I'm an extremely jealous person.
Sometimes that is. Not in every aspect of life, but when i see people involved with others, and i don't like it, i can flip my shit. People have called me intimidating, and i don't see it, but whatever, i guess having people afraid to wind me up is a good thing because they won't actually do it. I like to think that i'm a chilled out guy, which i am in most cases. Everyone has those days though.
Today was pretty standard, minus one part. TAZ GAVE ME A LIFT TO UNI. Yeah, that's right, the bastard is driving now, and it's awesome. He got to mine around eleven this morning, and pulled up in his gay little Ford KA. Pretty much a hairdressers car, but still more than i have so congrats to him. He also received some great news yesterday, which i'm not going to share, but i'm extremely happy for him. We zoomed off towards uni, laughing and listening to music. I wasn't nervous at all which is a good sign that he's a natural driver! Hopefully i'll be as confident the first time i drive a car alone haha.
At uni i finished off the final mix of a song for a girl called Danni. She had a song recorded at Modern World Studios, and i ended up doing the post production on it! It's turned out great, and has been one of the more ambitious mixing challenges i've taken on, all worth it though. After that i did a bit more work on the website me and taz are making, and then headed off to work!
Work was pretty standard, a small delivery tonight! We were done by nine, so me and Dan spent the last half hour tidying up the canteen and listening to music hahah.
Got home at ten and had spaghetti and meatballs for tea. They were wonderful. Now gonna finish this and watch the last episode of the first season of Vikings! Sweeeet.

YES.
I missed ANOTHER day yesterday, with good reason! Yesterday was Taz's birthday, and for it this year we went to Bristol with James to watch Metronomy at the o2 Academy! I managed to get the day off work, which was great. We headed up together on the bus at around five, and arrived in Bristol around sixish. The gig started at seven, but Taz wasn't so bothered about seeing the support act, so we decided it was best to go and drink. Taz wanted to go to The Apple, which is a cider boat bar on the river, so off we headed!
The Apple's great, they sell locally made ciders, usually ridiculously high in alcohol percentage, for crazy low student prices. I drank "Old Bristolian" all night, which on a student price was £1 a half! And seeing as this stuff is 8.4%, a few of those got me going nicely. Once we got to the gig, at around half past eight, we slithered through the crowd to the side and settled down for the show. The band themselves were great, but unfortunately it really isn't my kind of music. I had a good time though, and so did Taz, which was the main thing!
Today was all about work again! Tuesdays are work days. I started a little later today at one, which was a bit strange, but it looks like it's going to be a permanent change, so i better not complain eh? Nothing that interesting happened at work, it was just another normal day.
Had chili con carne for dinner! Was fantastic, and smothered in cheese, which probably helped make it ten times better. Now typing this out, and afterwards i'm going to watch some more of the t.v series called "Vikings". Basically, it's about vikings funnily enough haha, but it's a great show so far, so will definitely keep up with it!

Today was a better day!
Today has been super busy! I got up this morning around eight, packed my bag for the gym, then had my light breakfast of protein and bananas. Shortly after i was picked up by Karn, who yesterday kindly offered to give me a lift down to the gym! He's becoming a really good friend t be honest, and he's one of the better people i know.
At the gym it was all about the biceps, shoulders, and chest today! I've always had skinny arms, so i superset my biceps when i work them, it seems to be the only way i can get results! There were a few newbies at the gym today too. I don't like to think of myself as a gym veteran, but i do cringe when i see new guys lift. But then again i was like that last year, so i keep my mouth shut. When ever i work out, i don't actually listen to music. I've tried it, and i find it too distracting. I start to bob my head along to whatever i'm listening too at that moment, and lose focus on the set. This raises the issue of being able to hear what others are saying in the gym. Most of the time i can tolerate it, because all the regular guys down there keep to themselves and focus on what they're doing. But there were two ass-holes there today who just wouldn't shut the fuck up. The gym is for working out, not to talk about you hurting your back when you "punched that guys lights out", you gollum fuck.
Anyway, after a quick sauna and shower, i met back up with Karn around eleven to play some pool! He beat me again, seven games to six, but it was fun all the same! He then dropped me off at uni, where i learnt about Hans Zimmer's use of samplers in Inception, and various video games. It was mildly interesting. I was also handed a Cajon at some point, which i'm borrowing for a few weeks from another guy called Matt! A Cajon is an acoustic percussion box, with a snare resting on one side to make an interesting percussive sound! I need this for the upcoming gig i have. It is the first time i will be playing solo! Yes. I AM PLAYING A GIG WITH MY OWN MUSIC. Exciting/frightening stuff!
I had work today as well, but it is my last day of work for the week, which is a bonus! The delivery shift went swiftly, and we left on time which was good!
Now writing this in bed while waiting for a video edit to bounce out on my mac. The video is part of a webseries i'm doing, which is focusing on the process of making an album! I'm having fun with it, and i'm using these videos for my final portfolio this year with uni!
Been listening to some old band stuff while writing this. There's talk that Mammoth may return soon, we shall see.

