New Year, New Blog - Day 10

Day 10 started with me waking up 20 minutes late as I forgot to set my alarm last night. The day that followed was just a comedy of errors. Work started with a year 11 English lesson but most of them were in a GCSE exam so that lesson was spend going over coursework that should have been finished by now. Next was maths but that was boring. At lunch I did something that I've never done before. I took a phonecall in the staff room. It did result in me going for a walk to pass a message on. 

After work I did a kettlebell workout with some colleagues. It involved 10 chin ups, 21 swings with the kettlebell and 15 push up. I just had to keep repeating this for 10 minutes. It was very very tough. After this I did some ski sits and a few other leg workouts. I'm going to be aching tomorrow.

When I got home I finished the end of Reservoir Dogs. I have to say I'm a little bit disappointed by the ending. It wasn't how I expected and I now I finished the film, I don't think I like it. 

I bought a new TV stand today from Sainsburys well Dad did but I paid for it, and he discovered one of the glass bases was shattered so we took it back and exchanged it for another one. I started to put that one together and found that some parts were missing. So dad drove all the was across Chelmsford to Sainsburys to ask someone on customer services for some replacement parts. Now its all set up and looks amazing.

While writing this I have been watching a program called Rogue Baboon: An Inside Nature's Giants Special. Its about a huge male baboon in South Africa. Its really interesting. 

Thats pretty much all for today.

Until tomorrow

New Year, New Blog - Day 6

Day 6 was pretty darn good.  Its Friday and the day went quick which means ITS THE WEEKEND!!

It was Alicia's birthday today and I cant believe I forgot to get our English class to sing happy birthday! She might not have talked to me again if I had remembered. I did try to wake her up with text messages but that also failed.
I was quite naughty at break because I was so hungry that I had cheese on toast and a bacon and egg roll. It was delicious and I didnt feel bad for eating it. I had my favourite lesson of the week period 4 and there was a new teacher who seems pretty cool and I think will get the best out of that class in time.

After work had finished, I did a 15 minute, very high intensity workout. It was very very tough but I know its doing good. Just need to do it more that once a week. It consisted of a 500m row, 21 swings with a kettle bell and then 15 press ups, repeated 5 times. OUCH! (You'll be impressed Sam)

When I got home from work I sat down at my laptop and just went on facebook and listened to music. The new TV didnt go on and it was really nice to just relax completly.

Tonight my TV has still been off but I've watched Auf Wiedersehen Pet with mum and dad in the front room and it was very funny. Thats one of my top 10 TV series.

If the layout of the blog keeps changing over the next few weeks, don't be alarmed, I'm just trying to get the balance of colours or the text and background right and find the right design. It will be sorted soon. I managed to put a visiter counter on last night and it read 224. When I went on this evening about 8.00pm it read 243, and then later this evening it read 252! I am truely amazed. Thank you everyone for reading. Please feel free to comment.

I think in tomorrows blog I will talk about my musical tastes and what I like to listen too and when.

Until then

Jim
