about to go in for a meeting with my lecturer about my masters degree choices. it’s pretty crazy that i’m at this point, i always looked at it as a kid as something that was so far away and now i’m 20 and this is the beginning of an academic career. it’s also quite surreal because sometimes i forget what’s happened before. my high school life pretty much sucked as one of the school weirdos who helped everyone with homework even if they’d pushed me down the stairs the day before they asked. and now i’m standing in front of a future. i couldn’t even begin to see this as a future when i was thirteen or fourteen, everything was too shit and it clouded my judgment a bit. now i’m so excited to be here, to be alive - it’s absolutely amazing.
it sounds slightly overemotional but so much has happened in the last seven years of my life as a whole that i’m so happy i managed to make it here and finally, people are respecting me for what i love to do. i never thought things could be as good as they are at the moment.

Some of my latest adventures on Pawl’s server. Man i’ve been around some amazing architecture on there so this kinda pales in comparison, but i do like it. It’s the personal touches, isnt it? I fucking love Minecraft.

300 words to write and i’m done with second year. man it’s been a long-ass slog this time around but all worth it. i still dont know as much as i could know which i think is a good sign, because all i want to do is keep going until i really have got to the top of my game. me and my literary criticism cardigan are on a journey of education for a loooooong time but i think if i give my first lecture in it i’ll be pretty damn happy. witness its literary glory!

- i opened a google tab from last night that just said “backstreet boys merch” in the searchbar
- a fucking Enderman got in my mine today. so glad he can’t teleport into my house, i’m stuck underground with all my beautiful possessions surrounded on all sides
- but of course i had to leave both of these issues behind to do my essay, which is going slowly but frankly starting a week before the deadline is much unlike me and even if it is slow i’m proud for a change
- it’s not very good though help me
- also i’ve got back into twitter major for some reason at the moment: @hellorglory
- library visits for the rest of the week starting tomorrow. thermos borrowed from suzie and a hell of a lot of tesco snacks on hand per day and i should live.

just reblogging this again (i think) because that quote really hits the nail on the head, doesn’t it?

Patrick Stump: WE LIKED YOU BETTER FAT: CONFESSIONS OF A PARIAH
blunderingaround:
nervousbreakdance:
There’s this really nice piece at underthegunreview.net by Jacob Tender that a friend forwarded me today. It’s about how important Fall Out Boy’s album “From Under the Cork Tree,” was to him. After reading it though, nostalgic and well-written as it was, I really found myself more depressed than…
This is actually one of the saddest things I’ve ever read. In it’s essence this is somebody explaining to anyone that cares to read it why he’s dropped off the grid. This is somebody I have looked up to since I heard a couple of song from From Under The Cork Tree (I just googled it - it was released 2005 so I was 13/14 at the time). This is like looking into his head.
Reading it made me simultaneously angry and sad. Angry at people that would make anybody feel like they were useless. If this was in any other situation - in a workplace for example, where your colleagues were saying
this is truly heartbreaking. i’ve been with FOB/Patrick since From Under… as well and the fact is, i’m wearing my shirt i bought at Manchester when the band was together on the Folie tour at the moment and i know that they’ll never be that band anymore, but i loved them when they were and i love them all as they are now. patrick stump is one of my favourite human beings in the universe and he’s dealt with a lot of shit even when FOB were together, and now it’s like nobody actually cares about him or wants him to be happy doing whatever he wants and looking however he wants (seriously?! a dude can’t lose weight? he’s still freakin’ awesome.).
this man gave us the best years of his life to play music and sing things for us that made our lives more bearable, and now he’s considering never touring again because people made that much of a concentrated effort to make him feel guilty for moving on from a band he’d been with since before his twenties.
it shouldn’t take this much brutal honesty to make people not act like arseholes. i’m pretty disgusted with the people who sent that hate mail and bought tickets to Soul Punk shows to tell Patrick he sucked. i really wanted to go to the London shows and the thought that people like that may have been there instead of Patrick’s actual fans is horrible.
i really hope that people reconsider a lot of the Fall Out Boy backdrift thats been going on since the breakup after this. this is ridiculous.

listening to Fly Like an Eagle by Seal whilst i do my essay. this image best describes how i feel after all the agony of not knowing what to write.
man, why does everyone rag on Seal, the dude contributed to some awesome 90s soundtracks.
