Are you serious?
Maybe its a good thing that this is called "The Periodical Rant"...
Sorry everyone. Actually, it doesn't...
Sorry. Went to get my glasses.
Actually, it doesn't matter, no one except me will probably ever read this. And that makes me all sad and emo- like. It's like, "what's the point?"
Note: I've got nothing against emos. I like black.
So, from now on, I'm gonna make a point of reading random blogs.
Hey, maybe I'll even comment on them! So watch out fellow bloggers- hyper_on_water (my online name!) 's coming!
Anyhoo... today I was gonna talk to you about my iPhone 3g. Shall i still?
At the moment its aboput 5 centimetres away from my left hand, and oh goody a text just came in!
Reply sent. Yay!
I love my iPhone. It's never like more than a meter away from me.
Except at night when the parents take it cause they think I'm gonna be up all night texting.
They'd be right too!
That's not the point though. Believe me when I say that this wonderful, wonderful advancement in technology, has changed my entire life!
Weather looks dodgey? Check the weather app. Then get umbrella.
See something thats good for the lulz? Take photo!
Asked to divide something by zero? Calculator. But this won't work, can't divide stuff by zero. Doncha know!
Then there's all the fabulous apps and music that you can buy and download using only a finger tip. Oh, happy day.
And we've got fabulous internet, brillant texting etc.
Now for the faults.
Version 3.0 fixed a lot of them.
Y'know, copy and pasting, voice recorder, a stabilized version of Safari... That sorta stuff.
But there are some little problems.
The email's kinda bland. It'd be nicer if it was more messages like.
And the entire system slowed down. Yes, you can do a reset permissions, like the guy in the O2 store did for me, and it helped, but it's not as fast as it was on version 2.0.
Hey these are minor gripes! It's an iPhone!

Washing Dogs? Hell.
dogs.
1) Charlie, a fluffy, cuddley White West Highland, with big black
eyes. He's always happy to see you- which is great some days, and not
so great when you've just had a crap day. That would be 364 days a
year. My birthday being the good day. At least, when you're 15 it is.
2) Patches, well, she's small as well. We're not entirely sure what
she is. Some terrier, bit of basset hound. You get the picture. A
mongrel dog, but we don't like to use that word, the PC crowd'll be on
to us... Sssh... Patchy has pretty much one aim in life, and that's to
get you to throw her toy. Poor dog. When we taught her to play fetch
we didn't realize it'd consume her life. Sadly, because I'm not in
America, we don't have a doggy rehab center.
Anyway, them being full- time outdoor dogs, they get fairly mucky.
Paticularly obvious on Charlie, him being white an' all. So today,
ther weather here in Ireland being good, as Irish weather goes, I
decided today should be bath day.
Patches was to be the first vict... The first to be washed I mean,
seeing how she was hanging around, and not doing anything.
I actually swear that that dog is psychic. It's like she knew what I
was going to do. She actually went crazy while I was carrying her up
the stairs. Either that or she heard the bath filling.
Torture. You'd swear I was pulling her claws out! 6 hours later I
still have red marks on my arms. She was actually crazy.
Now, in comparison, Char-chars was a likkle angel, all "well behaved".
Not perfect, but a hell of a lot better. Although my shoulders now
hurt from having to hold the pair of them in place.
And I'd to mop the bathroom cause they shook themselves off. Grr.
So, a word of advice. Fork out the €45 and have Petmania do the
grooming for you.

The First!
Aren't new beginnings great? Um... No.
Who here liked the first day of school? Hands up. Anyone? No? See, I was right, as usual!
Butterflies in stomach? Sweaty palms? Nope, I didn't think anyone liked thar kind of stuff.
It was a new beginning though. For some of us we managed to get away from some *word I don't think is allowed*s that we had to put up with for... Oh, eight fricking years!
See, in a way, this blog is a beginning too. For me anyway. Cause I'm the one writing it. Obviously.
Basically, I want to use this blog to get my points across.
I'm very opinionated. It just so happens that the last time I aired my views truely it was in religion class and the teacher... Disagreed... Heh heh. *gulp*
So to air my views!
Tomorrow that is.
