Starley-Bob

Is it a bit weird that I have named my car "Starley-Bob"???? Well it wasn't really my idea, it was my best friend (she's weird..).. It all started in 5th year when I got the nickname Shinnie-Bob, soon after my other friends got named Chinmey-Bob and Curly-Bob-Sue.. We have just a little obsession with the word BOB!

So I wasn't long driving when my car got its nickname too... About a week... :)

Anyway anyway HERE -->
Is a photo of Starley in Dublin one day, my dope of a brother managed to get it clamped!!
If you havn't copped on already, its a Toyota Starlet so the name does suit it...

And yes, I managed to damage the car already.. Stupid pier getting in my way!! Well I was not a happy bunny... It is only a scrape but my Starley does have feelings..

It gets me from A ---> B and thats all that matters!! For now.. Until I can afford to spend more on a car... MMmmmm cars.......

My First Weekend in my New Job..

My first weekend as a waitress in the Valley Inn didn't go so good!!

Well Saturday was fine, it was busy but manageable...

Sunday morning I don't know how I got out of my leaba, knowing I had over 9 hours of hard work ahead of me!! But a bottle of Lucozade and I was away..

It was crazy altogether.. But I enjoyed it.. Hundreds, yes hundreds of dinners were served, tables cleared, desserts made and bills paid... And it was all ok until my arm got caught in the door and I sent a full beef dinner flying to the ground.. Woops... I didn't realise a plate could smash into so many pieces.. Right in front of a bar full of people!!

Awh well I cleaned the mess up anyway, I think they are used to dinners going to waste.. But I felt as stupid..

After that, the day was fine... I have never been as tired getting up for college though as I was this morning!!

Its times like these when I just think of the wages at the end of the week ('',)

I Got a New Job!!

Finally, yes finally I left my old job...
I hated it. The boss was, to put it politely, not the nicest of people, and he always gave me a hard time.. Plus i wasn't getting enough hours to keep up the college lifestyle!! Ha! Ha!

But not to worry.. I was finished there last night, and I'm starting my new job tonight! With more hours, better pay and nicer co-workers, I can't complain that I'm actually going to have to do some work this time round.. It is a busy restaurant..

I can't wait!!

Shayne Ward!!

I am shocked and appalled!!

A little less clothes and this video for Shayne Ward's song "No U Hang Up" would be full on porn!!

What do you think???

(Being a big fan of Shayne Ward though, I wouldn't mind being that girl.... :):):):):):):))

Rally Ireland

Anyone ever hear of Rally Ireland?
As part of the World Rally Championship 2007, one stage of it is taking place in Ireland from 15th-18th November this year.
The rally will take place around Belfast, Donegal and Sligo.
All the great WRC drivers are competing, from Sebastian Loeb in his Citroen C4, to Marcus Grunholm in his Ford Focus, to Petter Solberg in a Subaru Impreza..
It's a once in a lifetime experience.

I am passionate about cars and rallying, which you have probably figured out already..
And I am sick, yes SICK that I'm not allowed go to it..

18th Birthdays...

My life be like oohhhhh aaaaaaahhhhhhhh.....

What do you think would be the best way to celebrate your 18th???

Well my best friend was 18 in September, so we decided to get a limo from her house to the town we were going out in... Of course it was great fun, between me and Laura we downed the bottle of champagne and had to stop at the Off Licence for more beverages!! So by the time we got to Ardee we were a bit on the tipsy side....

The night rolled on and 10 (or 20) drinks later I was slightly intoxicated.... We headed to the niteclub and had some fun there!! But then when I was standing outside Luna afterwards, I realised I hadn't got either my WEEK OLD PHONE or my good coat... I had lost them, along with my hat and my hair extensions....

And they never showed up....

..... Disaster or what!!

So as you can imagine I was fairly well in the dog house with my Mam for a while after that!!

Never ever again will I be so careless... It has taught me to be more careful when I'm out now... Two months later and I still feel really bad about it!! I'm sick to even think who is using my lovely new phone..

Anyway!! I myself will be 18 in a couple of months... And I have decided to go on holidays for it!! I don't want to be around here for it, if I'm going to make a right eejit of myself I will do it in some foreign country where noone know's me and noone will judge me!!

Eugene Donnelly.... Best Rally Driver Ever!!

Ok, so thats a bit of an exaggeration, he's not the best rally driver ever..... But he sure does come close in Irish Rallying!! Donnelly is class.... Well I love him anyway... I've seen him rallying a load of times now, and I've even met him a few times... But he's after selling the Subaru Impreza you see him driving in this video **Shock Shock Horror!!** A nice surprise is on the way though for next season.... This video is the Jim Clarke Rally 2007..

Anyway, from my blog title, yes I do love cars, sooooooo enjoy....

College Is Fun!!

Who said college wasn't fun???

Well as part of one of my modules for college, I had to set up this blog.... Being the big computer lover that I am, I'm loving having to sit at a PC in college typing up any rubbish I want!!

And I'm not complaining about the rest of college either, college bar (Not that I be in it now that I'm driving), coffee shops, unlimited use (Well almost unlimited) of broadband, two hour breaks and the beloved bacon sandwich at half 11 every day... Its all good!!!

Funny beng the baby of the place again... After being the oldest in 6th year in school... Well I suppose you always have to start at the bottom and work your way up... ('',)

La la la la la la la what to write???....

.....Still no near death experiences...

Driving- A scary experience?

People always said to me that once I started driving, they would be stopping.... Something to do with fearing for their lives once I got my little rocket on the road.. (Well I wouldn't really call a Toyota Starlet a rocket, but in my eyes it is...)
Well I have news for all ye who have little faith in me!! I officially started driving two days ago.. And I havn't had any near death experiences. Yet.
So after ten, yes TEN driving lessons I finally got there.. And is it as scary as I thought it was going to be??? Ehhh yeaaahhhh....
Ok ok everybody, now that I'm driving, its time you all cleared the roads because Shinnie-Bob and her Mean Green Starlet Machine are here!!

I have learned many things in my first two days driving:

1. Brakes help.
2. So also does petrol. ('',)
   
3. Don't waste your money buying a car freshener. Your driving instructor will make you take it down. Such a waste of €1.69
4. Driving for 8 hours solid really hurts your right foot.
5. Tractors are a very annoying obstruction on the road and only get in the way of speeding. Not that I speed...
6. It is really awkward to drive and change the CD in your CD player.
7. Never trust your little sister to give directions.
   

Anyway, anyway, anyway... I'm bored writing stuff here. Being new to the whole blog phenomenon I don't really know what I was meant to write!!
Ok enjoy...
