I just got Coxxinated... via post!



I just posted this and forgot to blank out my address haha

I was meant to be singing today but I don't feel very well. Better be better tomorrow for Poole.

The reason I YouTube...

It's not for personal gain.

It's not for friends.

It's not for fans.

It's to make good numbers.



They'd fucking love that in China.

Next up eight-nine-ten.

Scotland

I went. I am back home now.  I still have writing all over my body.

I'm terrible at remembering things but here's some memories:

  • Driving up with Ian

  • Seeing The Coxxinator's bedroom

  • Sleeping in The Coxxinator's bedroom with 5 other people

  • Waking up after the gathering had started

  • Meeting American Nick

  • Expanding TARDIR

  • Watching Stephen sniff Mhazz for a video (which took several takes due to laughter!)

  • Playing Jason Mraz

  • Missing Nic =(

  • Playing the Barry Aldridge drinking game

  • Getting very drunk

  • Surviving on one meal a day plus alcohol

  • Taking a bag full of stuff and only opening it once

  • Hugs

  • Talking to Chris, Levi and Drake on Skype.

  • Calling Levi Australian. GUTTED - probably hates me now.

  • Liam and Ginger Chris <3

  • Making drinks with Laura

  • Finding out that Glasgow has the worst taxi service in the world

  • Saying bye to Mhazz then realising I'll see her in less than a week!

  • Tino and Mark

  • Expanding the 'We hate Beth Club'

  • Ian driving for 41 seconds without touching the steering wheel

Spontaneity

Until recently I felt like I'd lost it somewhat. When I was at uni I didn't often plan things to do at weekends because usually someone would come to me on Friday afternoon with a plan that I couldn't say no to. Not being able to say no is a problem I have, but with this sort of thing I don't consider it a problem at all, deciding to do something just moments before you do it is one of my favourite things. Even during the week there were so many opportunities to do things 'just because', and I loved that.

But not having lectures most days that take me in towards the city, and not living with friends, I haven't had that feeling much. However yesterday I decided that tomorrow I'm going to Scotland, and today I decided that next weekend I'm going to Poole!

I had kind of planned to do nothing but finish my EP for the rest of this month, but I should still find plenty of time for that. Plus I haven't been to Scotland in... well it must be ten years, and I've never been to Poole! Plus Poole is free... Oh I don't suppose I've told you - Poole is where Mystery package people have invited some people to see what they do. It's the RNLI (lifeboat guys) by the way - the people behind it all.

Oh and Doug, I hate to be a let down but this did not take an hour. However it is pure gold material.

Good news!

I took the sides off my computer and with a hoover and a hairdryer got enough dust out of it to make a bunny large enough to destroy the world. I did resist the urge to make said bunny for fear of said destruction.

ANYWAY now my computer works! How good is that?!

Didn't get much done today but I did tidy so now there is lots of room in my room which bodes well for a productive day tomorrow. Tidy room = productivity by the way, just in case you didn't know.

OH! While I'm here, short rant:

FUCK YOU SETANTA!

You know how usually in business, competition is good for the customers? Yeah well apparently not when it comes to broadcasting football. Once upon a time having sky meant you could see all the football you wanted. Now Setanta have come along and taken some games, so if you want to watch everything you have to buy both. That's not good! They should both have all the games, then it would be true competition based on who provides the better service and price, but no it's buy both or miss the England match. Well you know what, fuck you! I watched the tennis instead and it was way better. Shame it got rained off, but I'm looking forward to seeing the resolution tomorrow. Murray is playing Nadal by the way, and winning! One more set and he's in the final. I'm excited.

OK BYE!

Guess what I did!

Exercise! I know - mental!

I went on the rowing machine, did about half an hour with regular fifteen minute breaks (to hold off the heart attack) but hey, it's a start!

Got my new charger so now the reason I'm not getting back to you is simply that I don't like you.

I'm currently editing a video. It's about 3:20 long and I have an hour of footage. And I'm doing split screens with only one timeline. FUN!

postscript

If anyone has any footage from the youstage festival I would love for you to send it to me. I want especially anything of my set or any big group shots. Videos or pictures would be great.

Also, don't feel you have to read all of the last post - I'm aware it's very long and not very well written, I just needed to write.
