It's quite funny really

how I can be so happy and so sad at the same time. I guess it's a little easier for my mind to combine both of the emotions rather than take the strain either one of them provides in mass. Also, I think I'm only feeling the happiness/love at the minute because I'm listening to Noah and The Whale and the climax of Blue Skies just played. It's strange how music can make you feel happy if you're upset or down when you're up. I wish I could make music that would cheer people up, I wish I could make music that would make people feel sad as well actually. I think I do make music that pisses people off though - mainly when I'm sitting around drunkenly strumming my guitar. When I'm alone and nobody else is around, it sounds awesome though. See now another song has come on (Modern Man - Arcade Fire) and I feel all chilled out and relaxed, maybe a bit tired. Which will probably slow down the progress of this writing, and I won't finish it for ages. Unless some Oasis comes on or some Professor Green gets me motivated. Not literally him, just his music - although if he's offering I wouldn't mind a little 1-to-1 motivational speech from him.

Anyway in a previous blog I mentioned how I was going to the Safari Park! Well tomorrow (Wednesday 23rd Feb) is the big day, it's also my Dad's birthday. I have foolishly accepted a challenge within which I have to take a picture of myself with every animal I can find or legally get near. I probably won't do it, although I'm certain I will. It depends how distracted I am by animals that are fornicating. This week hasn't been too bad altogether so far. My friends are off from school so there are more people around to chat to or play xbox with. My nan is making good progress in her recovery too, god bless her. Thursday night is definitely going to be Lionel Messi though. Involving a heavy pre-drinks sessions with various spirits and lagers. Followed by a few cheeky pints and cocktails then a skaaaaaaaaaank in Trinoooo. That's my excitement out the way for a couple of days. Can somebody tell me why the event on a Thursday night there is always called Misbehaviour? I never get there and see people copying out of text books rather than working out the answers, and I never see anybody on their phones under the tables rather than writing out their lines in a C5 detention. It's not a bad name however, I just don't see much misbehaving going on. What else am I doing this week you ask? Well I want to go into Birmingham or somewhere better for a spot of shopping, but nobody else seems to want to at the minute so I'll probably wait around for a few weeks or so. That's about it guys.

I have had a MASSIVE craving recently, I really want to just play with Lego. Just create a random house or building, (Pyramids were my speciality when I was younger). I could sit and play with Lego for hours now if somebody gave me some! I think I could build something similar to the one in the picture to my right if I had the right equipment (and maybe the instructions). I sound like a really boring person don't I, shame. This craving came from watching Ed Sheeran making a Lego house on Ustream when somebody gave him it as a birthday present. I wasn't just sitting watching by the way, somebody sent me the link and informed me if he gets to 100 viewers he was going to play a new song of his. So I decided to join the gang and I wished him happy birthday too, considering it was his day of birth and all. Fair play to him though, he actually replied and chatted to a lot of the people on there, which is more than can be said for some of the music artists who use it. The main reason for that though is probably because he isn't really that famous (no offense intended), I just mean there aren't 1000s of fans dying for him just to say hey to them, or tell them he likes their display picture portraying some sweaty cleavage. One day though Ed, one day.

I've been on a Liam Gallagher craze again recently, I watched a video he was in the other day and he said something along the lines of "wearing a Parka is fucking top, you put it on and walk down the road and you feel like you're going to fucking war or something". I loved that sentence so much I sat back and listened to him saying it about 30 times. But he does have a point, any lad who has a big coat (not neccesarily a Parka) knows the feeling. He also told the story of his first Parka - a yellow Yves Saint Lauren wonder that his nan stole from the back of a shop she used to work in. I wish that was my story more than anything.

Beady Eye seem to be quite a controversial upcoming band at the minute as well, but considering the band contains Liam Gallagher there is bound to be a massive amount of hate and love from it either way. I personally think they're good, people need to shy away from the obvious assumption that he's trying to recreate Oasis because there isn't any chance of that. The music only bloody sounds the same because it's the exact same vocals. Not sure on his new hair cut though, I say new, it looks as if he's just had it chemically straightened and he spruces it up a bit when he's around in public. Still the old long top sideboards look. That's all I have to say for myself for now kids. Bye.
