A day in the new life

This one was a fun day, I've wanted to try to get a day in the life done and now I get to start it. This was somewhat how my past 2 weeks have been with more time to myself than usual. The vlog is below,


The Fresh Morning

Let's be honest, this was actually starting after getting to sleep at 3am, but Westworld is a unique show and was enticing as I built a PC.

Intel Pentium G4400
Asus h110m-k
Kingston 2133mhz 4GB DDR4
palit 120gb ssd
500w PSU
CiT Templar Case
windows 10
Office home and student 2016

Westworld and PC Building at 2am
Waking up 

But I got up and Rosie was happy to see me, not, so I went to feed the fish, Glass was dead on battery so I had to charge it. Then it was a getting change bit, sure, it was a bit of a rush but that was just to get out #dogwalkingwithomracer. But a raspberry and pineapple smoothie could NOT go amiss.

Then it was time to walk that dog, so she was eager as always, we walked and we were close to going to the other field but we decided to go to the normal one, our lovely friend Tonka was already sniffing around, but then it was the ball that rosie was wanting. So we played ball for about 15 minutes, with Tonka wandering and peeing.

the field as usual

Tonka and Rosie


Eventually it was 8am and I was walking back home, I saw a neighbour on the way and walked up the road with him, Rosie did now that one BIT. Show she decided to bite my foot and that meant it was time to get her tile Ringing, yes i have now put tile on her since she ran off when walking her in the field late one night. that sound does help her response to me quite nicely. Then it was time to get home and feed her, with unlocking the door, ending the walk and waiting for glass to charge back up to do more FPS view, but nah. So it was time to feed the dog, this was heaving up a bag of her food. Once that was done, time to clean up and finished getting changed before getting the PC and my rucksack ready to run down to work with.

The new shoes i bought for £4.00


Running down was not too bad, the box is still a bulky product so its a way to pick it up without damaging the box. But after 12 minutes, I finally got there which my hands were a little bit tired as you go.


The trading day


So I got in, since my spot was different, I had to re-cover the 2 tables and that was a bit of a fun with someone else helping me last minutes, the neighbours were pretty friendly, since one of them i chat to a bit with helping him out back in the old job. But before that was to catch up with my friend and that went well to see what was going on. Then I unpacked and it was a nice way to start the day.

The stall


Then it was a case of typing this up, getting some phone calls done and also redesigning a logo since a few customers mentioned it to me, this was with a project i'm not telling about (not gaming related), wanted to have my logo for advertisements for a collab we are doing. That ended up quite nice and more to the point of what I thought it out to be. The customer picked up the PC and paid which was nice too.


Then it is time to wait and more chatting with customers, it was heading into the afternoon and 3 hours left, things were queit, until about 3ish and another bit of worked booked and my grndad popped in to say hi and help him out with Youtube on the phone and also to tell me a delivery has arrived. Thats going to be so fun to get booked in, might not feature that but its still exciting.

But it eventually was getting to 4pm which is the last 30 minutes until I get to packup, thi will be fun...

The pack up and evening visit


So, its 4:30, a friend visits and we catch up, which then in turn, I pack everything up and head off to the home visit, I was meant to do. Standing on chairs to reach the plug is scary af for some reason, but thats my genetics from my dad's fear of heights i'm guessing.

It took 2 hours due to things going down at the wrong moment but then it was time to head off home, Running and getting breathless up the hills, which the route I had had 2 steep ones at the beginning. But eventually I got home by 6:55 and Rosie sort of greeted me, along with 2 big boxes on the kitchen table. This was interesting, since i ordered this yesterday. But alas, it was time to actually catch up with the internet while taking a dump, then it was time to walk Rosie again for her evening walk.

The Chours to get done

So, we finally get to Walk rosie again, with her ready on the lead, She walked and we played some more ball, the weather was good too.

