Not Back.....Yet

Hey guys, still don't have my computer back yet, it seems to have been put on the backburner in my house at the moment :(
So i don't really have any indication as to when it will be back

Anyway, a quick update on the events of last week :

Work Experience - Was pretty good, didn't do much hard work, just cleaned out a few practice rooms, watched how the recording process takes place, ate donuts.....lol

Muse and Kasabian gigs - Absolutely fantastic, was quite stressful getting there as we wanted a good place for Muse standing (which we got!) and we had to pick up Alex and Steven on the way (and another friend called Elliot)
So the 4 of us queued for a bit and managed to get pretty much at the barrier for Muse which was just everything i expected plus more, just fabulous!

For Kasabian, things weren't as rushed coz - 1) We were seated and - 2) Steven didn't have seats near us.
So we picked up Alex and Elliot (i'm just gonna call him El now, coz that's what people usually call him)
Got our seats which were great coz you can see everything from seating, although we did feel a little annoyed coz standing is of course better.

(I did ask one of the stewards if she could let us into standing but she kindly refused....also loads were jumping into standing but we didn't want to chance it, might have done if there was only two of us but of course, there was 3)

But once it started we didn't give a damn, we just enjoyed, which was awesome!
Also we had two drunk guys show up next to us in their seats and we were worried there would be some hassle at first but it was fine and they were a great laugh and added to the entertainment that night lol.(started "mosh-pits" in the seating area.) LOL

So yeh, it was, as expected an "epic week" :)
When i get my computer back i can of course go into more detail but unfortunately that will have to do for just now....

And on an end note....

I will be seeing Muse again.....

This time at WEMBLEY STADIUM!

Steven's dad got tickets this morning in pre-sale, so we will have to get a hotel etc. for one night and sort out travelling, but we have ten months to do so, coz the concert isn't until September 2010....

But i'm already excited! :D

Bad thing is that Alex isn't allowed to go, so it will be Me, Steven and his dad and maybe El, because we think we have a spare ticket, but we will see.

I hate to leave right now coz i honestly can't believe how much i am missing having my own computer....guess i was taking it for granted but then again, i have been without it for almost three weeks.

Still missing you guys and just generally the whole blogging community as well

Hope i will be back soon :)

Cheers,
Rowan

Quick Post

Hi guys just a quick post to let y'all know i'm fine and an update on my computer.

My uncle came round on Wednesday and had a look and took my hard drive!

I was hesitant to let him take it, god knows what he might have found on it, let's hope he hasn't seen stuff like my bookmarks, passwords etc. or i could be in a rather awkward position....

If he has seen anything let's just hope he won't mention it to my parents or to anyone. He seems trustworthy enough anyway.

We got a call from him earlier saying that the hard drive was corrupt and that he has taken everything off it and saved it to disks. So i need a new hard drive.....bah......i need to start everything from the start.....kind of. Coz he saved it onto disks i can hopefully just put them back on but i don't expect it to be that simple somehow.

Anyway thats all about my computer, might be back sometime next week.

Oh yeh, next week

The "Epic Week"

If my computer isn't back i won't be able to keep y'all up to date but even if i did have it i might still be quite busy. Don't worry tho i will tell you all everything as soon as i can.

I'm actually getting quite excited about it, and nervous.

Just so much happening, work experience, 2 concerts....i dunno what to expect really.
I already sort of know the guys where i'm going but i have no idea what they could ask me to do.....we shall see.

Can't wait for the concerts tho, they will be great!

If i just had one wish right now it would be for my computer to be back....quite sad, i know. But i miss being on MSN, reading blogs, reading A Rent-Boy Named... etc.

I wanna get back to it all but as they say, good things come to those who wait!

Hope y'all are ok

Cheers,
Rowan


P.S. While i was writing this my dad informed me that my uncle got the computer running on Linux, but i need to bug my mum for the CD to install Windows (and i owe him 6 cans of Stella Artois.........i don't think so)


P.P.S. (or is it P.S.S?)

Here's the new Muse video (had to size it down a bit) :



Bye!

Computer Problems

Hey guys, this is just to tell you all that my computer is down at the moment (i'm using the house's main computer.......quite dodgy)

The problem is that my computer restarts itself without warning usually a few minutes after switching it on.

I can't even do a system restore.

And it doesn't work on safe mode either, i have tried pretty much everything i know.

it must have some sort of virus unfortunately :(

So the end of the story is that i will be unable to blog or go on MSN for a while, dunno how long.

We have an uncle coming over on Wednesday to have a look coz he's quite good with computers so i could have it back as soon as Wednesday.

Although i do anticipate it to be a little while longer.....

On a side note, Steven's house was good fun and i got to light my fair share of fireworks (which i had never done before) and his dad let us have a few drinks!

Yeh, fireworks and alcohol don't mix well but we were fine and his dad was in control, so overall it was a bloody fantastic night!

Well, i won't be able to keep blogging etc. on this computer because it is quite risky so i may be gone a while as i said.

Stay safe on Guy Fawkes night :D

See ya soon hopefully,
Rowan
