8 Megapixel Camera - endorsed by some Germans. Can't be bad. DivX video support as standard. Dolby Sound somehow. Man it's nice.
Real nice.

So I mentioned in my last blog that I was thinking about getting my first ink soon. Well I was trawling Google for images and I found just about the perfect thing. What's even more amazing is this design is actually part of some kind of awesome light box that I really really want. Unfortunately they only deliver to US and Canada. Sucks. Either way here's the design.

Awesome right? The question is of course, do I get just the outline or do I go full shading? It'd probably take a fucking age to finish something like that. Ahh I just dunno if I've got the patience. I know I've got the pain threshold but the patience? Not so sure. I really fancy some toast right about now. I've been eating fried rice all night. I mean, don't get me wrong it's lush but I need some bread up in this bitch. It's been an interesting night on facebook to say the least. All fun and games with Lav and J and some sound lads I don't know. Real nice. Right now I'm watching The Killers on Jools Holland and wondering when Tom is getting back. AH WELL. Gonna go get a drink and think about going to bed. But I don't think I'll manage that for an hour or two. Act right before you get smacked right or some other suitable gangster shit, PEEEACE. x

HELLO INTERNET.
So much talk lately of university and futures and plans. I just wanna concentrate on living right now. We'll deal with all that shit later. I want this weather to hold out and I wanna do stuff starting next Thursday thanks to this: Reaaal nice.

Yeah that's a cheque for £2714.26. Not bad for 0 days work. Anyway did you know that in Scandinavia they cash cheques the same day? None of this 5 working days shit over there. No sir. Lets all move to Norway now please? Anyway, Scandinavian relocation dreams aside, what have I been doing with myself lately?

I went to Liverpool yesterday. I was meant to be visiting a school friend ... well, that's not exactly how it went down. He went to the rugby with Steve, I stayed at his place and got pissed up and spliffed up with his housemates, cos you know, what else are you gonna do with your weekend? Spent £65 for 9 hours on trains and one hectic night in Liverpool. Was it worth it? Course it fucking was. ANYWAY i took photos. Some good, some not as good. whatever.

That's about all I got. I did an album on facebook of the journey home. One of my favourite photo collections I've taken in a while. Go take a look for it over there if you fancy it. It'll probably end up on here sometime soon anyway. How the hell is it nearly 1 already? Fml I'm so bad at doing stuff. But all that will change I swear. We've got plans (I know I know) but this is gonna be good. Finally gonna see Rachel again, it's been far too long, and we'll hit cineworld and do other stuff I would think. 31st that is. You're welcome to come down if you know who and where we are. I'm sure it'll be real nice.

I'm gonna head home in the easter holidays, probably around the 6th or something. Gonna be good to see my boys again. Not a clue where I'll be staying but that's the beauty of it. It's gonna be a messy few days I can predict that much. I think James is coming down for a few days before then, and we'll have some kind of easter celebration. Jamie if you read this you should come too!! It'll be a laugh as always. Whatever happens i'm looking forward to easter. Just need a break from college you know. I wanna see people outside of college more, and if the weather is cool all easter I reckon i'll be doing that a fair bit.

Other news from the world of me: I've just about decided on a design for my first ink, I'm thinking an anatomical heart, s'gonna be real nice. you wait and see. Gonna go watch Skins on the repeat and have a think about what to spend my money on. Any suggestions you just let me know.

We're stubborn and melodramatic

I haven't posted for real in a while so here I am. I've been doing a lot of my work on alternate sites lately. You might wanna check em out if you aren't there already; twitter.com (search 'AKDB'), plinky.com, plurk.com, weebly.com, tumblr.com (I don't really get tumblr yet. I'll figure it out if I can be bothered. Looks fun though.) - all pretty much concerned with getting out there on the internet. making friends, being connected, finding things that you share with other people. This has been my whole life this weekend really. After the disappointment of not getting to do anything with J and Dave I retreated to the (relative) safety of the internet and took a look at what it had to offer. And the answer is a lot! If you're willing to put the time in. je t'aime l'internet.

This guy is my hero. Yay for DickVanDyke!!

I got a pretty much unconditional offer from LSBU last week. If Zoe reads this, I'd appreciate your advice here on what to do because like ... I would love to live in London. I want all this ...

But I'd much rather do scriptwriting than Film Studies. I just don't know what to do. If anyone has any opinions or reasons why one place would be better than the other I'm all ears. I mean, I know it's my decision in the end but at the minute I don't really favour either place over the other. Bright lights and city streets beckon, but so does the sea and the south coast. I just don't know. HELP MEEE!!

