33. Feeling like im a day behind at a time.

Qotd; Nicole: My Leg Is Not a Religion, It's Just a Leg!

What a severly chilled friday, woke up at 1 had something to eat, found out i got some hours down for work, money coming in, i am happy. :) Spent the day relaxing, chilled in the evening after my big shop at sainsburys bought two crates of stella that were on offer, stocked up the fridge as you can see had a couple and played some halo 3.. then BED. Relaxed evening before knowing what lay ahead for nadias tommorow/today.. shall prbably have avideo to post up tommorow :P we shall see

32. i dont have words

31. I've been a busy bee

Made some edits in ID or In Design today, first time using the software, it was amazingly difficult to use. I love the versatility of the programme this is just a quick preview/edit to a final article im gonna produce for the LAW and their gig the other day. Cant wait till its done, should be epic. Casino Rooms tonight so i think this may be the only post of the day, video's etc shall probably be uploading tommorow.

30. Memory Loss and House viewings

Today consisted of me and josh trying to piece together what the hell just happened last night? So far we have concluded that, we DID drink Kopperberg at one point, We had a scuffle and Josh hurt my leg, i fell in a bin and told everyone i facy them. I'm a loving Drunk.. and Josh is a violent drunk. Nicole woke up to find some HENCH bruise on her arse from the super mega whipping of wet tea towel that Josh gave her.. badtimes. This and the fact i woke up this morning hugging a pair of trousers, fully clothed (including my shoes) must mean the night before.. was a good night out.

Secondly Claire failed to mention about the housing situation so we spent a good 50 minutes of our day travelling to and from an empty house in Rochester which is already LET out :/ Fail Claire, FAIL. All in all besides the mishap with the housing it was a nice chillaxed day. Time for a movie whilst i fall asleep me thinks

29. 30 minute Fashion Shoot and Source bar

To be fair today was pretty damn awesome, i spent £30 on a sick night, source bar was amazing. So basically, had a weird day at uni, studio was double booked so i couldn't get in there, luckily kind fello Stephen let me use his studio for an hour to set up and shoot got it all done in about 30-40 mins, was an epic rush but the photos came out okay i guess. Then the evening was spent drinking large quantities of alcohol resulting Me and Josh getting well and truly SMASHED. I dont Remember much lol.

28. Monday

Was supposed to go uni. I didn't. I was ill. Missed the lectures, Woke up at 1pm feeling kind of shit, looked at some houses Nicole and Claire booked some viewings. Stayed up till rediculous o'clock watching monty python and drinking a couple of cans of fosters with Joshuarr playing Halo and Tetris. Chilled out Montag!

27. Catch up and Drive

My mum is a legend, i woke up at 1pm to find her knocking at my door with a tasty invite downstairs for some AWESOME Bacon & Egg rolls.. BEST.HANGOVER.CURE.EVER. The general day consisted of me editing photos from the previous day and fending off notification overload from Lawson and Harries' Rediculous tagging sprees and waiting for Papa to finish work so we could head back to Rochester :)

26. Freezing photo shoots and messy evenings.

Today woke up with NO hangover, quite proud of myself considering how rediculously messy last evening was.. up at 10 and then off to court park for two when everyone eventually gathered round mine ans we headed to freezing cold Court park where I and the law spent 2hours taking photos in a tree... after this we went to ians to take a few mess around shots on his sofa which didnt turn out too bad. Then they headed off to elise' party and i went back to get ready for the epic drunken night at the hay that lay ahead and fuck me... it was a heavy night with Sean, Joe, James, Henry and Jamie... we got our drinks on. Next day.. i woke up with memories of Sean falling down a step and nearly breaking his arm and spending a good couple of hours catching up with James.

25. Messy, Hillarious & Fun Weekend (part 1, THE Gig)

Haven't posted since Uni on thursday because since ive been back at the birdge its just been go go go. So i will do it in order of how i should've done.
So today was a really longgg day like supremely long because it basically just consisted of getting the Brocolor light set from uni and waiting for my parents to arrive and pick me up. Shot at the gig, ive never experienced anything like it, really high energy from Brannigans law and Far Fallen. IT was crazy cool. Challenging to get good shots, but i think they came out okay. I'm happy with them. That's all there is to say really.. wish i had shot more without flash but do like the vignette effect around the edges of the image.

