The day before yesterday at 23:00, the doctors turned the life support machine off. Just want to say again, rest in peace to the little brother of a very good friend of mine. An innocent fallen soldier who didn't even get to see his teen years because of health complications and a sudden heart attack.
Its heart breaking, words cannot express how Im feeling right now. My heart goes out to the family and I hope my friend knows I love her to bits.
Its a big shock. I saw him a few weeks ago and he was fine, well on the road to recovery, playing video games and running around with his best friend.
Tell everyone you love that you love them now because if you wait, you might miss the opportunity forever.
Yesterday I went somewhere. Possibly one of the most embarrassing- but necessary-places for any self respecting person to go.
3 Guesses...
No not there, nah, not there either.
I went to theSEXUAL HEALTHCLINIC (ROARRRR!!!)....
Yes, I actually did have this expression on my face when unknown
Dr (who ,btw, I don't even KNOW) proceeded to insert gloved fingers
It's the first time I've ever step foot in one....Yeah, I know its terrible because I'm in my early 20s and there are a million death trap diseases catalogued on the genitalia of every third person in the world and 6 degrees of separation and BLAH BLAH BLAH........
I'd been putting it off for ages, but yesterday, after months of deliberation, I decided to go ahead and do this once and for all- you know, just in case. Yep, Just in case my on again-off again-I don't even know what to call him, so eff labels-guy had left me an unexpected asymptomatic gift. Luckily for him, he hasn't so I will not be hiring a hitman.
Now that Ive been, I don't know what I was so afraid of. Could it have been the prospect of being felt up by unknown persons?
Or maybe having Unidentified Non Flying Objects forced into nether regions?
Could have been the SHEER embarrassment of seeing someone you know?
Follow me as I reveal why the answer is all of the above and more...
1. Why must the Nurse come into the waiting area and call out my first and last name at 1000000 decibels, ensuring that everyone within 100 miles radius will now be able to start a Facebook group about me and how I have (insert name of STI here). Cue Promiscuity Rumours.
2. Why would you think you can give me the eye and smile at me? in the STI clinic? THE STI CLINIC? This is not the club, keep it moving. There's nothing to see here baby.
3.Why were there 2 dudes there that I see around (you know the types that are in your social circle, you see them at parties but you just haven't spoken to them yet) chillin on the wall, flaunting the swagger of Usain Bolt after a race. Cue Promiscuity Rumours. Again. Avoid eye contact at all times (see rules below)
4. Why would you feel it is time to make jokes? This isn't Paramount Comedy. Although I did find it funny when one of the dudes on the wall thought it was necessary to announce to everyone that he wasn't here for himself, but was just accompanying his friend. LOL!
5. Why were there kids playing Usher's 'love in the club' over their mobile phone loudspeakers?- yeah, yup- that's how u got here in the first place!
6.Why would it be necessary to use a giant mutant needle and extract TWO vials of blood from me? It hurts you know. And why would you need TWO? Obviously, there is a secluded NHS conspiracy to collect blood from unwitting victims and use them for BLOOD TRANSFUSIONS. Or maybe not. But you can never be sure.
7. Did you know someone putting their fingers inside you could feel absolutely RUBBISH? I didn't know. Yesterday I just felt intruded. Not even a slight shiver. Definitely no loss of breath. YUCK!
8. Why did the Doctor literally throw a plastic conish looking thing inside me with NO WARNING which led me to scream a bit like a virgin or something.
9. And how dare she ask me to spread my legs wider? who does she think she is? GOSH!
10. Why was I asked questions like 'Are you paid for sex?'? HUH?!
Luckily, learnt something from this experience. I learnt that, at the risk of appearing to be anti-social, shifty, weird and criminal-ish, Avoiding Eye contact solves a multitude of problems :
In the waiting area, AVOID EYE CONTACT with EVERYONE at all costs. In doing so you will avoid striking up conversationS which start with phrases like 'Sooooo...I don't think Chlamydia is that bad...' and could possibly end with 'can I take you out later? :-o
In the Patient room, AVOID EYE CONTACT with the doctor at all costs. This will prevent the awkwardness of having to conversate with an ABSOLUTE STRANGER, who is now FULLY qualified to accurately describe the texture and viscosity of your sugar walls.
When you leave the clinic AVOID EYE CONTACT- WITH THE WORLD! Ladies and Gentlemen, this is the most dangerous part. This is the part where innocent, uninfected, just-being-safe people (like me) could be called out and labelled for LIFE. You know the postman saw you walking out right? and Sam's sister; and Jason from college;and your old primary school teacher; and possibly your mum
Sure Am glad I know for sure I'm clean though. Now I don't have to deal with Awkward Herpes Silence Convos.......
Ok, I don't know if i'm late, I saw this on youtube a couple of months ago but couldn't b bothered to put it up, I'm going to do it now though.
I don't know who did this or why, but I think its hilarious! I've spent many minutes laughing at this lol.
Part 1
Part 2
Remember Dubplate drama? what happened? It's not on any more.
Anyway, these clips have UNLIMITED fuckeries
* Psuedo-Patios/New York/ London accent 'can i talk 2 u 4 a sikkin?' haha, woooo! '
* 'I ain't got no baaayby' (confused, get out of my face expression) haha! course you haven't got a baby yet, she's about to give you one!
*They're saying, like, 1 word but the characters on screen are moving their lips at a mile a minute like the kung fu movies :-)
* 'Why u catchin feeeelins marn?' haha!
