It started feeling like October

October 27, 2008 by Greg

It’s half term! I’m pretty much bored of college already, so a break is refreshing. While we are on the topic of college : Media is cool. We are currently working on a short film. It will be my first piece of fiction I have ever made so I am pretty excited about that. Business is pretty good. ICT involves way too much work, and generally it’s horrible work.

I got my copy of The Glass Passenger by Jack’s Mannequin last week, which is actually my first physical copy of an album (I’m normally a 100% download kid via Napster but that’s a different story). It’s a pretty amazing album, I suggest you all listen to it a few times. In case you were wondering, the title of this blog entry is a nod to a song on the album.

Nicola suggested I listen to You Me At Six so I did, and they are pretty good! According to last.fm and my Zen, I have listened to songs from their debut album over 200 times in the past week. Which is quite a lot! Thanks Nicola!

But nothing can possibly top Razia’s Shadow : A Musical by Forgive Durden. It’s a musical. Characters are played by members of bands such as Brendon Urie of Panic at the Disco and Greta Salpeter of The Hush Sound. It’s an epic project. Every time I listen to it, I pick up more and more about the plot. The amount of alliteration used on this album is truly amazing. A serious contender for Album of the Year.

Enough about music. In other news :
• I am planning a trip to New York in 2010. Everyone is invited. Ask me for details. Things are being done on the cheap, but the cheap still requires significant money.
• I am adding the final touches to one-third of Hazardous Ink site which will be launching in a couple of weeks. You’ll be inspired.
• I am pondering the thought of buying a Moped.
• I am pondering the thought of buying a Mac mini whenever the updated version comes out.
• I am going to London on Tuesday.
• I am rewriting the people page, and updating the graphics & photography section of the site very soon.

Quote of the month : “You’re fit, but I have a boyfriend.”
Oh errm gee. That comment was very useful, I would even go as far as saying it was life changing.

For now, I bid you farewell. See you around yeah?

  5. Nix: There isn’t any real reason apart from it will be a pretty cool experience. And it’s always good to get away from adults. And it’s to celebrate the end of college. I’m just making up reasons now! There isn’t any real reason!

    There is one slight downside, the drinking age in New York is 21. But I am sure we could get around that.
