Death to all that is sansbury's...
Got woken up at fucking half past NINE O CLOCK today, by a phone call from work. I peel my head off the pillow, reach over and grab the phone which is ringing incessantly despite me sending HATE rays at it with my mind, so i answer it. "Guhh.. he-hello?" (it is fucking half nine and i AM unimaginably tired, and i shall explain why later) (no, not that you cheeky minx) "Hi, this is Nicky from sainsbury's, i was asked to call you as you were supposed to have started work at nine." ".........what?" (i didn't say 'dotdotdot', it's for effect!!) "I'm not working until tomorrow. Am i scheduled?" "er, let me have a look a sec..... *clack*...........*clack* hi? Yeah, you're not on there for today-" "-ahthankyou-" "-but can you come in if you're needed?" "er... no, i doubt it, i made plans." HAHAHAHAAAAHHAAA I DID NO SUCH THING! fuck! Anyway, yeah, so i'm bloody tired. Last night, 1 am rolls around and i'm bored shit less, so i think, 'i can have a lie in tomorrow, why don't i watch a metallica dvd?' So, two discs of fucking pwnage later it's around 4 and i crash out, safe in the knowledge i'll sleep until evening. HO NOES!!! bloody work ¬_¬ anyway, yeah, that's it. Were you expecting more? Get a job, learn to hate it like the rest of us. Current Mood: tired | | Monday, August 9th, 2004 | | 9:29 pm |
Oh no, i'm getting used to this LiveJournal contraption...
Another update, in less than four months? Shitting hell, let's hope i don't get regular (i don't mean high in fibre). I'll not go on a fucking long tangent like my last entry, as i'm feeling a lot more... sombre this evening. I just watched Lost In Translation, and whilst I loved it, it's put me into a very thoughtful mood, and i usually start feeling very low when i get into those. BUT FEAR NOT HERE IS THE RANDOM CAPS QUOTIENT MET!!!! WWWWIIIIIZZZZZZZBUNG!! k, that's sorted, next: I've started trying to get my head in gear for managing events and money for when i've gone to uni, and i'm trying to get the ball rolling for the next angsticon (possibly in cardiff as that'd be super easy for me to attend, and i can give a roof for one or two folks the nights before/after) but we need to all have a chat about it first, maybe get everyone into the chan one night and see what they think. I've also had a breif chat with shakey and rach about heading to lancaster again sometime in the future, maybe in winter, as they all rock and I haven't seen them since February (which was a wicked trip might i add, so i look forward to going again). I'd best start thinking about what i need to take to uni with me, like some essentials and stuff (cds, stereo, computer and so on) but I'll probably leave that until just before i go, as i'm a lazy sod like that. God help me when i'm living on my own, i'm looking forward to it but i just know i'm going to be a scruffy whore and get a bollocking from mum every time she comes to my place, but meh. I'll soon get sick of my own mess I'm sure, so i'll work out in the end. I dunno what else to write now, as i went and did summat and lost thread of what i was saying, so mayhaps tomorrow! Oh dear, then i WOULD be posting regularly. Guh, oh well, KEST LAA VEEEE See, i speak french? Evening puddums~ Current Mood: sombre | | 2:50 pm |

Updatery time
Well, not sure what's going on at the moment, as i feel some-what down, but without cause. I've had a good night, some family friends were over for dinner tonight, and it was a great night, I spent about two hours laughing, but I still feel odd. Well, in light of spontaneous mood, let's review everything. Japan Four: The band's doing alright I think. We've got an... alright two track demo recording done, which we'll use to submit to Glastonbury Festival. I've produced a new logo for the band, although I guess that has to be a tentative vesion if we change our name. We're practicing on sunday, and maybe this wednesday (although I'm unsure about that). It's been so long since we practiced that I'm some what worried about our gig in just over a weeks time. Also Matt is being somewhat of an idiot, and Dan seems to want to move away, so I dunno what this means for the band in future. Me and tom'll always want to stay in, but fuck knows about those two. Money: I've done well with money this month. I bought my mum's birthday present WAY ahead of time, and that's why I have about £5 to last til saturday (which I can do easily). Womens: Cock all happening at the moment. I think this may be contributing to my odd mood, as I've not pulled since November, and that's worryingly long. That being said, i'm not currently attracted to anyone, and obviously no one is attracted to me (that I know of) (Sarah doesn't count). Friends: Things are weird with my friends. I feel like I'm becoming distant from them all. Sam's changing in some way (although I'm not sure how exactly) and my 'relationship' with him seems to be changing too, although it might just seem that way to me, I dunno. I haven't the foggiest what to say about Dano, he's being odd lately. Not sure what to say to him, either, as he knows how I feel about what he's doing. Things with me and tom are as always, and Carl actually exists again. One gripe I have of late is that I seem to get exluded from things. Nothing major, it just sucks. Hell, i may just be being selfish, but bleh, it just feels a mite bleh. Miscellanious: Original Sin (my old band) are having their last gig on saturday, which I'm looking forward to. I won't be able to get drunk, as I have to play and subsequently dismantle my kit at like, 11pm or something. | | Sunday, February 1st, 2004 | | 8:24 pm |
A little on the thoughtful side...