24. Interior lighting and Financial fun

Song of the day; Jay-z Roc Boys: The Roc Boys in the building tonight, Oh what a feeling, I'm feeling life

Im seriously beginning to think that living in these halls is giving me the characteristics of being able to handle some really awkward situations, like when two people have a tiff infront of a whole room of people so its all public and shiz.. and everyone is quiet because nobody knows what to say.. its happened all too much.. but it happening so much is making more immune to awkward situations, whether i make it more awkward for others or not i dont care.
Today on the other hand was one of those days where you spend an entire day achieving something really you could learn shoot turn over and produce in the space of about an hour or two. The results wern't all that amazing (see shots above) but it was an alright day, another lighting technique learnt i guess.
As for the evening, editing some photos and watching trash tv lays ahead, as i cant afford to head out. Could really do with a night playing xbox but its just not that fun atm.
Financial flaws are beginning to appear in my plan to live off my compensation money as.. atm.. it has all gone quiet over that end, my dad has been made redundant so funds from rents are limited and i havent even paid this terms RENT :O i have £350 in my bank which im hoping to pay but they wont let me... because i have to pay half and not installments and now im being told to go to a "Crisis" meeting.. this is not a "Crisis" people, its just a change of circumstances, my spending habits havent changed! my flow of money has! GIVE ME MORE MONIEZ!

23. Set Build and Campaigns

Yes, Yes, More shall come later.. these rubbish pictures are from my blackberry, apologies on quality. It's basically a visual rep, of the Set build workshop we did today.. spent alot of time building, not enough time lighting so ended up not as well as wished but we found out how to produce a great demo set... minus the lighting. Didn't need to remind myself im a photographer not a carpenter. Ha, my Dad would be so disappointed with my severely limited Chippy skills today.

Oh yeah p.s The Hasselblad is absolutely fucking awesome to shoot on.. was actually really good to use it today.

22. Diesel, Apparel and Set build

Grabbed some awesome ideas off my pals for the Diesel Campaign (Kudos to Ian Harries and Rhys Harries with their crazy ideas) got to see if they pass with Caroline tomorrow. Sketched up some shots of what i want.. so we shall see.
Really tired it is 03:47 and im up to uni for 10:00 so im gonna go grab some z's

21. Valentines

Had a great weekend with teh lover, as it would be. Spent a reasonable amount of cash and DO I FEEL IT NOW!?! but it was al worth it.
Got a bit drunk on Sat night as you can see from my post, however it was a ridiculously good night, even if i am beginning to get a reputation for throwing my alcoholic beverages when im drunk at people.
Shooting the band shoot for Brannigans Law on Saturday, and got a gig shoot on friday, insane weekend ahead.
Today got the brief for Set build, it looks insane, can't wait to get stuck in for this project, however must begin the crazy Diesel campaign for tomorrow first.. AH

20. pina colada and rose

two words; pina colada and rose.... WASTED! Amazing day! I love life!

19. i don't actually have a title for today

Wow, i can teven think of a thing to write.
Today i spent alot of time by myself as she was at uni, edited alot of photos and decided that i would try the airbrushing effect, it was poor, but i did it anyway, alot comes with practise over these photoshop routines.
I also applied for the free RATM tickets for next weeks sale.. there victory gig as its being named. Blergh what the fuck am i talking about i dont want to be typing about this nonsense.

the pic above was the only photo i took today, the one for the tickets you have to give in.. meh im so bored.

Im going to bed
Bad day.

18. Confusion And Landannn

Decided today that I'm completely confused. I love my life recently and have been powering through work and setting up shoots for the upcoming weeks, which I'm nervous/excited for. Particularly looking forward to the shoot for brannigans law and the american aparel style shoot for some fashion promo students in a couple of weeks, this alongside my diesel project, I'm really enjoying photography atm. We're getting on really well together. However, I don't think I quite understand what I'm doing with this course or where I want to go anymore.. Less narrow minded than I thought I was.

17. Shooting in the studio

A video i should've uploaded last week along with the fashion shoot.

16. Lighting on location and snow

Today was freezing but yet another productive day shooting, got SO much shot and produced. Done. Photo and video above show it ALL as it is. Gonna spend the evening in drinking and playing some Fable 2 me thinks.. i deserve it. No uni today so we know what this means... Editing the raw photos from today. Whoop. Photoshopping. :)

15... Uploads, Editing and organisation

So Today, Basically had a day out of uni, sorted out photoshop and raw edited some images. (Above) from the lighting shoot the other day. So those Three above and the one from earlier post are the four im truly happy with. Queried about the shoot with Brannigans Law and Far Fallen, for their gig on the 19th so i shall be shooting there now, and hopefully they'll be coming to the studios for a band shoot sometime soon also.

