    See I agree with you, the 39 is a stupid bus, but the 25a is even worse, Ongar has more people than where you live, that place is HUGE these days! I can tell you the exact procedure for Dublin Bus complaints:

    1. Send letter of disgust to Dublin Bus
    2. Someone is paid to read this letter, and many many more up until they read "I am unhappy/pissed off/angry with your lack of service".
    3. Letter is thrown into a bin.

    Friday was a good day for you then, grand FINALLY getting acknowledgement and approval! :D:D

    Or I can just randomly befriend the young driver who always seems to be extra nice to me (it's a bit creepy) and take it from there... Though I haven't seen him in a while meh.

    They gave me (when they pay it) a maintenance grant. My sister only gets her reg fee paid for and then a tiny bit of cash for books, so I got a lot more money and I'm not sure why because my living conditions are exactly the same as my sister's. Not sure if I should ask about that. Every time govt people have got things wrong in my favour and I've asked about them, they said that it didn't matter and to just accept it anyway.

    Why did I get myself into this, I'm going home for the anniversary of a dead person who wont even know it :confused:

    Tsk tsk.... you made me do it... I ended up craving roasted vegetables for ages and had to make them. I was trying to be lazy!



    Hmmm I had the weird realisation that I'm currently blonde, so I decided to post these pictures. Not gonna put them in the other thread because they're not that type of pictures I guess.
    That is my hair right after I woke up: still unbrushed, not touched at all, no product in it and looking kinda bad lol It looks better when I actually do something to it I swear! And it's in much better condition than it looks in that picture. Oh and I seem to have traces of makeup all over my face, but I can't remember last night anyway so I'm guessing I didn't remove my makeup.

    It's mostly non-sunny natural light (I took that beside my window) with a bit of artificial light on the background.

    And this is a swatch of it with all artificial light.

    That's the first bit of news I've heard from you in daaaaaays!!!

    Young impressionable drivers, thinking they can drive you wild but get lost very early in :p Glad to hear you got that nice grant, and no never complain...the way I see it: it's their fault and not yours for possible mistakes, make the most of it:D That's the first time I've seen the full head of blonde...you had it covered up last time >.< It looks lovely!:)

    You can't remember the night before? Either good times or bad times, I'll not ask lol:pac:

    Do keep in touch:)

    It's a nice colour aye, original was still pretty!

    I think we all need haircuts at this stage, I've not had one in 7 weeks now...head on me!

    Oh well, off to bed for a 6am start....ttyl veggies!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,541 ✭✭✭anothernight


    Awh thanks! :)


    Call me a practical girl but I never understood the obsession some people have with precious stones, to the point of shelling out loads of money for something that (in non-industrial applications) is essentially just a useless shiny stone. Though... shiny.............. argh!!!
    Pwetty things are great but only if they don't mean that suddenly I'm gonna have to cut down on a load of other things for the sake of having pretty things. I guess I'm just cheap :o
    Young impressionable drivers, thinking they can drive you wild but get lost very early in :p
    I think some people might take offence at that :p
    Also I think I scared him off a few times by being annoyed at waiting so long and giving him angry stare when he tried to smile. I'm quite sure some of the usual bus drivers don't like me (if they remember me anyway). Some of them are great people though ^^
    That's the first time I've seen the full head of blonde...you had it covered up last time >.< It looks lovely!:)
    That was because it was at an in-between stage (I think before toning, or it might have been before the second bleaching. I can't remember. It was still yellow anyway).
    You can't remember the night before? Either good times or bad times, I'll not ask lol:pac:
    I didn't drink!!! I forgot to bring ID as I was rushing out of the house and I was gonna be with a friend who's underage anyway. We watched the black swan and I'm still not sure if it was brilliant or shít with all those "wtf" things and all the really good sexy bits. I was very tired though so that's why I can't remember the rest of the night =/




    If there's a veggie meetup soon (and there should be!), I'm considering asking my friend from college to come with me as he wants to become a vegetarian... but I'm not sure......

    /gets out mod fist for MoN :pac:

    Perfectly reasonable about gems there bruna, nothing as stupid as buying something like them if it affects you adversely. Engagement rings that cost thousands etc in a bad economy?

    do bring him along! organise it there!

    not sure how I made that happen lol! Yesterday I made roasted potatoes and veg and then ordered pizza while they were on :confused: Had them today nearly burnt to a crisp :/

    ooo very very nice, I like your cut too. This is the longest I've gone in a long time without cutting my hair, think it's about 8months :eek:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,028 ✭✭✭✭--LOS--


    It says...
    the light traces were made by an LED headlamp pointed back at the camera as I walked around the structure.

  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,115 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,541 ✭✭✭anothernight

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,541 ✭✭✭anothernight


    Snooker in the GMB?

    You didn't know about Java City in the Hamilton?! I probably wouldn't survive without their americanos tbh.

    I wasn't on the laptop until I had to check something online that was bugging me for ages!!
    I have to get up at half 6 so sure, no point in sleeping now.

    I'm thinking of making burritos or something when my cat wakes up. Or more cake. Hmm.

    Most of my friends and myself have never seen the book of Kells either. "Ah sure, we have 4 years to see it" is the usual phrase. The only time we tried the place was closed >_<


    You can have insomnia for years, but when you finally ask your doctor if there's anything you can do about it, they're so unhelpful you begin to wish you had some weapons and a place to hide a corpse. And less cameras. Fúck them. Seriously.

    I was planning on making a very nice simple extra fluffy honey kasutera. It will surely convert her. I just need to actually meet her and also get a new battery for my kitchen scales (it's impossible to eyeball that one).
