So, I saved 5 by not going out today and hopefully will be able to save myself a few quid by getting a lift up north on Friday.

Bad news is that my dad isn't certain he has any work for me!! This highly pisses me off as before he went on holiday he said he had a big job to start on Monday. Looks...

The money troubles continue -

Down to my last 15 in cash, and I'm spending 5 of it to go to do some song writing tommorow. Hopefully I'll be back in Manchester by Monday though and will get to earn some more money. I've got 130 minimum coming in from a job and am hoping to get at least 400 (I'm hoping for 500) for...

why can't I get to sleep? It's so annoying 'cos it means I sleep until mid-day and miss things I have to do. I still have to take in my letter from the hospital, will be done tommorow as I need a break from all this music.

I finished my first song yesterday, I've never written a full track before and it feels great to...

So, bad news - I got a letter from uni saying that my appeal (against the decision to not allow me to late submit some work in the autumn term) has been rejected due to me not giving any further evidence to support my claims of hearing loss and tinnitus. I have until Weds/Thurs to get more evidence to them.

Good news - The doctors...

Uni results are out!! Woohoo!! Not got my final overall grade but it looks like it'll be a good result!! I got a 1st on my final project!! That made me so happy, I only got a 2:2 for my dissertation but being 2,000 words below the minimum makes that a pretty good result!!!

With that sorted I'm on the lookout for any job I...

This journal entry is going to be train of thought so don't worry if I sound crazy!!

So, it seems that according to my BMI I am obese. That was a shock, I thought the heavy end of overweight but I'm not even close to that!!

From tommorow starts my more exercise-less shitty food weight loss plan. I'll be sticking to vodka as my only...

Ok, today was a rather bad day all round. I missed my hospital appointment 'cos of the busses, found out my metal band has lost it's singer and had to phone my dad and ask if I could live with him next week with 'her' while I earn some money for manual labour. She annoys me after 5mins with her, let alone a whole week!!...

So, I ended up getting no sleep last night. Early night tonight to make up for it.

Although I did start recording an awesome cover of KSE's "The End of Heartache" it's an amazing song and I've amazed myself at how well it turned out for just an hour or so's work, and that includes actually learning to play the song!!

The End of Heartache...

New blog, but not much to say. In the middle of writing my first full song with only a small amount of help from Rob, I've actually got a chorus melody for it and a lyrical theme to work with. On top of that I've been giving to voice a work out by singing along to a few tracks, I've not sung in such a...

Job hunt is finally about to start, I'm finishing off my first version of my CV today. Annoyingly I don't have my music theory grade 5 certificate anymore (lost in a move years ago) which would be a help with the job I'm applying for...still, I'm sure my knowledge will come across fine.

I'm dreading next week, it'll be the start of 2mths without Laura....

Back in my own bed after another night of no sleep. I need to get a good nights sleep and wake up fresh for my presentation at 9:50 in the morning.

In other news, my other band seems to be taking shape. We have three members, are almost certainly set on the singer (just a case of seeing if she can write well with us)...
