Journal Entry: Thu May 8, 2008, 11:36 AM
JournalJournal

Ok then, time for a new journal! Sorry I was so lax updating it recently, I've just been so swamped with uni work its unreal, but I finish tomorrow! yay! (Well till September anyway :))

What can we say about the past two months, well to be quite honest not a lot has happened. Nothing of any great importance anyway. I bought myself a car for the first time, and that did feel very good, finally having a set of wheels to call my own :) Her name is Roxy and I love her :) see her here Isn't she nice?

Anyway, other things....other things. Ok, so I dont have anything else to talk about! Sorry. Nothing really happens to me, hopefully over summer I'll have a lot of opportunities to better my photography skills with trips and gigs and what not. Until you'll just have tu put up with my gallery as it is now :)

I did update the files for thi journal if anyone wants to use it, its not got all the images for titles and I've changed the way the titles work now, so they are more deviantART like. The links at the bottom of this journal if you want to check it out.
Nothing is really happening in my life at the minute, I lead a very boring existence, but this does mean that I have a lot more time for being on here and being out and about with my camera for all you lovely people to see what I can do!
FeatureFeature

This months feature is :icontrixypixie:*TrixyPixie Trixypixie is one of the best photographers I watch, her wide array of skills always astounds me. I've decided to feature six of her pieces because I just couldn't get the number down any more! I strongly advice you all to go and check out her gallery, its mind blowing.

The other night when I was playing GTA4 with you, I was talking, could you hear me?

I think you need a headset to be able to listen to people.
Get a USB headset, GTA4 multiplayer free roam is INSANE!

OOHWDOOHOWP it's sooo fun!

I can try and make you that stamp if you wish? (If you can get me the image that you desire)

All the macro work I've actually done so far is with the kit lens that came with my 400D :) Just got a nifty little £5 extension tube off eBay and it works like a dream!

You're welcome =] I love it! I'd love to be able to get to somewhere like that to get the same sort of photo myself. The roads around here are pretty quiet, and the closest motorway is like 45 minutes away. I'll get out there eventually though!

I accepted your add on PS3.
I didn't write back because I hate writing using the joystick. Haha.

I'm not on a lot, but I'm signed in whenever my PS3 is on.

My playstation name is NirvanaAUS
I should havee made a HIM related name haha.


In regards to HIM, yes. their early stuff like greatest love songs 666
that stuff was excellent. venus doom and dark light, theyre okay BUT theyre too 'american' it sound like HIM tried to target american audiences and that annoys me.
it also saddens me how the whole band has been 'americanised'.
long story. but still theyre an excellent band.
find a song called, i've crossed oceans of wine to find you.
it would be among my fave songs. its not 'metal' or heavy at all.
i cant find the word to describe it but its just an incedible song.

I have indeed :) I was going to go and see them a few years ago, couldn't get there though :( Not a huge fan of the latest album of all the unreleased versions of the songs, hoping they will get back to being more like what they were on the Greatest Lovesongs Vol 666 album :)

Its like love+metal+awesome melodies, best band ever.
