so, here's the earth. s'chillin. DAMN, that is a shweet earth you might say. WRONG~
ITS THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT, AND I FEEL FINE.....
anyways.
i know i know, i havent posted in over a week. to be fair, you did get two consequtive posts last time. and i have been heck of busy this past week.
essentially from friday 16th till friday 23rd (all of last week and last weekend) i have een working. every single day. and, in addition to that, i have been trying to get a buncha stuff sorted out as well. the biggest thing out of these is my medical form for camp america. i handed it in at the doctors clinic on wednesday, but it it took another visit and a slew of phone calls on thursday just to get it allocated to a doctor! the prolem is that the clinic just has ONE person who even knows what to do with the form, so i had to wait until she started work (by which time, i was ALREADY AT WORK) before it could even get sorted. so im sitting in the stock room at work trying to get hold of this woman...man, that was stressful. anyway, its sorted now.
i've been ordering a whole bunch of stuff recently. i got Blackmore's Night "Past Time's with Good Company" live CD, i got Kimya Dawson's "Remember that I love you" CD, i got volumes 1 and 2 of Martian Successor Nadesico on DVD (which completes my collection!) and i got a Hohner Chromonica 270 Chromatic Harmonica. the thing is a beast! i've wanted a chromatic harmonica for a little while now, and now i got one! its much harder to play then my diatonic harmonica, but hopefully i'll get used to it!
i also went out and bought "Black Lagoon: 2nd barrage" vol 3 the other day. this completes my Black Lagoon anime collection. i really like Black Lagoon, its an awesome anime, but the ending left me feeling like something was missing. i know not all animes wrap themselves up nicely (see my "Kino's Journey" review) but it still seemed a little disjointed at the end. The second season of BL was a lot darker then the first too, but that just made it even cooler. defintely deserving of it's (18) certificate! ha ha. i just gotta finish the manga now...i think i got five more volumes to buy (when they release them ^^; ) it'll be interesting to see how the original manga portrays the events in comparison to the later anime.
The weather has been all topsy turvey this week. and by topsy turvey i mean its been cold and wet. well, cold all the time, and wet every other day. its been playing havoc with the trains, with a lot of delays and cancellations this week. it's so dumb, you woulda thought that rain and cold would be the sort of weather the British Rail network would be used to by now. ah well...
uhm, what else.... Yay Obama. good luck mate.
oh, today i start Kung Fu Stick training...it'll be interesting, i think. it'll also be interesting trying to find somewhere to park in Orpington on a Sunday, but we'll see how that goes... i'll let you guys know how i get on.
currently working on a final comic for Last Years Steel Nation tournament. if y'all remember, i got to the semi-finals last year before being defeated. i kinda dropped it at that point, because i was at camp and didnt have the resources to continue as a spectator/bit-participant, but now i feel as if i need to wrap up my own story line and give a definite conclusion to my bit of the Steel Nation saga. i've done the line-art already, just gotta ink, scan and edit. it's only 11 pages, which is pretty small compared to some of my entries last year!!! ha ha.
well, thats all i have time for today.
i leave you with this video. Its a commercial that's being shown on British TV at the moment. This genuinely happened in a London train station on the 15th of this month. its my favourite advert on tv. please spare two minutes to watch it, its fantastic!
the dancers are professionals hired by t mobile, but everyone else is just honest-to-goodness commuters who just happened to be passing by. it was pretty amazing, and totally unannounced, so all the reactions are genuine too. i love this kind of random british craziness. ha ha ha!!!
if you wanna see how the British Public reacted to such a spectacle (and see what the typical british person is like ^^; ) here's the URL to another video with people's comments...