Shooting on location tommorow, its gonna be fecking freezing, but im seriously looking forward to it, i shall no doubt post those photos up tommorow if i get a chance to upload them :)

14. Awesome Day, SAINTS WIN!

Today was yes... the day of superbowl 44, and im sure so many people follow me in saying WHO DAT?! to all the coult fans out there. Got a fridge put in my room, bought a crate o beer, got fable 2 and street fighter 4 for free.. and decided what im doing for my project... extremely amazing day, oh yeah got XBL sorted too.. SAWEEET.

So im a little tired after many a budweiser and it being 03:32AM but the super bowl just finish and an epic night it was.. Saints from 10-0 down, to win the whole championship and become world champs after an amazing interception by Tracy Porter... gives the Saints the WIN at 31-17!!! WOOO.

What an EPIC day.

Rankin Reconstruction Final shot (more shots later)

Atm i can only upload this ONE i shot an edited at uni, as i dont have Raw editor access on my laptop atm.

13. LONG TIME, NO SEE

Quote of the WEEK: Claire: I dont get it!! Me: What don't you get? Claire: Who are the Lulz and how do you know so much about them?!?! Everyone else: *FITS OF LAUGHTER*

It's been a bit of time off from blogging been quite busy with going out etc.. and late nights not being bothered to post. Today has been no exception.. Too much time on failblog and engrish have warped my mind.. my sleeping pattern is fucked.. and my first weekend without seeing hayley since ive been back.

Been a weird couple of days, no drink since thursday and basically relaxing.. Fifa 09 between me and Josh has taken up alot of time.. and not much else.

Got a new project, Photography and advertising! GREAT :D ... im thinking of shooting Diesel's "BE STUPID" campaign, reading week was a laugh alot of drinking.. and last week i spent alot of time at uni, did a lighting workshop that went well.. will upload photos later or tommorow.

Im too tired for this right now, night night

Oh btw this is the LULZ thing that she didn't get...

12. Hate and hangovers

i just tried to set this as my facebook status:

Dont get your hopes up, because there is always someone out there.. who is better than you, someone who is better looking, more charismatic and more entertaining than you'll ever be. You can try your hardest but you'll never win .. you are just a fail and only to your REAL friends you are a successor. Your friends and family will tell you you're doing well whether you are or not, your girlfriend might tell you that your the best thing that has ever happened to her, reality is.. she fancies someone else and your family just saying it because they have to. Get over it, lifes shit. Live for today (y)

Wow hangovers really do bring out the worst in me. Heading to uni in a bit feeling ROUGH.

11. Travels, Lectures and Halo triple

Qotd: Nicole: Why would you want to slap my llama?!


Qotd: Nicole: Why would you want to slap my llama?!

I should probably turn the whole Halo Triple to, Fifa 09 and Ufc canage. Didnt end up going tap for the reason of.. it being wank and it being cold. Saving the money for Thursday.

And i didnt even post this in the end last night, so im gonna post this now in the afternoon at 2pm when ive just woken up to see im in my boxers again no idea how i got to bed and when everyone left and feel like ive been deep throating swords... i can literally feel my tonsils..yum

10. The bridge and the beer

I apologise for the fact I'm not actually updating the blog on the eve of that day. Being in london put me all out of sync. I head back to the bridge for a couple of beverages with the parents and then for some more beverages with sean. Was weird being back so soon after only being there last week. So much had happened, found out my dad is looking ahead to new oppurtunities as his factory was being closed down, grandad is coming out of hospital tommorow (today now) and george has a girlfriend (that adam had to ask out for him) I don't miss Rochester when I'm away from it anymore, I have no thrill to head back, I'm not even excited for tap.. I'm not even sure if I wanna go. I'm sick of that place. I hope things turn up for the better when we move into housing next year and uni actually poses a challenge.
So I didn't really do much on this marvelous day, apart from have a lie in, head to the bridge, meet up with ma and pa, go see grandad who was up to his old self. I have now decided I can refer to him as the bearded troll, tombstone teeth, grey fur of a beard, old wrinkly skin and a cackling laugh, suits it mightly. Good to see him smiling again, even with those gammy gnashers.
Decided I want, I want, I want, I want a diana F+ as we did go in the lamogrpahy shop. And it did looks amazing :( I also would like a canon 7d please. I'll be happy then. Ty :)
