better late than ever

blimey so go the great intentions of updating daily


still inspired by easy broadband access and a slew of amazing blogs providing my daily web reading, feel the great urge to do my little bit of a copy cat, there's that saying about imitation being the sincerest form of flattery, that's what I'm gonna keep telling myself anyway

quick run down on a not hugely eventful day in the world of me

~taking full of advantage of my late move into bitorent, of course i'm only downloading copyright free stuff

~really liking the hustle on the beeb, shame its the last one really, might have to get the dvd, sad and shameful as it might seem

~digging some fine german pop, Wir sind Helden: par exemple especially recommended comes their track auriele which bares more than a passing resemblance to a certain urban poet whose name might or might rhyme with dyke swimmer

~dolly parton 9 to 5, i'm not gay or owt but quality track, might make a few appearances when i making those summer mix tape or two

~am i the only one expecting a daphne and celeste renaisence sometime soon... i've not joined their fanclub but in case you fancy it

~and a thought to leave you with LCD soundsystem unacceptable hipster-ism or admirable double-irony-type-stuff?

oooohhhh i hate flash

with the deadline for my animation nearing i have been pulling out hair left right and centre
still looks like its done
its hardly finding nemo...
but i'm far from the most artistic when it comes to drawing and the like

been a hectic few days since last post
seems like a new house is needed for next year in brighton
and some new housemates

still seems like might not be end of the world
looking forward to the possibility of some housemates who can inspire and maybe collabarate with me on stuff
which would be pretty cool

laterly i have been loving the music provided by www.newflux.blogspot.com
well worthy of daily checks, makes me wish i had sodding broadband

home sweet home

a quick drive through the backwaters of sussex and surrey and i'm home
where hot water is plentiful, the fridge is never empty and i can have milk in my tea without fear of disentry...

all is good, so a few quiet days at home to ctahc up on some reading and to listen to xfm,

it really seems an extravagence to buy a dab radio so i can listen in brighton, but each time i hear the station it gets harder and harder not to buy one

at the moment thinking of going for a alarm clock dab thingymajig, the reasoning behind this is that at least then i can justify to myself buying one, even though it would prob be one of the most expensive alarms clocks about

anyhow rather cheerful today cause a few kind people have expressed an interest in maybe some experience

of course nothing concrete as yet, but nothing better than an email saying 'tell us about yourself' especial if you're as vain as me.....

blimey

i have been a bit lax havent i

this sites been up a while and i not really been making use of it
well after a plethora (or however its spelt) of personal shit its about time got my life in order right?

well a quick update on wahsts going on in kelvin-ville

about to knock up an article for uni paper about my star studded visit to the nme awards aftershow, where me one or two celebs and all the other music industry liggers of note qued for hours for bottle of carling, i mean really carling is bad enough but bottles
its just a bit of a joke


my flash animation course is starting to get pretty heavy, its getting to the moment of truth whether my own dreams of a brass eye style animations with gary glitter as a peado/fairytale bad guy is worth the possibility of a examiner backlash, i just don't have that true revoluntary spirit do i?

still the dj-ing is going well had a few weeks off, but can't wait to get back and it means the kids might have caught up enough to let me play NERD now....

bless them i love the way they go mental just sometimes i wish they'd be a bit more open minded still c'est la vie as someone french once said

first day back

was first day back at uni yesterday

and it all went wrong, my first seminar cancelled, then i thought i'll go do some work in the library, but the search thing was down

could it get any worse...

still today looks like it could be better, hopefully

moyles isnt bad, just ringing up the chappel where britney got married, but its just a madeup feature thats disappointing

still better than coxy

houston we seem to be ok

well my first post is up and the look isnt to bad again. just working on getting my website from my pc to my mac, a slightly late new years resolution; don't get double up on stuff, my rooms too tiny for all my stuff before i have two computers in it.

still uni starts tomorrow, and with it my first seminar on radio, could be good, learn how i should be doing it rather than how i am.

seeing as i'm telling of whats coming up, in not to long hope is there will be a new secondhandtoys cd, a six track 50 copies cd-r. it'll be a bit like an invite only gig but a cd, i'll give it to those i think deserve a copy and those who ask nicely, as yet no acts are set in stone, we'll just have to wait and see i spose

oh and i'm listening to a radio 2 special on joseph and his technicolour dream coat who says i'm not rock and roll
