Indeed it has been sometime since this blog’s seen some action, unlike myself, I'm in the middle of a crammed week. I’ve considered that some people have the attention spans of the goldfish sort so I’ll do a short round up and try not to tangent off into a novel.
On Saturday and Sunday I was busy helping my cousin exhibit his chocolate fondue company at the Asiana Bridal Exhibition at the Riverbank Plaza Hotel on the South Bank. I spent the following day finishing up a photo shoot for another of my cousins’ business, this time a beauty salon.
Tuesday began at approximately 7:45am. Myself and Ammy went down to a swanky little bar in London to watch “The Culture Show” being filmed by the BBC in front of a tiny audience, the show, hosted by Lauren Laverne also featured flavour of the month Mika and the living ledge that is Patrick Stewart! We also met some awesome blokes from up north who kept us in hysterics all day. The show is being broadcast on BBC2 Tonight(3rd) at 7.30pm. I must add that I fell asleep on the tube back home for the first time ever in my life!
I guess stealing the odd ten minutes of Zzzz’s wasn’t such a bad idea really, I went to see Bloc party play a three night residency at the (newly saved, I think) Astoria from Wednesday to Friday which was quite exhausting. Exhausting however not regretful, each night had a different feel to it, a different supporting cast(Fields, Metric and Absentee) each day being the obvious reason. I went to all three nights with Katherine, we tried to mix it up a bit each night and enjoy the gigs from different views, first night from the heart of the crowd, the second on the balcony upstairs (which was an amazing view) all before enjoying the finale in the front row in front of Mr.Russell Lissack. Bloc Party themselves also tried to mix up their set and used the gigs to give fans a spin of their new record ‘A Weekend In The City’ (Out 5th Feb). My favourite night would have to be a tie between the latter two, with all the poster smuggling and chocolate bar antics(to cut a long story short Matt ate my dairy milk I threw onstage during ‘Helicopter’). I got a new compact camera today, which isn’t too compact but I don’t love it any less, with 7x zoom its quite handy for gigging. I took a few quality photos tonight, which – with a few tweaks on iPhoto are looking dapper.
So Now its somewhere between Friday night and Saturday dusk and I’m waiting for details of Diana’s birthday party to be texted back to me. Maybe its not wise to blog right now, two parties this weekent and refreshers week next week ontop of exhaustion don’t brew up a great academic Spring term. Oh Well, Cheerio!
