22nd of june, first day of summer... ish

So yesterday was the first day of summer "21st june"
which was a friday, the last day of my EXD Media course.
"EXD = Extended national diploma"

so that was you know, interesting.
firstly, i've been ill for a few days now. usually wake up tingle in the throat, have a cup of tea. fine no problem.
this time, nah its stuck with us, turns out i got a cold or some shit. i ent been to doctors or anything.
but you don't need to be one to know what a cold is man.

so anyway, yesterday was a bit ill but still made it to college.
chilled out a bit, went to the HND meeting.
"HND = higher national diploma"

...

CCU = Camera controle unit.
ask me another media "BBC" term and i'll tell you what it is.
or try and tell you i wanna learn them so when someone says an acronym i can go.
sweet got it.
rather than the standard Stokes way of.

I got no idea what i'm doing, but i know how to do it.

so that was interesting, then got grades back was alright enough to get onto the HND.
so then chilled, then back for the end of year course celebrations, with a shit load of pizza and awards.

I won
"day dreamer" award

Fuckin' fucked off i didn't win best dressed award.
i won it last year man, nothings changed man, why not win again.
Mother fuckers.

went out for a few drinks right after.
Dude i still didn't feel right, still don't man.
Got home, felt alright, cleaned the Bar-BQ cooked some chicken wings, then after that went downhill man. just felt terrible my eyes were watering and shit. not good man.
then went to bed woke up alright ish.



Oh yeah, so we have an Assignment to do over the summer, which is document what we've done over the summer. so i'm doing a blog... not this one another one, that cannot be uploaded until they've seen it.
So i'm going to do weekly events and shit for it.
with pictures and videos if i make any.

So look forward to that at the end of september, or i'll just uploaded that here as well whatever.

So anyway, today i was supost to have band practice with Dead Happy,
Freaky disco metal band with Jason from Winter Storm.
Had to iss it because i didn't feel well enough to travel the well almost 2 hours journey to Stourbridge and back.
so stayed home to recover and shit, its when it gets to night time like now that it feels terrible and i feel worse.

And i say band practice.
He's going to show us how to play the set live, gotta have a live guitar player.
Myself... ayy.

So anyway

I spent a few hours playing gears of war 3
Not finished it yet on chapter 6.

And dude when Dom died.
Also spoilers, but then unless you are like me and don't bother getting games often and only play them for the single player, then sorry but everyone else, fair play.
But anyway when he died.

Man i weren't crying i'm ill make it makes my eyes water and shit.
which is true that dose happen to me man, it makes my eyes water and shit at times.
but it is sad man have a watch man.

so what has happened within the last 15 days since my last blog.

...

Fuck all.

Well a bit actually.

i've seen Star Trek into darkness and Fast and furious 6

Both good man, but i think fast 6 is an advert for terminal 6 and 7.

thats about that for them, they are good, if you don't like em, then well your choice. can't tell ya to like it or not, its like death metal, you should like it, but you don't have to... but you're probably listening to it wrong anyway.

Nothing to do with listening to death metal but i can't be arsed to find anything proper.

So anyway.

Got rid of quid guitar player.

got a new one.

Got gigs with em lined up now metal gona be rockin' and shit.

Winter Storm recording album starting monday metal.

Missed band practice Thursday with them due to illness.

Fuck knows what it is.

wait its a cold.

Anyway moving on.

I've started to learn the Piano.
I started when little but never took off too much.
PLayed a little but only during lessons.
So set up my keyboard and been learning with the lessons on Garage band.
Hey its a good starting point, don't fucking mock it.
And its not like i'm just following the lessons exact.

I'm a guitar player and drummer so i can play stuff, and have even began to transcribe guitar notes and stuff onto the keyboard/piano.
which is cool man because that shits sounds good.

Came up with a i'm going to say Waltz as its triplets but it sounds like its 6/4 but its just 3 notes between each beat.

You'll understand when i record a demo.

So came up with a intro verse and chorus section and shit.
Should be good.

And along with that i'm learning Damian Rice 9 Crimes and today i've started to learn Gary Jules version of Mad World.
...
Originally by Tears For Fears.

So doing that is interesting because its opened up a new song writing method for me, i find it hard linking sections together but playing guitar with Dead happy and playing piano now makes more sense when linking sections and parts and even coming up with new sections that sound good with it, that can also go back into the original idea.

And that is all i''m going to say tonight, I'm going to play some piano abit more, figure out some more of mad world then go do something.

Goodbye people.
Keep you updated soon.

Goodbye.
Will.
