New Layout

I didnt exactly want to change my layout, i actually still like it but, i had to change it mainly cause some of the Visual stuff wasnt loading,

and This was the best that i could find, i dont particularly like the summarizing of blog posts it does and the stretching of a image that may be in the post, but the whole read more tab is actually quite nice i must say, saves alot of space and probably loading times

Nothing really changes if you view the direct links to posts, that you will find me post on Twitter, or blog post you recieve via Email if you subscribe, the only real changes is how the blog is viewed directly on the homepage www.mannydas.com

Odd Situation - What Should i Do?

This was originally just going to be a tweet but it ended up being longer that 140 characters evan when having to resort typing like a FOOL in shortened text messaging form,

anyway next month March 30th i get my Phone upgrade, im in that situation in which i want a iPhone but its around that time period in which its a few months before Apple's WWDC, in which the past couple years in this apple event that have announced the new version of the iPhone,

so its settle for the current or wait for the newer model, i hate this cause i really starting to hate my current phone evan tho it has served me well done what i needed it to do, its just the Battery is so TERRIBLE. I need something i can rely on, this may result in a comment saying Manny get a Blackberry, had i not had a ipod touch id probably say yeh why not, but considering ive spent money on apps on the ipod touch which i can use on the iPhone i think i gotta do that, and it be nice not to carry my phone and my ipod around with me lol

and i know what your thinking t-mobile dont do the iphone, they are sneaky sneaky about it, its available for customers on upgrades through customer service and apparently or just those that tell them there leaving T-Mobile cause they want a iPhone that they'll hook you up with one from there German T-Mobile branch through a third party vendor, ive been reading the t-mobile forums yes i was bored and yes im a nerd lol

WHAT SHOULD I DO?

leave a comment or tweet a response, im hoping this will have a similar effect to what i did last month, when selecting a new pair of trainers! (http://www.mannydas.com/2010/01/using-twitter-to-make-decision.html)

Wow did i get robbed?

As you probably read in the previous post i was really annoyed this morning, and that generally stayed during the day, up until about lunch in which i got to make fun of someone i hadn't done in a long while, its sad when this is the highlight of my day.

had a lab practical aswell, something i thought would have been short turned out to be really long, jeez anyway afterwards i took the Rail Replacement bus home, another hour or so journey, which bugged me evan more, but i got to and from Uni for free today so thats a slight positive.

i get home having know the electricians have been in my room, i get home and find my room like this,it properly looked like i was robbed, or a tornado hit my room, so got evan more annoyed now that i have to untangle wires and remove all the dust aswell, which has given me a runny nose again damn dust!

One Irritating Morning

Im already grumpy when it comes to just getting up, but then when something disrupts my morning tasks it annoys me evan more.

i got up this morning extremly grumpy as i had about 4 hours sleep as i couldnt sleep the night before till about 3 ish in the morning, and then stumbled into the bathroom to brush my teeth and tried to turn on the lights oh wait i couldnt turn on the lights cause the previous day the stupid electricians came round and changed all the wiring for the lights in the house, and left the bathroom light unconnected, so i had to to brush my teeth in the dark, and to my misfortune as i grab down into the cabinate below the sink to grab some mouthwash, or what i thought was mouthwash however it turned out to be some muscle relaxing bubble bath, lucky for me i escaped drinking that!

next was showering in the Dark, again not a great experience, then as im getting dressed all power in the house has been turned off thanks to the electricians again cause they came round this morning to continue to do work on the plug sockets now. So i left the house evan more annoyed cause i was gonna listen to some radio and check some stuff on the internet before i left for Uni,

Next im walking to the Train Station, and found out my stupid unrealiable train that happened to be reliable for the last 3 months, i feel like London Overground liturally kicked me in Balls today!

So had to take a rail replacement bus that took forever, a train journey that normally takes about 20-30 mins took an hour possibly longer by this rail replacement bus, and dammit this bus journey had more twist and turns than 24. i got to the point in which these twists and turns were not only annoying me it starting giving me a headache and then eventually making me feel like i wanted to throw up.

