During the time away i have changed dramatically, i'm definately not the same person i was when i left. It's been long and tedious but we've finally moved house, got the internet sorted and i have changed and grown so much i can hardly relate to the person i was before. There have been a lot of negative experiences and a lot of positive ones too. Going to head over to my deviations in the next couple of days, i'm quite scared to re-discover the person i was before, if i'm honest.

Anyone who may check this, please, please give me a shout!

I don't know how i feel about this place now! Seems very surreal being back!

Anyway, the point is i'm still alive and really miss this place. I have a shit ton of comments etc to get through when i eventually get the PC sorted at home. Its being a right shit. And one hour now and then at the library aint too feasible to sift through all the comments, so appologies for that, i will get on it eventually!

Concerning the title; I saw Melt Banana in London on Wednesday and, needless to say, it was fucking incredible. For those of you who don't know, check them out and get Happy. Or Even More Happy if your feeling pretty good already. But know that nothing compares to their live set.

Anyone else to to this gig?

Gotta love the Norma Jean.

This is another update to let the few people that may read this know that, yes, i am in fact still kickin' it. On the Library's PC. On broadband. God i miss the internet. And yes, mine is still fucked.

There has been writing, but i doubt it'll be uploaded anytime soon. *fingers placed very closely together*


Hope everyone is well, and if you comment this, don't be offended if i don't reply...for another 2 months!

Reason for abscence: PC is fucked. Again.

Writing: Tedious. Almost non-existant.



Thats about all i have time for right now, keep on keeping on people, i will be back.

Writing has been going ok-ish. On and Off. More often Off. Bugger. However, there are things that have been piling up, so there will be a lot for you to read, although they are short, so its not all bad.


Moving house soon. Within the next few months, i expect, so i don't know how things writing wise and dA-esque are going to go. Watch this spot.

Oh yeah, i almost forgot: Christmas, New Year's blah blah blah enjoyable. What a summary!

*fingers crossed that this actually submits and doesn't just list things i've been reading/watching etc.*

PS! I have submitted a piece today! So check that out! Bitches!

''The perverted fear of violence

I will love them forever. Heard it on the radio today whilst driving back from Dad's. Some of the best lyrics i've heard on the rdaio for a long-long time.

Also expect an up-date containing the (mis?)adventures of me my bro and Dad in London yesterday (Wednesday). Good times!

Oh man, today i've been listening to Architects's Nightmares (their first mini album, before they went all shitty and scene on us all. Let down guys, let down.) and i've forgotten just how fucking awesome this record is. Perhaps i have such fond memories because of all the stupid drunk antics me and my friends used to get up to whilst listening to it. Either way, its still bloody excellent.

For those that don't know, they're a Botch/Converge/Dillinger-esque band from brighton with masive overtones of Epic. Good shiz (this one anyway) that doesn't point the finger directly at its influences like most bands in that vein do.

If you do check them out, i'de steer clear of their new stuff, Nightmares is where its at! Get the song ''In the Desert'' first. Not the pudding desert/dessert though, cause that would be a bit rubbish. I should really know how to spell that by now. The one with Cactuses and sand and where its generally hot all day and shit like that. You know the one!

Apart from that, operations have been continuing as usual.

Hope everyone is having a good day

''Theres more to life than robbing banks!!!'' Oh man, so good!

Cheers to all those that have taken part so far!

Last night i started editing the infamous (in my eyes at least) Cannabalism. Its quite stunning how much better i've become after writing that. So yeah, if i can make it really awesome, i'll be removing the original deviation in order to try and sell it to relevant magazines. Of course, it will need to be longer in order to establish itself properly, and if people are willing to have a read through after the second draft (door open ) then that would be really cool. I already know of two or three people that i'm going to ask to read it, but they don't know it yet. Thanks Mr. King for making me take my writing seriously.

I pretty much have the main crux for my NaNo this year. Its one i was reminded of after scanning my (small) collection of books last night. This means that i may not be writing much until then, lest it over-lap into November, handling two projects is just asking too much of an amateur such as myself.

I'm going to submit a small piece i constructed during work today into my scraps, which isn't long enough to put anywhere else. It made me laugh into my vegetable Chilli anyway.

Am i the only one that thinks of colours that bleong to swear words? Y'know like days of the week, only swearing. Eg Fuck is Orange, Shit is Green (strangely) and C*nt is Purple. I guess it brings a whole new meaning to colourful language...

I think thats pretty much it for now...

Was my Birthday last Friday, 19 years and it seems like i've been around for much longer. Melt-Banana keeps me youthful though!

