A Santa Christmas Shop

Twas the 3 days before Christmas and Santa needed to get some people presents and also see the sights of a city before it ends the year of 2016. Join him as offers and crowds are abound.



The preperation. 

So he woke up, after getting hyped up with what today could bring. He got up and went for a shower, with the Hot chocolate chilli shower gel on his skin and hair wash to make it real. Then he proceeded to getting changed but before that, He checked his E-mails and his FreedomPop account since it was Billing Day and found out he was suspended, He called FP up from the house phone, spoke to a rep and went through the rebilling process and also had to add premium voice since he realised his ulefone paris doesn't let the FP app show the keypad. After that he got prepared, his trousers ripped but he put jeans on underneath to make sure it wasn't too embarrassing for him. Then by 9:58 she was ready to cycle to buy the gifts 

The outfit

The fresh cycle. 

The cycle was a reasonable one, with cars hooting when passing and the weather with bluesky and eventually after breathlessness and legs tirring and bigger rips, the time was nearly 11:30 and then it was there. The bike was parked and he was ready to go for a toilet before getting the presents purchased. 

The fresh sky and winter fields

The wet paths

The time of Santa Arriving

Time for shopping

He arrived and after his Toilet break to find bigger trouser rips, he started. Exploring places in Drake's Circus was for later so he walked to Maplins to find some reasonable headphones, but the prices were a bit higher so it was a nope from me. Then I walked towards the bottom of town, visiting the market and other parts like Cash converters, Wants and Nerdz. Not much in terms of deals for me this time, but it was time to walk up.

A view of the crowds at the bottom of Town
As he walked up, it was seeing the crowds everywhere and the Christmas Market had fleed. But he made is way into CEX which had an idea of a 4GB DDR3  laptop stick for £10 and a 1TB used SSHD for £45. That was tempting for him but he didn't go for it. Then he walked into Game and noticed when browsing, there was a Freedompop Sim Pack, which tempted him, so he went up ahead and thought about it.

He was Looking Back  to the sundial

Then I walked up to Drake's Circus, with crowds heaving in various places. But before that, was Game, which Had the NowTV card but not the FP Sims as far as he saw. The sights were full of crowds, queues in stores, classic dance tunes (which you heard) in HMV as well.

Drake's Circus at a busy time


 He went to HMV and looked around at the headphones, but Then he called someone after asking for a rep for advice on them, it turns out it was for a tablet, so he went with the Sony ones for £19.99. Then it was him to choose 2 DVDs for £20 due to an offer, so he went for Warcraft and Secret Life of Pets. He then proceded to pay, it came to £39.99 and that drake's circus gift card he won paid this. 

The presents for £39.99 in total
Then he proceeded to look into clintons briefly, which actually looked like a heaving mess and then he looked at this card pack for £2.99 and pondered before ending up accidently walking out with it, he rushed back to put it there and was a phew. But then it was a costa trip for giftcards which actually was funny when they ran out of stock. So It was a case of going to the Costa in waterstones. 

When he got in there, he was waiting in the queue and this amazing blonde ssbbw was serving, with her cute hair to her round smile to her amazing shape. She was lovely in accent and kindness too. She even complimented him and he got the 2 £10 costa cards, but the gift card didn't work for paying for it. So 2 £10 notes was the way to go. He even got a feeling below when looking at her. 

The costa gift cards, £20 in total. 
When packing them up, 2 old ladies talked to him, hoping they would get something nice for christmas from Santa, and one hoping he would see Santa after 8 years or so. Then he packed it in the bag and headed out to buy the next gift. The NowTV Pass and FP Sims. So he got them and waited in the queue and there was almost a struggle to get the giftcard to be paying for it, since the staff asked about how much was on there, but they got it sorted nicely. 

The nowTV pass and the FP Sims
Then it was a case of him wandering around town, seeing deals and trying to get some wrapping paper and that was a poundland idea. Which they struggled to have idea for christmas card packs so he left, which was a shame since there were so many ideas that could of been had. Boots was heaving and full of ideas he didn't know on what to pick.

Then he headed back up and went to Lush but that was queueing and it ended up a trip for M&S which was busy and had some good ideas, like running lights and  other bits, Then work called and he was busy dealing with that, while looking at perfumes and other bits and pieces. 

The lights #throughglass

Then it was time to head to get the cards and the wrapping paper he was needing to buy. So Clintons it was, with a shorter queue and the cards were not too bad. Luckily that cost £4.50 so that was time to get that paid for and then time to see how he gets home.

The wrap and the Cards to Write out

The wet journey home.

IT was 3:18 and he cycled off, with his shopping done, Santa finally could get home, with wet weather towards the end and a phonecall halfway through made a delay to happen. The legs were tiring, the trousers were soaked and the phone was being low on battery. By Monksmead, it was a shame that the back tyre went which meant it was a struggle for him to get up the hill but then the chain fell off which sadly made things easier just for him to walk up. So in 2 hours and 2 minutes, he was finally home. 

