Any job - i would like to own my own business and a successful one too with a brand that is well recognized.
Be anyone - i think it would have to be someone like Bill Gates, just because he has built an empire on which we as a world today live on and cannot live without

Twilight... *SIGH!*
Whilst sitting in work today bored writing articles about viral marketing and why buying a franchise is a good idea for some keyword sites (interesting I know!) they mentioned the new Twilight film trailer on Radio 1 that is due to come out in July some time.
When they mentioned it, it just made me realise how much I actually dislike the films. I think the main reasons I do not like them is because it is one of those really pathetic love stories that are so predictable, everyone in the film is so "perfect", the sickening love between a vampire and a mere mortal just would not happen even if such a thing existed and a vampire being a vegetarian, psst... please!
Also vampires do not shine like glitter in the sunlight... THEY DIE! If there is one thing Blade taught me is vampires do not like the sun shine as it will kill them, Stephenie Meyer must have been on drugs when seeing glittery vampires in her books.
I have been to see both films in the cinema (not through my own choice, my girlfriend made me do it!) and it was more like watching a porn film with the amount of male nipple that was involved in the film. The best part of the film was when it finished and I said "Well that was shit!" and the guy of a couple a few seats away from us said something along the same lines.
I found this picture on someones twitpic page and thought it was just too good to miss off!
(Click the image to make it bigger!!)
what is the the square root of 1002?
the square root of 1002 is 31.65438358
Yes I did cheat and use Google, but who cares! If Google says that is the number it must be true
Avatar is Pocahontas
I found this image a while back and thought that the difference between the films are uncanny! Has James Cameron just taken the plot from Pocahontas and made it his own by putting it into the future?
Take a look for yourself:
Do you believe there's intelligent life on other planets?
I think it would be naive to say there isn't anything on another planet, whether it is intelligent or not is a different story!
If you could go on a road trip with any person, dead or alive, who would it be and where would you go?
I would love to go out with the 1966 World cup winning team to the pub! That would be awesome!
Being British!
I apologise for the length of this post but just deal with it and I promise the next one will be a lot shorter!
Whilst looking for something to keep me sane at work I stumbled upon this article produced by the telegraph on their website.
It is 'apparently' the top 50 typically British traits. Some of them are true, to a point but others are just ridiculous. My first complaint about this article is:
“The results were based on a study of 5,000 adults who were asked them to pick out the things - good and bad - they believe makes us unique as a nation”
How can someone base their findings of 59million (based on the 2001 Census) people who live in the UK today with just 5,000 people? I think that is not a fair representation of the UK as a whole at all. 
TOP 50 'TYPICALLY BRITISH' TRAITS
1. Talking about the weather – This one I suppose is relatively true but that’s probably because we have such crappy weather that it is a good conversation starter, and we all like to moan when the weather is shit.
2. Great at queuing – Were not great at it at all, it’s just something that you have to do! You go to any country I’m sure they will queue up just the same way we do, in an orderly line
3. Sarcasm - … yeah!
4. Watching soaps – I personally do not watch them, but surely that’s what they are there for?
5. Getting drunk – Everyone likes a drink…
6. A love of bargains – if you can get something for cheaper than what it is should be, then why not buy it? Surely that makes sense or is that just me being British?
7. A love of curtain twitching – If a police car is at the neighbours’ house, of course you are going to have a nosey to see what’s going on.
8. Stiff upper lip – Yeah this one is very true
9. Love of all television – Yep, yep, yep! Love a bit of comedy and Supernatural and Heroes!
10. Moaning – No this one is just not true, we do not moan! And I am not moaning right now, not at all.
11. Obsession with class – If there is, I don’t follow it!
12. Gossiping with neighbours over the garden fence – Knitter natter over the garden fence on a summer’s morning with a cup o’tea FTW
13. Obsession with the traffic – Hmm, to some degree this is true, I mean we will check traffic reports to see where to avoid but hell no do we like it. Traffic is one of the most infuriating things ever.
14. Enjoying other people's misfortune – We all need a good laugh now and then, laughing at someone who broke their leg in a stupid way is of course funny. If your mate broke his leg trying to escape from some small kids who were going to beat him up I am sure you would laugh too.