Now as i was typing this i was 20 mins late to Uni, so i missed the start of my 10 am lecture so im gonna attempt to go in at the 1 hour break, grrr!!!

Name My New Friend?

Another quick post, Was in lecture today, when we were moved to the Clinical Education building in which it was more of a practical workshop instead of lecture we were comparing 2D X Ray Images with 3D Models of Bone Structures

This is when i met my new friend, i want you the readers of my Blog to give it a name lol

i would have taken a picture of the skeleton we were working with too lol but a woman with a Gimpy Leg stole my groups Skeleton. At the time i was thinking i should steal the gimpy Womans Crutch, i didnt but i most certainly thought about doing so lol

Anyway i leave you with a Special High 5,

Pancake Day

i had a lecture this morning so i had no time to make pancakes myself this morning, and yes i know how to make Pancakes, after watching a Jamie Oliver Christmas Special, when i was home alone last December, there was a recipe on the Channel 4 website, however its no longer there,

So I ran out a bit earlier than normal and got myself some McDonalds Pancakes and Syrup, it was delicious :p om nom nom nom, so was the Sausage Egg McMuffin and Hash Brown i ate before this :D om nom nom nom haha

Radiator Pants

You know when you say something and you have no idea where it came from but it generally ends up being funny, for instance some mornings i wake up with a strain usually on my hamstring or any other limb and i told my friend who ended up quoting me on his status on facebook,

Best quote of the day: "mate i think while im asleep, someone else checks into my body and goes to fight club in the middle of the night" - Manny I

Well this is no different, me and my friend were discussing a couple of weeks ago how we dont iron our clothes unless its for a formal occasion etc, as we just rely on body heat to remove the wrinkles and creases. The my friend said her Grandmother Irons her Underpants, which in itself is weird but i dunno where or how this came about but i said

Radiator Pants Are Amazing!

Which sparked off lots of discussion about Radiator Pants generally on Twitter with different variations of Radiator stuff,

Remember how i said Radiator Pants were Amazing well i found something better Fresh out the Dryer Pants and Trousers

lol then came Radiator Gloves, Radiator PJ's lol but then we both tried on Twitter to make Both Radiator Pants and Fresh Out The Dryer Pants trending topics lol, i think over the course of the week about 4 people retweeted it but the first night we attempted this two people retweeted this, and my Friend called me instantly i was in the process of texting her about it lol, geniune amazement about how it got retweeted,

So if your on twitter please help us make #Radiator_Pants, or #Fresh_Out_The_Dryer_Pants or #Radiator_Gloves trending topics

Hard Chrous

There was a Advert yesterday that made me laugh alot mainly cause it looked like a series of Milwall football hooligan fans singing, and thats only funny if you have any idea of what football hooligans are about, below is a youtube video of what to expect from Football Hooligans lol (if you got this in email and the youtube might not show up, best view it at www.mannydas.com)

well after you watched that heres the advert from Puma, it was called The Puma "Hardchorus" which was aired at half-time during ITV1's coverage of the Bolton v Spurs FA Cup match on Sunday, which of course was Valentines day...

upon further reading, the video above was sung by a group of Football fans, made up of genuine Tottenham Fans and Singers that are Football Fans, to their other halves for 14th February 2010

Trousers Tucked Into Socks

Forgot to mention, the other night when at the bar i saw the most amazing thing, Last November i started my movement of Trousers tucked into Socks, well i only saw a Barmaid walking around with her trousers tucked into her Union Jack socks,

i tweeted this immediately as one would do when obviously addicted to twitter, my friend text me soon after telling me to get a picture of the Barmaid, as she requires proof. to which i respond i dunno whats worse, being caught taking a picture of her ankles or asking to take a pictures of her ankles lol

Obviously i didnt try to take pictures purely cause it would lead to a akward situation that there is no wrong or right way to get out of, but it happened and they said it wouldn't Catch on :p