The view back of town 

A Stormy night was approaching. 

And that was that, Santa was ready to get this all sorted and after a small meal, he was ready to get this up. Just 3 days before christmas. But this will be the last of him this year...

The rushed quest for the fluffy socks, cycle style

This titles is a strange one but this is a day for another birthday present for someone that even though hasn't done much, she means a bit in my life and this could be a moment to prove myself. Long story short, its another cycle trip to town for buying presents.

The weather was good and the time was around 8:30, i woke up missing emma, ok that is just daily life but i miss her even though its not vice versa which hurts. But after that, i sprung out of bed about 2 minutes before 8:40 and started to get the laptop on with a special voucher to make on Word. I won't link it since that will spoil the suprise i have in store, but its a OTT plan that has no chance of working but its the best effort i can think of. But this is better than most of the people that don't even deserve the girls they are with could come up with, thats boastful to say but i really feel this is the 2nd best effort i've ever done with trying to impress somone, the 1st best was the £250 cash, thats the least i can go by.

After making and printing the poster which i'm actually smiling over just seeing, it was time to get changed. The weather is lush and also another of those heatwaves, which is perfect timing, since i did actually do some leaflet deliveries in meh weather on Tuesday and a nice evening on the Monday.

Then i should also mention that i sold some jeans on eBay on Monday, i signed them as well, someone lucky in mutley has won them, sure they only paid £1.61 + £2.50 P&P but thats better than nothing for jeans.



Now, back to the story of the current day, which is meh. Anyways, i got changed and headed out, getting MyTracks to work again, with the GPS getting really good recently, it even worked outside on a cloudy day, after about 2 minutes of holding the phone up in the air like a over head selfie. The journey was not too bad, especially when it was topless and it felt like free aircon and was keeping me mighty fine. I did take the old route for a change, which was nice even though i wanted to speed up, taking 1 hr 50 minutes



View Larger Map

I got in and browsed in primark for jeans. luckily i found 2 pairs of 34W, 30L Jeans, at £5 each. The queue was quite small and i got them paid for and walked out, i did see someone who i don't get on with and that was just a meh thing, i used to find her hot then she lost all of the curves she had and went Paris. Thats all i know.
The jeans that fit me ok but can be slim on the legs, but thats hence the name slim. 
After that, it was more of a waiting game for Swaggy and Pete to meet up, but as i was walking around in HMV and noticed the Ubi merchandise (aka the assasins creed and watch dogs toys, which btw, Watch Dogs is getting REALLY good, i'm near the 4th act and all the side missions completed as well as collected items, i've got the AR games to finish). I noticed a text of a tweet "3 hours left until i finish for 4 days", suddenly life became like a game and there was a time above the players head, so i had to buy the gifts i've wanted to get pretty fast. Since it was half 12 i found out that and i had to speed up and get it to Jess before 3:30, which i'll get into what happened later. But the shopping trip was a fun one.

After i met up with James as he just come out of starbucks and i told him about it. So we started making our way to the market, which our first stop was. For fluffy socks. Now this was an idea thanks to asking Charli, (one i've not mentioned on here before, but just say shes a sister to Jess), when i DM'ed her on what to get her. So we browsed the market, looking in some clothes stores, then we looked at games and there was some manga comic, of course its not a hentai, but the less you know of that, the partly better if you like reality. Anyways i found some socks then looked and saw nothing, which was a bit of a shame, but a turkish guy, a really nice chap spoke to the others and said i was in there and i asked him, he looked and found something perfect, it was small fluffy socks, which looked nice and would do nicely. only £4.99 which i think was a bargain, well compared to goose fair but you know. After that, i had a thought from an odd dream (wasn't fantasy based) which involved giving a back massage with incense lit up to give a sensual smell. So i decided to buy a pack of 5 different incenses (2 of each incense) and a holder for them to be lit and all in all, that cost me £3.
Me and pete shopping in the market, i look like a tourist


Then we ventured out and walked to the closest Pizza hut and then the guy just binned James's starbucks then while he popped to the toilet, i ordered a small little £20 giftcard. That wasn't too bad on timing that i just finished when he came back. So then it was off to Poundland for the bags and another USB Cooling stand. well for £1  you can't go wrong even if it lasts 4 months. I forgot that the others held a place in the queue but i remembered and got that paid on my card, with ease and then we had to walk to barclays since Pete had some standing orders to book in. The casual was chatter, (i meant it was casual chatter on the way) from girls to this place pete went to which was nice and really remote, he nearly even convinced his boss to drive through Tavi. But as i got in there i noticed a beautiful girl, with soft arms and a nice summer dress on and it suddenly clicked to me that it was someone i know, Bridie. I did offer her a meal once as a birthday gift, i wonder if i would happen, but not for a few years i think :/. Also there was a good looking blonde girl talking to her and had a nice, no, a really nice bum in a pencil skirt on too, it reminded me of a bbw comic i saw once but i can't pinpoint it, i should of done something, i even got my glasses on to get a better look of them both, that failed when the blu-tack didn't work.