Some awesome stuff has been going on in my soggy gray recently, some cool ideas have developed recently, and i've been writing for the past couple of days, which is always good. I posted a couple Deviations, so go check those out if you've not already. Yes that was an order.

NaNo is approaching again and i've not really got any ideas for that specifically yet, maybe i'll take one of the ones i've got already and put it in a high interest savings account until September. Who knows.

Been reading through On Writing again by Mr King. It seriously is very empowering, yet so enjopyable to read, all at the same time no less!

Only problem with the gig though was the fucking meatheads that kept jumping into people doing that stupid windmill shit. I ended up having to punch a guy a couple of times in the ribs just to get him to fuck off. Don't get me wrong, i'm not a violent person in the slightest, wuite the contrary infact, but when your being a complete twat and trying to hurt people you deserve to get hurt yourself. Fucking idiots. Since when was music about trying to hurt as many people as you can?

Was pretty happy when they played Eagles become vultures (probably my fave song), the durmming at the beginning was so good live. Even if oyur not a fan of intensely heavy music, you should still download this song, just for the intro.

All in all a good night! ]]> ~timmythemule http://timmythemule.deviantart.com/journal/13495409/ http://timmythemule.deviantart.com/journal/13495409/ Tue, 26 Jun 2007 07:25:18 PDT
-Had my last exam on Thursday, went better than i thought. NO MORE EXAMS! . Got drunk for celebration.

- Its my birthday next Friday. Were going to town. I'm excited. 19 years old!

-Not having to worry about anything for a short while is an absolutely amazing feeling.


-Converge is the Monday before my birthday, which again, is absolutely fantastic 'cause they're one of my fave bands. Its in Brighton, which is a bit of a problem, seeing as the last train back to Eastleigh leaves at 8 even before Converge have started playing. Bugger. Hopefully we can rope Scott into giving us a lift there and back if we can buy his ticket...

-My new Card arrived, so i can buy some stuff (CDs, books, films etc). Gotta save some cash for going to town though.

I swear i had something inportant to say, but its gone. I hope everyone is well.

-Food
-TRAMPOLINES (just as you can't be unhappy in a poncho, you can't not be filled with joy on a trampoline)
-Burnt By the Sun
-Playing drums on your own naked torso
-Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
-Yagermeister and RedBull
-Creative Zen Vision:M White.
- Wii Boxing. For anyone that has it, pretend like your playing drums, its so much easier to win this way.

Some things that aren't so great;

-Rain
-Revision
-sausage meat people
-TV in general
-Uncomfortable chairs

Enjoy!

We shall see. Only problem is that i can't re-take if i do really shite. I have discovered, though, that i fucking love evolutionary psychology, and anything that gives an alternative explanation of why humans are the way we are and how they came to be here and what our ultimate purpose is, if there is any and what god may be or may not be and just philosophy in general. If anyone knows any great books, films etc in that vain, please, please let me know.

Next exam is Business re-take, which i'm gonna have to spend the whole of tommorow cramming for 'cause its on Thursday. I really dispise business this year, and that is the exact reason that i rejected Uni applications. No point in doing something i don't enjoy, unless its absolutely necessary. So a full time job is what i'm gonna be looking for after the exam period. I've decided that i'm going to work full time and take my writing much more seriously, seeing as its something i enjoy so much. I think i really don't mind if i don't have an amazingly paid job, i mean since when have commodities equaled happiness anyway? Doing things you love rather than just filling you life with things, just to fell empty is better surely? We'll see how it goes, maybe i'll apply to do psychology or Media at Uni next year.

Not much else is going on right now, jsut revision and wishing i could be enjoying the weather and getting drunk and stuff. However me and a bunch of people had an actual water fight the other day. Water guns and everything. It was awesome. I love doing shit that makes me feel immature, they're often the most fun and the most enjoyable. The best things in life are free/cheap.

Oh, and i'm going to buy Hot Fuzz when we go shopping for food tonight, AT LAST. Haha, how contradictory considering what i've been saying. Turns out i can't take myself seriously afterall.

Melt Banana are psossibly one of the greatest bands ever. So much energy packed into such a small space and time. Wow. Go check 'em out!

Broke up from college on Thursday, whereas it was technically meant to be Friday, but i just stayed in bed because i have the first two lessons on a Friday morning, and i figured that i wouldn't learn anything, what with it being the last day and all, and i thought sleeping would be a much better waste of my time.

So, it revision for me for the next couple of weeks. Hopefulyy the exams will go well *fingers crossed*.

I submitted somehting today, so go check that out if you havn't already. It's pretty groos.

Not been working on the book since the last update, too much other stuff to be doing right now, getting into the swing of revision now, which is reasuring.

