Blogathon

August 29, 2006

Right, now I actually have a heap of stuff to blog about after being too tires or ill to blog about it on its own I decided i’d do it now. So here we go,

Firstly id like to start with my AS results, after a whole year of hardly giving any effort and bare attendance at the beginning of the year. I came away with…bareable results shall we say. Well ill get straight to it and come out with it.

History :- HI1 – B, HI2 – B, and HI3 – D, which avaerages out to a C overall

Biology :- Transport module – B, Human Health & Disease – D, Something else i cant remember – C. C Overall.

Chemistry :- CH1- C, CH2 – E, CH3 – C. D Overall.

As you may see, not bad overall but thanks to 1 paper 2/3 of my grades have slipped, what a pain in the tits ¬.¬

Right, next comes the fun stuff. PAINTBALLING, lol what a day. Firstly thanks to Wilko’s who paid for the minibus and their emplyees to go (and also allowing each employee to take 1 person). Overall the day cost £40 which isnt a problem for myself but others may find a tad off putting, but believe me, its worth it. Well, as the day went we got to the Facility at around 9am I believe ( The facility being Delta Force paintballing in Cardiff ). Once we had arrived we had to wait a while for other random people to turn up to fill the spaces for the day. Once we were finally let in we were given 500 paintballs each and collected our ‘freshly laundered ninja suits’ as Richard put it and other essential gear. We were then split up into 2 teams, Red and Blue, these were the teams we were suppost to be on for the rest of the day. Next were given a ’safety breifing’ which was some CD with a women repeating a bunch of rules and regs, mainly saying KEEP YOUR GOGGLES ON AT ALL TIMES, which after 10 minutes got tiresome. Then some guy from newport who used the words “knows it” rofl, explained how the games would work, whether they would be attack/defend or total elimination ect. The first game we played was speedball, which was one of my favourites. And before we had even started some fat guy took his goggles off……….knob, and within a minute of a guy fidling with a phone the Nazis came and took him away to tie him up with piano wire….and he was never seen again. After being ‘de-flowered’ in the first round of speedball.. OWW, we went on to play another round of speedball and then another 5 game types (2 rouns each game type, 10 minutes a round) Does sound like much but you have a break between each game to de-steam your goggles, buy a drink and ammo etc. But its still enough to fuck your legs up for 3 days rofl. It was a really good day out, but it got a bit worse at the end when in one of the last games it was just me and Richard against an on-coming army………..not a nice situation anyway. As expected we were out relatively quickly. And as we were walking away, hands high in the air. Some FAT CUNT decides to lay into myself, hitting me three times, in the shin, inner thigh and wrist (which looked like a tuma after 5 minutes of swelling) I was ok with the first shot, maybe it was reaction, but when you concider its a semi-automatic gun, and you have 2 people with their hands in the air and backs at you and a marshall shouting “GAMEOVER!!” It was too much for me and I snapped, by snapped I mean turning around and laying into the cunts face, to which I got “OI” shouted at me from a marshall, this little point blanc target practice made me a little less pissed off. Luckily there was no way of finding out who is was or I swear to fuck I would have hit the cunt, no matter how old or big he may have been. But after that it was the last game and with several hundred rounds left I went nuts, which was good because we were attacking first on a game where the defenders could not leave this so called ‘fort’ they started in. Due to the nature of the paintball guns and the paintballs themselves they do arch. So I got my aim so they were flying just over the little window ledge the defenders had and they arched down and must have been hitting necks and shoulders as I got at least three out hehehehehehe. Well after that we were ready to fuck off home when OH NOES the locker key is gone so we ask the….well, whoever she was person for a master key….which she had lost. So in the end we were told to go to the manager who said ” blahdy blahdy no problem ill get it sorted now”, after this he continues to talk to random people for half an hour and EVENTUALLY gets some guy with a screw driver to ply it open…………..FFS BEAN COULD HAVE DONE THAT !!, hell, anyone could of. Anyway, after we got to the minibus and got home I basicly colapsed and woke up the next day…..end.

