Argh.

Ignore the huge gap on the previous post. It always does this when I post any HTML template or whatever. >.<

And I don't know how to change it :(

Suggestions?

I've realised that I haven't created any icons in possibly months, mainly because most of them are crap.

Here are few I made today :)

1-2 Ian Curtis
3-4 Andrew VanWyngarden, MGMT
5 Adam Green
6-10 Beirut/Zach Condon
11 Albert Hammond, Jr.
12-15 Ezra Koenig/Vampire Weekend
16 Conor Oberst

Stop Me!

I am spending all my pennies on music. From tomorrow, if I even attempt to enter a record shop, you have my permission to steer me away, or flick me in the forehead if it comes to the worst.

My birthday is in 24 days! This calls for a merry jig around the room.

And my monkey bracelet is Teh Coolest. Far cooler than yours. It does the can-can and several karate moves, only rivalled by the guitar-busking-man in Manchester today who was pulling some groovy shapes :) And the jamming band were packing up as we walked past them for perhaps the third time. Alas. I was rather enjoying their music. :)

I bought the new Conor Oberst album. This calls for an even merrier jig. I have been waiting for this and now it is in my hands. He looks like a sleepy sausage on the cover art though, which can only be a good thing.
I also bought Fleet Foxes debut on the strength of one song (which filled my heart with joy) but I thought it was a wonderful song. I shall listen to the album in full after the Conor Oberst one, which is playing im Moment. Here is a link --> CLICK!


And I got Vampire Weekend on the strengh of three songs. I have heard only good things from them though so methinks it shall be a good listen :) And Ezra Koenig has beautiful coloured eyes. Indeed. Here is a funny video review I found - mainy because it is in pirate talk. Click? Arr me hearties.



That is all for today. I shall post some photographs from my jollies soon, if and when I remember.

On another note; my shoulder looks like that of a very old scaly dragon. Ew. Let that be a lesson to ye all. If you have unbelievably stupidly pale skin like me - be warned of the sun. >.< style="color: rgb(102, 0, 204);"> ONE HOUR and have suffered bad burns to my back and shoulders and arms. Joy of joys. When people say life isn't fair - this is what they meant. Which leads to the question, what if you were very pale and you lived in a very hot country? What would you do then? Hmm...

Yes, I know

I know I've just posted about five minutes ago but I had a brainwave.

Have you ever seen PostSecret or visited LJSecret?

I was thinking, we could have the same idea with the PBB by employing our Photoshop skills and making some secrets of our own :)

By replying to a blog post anonymously with a link to an image, it shall all remain anonymous (or we could just know who posted it i it isn't too bad).

I think it would be a fun idea but what do you guys think?

Sunny Afternoon

Half a day left of year 12 and I most certainly do not feel in the summery mood that I am obliged to feel come this time of the year.

This is possibly because it's raining and I got a big raindrop in my eye while looking up to the skies.

I'm going on holiday and I really don't want to. Spending two weeks on a beach is my idea of hell, especially as I'm going with my family. Is it so bad that I don't want to go?

We should arrange a PBB holiday next year - it would be super awesome :)

There's too many loose ends this year - I need to tie them up quicksmart. I feel the frayed threads are blowing around in the wind and I can't reach out to pull them all together.
From now on, everything is out of my hands.

I found a really good song so I'll post some excerpts. It's by The Smiths :)



I know it's over
And it never really began
But in my heart it was so real
And you even spoke to me and said:

"If you're so funny
Then why are you on your own tonight?
And if you're so clever
Then why are you on your own tonight?
If you're so very entertaining
Then why are you on your own tonight?
If you're so very good looking
Why do you sleep alone tonight?
I know because tonight is just like any other night
That's why you're on your own tonight
With your triumphs and your charms
While they are in each other's arms"

Love is natural and real
But not for you, my love
Not tonight my love
Love is natural and real
But not for such as you and I, my love

Syd Barrett

Two years yesterday since Syd Barrett died.

"Won't you miss me? Wouldn't you miss me at all?"

Yes, yes we do...
