Pete’s Totally Pointless Blog.

Pandora seriously is the best thing since sliced bread. It’s an online radio network, where you create your own radio station based on the music you want to hear. You can even email your stations to your friends. And the best thing is, it’s totally free! Check it out here.

Next week is Pudsey week at school. It’s the week where a giant yellow bear with an eyepatch robs you of your money just before Christmas so you can’t afford to buy any presents. But it’s a good time and it all goes to charity, so that’s fun. Last year I was on TV because of him.

My first exams are next Tuesday. And I have 2. One after the other, with a 10 minute break in between. Geography then French. Ewwwwww….

After that, I have no exams up until the 28th. Once I get my exam timetable I’ll post it, but for now that’s the only 2 exams that I know the times of. Oh yeah and I have another french exam on the 25th. And another on the 12th of December. And another on the 13th. Yay for exams. The good thing is, I aced my last french test (in my eyes anyway) and if you fail the prelim then the last test is what you fall back on. Both the prelim and the last test are used, and the higher of both marks are used. The good thing is, I don’t even have to show up for these exams and I’ll get Credit grades. I love the Scottish education system.

That’s all from me, check back later for my report on the best way to eat noodle salad.

Three dots as a title. Original eh?

Anyway, we didn’t get into Stars In Their Eyes. Which is a half good, half bad thing. It’s good because it means we can relax. It’s bad….well that bit should be self explanatory.

Someone, somehow managed to install MyWebSearch Toolbar on Firefox while I was at school today. I don’t know how they managed it because I’m the only person in my family that uses Firefox. I sorted it out though, I deleted all the files etc.

Whenever I can be bothered, I shall go down to the bank, put some money in, and buy some domains, some hosting, and a few bottles of irn-bru.

…I still hate Windows. Today I found out that if I install Vista then I will have to manually reinstall XP and rewrite my BIOS. By manually install XP I mean that instead of the install CD putting all the files in the write place, it just dumps them all in one folder and lets me find the right places for all of them, most likely via the command line as I can’t see any other way on how that’s done. o_O

But I’ll install it anyway and try it out. It should be sometime next week that I get it, so I’ll let you all know how that goes. Apparently it’s not too bad, especially compared to previous versions of Windows.

That’s all from me, more another day.

It’s been 2 months tonight since my last blog post. I totally forgot about it!

I finished Nineteen Eighty-Four today. So I’m fairly happy about that.

As for the web designing, I’m taking it seriously now, and it’s now known as Shadow Eternity web & graphic design. I’ve been getting alot of compliments about it from alot of people, and not biased comments, I mean compliments from people I’ve never met before. Which is really nice and makes me confident about it. I’ll be purchasing the Medium Hosting Plan fromA Small Orange soon, which will give me the space and bandwidth I need at fantastic prices.

In other news, it’s 26 days until my exams, so teachers are really piling the pressure on everyone to study and get good grades.

My band auditioned for Stars In Their Eyes today, a charity concert that my school runs to aid Children In Need. We done really well, so we should get in. If we do, it means we play 3 times, once at night and twice the next day, infront of a total of about 2000+ people with an age range from 12-70+. We find out tomorrow if we’re in. I’ll let you all know. Not that any of you care. For those of you who didn’t know, my bands website is www.independentfrequency.tk ; and yes, I’m the crappy web designer that made it. It’s in need of a really big update. I’ll get around to that sometime soon.

Anyway, in other news, I hope to make this blog a bit more popular, and maybe post more often.

w00t. <== man those zero’s suck.

So yeah, third period today. Biology. Some sixth year girl comes in and says, “Who’s interested in extreme dodgeball? You get to hurt people.”
Me being me, jumped at the opportunity. So now I get to play extreme dodgeball. Which is nice. Anyway, I raised my hand and she wrote my name down. Which I thought was fairly creepy considering I had never met the girl before in my life and I certainly didn’t tell her my name. Which is weird.

In other news, Dreamweaver MX 2004 shot itself today. I had something like 15-20 days left in my trial, but when I opened it up, it said “Your trial period has ended.”

….am ragin.

And finally, I got my french results:

For my writing test: 2+
For my speaking test: 1

I think the only reason I got a 1 in my speaking test is because I said, “Je suis un petit pomme de terre! Viva la France!” at the end of the test, which seemed to amuse my teacher and bump up my grade. Which is nice. It’s the first time I have gotten a 1 for French, so I’m fairly happy about that.

P.S. I checked out George Orwell’s “Nineteen Eighty-Four” from the school library today, so I shall start reading that tonight, and I should probably be finished it by Sunday night/Monday.