Next was Alton towers, which follwed 5 days after Paintballing, this again was a good day although I cant some how think feeling we were out of luck that day, being that the Rapids ride broke down when we were queing. Then the stupid transport system they have which is some kind of gondala contraption stopped and left us suspended 10,000,000,000 feet over some rather nice garden. Then after an hour of waiting to go on air we spent half an hour of that waiting within meters of the ride because it was…………BROKEN, how pro. We spent these 30 minutes taking the piss out of everything they did. Which seemed to ammuse the surrounding queuees. These gags uncluded the infamous, ‘Oh look, its Triple M or Matt the Maitenence man with his bunch of keys to fix the problem’ or, “THERES YOUR PROBLEM, THERES A FAT MAN ON THE TRACKS”. And the mere cat which is simply too ninja to explain. But after 20 minutes of waiting nothing had changed appart from they had got the BLUE LIGHTS to work !!!!!!!……..which soon went off again, so who knows. Maybe it was the blue lights we were waiting for…..i mean no ride is complete without its Blue lights ! *sigh* anyway, we got a priority card for one ride……excluding Rita ofc…..gay, which we chose to use up on Nemesis to the utter discontent to the other people queuing…HA! And oh what a ride. Then we spent a while queuing for Rita, Queen of Speed which is basicly a scam of the “Rock and rollacoaster” in Disney Paris. 0-60mph in 2.5 seconds, thats 0.5 seconds faster than Rock and rollacoater but you think you feel it more as you are outside, rather than inside. But all in all I would rather Rock and Rollacoater as you have a few loops and corkscrews etc. also some cool strobe lights at certain splaces etc. But Rita did make my lips Bleed…..rofl, maybe the G-Force would have ripped my face off if it went any faster lol. Anyway after this we went to Oblivion which is one of if not my favourite ride. As well as the G-Force as you fall 90degress into a tunnel in the ground they stop you facing into it at the top of the tracks…the susspence is amazing. But for some reason the queue was on existant so we manages to get on Twice before we slugged back to the Coach for the second 4 hour leg home….my god what a poo driver lol, other than that on the way there located behind my seat was some sort of boiler with a tap on…i suppose for the drivers coffee during waiting for us all, but it decides to spit boiling water at everyone in the surrounding area rofl. Of course we all blaimed Bean and accused him of turning the tap on hehe, but he seemed to deny it all. Anyway, that was also enough to put me to sleep as I only remembered I was going at 1am the same morning and getting up at 6 to go!

Other than that ive not done alot, other than be ill for the last to days, randomly feeling ill and throwing up in the night, who knows what I got it from, anyway thats that mrs. thats that for now.

Assault Vest

July 3, 2006

My new assault vest arrived today from Surplus And Adventure Which is nice because now I dont have the whole weight of my equiptment on my back in the form of a bag. Nice and even now, which will make for less painfull walking *hoorah*

Its nice to notice that its basicly adjustable at every joint on the thing which has made it really comfy to wear. Its also light, has nice padded areas and the pockets have more space than a large box, so I cam carry more junk shooting now, yay. Another plus, good GPM Camo sceme……woot, bring on the shooting…when it cools a tad.

In other news, LAN IN A DAY !!!111oneone :D

The outing pt.4

June 27, 2006

Sunday was the day of our 4th official shooting outing, being only the second of the 4 not to be put down by the weather. Id be tempted to so it was too hot, but in all fairness it did get a bit overcast which cooled it down after the walk up. After a little shooting session my instincs took over and I made a lovely fire with the help of the mad axe man Jamie who began cutting wood like no other. Shortly after this the weather appeared to take a turn for the worse when it began to rain but thankfully it didnt become so bad we had to hide for hours before going home, and infact cooled the air to a more comfortable temperature. After the fire had burnt out we took a walk across the top of the mountain to see some massive ravine which i would class as a valley. This lead into a walk further west which took us across some big open grass field which resembled no mans land somewhere in normany which was further enhanced when 3 what im sure was German Me109 fighters in close formation flew directly overhead no higher than 100-200 ft above our heads. After this short burst of exitement we walked back across the mountain to the west and then down to basicly directly behind my house which is where i colapsed….

Welcome

June 23, 2006

Firstly welcome to the blog of all things yin.

secondly, I finally gave it to hosting my own blog from my webspace as I was fed up with buy / making new domains all the damn time so I figured i'd give this a go, and so far it seems great. Most importantly no gay pop ups advertising shit no one needs xD yay.

On another note im officially running out of money :( after chipping out £150+ for driving lessons and recently buying Age of empires 3, Rome:Total War gold edition and some music.

Moving on, Jamie has encountered several problematic situations. The main one being that his lovely new iMacs graphics card went poof and he is also looking for a new gun to buy after his Lightning XL got wrote off by an eejit and his Stealth is a pain in the arse to keep pumping up all the time! I do recommend he gets the meteor (my gun). Cheap, reliable and accurate….sorted
