uncencoured

Hey people,

Im in a rather pissy mood right now...just came back from msida. I was in msida cause i was on my way to rugby. i didnt go to rugby, cause as soon as i arrived in msida i got a msg saying we don't acctually have rugby. It took me three quarters of an hour to get here from msida cause the bloody bus system sucks balls.

Well...not much to say besides that...

I haven't got any other results yet, not looking forward to them, i mean i don't know how well i did, but on second thought, knowing where i stand is much better, at least i'de know if I'm going to repeat the year or not. Bloody lazy lecturers take there time to do anything...idiots.

I experimenting with Anime again...for those of you who don't know, Anime (or Manga) is the Japanese style of drawing cartoons, the ones with the big eyes. I've drawn one especially good one, in my opinion. Bit of a sad theme, as its a girl crying, but i likes it...Here I'de like to say thanks to Chris who introduced me to the art style *cough* -ish, also, thank hiim even more, cause it was this style that made me meet Matt.
I am also, experimenting with color a bit again...enjoying remmebering all the tricks and methods, and adding on all the stuff ive learnt since i used pencil color last.

I'm getting close to some one kind of unexpectedly. It's a good thing, I'm not complaining, quite the opposite.

Another thing is that I'm practically getting through the week by waiting for Friday's worship meeting...Since the weekend I've let God take a more central position in my life again. I just need to open my heart more to be able to listen to what he wants from me again. I know by now that when i go the other way...well...not pretty...so working on that...

Oh, warning to all...i got into the habit of carrying my camera everywhere...no matter where it be...in a way its good, cause a lot of the photos i take are good ones, and more importantly natural ones...no posing...people acting real...in fact..most people i speak to on msn have a photo taken by me as a display pic.

well...

sorry for the totally random rant...

and my apologies if its bored you out of your mind...as i said...not in the best of moods...

Fortress

Hey people,
Just a quick rant to update you all on the weekend.
Well, first a BIG thank you to Mark for his Hospitallity last Saturday. For those who don't know, a fun Chinese night...Really great.
Yesterday was fun. After the mass at University, which was in the evening, we decided to go to Fontanella in Mdina...why? who knows?
well three vehicles all full and we drive up...the silent city was not so silent when we got there...and the place looks so much cooler and different at night, Simon likes.
Well Fontanella was closed...bugger, we turn round and eventually decide to go to 'Il-Fortizza' in Xemxija, or St. Pauls Bay, not sure. This place is brilliant, relaxed and a nice warm toasty atmosphere. The food is good and it's not at all expensive. Well an evening of eating, light drinking (obviously not the drivers) and relaxing...brilliant.
NOTE: To all the drivers, Miguel took us round an extra 10 minute drive. He missed the exit.

well this morning back to uni, just came out of an Art lecture...the guy woke up in a pissy mood, and spent two hours saying how lucky we are that he is teaching us, and that he is doing us a favour....i stopped listening after 15 minutes...ah well.

next lecture in 3 hours, going to run some errands and go to mass.

last thing: Saz starts teachiong practise today. She's been working very hard on preparing the lessons, so lets pray that she does brilliantly...have no doubt on the matter myself...

well thats it..

The penguin is better than you.
(lol mike sent me this video yesterday...couldn't stop laughing)

On methods of Praise

Hey guys,
This is more of a continuation to the copmment i posted on Matt's blog..
I really want to start an instrument, not for my own satisfaction or glory, but rather to be able to Praise God in a more expressive way. I really feel limited in my showing my love and devotion to Him, who is such an important person in my life.
At the moment my only form of showing praise, is using my art.
Don't get me wrong,
I am trully and honestly grateful to God for granting me with this brilliant talent, and I'm happy it is actually being used to serve him, especially in community, but as i said in Matt's blog, Music, somehow, is much more alive...
Also Music can be used for Evangelisation and bringing people closer to God, while art is easily ignored...
I say again, I am in no way complaining for the talents i havce been given, and I'm sure He is using it in the way He sees most fit.
Somehow I know that if/ when i start an instrument, I'll be reletavily good at it, not boasting or braging (i can't anyway...never touched an instrument in my life) but somehow i know it's inside me.
Well, of course i must not ignore the capability and opportunity God has given me when it comes to filming, I thank him for this too, and it is more alive than art too...but i still feel music is more effective as a means of praise.
Here I would like to tell all those who have this talent, to thank God for it and use it for Him...don't take it for granted. Also I'de like to thank them all for helping us in praise andf encourage them to keep doing the wonderfgul job that they are already doing.
I'de like to end by saying that I am not ungratefull for the talents I have been given, and do not intend on complaining for the one's I don't have. I don't doubt God has a specific plan for me as He does for all of us, and I'm sure that He has equiped me with all I need to fullfill this plan.
to end ide like to show u the video i showed at the weekend...using God's given talent foir him...in a way...



hope you enjoy it...

