Slum Life

Hello friends.

So as I mentioned in my last post, I am now living with my mom. But fortunately, i got paid on Saturday, so I’ve booked the ferry tickets to see +Tracey Ryan. And I damn well can’t wait to get out of here. It’s been horrible.

  • There’s no working vacuums
  • The hot water takes ages to warm up
  • Most parts of the house don’t have a carpet
  • You have to put money in the TV to watch it. Luckily i have my TV
  • Nail clippers are very hard to find
  • My bedroom (which used to be my half sister’s, so is pink and has glow in the dark fairies on the wall) is full of my sister’s stuff. When i first got here, it had loads of junk, most of which was moved into the attic or thrown out. There’s still some junk in there now
  • No-one opens the curtains. I have to do it
  • No-one closes doors behind them. I have to do it
  • No-one does the washing up. It’s always “someone else’s turn”. I usually end up doing it
  • There’s junk everywhere. Even before i brought my stuff here
  • Pretty much everything is dirty. I’m literally scared to walk around in bare feet. I’m always in my slippers
  • My half sister is a lazy, stupid, uncaring git who only gives a damn about herself and whatever boyfriend she happens to be with at the time
  • There’s always stuff left around the floor for people to trip over. Mostly left by my sister
  • When people finish off a toilet paper roll, no-one changes it. I have to
  • There’s no space for my few toiletries (razors and the like). They have LOADS of it
  • They’re both female smokers. They are constantly coughing. Especially mom with her “chest infection”

That’s all I can think of right now, but I’m sure there’s more i haven’t thought of. I might add more later.

For a while there was no internet, but being the genius I am, i used a SIM that my mom uses in a “broadband” dongle, and put it in my phone and used it as a wi-fi hotspot, so now we all have internet instead of just one computer. Although obviously it’s slow. And signal is usually quite bad, and sometimes didn’t work at all. Another problem with the T-mobile/EE SIM is that they block content which they deem “adult”, and when you go over the unfair fair usage policy (which isn’t much), they also stop you watching YouTube, even when the videos are embedded on a website or something. Chances are, if you use YouTube a lot, you’re going to get through that fair use policy very quickly.

I also didn’t have any internet on my phone because I’ve used it all and it doesn’t get renewed until 4th November. So for several days

Because of the lack of internet, I wasn’t able to do much for job searching. I told them that at the job centre and they seemed to let me off. Especially since it’s their fault. But eventually they paid me, and now i have a decent amount of money (for now). I’m going to try not to spend too much of it. I might buy a PlayStation Vita when the knobcentre pays me again on Monday, but other than that, not much else.

On an unrelated note, this my my 50th post. I think I’ve done pretty well. I’ve got over 13,700 views. To other people, that may not seem a lot, but it is to me. I’m sure there’s more popular blogs out there by normal people like me, but ah well. I do seem to be getting several views every day. It’s pretty consistent actually. Just today I’ve had 8, and yesterday I had 7. Last month i had 354!

I did have my stats displayed here, but they don’t display anymore, probably because i closed my Blogger account after this was originally posted. so i removed the stats.

Anyway, that’s all for now. Next time i blog, I’ll be living in Ireland with my girlfriend. Until then, chums. Toodles

Comedy and Fun

So for the past few hours I’ve been on a bit of a comedy buzz. No reason, i just like it. It’s obviously funny. So far I’ve watched some clips of Top Gear. Always funny. Them idiots, especially Clarkson. What else? I’ve seen the roasting of David Hasselhoff. That was funny. Just celebrities abusing each other basically. There’s a William Shatner one i wanna watch. Now I’m watching Jim Carrey live in 1991. Hilarious. And i don’t mean that sarcastically. It really is. With his rubber face. Oh man, classic. Now time for some Rowan Atkinson

Also, Tracey had been here for a couple of weeks up until a few days ago. We had an amazing time. It was a lot of fun. Lots of games, lots of films, mainly the Karate Kid films, lots of sex. Bit of shopping. Lots of pizza. I’m definitely going to move in with her.  I just need to arrange an international mover. I wanna get out of here as soon as possible and move in with my perfect partner.

Today and yesterday I went on a short course to help with making a professional looking CV. (That’s a resume to you Americans). It was pretty interesting. But it could have been made a lot shorter (the course, not my CV. That needs to be longer). It was really stretched out. He could have just just gave us a booklet and that’s it. But he had to make us work in groups didn’t he. I hate that. But it did have a bit of useful information. There was good funny people there that made it better. I’m still unemployed by the way

My phone fell off the bed the other day and i pulled it up by the USB cable because it was charging off my laptop and my laptop was close. I think pulling it up by the cable may have damaged the phone or the cable. Why does this always happen to me? The next phone I get won’t be charged by micro USB. It’s just too easy to damage. I want some larger, stronger proprietary connection, like what the Galaxy Note 2 and Asus Transformer has. I’m getting very annoyed at the reliability of the Galaxy Note.