Hot Choccolate and Depressing Playlists

I was watching Rugby in the pub earlier tonight after a fun day out with a friend, the main objective being have Hot Chocolate, we went to Caffè Nero earlier today in order to compare their hot chocolate with the one we had Costa, Below is the Costa Hot Choccolate we had a couple of weeks ago,
As you can see it looks delicious, and it truly was Delicious, so this Caffè Nero Hot Chocolate would have to be impressive. we ordered it, and it looked nice until it became alive,

Probably isnt the best picture of it, probably should have taken a picture of it before it became alive lol, i took some whip cream off with the teaspoon and then it just started to bubble and overflow from the cup lol, making a long story short it wasnt as good as the Costa one.

So Later in the Day met up with another Friend to watch the Rugby, England is playing tomorrow so we had to settle for watching France vs Ireland, but that became more of a after thought after the Place we were watching it in was playing a depressing playlist of songs, it was almost like whoever was playing had just been broken up with and compiled a list of sad and depressing songs enough to make anyone hate themselves lol

the biggest piss take probably had to be when they played a certain song, it was almost like listen here Single People, "Always Look on The Bright side of Life" terrible! me and my mate joked that if the Fray - How To Save A Life came on we would have to resort to cutting our wrists lol thats how bad the playlist was lol, i think the playlist was called, "if you feel lonely or evan if your not, heres how to feel even worse"

The Monster Drop

I started a couple of new Modules on Thursday and Friday, and with these modules comes the annoyance of the assessments, and with each comes a Oral Presentation, Thursdays Module is a Individual Presentation, and Fridays is a Group Presentation in which your producing a pitch in a Dragons Den type style. (http://www.bbc.co.uk/dragonsden/ or youtube search Dragons Den to get a idea of what thats about.)

Now i hate public speaking or evan just speaking out in class i will result in developing a stutter or forgetting what i had prepared, Me and my friend both displayed some symptoms of Anxiety towards these presentations despite the fact that we dont have to do anything till May, however we all know how quickly that will come around.

And after the Introduction to the module, we had a lecture, and in this lecture we rather than listen we were discussing how badly and how we cant do this presentation, now we were sitting a chair apart, and rather than just whisper, it resulted in a series of Back and Forth texts,

Manny: "Dude my presentation is gonna end up sounding like a lady gaga song, pa pa pa pa poker face, erm erm erm oh la la"
Friend: "Hehehehe" "Its not funny... what am i gonna do for the 25th(this month)... im yeah.."
Manny: "Well your gonna have to Lady Gaga it up! haha, dont worry
Friend: "Im Scarded, you an i both kno i aient no lad n i always worry :( how am i gonna do it?"
Manny: "dont be just prepare and practice it till you know it like lyrics to a song!"
Friend: "but there wont be no beats or bass? i dont know how to beatbox either :("
Manny: "Make a beat go on free style :p"
Friend: "Duuuuude its not funny despite me smiling :s"
Manny: "lol ill set up a trap to make the monster trip and fall... theres your beat and bass and TREBLE hahhahahaha your so mean"
Friend: "your words, na na niiced dats hilarious, gold star dude"
Manny: "lol imagine that hooked up to a sub woofer, shit son that could cause a earthquake if the original drop by the monster didn't cause one already lol"
Friend: "your so mean yet fuckin hilarious"
Manny: "im only saying what your thinking"
Friend: "whatever.... but it so true"
Manny: "This has been a very productive day! we made some big beats with huge bass and monster treble and we got rhymes :p
Friend: "Indeed my friend, Indeed Must keep running this Riddem"
Manny: "Whats the Title of your new Single?"
Friend: "The Monster Drop"
Manny: "lol how about The Big Jiggle?"

this is when the lecture ended, hilarious lecture despite being silent and biting of my tongue in order to remain silent and preventing myself from epic belly laughs. in the process destroying my phone battery lol i went to Uni for about 3 hours, left the house with 100% and got home with 23%
