... well I should LJ cut that...

( He sees her face everywhere and he’s learnt to block it out. It doesn’t do to chase after ghosts during a crisis. )

Wow it has been ages since I have made a proper post. I have to say things have gone from depressingly terrible, to the greatest days of my life. A number of things accored which have changed my life for the better.

First off, I started at college. I was worried as I was so much older than my classmates that I wouldn't fit in. I couldn't be more wrong. It seemes most of us are a bunch of social misfits, and we have all seemed to have gravitated togther. We take up the biggest table in the canteen and the chavs (there are an awful lot) don't bother us when we're on mass. The course itself is awesome, the work is enjoyable, and i really think i may do well at this. I'm ever considering going back to uni when i'm done with this course.

The next thing is the DSC. I found them thanks to a friend on my forum. They are such an awesome group of people. everyone supports each other and it feels like being part of such a big family. its an amazing feeling. the first thing i do when i get home from college is to log onto the site and see what everyone is up to. the guys are awesome, and i am really greatful to Dino, Russ and OG who provide a place for us to hang out. i have made so many good friends through the DSC and have found there is always someone to talk to. The days of feeling alone seem to be a thing of the past and thats thanks to them.

Happy sanhuin folks, and bonfire night.
