My sleeping pattern is well and truely messed up.. I've become nocturnal again it feels like it's 2-3am for me at the mo, i seem to just slip into this pattern when given more than a couple of days off in a row.
I've spent almost an hour this morning sat with my beefy headphones on reading and listening to this one track..
It's been emotionally stirring yet relaxing at the same time.. especially at the part 2.40 into that video it moves something in me, don't know why, but I like it.. maybe it's the lack of sleep.
I'm reading "The pocket Dangerous book for boys - things to know"
Here's one of tips it gives in the "Advice about girls section"
7. If you see a girl in need of help - unable to lift something, for example - do not taunt her.
Approach the object and greet her with a cheerful smile, whilst surreptitiously* testing the weight of the object.
If you find you can lift it, go ahead. If you can't, try sitting on it and engaging her in conversation.
I'll have to remember that one ..although saying that most of the girls I know would likely glare me to death for even thinking to offer help in something they're sure they can manage by themselves
* I had to look up what surreptitiously means to which I found it ment "Obtained, done, or made by clandestine or stealthy means".
I'm going to ask Sam (my tattooist) if I can use her shop as influence for a website I'll have to make for my course (we've got to make one for a school, charity or business.. not an official site or anything doesn't even have to be a real business/charity) they've already got one but I'm sure she wont mind me using her pics n stuff for one.
It'd be great practice for when I make my folio page, having to make a gallerys to show off pics ect.
If you ever find yourself lacking confidence or courage read this..
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafriad.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
Invictus - William Ernest Henley.
Wow how highbrow am I this morning with poetry and classical music .. I'm going to go fart on a cat in vengence and laugh at some beavis and butthead.
Laaaaaters!

The dark arts of web design eh? It's changed so much since I did it, I wouldn't even know where to begin. I just about mastered style sheets and some basic javascript!
Nonetheless, the world could do with more web designers who have a good grasp of graphic design. The only problem I find though, is some that do are too in to the aesthetic aspects of design to remember the point of the whole thing- functionality!
The best design fuses form and function.
Out of interest: a) did you do your profile image, and b) are you a star wars nerd at all?
yeah, it's worrying how my brother was actually serious...he's a nutter.
