All the while my fortune faded...


Morning on Lake Provoking...perfect

Another picture from Canada, this is the picture I'm greeted with everytime I turn my PC on. Just wish we were back there. Having the time of our lives without a care in the world!
Shame things don't stand still long enough for us to enjoy them... don't you think?

She's in my head, I must confess...

Thought I ran into you down on the street,
Then it turned out to only be a dream,
I made a point to burn all of the photographs,
She went away and then I took a different path,
I remember the face,
But I can't recall the name,
Now I wonder how whatsername has been

Seems that she disappeared without a trace,
Did she every marry old what's his face,
I made a point to burn all of the photographs,
She went away and then I took a different path,
I remember the face,
But I can't recall the name,
Now I wonder how whatsername has been

Remember, whatever,
It seems like forever ago,
Remember, whatever,
It seems like forever ago,
The regrets are useless,
In my mind,
She's in my head,
I must confess,
The regrets are useless,
In my mind,
She's in my head,
From so long ago

And in the darkest night,
If my memory serves me right,
I'll never turn back time

Forgetting you, but not the time

Sorry for this very unorigional blog but I sort of applied to today and I can really 'feel' the lyrics.
It's been good though, me Will and JJ went to town and had a real good laugh (spent over an hour retrieving our Frisbee). I also go the new Stereophonics album, its wicked. I met up with another friend Dan this evening and we went down the pub for a couple a drinks and just some catching up time.
I am so glad its the easter holidays, got a lot of work to do just with out the pressure and sleep deprivation of normal school weeks.

Sigh...

Peanut Butter Jelly with a baseball bat...

Well I don't really know what to say... I've been watching some very bizarre flash movies. Jesus Christ there is some weird stuff on the internet, and it appears to all come from America!!

Anyhoo I went up to Birmingham today with JJ to go to the Outdoors Show at the NEC. It was great, we were both like little kids in a giant toy shop! There was sooooo much stuff we wanted to buy and play with. If only we had a several thousand pound in our back pockets. It was still a very enjoyable day. I'm absolutely shattered though, we were up to a bout 2:00 watching 'Hero', we then had to get up at 6:30 to get to B'ham in enough time. After about 5 hours walking around all the stand we were both ready to fall asleep, which we did in the car on the journey home.

Friday night was good aswell, I was unexpectedly picked up by Scott and driven all over Suffolk picking up strays to be taken to Jim's 18th birthday celebration at Rattlesden 5 Bells pub. It was a good evening. Apart from the last half an hour, but I won't spoil my up beat blog. Claire the fantastic girl she is drove me home after dropping of the other ruffians we had managed to pack into her lil' Fie.

Well I have a Physics test tomorrow, can you get negative marks...?

God Damn Right it’s a Beautiful Day…

What a fantastic day!! I’m in a great mood. The suns shining and the skys blue. School was good even though it was a Thursday, all the lessons flew by. I don’t think any one can wait for the days where we can sit out on the field under the sun! I’m of to Cadets tonight so hopefully it will be as good as the day, I’m sure it will be.

Auf Wiedersehen...

Can you still feel the butterflies...