Oh, one more quick thing. Google sent me something saying if i spend £25 within a month on advertising, they’d give me another £75. So I spent £25 in about a week. And they gave me the £75. So now I’m getting quite a bit more views on my blog and YouTube. Oh my God, I’ve just realised I have over 9000 views, i can finally say “IT’S OVER 9000!!!!”, and it’d be true. I don’t like advertising. But I’m glad I’m paying a bit to have adverts show my stuff. It’s earned me a good few views. Thanks Google. Always been a big fan. Employ me. Woah, who said that?

Anyway that’s all for now. I’m getting in bed before i get attacked by moths. Toodles

Computer Building Update

Hello my pretties. I thought i would update you with how my computer building is going.

Not so long ago i bought a CPU fan and thermal paste from good old eBay. Oh eBay, what would i do without you? Then a couple of weeks ago i got a processor. Now, the processors i want are generally around £300 for a 3ghz quad core. I managed to get one off Amazon for… an amazing £150. Yep. Half the normal price. I was surprised to find it. so i’ve fitted everything in.

There’s just a couple more parts i want. A better power supply and a graphics card, the ATI Radeon HD 6850, since it has excellent performance for its price. I won’t be getting it this month since i literally have -£1 in my bank, so i’ll get it next month.

I can probably get by with the power supply it has, but i really need the graphics card soon to get it at least functioning. I also want a few more 2gb RAM sticks.

On another note, I’ve been watching a lot of things on Netflix recently. Especially Knight Rider. I hope they bring Airwolf back as well, i used to love that. And my amazing girlfriend Tracey showed me a show called the 4400, so i started watching that as well. It’s freaking awesome. It’s like a mix between Smallville and the X-files (even with new Mulder and Scully types).

And finally, I have now hit over 5000 views on my blog. Good work peeps. Get recommending it to people you know. Share it and stuff. And go read my girlfriend’s blog as well here.

One thing i’ve just noticed is that my previous blog is in the top 5 viewed posts. That’s weird. What did i put in that to make it so popular in such a short amount of time? Maybe i should start putting topless girls in here to make it even more popular.

My stats. 5000 views and latest post becoming popular

54 views in less than 2 weeks. That’s pretty damn impressive, even if i do say so myself. Maybe someone is interested in what i do. Maybe someone is interested in building a computer as well. Maybe my old best friend is showing all her family and friends my post, badmouthing me. That’s what she does. Gets everyone involved.

Anyway, enough about her. I’m off to play some more Battlefield 3. Toodle pip, old chap!

Bicentennial

Congratulations. We have now surpassed 2000 views (2115 to be exact). We are well on the way to getting…

Yep i went there again. OVER 9000!!!!!!!!!!! Anyways, well done on getting to over 2000 views. That’s it, just wanted to update you all on that. Toodles

Milestone

OK, so i did a blog a while ago about hitting 1000 views. I thought that was pretty impressive (for me). Now i’m at almost 1500 views. 1500! HOW?! WHO?! I did ask for people to leave a comment if they read it, they obviously totally ignored that, except my sexy girlfriend Tracey who comments on most.

So get to work. Start reading some more and make me hit 1500. And then 2000. And then i’ll TAKE OVER THE WOOOOORLD. Or something. I’m sure there was something else i wanted to say as well but i can’t remember what. Oh well, i’ll do another blog when i remember it. If i do.

Oh, and i think you should ALL read my blogs many times and share them with EVERYONE you know so i can go OVER 9000?!!??!?! Ah i love that.

My New Website

I would just like to announce that i have created (in a loose sense) a website. By that i mean i have used sites.google.com to create a template for my website. You can find it at https://sites.google.com/site/mikipediaspot/home. It is pretty empty since it’s brand new, but it does have a theme, some pages and some pictures. I think i’ve done quite well for about an hour’s work though. I’ll add more stuff soon.

Oh and since i did my last blog post on 14th November, my blog has hit 1300+ views. All them views and not even many comments. Post a comment if you’re going to read it, so i get a better idea how many people are reading.

So go check out my website!

1000+ Views

Well it’s official. My blog has hit over 1000 views. When i checked this morning, it was 1002. When i checked just now, it was 1020. So i just want to say a thank you to everyone who has read and currently reads my blogs (and will read in the future). So pass my blog on to people and keep on reading! Here’s to 1000 more.
