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