15. Inability to complain – It’s just not nice… I don’t like to complain so this must be true.
16. Love of cheap foreign holidays – Never been abroad, so I cannot comment but yet again, back to No.6 everyone loves a bargain.
17. Working long hours – Working to long hours so we can go away to nicer places and get away from the crap weather, oops I talked about the weather
18. A soothing cup of tea to ease worries – TEEEEAA!!! Nothing better than a cup of tea to calm the nerves, just makes life that little bit easier to bear.
19. Eating meat and two veg – ah, now there is something that we all love, nothing better than home-made meat and two veg!
20. looking uncomfortable on the dance floor – haha yes! I definitely need a few pints in me to get my dad dancing out.
21. Feeling uncomfortable when people talk about their emotions – it can be an awkward moment for some, but I think that can be the same for any person in any country really
22. Clever sense of humour – We are a clever nation aren’t we?
23. Obsession with property values – Unfortunately this is true but I don’t quite understand why we do. Oh this house is now 10k more expensive than it was 3years ago... whoop-de-do!
24. Pandering to political correctness - stuff it i say!
25. Road rage – Oh yes! My very dear friend Andrew Chadwick knows all about this. “Beep-beep, coming through!”
26. Being unhappy with our weight – I happy the way I am so I say this is crap
27. Wanting a good tan – This is going to relate to the weather again hmmm... I suppose point No.1 is very true thus far.
28. Being proud of where we live – Mmmm... I would not say I am proud of my home town but if you say shit about it I’m afraid I will have to round-house you in true Chuck Norris style, only I am allowed to say things against Corby
29. Not saying what we mean - I always say what I mean, as long as I am behind a keyboard and no one can get me :P
30. The ability to laugh at ourselves – Only because no-one else laughs at our pathetic jokes!
31. Washing the car on a Sunday – It’s a Sunday, what else is there better to do on Sundays? Besides it will get most men away from the wife’s for an hour
32. Taking the mickey out of others – ooooooh yes! Our work colleague Jenny. She loves it, Forest Gump quotes all day long and finding out how many stars she has collected is all good fun!
33. Asking people about their journey
34. Inability not to comment on how other people bring up their children – That’s just rude plus you will probably get a smack in the face
35. Jealousy of wealth and success – We all want everything now! Including you!
36. Being overly polite – I think we only do this when someone has pissed you off and they know they have so you are really nice and they hate it. Quite bitchy but it’s fun or being really nice to sales people then hanging up
37. Texting instead of calling – it’s just easier ok!
38. An inability to express our emotions – yep we are all just solid brick walls... pst shut up I’m expressing my emotions right now!
39. Obsession with the Royal Family – I really couldn’t give two shits tbh, they don’t do much but then again I will have a toast to them
40. Fondness for mowing the lawn – No, there is no fondness of doing it, I distinctly remember doing it as a kid for a quid of my dad and not once did I enjoy it, what a mug!
41. Love of rambling through the countryside – It bores me unless I see a dear or something cool!
42. A love of all things deep fried – Nah I like my 5-a-day more
43. Emulating celebrity lifestyles – I hate celebs, they parade around in their flash cars, with their pretty women (not as nice as mine though) and think they are all the shiz
44. Leaving things to the last minute – Being a student this one is very relevant
45. Irony - Maybe so but at least we know the real meaning of ironic, "its like rain, on your wedding day" NO ITS NOT!!!!
46. Keeping our homes neat and tidy – Well no one wants to live in a shit hole and I’m sure this applies world-wide
47. Take decisions and accept the consequences – That because deep down we are all brave little soldiers
48. Achieving against all odds – Winner!
49. Wanting our sportsmen/teams to fail – this is the biggest lie on here! We do not want our teams and great achievers to fail, they just do it. We have come to terms with the fact that we created most sports but we are just pants at them
50. DIY on a Bank Holiday – Nothing better to do is there?
In conclusion, a lot of the things that the Telegraph say are true but there are some that are very silly!
Rant over!
