Absence

  • Mood: Joy
  • Reading: The Color Purple
  • Watching: Scrubs
I haven't written poetry in so long I almost feel like it's escaped me, I've lost the knack, not the inspiration, maybe just the time to convert my thoughts into something so aesthetically cryptic. But coming on here again after so long makes me so sad that my degree seems to have consumed my life.

I miss writing. Maybe some day I'll get back to it.

MUSE

  • Listening to: Citizen Erased - Muse
  • Reading: The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde

I cannot believe how fucking awesome they were... seriously, there is no word on earth to describe it. The whole of Saturday passed by in a sort of daze - while they were playing it didn't even feel like I was there!
We got there like 5 hours before the gates opened... so we had a veeery long wait. We even resorted to picking indivdual sesame seeds off hot dogs just to pass the time... now that is extreme!
When we finally got inside, we were right at the front of the Golden Circles, we only had a few lines of people to the front and to the side - which was immense considering there was about 80,000 or so people there! As the tension and exciement grew, we ended up with soem idiots trying to push their way to the front, to which we responded with copious elbowing. I hate people like that, for god's sake face it, you didn't get there in time, so get lost, some of us had to work for our place (well not exactly work, but suffer huuuuuge boredom!).
So eventually, Muse entered from the centre of the stadium in a large puff of smoke, confetti, and classical music. You've got to love their style! And they walked down the walkway to the stage. I got within 2 metres of MUSE :excited: I am still in shock.
They opened with Knights of Cydonia - one of my favourites off their newest album, although I think it's a better closing track than opening... but hey. The stage was amazing, huge screens blasting the words of Knights of Cydonia, satellite dishes, crazy lights and the best graphics you'll ever see at a concert.
They played Citizen Erased and it was epic... that song is just overwhelming live, it never stood out so much on CD.
They played so many of their best songs... all the hardcore fans who went on Saturday definitely got what they deserved for buying their tickets first (we got ours on the pre-release day).
There were a few idiots who decided to start mosh circles - which did almost spoil it a bit, but Muse's talent and my sheer awe at them overcame all that rubbish!
Matt Bellamy is actually a god (I don't care if that's blasphemous), it was so worth completely wiping out my money supplies to stay in london for the weekend, and sacrificing revision for my exams (whoops). What other band had acrobats hanging from balloons at their concerts?? Being so close I got some good close ups of them... I always take crap videos though because my arms start to ache from holding up the camera lol!


I can't wait for the DVD to come out!!

And for exams to be over of course... today's english lit wasnt too brill, I really think all my revision power has burnt out... I just havent done as much as I should.
It'll all be fine!


But anyway besides muse-ness. And the horrid exams, the past week has been really good.

Amuse me. And hope you're all ok :)

Sorry guys I am a ghost of deviant art...

And I will post a poem right now if I can summon the energy to go upstairs and get it... right I'm going... oh the effort lol.

Well things have been hectic a bit recently, I spent the easter holidays sleeping... what's wrong with not seeing the hours before 12 each day... I have to say getting up at 7 for school is wrong - and bring on study leave!

I can officially say I'm sick of A Levels now, its got to the point where I can't be bothered to start trying to get to the root of what I'm doing, they are just damn hard! It'll all be ok though, my english language investigation is thank god finally over (I hope), and seriously if you realised the unwarranted stress that has caused me you'd be celebrating with me (champagne anyone??)

I accepted my university offers, firm is york (AAA) and insurance Newcastle(AAB) so all is wlel with the future me hopes! I ahve fallen in love with York I'm so excited!

Went to see two of my best friends perform in their A level music recitals today. They were amazing, they both have their grade 8 distinctions. It's so amazing to know people who have so much talent and intelligence - they made me truly amazed to know them :) It's really interesting to think about how people you know affect your life. Because we're all leaving school soon I'm going through a really happy stage (not that I'm not generally a happy person), I keep making the most of knowing the people I know. There's all the traditions of the lunch time crew, the two crews for my two sets of frees, the lessons etc. It's gonna feel so weird that I have to make new traditions with people who right now I don't even know exist!