Then we left and went to to a lappy around the mall, which was ok, not much in terms of sales and girls, but as we were walking in, we were offered some Cinnamon pretzels that were freebies. OMG THE TASTY UUUMF. That was tasty and its not too bad for £3 a pretzel, well actually i heard of something similar for £0.80 but i need to check that for a later date. But then we had to drop something into HSBC then Llyods and Pete left us for work. So me and swaggy got back to starbuck and i packaged up the presents.
The range of Gifts. Total cost was about £29. Including the Bags, a pack of 2 x 5 different flavoured incenses, a holder for the incense, the envolope with something special and a Pizza Hut giftcard of 20 (feeder hint), all in the nice bottle bag
All the presents in the bag and another look at the Poundland USB coolers

A better view of the bag and cooler

After that, it was time to cycle out and get the next bit. So i left about 2:15 and headed out to my favourite florists as of late, which i've even been to when i was on the brink of tears. This florist is really good in value and service, even better than me to be honest. So i bought 2 of the same, one was for Charley, well since i miss my twerking best friend and shes been ill and down, it might be convenient. Then the other was of course for jess. It was easy to put it through the letterbox but it was not easy to fit the other one in my bag.
The first flower, £1 

The 2nd flower, £1 again

Now its time to get over to the mcdonalds, i rush it and get there at 2:57. i also notice the drive through was closed. Anyways i park the bike by the scaffolding and then it turns out Jess left work. I went "SHIT" and walked out then decided to cycle to hers, well somewhere where i think she would be. But then halfway biking it, i get a text from Jess saying her manager called about me, and then said she was in Whitleigh, which was the opposite side but not too bad to reach. I get there in about 20 minutes then it was searching, she said somewhere near the bottom, which after asking a few people, i get my way there.

So, its nearing 4pm and i text her and she arrives with her sis. It was nice chatting to her, we talked a bit about emma, she was going to pick her up but she changed that for a date night with :@. Then she said emma had some problem with her laptop which was a suprise to me. Then she said if i found anyone else and i said no. That and she said about how she left early for work. That and her plans for the birthday weekend. Shes going to be US Legal too, which if things went right, she could of been a great partner for the Vegas BBW Bash, but moreso to give her a slight insight to it.. I gave it over then we split our ways and i headed back.

I took a route through Tamerton Foliot for a change, maybe a big mistake. But it was more scenic and the GPS was picking me up easily. The route back through southway, which was very near where i had the BBQ. But the route i did back was quicker than i thought.

Then it was the final bit of getting home and having a immense cold shower. But although part of me thought today went too far, i was happy with the way things turned out. But there is alot more things from me in the coming weeks.

The shattered dreams for a quest for love

So, it comes to the final week in febuary, times haven't changed that much, the weather is still quite stormy every other day, i'm still owed the £900 and i've been told to await payment, girls are getting knocked up every other days then soon things turn for the worse in the things in life you were paranoid would happen, happen at the worst time. But although i'm reluctant to rant about this, this is important and crucial to the search where this blog was to sum up, so its needed.

So it was a Tuesday morning, the weather was mixed, although it was sunny blue sky, there was a bas class of spitty rain, now this was worrying me to be able to get into town and sort out an extra birthday present for charley as well to get a belated valentines for the one girl i've missed and whos really been on my mind, maybe shes become into my dream girl in various ways, maybe i was turning to her while the money situation was on my mind, to keep me sane, or at least feel happy. But the weather became better so i headed out and cycled to wagamamma's to get the gifts. It was a nice ride, it did take longer than i thought, but i got there, only mildly soaked and that was as i got into town.


View Larger Map

So i got there and it was quite nice, sure the weather was a bit damp but that would be the least on my mind afterwards.
Outside Wagamamma's in Royal William Yard

So i walked in there and there was a blonde bbw serving, she was nice and was nice enough to colour code the cards, i loaded up £20 on each, paid in cash, luckily i got paid £70 for buying a £35 320GB laptop hard drive for a friend of my sisters and get his laptop up and running, that and i've not been topping up on my card until i've had the money back, which has almost been for 4 weeks now :@. Anyways i walked out and got the cards
The Cards i bought. its a nice style for a common card
Now this was when i found out, the one thing i had been dreading for months, Emma got engaged. 
I instantly knew this was going to hurt, i still wish it never happened, but it did, i felt tears and instantly weak. This wasn't good, well for her it is of course, since she gets happy but for someone that would of done almost anything to be with her and this means alot. So i travelled back into town, tears were out of my eyes but i had to push on. I got into town, then parked the bike and went for a toilet, i couldn't keep this in, i slammed my head on the cubicle door thrice, i hated what just happened. The next bit was trying to keep myself together when writing out her belated card. I was shaking as i was by the lottery stand, i wanted to baul my eyes out, maybe i'm over exaggerating but this was alot of happiness just grabbed and kicked to the ground.

