The Forums Are Down!

Talk about whatever is on your mind, if it doesn't go anywhere else.

SAYWHAAAAAAAAAAAAA

How's everyone over there in America? Y'alright? Jokes!

Hey, let's all slag off Americans, this seems like a kind and productive thing to do.
I'll go first:
Americans have such terrible access to the forums. What losers.

OMGOD OMGOD OMGOD

This cannot be! How can our friendly american cousins not be able to access our wonderful, less active forums?

*sigh*

It is such a shame. Ridiculing people is much more fun when they are able to use their wonderfully functioning internet to READ IT. D:<

How's your day been, ChrisE? You seem to have been on the PC all day, no learning times?

Ooohhhh, I wish I had some hot chocolate. I've got Nesquik powder though, that'll do.
Did Complex numbers today, apparently i becomes j in engineering, which is bullshit, and I've never even done complex numbers before. =D
Mechanics was easy as hell thankfully, the most basic of stuff. He spent 10 minutes explaining symmetry to us. That was useful.
Got my maths worksheet back, scored 7/10 on Differentiation, which I'll take as a victory seeing as I did it at 3am. No one should be awake then.

How are the A levels going? And how's Jennifer? ;=D

Aha, she's fine. :D

*chooses biscuit, looks at it suspiciously and dunks it*

The A levels arent too bad either. I'm aiming for at least 2As and 2Bs, and i'm on course so far.

And yes, i know all about j. Europeans use it all the time i think. German maths mentoring ftw!

*finishes biscuit*

I love custard creams. I must say, I do hope i get to Southampton. Maths and German is such an appealing subject.

Custard Creams?! Oh, no no no. Jammy Dodgers and dark choccy Digestives all the way.

*guzzles brownie*
This brownie is badass. Some old lady comes to the uni and sells them. I think she slips liquid awesome in them, they're that good.

rololololololololololololol

I'mma go take a few photos of my accomodation. BRB. You'll have one heck of an opinion change!

ROFL HARRIS

This is my room. Not too bad, there's a fair bit cut out of the photo. Bit messy though. And there's a penis carved into my cupboard, and scratched out again.

My Room! 100% less blurry IRL. =\
OMG THER R DEERS OUTSID MAH WINDAW
000_0002.JPG
OMGOMG
But yeah, here's where it goes down the shitter.
Look at this lovely wet-room style shower! Be careful not to stand on the drain, or the whole corridor floods!
000_0004.JPG
Yay!
And finally, the kitchen for 11. I kid you not, I am pressed up against the wall in the corner of the room. Thankfully, we only have to cook on weekends.

Best. Kitchen. EVAR
5 star living, right here in Southampton!

I like the look of the bedroom *lolpenis* and kitchen. Shame its for 11. Thats why self-catering appeals to me. Kitchens are shared between 5 or 6. :D

Whosha lovleh deer? Yeshoo are.

Lol shower. When I stand on the drain at home, my bathroom carpet, yes carpet, gets soaked.

Look what was in my garden this morning. Better than a deer. :D

Nah. It was failing to escape, so I nutured it back to health, put it in a pot, took a photo and released it. :D

We also get loads of birds in our garden.

And I found this beauty on holiday in Kenya.

We have a ton of wildlife back home. We once had a baby squirrel that was shoved out of a tree by its mother, and we phoned the RSPCA which was just down the street, and they told us to fill up a baby bottle with warm milk and feed it until they got there. It was so cute! I was about 7 at the time, so it was the most amazing thing that had ever happened in the history of forever to me! =P

That bird's amazing! When'd you go to Kenya? What was it like?

I'd recommend a safari to anyone! We are thinking of going to East Africa at some point.

DO WANT.

The most... exotic* place I've been is Iceland. That place is amazing. It's like an upmarket shanty town after a nuclear winter. With FUCKING AWESOME CARS. I don't have any photos here, but I must show you the totally pimped Defender that we went on an amazing day trip in. You've probably seen the sort of things they do on Top Gear, but this was an old Defender, and was therefore really badass =D
We went right up a huge glacier, and got to way over 1000m above sea level. The snow and the white sky are completely merged, it's the weirdest sensation. You try running, get lost in nothing and fall flat on your face =P
I also made the mistake of walking across some thick snow after visiting a cave. Turns out the snow was taller than me. I spent a good ten minutes trying to climb out of this hole with my sister laughing at me, and my parents had no clue; they were walking off into the distance chatting with the guide =\

Best holiday I have ever been on, without a shadow of a doubt. But then again, I've never been on a safari. Or gone skiing. Or anywhere else except Spain and France.

Aww, but Iceland! That is so cool! (get it? cool? ahahahahah..a...ha...a...)

I want to visit every capital city in Europe before I die. I've done a few...

London, Dublin, Belfast, Athens, Berlin, Paris, Rome, Vatican... Plenty left to go.

Have never been to Spain. Everyone's been to Spain...

Aww, that's actually a great idea. Might have to put aside a fair wad of cash to even make that possible though...

This conversation is OVER. URGH.

None of 'em could get in. So me and ChrisE had jokes times. We gather it's Americandomism.

...And now we're going round Europe in an amphibious caravan.

Yanni,

[16:45] <Socky> Why are the forums working for me?
[16:45] <ChrisE> because you're not american, socky
[16:46] <LittleViking> Maybe your DNS servers haven't updated.
[16:46] <sidke> your dns cache socky

Thats whats wrong.

There is a current temporary host at forum.easterviking.com

I didn't have an access to therealn.com neither until now (or maybe an hour earlier, I just came home), although I'm not American. Is the site up for everyone, now?
