       BECOMING AN INTELLECT.











Today shall be a good day. Despite the rain and the hibernation in a small bungalow all day. For tonight i am going to see my second Shakespeare play of the month, 'Juliet and her Romeo'.I haven't heard much about it, all i know is that it is set in an old people's home, and performed by OAP's...........I literally cannot wait.

Alexa Made Well

These photos make me die a little inside. Mainly because they involve one woman who takes over quite a lot of the walls  in my bedroom.......ALEXA CHUNG. 
     She is photographed (above) in New York with her boyfriend Alex Turner who is admittedly also exceedingly cool. Daisy Lowe (higher above) i have not yet made up my mind about, although I can't deny that i wish also I looked like her. Some Beautiful People, Make Beautiful Photos.

I Speak Because i Can

Earlier this week i bought Laura Marling's second album "I speak because I can". It is so hard to believe that this girl is still only 20, yet she has achieved what other artist's might hope for in another 10 years. "The Devil's Spoke", is the first single and i feel it shows a lot more depth than any of her previous work. Possibly because no longer is it simply her and a guitar, also her lyrics show a spirit of someone far older than her. The album on the whole is thoroughly convincing, and definitely worth a listen............. this video is not the actual music video, that was disallowed by youtube!?


One Day........













As always, the favoured brandon Flowers must make an appearance near the beginning of this.
Photography by Gavin Bond, oh if i should have the chance!

"Fellow Drooges"

I love this photo of Malcolm Mcdowell, he looks so innocent which is funny having just watched 'If', and 'A Clockwork Orange'............

Visiting Paloma Faith






 








Having heard of her, but not really knowing a lot about her i was really excited to see Paloma Faith on Friday night.
She first appeared hidden behind Ostrich Feathers, and as she revealed herself she pounced onto the stage in a spandex cat suit covered in frills and trills. She changed outfits three times throughout the concert, but my film ran out after ten minutes. It was on my crappy camera, so the photo is hardly quality. The concert was amazing particularly 'Upside Down', when her band went crazy. She completely brought her cabaret, burlesque feel to the academy.


The Blog Begins..............

Who would have thought that i would finally give in to self-indulgence and create a blog. 
I fear that it will serve as a constant distraction, but I fear even more that i will become deadly boring and cry into Much Ado About Nothing if i have to revise any more thoroughly.
PLEASE LET'S HOPE THIS HAS WORKED.
