I have seen the end ... CAT?

Well Hell, so I'm not even gonna be able to get away from them in death? You know that's just so not fair.... )>.<( I really don't have any luck when it comes to kids... I normally end up in the train wagon with the biggest amount of them and apparently I'm the most interesting thing they've ever seen.

Anyways, I've finally sent most of the photos for the Gaffa music photo awards, just two sections missing. I'm crossing my fingers and everything else that at least get to kick some ass ...

My left arm's sleeve is still not finished, but it will hopefully be by November, which reminds me that I need to stop by Charlotte's shop to book two appointments. Starting on my right arm in less than a month. Damn I'm excited to see what Marija got for me. Hope it's going to look EVOOOOOOOOOOOL!

Friday's coming up and I got a portrait shoot and live shoot with the guys from Trusted Few, who will btw be releasing their first full length album called: And Then We Forgot, on friday as well. I'm really excited about it. If you haven't heard about them you should go check them out at myspace, their never record isn't up yet, but will soon. (I Hope) Check them out here: Trusted Few's Myspace.

That's all for tonight... going back to read my book before I give up on finishing it again. (FUUUU school, why must you take most of my time?)

Sucks (-__-;)

You know your weekend's gonna suck, when you have to spend it doing homework.
2 reports in Japanese.
about 12 pages of grammar in japanese.
20 kanji's I've should have memorized already.
2 english papers due tomorrow and Friday.
about 30 pages English grammar.
5 chapters of Spanish grammar.


But what you do when you know your weekend is gonna suck?
You grab a friend and go out and buy overly expensive headphones so you can burst your ears with death metal to keep you awake 'till late night. (Actually I bought the headphones last week, but nonetheless they're WONDERFUL !)



Other than that you buy yourself some overpriced imported Cherry Coke, some Skittles and some Aero mint chocolate and you're good to go.

Infest

"There's no money, There's no possessions, only obsessions, I don't need that shit, Take my money, take my possessions, take my obsessions, I don't need that shit" Some of the most famous words sung by Jacoby Shaddix in the song: Between Angels and Insects.

I guess none can argue with those words. Wise words coming from a maybe not so wise man (At least back in the days when it was written). Been spinning this record a lot lately. Still love it just as much as when it first was released back in April 2000.

This song itself have been an important part of my life. And with the years passing by feeling like they were just a few months. I've come to realize that most people don't own stuff, their stuff owns them. I myself hate to admit, but I'm owned by my camera, phone and computer. Other people are owned by their money, I'm sure glad I'm not one of those. In my mind money ain't nothing but a fictional number sitting in a fictional account... That doesn't mean I don't pay my bills and that I don't work, 'cause nobody can survive on air (or at least not anybody I've ever met).

Anyways... to sum this up, if you got the record go listen to it. If you don't, well then you're a moron and should go get it (Legally obviously).

Anger and more Anger!

A good friend posted this photo a while back at facebook and tagged me as the "serious" cat. She had a pretty good point.
At least considering the fact that I'd taken over the role as the serious, mature (to a certain extend), adult one in the crew and if you ask some people they'll tell you that I've also taken the role as the asshole and angry bastard.
Probably all those things fits me just fine.
I can be your best friend or I can be your worst enemy... That's pretty much up to you.

Now enough on the anger bullshit... or wait a second, I got one last rant to do today.
Why would someone have their tattoo shop as "open" and not be there? God Fucking Dammit! all I wanted to do was, drop some deposit money off and change some appointment dates... is that so hard to open the freakin' door for? C'mon it would take me less than 5 minutes.... ARGH or at least learn to take the phone... Serious people, it's NOT that hard.

Apparently I've also been kicked out of my english and spanish class for not being there enough.... hmm what about the teacher's being there on time? It's not fair that we get a whole day counted as "not present" if we're 5 minutes late, if they can just drop in after 30 minutes...?

