Look! Effort!

I realise I have seriously neglected this blog for the past month so this is me trying to make up for this. Although, if I were to give justification's I haven't had anything to interesting to write about, hence no posts. But I'm still trying! So this is a semi-stall post, I'll give it my all!
Soo... things new with myself.. (yes.. I've resorted to that).
I got a main part in the school play, so this is keeping me busy! We're doing beauty and the beast, I get number one evil fairy and have already been told the costume in mine is big wings, and large boots. When I decide how I feel about this, I will update.
Got into Photography (time table clash, etc) so that is keeping me even busier, but it's good! Just a lot of work.
Hm... I'm understanding algebra (anyone who knows me knows this is beyond miracle).
I'm reading a quite fantastic book called Dead Until Dark (by Charlaine Harris), so rock on with the vampire romances! It's quite interesting to sit and read this and see parallels between this book sand the Twilight series, but I s hall not go on in case I sound teenie. Er.
Another thing I've gotten into is the show Numb3rs (this is after watching all of Chuck, which was brilliant). Numb3rs is also quite brilliant, just finishing the first series (it's important when starting to watch a series that there are a decent amount of DVDs already in the DVD store - you always know then the show was good enough to carry on for X amount of seasons, and you won't run out of episodes to watch as quickly, and have to go through that painful mourning period of said show, and then the issue of having to try and choose a new show to fill t he void it's left in your life). Anyway - point was, it's really good! It also has David Krumholtz in it, who is quite cool, and if something comes up that I actually can comprehend, it makes me feel really intelligent, which is also quite cool.
While we're on the subject of media, have also been listening to a lot of Jack's Mannequin lately - brilliant for walk-around music, catchy, simple, clever little lines for moments when you actually listen to it, easy to have on when you're mind's in another world. Also been listening to more Ben Folds (yes, it's been one of those weeks) but also great to have on in the background. That kinda piano/rock thing going on, it's all good, can be pretty rockin' or pretty cruisey. Jack's Mannequin is quite something though... only because if you listen to a bunch of their songs, then realise (like I did) the lead singer almost died of cancer, ad listen to the albums again; a lot starts to make sense. Not for every song, but I do like this music as it can related to many things. With this, I'll leave you with my favourite JM song of the moment (sorry I couldn't get a real video).
