Overdue....

Okay so it's not overdue but....I've just (believe it or not) listened to ''One Day Like This'' by Elbow for the first time since Bestival last year and....Jesus Christ, it made the hairs stand on end, it gave me the biggest goosebumps.
It was the song that closed....Possibly one of the best weekends of my life!

It just brought back all the awesome memories of that weekend at Bestival, the amazing people I was with, the music we experienced, the dancing we did, the laughs we laughed, the silly moments we had, the costumes, the drugs we (I) experienced haha (Sorry Tom, I know you don't approve) the sweet taste of cider and Jaiger in the sunshine, the sunshine in general, the face painting, the grass and NOT MUD!

I just wanted to write it down because that weekend was one I hope I shall never forget and Elbow closing it was the most perfect way to end it, here's to this year's and it being even better :)

Tom is probably (while the other ones the other side of the planet) my best friend.

He takes me out, buys me food, cooks me dinner, makes me awesome little things to cheer me up, takes me to gigs, buys me drinks, RUNS from Hayleys HQ in Uxbridge whilst drunk to Hillingdon hospital to come and see me whilst i was being treated for a peanut reaction, he always keeps me up to date with music and is probably the real reason my taste in music is so good :P, he invites me to pretty much everything he does (except go and see Amy but that's fine.... I don't think I'd want to be a third leg when that happens) and here's the cliche bit.... He'll always be honest with me even if he knows it's not what I want to hear, he cheers me up and always makes me feel better about things, he will actually genuinly spend time with me and want to, then to go and top it off (make the whole ''being Tom's friend'' experience a whole lot better) He's got bear banter aswel.
Quite simply we have a laugh together and he's awesome to be around....
I can't help but admit to being shit with him, I'm never nasty. I guess I'm just selfish. Tom does so much for me and I do nothing in return other than just ''be there'' which is never enough considering how well he treats me and how much he thinks of me (even though he would never admit to that, ha!) I guess, I want him to know I do appreciate everything he's ever done and does for me, I am admitting to being selfish... This shall change. I've made a promise to myself to do so, I do find it hard to change myself as a person because I'm quite content with how I am, but I shall make an exception in Tom's case because I'm not content with how I behave with him, he deserves a better friend than me or at least deserves me being a better friend.

This bring me to my next point about Tom.... His new lady friend, I like her and I'm over the moon and happy he's met her, though I can't help but be a little worried that, he's now going to be one of those friends who won't and can't do anything because he's now in a relationship.... (if you're reading this Tom, I wasen't like that and you know full well I wasen't) I'm scared I'm going to loose him, I don't think I will because he's not that sort of person but... I had a conversation with him the other day about it and he dicked around by saying he's gone and can't be bothered with me anymore. I wasen't sure wether he was joking or not and it's played on my mind.

Tom's the only true friend I really have, so I'm fucked! if he does happen to turn into a relationship freak and if he meant what he said.

So, Moral of the blog: I'm aware I treat Tom much shitter than he treat's me, I am sorry that's how I am but I will change and make a better effort (and buy him things! I have brought him an awesome gift but I'm too lazy to send it in the post or to carry it around with me when I'm out with him)

.... One day Tom will be King dontchaknow and then he won't need me to be nice at all :)

(If he reads this I shall get constant reminders of it all, be called gay and probably never live it all down. Nice!)

Jeff.

For those of you who don't know.... This is Jeff and I.
Jeff is my camera and my buddy, he comes with me everywhere I go now :) If you would like to know why he's called Jeff.... I can't give you any information. It's a name my best friend picked for him and it's stuck ever since, so take it up with her :)



Tom loves Jeff too.

Young Lions

I'm in love with this band, this song, that album and these lyrics. It couldn't be more....Spot on!
The Maccabees - Young Lions.

Roses in the car
Bony saddle, bony street
Corrugated iron sheet
This bed is not concrete
This bed in which you sleep
Flesh is flesh til blood runs cold
And blood is blood, so I am told

Your carbon makes a star
And after all, that's all we are
After all, that's all we are
That's all we are

All these young men, these young lions
You don't know if it's true
Or if to believe in you
There are tunnels through the stone
Where weaker hearts have made a home

Their roses in a car
And after all that's all we are
After all that's all we are And isn't it bizarre
The adults that we are
Still playing
Follow the leader

Body don't break
Til broken
Body gonna make
Another body
Don't want to be the last to leave

SHIT!!!

Anyone who knows me, understands how much I LOATHE Rihanna....But, and I really hate saying this....Her new song ''Rude Boy'' is actually....Really fucking good.
SHIT, there...I said it, I can't help but sing along to it and actually genuinely enjoy it....
Man....I'm never going to live this down.
Maybe I'm over reacting with how I think everyone is going to react. Still. I apologise to anyone who thought I had any taste!! I will now have to work for my ''great musical status'' (if I may say so myself..) to remain.