Still not sleeping perfectly, my throat probably being worsened by the smokey atmosphere on Sunday night, but it was totally worth it.

Oh, and if you ever in the Bournemouth area, check out a restraunt called Tapas Plus. Not only is the food fucking incredible, but the cider they do there is just amazing. Seriously. Best i've ever tried. I've just had a pint thanks to mum brining back a couple of bottles after staying at her fiance's, so i'm pretty chuffed

Have fun doing whatever your doing and i'll try and get some more submissions for the next update.

I've started writing a book that in intend to try and get published. Its of the Bizzaro genre, which i'm absolutely loving again, oif late. For definitions of Bizzaro, check out [link]. This is the publisher i intend to send it to, after completeing the interview/submission form. Just thought i should actually have at least one book under my belt before applying, and since i've had this idea for a while, i thought fuck it, why the hell not. So yeah, any excerpts that i post here a going to be weird, i warn you now. Cool.

I've also been going through spells of feeling really down and then feeling good again for a while, and just basically fluctuating between the two. I think it's where i've not been sleeping well, not a lasting thing. Could also be the stress of revision and uncertainty about the future. With just a little help, things should figure themselves out

Also, has anyone read Scar Tissue, it seems like an entertaining read and was jsut wondering if its worth picking up.

Anyway, this is a small up-date because i've been away for a little while.

Wow! I submitted a Deviation! Get me! I love writing in a first person, childish perspective.

Other than that, not been up to much, College and the usual shit, other than getting drunk. Not drank for a about a week now and i don't really miss it either. After Jenny's birthday party, that'll be it. Lets see how long i can last. That makes me sound like a complete Alcy, but i can assure you i'm not. Drinking is just fun

dA is being a bit of a rubbish bastard today, so i'll check out deviations and shiz later this week.

Hope everyone is ok and stuff! Have fun doing whatever your doing!

Also i'm willing to offer the entirety of what i wrote last year, all 16,000 words of it, to anyone that might be interested in reading it. If you are interested note me your e-mail address and i'll send it attached to an e-mail, possibly with some notes explaining certain parts of it, what i drew inspiration from, etc.

The basic idea is that you leave a book in a public place, with details of your user page and whatever inside, and the person to pick it up lets you know that they found it and then you get to see where it has traveled to, etc.

Currently on a bit of a Rage Against The Machine fest. Really enjoying their stuff recently. I can never tell wether people like htem for their catchy tunes, or because they're popular, or for their actual decent value (read: political agenda). I find it ironic that kids as young as 13 walk around with RATM hoodies on because its fashionable, and we all know fashion is part of the capitalist society we live in, yet there are blatant lyrics ridiculing the capitalist regime on many of their songs. Also makes me sad in a way.

Another thing i saw in this vein of irony was that the film Fight Club is produced by Fox, owned by Rupert Murdoch who is a large perptrator of capitalism himself and 'our' obsession with commodities, though this is exactly what the film was speaking out against. I guess no ideal is sacred anymore, in the sense that huge corporations will buy rights to it and fuck everyone over for money.

I guess these things inspired my latest piece too.

If you've not checked either of these guys out, now is the time to do so. Looks like 2007 is shapping up to be another awesome year in music!

So i got a decent set of results from the exams in January exams, 2 Bs and an A in the re-takes i did and an A and a D in the ones done for the first time. Looking to re-take the one i got a D in, but i'm pretty chuffed overall.

Mastodon gig next week too! I'm so excited about this because they're one of my favourite bands AND i couldn't go last time they were touring because it was over 18s only. This is going to be a fucking AMAZING gig, considering the quality of their newest album.

Oh and i wrote something last night, which i suppose must have been when i was half asleep, because i was quite surprised when i found it this morning. I'll post it up, its a bit scary

Speaking of getting pissed, me, Nigel (my brother who's real name is Marc, i won't get into that here) and a few of his friends had a bit of a piss up last night. We had a couple of drinks at the pub, came back here watched a little of the Mighty Moosh( i think its a bit of an aquired taste, much like sushi, which i am only now starting to appreciate the beauty of), had a dance-off to Jimariquai (i have no idea how its spelt) in which i strutted my funky stuff and ended up vomitting into the toilet before dragging myself to my bed. Good times!

I totally want to go on a couple of day trips to large cities this week too, like Brighton or London or something, but no-one has any money We'll see what happens.

A great start to (what'll hopfully be) an even better week.

Allow me to elaborate: I bought three books from Amazon that cost approximately £12, and the fucking charge for delivery was £8. Bastards. That would have been about £5 before. Aah, fuck it, i sound like a pathetic whiny bastard.

