And here we are again at this sad point where all the decent Expos of London are done for the year sad times! but i really enjoyed myself this year and if anyone has any pics of me cosplaying as Reno from FF7 get in touch would love to chat about stuff

Right more to update, i recently took my lady to my home city of Cardiff lately and showed her the sights! it was a great experience and I loved showing her the areas i grew up. And from this i took loads and loads and loads of pictures only a few worthy of my DA work but loads of nice memories

More recently I'm now at the ACM (Academy of Contemporary music) studying guitar and loving that! its a great experience. I'm also hoping to start becoming more creative in terms of my other artistic values, drawing and photography for example and look forward to doing more in the foreseeable future!

Any way stay safe everyone and have a great time soon hope to speak to allot more people in the coming future as my expressive art becomes more available and please feel free to set me a comment i love meeting like minded people

Lastly just my usual soppy bullshit, Crystal. Thank you. Always i will love you and i thank you for being my inspiration and my muse <3

I'm really really terrible at updating my journal im sorry >_<

Apology over now lets get on with the update lol right well since February I have had a job, lost it and now have another job in a bar...it sounds more glamorous than it actually is but hey ho!

I also went to the Anime Expo again in may just gone, I have to say this one was definitely more fun than the previous one and i got a ton of stuff they had some really cool people to meet there also including Craig Charles (Red Dwarf) who was an absolute legend and a pleasure to meet

I recently ordered every death note manga of amazon for £38 which is fantastic as I have been a little addicted to them of late . I went to a guitar expo in London over the weekend which again brought a whole world of interest to me playing new guitars and buying stuff including a new amp which is the size of my 360 controller

What else...hmm well my photography has been a little lax recently and with my latest deviant actually being me but photographer by Sarah I'm really rubbish for it >_< so again sorry i will do some work soon promise ^_^ I've got a pretty wicked summer coming up with the bloodstock festival coming up in August and with the nice weather we have been having recently hopefully it will stick

Lastly I want to send my love to mike whose under the knife today so best of luck with the recovery matey and also to CJ as usual and a thousand thanks to Sarah whose tolerated me staying round their place loads and moaning about pokemon

Cheers guys stay safe and peace!

p.s who's seen that pokemon silver and gold are being re-released!! D yayayyayayayayayayayayayayay!!

Ok wow...its been an absolute age since I last updated my journal! and also posted any pictures for that matter! and for this I am sorry, more will be on the way (hopefully) OK lets get on with the update

Right first off my camera recently broke on me at absolutely the wrong time which was when we had snow (noooo) I was really annoyed with this as I have no photos from my camera However! I did manage to grab a couple on my phone which aren't bad quality to be honest so those will be coming up in about 10 mins or so

Secondly I am no longer in the military, unfortunately it did not work out and did not live up to my expectations so here I am back at home and jobless..again lol. I'm not going to complain however as it allows my to focus on my more creative side of things, playing guitar, thinking about photos and doing some drawings which I have become fond of recently. I'm not very good but once there is something that is good ill be sure to upload it.

I have also been doing some reading of late which consists of Christopher Paolini's Inheritance trilogy which is fantastic and I definitely recommend reading. I have also been watching alot of the anime series called Bleach in recent days which has fast become my favorite anime to date!

I went to Cozcon last year which is the local cosplay in London which was absolutely amazing! I hope to upload a photo or two of that experience and of the awesome costumes that were there including my own (ego much)

Thats about it guys, i'd like to thank Crystal, my parents and my best friends Mike and Sarah for all the support I've had since returning home from the military, it would be way harder without you guys so thanks alot

Stay safe guys and peace

Many things have been changing around me at the moment and I feel its time to reflect on these things. Its later in the year and I am beginning to feel older which is something I don't want to feel as I hate growing older. However while I am feeling older I am also feeling far more content within myself, I feel far more relaxed as my pace of lifestyle is slowing a little.

I have also been given an entry date into the armed forces; 16th of November, and this is something that I am nervous about already its a new challenge in my life and I really hope that its what I'm expecting or more. This is something that i really hope is all I imagined and more as it has been a big dream of mine for a good number of years now.

Another new entry is the fascination with Buddhism and more specifically the Shaolin Monks of China. Now you may (or may not) know that I went to china a number of years ago and while I saw a great number of things out there, one of my personal regrets is that I did not go and see the Shaolin Monks in the Shaolin temple, they truly fascinate me and its something that I would love to learn more about and maybe even become involved. Buddhism to me has been a rather big topic in my life and something that I've found always leads to a better lifestyle, a far greater happiness and the teachings to do truly remarkable things with the Human form.

These are the things that are new to me in my life and now just to round off I just want to mention my beautiful (and remarkably intelligent) girlfriend Crystal, her support and love over the last 8 or so months has meant the world to me and I certainly hope for this great relationship to continue over the upcoming months.

Cheers guys and peace
