Just tried to "remote desktop" to my home machine.

My computer has crashed for the first time since I have been at university. Either that or the cable company has cut me off for constant downloading for four weeks saturating my 600kb/s connection.

Oh well, I'll find out when I go home tommorrow.

First off thanks to all the people who gave their suggestions and advice on my last Journal entery all has come in handy.

This is the first time I have been able to get on the net properly in halls, before I had to pay 2p a minute so I didn't bother but I have found a modem on an internal extention which allows me to get online for free!

It has been a great first week, been out every night and got mashed off my head (sorry jts). In the day all these girls come upto me saying "hi" and I don't remember who the fuck they are, lol apparently I danced with them the night before.

My flat mates are great too, we all get on so well, like a house on fire we stay up talking until 5 or 6 in the mornings after a good night out. There is 9 of us sharing 1 kitchen and we all have our own bathroom/toilet.

I had my first lectures today, the first one was bearable because it was in a nice room but the 2nd one, "Introduction to AI" was shit, I fell asleep couldn't be arsed to concentrate on that crap.

Anyway we are on our way out, going to the "Dome" tonight... should be packed with sexy bitches.

Today should not be a sad day. It should be a day of celebration, of 2Pacs life and his amazing heart, mind and soul. It has been seven years and i as well as many others who are reading this can still bump Pac everyday and love every word. He has touched all our lives and Pac well always miss you.

RIP 2PAC | 1971 - 1996 | September 13th

I have got alot of heroes/idols in my life, my Nan is top of that list for sure she is the most amazing woman in the world. Then theres my cousin sisters who look after me and have been the closest things to real sisters I have in my life (being an only child).

Then there is the old boring ones, Darwin, Ghandi and Mandela.

2PAC is one of the most influencial, I don't really have respect for other rappers but Tupac was not just an enterainer he was one of the most amazing and powerful personalities I have had the pleasure of studying. His songs are deep in a way that even the best poets of all time cannot match. Reading his words reminds me of the complexity and depth of Shakespeare.

Tupac fans on slashdot please leave a comment if Tupac has touched your life in any way.

This is a story of the last 24 hours in my life. It's rather hectic. I am currently living a dream life where everything is perfect.

So it all starts off last night at 21:00, I on my way to a little town called Loughborough [pronounced Lufbra] about 12 miles from Leicester [pronounced Lesta]. I have been going to college there for the last two years and have many friends who live there. It was the birthday of an acquaintance lets call her M. Although I don't know her too well I do get along with some of her friends, who begged me to come. Not that it was required, Loughborough has a kicking nightlife .

I'm driving there so I can't drink, the legal limit is about a pint of beer but I never take the risk and don't drink at all when I am driving. I've been drinking for years and the novelty has worn off so this is not a problem. I love driving to Loughborough because the road is a lovely dual carriage way so I can drive at 110mph all the way, it's fucking great, once I did the whole journey in 6m43s (yes I timed myself!!).

OK I arrive meet A, J1, J2 at the pub we sit just catching up, A has moved house and J1 has passed his driving test! Woo! J2 is A's friend who I have not met before. A has told J2 that I am a psycho who's just come out of jail for stabbing someone and that I'm crazy and will beat the shit out of anyone who pisses me off in the slightest. His reaction to me is hilarious he is scared shitless and doesn't even know how to act. Hahaha! We change venue to a slightly trendier bar called newsstands and meet the rest of our friends there. [THE GIRLS!]

We're chilling in Newsstands and I'm talking to this girl sitting on my lap we'll call her S. I was joking and kind of being a jerk, teasing her etc. I don't know when the conversation turned serious but she asked me if she looked as good as these other girls in the bar, I just laugh at her... she runs off and starts crying!! WTF?!? I tried apologising but she didn't even want to talk to me after that so I thought fuck this shit. We all went to Vice Versa a nice cheesy club where I spent most of the evening dancing with the two girls S compared herself too. I mean, if you act like a stupid fucktard then fuck you I'll dance with the sexy girls.
This seemed to have a great effect on S and by 01:00 she came to me and said she was sorry! I finally got to apologise and danced with her for a while but that's all.

I was giving a lift home to a girl called P and when we got back to her house she was telling me all this shit about how much she loves me and I'm gorgeous(WTF?) and we made out for about an hour, she wanted to go further but as she was drunk and I was not I didn't want to take advantage and have some fucking sexual assault shit on my case. I left her at 03:30. I feel like shit due to the fact I was sooo dehydrated because I wasn't drinking, when I got home I drank 2 litres of water and has a quick peek online to see if FortKnox was on AIM as I'd offered to show him around some of the Enemy-Territory levels. Fortunately he was not on and I was very tired anyway, off to bed I go.

Wake up at 10:45, realise that I have to go out for a girl I'll call R's birthday. Ice Skating in Nottingham and I'm supposed to be meeting her at 12.20 so we could get the 12.45 train. Lucky my dad had a day off and could drop me off there because I would have never made it in time. Seriously I take fucking ages to get ready in the morning, with all the shaving, having a shower, nice cooked breakfast, watching a little news and checking my emails.

Ice skating was fun there was about 20 of us there and I was surprised to learn that I was not actually the worst skater there :-)
We got home for about 19:00 and I immediately generated a few Windows XP Keys. I had to go and fix my cousin sisters' computer; vmm32.dll on Win98 was corrupt so I thought bollocks to that crapware time for XP. So I get there, install it, patch for blaster, setup network and leave the windows update downloading about 180mb of updates!
I arrived home for about 23:00 and typed all this crap up. Tomorrow I have work, so it's the end of a (slightly geeky) dream. After all who doesn't feel joy at destroying Win98?

And if you thought the New Labour government was a friend to the BBC, look no further than the current saga surrounding dead scientist Dr Kelly - where the Blair government went head-to-head with the corporation, sparking an almost unprecedented Hutton Inquiry. New Labour had clearly been spoiling for a fight ever since John Simpson didn't quite agree with the government line while standing under missiles in Belgrade. The left-wing bias of many BBC employees has always made it unpopular with right-wing governments.

If you actually read the whole thing it reveals the source of these rumors are some PR secratery left in charge while her boss was on holiday.