The books i bought, by the way, were; Punk Land, Fishy Fleshed(uh-oh, there goes one of the references ) and Razor Wire Pubic Hair. All by Carlton Mellick III. If you've not checked his stuff out, i seriously suggest you do yourself a favour and do so.

Feeling better today, not so ill *hopes he hasn't jinxed it*. Got work tommorow so it'll be interesting to see if that makes it any worse. Or better. Or if it has no effect whatsoever.

I was thinking about posting another exerpt from the NaNo novel, just for something to submit. Maybe.

Been listening to a few tracks by Dalek and Pedestrian; some really cool hip-hop stuff. Not my usual fortay(or however the hell its spelt), but some really good stuff.

I seem to remember that being ill when your a little kid was the greatest thing in the world. You got to stay home from school, eat loads of junk food and get people to do things for you. Now though, being ill really fucking hurts, you still have to do college work and for the most part you have to take care of yourself. Pretty tough deal, huh? I guess the best bit is that you still get to eat loads of junk food, but its payed for with your own money.

I've had a few ideas for some writing that i could be doing, but there have been more important things to do, so that'll probably have to wait till next week (half term. joy!) if i'm still not being plagued by illness.

Anyways, i hope everyone else is healthy and enjoying themselves. Gonna go read more 1984, whilst i wait fro my pizza to cook, i think...

Just something that i felt needed noting. I think i'll start noting random things i hear, read, see in this here journal.

Today i am trying to drag 2,700 words (minimum) from the murky depths of what i've learnt so far this year in Media Studies. I know i shouldn't whine about how aweful it is, seeing as people that have completed disertations for Uni had a much harder time. Anyway here's the title;

How does NME reflect a growing trend for accelerated cultural obsolesence and how does this serve the needs of the publisher and the audience?

Due in on Friday (eep), and, considering i'm ill right now, i'll be lucky if its actually gonna be any good. Good thing its just a draft.

I think my Media teacher is one of the only teachers i have ever truely respected. Sure i've had favourite teachers, but none i've respected so much. He truly is an awesome teacher and person.

One of the other people i respect greatly (this is gonna sound predictable) is Stephen King. Not necessarily for his writing, but for his sucess. He practicaly came from nothing and evolved into such a sucessful person. Pretty respectable, huh?

''adopt a wild orang utan''

And felt pretty disgusted at human's obsessive need to own every last fucking thing on the planet. I'm pretty fucking sick of how fucked the world is at the moment.

Also i cannot stress enough how fucking awesome Carlton Mellick III's work is. Check him out here, but don't be put off by how odd/shit it all sounds, it is actually incredible writing, and probably the most refreshing stuff i've read in a long while. I intend to get more into 'Bizzaro' stuff. Possibly try my hand at writing some too.

1. If you treat people as something great, will they BE great?

2. It takes a greater man to comment on someone's strengths rather than their insecurities.

3. I think the phrase ' I consume, therefore i am' really does apply to contemporary society. Not that i'm not guilty.

Expect an update soon.

]]> ~timmythemule http://timmythemule.deviantart.com/journal/11269353/ http://timmythemule.deviantart.com/journal/11269353/ Mon, 01 Jan 2007 04:06:02 PST The last year went...at a rather sporadic pace, i thought. At parts it was slow, and dragged on, but at others it seemed to fly be so fast you could barely feel the breeze it made as it sped past the side of your face, in a shower of water balloons, eggs and alcohol. In other words the part that went really fast was the summer.

I usually find the New Year period to be a little depressing, for some reason, but this time i'm not too bothered.

So far this year i've been drunk, sworn, peed, kissed practically total strangers (New Year's party at a Uni House, no less), had conversations with some cool new people, spilt booze on my friend's living room carpet (which i cleaned, i'm not that much of an ass hole), had far too little sleep, gotten up before my alarm woke me, watched Ghost In The Shell 2: Innocence, listened to Mastodon, listened to new bands, got excited about going to see Mastodon in March(my ticket arrived the other day, yay!), been hungover, drunk some water, been on the computer, forgotten what i was going to type next, failed to set up an LJ account.

What i plan to do this year; Actually study for exams and stop putting it off like a complete and utter Jockey, go see Mastodon in March, write more (i'm sure i said that last year), finish all the books from last year that i have left over, which involves finishing off the one from last year and starting fresh. Write more Journal entries

So does anyone have any resolutions and stuff like that? Things they want to do, or do differently?

So anyway Happy New Year to everyone who could be arsed to read this far.

