Good afternoon Yellow! I'm just checking in on my favorite Aquila Squadron ;) . It's been a bit slow around here latley *watches tumbleweed rool by*. Obviously school has started again and people aren't around as much. I haven't been around much either for the same reason. I just want to see how you are all doing in school, life etc. This is not a spam thread, I just want to see how my squadron's copping with the back to school season. :ph43r: |
  Yellow 12, you will never be forgotten. | |

I'm doing alright. This is what I do on weekends. School and Work, or just School. On the weekends wake up, eat, hangout or work, or both, Sunday the same or I just relax or work. |

I have ups and downs ... my girl's family has severe problems with which I can't help. Then I'm working few, as I have a maximum of hours I'm allowed to work and that means I have more free time then working days. Zero will come out n wednesday, at least all sources say so. Before I can buy and play I have to get to the University to give them even MORE paparwork ... hopefully there's nothing missing. University itself starts in October ... |

Well since Vega told me to remember my roots (and i am) i am gonna reply as well
:P College has been quite good.I take part in lessons lately which is unusual about me.I am usually just sitting there quietly but not anymore. :lol: Tuesdays are the worst as i may be out of the house for about 10 hours :o, yep.Last time i went out at 0800 and came back home at 1800 hours.Well a reason for that are the buses mainly as they take about 45 mins to get me to college or back home, but tomorrow i think my momma will be able to give me a lify to and from college. :D yes, i must use everything i can to better the situation... :ph43r: Interestingly i havent played ACZ in like 3 days now..mainly coz i have been busy or couldnt be asked or, like today i have been playing AC5..due to the challenge between Raider and me on Sea Of Chaos! I am awaiting more activies here soon, especially in the Silver Squadron.. :nana4: I cant wait to participate in a tourney or some more training! Thanks all Shack B) |

Well I had 2 exams end august, french and accountancy. I passed French, but failed accountancy again -_- So actually I have to wait till the 26 of september to talk with the school commission. They will either give me permission to try accountancy again or will deny that. If I get permission, I can go to school again. If I don't, then it's game over and then I'll have to find a job. In other words... school started today and actually I am not allowed to follow classes since I am not registered yet. Nontheless I am posting from a pc in school :D Yep I am following classes like anybody else :D Illegally let's say :ph43r: :lol: Don't worry, I got permission of somebody big in school, she said that it depends on the teacher whether he will let you in his class or not, so far, I got no problem :shrug: Anyway by 28 september latest I will know for sure if I may continue or I must stop andthus go to work :unsure: This is my schoolstory |

Well, I have people screaming at me left, right & center. It really is a joke right now, lets say my future career prospects are in the balance right now. I have had to pick up maths &/or physics, I have the least free time by far of any student in sixth form, and I am averaging about 5 hours of sleep per night, not too healthy really. I am to be fair, stressed out, and the bank dicking me about has not made me a happy person, far from it, I will actualy break the co-ordinators face in if my wages dont go in soon....their only 3 weeks overdue with a bigger & better false promise each time I go to see if their has been any progress. The problems etc are unending, on top of the huge amounts of stress from doing shedloads of work each night on different subjects, free time has pretty much died right now. Hopefully though, the winds of life will change & I'll come to some form of resolution soon. Life is not rosy right now here, but like I say; "well it's on then isn't it!?!" B) |

hmm homecoming was ok. It would be better if it wasnt for all the rap that being played in the background. So my date and I left to hang out at my friends house. ALso Dinner was good, and I just cranked up the music since we both loved the same band. (Muse that is). She enjoyed that. Now we have school again. that blows. |

UPDATE people
:D I just went to the commission and I already got permission to continue my studies :thum: My momma is going to be happy, man what a relief. Really a weight that goes off my shoulders, it wasn't amusing not to know what the future was going to rbing you. But now that I may continue my studies, I will. New goals will be set, a path shall be taken. Like Draco said once: The bigger the goal, the bigger the obstacles and on that road, failure is not an option B) Dang lately Lady Luck has been on my side quite a lot :blink: That's good of course, I am not complaining about it ^_^ Aaahh life... you never know what's coming... And now i gotta go, I have classes to take in 5 min (I am at school now) Laterzz peeppzz |

