What sucks in your life?

if anyone has a samsung galaxy s3, don't upgrade. you lose sky go, and apparently it's going to take sky months to sort out an upgrade for the new jellybean firmware. the phone also runs slower. i've spent all day restoring my phone back to factory settings with the ice cream firmware, with lots of risks involved.

Fortunately don't use Sky Go. Sky need to get their act together with resolving these issues.

it's a big reason why i went on the 'one plan' with three to begin with, i like to be able to watch the football if i'm out and about. sky seem to be too busy messing around with pleasing iphone users, not realising that there are other smartphones on the market which are just as good.

got it all set up with the old ice cream firmware now, with it backed up to my computer. the only trouble is that it keeps giving me annoying mesages telling me to update to the new jellybean firmware. however it can be halted (unless you update an app, then it re-appears) if you force stop the 'software update' feature in applications manager.

i will update it to jellybean as soon as sky pull their finger out.

on the grid.

I haz too many controlled assessments, and if anyone has ever done a science ISA, then you are incredible. I have my phsics, biology and chemistry ones coming up soon, and each one is worth 25% of the GCSE. Exams? I can deal with months of non-stop revision, but ISAs are something different. . .

I hate Michael Gove.

Also the OCR exam board are annoying.

OMASM. Radio presenters are like fruit. Matt is my kumquat and Scott is blatantly my orange.

I also hate Michael Gove. But at least you're not paying 9 grand a year for the pleasure of learning stuff xD

Also WJEC are way more annoying.

And I won't sit down,

And I won't shut up,

But most of all I will not grow up <3

Sorry !!

Just found out from an unemployed neighbour that this f* Government will be able to SPY on people doing their jobsearches. From Monday, 19th November apparently a new thing coming where you have to allow access to the Job Centre to view your new job search account?! I mean, what the fuck? !

Having to return to the 'Orange' shop (I knew I would) - every new 'phone requires numerous trips to the 'Orange' shop. Have a sound problem with my new 'phone, so when I make videos, I would have to shout over every one to be heard on playback. Also, when I access youtube, each video is only playing for a few seconds, then shutting off. Other than this, we are fine !!

Knowing someone rather close to me is dealing with depression and huge self esteem issues. Its not the cause of them, but having recently found themselves single is not helping either. Rather surprisingly this has been for a few years and there was no sign at all, not to me anyway.

Felt very odd seeing someone who I am more used to thinking of a running around a rugby pitch trying to disintegrate the opposition sat in a corner of a room crying :\

Attending a pointless meeting today with pointless f* people. Longing for the weekend for some space (IF that is indeed possible) - weather doesn't seem to promising for Saturday, so I may not manage my cycling.

PLUS my newspaper "fame" is starting to become a menace. Got so many people asking "What are YOU going to do next"? Like I was the only person in the situation, eh?! Not to mention the fact I STILL have not got any more correspondence from Parliament, and will have to follow this up next week. After that, we MAY see what I will DO next.

Why do OTHER people have no patience. PLUS, I had someone try to TELL me where I should go and live next. Er... I... yes, that is right... I will decide on what I think of the next place I will go and live in.

    • I would rather do the new music show than the breakfast show early starts, being cheery and entertaining isn’t my vibe and being hip and on trend. With new music it’s a different kettle of fish that could get my teeth into and enjoy researching and planning of the show and coming up with ideas and making my mark in away that I don’t think I have the ideas for a breakfast. I don’t see how it could be alienating but I enjoy the niche and speciality of expertise that new music shows gives it’s good spot of giving you the headlines and setting the agenda of mainstream music.
    • Absolutely, Jack is such an incredible broadcaster already, incredibly entertaining with such brilliant music knowledge and his excitement is contagious, I've never really listened to New Music Shows like Future Sounds but I'm instantly invested in new music due to his show, as I'm sure many others are too.  yes the effects are a little strange but after listening back they're strangely charming when you get used to them. 
    • Jack has smashed it He was born for this show, he said he’d been dreaming of it and you could tell. Such passion and energy as always with Jack but in a show that can grab people’s attention and drag them down the rabbit hole of new music if you had a keen interest in discovering new music but haven’t in a while, new music shows can be alienating with no familiarity until you ‘get into it’ - the new show has ensured you can ease into to get back into sync . i love the Zane influences - he will be the forefront of where every emerging and returning artist wants to be with this show . Very excited for this chapter
    • Oh I though they were nbh studios   
    • Yes, I feel that unless it’s for a special sessions with a large ensemble band that for live sessions going out live on the radio. Never saw why they haven’t used the live lounge studio and feel that room could be used more.  
    • Interesting now Zane has for apple interviewed anything from an artists that have charted and doing less interviews with new and emerging talents chatting to Shakira, Usher, Kelly Clarkson and Shania Twain. Yes, that is a positive thing about Jack Saunders. Although I don’t mind it from time to time for a presenter to be honest and spill an unsavoury opinion about music on the station like Annie did with Fall Out Boy.
    • Interesting Jack mentioned they've got new studios at Maida Vale; you'd think, with the move to Stratford, they wouldn't bother update the studios so close to the end...
    • I assume it's meant to appeal to a TikTok generation
    • Yep Jack is very much Radio 1's modern day Zane Lowe - but with the bonus that he does feel a bit a bit more open-minded and open to chart stuff than Zane was. I could never imagine Zane being a chart host the way Jack is - I always had the sense if Zane didn't approve of your music taste he'd make you well aware of it.
    • I will still call them sessions as feel with gigs it makes you think of a live tangible means of going to listen to a band play music and not virtually tuning in via the medium of radio.
    • He does what the show needs regardless of how annoying some people may find his presentation style is like. I feel and very much do hope he is in for the long haul and could atleast do four years where his energy may into be as always as bouncy. But he has the knowledge, passion and interaction and not so overbearing but very much so sense of confidence that you need. I think he could easily have a good Zane Lowe like era. Just hope that they consider doing a new late night live music show as I do miss that something of what he had in the early days of the indie show and when Huw Stephens was on live at the after ten slot
    • Speaking of the sessions, they've been renamed Live Gigs for any forum members not listening to the show & reading this later
    • I’ve found the jingles are annoying and going to grate on the listener quickly. It’s a good opening week with big name hottest records and sessions
    • With the effects I'm half expecting a massive whoooooo soon
