From about 2 weeks ago:
I used to head out just as the sun had climbed over Bray head and head home once it was an hour or two from dipping behind the Wicklow hills. Except in September, when Id leave the house just as the Sun was directly in front of my stinging, sleep covered eyes and set off home just as it had swung around to face me all the way back. The last few Septembers have been full of swears and exclamations of Cant see a fuckin thing! Fucking September Sun
Id spend all September (when I wasnt busy being blind and trying not to walk into people on main street,) waiting for Autumn to get into full swing so I could kick through the piles of leafs on my way to college. I still am kinda.. though college is well over at this point, all the work is done, all the lessons learnt..
Anyway, yeah, I come to you today, pre-typed, from the slightly smelly and cramped basement room of a house on the Herbert road that currently houses an accountancy class, a PC Repair company and us, a computer basics class. Yes Im in a computer basics class. Yes I know I can do all of that already, but its better than the dole (for my conscience and my wallet), and Ill at least get some proper recognition for a skill I learnt on my own as a child. All of that said, Im bored as hell. I type faster than the others, I comprehend my work better and I get it done with
God I wish I was exaggerating, HOURS to spare.
Ive been drawing a lot.. Ive also managed to read a book, almost entirely in class time, write a script for a comic strip, do character design for it, and send long and mopey text messages to Joey, because this class is draining everything from me!
The money has been nice to have though, I tend top spend too much of it though. Ill defend myself by saying a lot of the stuff Ive bought have been all the things I wanted to get while I was unemployed and promised myself, once I had the money. That or on dates, which are fun.
Lets see.. Ive run out of good comics to read lately. Ive read all of Scott Pilgrim about 3 or 4 times now since January, and I really cant wait for the next volume to come out so I can finish the story, oh and the movie. Joey really enjoyed all the comics I gave her which is awesome, because, Scott Pilgrim is such a good book. Em, oh, so I got the first Y The Last Man, but I didnt really like it.. Maybe I expected it to be a bit more mad, but its come across as a bit bland, especially compared to something like The Walking Dead, which is amazing and only ever slows down to catch its breath after something incredible has happened. Seriously, the last collection of it I read ended with everyone on the run from a Flock, which is a super herd of zombies all following each other like sheep. Oh also the main character is slightly insane now..
So uh, yeah, Y has left me kinda disinterested and wondering what the fuss is about. At the moment Im really alternating between collections of Hellboy, which I love, and Sandman, which you cant hate really. But asides from that, nothing has caught my attention at all. Its lame. Still, Serenity Rose 2 is out soon, which Ive read most of online and is awesome. Its a lot more actiony than the first volume, which is sad, because I loved all the silly Goth stuff from issue 2.. It was a really sweet comic, but hopefully Aaron will go back to that a little in Vol 3, which he pretty much said he was doing.. pretty much. Anyway, it seems like Seras life was heading towards some sort of confrontation, and has had the forum talking quite a bit. And by that I mean at all!
Oh shit, I was wrong, I read Gloom Cookie 4, and it was awesome! I think I have one more volume of that to go before I hit the point were Serena Valentino got kinda burnt out on it and started writing other stuff. That book in ancient at this stage.
Lets see.. I guess I could mention Ive seen 500 Days of Summer, Adventureland, and Children of Men in the last 2 weeks.. But I think that would be boring. Children of men is awesome though, and 500 days of summer was sweet. Adventureland was.. a film.
Ok!
I got a heap of games too.. Which will bore you all to death, but I must admit something.. Confess something really. One of them is an MMO, and not my first MMO either. If you dunno what that is, its the type of game World of Warcraft is. Stuff is about as addictive as cocaine, and promises you cooler and cooler stuff, if only youd play for JUST A LEVEL OR TWO MORE!!
Its kind of like a pyramid scheme, actually.. Or like gambling.
Im staying strong though, Im playing this one for fun, rather than keeps, with a group of silly bastards who Ive gotten close with in the last year or so of annoying children and college students in games. So I log on, play for about an hour or maybe enough to go up a level and then quit to go draw or play something else or have a chat with someone or whatever
I actually kind of regret getting the game now, its being run really bad right now and has barely any way of paying the subscription fee.. Not to mention the fact that they break and re-break it every week. Its a bit of a misadventure.
Ok proper shit now.
I turned 22 the other week.. I honestly don't feel that much old... nope.. not at all, I don't feel the cold grip of mortality taking hold of me.. oh no!!! To celebrate I invited some people over for an evening of drink and pirates. Ross trumped all our costumes by wearing pirate boots. The party actually took place on Talk Like a Pirate day too, which was a total coincidence. Joey got me some shirts and a... a Twilight dvd, bleach! Oh and somethig else which wont be mentioned to the likes of you!
So um.. things are going well.. I've been enjoying myself, reading, drawing, listening to music, seeing good movies, I got all my work for college done.. got some good games. Yep it's going ok. except for a few things but... eh why spoil a nice, upbeat blog by talking about my emo bullshit?
Smell you
