Funking A, man!

ok, so i didnt get any As (i got three Cs and an E, not quite enough to get in to Stafford Uni) but i still got a letter from Staffs saying they've accepted me!

it hasnt sunk in that in just a few weeks i will be moving out of the house that has been my home for about 16 years and going to live with a load of strangers in a big building in a city i've only been to twice...scary!

to celebrate i went a bit mad on Jay And Silent Bob's Secret Stash (http://www.viewaskew.com) and bought Jay and Silent Bob action figures, a Buddy Christ dashboard figure (for when i get that mini...), the Clerks Cartoon series on DVD - signed by Kevin Smith (must remember to see if my 'puter is region free cos i'll be leaving my DVD player at home) and Silent Bob's Dealers Union card which all came to $120. i think that was about £70...
i was slightly annoyed that Silent Bob's overcoat was £400...cant really afford that right now...

i have now watched all the Kevin Smith films. Mallrats and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back are my favorites, although you do need to see all of them before you watch JaSBSB. i do want to add Clerks to my list of favorites too, but that would mean that three out of the five films would be...
i didnt like Chasing Amy much. not sure why. it was very funny, its just not AS funny when you watch it straight after Mallrats.

dont think anything else interesting has happened...i'll get back to you if i think of something.

oh, yeah, i need to email Maddie the free iPod link...and some others too.

UPDATE: i've just remembered an interesting dream i had last night.

i was on the Titanic with all my friends and family and people from work. it was dark, but we could see the iceburg as sort of a pale blue glow in the distance. we got closer to the iceburg surprisingly quickly but we still managed to turn so that it passed us safely on our right. but of course they are mostly underwater arent they? the Titanic suddenly lurched to one side as we went over a bit of iceburg that was just sticking out the water just after the main bit we'd managed to miss. we all knew what happened to the Titanic (im guessing the ship was a full scale replica or something) so we made it go as fast as possible (i have no idea who was controlling it). next thing its morning and we're all on a desert island. the Titanic is run aground (a bit like the boat in Madagascar) and everyone is walking around aimlessly on the beach. mark says something like 'i think we're lost' so i started making up things like the 'one of us is a murderer, one of us is a doctor, one of us has nice shoes, one of us likes shadow puppets' from the Lost advert for everyone. i cant remember anything after that.

Just interested (this will sound stupid and it'll make you laugh your socks off), but can you really get a free Ipod with those links? Or not? My brother said you could but I wasn't sure whether he was joking or not.....

Thanks.
