Swine Flu

Right... so the media orgy over swine flu seems to have come and gone... why?

Why are the newspapers not really raving about it anymore? It seems to be spreading like fucking wildfire but yet being swept under the carpet.

Today's news on the BBC. Not the BBC headline, just on another part of the BBC page:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/8092474.stm

A four-fold jump in Australia's swine flu infections could spark a WHO pandemic announcement, experts warn.

The virus has infected more than 26,500 people in 73 countries

Health Minister, Paul Lucas, has warned it was inevitable the contagious respiratory condition would claim lives

The World Health Organization last declared a pandemic 41 years ago


Evidently this is pretty serious shit. Start buying the masks, people...

Mumbai Calling

I'm in Mumbai for the next couple of months and I'm loving it! This city is amazing (although I already miss London a bit - I've been here 5 weeks!).

I want Jorge Garcia to comment on my fucking blog. What do I have to do to convince him to do it? He is fantastic. And his girlfriend is gorgeous. His life is too good. I'm jealous.... mmmmmm......

If anyone reading this knows either the lovable hunk, Jorge, or his beautiful girlfriend, Bethany, please tell them to comment on my bloody blog!

I am an attention-seeker, I admit it....

Slumdog Millionaire

Pretty damn good right? Thought it was fucking amazing. One of the best films I've ever seen and possibly my favourite British film along with A Clockwork Orange.

Hello hello hello

To be honest, my loyal readers (comprising mostly of myself and my alter-ego Bradley the Barbarian), I am only writing this blog in the vain hope that Jorge Garcia will comment on it. You see, it would give me recognition for my amazing input into the world of blogging, if I was commented on or referenced in the blog of the aforementioned blogger.

In other news, here are some updates on my life.

  • I am fairly intoxicated right now.
  • I am currently working at a call centre in Wimbledon, South-west London.
  • I am on a gap-year, I will be doing charity work in Gambia in January.
  • I will be working as an assistant to the Assistant Director on a Bollywood film set in March/April.
  • I am raising money to go on a trip with two of my chums to New York.
  • I have an erection.
  • The last point was a joke.
  • Or was it?
  • This clearly shows the exciting life I lead.
Any questions?

Does anyone read this blog?

... didn't think so... if you happen to stumble upon this page then please let me know so I know that people are out there! I only created this account so I could write on Jorge Garcia's blog comments but I thought some occasional blogs would be fun.

I found this random questionnaire on the internet and will now proceed to fill it out.

1- Get the closest book, go to page 18 and write the 4th line down.
"which also might have been done by the pressure of the fingers"
(it's a book about Jack the Ripper)

2- What’s the last thing you’ve watched on TV ?
The episode of Friends in which Joey jumps in front of Ross to save a sandwich when he thinks he hears a gunshot. 'twas hilarious.

3- Without checking, guess what time it is ?
17h50

4- Check, it is…
17h54

5- Outside of the computer noise, what do you hear ?
Some blues music playing downstairs...

6- When you got out the last time, what did you do ?
Went to an editing course about Final Cut Pro in Euston (central London)

7- What are you wearing ?
Jeans, white vest, cardigan (if you're still reading this, I assume the questions will get more interesting)

8- Before answering this questionnaire, what were you watching ?
I was reading Jorge Garcia's blog

9- Did you dream last night ?
Yes. It was about me being attached to a kite and then when I came down this really cute girl said that I was really good at being attached to a kite. Then I kissed her. Then I woke up and was angry that it was a dream.

10- When is the last time you laughed ?
When I watched a video on youtube about some stupid people in America. One of them thought that we use American dollars in the UK...

11- What is on the walls of the room you’re in ?
A school photo, a news clipping about Karl Pilkington, some Lost posters and a tribal shield from Nigeria.

12- Did you see something strange today ?
I saw that someone had written "I am a sign" on a no smoking sign. I found it fairly amusing.

13- What do you think of this questionnaire ?
It's erotic. But seriously, it's boring me; I hope it gets better.

14- What’s the last movie you watched ?
Tropic Thunder - when I was in California during the summer.

15- Should you be multimillionnaire, what’s the first thing you would buy ?
A really good prostitute, I mean, "I would donate the money to charity".

I'm on a gap year and then I will hopefully study Film Production at Westminster University in London.

17- If you could change something in the world outside of culpability and politics, what would you change ?
Make everyone green instead of white, black, brown or whatever so there'd be no racism. Also it would look funny if everyone was green.

18- Do you like to dance ?
No.

19- George Bush ?
He doesn't know how to handle any type of situation and he has brought the world's view of America back 300 years. OBAMA 08!

Not sure... Karl?

22- Did you ever think of living abroad ?

Yeah. They didn't go well.

Ah, I don't care now. I am free as a bird. I have been drunk or stoned 4 times since my last exam on Friday and plan to continue this behaviour all summer. I should probably get a job though because I only have about £35 to last me for cigarettes and alcohol for the next few months.

So last Friday I went to my "6th Form Ball". Basically kinda like an American prom except that the teachers and students all get ridiculously drunk. The highlight of my night was hitting my head of year on to the floor and calling him a 'motherfucker'.

... I'm going to miss school....

Ok...so I have A Levels

I have A Level exams but last weekend I spent 2 hours watching Lost instead of working. Then instead of working I went onto Youtube and listened to lots of Karl Pilkington clips and then in the evening went to the pub.

That pretty much sums up my life. My exams are going to be terrible.... ah well...