Well, just watched an episode of Scrubs that, whilst was absolutely great (as usual mind) ended on a rather... angstsome note. I'm not angtsy or anything, just feeling a tad melancholy. And that's why I'm JOURNALING and also writing some lyrics for the band. ~~ When you stand and look at me And then you kiss me I just wanted to be free But then you trapped me One day I will make you see Just what it’s like to be me So you cry out for me What else can I do? When you cry out for me I've done everything for you ~~ Anyway, random lyrics that I've sort of written, as it were. So, updatery time! College: mostly followed last weeks to do list, although i let slip one lang assignment to this week and didn't do my lit work (so i skipped the class and said i was in the studio). I've still to get stuck into my work for uni (fucking audio portfolio ¬_¬) but I'm looking forward to getting it cleared up and sent off. I have been working a fair bit on my MIDI project, and ought to be getting the overdubs sorted for it in the next week or two, and my compositional piece is coming along very nicely, just a few things to tidy up and then it's ready for sending off on the cd. Got my studio recording re-done at last, sounds good this time, really good. Japan Four hit the studio on thursday, so I'm looking forward to that. Ought to get three tracks down for the demo, and then we can enter the Glastonbury competition. What HAS pissed me off a bit is that Dan wants to mix all the tracks on his own, despite the fact that as a guitarist he's going to fuck with my drum track and make it suck no doubt. I've told him that the demo we send is going to have the drum sound that i distinctly have in mind, so i'm going to sort my own levels and whatnot, whether he likes it or not. Things on the women front are fairly quiet, although there is a complication i'll go into in IRC, but I don't want to on my LJ. Went to a random party last night, which was potentially cool. Unfortunately, it didn't achieve its potential, so me and tom left, walked the three miles back into glastonbury and crashed the stoner party and Dan and Josh's. Stayed and watched a film, left at about 1:15 am. Got home some time past 2. Work was cool this weekend, actually enjoyed parts of it chatting with Josh and various people (Josh is my mate's brother so now there's a person of similar age to me who isn't a fucking towny or boy racer). I'm getting better at my work too, which is also of the goodness. Helped a customer with a suit today, he put it back as he wanted to look around, but he seemed fairly into the suit. My till work, besides a spot of complete coordination loss for ten minutes after i got flustered (sort of) when i did a fuck up. I'm bored now, so if I forgot anything... well then bugger it, it's piss to the wind~ Later. Current Mood: melancholy | | Tuesday, January 27th, 2004 | | 4:17 pm |
They're packed full of vitamins and good for you...
In a bit of a South Park mood at the moment, which explains the title. Woo for South Park music~ Since my last post life's been alright really. I've got my coursework for English drafted and handed in, so should get that back soon. English Language coursework is next on my to do list that's major, so i'll get stuck in to that in a day or two. Got some letters from Universities now, three to say that they have my application and are processing it and one to say that Bath Spa want an audio portfolio of my recent work to see if i'm suitable for their course (which Wixey and my music tutor are helping with). Got very drunk and very stoned on Friday night, so it was a good night. It was Sarah's 18th (some girl from college) and most of my mates were there, and of course there was the mandatory MOSH RING for the Darkness, Queen and Muse~ Rerecording my music tech coursework on friday, since the last version was pathetic really. Should do it well this time (in theory). Hmm, can't think of anything else that's interesting to say, so I'll leave it there. Have fun~ | | Thursday, January 22nd, 2004 | | 8:34 pm |
Review of the contemporary Netz
Well, here we are again, my opendiary/livejournal attempt number three. Anyway, now, how are things with me? I'm not too bad. Things are going well with my band, Japan 4, and we're being nicely productive. It's nice to work with musicians who can actually be arsed. Our site is at www.japanfour.tk if you want to check it out. I've got a livejournal and opendiary going at the moment, so i'll alternate between updating this and that. Nothing happening with the women front at the moment, although I don't actually have my eye on anyone either, so I'm not too bothered to be honest. I'm finiancially FUCKED =D I have 3p to last me a week, and i've had that much for two weeks. Not bad by my count. I ought to get paid a shit load on wednesday though, so i'm going to finally spend some REAL money then. We're heading to the cinema to see Last Samurai, I owe my mother some money and have a Snare Skin for my drums ordered in Jaywalk, so that's a nice little bit of monetary activity already. Things are cool with my friends, no one is particularly irritating me at the moment, so no bitching or whining in this post. Talk is resuming about our holiday in summer, so it looks like it may just well go ahead again (huzzah~), and this time with people I like =D I've got a trip to Lancaster next month planned (must put some money away, come to think of it) which ought to be fun, get to hang with my friends Pete and Rach (and that Shakey fellow i SUPPOSE :p) for a few days. College isn't going too bad, although i'm behind on coursework as usual. I've several deadlines coming up soon, so I'd best get my arse in gear starting next week. I'm pretty clear about what to do for English Language, and English Literature is a matter of actually STARTING it. Music Tech's an ongoing thing, which i do in class anyway. Japan 4 are taking to the studio in a few weeks, and then using the demo recorded then to enter into the Glastobury Festival Unsigned Performers Competition 2004. Entering gives us a chance to get to the finals (if our demo is seen as good enough), and the finals a chance to play at the festival. Wish us luck with that. We played a battle of the bands a week ago today, and we didn't win. The winners, however, were DDT, a band I'm good friends with, so it's not too bad :p We came within the top three, which is a nice confidence boost considering we'd written and practiced the songs we played only the week or so before we played the night. I'm going to stop now, as this is dragging on, but I'll HOPEFULLY update again sometime soon. ~ | | Tuesday, January 6th, 2004 | | 12:09 pm |
Here we go again
Ok, I've purged my LJ and am ready to start again. This is the first LJ entry I've posted in a year or more, so count yourself lucky if you're reading! Back to college today, after my one single solitary lonesome day off that was... YESTERDAY! After working everyday i was in the country (Was in wales for Christmas and the two days following) I feel well and truly knackered. A week thursday I have an exam, and joyously enough it's the same day as I'm playing a gig, so I'm going to have to work on balancing practice and song learning with reading the novels for my English Literature exam and actually doing some relatively effective revision. Also have the first draft of my Lit coursework essay due on thursday. I'm sign off for now, as I'm being unsociable and stuff, so have fun~ |
