Half Term's Over..

Oh, I'm gutted. We've had a whole week off school, and I've accomplished nothing.
Isn't it great?

Okay, this was my to-do list before half term:

Get Textiles C/W finished
Do English essays
Tab out Ready, Set, Go
Go see Uncle Rob
Look after the dog
Start a few covers (guitar only)
See Alice

Now, the only things I've done are looking after the dog, and start a few covers. I've done all Tokio Hotel XD

Anyway. We'll go see my Uncle next weekend.

Oh, god.
I have to go to school tommorow.
Damn.
I'm ill again. XD, no.

Anyway, that's it.
Tommorow.

Tokio Hotel Won Best Onlinestar at the Comet!!

I'm in such a good mood today! Tokio Hotel walked away with yet another award!!

:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Also, I've got to sort out my Tokio Hotel pictures today. All 6,427 of them. Good lord.
This is going to take a while :P

Oh - and I'm getting a new computer mic today :D

I love Tom's new hair!

It's taken me a while to get used to, but I'm really starting to like it now. :) I love Bill's anyway, but Tom's has taken ages for me to get used to. I still prefer his old hair, but it's his hair, and a Kaulitz can never look bad! Plus, I love the new piercing, I think it's georgous :P

Let me know what you think of it :D

I'm ill!! :(((

Heyo :(

I'm really ill today. I've had this unreal headache and I've been throwing up all day. :(
Worst of all, I missed getting one of the new fashion against aids Tokio Hotel T-shirt because my mum said I was too ill to go :'( :'(

I almost cried, because I've been waiting for one for AGES! Then today, they were released - and I couldn't go!!! :(

I was meant to be going out really early into town, but I was up at three, completely unable to even keep a glass of water down :(
I'm a little better now though, I've still not eaten, but I'm keeping water down fine. :)
I came up with a really good guitar riff this morning as well, but I've gone and forgotten it now. Plus my wrist is really itchy. :S

I hope I'm better tommorow, so I can go and get the new shirt.
So, anyway, today's been pretty much focused around that, but also..

My mum's friend came round, and once again, they both got through about 20 cigarettes.
Fools :)

I've finally decided how I'm going to have my hair next time. I'm doing it black again, but I've decided to have one massive red streak down the side, I think that should look pretty striking :)

I'll do it as soon as I can :)

Anyway, that's about all that's going on in my life at the moment. :)

Ten reasons to start playing guitar

Heyo :)

I love, love, love my guitars, and I seriously think there aren't enough guitarists in the world.

Okay, so here it is, ten reasons why you should start playing your parents old, battered acoustic that you found in the attic.

1) It opens up loads of new opportunities
2) It's great for singers, as it's one of the best ways of playing your own songs, and it's most people's favourite instrument.
3) It lets your creativity run wild, and it's a great way to express yourself
4) Guitarists get a lot of recognition from sites like YouTube.
5) It's awesome to be able to play guitar if you'd like to be/ are in a band.
6) You can look up how to play your favourite songs on the Internet.
7) It makes you more individual.
8) People tend to respect you more when you have a skill like playing guitar.
9) It's great fun!
10) It's great for passing the time

It is frustrating at first, I know. But once you get the hang of it, you can start to play any song you like, they even have tabs for dance/pop songs, it's not just about rock! the only disadvantage is the tips of your fingers go a bit gross, and if you have weak nails, they might snap or flake off a bit, but nothing serious.

Trust me, playing guitar is so rewarding!

Just a rant on labels. I'm sorry for being so mean :(

Right. I hate labelling.
I hate it, hate it. And at the moment, it appears people are labelling themselves. What??!!
I've always taken it as an insult when people have tried to categorise me, so why have you lot started calling YOURSELVES emos, chavs, goths, scene, punk, girly... whatever?
I don't get it. Each person should be different, and when I walk round town, or whatever, all I see is people who dress the same, act the same, listen to the same music, even paint their rooms the same way! Has the world gone mad?!
I hate this kind of thing with a passion.

Right, so you've got your basic emo. Black hair, lots of eye make up, listening to depressing music, boots that look like bricks, black skinny jeans, jesus cross pendant necklace, I think that's what most of us would class as an emo, right? Well, I'd love to know if you class yourself as an emo. How many of you are there in this world? HAVE YOU LOST YOUR SENSE OF INDIVIDUALITY? Isn't that what being emo is about anyway? God, honestly. All you lot seem to do is copy each other.

