A Break

So I'm at my dads for the weekend to babysit and it's actually been quite fun and cheered me up!

We directed the boot of my dads car in order to make things fit; it was like a game of tetras that involved a saw. No, really.



We had a go on my guitar and i played on my dads; its beautiful an done day i shall own one like it! Its beautiful; Its a PRS and i want to play it all day! 


I also found the strangest book ever...

Anyway I think sometimes it's good to take a break; the weekend has been really stressful and really relaxing at the same time, I have no idea how that works! What have you been up to this weekend? And does anyone have tumblr? http://ramblingsoflu.tumblr.com/ Hit me up!

Much love

Every Now and Again

Every now and again right....things get a bit complicated. Like right now I have AS levels to revise for, business deadlines due and my friends are all being complicated.

The way I look at things i'd rather go through life taking it easy and being laid back; in my opinion you only get 1 who at life so you have to make it count!

Some people like to dramatise things when sometimes you just have to let stuff go. Who cares if 'he said that' or 'she said this'? Is it going to matter what they said in 5 years time? If the answer is no, sit back, relax and let things blow over. If its yes then you may want to speak to some people or think stuff over.

The part where people go wrong is the 'is it going to matter in 5 years time?' part. This is because they  are being dramatic. If people employed some perspective and common sense they would see that half the stuff that happens in life WILL NOT MATTER in a few years. Or even a few months.

So the moral of the story is chill the fuck out. Life is hard enough already why make it harder for yourself?

*I swear happiness and the sun will be fully employed next time and rants will be gone*

Revision Sucks.

So yesterday I realised I really REALLY REALLY REALLY need to start some revision for my Psychology and RE A levels. I had the house to myself for the whole day so manoeuvred myself downstairs and planted myself on the sofa. For all of 3 minutes i was productive. And by productive i mean i made coffee. I then successfully managed to procrastinate for a few hours at which point a friend rang and i realised LUNCH TIME. I then set the fire alarm off. I CANNOT COOK! My mum then rang and said they were on their way home. Shocked I looked at the time; it was 10.00PM.

ANNOUNCEMENT! NEW TAG LINE! Lu - Wasting Time Since 1994.

Today I thought "Lets be productive". Ive written 3 revision cards, sorted the many random bits of paper i like to call 'class-notes-that-are-more-like-scribbly-crap', and drank 5 cups of coffee. Maybe tomorrow will go better...

I plan to edit the video I recorded in London soon, continuing with my non-productive streak! Hopefully It will come out as well as I plan! Theres TONES of footage of the first half of my day then i realised my video camera hadn't charged properly so was limited...sad times babe!

Did everyone see that Umbrella Academy was made into a motion comic? Its AMAZING! Watch it HERE! GO GO GO!

Also I've been thinking about tattoos I want and random stuff and I found this amazing tattoo artist called Peter Aurisch. Below is my favourite of his pieces; do you like his work or tattoos? Tell me your opinion because I'm nosey and cool!


Anyway is anyone else busy revising/procrastinating-but-really-meant-to-be-revising? Let me know what you're revising for on TWITTER or comment on this! I will reply to all comments because you can never have enough friends on the internet world! Remember to follow me on twitter and subscribe on YOUTUBE to see my London video!

London!

Helloooooo
I am back from my trip to the wedding; it was fairly uneventful besides a  conversation about sinful contraception from my auntie...AWKWARD! I then had a party to go to in which we surprised my friend with a bass guitar! It was beautiful! All of my guitars are named with labels and all so we all helped choose a name for her bass; Lyn Z (After Lyn Z Way).

As mentioned in my video and previous posts I'm going to London tomorrow for a friends birthday; I plan to film  the day and turn it into a blog entry :) got a lot of places to go all written in a fan-fucking-tastic list! You can all look forward to that! It should be a good day...hopefully the weather gets better!

And happy birthday to Gerard Way; I hope he had a wonderful day, twitter has been going MAD!

anyways, look forward to my new video, and much love

With A Cherry On Top!

I have had an amazing day in Brighton with mr friends; beautiful weather, beautiful purchases and funny times! We did so much walking and went to the beach 3 times! I also managed to buy Alex Days Single Lady Godiva; I really hope he gets into the charts, it's a catchy song and he deserves it! Check it out HERE if you haven't heard it! I was also lucky enough to get one of the signed copies; THANK YOU ALEX! WOOO!

I also got a lovely surprise when MapYourVote sent me a very grateful email for helping to promote their website! It's really good fun and I feel so flattered to have been written too :3 Please check them out if you have a chance; its well worth it!

Getting my hair done tomorrow and chilling with my friends; let me know what you're doing over the holidays!

Much love

Parties All Round!

Yesterday I went to my Nans very late 80th party. It was at an amazingly posh place that looked like a stately home! I though I was going to be kicked out for wearing converse!

And my food was elegant quinine style eating there wasn't any of it! I took a picture of my food as you can see; it looks like octopus but i can assure you that its gnocchi because I'm vegetarian and I ate it! Only thing I couldn't work out was why the food was almost sliding off the plate when it arrived! Artistic or failure?

I unfortunately didn't get any nibbles before the meal as they were all crab! When there was something I could eat (bread) I only got one slice, and that bread was the nicest bread I have ever eaten.

I was very nervous about going to this party because I'm really not good with people I don't know. But I survived just fine and avoided the people I didn't know like a ninja!

I have another Party today; my Mums. We're going down to a hotel by the seaside. It should be better that lats nights party because I'll know everyone there and it won't be quite as posh; last night all the mean were in dinner wear (suit, bow tie etc.) as was I! I love my bow tie and braces! Anyway today should be good; it's a nice day for it!

Over and out

Much love

A Message From Bert McCracken

""Vulnerable" is for the real music fans. From the bottom of my heart to yours. My entire life I have always depended on music for safety and comfort. I know there are a lot of people that feel the same way. I wanted to share my passion for music on this record, and also inspire people to follow their dreams no matter what the cost. Please enjoy.

Love, 
Bert"

Reading, London and Muse



My new video blog talking about my music tech interview, Muse, The Used (again!), Reading and Leeds and a really weird story! Anyway, enjoy, i'll make another blog soon.

Much Love

Music Tech

For those of you interested and for those of you that wished me luck; the music interview went well! The course sounds absolutely amazing and I will start it at the end of this year hopefully. The course can be done for one year which would fit in with the end of my other courses but I think i'll carry it on for the next year even though I will have finished my other courses by then because it sounds so amazing.

Im seriously excited! Thank you for the good lucks :)

Much love

Interviewwww

Tomorrow I have a meeting with the music tech teacher at my school; this will hopefully either determine if i can get on the course next year or will just be a load of fact and figures. I really want to do well; this means so much to me! I have a busy week despite it almost being the easter holidays. I have about 5 deadlines this week and more.

I want to record another video already; the few responses i have got have all been positive and i really appreciate all of them! I already have one subscriber which i know is nothing, but i really appreciate it! Once I have these deadline to the ay I can record another video; i may even do it if i haven't got the deadline sorted! I already know what i want to talk about!
