So. My first blog, currently being typed with a stomach-full of what I only noticed on the last bite to be egg of a disturbingly green nature - so possibly my last blog. Now, I hear you ask - what's been happening in the world of Joseph?

Well, quite a lot and not a lot at the same time - as always. In moving back up to Sheffield, (hello new housemates), I haven't really got much to show for my week and a half here. I suppose I'll make like Owen and split up my life with colour-coding, it certainly brightens things up.

In the red corner, my life socially. My first days of Presidency (Rock Society) have been hectic ones - in no way. It basically involves me telling people what to do, so is awesome. Tomorrow is the day of fresher n00bs signing up, those damn n00bs. I look forward to pwn1ng d3m n00bs with my spec. attack of m3t4L kn0wl3dg3 (power level = three hundred and seventy thousand billion).

The committee looks like it's going to be fabulous this year - a very nice range. After a decidedly average-to-poor summer (read: shit, apart from holiday, curry nights/ jams with my best buds, and gigs), it's nice to be back up here with my fellow heavy metallion heads. Two drunken Corps later, it appears that the worst is yet to come regarding my liver - a full on week of pure pain in the sake of entertaining freshers. I kid, it will be great. But in a really painful exhaustive way. Plus then I've got the pleasure of the ol' what wi' the ol' dahn wi' the ol' lectures and shit to look "forward" to (read: any other direction).

....and in the blue corner, my life artistically and otherwise. Musically, having written and recorded another Meshuggah rip-off track for my project with dear William - Procyon B, things are looking better than usual (I actually have something to show for hours of sitting around staring at the guitar). Giggigically, (copyright, new word), have recently seen Hideous Miscreation (best bud's brutal band), a couple of times, as well as Electric "fucking" Wizard, with Dying Fetus/ Cannibal Corpse next on the calendar. I have also recently discovered a sub-genre I am now in love with - djent. Not to be confused with the chugga, or the dun-dun varieties of progressive extreme metal, it refers to the sound the guitar makes when you D-JEEEEENT the living fuck out of it; (Research: Bulb, Periphery, Cloudkicker).

Literaturally, (copyright +1), I've been writing a new short story, but I shan't go into details because it would kill your mind trying to comprehend its deep meaning and social satire. It's still a mess, and has a working title of "Beta-351" - and it's bleak as fuck. No hope, y'all.

So, I have fully decided on my tattoo. This is to be placed on my inner forearm, to be permanently etched into my flesh in December. Merry Christmas, mum!

Having recently watched loads of stuff, I can thoroughly recommend Inglourious Basterds as the best film I've seen all year, followed closely by District 9 (fockin' prons!) Deadwood is also in my now playing - Western drama starring people who can act, as well as Hitman as Bullock. Watch it - it's the business.

Back in Black, that's all I have for now. More soon, yo, hope you all had a great Talk Like a Pirate Day last week. Idiots.