It's been a long day.
Just a quick side note! I forgot my entry yesterday! Yes, the first time it's happened... I don't really have an excuse, i was tired and plain forgot about it, simple. Yesterday wasn't that memorable of a day anyhow. I was in the studio most of the day doing percussion parts for an album that me and Taz are recording, more on this later. Also me and Dan did some dead-lifts at work, they were about the most exciting parts haha.
Today is tuesday, tuesday is my work day. I wake up, get to work by half past twelve, and slave on for eight hours! Breakfast was plain and simple, protein shake and peanut butter on toast. Karn picked me up at quarter to twelve and then we headed to work! My shift today was full of moving around parts of the store, and reorganising them to make them look "visually pleasing". I mean fucking hell, you actually think that just because I arranged some reams of paper in an interesting pyramid formation, people are more likely to buy it?!? Ridiculous notions, but still, I went ahead and did all the little things i've done today so i can earn my wage! Pay day is coming up next friday! And i can't wait to be honest, i seriously lack money at the moment...
After work i had my dinner, which was STEAK and peppercorn sauce. A real mans meal! Now i'm just writing up this quickly and looking for a new film to watch.
I realise these posts are getting shorter, this is just how they're going to be on mundane days unfortunately. I find it hard trying to make an average day interesting to read about!
I miss Jo as well, distance is hard.
While typing this out i'm listening to Cult Of Occult; I Hate You. Cult are a doom/sludge/stoner band, and are a recent discovery of mine thanks to my friend Ross! Really going through a doom stage at the moment, so much so that me and Ross are planning something epic! Again, more on that later...

Another lazy sunday!
Today was the day of the dreaded staff meeting, so obviously i spent as much of the day as i could in bed avoiding the prospect of that. I eventually got up at eleven. Had a relatively small breakfast of a protein shake, and a banana. Didn't need much else due to the lack of energy i needed haha. I milled around tidying my room, and doing other things that seemed to be reserved or sundays. You know, doing your laundry, dusting, listening to music, playing guitar, the usual stuff. Then made myself epic chicken and mayo sandwiches! They were so good that I felt dirty afterwords.
After the afternoons antics I headed in to work for the staff meeting. It was the first time i've been to one for about a year, and it was as boring as I was expecting... We all sat around a whiteboard to get a gay ass presentation from our CPC specialist. Sorry if your reading Luke, but it was shit mate, up your game. After the meeting though me, Karn, and Mikey headed down to All Stars to play some pool!
Now when you bring Mikey along to play pool, you expect him to be on the table most of the night, and maybe get a cheeky win over him every now and then. NOPE. Tonight Mikey decided to play like a fucking monster, but seeing as his cup final is coming up on saturday i can let him off. I did beat him once mind, after some tricky shots, and lucky covering shots haha. Karn won one game i think, but to be honest he did mainly play Mikey all night. We finished the session with a few rounds of killer, which was great fun! Definitely go down as the three of us again soon hopefully!
Got home, had dinner, now typing this up while listening to Mumford & Sons' second album; Babel. LOVE this band, they're sort of my guilty pleasure. I saw them in London last year with Jo, and it's one of the best gigs i've been to so far! This bands first album really captured my imagination when I was younger, this one was definitely not a disappointment when it was finally released!
It's back to work tomorrow, but after a day in the studio with Iain Eccleston and The Blue Horizon guys! Will give details tomorrow!

