I've suddenly been run down by a hell of a lot of it. Tomorrow is the May Ball, it seems both a few months since our Prom, but also a life away. In the time between then and now I've been going out with Lauren for nearly a year and a half. Which, in itself, has been such a huge landmark time for me, much like another little lifetime that's fit into the one I had before, you know? Maybe not. But what I'm getting at is that this is the event to mark the end of another chapter/phase/section, what ever you'd like to deem it, of our lives. Fuck me, it's going fast.
I think I could take the fact it's going quickly a number of ways, the way I choose to is that I'm having one hell of a good time. For a start, for a number of reasons, years 9 to 11 were rather drama filled, all of which hasn't occurred whatsoever, in comparison, since. Furthermore, the friendships I've gained since beginning sixth form are some the best I have, plus the ones I already had have been strengthened many fold. I mean, Sam was a mate at the start of Sixth form, we got on but we weren't hugely great friends, all told. Now we're bros. Blood brothers, if you will. And the people who started anew at the start, I'd never say it to her face, but Jos is a brilliant friend and I'm really glad to have met her while I've been at sixth form. I would go into everyone, but I would invariably miss people, all the while bore your socks off. And mine.
Two years ago, Don't feed The Seagulls. Good times.
Above is one of the videos we recorded back when we were playing every Friday round Dave's, which we try to do as often as we can still now, but a lot less often than we really should, especially recently, what with exams. But come the holidays, I hope you blow you away with interesting new developments. I hope too. But that video signifies another reason why I'm all nostalgic. I suppose I've just been thinking on the last few years recently, I can't say I've done anything I regret or have any real qualms or things to complain about, I look back on the past and present fondly. I think that's something a lot of people can't say, so I'm really thankful.
Don't get it twisted though, the times ahead to me are worth just as much as those past. I've known a lot of people with their heads in the past before now. Doing everything to have a memory or story to tell, rather than enjoying the moment. I can't really imagine doing that myself. But if that's your thing, fair enough. Just don't mess up my good time I guess.

In other news, congratulations to my good friend Oli for starting up a blog. I can't wait to read more from it, I think it's an endeavour that he'd do well to stick at, he has a knack for it it seems. eM kcilC !
And I want to see the new ruddy pirates of the Caribbean movie, goddamit. Lauren went and saw it yesterday and she said it was good, but I think even if she said it was a dog turd I'd pay the admission to see Captain jack again. I'm not sure why, but the setting and the characters in the series thus far really pull me in and I love them. So to the cinetheatre I shall trek soon, I hope!
That's it for today, I hope tomorrow goes as well as everyone wants it to, for everyone involved!
The title is another nostalgic boom, Arctic monkeys inspired us hugely as a band and we've never really lost touch with their songs.
Now....Bring me that Horizon. Yep, A Pirates line that inspired the band, another reason to like them, eh?
