"you know... you know what it feels like when all your teeth are falling out really slowly and you don't realize and then you notice that, well, they're really far apart. And then one day... you don't have any teeth anymore."

Whilst I should be doing work.

I'm looking up pictures of Storm Troopers. Only 467 words to go.

Weekend off work 3.

How to be a graphic designer, according to my tutors. Sounds about right.

Weekend off work 2.

I love this film and I love these posters.

Weekend off work 1.

Its funny because its true.

Three things I want to watch right now.

Things of general interest.

A pretty cute site for the up-coming Foals album.

Indie/comic book movie directed by none other than Edgar Wright (Shaun of the dead/Hot Fuzz).

This is really just quite beautiful.

Meanwhile in Newcastle.

I've never been to a gig where every single song makes the hair on my neck stand up, until last night.

Frank Turner at Northumbria University was amazing, with support from the excellent Chuck Ragan and Crazy arms. I've listened to Frank for a while now and seeing him live in such an intimate gig was just so so good.

I also found out two things.

1. I love live music
2. You know you're a graphics student when you buy a t-shirt because of the design, not because of which band it is.

Screaming and traffic cones.

I went to see Underoath last night, they were pretty fucking good, but they would have been so much better if they hadn't just played everything off their newest album. I totally understand that they can't rely on those old songs forever, but hearing boy brushed in red live would have made my year. We are the ocean lived up to my expectations, having got to know a few more songs since seeing them last, but now i'm psyched up to see Frank Turner at Newcastle tomorrow because he's amazing and I love him.

I'm sat in Leeds at the minute thinking about making a start on the day, which will involve waking Jade up and texting Rob. I thought i'd have something deep and meaningful to reflect on but all realised is I think Leeds is my favorite place I frequent, even though I dont frequent it often enough.

Ps. I've found so much junk for the urban project, its not all going to fit on my scanner. Yay!

March 12th

Tomorrow night

Circle pits and sing alongs. Lets fucking go.

Confidence is a must.

Everything has its downsides.

March 11th.

Urban Discovery.

March 10th

March 9th

For my new brief (the last this year) I have chosen to look at the items that are left around an urban environment, the tiny details that make up the scenery that we never really pay attention to. Everything has a story, where it started and how it got there, and I want to explore that. For example, I found the paper flower on March 9th in the womens toilets at the bar where I work whilst I was cleaning. Who made it? Left it there? Was it on purpose or by accident? Its all pretty interesting.

Sunday nights sat in the dark.

You dont fail when you fall, You fail when you dont get back up.