It's been a little while since I've blogged, either because I haven't been at home or haven't been in the mood to write coherent sentences. The last few days have been pretty good, Friday night Alex came over to 'meet the parents' well just my mum. As everyone knows now its been arranged for him to come and live with me, my mum and brother (god help us all!) That was a good evening and I'm sure made Alex feel a whole lot better.
Saturday was the high point of the weekend, after a late morning I set about preparing for the evening. At 4:oopm Emma and Adam arrived to pick me up and we headed to Thelnetham to meet up with JJ. After about half an hour (just enough time for Adam and JJ to bash out a few songs from there guitar's) Marc arrived to take the four of us up to Norwich. With music playing and jokes being cracked we were on our way. Once in the Norwich we parked up and embarked on the hunt for food. After being cast out from one restaurant we headed to a nice empty Chinese. Where we stuffed ourselves on a large selection of dishes all washed down with some 'Tiger Beer'. After paying and leaving with handfuls of prawn crackers we got back into Marcs tank and drove to the uni' to meet up with JJ's brother, Tom. After another drink and more listening of music (including 'Pretty Fly for a Rabbi') we headed down to the union bar (I see a trend forming) for even more alcohol consumption. After Marc spilt my pint we decided it was time to head upstairs to the gig. We got in halfway through the support act, who ever they were, and began making our way to a favorable position from which to see the band printed on our tickets. Then Jimmy came on! And the begining of a fantastic night! Jimmy Eat World 'Totally rocked!' They played some new stuff some old stuff but all great stuff!!! I can't really right how fantastic it was inside, all hell broke lose once they started playing and it didn't stopped until we got outside! We all came staggering out hot and sweaty, how a great night should always end! We headed for home after heading up to Tom's room again and drinking half the national water supply. We was a very chilled in the car on the way home. We all sat, thinking rather than talking with embrace playing quietly in the background. But we all agreed it was a bloody brilliant and defiantly in need of being repeated!

Fuck Yeah...

I'm not gonna stand here and wait...

Well it started of well and ended not to bad, there was a wobbly bit in the middle though. = My day.

At lunch time we received our grades for the exams taken in January. I couldn't have cared less with the grade I was given for general (pointless) studies. I was however rather annoyed with the grade for chemistry. I got a C, I was slightly annoyed for want of a better phrase. I thought I'd done really well a B at least. oh well, the lesson after wasn't much more reassuring. I had forgotten to do a whole frigging essay due in this afternoon.
Cadets wasn't too bad though, had our exams, I'm hoping I passed or I'll be slightly fed up to say the least. Marc told me that he wasn't accepted for his medical course so he's now not sure what to do with his life. I'm sort off feeling like that, we have to decide what to do with our lives soon. I just want to spend my life traveling the world, seeing the sites doing some proper adventure training. Apparently though it costs money, like everything on this god damn planet! lots of thinking to do I think.

Night world...

Amnesia problems...

I haven't blogged lately, I've not been particularly busy. I just can't get into the mind set to do anything. Lots of thoughts, feelings and stuff are floating around inside my head. Theres a 'girl' involved somewhere, but then isn't there always? Life get confused too easily doesn't it? I haven't got anything particular to write reams about.
Alex is moving in in a few months time after her came to me with an 'obscure question'. I'm happy that I can do something to help a good friend. It's nice to know people see you as someone that cares (or just has a spare bedroom).
I spent this weekend up in Stafford, to go to surprise party for my uncle and aunt who have had a rough time lately. It was fantastic to see there faces when they walked into the hall packed with about 200 people all there because they care.

Its been a 'nice' weekend, 'nice' is such a daft adjective!

Will I get what I want from this world?...

Well it's been an interesting, but alright few days. Monday evening was good, all the NCO's went climbing in ipswich which was great fun. On the way home we stopped for a very quick drink and game of cards. (Cheers Claire).
Tuesday evening was spent cramming for my theory test the following morning. After a stupidly early start I headed for the test center. 45 minutes later I left with a big smile on my face a slip of paper with my theory certificate printed on it. "Score one to the good guys!" I spent the rest of the day hanging bloody doors, a job I wouldn't mind if I didn't have to do it with the company of my brother and father, the two noisiest and irritable people I know. Academic tutoring day was also today, a definite waste of 15 minutes of my life (I think you'll agree)

...I'm a day dreamer...

I listened to this song Step On My Old Size Nines today for the first time in months, and that line has sort off summed up my feeling towards these few weeks. Everything has been flashing past while I've just sat and wondered what life would be like if 'she' liked me, or if I had the balls to ask 'her' out for a drink. Emotions are complicated things, especially when your unsure of who and what you want. Wouldn't life be so much easier if everyone told everybody there feelings towards them? Ah well lets see what develops, my email address is frankcp87@hotmail.com lol

Random thought (sorry to steal your idea Alex)
Why do they put A-Z's on the top shelf with the 'adult literature'?