Basic chav. Tracksuit, probably Lacoste or something, white trainers, baseball cap, fag in mouth, kids at a young age, stupid accent, socks over trowsers? That's about right, I'm sure. I don't get what's so great about being a chav, so please, enlighten me. You all hang around with each other in big gangs and terrorise old women? Hmm... you're living the life.

I truly wish all this labelling would end. Maybe, like me, you've got black hair and wear wristbands, but you are not an emo. You are yourself. Maybe, you like wearing trackies because you do a lot of sport, or they're comfy. That dosen't make you a chav.

So, I ask you people, what do you get from being labelled, or labelling yourselves?
I know a lot of people do it. That is my question to you.

*Sorry, I needed to get that out of system - it's just a rant of disapproval, please don't slag me off, we all have these little outbursts*

Haha, "Lez Zepplin"!!!!

I made a slight spelling mistake on my profile :)

It's a bit obvious, probably :)
I accidentally misspelled Led Zepplin, "Lez Zepplin" :O
I know.
But oh well, I'll live :)
Well done Jamie by the way, I love your new song!!! :) :)
It's legendary :)
& thankyou for commenting on my last blog entry :)


Anyway, my friends are off to Alton Towers today, which I didn't want to go to (they were up at 8!), so I don't think I'll be seeing any of them today :)

Also, I really think I should start my coursework today, but it's so boring! I only went and chose Textiles, which I despise. I'm meant to have completed like, ten pages by now, and I've done five. I'm too lazy to do the rest :)
I've got way too much work anyway, I've got to sort out my work experience, but I really cannot be bothered. I do work anyway - I'm a part time babysitter :)

I think we're buying a new hover today as well - I accidentally broke the last one :O

Anyway, I think that's about it that's on at the moment, so I shall post more later in the day :)

PS - I ran a spellcheck :)

I was born musical, you see :)

I got reminded of this today :)

I've been making up songs since I was really little, and the first one I ever came up with was called, Musical Jess, which I insisted wasn't about my sister, and so I pronounced it Jezz. Cunning. :)
It was a blend between heavy metal, screamo and barbershop. :S I know. I thought it was really good at the time, and I was convinced it'd get to number one in the charts :)
Strangely, it was actually about my sister, and how she'd got out of the bath and left the bathroom floor covered in water. :)

It never did make it into the charts :(

The first band I was ever in was called the Purple Swirls, which consisted of me, my sister and an obese girl called Siobhan. She was ginger too. And she crapped in the park. I'm convinced that she only joined because she thought a purple swirl was a kind of ice cream. She used to post pictures of food through our door. But enough about her.
We were a horrendous singing group, who wrote songs about rainbows and fairies. Curiously, we always seemed to give Siobhan the verse which mentioned some kind of food. Like bread. We all sang like sheep on acid, but everyone pretended to like our music, nonetheless. We used to perform at the park in front of our parents, our friends, and whoever else happened to be there at the time. The purple swirls came to a sad end when my sister and I decided we didn't like Siobhan anymore. I thought it was a bit sad to sing with my sister, so the Purple Swirls ended, much to our parent's delight.

A year later, I met a girl called Laura, and she was a tomboy I had to save from a swamp once. We were really close, best friends even, and it wasn't long before we decided to start another band. I played the flute at the time, and she played the tambourine, and so came The Early Dreamers. However, both of us were a bit preoccupied with the instruments to think about writing lyrics, so that band finished relatively quickly.

I then decided I purely a soloist, and I gave up flute and started sing solo. Of course, I was dreadful, and still sounded like a sheep on acid, and however much I tried, I never seemed to get a singing part in the school plays. I could sing in key, but I tended to warble, and seeing as I'm a bit too white for that, it didn't work out.

Then, it was high school, and I felt very betrayed by my voice, and it took a whole year for me to regain my confidence. I took singing classes for two years, and I encouraged a few others to join, and we ended up a singing group, which was good while it lasted, but then year 9 came to a close, and year ten dawned upon us, and all of us gave it up, knowing we couldn't miss classes anymore.

Since then, I've started to play guitar, which I started doing in November, and I am now a self taught guitarist/vocalist. Some of my singing friends have kept up the singing, and one of them has started uploading videos of herself singing onto youtube.

