Guys! Today is an exciting day!
I woke up and there was a letter from my college waiting for me to tell me that I am English Student of the Year! I was very surprised (I am certainly not english student of the year, I talk too much and my work is often late but I guess also I ask her what complicated words mean and read Yeats for fun and actually do the work) and also very chuffed because my english class is the biggest class I have so I'm flattered to have been chosen out of all of us.
Then I went into town (smelling sweetly of raspberries) to get some money because the exchange rate is great for us at the moment. And now I have a lot of dollars! They look like toy money, do you guys really pay for things with this stuff? And I bought a carry-on bag for the flights which is blue and pretty. I'm trying not to think about how much money I have spent today.
Now I need to do some more revision. This is probably the end of the excitement.
allison:
Congratulations, that's really impressive!

There's no pain or anything, but it's definitely not working. I have a dumbtoe!

You cut some tendons and nerves and need to see a doctor who probably can't do anything for you.
How funny is it now?
Anyway.
I'm alone at work. Everyone is gone.
To the Efteling. Google it and relish in the horror.
So, I hang out here and watch movies all day.

Not true! Just the other day on my air shift at work, I had Nickelback, Hinder, and Daughtry back-to-back-to-back! How is that not a win? And since there's been what, 46 seasons of American Idol now, we have so many more great singers and artists to choose from! Generic Karaoke Popstar #1, Generic Karaoke Popstar #2, Generic Karaoke Popstar #3, The Guy Who Came In Second...SO MANY GOOD MUSICS!!!!!

Best of luck, watch yr ass and don't get caught...if your in America, FCC fines are a bitch.
Interestingly enough, it wasn't too many years ago but what pirate radio was how most of the "Golden Age" broadcasters got their start. I was just reading a few weeks ago from some trade journal, a guy who was inducted into the Broadcaster's Hall Of Fame got his start when he created a pirate AM station (at the age of 13) that was overriding the signal from a commercial tower. He got popped by FCC compliance officials, and the station that was reporting the complaint offered to cover the fine themselves and take the kid on as an apprentice to "work off his debt." They then gave him a job as an assistant engineer after his apprenticeship was over...guess they figured that if a guy can build a working AM transmitter by himself at age 13, he's got some skills.
Now, ClearChannel/Cumulus/CitadelMedia will just have your balls. So yeah, good luck! Sounds like fun, and I hope you get away with it for a long-ass time.

It feels pretty fucking awesome, now I've got all first grade classes and all second grade classes down. I still have a some third grade classes I need to pass, but I have my last third grade exam on Friday, so it's not like I'm thaaat far behind. Awesome.
