Another Month, Gone...

So, it's August now and it's not much more than a month left until I go back to college properly. Thinking about things, I still have a lot of things I have to do... Like getting a passport sorted out and additional music theory, which I'm surprised I've managed to off put for so long! I best get on track with all of this in time for another good year. I'm really looking forward to going back to college at the moment, with my band pretty much on track seemingly waiting to be recorded (which should be happening within the next few weeks!!) It's all a bit exciting at the moment!

Plus, recently I have had new opportunities with photography. Video Recording and taking photos of one of my friends who is professional live vocalist. I recon that the videoing was the best it could be to say I don't video usually, and the images... Well, let's just say they were a little harder to capture. Most are bury because of movement but overall, some pretty good photos. There are a select few that I'm very proud of! I was using different cameras to what I usually use, both Sony so it was different. I had used them before and I knew their qualities and to be honest I'm glad that overall I chose the two I chose! Good results!

A Jolly Good Day, I Say!

Today has been different, that is for sure. Not just the weather being extremely warm instead of the usual cold, horrible weather. I have had fun. A Bit like the good ol' days!

I have been out skateboarding for most of the day with a great friend. I hadn't done this in ages until today. After skating we both went for some food back at my house where we shared a pizza (That was very yummy). Eventually we found ourselves comparing Gameboys, music and eventually playing games.

Pokemon Colosseum and Super Smash Brawl for the Nintendo GameCube were the games we played.

(I won, most of the time).

Fun Times.

A Turn For The.....

Everything really is happening so fast at the moment. Good things and bad. I'm not a hundred percent what is going on exactly but I know for a fact I'm not thinking straight. I have so many distractions and things to think about that makes myself so unsure of everything. Even facts; things that I know are true. But, when other things start to mist over and some answers start to hide... It doesn't help.

There are people I feel I need to talk to right now... Some that will listen, some that won't.

I need answers but can't reach them. Not at the moment. Given time. I'm so sensitive recently. Things will get better and I will 'pull through'. I'm not ill, I'm just a bit of an idiot. However... I think my mind does need clearing a little. A bit of a break.

It doesn't help that I'm aching all over. I have strained a few of my pathetic muscles carrying my bass around in a hard case for most of the day yesterday!

I'll live. I'll have too.

It's Been A While...

It's been almost a month since I last posted and I can easily say that a lot has happened since. I have been extremely busy with band rehearsals and a little stressed too. There have been good moments, mind! I performed at Snienton Market Square in Nottingham, UK to celebrate the Olympic Torch coming to Nottingham. Also, my band was asked to perform at the graduation event at my college!

I has been a bit hectic and chaotic. Some things have gone really well, somethings... well. Lack of organisation, that's all I'm saying!

I'm still busy as I type! I've now got to rehearse with my band some pop songs... Pop songs can be boring to play but we've tried our best to 'claim' the 'best' ones! This is all for gig linked to college in October, so I'm told.

I'm looking forward to it.

Begining of the End.

                 It's the last few days of college coming up for me! I'm on a short break for a week right now but then I go back for what may well be said as two days!! Slightly pointless and a little disappointing to have sight of the end of the college year. This year really has been amazing, I have enjoyed every moment of it!!!!! If I'm completely honest, I don't really want it end! Still, another year to go!

                 Been travelling quite a lot recently. On Saturday, I went to Mablethorpe mostly to see the band Beardsmith who were absolutely incredible! I even got the T-shirt!! The next day involved getting home after staying in a caravan! Also, Monday was strange. Full of strange but, interesting conversations. I went to a train museum that day... it was kind of interesting.

Saturdays...

               Weekends always seem to bore me. I'm not sure what it is exactly about them that makes me think this but I don't usually enjoy them. Maybe it's because I don't ever have anything planned. Bah!! oh well, today hasn't been that bad anyway. Even though, I still have my cold (Not that I expected to get rid of it after one day of having it) and haven't been feeling my best, I managed to tidy my bedroom earlier. A great accomplishment, I say. Never usually do, though my parents did push me into doing it.

                I've been playing a lot of piano recently. More and more by the week it seems.... I didn't used to, but I suppose it's not much of a surprise as it is my first instrument really. It's just that only became highly interested in it near the beginning of the year, around February time. Yes, February. Personally I think that I've developed well since. It's only been about four months, I feel like I'm progressing well.

                Nevertheless, to end today... Here is a photo of Ilkeston, my home town, that I taken had whist I was still in school. To me, this picture never gets old. I even remember taking it. :)

Realisation

Today, I must admit...

I didn't exactly wake up brilliantly... Being woke up by a rediculas dream at 03:45 and discorvering that you have a headache and cold all at the same time is certainly far from brilliance! I'm supprised that I managed to drag myself into college today. I don't have to be in on Fridays but at times like these and with the amount of work that I have left to do (which technically isn't that much but still requires a lot of effort), I really need to get my head down.

Recently I can't help but remember some people I'm missing in my life. That really got to me this morning. Thoughts of long lost friends that I haven't spoken to in over a year. It hurts to think!! Ah, well... The worst I can do is cry about it, besides I suppose in the end it is their lost so well as mine.

But to think that once, they were people I looked up to for guidence... Now, they are memorys.

Good memories.

Almost empty.

My First Post :)

Well, hello!!
This being my first ever post, I want to use it to explain what I am going to do with my blog, 'A Series Of Inspiration'. I like to think of myself as creatively minded and love anything artistic. Recently, I have rediscovered photography and my heart for sketching. But anyway, I would like to use this blog to show my progressions along the path of creativity, by uploading images and all sorts of other things.

Currently, I am studying Lvl 3 Music Performance at NCN Clarendon College. I really enjoy college to the fullest and find it a shame that my college year is coming to an end quite rapidly. It won't be long until I have lots of free time to myself and become missing the yellow and purple walls....

This is just one of my recent photographs that I have edited.



To The Sword!!!

I hope to publish many more like this on here.

 But before I finish, I must say I may also use this blog as a way to remember what made me myself and letting myself think back to my 'even younger days'. I'm only seventeen after all....

So enjoy!