HOWEVER. It did serve its purpose, which was to actually start writting something, to actually get something down and to kick me in the fucking arse and stop pretending i'll write a novel one day. So for hat i'm pretty chuffed.

I think it was just a bit of an inconvieniant time for me, what with college work and everything.

Also, i may find that i want to catch up and get it done before the months out, so i havn't failed yet. But it is a lot of pressure off my shoulders and extra work i could have done without.

If your lucky i might even treat you to some(by which i mean a lot) of it via submissions. But i'll try not to give the plot away in any of it. That's a secret

Still doesn't stop me from believing i was deprived

Anyway, NaNo starts TOMMOROW! I've got the beginging of my story pretty much on the imaginary notebook in my head, just need to wait till tommorow to get it onto the damn paper! So eager to get this going. Also my copy of 'No Plot? No Problem!' arrived a few days ago, which i read up till the relevant point (pre- NaNo month) and it had some good pointers in there. Oh its written by the guy who founded NaNo by the way, so it's totaly relevant, which is good! Hopefully i'll be able to crack the 50,000 word deadline. I've been thinking about keeping a day to day dAJournal on it, but not sure if i'll be up to even MORE writing! maybe everyweek...

I spent lunch time today watching previews of Lost S3 in the library at college today, after stumbling ove abc's website, and i have to say it looks fucking awesome! Really can't wait to see it. Damn you Sky!

- - - -

Over the last few days, as well as NP?NP!, i've been reading Street Haunting by Virginia Woolf which is rather good. Tis a collection of some of her essays and short fiction stories, which is pretty cool. I found one particular description that i loved, which i'll leave you with;

''In what crevices and crannies, one might ask, did they lodge, this maimed company of the halt and the blind?''

The National Novel Writing Month. For all you writers out there! I shall be entering this year. It actually couldn't come at a more appropriate time, seeing as i'm lacking motivation in my writing, maybe this will actually give me a kick in the ass and make me get some work done.

50,000 words in one month, here i come!

Also will be uploading some stuff i've written recently, couple of poems and maybe a bit of writing too. Today, if not soonish.

I recently discovered his art when i bought The Mars Volta's new album, and was rather intriguied, so flipped to the back of the cover sheet and discovered Mr Jeff Jordan and his cool surrealist art. I havn't been able to check his work out properly yet, due to rubbishy internet connection, but will hopefully do tommorow at college, if i remember.

Oh and the album wasn't that great by the way, upon first listen, but i havn't given up on it, since i've only listened to it once, and was kinda tired at the time, so i'll try and find a gap in my 'busy'(semi sarcastic Hah) schedule to give it another listen.

Also have a few ideas floating around the cob-webby gray matter that i'll hopefully put on paper soon, oh and i wrote out a bit of a story(tis very short, i don't like the word story, it seems very imature) that i might upload into ma scraps, if ya lucky.

That's all for now. Oh and i'm thinking of doing a once every week or two weeks or whenever review kinda analysis of a song/album that i find interesting/ inspiring. So look forward to that. ]]> ~timmythemule http://timmythemule.deviantart.com/journal/9836793/ http://timmythemule.deviantart.com/journal/9836793/ Thu, 24 Aug 2006 08:46:25 PDT ~timmythemule http://timmythemule.deviantart.com/journal/9827236/ http://timmythemule.deviantart.com/journal/9827236/ Wed, 23 Aug 2006 12:23:15 PDT

And in same aforementioned paper i read that a young boy that has had had to be fed through a tube for his entire life starts off eating Cadbury's Flakes as his first 'solid' food. Fucking yeah, what a healthy start. And people wonder why there's a fucking obesity crisis in young people these days. Not exactly a great way to start your new life munching on fucking chocolate bars produced by one of the biggest corporations in Britain, and it also gives said company a huge amount of unneccesary publicity, no doubt they played a part in getting The Sun to play them up.

And another thing, The Sun is the biggest pile of fucking shit i have ever read, i mean Paris Hilton getting bitten by her fucking dog?! thats not fucking news dumb-shits! Whoever reads/buys the sun out of choice must be about as empty-skulled a aforementiond BINT.

No offence to any of my close friends who may buy/read this paper of course, but i had to get this off my chest. Now that feels much better. Shit this must be the longest journal i've ever written! ]]> ~timmythemule http://timmythemule.deviantart.com/journal/9702803/ http://timmythemule.deviantart.com/journal/9702803/ Sat, 12 Aug 2006 13:36:16 PDT ~timmythemule http://timmythemule.deviantart.com/journal/9645393/ http://timmythemule.deviantart.com/journal/9645393/ Tue, 08 Aug 2006 10:24:53 PDT
