I have my friends, my health, a decent steady job and fantastic opportunities laying right before me.
So if i have no complaints why you ask, am i blogging? Because i believe it will be a breath of fresh air for whoever reads this to read a blog that is about the good, the great and the even better =D.
Music - the music in my life is brilliant, i have just bought The Used's, The Gallows and Enter Shikari's new albums, i have had them all for a good few weeks now, and i couldn't be enjoying them more, The Used have always been very close to my heart musically and i couldn't be more impressed with their new work, every song is brilliant and flowing into the next, they are comfortably similar yet unique and different to the previous, they come together to make the perfect album with soft piano and complex lyrics, hard guitar and anthemic chorus'. It is all i could ask for from an old favorites new release =]
My music is going well, then band, we have been writing and working for weeks now and it could not be going better for me, we are all agreeing, the ideas are flowing, we are having the time of our lives, making new, real and refreshing music, something that i think may get people sat up paying attention and asking questions, thats the kind of music i want to be responsible for, not just grabbing a guitar and writing some love song to get rich quick fame and girls, because all that is an empty nothing if it doesn't mean anything to you or anyone else, it needs impact, it needs to make people feel, be it happy, sad, angry, inquisitive, it needs feeling.
Work - I love my work, i get payed a decent wage, i work hard but with some fantastic people whom i can spend a whole day laughing and joking with, i believe if you can wake up in the morning and want to go to work, and come home and feel like you have had a good day with some better friends, and be getting payed for it, then you have won. My modeling is also going very well, after recently moving to a new agency the work is flooding it, castings here meetings there auditions in Liverpool, all exciting stuff, great experience and good to keep me on my toes, the most recent audition, in Liverpool, was one for a new BBC drama called Anubis House which is based on 8 teenagers, 4 boys, 4 girls; living in a boarding house together, the story follows their lives, loves and adventures. I woke up at 6am on Friday, got the 7 o'clock train from Witham station to London Liverpool street, took the tube to Euston and got on the 8:45 train to Liverpool Lime Street, a 3 hour journey, accompanied by my ipod and a book i set off. I arrived in Liverpool at 11:45 and took a taxi to Lime Pictures, a production company for the BBC currently on the rise after its roaring success' with Hollyoaks and Wire in the Blood, it is the production company behind many BBC hits and is a growing empire. I was very excited to have the opportunity to audition in front of such a prestigious panel and i met some brilliant people. I auditioned with a great bunch of guys and girls all very interesting and talented, it was a welcome break from most commercial castings, at which you sit in a room filled with people who look like you and hate you. The people at this audition where genuine, interesting and nice, we all talked for hours whilst we were in the waiting room between reads, it boiled down to 5 of us going for 3 parts, now im no mathematician but i make that over a 50% chance of landing this job =D. I will find out tomorrow if i have been cast for the part or not, when i get the call not only will i be discovering whether i have the job or not, but also i will be discovering the next 6 months of my life as i will have to move to Liverpool, on my own to film for 6 months, i will have to drop everything that is norm in my life right now, for something completely different and new. I cant wait! Fingers crossed.
Love - Love right now is as rocky as it has been and ever will be, love is never smooth, thats the point, we only love for excitement and hardship of it all. Have i ever been in love? Who knows, how do you judge it? I certainly don't know. There is a girl who i am mad for, she is brilliant, funny, interesting, genuine, unique, gorgeous and just perfect, she is, i would consider, a very close friend. She wont even give me a second look :/, it gets to me, but i don't get myself down over it, i value her friendship more than i value most things in my life, she means the world to me and i love her company and just being with her even as a friend. I know she means so much more to me than i do or ever will to her, but im okay with that, i guess i like the feeling of having someone that means so much, someone i can talk to and just smile, no matter what's going on, i will always talk to her with a huge smile on my face, i can see a picture of her and just be happy. I feel that if i can have that and her fantastic friendship, then i can handle her not requiting the feelings i have and me not meaning as much to her as she does to me.
In conclusion
Lifes good =]
So i will enjoy the ride and all it throws at me in these next few weeks.
Ears Pinned, Eyes Peeled.
Goodnight =]