TODAY WAS FUN.
I feel like today was actually a fucking good one, and i'm in such a good mood this evening because of it!! Managed to get my ass out of bed this morning and get to the gym before uni! It was back, triceps, and LEGS day. I hate leg days. Legs are one of those things where you have to do them, otherwise the top of your body can get all swole, and the bottom can look like match sticks. I have thin arms and legs anyway, so skipping leg day is a huge no no. I had a banana and a protein shake for breakfast, then made myself some lunch to eat at uni.
Got to the gym at around one, got changed and began the onslaught. Did supersets on the back, and then moved on to the triceps, before finishing on legs. Spent a good ten minutes stretching out at the end which helped me last the rest of the day I think haha! Hit the showers (didn't have time for the sauna today!!) and then headed to the bus stop to get to uni!
I saw Taz, Adam, and Reuben when I got off the bus so I walked in with them. Once I was sat down and demolishing my chicken and mayo sandwich the lecture kicked up. This week it was creating music for video games, something that didn't really interest me that much. The final part was interesting, about placing sound in a 3D field, and being able to move around a sound to affect it's volume and stereo position! Apart from that though it was a real mind numbing hour. At the end of the lecture I got my marks for last terms work! All 2:1's, which i'm extremely happy with, and sets me up for good overall mark at the end of this year!
Had work today as well, and it was actually the most fun part of the day!! Four pallets were delivered for me and Dan to work on, which is a tiny delivery! We took it easy, finished well within time, and decided to set a challenge for ourselves. Dan is also a fitness nut, prides himself on his strength and overall manliness, so it's a shame that I BEAT HIM AGAIN. YEAH BOY, I KNOW YOU'RE READING THIS, AND I KNOW YOU CAN'T STAND THE FACT I WON. HAHAHAHAHAHA. But yeah, on our tidy up this evening we decided to do ten pushups at the end of every aisle. This was a total of one hundred and sixty pushups, in bursts of ten. Sounds relatively easy right? NOPE. Towards the end, we decided to do a special set of military style knuckle pushups. It was here that dan failed, and I was victorious! There's always next week eh Dan?
Got home at ten, had some ribs for dinner, and compiled together a bunch of music for mine and Taz's radio show tomorrow night! For the rest of the night i'm thinking of sticking a film on in bed, we'll see!
While writing this entry I was listening too Peace; 1998. If psychedelic delays, sixties style vocals, and crunchy drums are your thing check these guys out! They got pretty big last year, and have kind of faded from the public eye, but this tune has one of the best build sections I know of in music, so HIGHLY recommended!!

Another long day!
And another run of the mill one. I ADMIT IT, I was lazy today and didn't actually go to the gym... SADFACE. All that means is that I have to go two days in a row which will cause my body all sorts of pain, due to the intensity of said workouts. BUT MEH. I got up around half ten this morning, had a strange breakfast of ham and chili cream cheese sandwiches. It actually tasted quite good! Then it was the usual shower etc, but I was lazy and didn't do anything with my hair so I had the biggest cow lick all day ahahah.
Got to the bus stop at twenty past eleven, got on to the bus at half past. Pretty standard commute today, nothing funny or interesting really happened! Saw a girl I thought I recognised, but I think she just looked like someone I know. I can't really go up to women in public places and ask "HEY, do I know you!??!", especially in an environment as cramped as a bus... She was wearing a denim jacket and had snow boots on, no idea why she's so vivid in my mind, and to be honest I don't really care. Made my usual walk to work and got there at about twenty past twelve! And then the LOOOOONG day started.
I work eight hours on tuesdays, with only one break usually. If i'm cheeky I can take three, but there are so few people in the store staff wise I don't really feel like I can. I did today though, mwahahah. Was annoying Gabby all day today, she obviously didn't care too much though due to her giving me her popcorn chicken again. THE SUPPLIER OF PROTEIN FOR ME AT WORK IS GABBY. Amazing.
Once I was home from the evil shift, I had my dinner and then did my metal radio show! It was awesome to do, even though I only had one listener at the end haha! Will be doing a joint one with Taz this thursday before we head out into town! Should be fun, and a real eclectic mix of music!! Now i'm just writing this out and trying to decide what I should do for the rest of the night. I came up with a new song idea earlier so I may work on that until I pass out!
Was listening to Bon Iver's first album; For Emma, Forever Ago while typing this! One of my all time favourite albums, and Justin Vernon, to this day, remains one of my largest influences in life and music. Going to spend the next few days listening to the discog of Bon Iver I think!

