FREEDOM AND ALL IT'S GLORIOUS GLORIES

Friends and fiends, I am officially on my summer holidays!! This means that I have more time to do nothing. With this in mind, I shall try my utmost to have regular blog posts but I can make no promises as when I do something during summer, it usually takes up a full day.

Anyway down to business, to celebrate my freedom from the tyrant clutches of revision and exams Matthew McConnell (small, cute but with a dark side) and I decided to go down to Annalong Church hall were Trevor the Trampets cousin lives. We used him for a while then decided to attempt to knock each other the gymnastics box using various objects. This video is rather long and it may have been a "you have to be there" event to find it amusing but I suppose if you gain pleasure from watching the superior male species in pain, then you might like it. Here it is anyway, enjoy.

The white balls, during the "dodge ball" game;

Before you think I'm a giant pansy, words cannot describe how painful and stingy those white balls were. They were crappy, cheap, thick, hard plastic with a very small amount of air in them to keep their shape. The only way I can describe the pain is; imagine giving birth to a bowling ball, covered in razor blades, through your mouth, while being stabbed in the eye with a needle. That's not even an over reaction, they were torment. Here is a rough sketch at what they would look and feel like;

Moving on, I have a few experiments and videos brewing in my mind. Firstly I have to decide if they are physically do-able, secondly for some of them I need equipment I do not have in my possession, so I'll have to get in contact with my contacts and see what I can muster together, and finally I need good (moderately dry) whether for most of them. Also in my videos, I have decided to make up a few characters, just cause it makes making them less boring. From the feedback I have received, particularly from Emma Jeffery (who reads this without subscribing, CREEP) the French accent guy was even more creepy than the Sex Appeal guy (very inventive names, I know) so I apologies if I creep you out, but tough, the French guy will return as his voice is easy to do and sustain.

Game of Thrones. I freaking love it and from what I hear, a few of you love it too. The first season just ended with literally the weirdest image I have ever witnessed in all my days (I'll not ruin it for anyone planning on watching it). I get the feeling that everything is leading up to one huge ass battle in the next season and I really, really, reallllllly hope they actually show the battle as that was the down fall for the series "Rome", anyone who watched it (which you shouldn't have because it's a very, very naughty show) will know what I'm talking about. It had a brilliant build up to a war, then skipped the battle showed the aftermath, Game of Thrones better not be the same.

During one of my breaks, while still revising, I decided to set a pen lid on my desk and balanced three rubbers on top.

 From their it developed into one of my proudest creations and I promise you, not a single snippet of blu tack, glue or any other sticking implement was used. Here is the evolution of the process;

The MASTERPIECE. I call it "Pen lid with things on top of it"

It includes a pen lid, 2 rubbers, a 15cm ruler, an inhaler, 2 cd's and a white board marker.

Ladies, try telling me you're not swooning over the thought of me after seeing my skills.

Tomorrow I get my first Nigeria injections, YAY *breaks down into tears* but on the upside, Stratforders, who are all super mega awesome, Conor and I will be completing the Stratford video tomorrow as well and from what I've been told, we might be going to the diamond (Cowan and Taylor included) or somewhere such as that to view the finished product, so watch this space.

Apologies if this has not been a good post, it seems very sporadic and unfocused but hopefully I'll get back into the swing of things again soon.