Get aloada this, I'm sorry I was away, but you'll see why here, long read but should be interesting.... Well, to start off, there's school work getting insane, you know when people say "it's not rocket science"?, well, what we did the other day really was, it was a simple 3D graph maths lesson gone mental when the teacher said "right...now you can solve this" & wrote a mass-off equation on the board then told us to work out trajectories etc. Bloody mentalist. That for a week pretty much as well as stupid deadlines, then thursday, I'd been looking forward to that day for a while now, & it was the sponsored walk, with a crucial difference, I wasn't walking, I was running, and it was 13 miles, which is pretty much a half marathon. So, we set off & ran to checkpoint 1, some 6 miles out into the hillside, then we get stopped because the marshall's had ballesd everything up & needed to be in position for health & safety. Now despite my best efforts, when we set off again, my legs were cramping and these Year 11's in lower school were closing my six. I was determined to do a good job, so ran despite the cramps and jumped several stiles on this cross country route, muslces siezing up & almost crippling myself hurdling off the top & legging it some more. It got to a really bad uphill part & I was by myself yomping along, but what a feeling, despite the pain. I got within familiar terriroty after miles of open country side & seeing the town 5 miles or something into the distance. Once I worked out exactly where I was, I just absolubtley went for it & finished...get this...out of 1500 who patricipated walking & a fair few running....2nd. I was well chuffed, apparently I got loads of respect from the lower school for motoring on like a mad man. That night, we went to Leeds for a major session, 150 of us pretty much totalling the venue. Well, I went easy on the drink for once, stuck to my corona & carlsberg and danced every now & then. Well, there was pretty much all kind of "youthful" music under the sun, most of it dance & R&B, although there was the grease soundtrack which was a laugh. Then...Nirvana!, not only did they play smells like teen spirit, but then they put "stay away" & "in bloom" on, me & aload of mates got a mosh pit/fight pit going before long, and suprisingly, the security just watched & said "good on us". :lol: . Then things kicked off, everyone was wasted, but I was semi-sober, and aware that we had a taxi booked for midnight. Someone had got their head split open after falling over & we called an ambulance for them, in the mean time the sober among us made sure his head & feet were elevated. Well, taxi time came & everyone else was messing around, so I had to go hunting for them, we get in & set off & one of them's wasted to the point of no return, lets put it that way. We end up getting out in a different area of town & yomping back to my area. What a night eh?, well there's more... Then yesterday, I met up with my really good mate from Northern Ireland and went rock climbing (maybe last chance I see him, I see him again on tuesday to do a final climb, but he joins the infantry real soon, still, we'll definetly see each other again, esp after he passes selection we are going out for an insane night). Despite the 3 blisters on my feet from the running, and the muscle pain, I was really OK the next day after hardly having anything to drink, and we just yomped to the other side of leeds to go climbing, as we are both quite fit & actualy like doing that kind of thing, gave us alot of time to talk about stuff as well which was cool. We had a really successful day, & the muscle pain actualy wore off after stretching & climbing for so long, it didnt affect my performance at all really. So we got back, messed about and went out to see some mates. Now this is where it gets interesting... We had passed a location at around 21:50, we saw some guys in cars doing some sort of a meet in an ajacent car park over a road (we were in darkened forestry area & wearing dark casual clothes), & my mate just said "contacts, lets get the **** out of here...", which we did. Got back home & half an hour later, another mates on the phone generally chatting, when he says "oh great, there are some chav's outside...I think one of em's got a bat or something but I'd love to see him use it...so anyway..." & at this point he went quiet then said "******* hell!, some ****HEAD'S GOT A CHAINSAW!!!!" :ph43r: "listen..." & holds the phone out of his window & we heard this chainsaw being revved up. Well, the other group appraently made fast and within 2 minutes the police arrived with riot shields etc, I believe 3 or 4 were arrested. That was 30 mins after we passed there, scary no? :blink: , lastnight we pretty much quadruple checked every door & window in the house. But finally, some more sane news, today I finally managed to get......ZERO!!! [size=7]PARTY LIKE IT'S 1999!!!![/size] :lol: So hopefully tomorrow I can begin sorties B) |
