Okay, so here it is, an actual, proper, real post for the first time in about three months. I can only apologise. I really don’t know why I haven’t been posting. Maybe I haven’t really had anything to post about (but then again, do I ever?), or perhaps I just forgot because I was too busy with other things? Well, that’s bullshit. All I’ve been doing is working, going to college, playing video games and occasionally going out drinking with friends/workmates. As per always.

My college course is nearing to a close. I believe June the fifth is my last day. Hopefully I’ll be okay. There’s been a few things I’ve been struggling with for the past few weeks, but I haven’t let them get on top of me, so I should be fine. Hopefully. And that said, I’m not sure as to what I’m wanting to do when I’m done with the course. I seem to be swaying towards just taking a year off to work and get some money, perhaps applying to university the year after. It’s also the option I’m most comfortable with, since I don’t seem to be quite ready to leave my hometown yet.

Work at the Co-Op is going great. Since I’ve now been there for about five months, I’ve made a handful of really good friends, who I now seem to be going out on the piss with on a semi-regular basis (I’m even going out tomorrow night to celebrate one’s birthday, and did the same thing last Friday). So things are nice. We even got our new uniforms to replace the horrible, early-90s style ones we had. I don’t feel like quite so much of a twat now when I wear it.

I’m also trying to get a new layout for the site done as well, since we’ve had this since the middle of November. I’ve got one that’s just about there. It just seems to be missing… something. Hopefully I’ll be completely happy with it soon, and I’ll be able to get it up. This one will also have a colour changer.

Anyway, that’s me for now. I’ll try my best to keep new posts appearing frequently.

I’m sorry, I’m so sorry, I’m so really really sorry. Please forgive me, please don’t leave me, I can change, you’ll see! I’ll be a new man, I promise!

‘kay, but srsly, I’ll get it sorted.

I again apologise for the fact I barely blogged in the last month (over three weeks since my last real post), but I guess I’m currently going through one of those drought periods of blogging that have plagued me in the past. It’s usually at this point I end up completely forgetting about my blog and shutting it down. But I’m determined not to do that.

Anyway, on to what I want to talk about: I’m a fairly regular user of Bebo (the social networking system, for those not aware), although not as much as I once was, for reasons I shall explain.

The “remember me” option when you log in to Bebo only last for two weeks, and when I went over to the site after work today, I had to log in. Upon doing so, I see this:

Argh. This is one of the many reasons why Bebo has turned to complete shit. First off, it was the themes, and the ability for members to create their own. This leads to most people’s pages turning into something reminiscent of the average MySpace page: my eyes being raped. But, I found a decent theme that was easy on the eyes, add did most of my (good) friends, so it was too much trouble. Then the applications came. So, now, once your eyes are being fucked by horrible design and colour combinations, you get the added enjoyment of having 200-foot long pages filed to the brim with “super-comments”, “countdown to my birthday”, “what kind of kisser are you?”, “which celebrity are you most likely to butt-fuck”, etc, etc. Argh.

But, I still stuck with it, since the majority of my friends have Bebo and not Facebook (mostly for the lack of themes or something similar). But not, this is getting ridiculous. The spam is no longer tolerable. Sure, at first it was a little funny, in a weird kind of way, getting a friend request from a “porn model”, or a private message from someone who thinks I’m “cute and wud lyk to get to kno me heres my msn addy kthxbi”. But now, I’m getting a good few of these friend requests a week, and a private message at least once a day. I’m just about ready to ditch Bebo completely.

Anyway, that’s all from me for now. I’ll try and write a decent post sometime when I’m not working my ass off or two busy playing with my friends on Xbox Live,
