I really don't like it when people write quotes and then add "I hear you ask" at the end. That may be a fairly negative comment to start an entire blog with, but I had to say it because that was exactly what I was about to do. "'What's with the title?' I hear you ask". See? Doesn't that just shit you? I mean firstly they most probably weren't your exact words, and secondly, who actually thinks in WORDS? People think in THOUGHTS, they're not articulate enough to make a sweeping generalisation like that.
So after that rant I should probably actually explain what my title is about. My introduction to the blogging world was inspired mostly by the blog by my friend Gerarda (www.fallingjuiceboxes.blogspot.com) and partly by Tim Minchin's friend, the Bedroom Philosopher. However it is Gerarda that provides the inspiration for this title (see her blog for details).
The musings of my life from this point onwards, contained in this blog, will most likely be written on public transport. Hence please forgive my switching of thought-trains as I will most probably have switched actual physical trains.
I like the idea of having constant sections in a blog. This idea is inspired by the Bedroom Philosopher. Hence the following sections will hopefully be constant throughout each blog I write:
Song of the Week: Self-explanatory, yeah? The song that strikes me most in the week; probably the one that makes the people around me freak out most due to my silent headbanging. This week the winner is "When Two Are One"- Atreyu. It has that perfect mix of a mellow beginning followed by a wall of sound that will blow your mind.
Top Bloke Award: This will be awarded to the person who is not necessarily a top bloke towards me, but who is recognised as deserving of this award. For a clichéd example, a guy who helps an old lady cross the road.
Currently Listening To: Basically my music on shuffle. Whatever comes on while I'm blogging. Boring, but this is supposed to be an insight into my life right? So deal with it, bitch.
Until next time.

HEY LOOK IT'S A COMMENT ON YOUR BLOG! For some reason I feel like there's a lot of pressure on me commenting this blog because my blog inspired you to write your blog, so I feel like it should be profound and full of blog related advice. Unfortunately I can't guarantee that in this comment and this comment is non-refundable... so you're just going to have to live with whatever I come up with. Also you'd better post more than three blogs because if you don't I'll think I've failed as a blogging mentor type person. hahaha your silent head banging always amuses me. I also except you to have a bibliography page where you Harvard style reference me for using my work as the title AND URL name of your blog. =D You used my line NOW I OWN YOU. that's not weird at all...
ReplyDeleteHurrah, another surrenders to the mass-conspiracy that is blogging.. :)
