Blog Post - Gown-ey Good Times, Temporary Prohibition & Attemping To Be Musical
So where were we? Oh yeah - a post!
Hello to all three of you who will probably read this. And I think I'm probably being a bit optimistic there too. From the list I made I reckon I'll cover a few topics tonight as I'm sleepy and such. Possibly long and most definitely with photo's so I'll be nice and do a cut. Unless you’re reading this on Facebook then there's no cut for you!
So what’s new? Oh yeah, I graduated
That gown was really irritating
Spent most of to day with my hat the wrong way round, and regardless of what my friend said I didn't feel like I was in Harry Potter. Joking aside, graduation was fun. My parents and Aunty and Uncle came for the ceremony with my sister en tow later in the afternoon (she had Uni). I wasn't feeling very well on the day so wasn't in the best of moods and of course, perked up around 9pm when everyone else was ready to nod off - not because of the drinking obviously....
Guess this means I'm officially no longer a student, that’s quite worrying really. The real world, I don't like it.
In somewhat of a novel idea I've decided to not drink until my Birthday. Last time I was drunk was Halloween - well the week after when Mona Road had their belated bash. Yeah fair enough it's only five or six weeks, but you'd be surprised how many people have tried to get me back on the juice. And it's not exactly stopped me going out, been a bunch of gigs, corp a couple of times, The Academy and Babylon. So yeah, been keeping busy.
Corpy good times
3D Glasses make any night better
It's strange though, because I tend to wake up the next day from Corporation feeling worse from not drinking than I do when I've had muchos vodka. Take yesterday for example - hangover-style headache, aching neck and exhausted for the last hour in the club. But I still enjoy myself as much, it costs less and I can at least remember the night.
After spending a long time watching people play, I've decided I want to learn how to play guitar. Now I did buy one in first year Uni aaaaaaall the way back then, but didn't get very far. I'm hoping that with a little bit of age comes a bit of patience, but time shall tell:
My new lady in Red
I've not had chance to play much, had to wait for the tuner to turn up yesterday. Up to now I've 'mastered' the start of 45 by Shinedown, well if you ignore the slightly more difficult than the rest bit in the middle
Yeah, that thing at 15 seconds.
In fairness, a chimp could probably play it, but it's something simple to start with. Check back in three months time....when I'll probably have given up haha.
that's enough for tonight I reckon, well done if you've been bored enough to go through this. More to come, another 9 topics from that aforementioned list at least.
