Dorian Gray: I enjoyed it but it was almost too Oscar Wilde. Obviously that book (and others) are what he's known for but it was like he was stuffing it full of as many epigrams as humanly possible. I was quite impressed with myself of remarking to Chester that I thought the three characters were the three sides to his personality, and then I read elsewhere afterwards that that is what he said himself. Or maybe that is so obvious that anyone could see it.
Dig Out Your Soul: Maybe the first album without the almighty lighters in the air moment that you're waiting for. I like, but I see it as a sound rather than an album. Almost a project for them rather than the album you've been waiting the last two years for. And now we have to wait another two years for the next one.
Only By The Night: There's another small step towards being the next U2. It's no Joshua Tree but in Use Somebody they have their first stadium anthem. I think there will be more to come.
X Factor: I like Diana the best, but by week 3/4 they'll start saying she's a one trick pony. There's only so many indie ballads you can turn into floaty acoustic numbers. God help her on the Abba round.
Maths: College has given me a renewed interest in Maths. I watched the History of Maths programme and now I'm obsessed with Fibonacci and the golden ratio. If I could cut and paste properly, I would imbed the youtube video of the Fibonacci series in Lateralus, but instead I'll just link it here.
College: Since school fortnight, the group is now quite chatty and the divides are being breached on a daily basis. Hopefully we can all be friends and not just the people that seemed to have paired up.
A Thrice gig I'm planning to watch is here.
I need to organise my room a bit as it seems to contain my life at the moment.
Since I bought the Mac and all the iTUnes history got deleted, the most played song is Metallica - The Unforgiven III (27 plays)
I'm contemplating a Facebook purge. Haven't you all got a load of 'friends' who you either met once, were friends of people you no longer talk to, or people from your past who you have no intention of seeing ever again? And will they know if you delete them?
