Today I am happy! I was in a record store in Manchester earlier and I found this! It's my favourite album of 2013, which is kind of a big deal in itself because I generally don't list to albums. I love songs from albums but rarely love the whole album.
Not only have they got the best band name, they've got some immense records. Check...

I can't believe it's like the second week of November already?! This year has flown by!
The other thing that has surprised me is that I've only just discovered 'Pennywise's self titled album. It's like 23 years old, I heard 'Bro Song' over the weekend! (I'm pretty sure I've heard it at hockey before but never thought it was pennywise...)
It's pretty much been on...

I'm quite excited for this weekend. Friday is hallowe'en! Hallowe'en is Friday! Finkle is Einhorn!
It's going to be a more toned down affair this year. Last year's Hallowe'en was spent in Manchester getting more than a little bit drunk.
We ended up in a place called Satan's Hollow and I didn't get home till about 5am...? It started off as "just a couple" and...

I FINALLY GET TO PLAY THIS!! ^___^
I studied media years ago, I know all about codes and conventions of films. I basically ruined my cinematic life forever. So I don't find any horror films scary, they're all predictable as hell. I like watching them but I never lose any sleep over them, they're never scary.
Video games though - nope, nope, nope. You get

I love autumn ^_^
It's weird considering it's a season of death and decay but Halloween! And rain! There's been so much sun this summer. I have a beard for a reason - to protect from the cold, that and I can't be assed shaving, I look twelve.
I'm getting into my post-hardcore shit musically, if anyone has any suggestions for bands, let me know...

How does everyone decide on the tattoo they're going to get? Would you get them to represent a moment, like bookmarks in your life? Just because it's cool? Any other reason?
I got one last year, it was slightly impulsive but it also marked a moment in life. And I quite like that idea, that whatever I'll get is representative of who I am now.
I'm feeling antsy. I get bored quite easily and I need to have my mind blown on a regular basis to hold on to any semblance of sanity. Usually music does it, I love finding one of those records that just absolutely kills you, every single time you listen to it. When I was younger I had my writing to fall into, however, a lack...

My Japanese is coming along. I'm starting to ask questions, or form basic sentences. It blows my mind on a regular basis that I can look at something like 「東京をあいしてる」(I love Tokyo) and I'm able to read it. My greatest tool is currently - 'book' 日本語でなんですか "what is 'book' in Japanese?" Fuck yeh!
I'm quite proud of myself ^_^
I managed to buy myself a...

Why can't I stop listening to this?!
