Im back from the funeral in new zealand, well I was a few days ago, but i have had heaps of homework. So yea, just a quick blog. How has everyone been?

Gahhh!
I was enjoying my holidays soo much. It was great just being able to play 360 all day, everyday! (From 8am till 11pm, 5 days a week) Im feeling abit better now than the last week, So i apoligise for my previous blog. I turned comments back on, but please dont comment the other blog. I had a 2 day Xbox live gold membership, where I played 2 days of Gears 2 online. I thought it was pretty awesome, except for that it was glitching abit and I had lag because I havn't opened up my 360 ports yet >.>:P

Thnaks guys

starting this thursday. Im going back to new zealand to scatter my grandpas ashes. Im going to make a poem for the service, because thats really all I can do, and I think he would have liked it if I did that for him. Im sorry everyone, in advance, my head aint in a great place right now. I cant concentrate on much either. I just want to leave all this behind and disappear. If I say anything that isnt usual for me, then I dont mean it. I disabled comments because I dont want you guys wasting your time. & This song reminds me of my grandpa for some reason.
is There No Truth In Beauty - Just Surrender

cya guys and gals

Hello! I wonder if anyone actually reads my blogs/random bunches of crap. Err Anyway I haven't been here lately (If you didn't already realise) because undeniably iv been playing alot of 360, but that's not the main reason. The main reason is because my grandpa was rushed to hospital a short time ago and ever since then things have been worse. He lives in New Zealand so I went over their for a couple of days. Unfortunately It'll be the last time ill see him. The doctors were going to tell us how long he has left today, but they rang my dad today and didnt tell us how long he had left, and instead told us that we should probally come over right away. So, because he is my dad's dad, my dad went over today. My grandpa has had heart problems (Strokes and heart attacks) and has had some melanoma cut out of him. Before he was rushed to hospital he had "Hooping cough" for 8 weeks. What he really had was lung cancer, and its now completely f***ed up his lungs. So, All I can do at the moment here in Australia is sit here wondering how hes going, or if hes "going" anymore:(
So yea, Iv never had any of my family members or anyone I know die, so its a new experience for me. As if I wasn't depressed enough *sigh*
Sorry I havn't been here everyone:(
***EDIT***
We just got a phone call from my dad, and he got to NZ, saw my grandpa for 10 seconds but then he passed away. Im soo sad, I loved him so much, we had so much fun. f***en hell this is s***.

Woooo!! I got an Xbox 360 with Gears of war 2, Kung Fu panda and lego indiana Jones.
Merry Christmas everyone!!:D:D

F*** YEA!!