Now this was time to actually do this and do what i wanted to get done, although what i wrote was different to what i wanted to write, it was the only thing i could think, but i walked in to maisie's work and after borrowing a pen from a black makeup artist, i wrote a note to her to ask to deliver it and left it under the card reader then walked out and waited in cex for a while, after about 10 minutes looking at phones and ipods, Pete, James and Nath walked in, we said hi and then i was nervy and then after pete asked what i got from wagammas, i told him and nearly burst again, i didn't want them to see that but my emotions were running high. But then it was waiting around and nath was planning to trade in his lover's 360 slim to get a xbone then trade that in for £300 to buy a ps4 for £225, its a long shot but it could work. Then we walked around town for a bit and ended up in Mcdonalds for the afternoon, i didn't feel hungry at all, especially after losing her, so it was pretty much chatting about various things, from geeky stuff to even finding out Bronti and Sash want to do a day out within 2 weeks, i felt skeptical but shes wanting to do something which i should take up on, especially since next week, last year was the first night i saw emma and was in her car, which we went ghost hunting . Which makes it feel at a time i might of been able to do something with her has been washed away. I did get a text from Charley when she found out and she tried to cheer me up, but what she said stuck in with me, maybe in a way which makes me feel uneasy on top of this but i'll get into that later. Things will be better with me and her soon, but that you can find out soon.

After that, it was on the way to the Job Centre, since Swaggy had to get something sorted out with working links, i don't know what but it was a short time to walk around with them. After getting in there, Nath saying the printers were fucked with the touchscreen mini job workstations, it was a quick walk out and back through drake's circus. By this time it was 3:49 and then we split our ways, James and Nath went to working links, Pete went to get the bus and i cycled back home. Now this was a harder ride, with everything on my mind, i didn't want to keep going and even part of me wanted to just crash into a car but as much as i deserve it for being an idiot and not trying hard enough so i could of had the chance. It would cause my life to be much worse and lose out even moreso than now. 

But before i left, i did do one thing which i perhaps shouldn't of done or actually won't even matter or even make it worse, but i had been hesitating on doing this for a while and i said to myself that "she needs a personal touch", so i walked into the florists in mutley and looked for something and explained i was looking for a belated valentines present, she suggest some flowers for £5 and i bought them, i was nervous, feeling like a heartless douchebag but i knew that if i didn't do this, someone else will and it would end up feeling the same with someone else as well as Emma, although i feels its going to end up like that anyway. So i wrote the card out the sales rep gave me, she did convince me to have a card, she mentioned that "use girls are weird, we like the tiny things like this". So i wrote it out. 
The writing in the card, part of me knew this won't make anything happen but i've lost enough already. 

The flowers i bough Sophie
Now i left and cycled over to a few blocks down the road and then i was nervous as i walked in her best mate's works and waited for a minute until she was finished chatting to a colleague, then i spoke to another staff member asking if i could speak to ash, she said ok then i waled over and she was wearing a nice red top along with some nice glasses, i asked if she could give this to sophie, she said yes and then i walked out after thanknig her, then it was another cycle back, to reflect on the possible choices i could take to win her heart over, but nothing viable was there, just the good old fashioned revenge on him and make him really know how much this has hurt me. Will it happen, it probably won't but i won't back down if it does. 
Eventually i got home about 6:30 and it was cold as well as tea was just about ready which was nice.

 But this was pretty much it. This was the clear track of finding out that i've lost the dream girl, the angel, the jackpot, whatever someone would call the "one". I know i haven't made as much effort as i should have, i knew i fell into a dream of wonder when me and her started which was going to end up for worse, but i wanted to actually make this work, time has changed in the 2+ years that i've fallen for Emma, from the world of Technology rapidly evolving, from being given more responsibility in work, from boosting up this blog, from making not one but 2 Short stories which although i wanted to many years ago with Sammy and her best friend Seona, i never had the courage and skill to do it, which she gave me indirectly, i've even done crazy amounts of present giving, which as much as some people are shocked with, i've learned and become alot more confident on doing it, i've had to be a heck of alot stronger to actually ask someone to get it to her, whether some were reluctant or some were happy to help like Jess which i can thank Emma for. 

