Square

I feel
that since this is a blog I use to document my life's events,
I should tell you all about my work.
What it is that I do...
How I feel about it
etc etc.

If I hadn't been verbally and physically abused every time the word
FILING
came out of my mouth tonight,
maybe I would have.
But I don't want you to hate me too...

So instead I shall update you on a few of the fun things in life.
Site Seeing.. at home.
The day before P left, we went to ye old Gorey Castle and took a look around.
Was nice.
Then P left
and Jersey Live happened.
Pre drinking at 12pm
leads to bad things
and great things.

That classic annual photograph
A not so classic photo, love it
Trendy
Quick and the Dead
Groooooove Amarda
(fuck, they're amazing)
Was a good weekend.
It was also the catalyst to one of the most depressive weeks I've ever known
but life has fixed itself a little since then.

Now, I know you're wondering about the square photos.
Photobucket and I have had a falling out...
(you must have noted the lack of photos in the rest of my blog)
that means no more beautiful rounded edges.
No more charm.

I'll get over it soon
and my fun lovin' side should return.
But 'till then,

Chao,
Happy Blogging

One Can Only Imagine

The boy left for uni saturday morning.
Tomorrow, sister leaves for uni abroad.
Friends are heading their separate ways over the next few weeks.
Weather's shit.
Full time job just around the corner.
And the worst of it is..
argh
it is literally painful to type..
my camera is broken.

I'm feeling deflated and so sad.

I think it's the anti-climax.
Jersey Live - that festival I mentioned a while ago?
well it was this weekend
and it was awesome
(despite somebody pouring vodka on my camera)
but it's over now
time for people to move on.

But I don't want summer to end and people to leave!
I know there's lots of new beginnings
(i'm sure I can scrape together some money to get the cam fixed
or buy a new one?)
but still...
nobody
likes
change
(I have a special bond with that inappropriately big camera)

Sigh,
it's going to be a long night.
In my desperate attempt to cheer up
I went rummaging through my Iphoto
and found these bad boys
from a party I went to last year.

And now i'm thinking to myself...

'Nothing i'm feeling now could match how these guys must have felt when they took that first glimpse of realisation
trying to figure out
where they are
and what the fuck they're doing on the floor
or why they might be holding several thousand beer bottles
or even why they are looking like a lady
or maybe even why there is a boot on the face.'

One can only imagine......
Or not?
I have been backwards and forward on whether to show this to you or not..
but here it is.
(Yes, that is brioche i'm clutching in my fist)
(and Yes, I did pass out at 10pm)
(and finally Yes, I did get up at 6am to take photos of the unconscious,
making it out as though I had been apart of the amazing night)

It's strange how much happier I feel.
hehehe

Happy Blogging

Festival Festivities

Yesssss, finally some festival festivities for me to indulge in.
Grassroots is only a small Jersey eco-friendly festival
that presents this cool,
'peace-out man' sort of vibe
with the reggae, acoustic, famous and non famous bands they get to play there.
The venue is small but the lineup was SO huge!
Jose Gonzales
Natty
Bedouin Soundclash
It was amazing!!!
Jersey really outdid themselves this year.
Being stuck on this isle all summer hasn't exactly been... exhilarating
but I have to admit, things like this are worth the 40 quid.
It was so much fun, far more chilled out than most festivals
so I just totted around bumping into people all day and night...
Freeman and Tiff decided to take a nap...
A classic side effect of drinking before 3pm.
The couple in the back were stoned off their faces
and the looks that my friends got were pretty hilarious
hahah stoners, gotta love em.
2 weeks - JERSEY LIVE 2010
Can't wait.
Happy Blogging people
