I've no doubt forced my music upon many of you already, but my band (Forts) have a fairly humble gig booked for the 28th March. If any of you are interested in coming just drop me a line or something. I'll also be playing some songs on newcastle student radio at anytime between 7pm-8pm ( Read more... )

Watch Dexter you mindless cretins, it's really rather good. It's on ITV though so it involves overcoming a certain amount of disgust as you change the channel...unless of course you were one of those poor souls who actually watched ITV before this was on, you have my pity.

Those lovely fantastic bastards at Newcastle university decided to send me two unconditional offers in the post today, one for Linguistics with Japanese and one for English Language. They aren't my first choices but i cannot fully convey the immense relief it is to recieve two unconditional offers and know that whatever happens, i'm definitely ( Read more... )

Yeah, so...my life's shit. I was sitting in class today and the teacher (facist) started rubbing the board down. The words just , like, dissapeared. It was like he was killing the words, all of the beautiful letters, it was...like they had never even been written at all. It was literary fucking genocide.

Louise: i taped the first two episodes of torchwood if you still need/want them. Let me know.

My stupid phone has decided to stop working....well, the phone itself works but the only key which actually does anything is the on/off key. I'm infuriated as i want to go out tonight but i can't get in touch with Georgina (as i can't access her number) and if she rings me she won't get a response. If any joseys people read this with my home no. ( Read more... )

I'm no longer definitely doing General Engineering at Uni...it's now a toss-up between that, astrophysics, aeronautics, renewable energy/engineering, physics/engineering and architecture. I think that's all of them.

Bah, ucas is incredibly frustrating.

I felt like watching Star Wars Episode 1 this evening, and so i did. It isn't nearly as bad as everyone makes it out to be. I mean, aside from the milky bar kid in the lead role (i curse the name Jake Loyd)...and, er, the least funny comedy turn since the Ewoks...not to mention the sometimes laughably poor dialogue, mostly delivered by the ( Read more... )

I've decided to lunge out of my livejournal lethargy to heartily recommend to all you hoes (yes, the gardening implement) a rather special film that i have just returned from watching. The film in question is "Children Of Men" and in my opinion it was really quite good ( Read more... )