I know this seems long winded and ranting and even creepy that someone i've only met once but fallen in love with and realised i could of had a shot something which i could of been content with, settled down with, had my first kiss and non family or animal cuddle with, have my first sleepover with, have my first proper date with, have my first calendar gift holiday where we both get presents with, have the "meet the parents" meal type event (Even try cassie's amazing roasts one day), have my first holiday with someone i love and not with my family, have amazing roleplay from both mine and her sexual desires with and so much more. All gone,  Slammed like a door so powerful that it would take a mircale to get back to that one chance. 

For now, i just have to hope for the best, hopefully it doesn't come down to doing the hollywood style wedding moment with the i object but for a girl i would go to the ends of the world for if i could, then its possible, i know i went too far and i know i shouldn't of moved on to her when i was still getting over Abbey in my 3rd year of feeling broken by that, i know i've put you in places where its not fair to have gone. I know i was betting my luck on catching up on the world with you without you realising. 

For the past 2 years, i'm sorry, for everything.
I still love you and you will remain in my heart, even if its a small piece thats in a shape of something you love the most, even more than me or tom

Thats all i can say. But on an unrelated note, i will leave this down below:




For now, expect a blogpost up soon, in a few days

A final time of giving in 2013

Well with Christmas Eve only a week away. Time is getting short with the final shop before the festivity begins and i had to get the presents sorted and give them out to people i care about as well as sort my family out. So lets begin...


I woke up, slightly earlier than usual after a nice releasing fap. Then after i got changed, it was nearing 10am, i decided to get the bike out and prepare everything. Eventually after doing that and checking on the kitten, i headed off and started my journey.  It was quite a nice one, although i had some busier traffic on the roads, passing a few construction sites and even having a horse give me evil looks as i tried to pass it near yelverton. I made it in under 2 hours.

View Larger Map

The Bike, parked at Drake's Circus, but looking shitty from the mud along the journey there

Then it was more or less the case of getting what i needed and preparing it for delivery. Now i did make a vlog which starts from this point. This isn't as good as other vlogs but thats the front camera having a REALLY bad framerate, hence the picture jerking, nevertheless, you can see it below:

Then it was mostly looking in various stores. Testing a Dualshock 4 out, telling some people what injustice is, buying phone cases, browsing cheap jeans in primark, which i'm usually ok at and more trolling phone shops, asking about the Sony Xperia C. That was in a ramdom order.

It was rather quick, purchasing what i needed, Fone World was quite pricey, but the staff were much nicer than before, but then it was making my way to Pizza Hut to buy the gift cards. Now it was the usual nice smell with that store, people were eating pizza, a nice bbw served me, although she had to get someone else to set up gift cards, which is very similar to last time. But it was interesting regarding the "instant win" guranteed vouchers, after asking, i got given 2 of them, although the terms did mention it was "only one per billed customer". So i bundled them with each gift card.

After that, it was time to get the other phone case for my mum, now this was important since i wanted to make sure it was a good one and it turned out to be cheaper and just as good looking as an official flip cover for a SIII Mini which she bought for £90 off Roger (The watchman, if your from Tavi, you might know of him). She loves it. But that cost me £9.99.

Then it was more walking around, checking computerbase, the Arena, Nerdz, Wants Xtra, Sony Store and then back to vlog bits of the christmas market, which i wish i could of filmed more of, but knowing people, they get fussy with a camera. But afterwards was the visit into Winter wonderland was well worth it and needed. I found decent Christmas bags for £1 each and a nice pack of cute kitten based Christmas cards for also £1. After buying that and popping into ann summers to buy some body paint, which there was some girls and one said to her mate "that taste's really good" and i went to the till with one, then went back and bought 2. The girl at the till said hun to me a few times, that felt nice. After, it was time to get everything organised. I found some space in the seating by starbucks in Drake's Circus.

Pretty much what the presents i've bought and/or had to deliver. 

So basically, it was about 30 minutes of preparing the presents. To make it simple, i'll bullet point what was for who. The Chromecasts were from HD-Direct, i only saved £6.30 from buying 3 of them, £39.95 each.

Emma:

  • £20 Pizza Hut Giftcard
Jess:
  • Google Chromecast 
  • £20 Pizza Hut Gift Card
Charley:
  • Google Chromecast
  • Ann Summer's Chocolate Body paint (£5.00)
Bronti: 
  • Google Chomecast
  • Ann Summer's Chocolate Body Paint (£5.00)
Dad:
  • £20 B&Q voucher
Mum:
  • £20 Primark Gift Card
  • Samsung Galaxy SIII Mini Flip cover case (£9.99)
Sister:
  • iPhone 5 Flowery flip cover case (£12.99)

Then it was nearing 2pm. I decided to deliver to Bronti first off. So i made my way to her work, through Primark, Walking through Brentonside, and i got to hers, i was waiting at the bar, she then saw me and served me, i gave her the bag, she was a bit taken back "Are you sure", i said "its fine, its the least i could do", so she taken it and said thanks, she was a bit uneasy, i might of been a bit blunt and walked out. 