Reqady to walk Rosie Again, 
This time, the field was quiet and the weather was picking up nicely, but it was soon nearing the dusk and just as we walked home, we were greeted by a dog nearby and he said hello to me and rosie was playful yet vocal. Then it was time to relax and cook food after feeding her again. But then it was time to weigh myself since I do this every few days, which its interesting where one weight was 188.4 then after another weigh in, it was 186.4. Then I got into my dressing gown...

After, I decided to cook a Quorn chickpea curry with some extras like noodles and sauces. It actually turned out really nice. Also I decided to carry on with the last 2 episodes of westworld before readying myself to get the vlog up, which took me on and off the entire day.

And that was it, now we have got one video left to film before I really Cain the last 2 parts of Crash and then its soon to be GOOSE FAIR.

A day off in the life of omracer

So, this is another march of another year which feels like a year i've already done with the same feelings repeating themselves. But this is technically a requested post, now i've done a day in the life vlog before, but with glass in my life, a better one could of been made, and i think it has.

Enjoy the vlog down below:


A morning of preperation and pet chaos


Well, its been strange since i'm always waking up around 7-7:30 and recently i've even been in a feeling that i've destressed twice in a morning (no joke, i fapped twice in a morning twice this past week) and this day was no exception, but i finally got up after the 2nd fap and the dog was on my bed, so i had to roll out. I also texted lauren to see if she was free, but she had family so maybe it wasn't going be a chance to catch up, maybe more so vent how i feel but i'll leave that for another time. 
The dog on my bed just as i was waking up
So, i got up and then greeted the cat, but it ended up the cat and dog fighting as they usually do, so i was brushing teeth and cleaning my face partly over with some nivia cream, i finished off and was time to check e-mails and facebook, which my boss asked me about something related to scanning but that was sorted then it was time to get the bike out and then it was time to put both Rosie and Aries in their cages and i cycled off. This was not too bad a journey, it was cold but then got warmer and one case of it spitting with rain but that was a very short amount of time, enjoy pics of the way there.
Passing and on to the trail

Getting to Clearbrook

Walking and pondering in a average crowded city. 

Well, getting in was nice and then i wandered up to go to a toilet and then it was off to primark. The toilets were clean as usual. But then it was from the top floor to the bottom and into there. As i was passing, i saw lauren, she didn't see me i think but we saw each other later. But getting into primark was good as well as picking up 2 pairs of jeans for £14, slim W34 L32, original price was £15 but now it was £14 for 2, i was happy. 
The jeans before purchasing 

Then i wandered around, first up was carphone warehouse, sure there was the hipstreet 7" and i saw emily and she looked her beautiful self, the same figure i've lusted for and a darker shade of hair too. Next up was HMV and not much new games and i saw breaking bad boxsets. After that, it was to GAME and i saw Hotline Miami 2 for £10.99 for the download code, which was really tempting but i said no.


Exploring the town like the other Game, a phone shop which didn't know what my phone was, a rip off pay weekly shop which had a 23" 3D PC monitor for £104 which was used and i almost regretted the HD monitor i bought last week. 
Various cash converter shops which has some 2nd hand goods, a decent-ish graphics card for £60 but that was not me even being sure what model it was. Also an elgato for £80 (not the hd60). There was also a British red cross rep who greeted me, one of the girls looked like liv a bit which i thought it was her, but nope i was too young and carried on. Poundland was also boring.

It was getting near the bottom and i explored PC shops, some good deals but then it was some games and i was tempted for Theme Park for £1 but then i can get it on PC which its better on. But sealed copies for FFVII going for £80, fuck me. I also passed Flavour Vapour to check if eloise was in, no luck either. 

The oriental store was nice, some options to consider, especially i've been into noodles, then i had a daydream of an oriental night in with charley at her old flat, i seriously had a vision of it but then i walked out of the store into the sony centre, it disappeared, but my mind wasn't all with it today anyway. There was also someone asking about bluetooth headphones, i almost corrected this girl and guy in there. 