Elsewhere in my life I got some total money worries. Man i don't know if I'm gonna be able to pay my rent this month. Sucks. I'm pretty much relying on Steve (twitter.com/stevwhite) to be my dad and pay for my food and everything. Haha he's the best cousin I could ever have quite honestly. Don't ever tell him I said so but I love him to bits. I'm sure things'll be fine. They have a tendency to work out. Fingers crossed anyway.

I been on webcam with my girl a lot lately. It's awesome but it reminds me about the distance between us which sucks. In the spirit of this post however, I am optimistic about us. Can't help feeling like we were kinda made for each other - even though I hate that freakin cliché. Anyway ... exciting times!

I feel like writing something, maybe writing for somebody. It'd be nice to have a writing job. I've been writing a few random scenes this weekend. not for anything in particular, just for something to do mainly. It's fun though. Not a lot of people would agree but hey. Horses, courses, strokes and folks. All that jazz. I got a few e-mails from people regarding our Lina assignment, the freelance one. They might turn into real contacts who knows? I'd love to be a videographer for a snowboarding company. Even a photographer. It'd be the best thing.

That's pretty much all that's going on with me right now. I'll let you get on. Fire alarm's going off and everything shiiiittttttt I'm done! X x

PhotobucketRUSTY SAYS: "Yoyoyoyoyo s'up! Haven't been around for a while but that's ok. I was asleep. But now the sun is out and I did a big bear yawn and I'm awake like rraaggh. Oooh I'm looking forward to moving to London. There's a big bear community there. Bournemouth? Not so much. Right, I'm gonna crack open the Coors and relax outside. How are you spending your days in the sun kids? Rusty out! ROOOAAAGHH!!"

Road-trip Mix Tape - courtesy of plinky ^_~

Author: Aaron KD Bourn /

Plinky asked me for three songs that I'd put on a road trip mix tape. These are the 3 that I chose after much deliberation. If you haven't heard any of them then what are you waiting for?! Go find them. In other news: Follow me on twitter to find out lol :P

A Decade Under the Influence by Taking Back Sunday

It even has the words 'long drive home' in it. Plus I love this song. Plus I love this band. Just stick it on the mixtape christ.

Come Pick Me Up by Ryan Adams

You know the film Elizabethtown? I <3 that film and this is my favourite song from it. It's a lot about driving too so hey that's like 2 in 1? Yes'm.

Passenger Seat by Death Cab for Cutie

It's a song about driving. Plus it's a beautiful song. Just put it on when you're in the car with someone you love, roll the window down and breathe it in. SO good.

I love these tracks ... so does MTV ^_^

Hello and welcome to the songs that I like that are soooo mainstream. Sometimes I like a bit of a mainstream singalong. So shoot me.

Sex on Fire by Kings of Leon

March with Colleen and Fraser. Need I say more. OOOOOOOHHHHHH YOUR SEX IS ON FIIIIIIIRE!!

Shake It by Metro Station

Heard it pretty much non-stop for the past month or so. Patrick hates it and I love it. Infectious whispery pop-punk i don't even know.

I am using a new service as you can see called 'Plinky' at plinky.com It is pretty damn good I would advise getting your act together and getting in on it. Pretty damn good. It can post straight to other services ... which seems to have happened here. YAY!

Don't take it for granted

This is the first half of my day in pictures. I went out around Cambridge with the camera because they were doing viewings at my place. I hate being there when people are looking around it so I left. Steve and Tom were still in bed when I went. Many lolz ensued. So yeah.

Ok so from left to right, top to bottom, you know what I mean;
1. It was sunny, I like reflections in water - this is one of the boathouses along the river; 2. One of my favourite Cambridge views, symmetry is a personal fave; 3. Some ducks chilling out in the early morning sun. They knew what was what; 4. My favourite tree in the world, it has some relevance to Isaac Newton but I'm not sure what that is exactly; 5. One of the colleges from the backs - it could be Clare's, at this point i wasn't too sure where exactly i was; 6. Me lost; 7. I found some water with a lovely reflection so i took a photo yay; 8. I has no money - poor time :( 9. Fig and almond danish - mmmmm i think maybe my new favourite thing soooo good. So good; 10. I want one of these watches! Super kuwaii ^_^ 11 and 12. Taking in the Watchmen section at Borders, the book on the right was super cool, a book of portraits of the cast/characters - pity it was £35; 13. Resi Evil 5 getting a midnight release at Game, that one's for you J; 14. Steve still in bed when I got back. Poor showing.

So that was that then. Damn good times. For free! ... Now i'm waiting around to see if me, Dave and J are gonna go do anything tonight. WHO KNOWS EH? something might happen but then again might not. Ahhh right ok well i'd better go and see what is indeed what. Hope you enjoyed a glimpse into my dull life ^_^ I'm done. X x