It was then onto Charley's work, a slightly longer time, but i got to her's. Then i gave the back to two not too bad looking girls, i said if they could and they happily said ok, i might of been worried if they knew which one and i think they knew, they giggled and said "we love her" or something very related. Afterwhich i left and decided to pop in the casino, well i needed to take the toilet and also play a round of blackjack. While peeing and tweeting, i had to deal with a Chinese guy shouting on the phone. Then i betted £3 on blackjack and i lost by one number lower than the dealer. 

Then it was time to make the walk to finish emma's present. So i got into House of fraser and saw maisie, she was slightly annoyed from the looks but once we started talking, she was in a better mood. She explained some options she liked, which to be honest makeup wasn't my thing, she recommend something and i did mention she like red lipstick, she did say "good thinking for picking up on that Mattie". Then we talked about the past and also she was still shocked on the present i gave Emma for valentines day last year. But after that, we sorted everything out, i paid £32 for the lipsitck pack, gave her the card to give her and then i left. I felt warm and fuzzy and also relived i talked to her about it, maybe its to clear things up but i'm not sure. 

After that, i walked about some more, browse Maplins for a while then i started heading back home. The Journey wasn't too bad, i think i left the bike seat up too high, it was embarrasing to climb up onto it. But once i got to Mcdonalds, it was really convienent that just as i was about to park my bike, Jess was walking out, with one of those inspector coasts and her smile was more my type, but i said hi then we asked how each other was, then i quickly gave her the bag, she was about to catch the bus. So i carried on, it was straining towards the end, but i made it before 5:30 :).

Then i got home, it was a nice evening, actually it turned out that just aftet i edited the vlog, my desktop went haywire and i've now lost my OSX hard drive, well it won't boot anymore. Files i can recover, but its looking like a re-install. WHY CAN'T IATKOS M BE OUT YET :(.

But back onto my life, times are going to be busy the next two weeks, its turning out to be more working, possibly a vlog, defiantly a blogpost about Friday night when a friend (who dating a jerk, imagine a girl being told when she can cuddle her own boyfriend, that type of jerk) is having some drinks at the Bank at 7 i think, i'll try to go along. Also Bronti feels really bad about the chromecast so i might be having that back :(, Also i'll try to get a review of the Year blogpost and vlog done. But for now, enjoy your night :). Also this marks the completion of the New Years Resolution to cycle to Plymouth and back at least once a month this year, so congrats to me for that :).

See you in the next blogpost

From an exam to a tablet to buying an Early Valentines

Well its been just over a month since i've post. And to be fair, in my life, not much has happened in my life except maybe two things.

I'll explain them for you now.

Tuesday 5th Feburary 

So this a day when i planned to get one of my New Years Resolutions sorted. Which was "To earn a Microsoft Qualification". So i booked the exam for it two saturdays before, paid Prometric and got a conformation for dates. Now the exam is for "Windows operating system fundamentals" which is basically an exam for learning basics in various parts of Windows 7, from upgrading to the OS, to using the right program to encrypt files. With that i leave you with what happened in the vlog:



After the exam, i went to Pizza Hut which was a 15 minute cycle from where the exam center was. That was tasty and while noming on a starter set to eat since i couldn't have the unlimited pizza or pasta since it had cheese in it. That cost me £6.95 which is below:
A Starter set which included chicken bites, potato wedges, non cheese garlic bread and BBQ and Mayo dips.


You see me eat it while explaining things i've done and current topics like the Gay marriage proposal, and how it would actually benefit the UK. Well done for the law being passed though, hours later after i recorded that. The funny bit was, i cycled in a BLIZZARD, yep, the snow had now touched my skin and did exist this year. Then after the exam it cleared up and was quite nice weather, and i did have to clean my bike when i got home. Also while cycling to and from Plymouth, the trail after Magpie Viaduct was obstructed. But i'm not surprised with all this recent wind and rain the UK has been having, or mainly Devon.

