infuriating!!!

I cannot believe some people's lack of kindness towards others. I mean take today for example, its onlya small example, and maybe because I was slightly more tired, it got to me more, and made me blog about it! This lady in the train station trying to sell Craig a ticket back... sold him one that was really over-priced. I had checked it on the net the day before, and had found out to be a LOT cheaper than the price she first quoted us, then I remembered that the deal was called SUPER-SAVER rather than just SAVER and that knocked off another £13! I was so shocked that one small change to the name of something would cause so much money to come off the original price. It was stupid. Then she wouldn't even let me say goodbye to him on the platform... because I didn't have a ticket myself, I couldn't go blah blah blah! and to top it off, she gave the WRONG timetable print-out to Craig, he knew better though! I really think that the people in that train station really have problems with communication, and being nice in general, and manners! She was quite rude, and it just made my day turn a bit sour. I'm travelling on the train tomorrow, and I hope that I don't get the same treatment!

Results Day

After my first year of Academia (with a nigh on two year gap of not writing an English essay!) I get my marks back today and if ive calculated properly (I should know how to average by now, even when I never got my GCSE maths!) I got a 2:1, chuffed I am, but it doesn't go towards my overall degree mark, so next year, got to work as hard/ or even harder to maintain/ improve this mark. But I am well chuffed about it :) You might ask well, how am I celebrating tonight, well pizza sounds good ;) :)

a shattered happiness

Alongside good and fair justice talks, there always lurks evil... especially when all the world leaders are gathered together under the same roof. What better time to do something which will shake the world in an evil way. I hate watching the news ordinarily, and yesterday watching the 2012 vote take place for the olympics, and seeing champagne freely flowing, I enjoyed the good news that was being displayed all around the country. At the end of the day people were feeling happy and satisfied, and I even said that 2005 was such a good year so far... and not to be over melodramatic, how very wrong we were.
Safety and satisfaction breeds a sense of false security and maybe naivety as to what may happen in the near future.

Fair play to the services who have been working to well organised action plans as to the terrorist attack today. It was merely a matter of time before London was targeted, and they were seemingly 'ready' for it.

But what a time to be deflated, after a major high, the whole of GB comes tumbling down to the reality of a terrorist attack. I mean GB has had nothing of late to be happy about, and so us being the host for the 2012 olympics was something so good, but the celebration has been so short-lived because of the destruction and devastation in London.

I believe that we really do deserve a break...just a little snippet of time to be happy and satisfied, and to have peace... but then if we had that maybe we would become an increasingly easy target for others to destroy it. I suppose we should always be on the look-out and be ready for events such as these, and more to happen.
