Why do Horizon come up with some crazy title sequence each series? The good old black with burning letters thing is classic, they need to stop messing with it. I’ve just started watching the new series, “Naming The Dead” as I think I was watching Dispatches or at least something on Channel 4 when it was on.
Went to Argos today to stock up on crap for uni. Really random items – bedding, lamps (well ok lamp), plastic container things so I can microwave everything, bags, etc. I also just went to random peoples houses and asked them for stuff ;). Ok my gran’s, she’s great.
She said she had this can opener for me, I was thinking it would just have this simple thing for me. It’s huge and has like four different blades on it, some of them look like the kind of size teeth you get on those industrial crushers at the tip :D. This is a week or so after a nail clipper, mini-blade and scissors. For someone so sweet she sure has a lot of blades ;).
Ok, seriously though where is all this crap going to go? I have to store it in my room for a week which is full enough and my new room will probably fit into my current room several times over. Who needs floor space though? After all I first wanted to get a double bed into the room.
My real worry is internet access as apparently I need to go onto the campus to get my network password. I REALLY don’t want to have to log on each time I want to use the internet as that is shit, if I do, I will look for a way to get round it. I am hoping it’s like my cable internet, just register my machine and I’m sorted.
Although even if I don’t I still have to go onto the campus so I should be able to do everything I need from home Sunday morning and at the latest by online in the halls by Monday night. Otherwise I may be coming home sooner than I thought :P.
Heads up, BBC2’s new series Spacerace finally starts on Wednesday at 9 pm.
I know as a student I should stop spending a crazy-ass amount of money on pointless crap but it’s not going to be easy. I mean, they give me my own postal address for deliveries and a student bank account with £1,000 overdraft – that’s just asking for trouble!
I’m tempted to get a DVD to celebrate my transition into uni. After all, everyone feels down and homesick when they first move out and my comfort is DVDs. Well Dawson’s Creek to be exact but I have the first 5 series and series 6 isn’t available yet.
So I’m thinking about buying a DVD after I have re-assessed my financial situation (if I realise I have plenty or very little then I’m going to pass but if I have just enough then I see it as my last spending spree before I become a pennyless student :P) although that means that I have to pick one, always a difficult decision. I used to keep a huge list of DVDs I wanted but I got rid of it to remove the temptation ;).
I don’t have a shopping problem! Just thought I would clear anything up about that. Ok, I may have a problem buying domains. But I keep it managable. I may not need them but I can afford them. Anyway, I don’t have to justify myself to you! Leave me alone dammit.
Ok, so back on track. I’m toying with which ones to get based on what is on sale on Play and, also, to a lower extent, what I actually want ;). My ideas include:
Those are just some ideas. Actually, some of them, particularly anything like £45 is more wish list than possible list. But hey, I have a birthday coming up. I might add a Sopranos series to the list or finish off my Father Ted collection. Though I’m really tempted by The O.C. boxsets. What can I say, I love teen dramas.
Just watching Friday Night’s with Jonathon Ross. Well actually I’ve turned over for Bromwell High but I’m not between the two. His first guest was Jack Dee, great guy. He was talking about holidays with Jonathon. The quote was something like this (maybe added bits to explain it).
Jack: “People say, you know, ‘did you go anywhere nice?’ Well yeah – course I did. … Spent a week at a sewage works”
Just watching the slumber party episode of One Tree Hill. It just decended into the four girls having a pillow fight in their underwear. I mean, come on, give us a little credit. Although it did have Sum 41 – No Reason playing so props for that.
Just watching this series on BBC2. A pastor in the US is saying why date and have sex if you’re not willing to get married. Because marriage is basically the top step (he made a staircase an anallargy, I don’t know how to spell that). My question is: why does a relationship have to end in marriage? They claim the whole sex and alchol attitude needs to be changed, I think the idea that a relationship has to end in marriage needs to be changed. Yeah, think about it.
So I was watching Cruise with Stelios. I’m sure I just saw him get off an American Airlines plane. Can’t blame him, but still, he should at least tell them to edit it out if he isn’t going to fly with Easy Jet :P.
Joey: “On your left is a tyrannosaurus rex from the jurassic period”
Ross: “Actually it’s the cretaceous period”
That’s not true. Has he never seen Jurassic Park :P.
Ok seriously though, I don’t get this show. Why does Ross, clearly the largest friend, simply not eat all the others?
Ok, so lets say you want to loop through an array using foreach but you don’t want to show values, you want to show keys, or you want to show both. Use the following code:
foreach($array as $key => $val) {
Then you can access value via $val and the key via $key.