Thursday 7th Febuary and onward: The GoTab life

So i've also been intrested in buying myself an andorid tablet, now as you know. Andorid tablets are budget (or more expensive) versions of iPad. Now i've wanted to buy one which is under £100 and has a good resolution and it cost me £60 from Misco  . This is a GoTab GBT740RS. Now this tablet i will do a blogpost to review it but it is a pretty good Andorid 4.0.3 tablet. 
OK trying to root it was pretty difficult but to sum up. I accidentaly nearly bricked (which i fixed) the tablet and couldn't turn it off. Now after draining the tablet out of its battery life, it has fixed that problem, as least as of 11/02/13. But i would get one while you can and hope its a good one, my work ordered one, from misco and turns out the touchscreen was faulty, reminds me i better remind my boss about that needing to be returned. 
The GoTab GBT740RS from Misco that arrived. £60 + 3.99 for delivery :)

Tuesday 12th Febuary - Pancake Day/Getting the girl i love's valentines present

Now with 2 intresting events in one week. It was time to sort it out and get the girl i love's Valentines present and deliver it to her. Now as some of you might very well know, last year i outdid myself with the amazing story of delivering her £250 in cash. If you want to read on the story regarding that, click HERE.
But this time it gets slightly different, with Emma now on holiday this week, it was quite a worry wondering if it was worth getting her something. 

There was an original plan 3 weeks ago to get some custom cupcakes ordered in with icing that said romantic things like "You are an angel", "I miss you so much" and "I love you". However that plan failed when i asked for a quote of that and the person i asked couldn't get them for today. Bit of a shame, but i do plan to use "Manda Moore's Cakes" to order some at somepoint this year, don't fret. 

But after waking up at 9:40 after dreaming about me and emma together, i decided to prep up and get cycling to Plymouth. Leaving Tavi at 10:40 and arriving at 12:35 just below Drake's Circus. On the way though, i bought the present, which is actually a repeat of her 21st birthday except half value. But it still looks the same old design which is really good:
The pizza hut giftcard i bought as the valentines gift.
Now after browsing various shops and also buying a new pair of jeans from Primark. Now these were redued "twisted" jeans from a company called "Denim Co" and they are a 32" waist and length of 30" and they orginally cost £15 but they were reduced to £7, i've tried them on and they fit quite nicely.
The pair of jeans i bought from primark for £7
 Also i enjoyed a quick taster of Disney Epic Mickey 2. Now that game i wanted to try out, the controls are good but camera is really tricky to control. But it was quite good seeing Fantasia references and yet again, those mischievous brooms chucking water all over the place but seeing Yen Sid's lab was quite cool. 

Brushing on....

Now i bought the card from Clinton Cards, it was a cute one related to this range of cards they offer. That cost £3.00. Afterwards i went to Tesco Metro which then i wrote out the card on the lottery table, noone noticed luckily. But after that it was near 1:30 and Emma's kind hearted friend was supposed to be in town and eventually we met up by the sundial and i handed it to her then wished her luck on her boob job tomorrow :). 
After that i decided to walk around then i ordered some Mcdonalds. A nice large big mac along with a big sprite and fried. This cost me £4.65 which is quite nice. Also i found there theres a 9.99 offer which looks sooo good and i will buy that often if i did get the chance to be with a girl. But for now, admire this pic of the food :):
The tasty mcdonalds i had earlier :)



After that i decided to cycle home and my legs were tired but i made it back home  in 2 hours or so. Since today was pancake day, i'll top this post off with the 3 pancakes i had after tea tonight :)
The first pancake is Chocolate Spread and Brown Sauce

The second pancake is chocolate spread with maple syrup

The final pancake is chocolate spread and lemon juice :)

Well next month is not going to be as busy but hopefully things might end up amazing for me but its unpredictable but we can hope for the best.

See you in the next blog post or vlog

The final effort for love before the end is near...

So its been over a month and time is nearing to a close. Comet has been edged off the market, Poor kids and teachers lives innocently taken from them by a psychotic madman (My condolences goes out to everyone involved in that shooting). Christmas only a WEEK today (feels quick doesn't it). But with all this in mind. sometimes you have to make a final effort to get a chance with a beautiful girl.....ok 6 girls maybe.

So this story of a day  which has been an amazing day. Here is a quick summary of what happened :)

I woke up at 10am and started to get ready to go to Plymouth. Since for a last effort and since its the sprit of Christmas and all, i decided to get some presents and deliver them to some girls who i've liked for a while and of course Emma since i still love her. After leaving at 10:45. i cycled the usual route to Plymouth, getting to clearbrook then instead of turning left to go down to the trail, i decided to turn left and use the main road.


The reason for this. Well actually its the 2nd time i've done this but its much quicker and also i had to buy and deliver a present on the route there. So i got to the Pizza Hut in Crownhill to buy the first present while delivering a birthday present to a good friend of someone that works there :). The awkward moment with this was the hint i wrote the card just outside which the girl the presant was for came out and asked if i needed anything haha.


After delivering the Present and buying a giftcard to a girl i liked but recently lost the chance with. Although she is a pretty popular girl and it took 3 weeks and another guy started dating her >.<. I started cycling into town and it was quite a nice downhill ride. Navigating the mazes of subway tunnels around crownhill and then cycling a different route signposted at a junction before morrisons on outland road. I got into town and then cleaned myself up then got started on what i needed to get.


