Back once again for the renegade master

June 11, 2008

Been a bit busy (messy) lately and haven’t even checked this tanggg for a few days. I have unfortunately restarted school which is proving to be the most pointless endeavour I have undertaken in some time – I literately have no work to do for six weeks, just sit back and wait for a much needed summer break before A2’s to start. That said however, I am undergoing a new directing project (as you are probably unaware I am an aspiring director); something that I’ve been meaning to get round to for a while. An example of some previous work;

My first properly conducted production; a nitty gritty Exploitation esque trailer.

After a hectic intoxicated weekend I must admit that school is actually kind of nice, due to dropping Psychology I have a ridiculous amount of spare time and have enjoyed this luscious weather ever so much, even a nice daily routine has been a much appreciated change in pace. I am off to enjoy a nice garden session – expect a lot of posts ranting about Euro matches as well as my next top ten coming your way.

Before I go however I’d just like to leave with a nice funky summer mixtape which has been drastically overplayed over the past few days…

Beer and nachos maketh the man

June 4, 2008

Today was nice. I was finally able to catch up on some work without going to literal work for a change, did some reading in preparation for next year like. Also I caught up with one of my bruvs and we checked out this restaurant, Havana. On the offset it is a cliché student paradise, brandishing Che Guevara so contently over it’s outside. We were a bit off put initially with the price and lack of person within this faux Spanish establishment, yet when the food arrived we had not a word of complaint to utter. My order was simple – Nachos. Anyone can make Nachos, heck even I can – yet I am still a big fan, and I have to say, Havana provided me with the nicest chilli beef Nachos I have had in a long time. Combined with a couple of bottles of Desperado (lushhhh) and I was completely satisfied with the 13.50 I’d just spent. Have to give a shout out to the place n’all because it really was lovely, a quiet little Tapas bar just on the end of North Hill.

Tonight hasn’t been bad either, initially I was going out and hopefully meeting this rather gawgussss girly, however rain and money prevented this which, is a bit of a bummer. But I’ve had a few beers at home and watched a brilliant 80’s film – Wild Style (if you haven’t seen and bare any interest in Hip-Hop I strongly reccomend);

Am now sat back with a nice chilled beer listening to Jaylib – Champion Sound;

Very good album and a must have for anyone into any variety of funky fresh beatz – make sure you take a listen to ‘The Red’ for a reminder of why J Dilla is a god. I feel it is time for me to delve deeper into the musical abyss I have plunged myself into and try not to despair about being skint and moreover sober until friday, tara.