*'Damn, ur actin like a bumbaclart'.......*Dead* hahahahahahha
*'That's why your name is Drama.....and I'm Dionne'......*Died again*- why must you tell him what his name is? lol!
*Final death- 'I'm on my Man-period' hahaha
You know what, I can't be bothered to type out all the parts that made me laugh, I'll be here forever......Just watch them!
Before I disappear, for the record, Shystie IS the best female MC, no arguments allowed hun! I'd say she's the second best MC overall ( after Klashnekoff, ultimate bestest!) but Kano could give her a bit of a run for her monies.
On an entirely irrelevant note, ASOS sent me their catalogue today. This means they assume I currently have some sort of disposable capital. I don't. I am, however, very flattered at this assumption.
I found this song on the iLIKE box of a friend of a friend of a friend's facebook profile (its worrying, yes)
I think this song is genius because these kids actually managed to merge African music and Indie and despite the potential Tragedies that could have occured, it actually sounds great....
.....I think this is going to take over 'Lights Out' as my new favourite song for now
Also, I did that thing I do whenever I find a song I like which is go through most of their discography and see if there are any of their other songs I like.......unfortunately, I only liked 1 other tracks (A Punk).
BUT....
I wish i never watched the video because in my imagination, they were some aloof looking dudes with musical instruments and occasional jerky dance movements (like the ones Pharrell does when he's 'singing'; while we're on the subject, the sexiness of that man is not even fair!).
On watching the video I discovered thata) They are NOT aloof, Gaylord is probably a much Better adjective (I still like them though) b)No jerky dances. Just Gaylord walky bits c) I didn't like the whole rich kid crackhead vibe I was getting. Especially from the main chick. She has potential to be cast as the lovechild of Amy Winehouse and Carlton Banks.
Another fine example of video killing the radio. I still like the song though. However, there was no need for the whole gay 'concept' of the video. It remonds me of those daydreams Doug Funnie used to have in the cartoon. Also,why are these kids so willowy? You know they got the hell beaten out of them in high school right?
Damn, man! You know when someone just fills someone else's spot. I mean entirely occupies the circumference of their cavity!
I have to say its a little sad. To hear them speak, they'd probably say they were different from each other musically, but image wise- minus the 'dreads'-they're almost interchangeable! And although they're music may display slight genre variations (Pack- more hyphy clashing snap whereas The Kids are more 80's hip hop clashing bare bone but Neptune-esque production), they both rely heavily on dominating basslines for a lot of their songs.
From an A&R point of view, they were probably going for exactly the same market but 1 group is slightly better. I like them both but I have to say, I prefer the cool kids, they got that nostalgia thing down pat! They remind me of Fresh Prince and back in the days when I had no worries and Jamel Shabazz and all types of other good stuffs
This is nothing new though, happens all the time when 2 musical entities are too similar- Cases in point:
1. Nas and AZ-sounded VERY alike but Nas stayed cos he's just better
2. Coldplay and Travis- I actually forgot what Travis was called and had to google them by a song title, so bad was they're loss to Coldplay!! NOBODY can try and tell me that 'Why does it..' and 'Yellow' weren't remixes of the same damn song!
3. Robin Thicke and Jon B- RT is here....and we never saw Jon B again! (Justin does NOT count)
4. Beyonce and every damn black chic in the game- Also known as Beyonceitis http://www.beyonceitis.com/home.htm (check out this site, its HILARI!!)
5. Oasis and Blur-Talk about being annihilated! It was a draw when i was at school, by the time i left, Blur were GONE!
6. Omarion and Chris Brown- Where is Omarion....No really?
Honourable Mention: You know its only a matter of time before Duffy wiggles her nose and makes Adele dissapear right? lol
The list could actually go on 4eva...
Does anybody remember any they can add to the list??
imagine my shock wen my friend said it was...exact words 'rubbish'
i happen 2 think this chic may have that musical genius thing going on. she does sound english though. I don't think people would accredit her with the 'different' factor so much if she was english cos we get this type of leftish shit alot over here.
Every1 keeps saying she sounds like M.I.A but personally I think Santogold is what happens when you throw N.E.R.D and Gwen Stefani in a pot and stir. She sounds heavily 80s influenced too, a little bit of Missing Persons and a little Ska.
Having said all that, i love her, wanna buy her album but I know i only love 50-60% of it. I'll prob buy it anyway.
Been messin with my new laptop 4 a while now, decided 2 do something 'constructive'. Don't know if this actually counts as constructive but im doing it anyway bruv!!!!
Dont have a therapist but if I did, he'd tell me I feel better about things when I write them down so thats what Im doing. Due to chronic laziness, manual writing became typing which became blogging n.....u c where im going with this........ i threw away my book of streams of consciousness cos i was reading it and if sum1 was 2 find that......NOT A GOOD LOOK! to say the least haha!
On account of my life is so FUCKED UP lately, i choose 2 remain anonymous, but feel free to guess who I am... you might be right....I probably am the cutie sitting a few seats down on the number 12 bus on the way 2 Oxford Street.
Oh yeah..... I QUIT MY JOB TODAY!!!!!!!!
a move every1 seems to think is crazy cos ive got a pretty good job.... in a pretty good bank......but money isnt everything, n im not happy now so ill jus take sum time out n rethink.
Expect 2 see alot from me cos i get bored easily....and everyone else who does tis blog thing, give me tips with layout n stuff, cos I DONT KNOW WAT IM DOIN!!!
Im 21, lived in London all my life, moved to the suburbs a few years ago... graduated last year.....LOVE music, arty stuff n any other fun stuffs.......love Jamel Shabazz (see pic)