Stage 1 - The Nandos Demand


So this was the start. After going into stormfront to update the spreadsheet of what i was getting which was on skydrive. I decided to get the main expenses of the plan. So i walk in there, there's a queue of a couple of people. one was a couple and they were pretty intermate and actually quite cute. So when it was my turn. i got my phone out and loaded skydrive and the file up on it. (its a shame that office docs app bundled with various andorid roms does NOT let you edit the files :@). I then asked if they had giftcards, the staff got her manager to get some for me. I said how many and shows her the spreadsheet to help her understand. Then she loaded the credit i asked for one each card and i only paid the TOTAL amount which came to £110. So i think i did the right thing, as much as nandos is overrated, expensive posh food. If girls like it, you can't go against it. But much better service when i last went in there. Afterwards, here was all the cards. shown together. 
This was all 4 giftcards. quite hard to spot the difference hahaha :)


Stage 2 - The prep for making it look good...kind of

With all the majority of the presents bought, and finding a ultra cute xmas card for £0.69 each. i bought 5 of those from Clintons cards, then went and sat on a bench and took about 30 minutes wrapping them up. Now this was the time consuming part. Having to write the cards out with putting a heartfelt message related to my feelings for the girl, insert the giftcards into them and pack them up. 
This was before the packing and writing the cards out. To make it all look the same or know it was from me

Finally packed and written out, to the people mentioned. Some you might know, some you might not. But i decided to make a shot of it. Also with the one in the green note. That was the most awkward one to do, due to the fact of  the person i'm trusting to deliver it to Sophie, (Her best mat Ashleigh, who looks beautiful as Soph) probably hates me so i needed to explain to her

Stage 3 - The delivery

Now this was not as tricky as i thought it would be. But first off i went to wilkos to deliver the MOST important card. As luck would have it, one of her mates whom i'm also good mates with, Bianca was in and was serving this asian lady with regards to makeup or perfume, i can't remember. So waiting by the shelf out of her view, i waited until she was done then tapped her on the back and asked her to deliver it. From 8pm i found out Emma had got it, which is a sigh of releif, although being told she doesn't deserve it is slightly heartbreaking. 

Anyways, the next one. Now this was a local...whats its called...ah yes...Fancy dress store which surprisingly enough the next girl to deliver for was working. She was seriving a customer for about 15 minutes and still had a amazing accent. Patiently i waited and then once she had finished, i said hi, gave her the card and said "happy christmas", then left. maybe i should of stayed a bit longer but i did get the vibe she didn't know who i was. 

The thrid one was at JD Sports, now to be honest i felt abit awkward just asking the till assistant to pass the card on to the next girl i was delivering too. So i browsed around and found a nice, cheap T-shirt for £7.00 and decided to purchase that for my dad as a presant, after a short queue, i was served and she was helpful and got to presents sorted (one for dad, one for the girl). Then that was that.


Now for the "fun" bit

So i was supposed to meet up with two girls at a local cafe in exeter street. I ran from JD to the cafe, with the help of Google maps, i might add to go out on a meal with them. Now instead, i did get to the cafe 15 minutes later, but as it turns out one of the girls was running late too. So after chatting for an hour and a half or so about various things with Muneetha. IT, Girls, news and also how Social media works was just part of them. The other girl and two mates of ours arrived. And here is where the fun begins, well to Sum up. I fed the other girl called Eloise, some of her birthday cake. Now this was an incredible expirence for me, maybe she was confused on what to do but enjoy the clip one of my mates recorded of it. WARNING VERY NSFW/OBJECTIONAL FEEDER RELATED MATERIAL.

Then around 4:20 i left for home, ran back to my bike in drake circus and then started to cycle back. Although on the way, i dropped the last remaning cards off to the places they needed to go. An estate agents in Mutley Plain for one and Crownhill Mcdonalds for the other, but me being me, i bought two dips from there as a little fun. Then a nice race in the dark to cycle back, I got home about 6:50 and then had a nice one of my usual meals for tea. With that exta Chilli Sauce i bought from Mcdonalds.

well my late tea after my awesome day. chicken tika, bacon, h... on Twitpic

Then that was about it. A summary of what happened today. I'll try to blog more often, but with work being busy and of course Christmas a week away, times will be hard. But i'll do a summary of the year nearer the time.

Enjoy your week and have a Very nice and Amazing Christmas from me. Also I've had a request from a fan's girlfriend to do a shoutout, i'll include that in the Christmas onesie video. If you want in on that, Tweet me, FB me or send an e-mail to omracer9 @  googlemail.com with the subject Xmas shoutout and i'll add it in. Also that reminds me, i have to finish 3 more lots of shoutouts at some point. I'll get that done soon


Kind Regards
