this one's a doctor, this one's a lawyer

We're doing the cockroach, yeah.
Forgot to wake up this morning and it's actually better for me to be ill than late. Amazing, how this system works. Oh well. New Lost is out today. I might watch it and not wait for my "partner". Hmm.

Watched Lost.
And I was listening to Jonathan Ross's podcast, he was interviewing some actor. I want to get back in to acting. Some guys from the year below are performing the rape scene from Blasted by Sarah Kane, I'll try and get in touch with them. They were talking about making a theatre group. That would be pretty awesome to join. I miss acting so much. Becca wants me to be in the end of term assembly with her and do some shitty duologue. As if.

is she weird? is she white?

This is gonna be the first time I've slept in my own bed in about five weeks.

but last night was wild

Just watched Primer. That was a fucking confusing film.
Time travel does that, though. Well, in most stuff apart from Doctor Who.
By the way, the premise of Star Trek Voyager is amazing. It's similar to BSG, but they're trying to get back to their own people, after being teleported 70,000 lightyears from Earth or something. I wanna watch that again. Stargate is good too. Might download a couple of series.
I want to
I want to be someone else or I'll explode.

i don't know why i feel so tongue-tied

Watched Batman Forever in media studies today, I forgot how good/bad that film was!
Finally learned Wolf At The Door, Myxomatosis AND a new song by Franz Ferdinand, I've come so far!
Edie Britt. Bloody hell. I'm glad she's dead. But that follow up episode was abysmal. I can't believe how bad it was. Also, how disappointing Heroes has become. I hope 24 and Lost are still up to scratch.

it's for your own good, it's for the neighborhood

What should I do for my 18th? Parents keep asking me. They live in south france, by the way.
Went to supervised study for two hours today, sat and did crosswords and barely any French. I bet I fail that A Level, then there's me with only two A Levels. Great.

i'm gonna eat you alive i'm gonna eat you alive

there is only one way out
there is only one way out
there is only one way out
this is the only way out, follow us.
follow us or be left behind.

seems that's how the world works these days.

everything's burning down, we'd better dig it up somehow

Bonus points if you can guess what song that is without using google!
I have two hours of supervised study today at 1PM.
I've been sitting at a desk on here since 9 this morning, why do I have to walk into school to sit at a different desk for two hours? pfft. It annoys me.
Radiohead are nice too
Going out for a little drive, and it could be the last time I see you alive.
Killer Cars seems to mean a lot to me. I did spend a lot of being a 14 year old driving round France with leather seats and no air conditioning. Ouch.
Foxes are having a vintage tea party tonight, awesome.

well bet you are now, boy

I painfully finished my essay (mostly), only to find that the deadline has been moved forward to Wednesday. Great. At least I got a morning off.

one wing wasn't even enough

I play bass in a band called Reno. Myspace tells me there's another band called Reno, anyway we're Reno UK. A long time friend and her boyfriend came to watch us rehearse, so we played the only two songs we've finished for them, and it was great, they loved them. Our singer was bloody grumpy about it all though. Oh well.

I'm taking the morning off school (oh, and I started this post last night) to do homework. Which is a bit backwards, really. I was reading through my old English coursework, which I might edit and post here in shorter segments. It really is great. Well, I think it is. It's sort of the end of a story to work back on.

At the moment, I'm doing media work. It's coursework, it's due in at 1PM today, and it needs finished. It's about gay rights and representation of homosexuality in the media. Great.

So, when I finish sixth form I'm taking a gap year before uni. I have no idea what I'm doing for a year. None at all.

nice heart in a white suit

I have fifteen minutes before I set off to work, so I thought I'd post something. After my post this morning, I went back to Gaiaonline, a site which I was obsessed with about three years ago. One which I haven't even looked at properly since then. Lots of my old internet friends are on there, but a lot of them seemed to have forgotten about me. They were talking about old members they never see any more, and I wasn't even on the list. I guess either I didn't leave a lasting impression, or I'm too much of an oldbie to be remembered. Hey, I remember go-gaia and the original layout.
I left a couple of posts, in the vain attempt that people might recognise me, but hey. I shouldn't be going anywhere near sites like that (or like this!) or facebook or whatever until all my exams and coursework are finished.

I'm hoping for (at least!) daily posts on this site. I like a place to vent and that sort of stuff.
Modest Mouse are beautiful.
I needed a roadmap to find out where you lived, so excited about sleepwalking.
My love life at the moment is a bit weird. I dumped my ex probably last november, where I got a period of not seeing him for a month. I really didn't like him. He was too clingy (I'm 17 haha) and everything about him annoyed me! In what, February, I stopped chasing after this other guy I liked, because he wasn't at all interested, with good reason probably. Since then, I've pretty much been "best friends" with my ex, and in everyone's eyes but my own he is now my boyfriend, again. I'm still looking for someone else, it just seems convenient to have him there. I do like him a lot, though. It's silly. Anyway, need to get changed for work.

I loved him then I and still love him now. There won't be anything that will ever change that. I don't understand it. We both made mistakes, and there are still a great deal of things I dislike about him. But even now, in the future, in 2010, I still love him.

you'll go to hell for what your dirty mind is thinking

So, I'm back to the blogging thingy, this time with less of an emo flair and more of a Radiohead twist. Really, I missed the literary outlet. And perhaps that one subscriber my old blog had.
I'm going to try and post less rants, more writing, more or less about social life, I'm not sure on that one though.
Let's start with the basics.
My name's Jack, I'm from the north of England, I'm pretty much 18, I like proper music, I used to read books, I'm a media student, I like men, I buy in to those silly American series like Lost and Battlestar Galactica, I never want to have a proper job, I lived in France for a couple of years, and I'm aware how long this list is. Grammar means a lot to me.

I hope it goes well this time, hopefully with a couple of readers and that. Expect nonfluent rambles and stuff in the future. Next post is gonna be about Battlestar Galactica, I guess.

edit: just finished the layout of my blog and it's awesome. I love doing this.