I dropped the Charlaine Harris' Harper Connelly series for the time being, since I can't seem to finish the second book. I really like the first book "Grave Surprise" but the second one is so slow and quite boring, I've past the middle of it and I can't force myself to finish. Normally I read books like there was no tomorrow... Anyways so instead of finishing that book I started reading Harry Potter and the philosopher's stone. (I've red this one once in portuguese many many years ago) never really got around on reading further on the series, but since I recently found all 7 books for nothing more than 25pounds from new, I couldn't resist the urge of buying them. Just hoping I'll have more time to read these. So they don't end up like the other 16 books waiting for me to have time.

People's opinion upon others

Last night, I ended up hearing an opinion about me I actually could have survived without.
No names need to be listed here, but honestly I'd expect that an Artist would be much more open minded that average people. Apparently that doesn't seem to be this case.

Normally I don't bother with people's opinion about me, whether they know me or not.
But I was caught by surprise when I realized all that he ever though about me was only based on my appearence and not my actual intelligence.

So in a certain famous danish artist's opinion, people like me (read: "overly" tattoed, with metal sitting on their faces and huges holes in their ears, etc etc etc... you get the picture!) are nothing but a bunch of low IQ, lowlifes, drug users, alcoholics, society losers who feed upon other peoples money *keep adding bad adjectives*.
I'm truly sorry but last I checked (which was about 2 seconds ago)!
I currently have two full time jobs, one part time and I'm a full time student. How in the hell do I fit into his description other than the physical part of it?
Yes I have metal sitting in my face, yes my ears have been "destroyed", yes there ink under my skin! But that does not make me a criminal.
I know a lot of people in the "alternative" culture have complained and ranted about this so many times before. I just seem not to be able to accept this.
I was raised by a hard working father, raised to be polite to those who are polite to me, raised to pay my bills on time, work hard to archieve what I desire. But most important of all is that I've been raised to not put up with closed minded people's bullshit!

If he should read this, well I hope you've one day will grow some guts and have the balls to come and actually have a conversation with me so, maybe one day you can trade that nasty image of me and people alike me out of your head and get an actual image of who and what I am.

Skeletonwitch

For more photos check my Flickr page here: Brightsideofmurder@flickr


So Tuesday night I left one and a half hour earlier from my japanese class to catch the american band Skeletonwitch at the danish venue The Rock.

While I have this love/hate thing for the rock I must admit that I was pleasently surprised about the quality of the sound.

Also Aleksi helped me pick some of the photos I'll be using at this year's Gaffa photo awards.
Now I just need to figure the last ones to use and submit them and hope for the best.

BMTH photo featured in Epitaph's Blog?

So while being bored this early mornig after a night of no sleep because of coding html for pure nothingness I feel upon a post at the Epitaph's Blog, from back when Bring Me The Horizon had just entered the studio in Sweden to record their soon to be released record: There's a hell believe me I've seen, There's a heaven let's keep it a secret.

And while I normally don't mind my photos being used, I do care about people dropping me a line telling me that they're used it or posted it somewhere else with something else. It takes maybe a couple of minutes to let me know and it doesn't hurt anybody. So why won't people just do it?

Epitaph, next time, drop me a line or even two and let me know you're using it. Thanks.

Now that's all for the now being, better get out of the door and out to school.
Two and a half long annoying english lesson hours here I come!

Finally done... Or at least almost!

Hell, I've actually forgotten how terribly annoying it is to do html coding by hand without any help.
Ah well at least the design is done and only need to fix tiny small stuff now.
It's almost 2:00am, and I need to sleep since there class early tomorrow (at least I think it's early).

I'm currently trying to figure out which photos I should use for this years Gaffa photo competition.
Guess I'll have to wait for Jana to get home from Russia to help me pick which ones to use.

There's less than 20 days for me to get to finish my left arm's sleeve. Next month we'll be starting at my right arm's and I'm so excited to see what Marija's gonna come up with. It's going to be a high contrast since my left arm is pretty much "girly" and my right arm is going to be quite "gore-ish" (or at least I hope).


Yuuush, now I'll better go get some sleep unless I wanna sleep through my english class tomorrow.

おやすみなさい〜
