I'm back!

I sorry I haven't posted recently but my computer died. I am on Linux now so it works. Bristol was great! I preferred Sunday's filming, although it was a little cold! I'll post some pictures when I've fixed my computer.

Other Margries???

I was searching through Skype contacts for Margrie and found Jeremy Margrie in Australia! We got talking and he said that there are only about 11 Margries in Australia and they were all related. I thin I should dig deeper and find out about my family history. But I do have a reletive who lives in Australia but I don't think he was on the Margrie side for the family.

Test over!

I did the science GCSE past paper and I sort of feel that I did okay. At the moment I'm listening to one of my favorite songs - Here Comes the Sun - by (of course) The Beatles. Next on my play list are some great songs from the Over the Hedge Soundtrack. I thought it was a great film. Some of the story line was a little weak but the music and voice talent was good. I would give it... 6, no... 7 out of 10. I'm doing it again, aren't I? I can no longer watch a film without thinking "Ooh good CGI" or "The music isn't perfect for this scene". That's the price you have to pay for watching films with a BAFTA judge.

I better got on with some science then!

I have to get a science GCSE from a couple of years ago done, sorting out the questions into ones I can do, one that are OK and ones that I'm not sure of. For the latter group I have to go through them again with the revision guide to find the answer, I just want to LIVE!

On a side note - if anyone out there uses Game Maker, how does one make an up and down moving platform, I sort of did it but the player object got stuck and I decided to for get the idea. Also if any of you have idea for levels I would appreciate them. It is a platform game based in the vaults of Habbo Hotel. The game is called Tobbin - Habbo Thief, after something by brother said after seeing Wayne's World - "In France she would be called 'le renard' and would be hunted with only her cunning to protect her" - But he changed she for he and le renard for tobbin to describe his friend Toby.

Maths today

I was supposed to have my online maths/ICT tutor last Wednesday but his phone line was down so he couldn't teach. Today, though, his Internet was back and we did algebra. I thing you'll find me weird and never read this blog again if I say this, but I kind of like algebra, I sort of find it satisfying getting all the numbers and letters in order and working out the calculation. I am also ashamed to say that if I ever need turning on (sexually) I head website selling scientific calculators or HD video cameras.

I found a video on You Tube of a guy who took his photo every day for eight years. EIGHT! All aligned perfectly. It astonishes me how people don't forget to do it. I'd love to do one but, like many of my previous blogs I forget about them and they die and I just dust them in the the eternal wasteland of the recycling bin.

Last night I went to Kez's house and watched, oh sorry, judged a bit of Happy Feet, some Running With Scissors and the whole of Flushed Away on her BAFTA DVD player. I didn't particularly like Running With Scissors and Happy Feet didn't seem to have a very strong story line, but Flushed Away (which I had seen at the cinema previously) had a beginning, a middle and an end, a good story line, comedy and good British actors.

Yet another paragraph. I have discovered that I love manga. I have even been driven to start drawing! With a pencil and paper! Uncommon thing in my technological world, where art is something that you do in Photoshop or Illustrator. I drew one that I really liked so I put it into my computer and traced it in Photoshop. Then, realising the error of my ways, imported it into illustrator and then exported it into an astonishingly massive JPEG image. You can see it at http://finniii.deviantart.com/.

Hasta la vista, reader!

Am I... famous?

I just did a search of my name and loads of pages came up, with MY You Tube films and fonts on! Does that make me famous, or do I need fan sites about me, forums, my picture on buses, an island the size of Australia made in the shape of my head in the middle of the Atlantic? Anyway, 10 pages is a lot!!! Last January it was 3 results, now it is 340! *Faints*. Even the Chinese know about me! I used a Chinese song for the background of a time lapse and now it is one a Chinese site!!! I don't believe it!

Saying a big hello to all of you in blog land...

Hi, I'm Finn Margrie. My day today - It is the last day of my holidays today (technically) although I'm not sure weather my science tutor will turn up or not. But on Friday I have my other tutor who, unfortunately, will be turning up. Being the first day back with her, it probably won't anything very difficult, maybe just some art and geography.

I have recently gotten into Runescape and I have made quite a fey gold coins in the three days that I've been registered. I'm "Wild Finn15" if your ever on. I love doing the quests as most of them have a good reward at the end, which is always quite satisfying.

Next Saturday (14th) I'm going up to Bristol to be an extra in the film my aunt is making. She needs 18th century "urchins" as a bit of backing shooting. It's a program about slavery for CBBC called something like "Angellica's Journey" the presenter being the CBBC presenter Angellica Bell. Kez (my aunt) did a film for newsround as well called "The Wrong Trainers" which, I thought, was actually rather good.

I think that's all I have to say for today. Sayonara; Finn.