Today was tiring.
Getting up and going after a weekend of not sleeping much is a lot harder than you might think. I mean, I didn't even have a lack of sleep over the last few days, i'm just feeling really tired! I managed to get out of bed around ten o'clock this morning though, had a huge breakfast of eggs and protein shakes before doing my bit of stretching/yoga to wake up the body, then have my usual forty minute monday shower! Hugely easy morning haha!
Had a few missed calls off my friend Karn who I work with talking about all sorts of pool plans! So after lunch, he came to pick me up about two in the afternoon to head to All Stars sports bar! This was the first time I got to try out my dads old cue that he gave me yesterday, and I wasn't disappointed to be honest! The things over twenty years old, and the main joining pin is wooden which apparently isn't that popular of a choice these days. After a bit of internet searching i've found that this style of cue is heavily used in a billiards game called carom! Not commonly played in the UK, but is popular in the middle east etc. Either way, the cue was great, but didn't quite give me the edge over Karn! He beat me today 9 frames to 7 if I remember correctly! We'll be back next monday though to see if I can kick his ass haha.
After the pool it was time for work, WOO! I work in the local Staples branch and, to be honest, I can't really complain all that much. I work delivery shifts mainly, so it's physical work, but it helps to move the time along faster. On these shifts I usually work with the same group of people, Dan, Gabby, Sam, Sally etc. And due to us all getting on, the shifts go easily and we always finish on time. UNLESS we spend an hour opening up twenty packs of Pepsi Max cans, before the guy who told us to do it says he actually made a mistake and we SHOULDN'T have done it... Great hour wasted there!
I finished work tonight at half nine as usual, then headed home for my home cooked tea by my mum. I haven't actually mentioned my home life yet so i'll give a brief overview. I live at home with my mum and my older sister. My dad walked out when I was twelve I think, i'm not exactly sure on the year so i'll say this age because I had just started secondary school. He left to go off with another woman, who he is now happily married too and has two beautiful children with, my half brother Sebastian, and my half sister Isabella. I held him leaving against him for a long time, but when I reached the age of seventeen I sort of realised that I only get one dad, and even though he went about his actions in the completely wrong way, he did what was right for him. Obviously my relationship with my dad is nowhere near as close as the relationship I have with my mum. I'm a mummy's boy really, always will be! I love my mum just like every non bastard child does, and i'm lucky enough to always have her listen, support, and care for me. My sister is twenty four and still living at home. She'll still be here when she's thirty at this rate, but I still love the slag and will always look after her!
After my dinner I didn't really do much. I lazed around downstairs playing Mario Tennis Open on my 3DSxl, and now have just got in to bed to type this shit out and watch the new 300 film online! My late evening is definitely sorted!
Early start tomorrow, hit the gym at ten before heading off to work all day at half twelve! And then i'm gonna attempt my second radio show! This one's gonna be fucking heavy i'm telling you haha!
No music AGAIN tonight, sat in bed on my laptop so not really a surprise there seeming as i don't keep my music on here! Oh well...

After the pool it was time for work, WOO! I work in the local Staples branch and, to be honest, I can't really complain all that much. I work delivery shifts mainly, so it's physical work, but it helps to move the time along faster. On these shifts I usually work with the same group of people, Dan, Gabby, Sam, Sally etc. And due to us all getting on, the shifts go easily and we always finish on time. UNLESS we spend an hour opening up twenty packs of Pepsi Max cans, before the guy who told us to do it says he actually made a mistake and we SHOULDN'T have done it... Great hour wasted there!
I finished work tonight at half nine as usual, then headed home for my home cooked tea by my mum. I haven't actually mentioned my home life yet so i'll give a brief overview. I live at home with my mum and my older sister. My dad walked out when I was twelve I think, i'm not exactly sure on the year so i'll say this age because I had just started secondary school. He left to go off with another woman, who he is now happily married too and has two beautiful children with, my half brother Sebastian, and my half sister Isabella. I held him leaving against him for a long time, but when I reached the age of seventeen I sort of realised that I only get one dad, and even though he went about his actions in the completely wrong way, he did what was right for him. Obviously my relationship with my dad is nowhere near as close as the relationship I have with my mum. I'm a mummy's boy really, always will be! I love my mum just like every non bastard child does, and i'm lucky enough to always have her listen, support, and care for me. My sister is twenty four and still living at home. She'll still be here when she's thirty at this rate, but I still love the slag and will always look after her!
After my dinner I didn't really do much. I lazed around downstairs playing Mario Tennis Open on my 3DSxl, and now have just got in to bed to type this shit out and watch the new 300 film online! My late evening is definitely sorted!
Early start tomorrow, hit the gym at ten before heading off to work all day at half twelve! And then i'm gonna attempt my second radio show! This one's gonna be fucking heavy i'm telling you haha!
No music AGAIN tonight, sat in bed on my laptop so not really a surprise there seeming as i don't keep my music on here! Oh well...
