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.

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

RUSTY 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!!"

"Hmm. Well hello everyone. Rusty the Kodiak Bear here. Looks like I'll be taking care of this one. I saw an interesting show last night about Bears. Well it was about Salmon technically but there were bears there, eating the Salmon. It made me miss home a little bit. I don't know what Aaron is doing but he seems sad. He has been listening to this one song a lot. I think he is going out tonight though so hopefully he will be happier with his friends. It's not very nice to feel alone. rooaagh. *sadbearfase*"

@Joseph: AGREED.

This snow. This frozen hell water. Man. It was fun before, now it's just annoying. I hate slipping it's the worst. I also hate turning up to college when it finally does decide to open, only to spend twenty minutes there with ONE OTHER PERSON!! (admittedly she was a lovely person. OR SHOULD THAT BE LIVLY?? (lol)) And then get told that college had to close for safety reasons! FUCK. The brief amount of Key Skills I experienced was actually quite a laugh. Anthony Kila is a hero. All we did was listen to Bob Marley and sit around. Three Little Birds ftw.
What an actual pointless week this has been. 3 days of college, 2 cancelled, 1 skipped by me and everyone else. Fucking queef. AND to make matters worse, Tom crashed his car on the way to pick me up!! Nothing too bad, just a ding and an exchange of details but still. Bummed. And it's still snowing. Sideways. MAN. Earlier it was ridiculous. I couldn't even see when I went out it was snowing so heavy. I guess you could call it a WHITEOUT. That's not a pun, that's actually a thing. I don't know what I was going for there. SO we came home. It took an age because the traffic was moving so slow. People were having fun though, and why not? SNOW DAY WAH. fml.

Oh yeah also, I was interested to read Narayan's blog yesterday. I was very happy to hear from him, I thought it was perhaps the lack of wireless in Prague that messed him up and indeed this was the case. But anyway, it was nice. Also nice (not nice but ... reassuring? I dunno) is the fact that Prague isn't all it wasn't cracked up to be. Still, I hate it when I miss out on in-jokes, seeing as in-jokes are one of my very favourite things. Meh oh well. I have a feeling that friendships may change ever-so-slightly after Prague, not just between the people that went, but between them and the people who didn't. For example, why do I feel so close to Narayan all of a sudden??! Jeez sorry man. He is a very inspiring person though. I mean, Narayan is someone i think who can do anything that he wants, and succeed at it, and that is just very inspiring is all. It's still snowing.

Someday soon I will do one of the things I've wanted to do for a long time. And what that thing is is to buy lots of Japanese food from our favourite multi-national supermarket chain, and attempt to cook and eat it with no idea what exactly it is. I spotted some prime targets today including AYAZAKI BBQ UDON and TATAYA BEARS. I especially like the idea of Tataya bears, whatever they turn out to be. i hope it's not real bears because that would be cruel. I like bears. Especially those ones that are the biggest ... Kodiak bears maybe? hold on. Yeah Kodiak bears. Man i love those guys. I wish i had a friend who was a bear, like on Altered Beast you know? It'd be cool to hang with a bear i think, and his big bear arms, like 'ROOOAAGGHH get out of it!!' that's what he'd be like. I'd call him Rusty, or maybe Dusty? I dunno.

Rusty: "Awright?"
Me: "It's still snowing!"
Rusty: "Bloody hell. ROOOAAAGHHH!!"

If you've ever seen Fast and The Furious: Tokyo Drift then you'll know it has a super kuwaiii soundtrack, which is always important for pleasing the Japanese fanboys and fangurls ^_^ but yes (Man this is becoming a very Japan-centric post. Sorry about that everyone) Tom downloaded the soundtrack yesterday and it's become a fast favourite in the car. The Teriyaki Boyz stuff on that album is ridiculous, but also good at the same time! Especially the first track good heavens! Here is a link to their website, in Japanese of course I think you may enjoy it, they do a lot of work with Pharrell Williams too. Go Japan!
