Mindful Ramblings

Oh yes, I'm actually ill. I was feeling pretty shit all day on Friday, but there was a party that evening and I didn't want to miss it (there wasn't any alcohol but it was fancy dress so it was fun).

So I woke up on Saturday morning and felt absolutely shit, I had a massive headache and can't swallow properly, still can't, so I've been eating lots of ice cream, which is quite nice but I can't believe how much other stuff, like chocolate I've been eating just in these two days. Pretty pathetic. But hey that's life. I kinda don't want to go to school cause this weekend seemed really short but that the way it has to be.

I'm off to shower and complete homework for tomorrow.

Yesterday me and Amy went into the city to look for cheap guitars and watch a fim. We were going to originally watch "Meet the Spartans" but that wasn't on anymore at Vue, so we decided to watch "Son of Rambow" which is worth seeing, the trailers were really shit, but the film was excellent. Anywho we went into the city as well, where I finally bought some cowboy boots from New Look, and I must say I love them. We were looking for guitars and we saw a electric guitar for only £40.00 which is very cheap for an electric guitar, but we didn't have enough money.

But I've written a song that I think is alright, it's called "Escape":

I don’t think you realise

Why you should take off your disguise

Because there’s a better person underneath the lies

So I don’t want another compromise

 

(Bridge) And I can fell your restless

It’s becoming too much to contain

So all I can say to you

 

(Chorus) Let’s escape together

And do something unusual

Let’s wait and see what happens

When we run together

Let’s escape together and see how far we can go

 

They are immediate to judge

And they expect so much of us

You shy away 'cause you don’t want

To be on the outside

 

(Bridge)

(Chorus x2)

Let’s escape together and see how

Far we can go

Far we go

I think I didn't to bad, but obviously we still need a tune.

So me and Amy have pretty much decided we're going to start a band, this obviously depends if we get something done. But this idea mainly came from our music lessons where our teacher sends all the class to work in pairs and compose something. Amy and I often spend this time (trying to) play Kate Nash songs on the keyboard, we were messing about and I said as a joke, "Amy, seeing as we've pretty much have been blessed with the power of being musical geniuses, we NEED to start a band." We kinda agreed we would and then during the holidays Amy said, she'd been thinking that we should pick up the idea again. In all honesty the idea hadn't left my mind yet and I was seriously considering it.

So tomorrow (Wednesday) me and Amy are going to be bamging up some tunes on the keyboard but I've tried writing some songs bt I have no ideas what so ever, anybody got some ideas.

I lost my old pair somewhere. So on Friday Mum and me went into Norwich, for an eye test, turns out my left eye is getting better, so I got some new frame. They're kinda funky, black on the outside and orange on the inside. We managed to get them on the same day, but we had to wait a bit, so Mum and I went shopping. We found these gorgeous gray skinnies, in Primark, and Mum says to me, "You need some new jeans anyway. Try them on." So I try them on and their a size too big. So Mum grabs the next size down. They were only 10 pounds. We then went to New Look where I saw some amazing dark brown cowboy boots.

I desperately want them, but Mum said I can't have them, because I can't wear them to school. I was quite pissed off. But I said to her, "Would you think me crazy if on the 12th I would come here and buy them?" She laughed at me and said to me, "Of course I fucking would... But it is your money, so unless your buying drugs there isn't much I can do about it." I was grinning for hours afterwards.

So today I cleaned the house, not amazingly glamourous but I did get a fiver for doing it, so next Saturday I'm going to have 45 pounds to spend on stuff, among those things are the cowboy boots. I've wanted cowboy boots since ages.

I think I might make a Howard/Vince video. Any ideas people?

The title is retarded because it has nothing to do with what I'm going to talk about. So today Ellie, Alina's best friend, came round for a sleepover. She only brought Season 3 of Mighty Boosh, but it was still good. But before watching the Boosh we went to Banham zoo, whch was a nice change. It was quite funny and cute, because there were many baby animals, some where only a few days old, others a month or so.

We then went back home and watched the Mighty Boosh and other random videos on youtube, I showed the two, the IT Crowd. I think they loved it. I mean it's hilarious. This evening we went on this walk around Norwich, and we found out loads of stuff about rebellions that happened during tudor times, it was fairly interesting, because the man who did the tour was fairly entertaining.

So all in all an enjoyable day.
