I have too many ideas
and never the likelihood
of being able to carry
them out.

I feel I have been shortchanging my massive audience out there through my lack of posts
so for Kirsty's sake I will try and post something resembling, interesting-ness(?)
(why is it that my brain tells me that that last phrase could be constured as suggesting kirsty was massive? so point of order it was intended to be humorous)
haha what a douche, as if anyone who's going to be reading that isn't going to get the joke
oh well
I need to stop using 'douche' as much it's become my word of choice recently
I cycle through words of choice pretty regularly, so hopefully soon it'll have moved onto some thing else no doubt
YAY I have, with jo's help, worked out how to download all the new music I want ever ^^
which is sweeet
so far I have downloaded Andrew Bird-Armchair Apocrypha (an album I've wanted for months)
and Beirut- Gulag Orkestar and the Lon Gisland EP
I also bought Super Mario Galaxy for my parents, which despite promising to myself I wouldn't start playing til after my exams I have started
and right now I need to try and get my head round how I'm going to do and not fail my drama exams, which is kinda important as it's what I'm supposed to want to do with my life

In the -hood
There's some kind of crap
in your hair.
Young boy.
Pissing out the flame.
As he dances the music
plays, silhouetting him in the half
light of the spirit he has created, and
although he is just sitting there she
smiles
back at him
and for her this is it, this is where it
begins
a new experience
an initiation
of sorts.
A bronzed shield brushed with
burgundy,
A lamp pulsing twig limbs
all apart.
Brothers and
sisters, tugging the rope, drank
down the plug hole,
but in some kind of love.
Loft lifted out of written ropes,
rigged and fitted, doubt un-done,
beating to the heart of some
other one.

it's strange
houses at night always seem louder, this is a well established concept
but I also think houses which are your own at night seem louder,
maybe it's tied in with the idea in your brain that this isn't your house so you shouldn't be sneaking around in the dark
that coupled with you not knowing the layout
whereas at home you could do it with your eyes closed and do regularly
and cos of that things seem louder
maybe everything in my house is just quieter?

I haven't posted on here for a while: my life has been stupidly hectic
and I don't mean that in the look at me look how much stuff I have going on in my life aren't I amazing, I mean it in the oh my god my head wants to explode way
but to some extent things have settled down now, at least for this brief moment I think
I have been playing with final cut, I realised there's so much cool stuff I can do on there I just don't know about. Paddy has been helping me with this (is it wrong to want to call him paddy am I alone in this?), I want to get a video camera, I may be able to buy jo's off her
then I'll be able to start having some proper fun
if I've the time
oh yeh and I've been sort of half getting into graphic novels recently, and by this I mean I've read Persepolis and Watchmen and spent a good half an hour or so perusing the graphic novels section in Borders with Laura and today I got one of the ones out of the school libary called 'Blankets' which I am enjoying.
I reckon if I get into these then I won't have to read all the 'serious classics' I should be. Books I do really want to read but just don't feel in the right sort of mood/state of mind (all the time josh?). Plus I reckon if I go down a different cultural route I can still claim superiority to my brother. Next stop get the other Alan Moore books/see if I can nab some of the Ultimate X-Men ones that Laura's reading at the moment and is raving about
that or start reading the Sandman ones by Neil Gaiman, I'd also like to get hold of Coraline, but I have been unable to find it so far
oh and Alice recomended me Daniel Clous to look into who did Ghostworld and that other one which is better and which I think has boring in the name but I can't remember what it's called