As i walked up back to the mall, i popped in the sweet shop and thought to myself that if i was dating, i would be buying so much food in here, from nerds, twinkies and other US junk for nights in. Another daydream appeared, this felt blurry. I carried on up to maplins, i thought i saw Jasmine in specsavers, even though she is now hitched up so it would end up no point.

Then it was coming up to the mall and i saw lauren while she was having lunch at oggy oggy, we waved so thats probably the nicest thing that happened so far today, then some depressing much came on as as i walked up, i looked back with a tear in my eye. 

I walked into the apple store, went on a mac and looked at FCP X exams and update the details on my professional registry details for the apple certification. That was quick then it was looking at £29.95 for a £32 flash drive, ok it was USB 3.0 but thats a fucking rip. 

Walking out of there then another toilet break and i was going to relax but i walked to the casino instead, which was meh and there was this incredible looking girl outside, she had dark brown hair, nice smile, a denim jacket that was making her look like it was going to pop and she has a really amazing figure in her leggings, i was going to approach but i know it was going to be a stupid idea.

The gambling, well it was long, i mean i had 5 stands, won 3 lost 3 and eventually i lost it all, i only bet £6 but the plan was to win £6 then i would buy Hotline Miami 2. That plan failed but Hollie, the dealer, was a nice accent to her and she felt welcoming. 

Reflection on the peaceful side of an ocean city

I wondered up to the hoe, passing places, the girl was still waiting outside and i was about to approach until she slowly walked and her boyfriend was there, at least that was the jist of what i saw, then i walked up, they were behind me, but yes i was jealous of him. Eventually i got to the hoe and it was calm and the wind was not as strong as i was used to. I chilled for 10 minutes, before making my way to the barbican, some guy was cleaning out the bins and there was kids doing sk8boarding things.

The barbican was busier than i thought, but i was going to have a cap n jaspers (but eating food by myself not at home or work is a embarrassing feeling which i've tried to rid myself of the past 3 years) and decided against it, even though the food is great value, it reminded me of alannah a bit but shes back with exes too (months ago) so *sigh*. 

As i was around that area, i noticed a UKIP councillor strolling around, he passed me and just ignored me but was talking to fishermen that just arrived from a trip, resting my legs around her was nice and the view was like the one i saw when i was in plymouth for one evening last year. 
The view of the barbican from where i sat
Exploring a chocolate shop and a mix of a mini market was nice, but then i reminded myself of weddings when i was in there and felt sad then walked out, of course bronti's work was advertising st patricks day, as a natural pub would do. I also noticed that really nice florists i bought from are closing down or at least the store is, thats a shame :(

Then i decided to walk back into town around 3:15. I popped into Thomas Cook nearby but didn't really have the guts to admit or ask for a holiday for myself only (a alone trip, which some places don't accept), i was asked they could help and i just said i was looking, unsure and holding glass, i was still looking and then browsed one of the club 18-30 ibiza brochures and looked, oh look hinting at 3 people per holiday/room, i can't do that. Then i left and walked up & rested on the food court of drake's circus, with working out how much ££ i had, which then i could work out how much i had spent so far, which was actually £20 exactly, £14 for the jeans and £6 for blackjack. 

The food court

Then i walked down to another IT shop, browsed around, walked out and set up the GPS since it was time for me to leave, it was being fixed really quickly and i was out of Plymouth by 4. 

Heading back to relaxing reality

The bike ride was pretty good, sure some stops with lights and also cars and lorries right behind and passing me, but i did good, my legs were killing it by the time i got near home, which i managed to survive and all. 
Passing KFC and a good friend i like's former work

Getting home

Then it was time for me to get home and change and relax, i had made it, the bike was away, the dog was howling to be let out of her cage, i had a refreshing hot shower before hand, so i was that much in pain. Then it was just relaxing and a night of cooking meals and typing up was the plan. 


Well that concludes this day, more blogposts planned, and some of those will make you think or even shock you