*Took the link off - sorry, apparently she didn't want it up*

I would love to be in a band again, but my friends aren't as enthusiastic, so it'll have to wait I guess. :)

Byebyes for now x x

Every wizard needs a wand :) Preferably a Tokio Hotel one :)

A couple of months back, I bought some Tokio Hotel guitar picks, which I love, but I lost them a few weeks ago, and today I found them! :) Yay! Yay! I'll be strumming merrily all day :)

Speaking of, my fingers have been really sore since yesterday - seeing as it's half term I've been playing a lot more than usual. It used to be about 2 hours a day, now it's all day. :S Maybe too much. Anyway, it's only three days before the fashion against aids t-shirts come out, and I shall be first in line queueing up outside H&M. :) I want the Tokio Hotel one loads, it's so hard to get t-shirts from them here, and finally, our time has come! :D

I really want to get back into video editing, I haven't done it since the computer got wiped and I lost all my best work :'(

But anyway, that doesn't matter, because on the 28th the t-shirts come out, then on the 29th it's the Comet Awards, where Tokio Hotel will be claiming yet more awards, no doubt. :D

Byebyes for now x x x

The Crowns!!

I love this band! they are truly amazing!
They're called The Crowns, and they did a song called Let it go, which I am in love with!
It's unsigned, but oh my god!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5m4BfJToQU

It's truly amazing! :) :)

That is my favourite song at the moment. Wow.
I've been messing about with my guitar for most of the day, and I've learned to play 1000 Oceans by Tokio Hotel and Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol. I know the intro to Decode by Paramore too, but I'm still working on it :)

I'm going to have to buy a new computer mic soon, I really want to upload some covers :)

I haven't eaten yet, I probably should.... :/
Anyway, I found the hottest picture of Bill today. Tadda!! He looks so cute without his make-up :) Love x x x

I'm not obsessed with Tokio Hotel!

I'm sorry my first blog has to be about this. But, I'm so sick to death of people accusing me of being obsessed with Tokio Hotel.

I had a bit of an argument with some random hater who made a youtube account purely for hating Tokio Hotel, and it went something like this:

ME: "You must lead such a sad life, to take out all your insecurity on 4 georgous talented boys who really don't deserve it. Two words: FUCK YOU!"

HIM: "the tragic part is that I DO have a life unlike you, an ignorant little girl who likes a band of 4 untalented ugly fags that fuck each other every day and earn millions because of you stupid little kids. two words: YOURE PATHETIC."

ME: "They make millions because they have a thing called : TALENT. They have millions of fans because they have TALENT - and not to mention good looks. We're not all 12 year old maniacs - you can be 40 and love Tokio Hotel. I really don't see what your problem is. Curb your jealousy, dickhead! "

Anyway it escalated into a really big fight that lasted for two days, and he finally left me alone, saying this.

"eveything's about tokio hotel huh? youre very obsessed as far as i can see. i was like this before, i loved green day and i still do but i wont reply to a hater cause its just not worth it. nobody's gonna spoil my day and especially someone on youtube. i think you just take this too personally. anyway... i dont think this is going anywhere i think youre very offended so im not gonna keep insulting you."

I'M NOT OBSESSED!!!!
I'M NOT!!!!

Anyway, enough about that horrible twat face man.

I'm trying to write songs, but I'm crap. I'll usually come up with a nice bridge, and then I'll hear it a few times and hate it. It's really annoying! It just comes so naturally to some people. I am not some people. I find excedingly difficult to pour my heart out into a song, because I'm naturally very uptight. There's this girl on youtube, and she can write an amazing song in like half an hour. I've been doing it half my life, and I can't even come up with a basic melody. No wonder I'm failing english :S

She's awesome by the way, look her up, she's called J'Lostein as an artist, and her real name is Jamie.

But, god! I don't get it, I've always had an acceptable singing voice (nothing special though), and I play guitar and a bit of piano and I could probably do bass as well. I'm one of the most musical people I know in person, and yet I can't write a song, I can only cover. And I can't even do that for the moment, until I get another computer mic. It sucks!

Also, it's four in the morning.

I should probably go to sleep, ja?

Well, that kinda concludes my first blog post, then, although I don't think I'll be posting again for a while, thank my mother.

I'll try and post over half term though, I've been meaning to start a blog for ages!

Gute nacht x x
