  • sometimes..

    sometimes i feel my life’s falling apart,
    sometimes i feel my life’s yet to start,
    sometimes i feel like im such a let down,
    sometimes i feel like i de-serve a crown,
    sometimes i urge after things i should not,
    sometimes i think about those I’ve forgot,
    sometimes it hurts, when i think of my past,
    sometimes i wonder how long will this last?
    sometimes im presented with a decision to make,
    and put on the spot, and my emotions could break,
    sometimes i wonder if im actually ill,
    sometimes i wonder what it feels like to kill,
    sometimes i wonder, how long will it take,
    and how many more of my words must i break,
    sometimes i think what’s the point in all this,
    sometimes all i want in life is a kiss,
    sometimes i sit here, crying sad tears,
    that’s something that ive had to deal with for years,
    sometimes i write poems, to try and relieve,
    the tension that is built up in side of me,
    always the same when i get to the end,
    put on a smile and try to pretend,
    that things are ok, in the life of olstar,
    the only thing good in my life wears a bra.

  • house sitting + new car

    well, what a week. me and nic were at my mums on sunday when totally out of the blue, my mum asked if we would look after her house, for 2 and a half WEEKS! at first, i was shocked, as i never thought i would be trusted again with her house, since my last week there the last time they went on holiday. nothing went wrong nothing got stolen or broke, just had a few mates round and blazed the fuck up! but it seems since i have been with nic, my mums whole opinion of me has changed, and now i can be trusted. pfft. :p

    so i guess this is kind of a test, for me and nic, to see if we can actually live together, alone! so far so good tho, we’ve been there 2 days and have only fallen out once! which is a lot less than expected!

    more good news to, i bought a car! i was looking on ebay for a nice reliable, tax’d and mot’d car..to have as a runabout, and what did i find? a polo classic! rock on! its done just over 100k, taxed for 10 months, and MOT’d till august next year, al for £205! bargain basement!

    now to you guys, this car probably looks ass. but i can assure you, this car will look ace with a set of wheels, and some slamm’ige 🙂 so watch this space! WOOP WOOP ill have wheels again! yeahhhh!

  • 120 hours non stop..

    time ticks away, and my head continues to fill with strange thoughts.i hate being put in positions that mean i have to make a decision that will affect the rest of my life. the first of its kind was the decision whether or not i wanted to stay in school, or go to college. wow, that seems so long ago now. well, it was! and along the journey i call life, i have had to make similar decisions such as whether or not to leave my job, and go work for bill (which was a fucking mistake) and again, i am in one of those positions, and im shitting myself.

    i have the opportunity to work 5 days a week 24 hours a day. so a week, NON STOP. what i would be doing, is id be working on maxxd in the day, then from about 3 or 4 o’clock, id go to a security job, on which i can sleep. so i wouldn’t go home for a week! now this all sounds a bit too much, and the thought of not seeing my own bed for a whole week makes me sad. but if i dont do something soon im gonna burst. i feel myself being sucked into the norm.. routine.. 9-5.. i dont just want to be a number. and i guess the thing im worried about more than anything, is telling the people here at mmx3. i dont want to feel ive let them down, and i dont want to leave them in the shit. but i defiantly dont want to stay here, and join the queue for a normal life. im not normal, and i dont want to be normal. i want to be me, and i want people to know me. so ill do whatever it takes to get where i want to be.

    and if that means working 120 hours a week non stop, then so be it.

    fucking dreading it tho!

  • ipod’s – more than just a mp3 player?

    Venice Beach, CA. Revere Greist, an amateur bike racer in Los Angeles, said his iPod likes the rapper 50 Cent — and perhaps more importantly, that it knows exactly the right time to play 50 Cent’s most famous song, “In Da Club.”

    haha, i was checkin out the register, when i stumbled on a review on the ipod shuffle. i started reading it and half way down there is a bit about how ipods can sence stuff, and prefer different types of music?

    absalute garbage u say?

    i feel quite stupid saying this, but i dont no if its bollocks or not!

    here is a quote from the NYT website:

    “Revere Greist, a doctoral student and amateur bicycle racer in Los Angeles, has concluded that his iPod’s Shuffle command favors the rapper 50 Cent – and perhaps more important, that it knows exactly the right time to play 50 Cent’s biggest hit, “In Da Club.” He finds the dramatic beat, coupled with the lyrics “Go Shorty, it’s your birthday,” inspirational.”

    now i own a ipod, and it obviously has a shuffle option on it, and i have to say that a lot of the time i wonder if it does pick specific tracks out, as the same 50 or so tracks get played ALL the time?!

    but thinkin about it logically, it cannot be true, so it must be conicidence.

    there are a lot of people saying that their ipod (for example) like rap music, but on further investigation 8 out of 10 tracks on the person ipod would be rap music, so its hardly coincidence!

    but it does remain a mystery, as mine DOES appear to prefer types of music! 🙂
