Everyone but me, is destined just to be, a slave to the remorseless grind

I am so happy. I really am, no idea why.

I love music. I really do. It's fantabulous. I think I can attribute it to my good mood. KISS, Motley Crue and The Darkness have been the main bands for today, and theyre just all so upbeat and awesome.

Still not found an outlet for my creativity. Yet I am no longer bothered. I'm sure things will pick up in the coming weeks.

Going to the caravan tomorrow. It's going to be awesome. Although I still have a shit load to organise/pack/charge. Also I'm not going tomorrow, I'm going on Friday but it'll do.

Really starting to miss leicester, even though its a shit hole. But yannow, the people there are wicked.

Sometimes I catch sight of myself prancing around, and I'm just pretending to be Shawn Michaels without realising it. Granted when I was 7 he was my hero.

Saw Hot Tub Time Machine with Mary and my brother the other night. SUCH a good film, and it continues the tradition of good films having good music in lately (see KISS in Role Models and Rush in I Love You Man) This film features Home Sweet Home by Motley Crue predominantly, and as of right now it's my favourite song. It changes regularly though.

I used to write this blog purely for myself. Then I showed it to Meg when I found out she did one too. So now I write it for the people I go to uni with, which is odd, because only Meg knows about it. Ah well.

I'm not very good at expanding thoughts on here.

But yeah, going to go get stuff ready for the holiday I reckon. Be happy, and if you're not, listen to some KISS or Motley Crue and tell me youre not still not happy.

My lip piercing has officially healed up. Fml. Probably my own fault for leaving it out for 3 days. How irritating.

I feel like I need to start exercising my creativity. Having just spent the best part of a week doing nothing but getting drunk and stoned and listening to rock n roll I feel like I couldn't have been any lazier.

I don't really know where to start. I want to write but it doesn't have much immediacy to it, with too much effort spent on making it a high quality piece of work. There are a few other options though.

I used to play Bass. I stopped about two years ago really, but I still have it lying around. The problem with that was that I felt like I reached my peak too early. Lets not kid anyone, it's not the hardest instrument to play, and sure there is plenty of potential for getting overly technical with it, but technical music tends to bore me, especially if it's so technical it involves some bass shredding.

Then there's it's little brother the six stringer. I never got a good grasp on the guitar due to the size of the frets and having to use a pick. Theres a lot more room with that though for metaphorical dick stroking. The problem is whenever I pick one up I tend to practise for half an hour for a couple of days then put it away again.

The other option would be drawing/painting. This is easy and something I could do purely for fun without having to worry about the quality of it, as it'd be personal expression rather than trying to hone a craft.

I'm starting to wonder about my hair too. I'm 21 in a few weeks and I've had long hair since I was roughly 15. I'm not considering chopping it all off, but I'm wondering if it might be worth cutting a bit off and actually having a yannow, style. The hardest part of this is that I have an undercut and a receding hairline which rules out a lot of cuts. I don't know.

Download was wicked, and made even more so when the Mrs turned up on Friday.

Didn't see anywhere near as many bands as I usually do, off the top of my head there was;

Killswitch
Them Crooked Vultures
AC/DC
Megadeth
Some of HIM (who were AWFUL)
Rage Against The Machine
Slash
Billy Idol
Steel Panther
Aerosmith

So probably about half as many as usual.

Heads all over the place at the minute. Stuck in some sort of weird limbo.

Kickstart My Heart

Today has been a failed day of room tidying. Instead i've spent most of the day watching hair metal dvd's and talking to meg.

I am very sad about not seeing Motley Crue this year. They are only playing Sonisphere and this makes me sad. I think I could probably listen to Motley Crue forever, and I pretty much have been non stop for the last 3 years.

I know I've pretty much ignored this lately. Literally everyone seems to be using one nowadays though so I'll make an effort. Along with formspring and twitter socialising online is more mental than ever before.

First year of uni is finished now, and I think with Aaron, April, Meg, Conor, Aimi, James, Dan, Tom, and several others I've done a lot better than I ever thought I would in terms of actually being nice to people and making friends. Plus theres Jenny and Lauren who are so fucking easy to live with that it hurts sometimes.

Now that I'm back for the summer I'm missing regular trips to the pub. Derby fails compared to Leicester as no matter where I go in Derby I always see some prick I'd rather not.

Heading to Donington next week. I've no idea why Vince Neil thinks moustaches are cool.

Download should be good this year, Jays coming who I dont think I've seen since 2006, and for saying we were best mates it's pretty weird. We have the same taste in alcohol and rock n roll anyway, can't think of anyone better suited to a festival than him.

I might finish this off later.