Anyway, now for that poem

Hope everyone is in a happy mood too :)

Well... I posted my last journal entry in August, dear me, I think i've been a bit neglectful! Sorry!

I have actually written 2 poems in the past month (believe me thats a lot considering i wrote nothing for about 5 months!). I shall get them up here soon, I'm sorry they wont really be up to the standard of some of my others!

How is everyone? I am so sorry I need to look at deviations... I currently have 900 :| that's bad isn't it??

Well I havent really had much interesting go on recently. Except I suppose getting in to university and things! The Oxford dream didnt really happen lol, but I had the best time at interviews in December! I got into York though which was my second choice, so hopefully I'll go there, I have to get three As. It's pretty exciting though finding out where we all might end up in a few months' time! School is officially a drag now... the children are so up themselves, they have no respect for sixth formers, its despicable!

I'm counting down to being 18 now, it;'s not until may but im sick of not being able to go out for fear of being Id'ed, it doesnt help I look about twelve too :P But anyway the 18th parties have been fun you cant beat a good dance and a good drinking sesh.

Going to see Little man Tate tomorrow, yaaaaaaay. And if you don't know who they are then well, you're probably not the only one lol!

I never wrote about going to see Muse last November either. One word doesnt voer it but it comes close AMAZING!!! Everyone else who went will know what I mean, you have to go to know. The rhyme was good there! Whey.

Anyway I shall leave now.

And just remember: Poncho's make you happy (The Mighty Boosh ROCKS).

Results!!!!

Fri Aug 18, 2006, 5:30 AM
'Hold on to your kite, but just don't let me down'

:D :D :D :D

Well you can safely say that yesterday was a great great day!
I was soooo worried about results, and it was so weird, because everything went the opposite to how I expected, I thought I'd done awfully in English Language and brilliantly in French!
So I go and get my results... and it turns out I got:

Maths (this was the one I was most shocked and excited about!) : an A, and I only dropped three marks in all three exams :jawdrop:
English Lit (again shocked) : an A, full marks in both exams, I only lost marks in my January coursework :jawdrop:
English Lang (amazed) : an A, full marks on the exam I thought went the worst out of all exams, and really high marks on other modules.
French (very proud of the amazing range of results here) : a B, I thought this exam went amazingly, and managed to get an E on one paper, rock on! I only passed it by 3 marks! But hey I still scraped a B so I'm still ecstatic! I was so proud of that E though, seen as I've never got one before!
General Studies: The most pointless subject ever (excluding key skills) and I didn't do any work, but still managed to get full marks in two exams and get an A, to be quite honest that is very sad... lol! doesn't dampen the happiness though, I wanted that A!

So yeah, basically yesterday I wanted to jump up and down all day, I'm still in disbelief, I keep thinking someone is going to send me a letter to say that actually they gave me the wrong results!

Then it was Sarah's ~Salix02's house for a partaaaaay. Which was excellent. We played lots of random games, I took some fantastic random photos of my friends, yeah stuff the art photography, silliness is so much funner lol (joke), aww my friends make me laugh so much! But yeah this summer holiday has been the best ever, I haven't had time to be bored I've been constantly busy or seeing friends and stuff and living at other people's houses! But we played hide and seek yesterday, we had some immense hiding places, and I think I was officially one of the worst seekers in the end (I didn't see :spunkiemunkie: laid out on the kitchen top), although in my defence it was dark! Then played twister, which made me feel like all my limbs we about to be wrenched off... ow!!! Then watched White Noise, we thought it was crap when we went to the cinema, but when we actually watched it properly it's actually quite freaky... just shows how talking over a film affects your view of it!

Aaaaaaaaanyway work later today and then tomoro another party :D and driving lesson later today as wlel, so yeaaah Rock on....

Hope everyone else who got results yesterday did really well! And I didn't mean to sound gloaty up there, I am shocked and amazed and just wanted to share it lol. Anyway I'll shut up now!