Im off to uni mass,

Praise God

The lecturer doesnt show up....
I mean come on!
What the hell?!

Well, I'm waiting for the dew to dry up off the roof so i can go and spray the banner...hope it comes out ok, first time I'm using spray..:S
Well....as i said yesterday, we got a new member to our 'blog community'...Carl Cassar is taking the bother of telling us whats going on, on the underside of the planet...Let's all give him a warm welcome...:P

On insanity

Right, the review...how do I put this so that it wil be rated at least PG...i suppose how i told Matt would do..."Review: Bollocks" Yeah...it went bad...conversataion ended.

I was contemplating this morning (Matt slaps forhead "Oh no...") about madness...
I have been called Mad, Insane or Cazy on many occasions, And sometimes I take these comments as compliments...an example is a few weeks ago Drew has "Simon is a crazy bastard" as his personnel message on msn...I actually asked him to keep it for a while.
I figured there are different types of madness, not to metion different degrees of madness.
  • Well there is madly in Love,
  • insane cause you're not with some one,
  • there's crazy, "I'm a bit more hyper than everyone else"
  • or mad: " I think the world is made up if numbers but BLACK the pink rhino fairy keeps sitting on them and dividing BLACK them by two forming everything into blue pandas, if it wherent for the super penguins flying around with BLACKtheir magnums we'de all be puddles of basic jelo collecting in the curves of 9's 0's 3's BLACK 5's 6's and 8's. Why are you looking at me like that?"
  • There's also the crazy "Hey I'm Simon and I like to jump from hi altitudes with only a long rubber band attached to my ankles, I also enjoy fliping through the air and doing anything with a risk of injury"
  • Theres also of course the spontanious insanity, which I simply love, something along the lines of "Lets do this." "Why?" "Why not?" "no its stupid" (there's always one) "Oh come on..." "gah...fine!
  • and then there's the insanity brought on by a lot of stress, lack of sleep and tention....the type where you're sitting down, can't stop shaking, you're crying and laughing at the same time, and brief loud cuss words keep bursting from your mouth...not pretty to watch, not pretty to be in...but ah well....

well hope you enjoyed that...just to let everyuone who has called me crazy, insane or mad in the pas...you are right...I have experienced every single one of these states in the past year alone. ...ajma......

well I am free until next Monday, when 2nd semester starts, if anyone has ideas to do something pls let me know...not tonight though, i need to sleep some more to recover the wasted 23hrs yesterday/this morning.

Tape

Lunch and then Lunch

Well....im blogging as I've been called "naughty" by a girl i know, who lives down do road, for not doing so....
Well...on thursday i had my last written exam, i felt i should have passed, at least in the first section, i mean come on, i wrote an extra two essays..yes i know im dumb, no need for any more name calling...got enough from the people in my course...what's worst is that i wrote an extra two essays and still came out half an hour early...ah well, whats done is done.
Anyway, that evening went to Matt's house and just relaxed, sketched, and watched comedy on youtube...it was fun...
yesterday, went to De La Salle to see a bit of the old teachers, spent a good hour talking to my Maths one...and then went to disturb her during a lesson as well, I don't think she was too happy with the advice I gave the Uppers..."Well, I did nothing but draw for two years, studied in the last week and passed, and got into the course i wanted"...she wouldn't admit that it was true.
Well, after that it was Valletta for lunch, and then Valetta for lunch...:)...well, I had lunch with Miguel and Jonny, and as we were about to leave Matt and Nick where coming in, so me and mig thought we'de join them,...and they chose the place we had gone to....and we got Miguel into Sudoku :D
well...then home and community in the evening...it was really nice...i love that song "Let it rain"...
well....i need to ask you a question....I just cut my hair, so what would u say if the first reaction someone has to seeing it the first time is a laugh? I feel i should take offense...
Well...today its a day working...hopefully....if i get myself to start....:S really dont feel like...
