1. HOLY FUCK!!!! YESSS YES YESSS!!! AHHHHHH!!! WOOOOOHHHHHH!!! I'm a senior grade in Jitsu now! I graded last saturday and got the much desired belt. It's about time, I'd been hanging around for a year and fucked up the last grading (or got differed). I'm very very VERY happy about this! It makes up for how upset I was last time. Few people make it this far so I consider it an important personal achievement. Now, I get to go to Saturday sessions, get taught by this awesome instructor, move on to some new Jitsu etc etc After months of thinking that I am utter shit at jitsu (you just don't get encouraged much...), this is a good boost to my morale. 
2. An article was published about my band last month in a big French magazine called Rocksound. It's one of the first before our record comes out sometime after the Summer (fingers crossed). I'm very happy with the way they've described our stuff as 'pop, metal, rock, experimental'. Very true. It's a shame I don't have a copy of it.
I'm in Paris this week so we're taking advantage of my being around to do a photoshoot with everyone in the band on Sunday because it hasn't really been done until now.
3.Some pictures from an SGUK meet I went to a month or so back. Sorry if I stole the pictures from you!
Barny and me.
I brought shanka along to meet some real English people!
4. Please go join my groups! I wish we had more members and more activity... The Lesser Played Instruments and Athletes.
Thank you!
5. i took up a job in a shop in central London so I could make some cash this month and the next. The job makes me feel dirty because I feel so taken advantage of there but it's only for 2 months. Honestly though, things are so fucked up in that company I don't know where to start, the completely illegal things that go on there? the lies? the no health and safety considerations? the shitty pay? the crappy hours? the atrocious music?the weird dresscodes?. Working there requires huge amounts of self-control to not hit the dumbass prick of an assistant Manger which I'm finding more difficult each day.
I live most of the year on very tight amounts of money and I have to admit it's pretty nice having a bit more money to spend these days. And it motivates me to make more music because I realize how impossible it would be for me to work in retail or any other non-artistic area for the rest of my life. I could be doing something better no doubt but I needed something quick and this was the easiest option.
6. The one good thing about this job is the friends I've made there! I really have met some nice people including three girls who are simply awesome. I've sadly never had many female friends and I'm enjoying the female companionship a lot!
7.One thing I'd like to keep some of the money for would be to eventually do a masters in the near future and after that why not, a PhD. (providing it doesn't conflict with my music). Of course I'd love to use this money on some more tattoos but I have my whole life to get tattoos. People always seem to be in such a rush for this kind of stuff.
8. My friend is writing a book on Climate change and environmental ethics. having worked with the Environmental commitee of the United Nations. I already knew how bad it is but it's crazy to know that most people think the planet will be fine. If only they knew just how fucked everything is... i feel guilt every time I use some water damnit, and then I feel hatred for people who don't give a fuck, big businesses who only care about profit and moronic political leaders like Bush.
9. I'm currently writing lyrics for a really big band in France called No One Is Innocent which is fucking cool. Then I'll be writing for another project...
10. I went to Brighton two weeks ago, it was so much fun! It's a shame about the crappy rocks covering the beach though; you really cannot walk anywhere on the beach without flip-flops which made going in the freezing cold water that much more challenging... Whatever, I'm obsessed with the ocean and i'm always happy to be on the beach.
it's no Sandy beach with turquoise water...
...But it is nice!
The view... From me!
The moon reflected in the water... and a star.
Unreal horizon
11. After months and months of excitement about getting to see The Sisters of Mercy live, I am saddened to say the concert was extremely disappointing. Too much smoke on stage, shit sound (we never heard his voice..) and they didn't play one of my favourite songs
.
Fortunately, Tool was a lot better live! As much as I love their music though, I could never forgive them for their stupid photography rules. You couldn't even go in to the hall with a bag (not even a handbag) which was a huge hassle and resulted in queuing for hours to deposit our stuff and get it back. Oh, and they didn't play Parabola or Prison sex:Assholes.
12. I've been very very busy and i do apologize for not answering comments these past months. On top of that, the site changing has just made everything loads more complicated; I can't find anything anywhere now so I've just been spending less time here to lessen my frustration.
I hope you have a pleasant Summer!
Tell me about a band/artist you really like and why?
