cleaning

ok, so tonight i decided to clean up my room a bit

why?

cause maths sucks and i'd rather clean my room than do maths.

anyway..
so i found a place for that CD rack i've been meaning to put up (ontop of one of my speakers), put it together and put all the CD's and DVD's that have been floating around my room in it. it didn't make much difference to the state of my room.

i decided to throw out all the spare pieces of paper and stuff. usually this is the killer, i'll put it all in the recycling and my room will be tidy. that STILL didn't make much difference.

thats when i worked out what is killing my room. UNI WORK.

i have three piles of uni books. i have another pile dedicated to letters the uni send me. i have a pile of important papers i need to keep somewhere for tax and banking. i have a huge plastic tub thing that my parents bought me (meaning well of course) so that i could put stuff in it, but under my bed is full and it won't fit.

after moving things around a bit, i discovered i made a BIGGER mess. great.

i can't wait till i can move out. that way i can fit all my crap somewhere. i have a small room as it is, and when you're trying to fit uni work, billions of CD's and some audio gear in my room amongst my bed, cupboard, drawers, desk and stereo, there is NO room.

don't get me wrong though, i'm not complaining that i have lots of things, cause lets face it, i'm pretty lucky to have all the awesome things i have, i just need space for them all to squeeze somewhere.

oh, if you read this and know some friends who are in a band and want a recording, i'm pretty strapped for cash, so please pass my details on. i want to work, i really do.

thanks to having a very sore back, i've been going to the physio, and it's been slowly getting better. the physio has been stretching my neck and back muscles about every few days, and while it's painful, oh boy do i feel good afterwards. i've got one more session on wednesday morning, and hopefully that'll be the last.

if you like music doco's, be sure to watch "Some Kind Of Monster" on SBS at 10:10pm this saturday night for a doco about the making of the latest Metallica album. i'm not a fan of their music, but it's a behind the scenes look at the band, the recording process and the interpersonal relationships in the band. should be good

also, check out this doco called 'American Hardcore', which is about the origins of hardcore music. it's pretty good and part 1 can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0LHomP0SNE
the other parts are linked to on that page.

thats about it. nothing too interesting.
