Yikes, it's been well over a year since my last journal... I should really try and update more often! Well, I'll keep it short-ish and sweet as it has been a long and exhausting week for me and I need to catch up on some sleep.

As you may guessed my life in general has been getting slightly heptic over the past few weeks. I went back to college last week and I am now studying a BTEC National Diploma in Jazz which so far has been a good experience and I am already feeling like I have learnt lots of interesting cool stuff already.

Also about 2 months ago I started my new blues/rock group "Smokestack Lightnin'" (named after the Howlin' Wolf song)... and after a few complications it looks like we almost have a perminantly commited line up! We have written lots of our songs and coverd an array of songs spanning different genres such as Swing, Rockabilly, Blues, etc etc. So in the next few months we should be looking at catching some gigs.

Then there's also my job that I started mid June time working as a shoop floor assistant in a local supermarket. I only intended this to be a summer job, but the manager has been really cool with my college hours and schedule so he lets me work around it. So, yeah I'll probably be going on with that until more well paid musical oppertunties arrived!

Anyway, with all the new stuff being going on I havn't really had time for dA latley and it's unfortunatley becoming more of a chore than a pleasure to check my account as I have being busy and have generally started to loose interest. Moreover, I have decided that I am going to close this account soon and possibly make a new, less heptic one in the future.

Well in the just approaching two years I've been on here I have met some really cool people... I recantly met up with Ross in the summer which went really well.. we had a laugh, some cool chats, and yeah I had a great time!

It's been cool meeting you all, I hope to stay in touch.

Kindest Regards,

J.

Well, I have just finished my final GCSE exam this morning (Science) which means that technically my school life is over and that I now have the whole summer of three months to do whatever I please =3 After developing my C programming skills, I now aim to attempt programming some POV-Ray, thus meaning that I might be submitting some screenshots of the stunning images that can be made using POV-Ray if all goes well.

I am approaching my 1,000 page view so I would like to thank all my friends on dA for making that possible. Anyway, I am going to get some lunch now.
