Journal Entry: Sun Jul 27, 2008, 9:04 AM
Sorry I haven't had time to comment, :+fav: or submit lately - I'm sooooper busy!
Umm soo what's new... my sister-in-law is very very pregnant and past her due date so we're waiting patiently for our new nephew to decide to show his face :giggle:
It was my birthday on Thursday - I'm now the grand old age of 22! Eek! I got some fandabidosi birthday presents: ~mole2k got me lots of bath bombs from Lush and a Mr Frosty slushie-maker (I'm a big child at heart :XD:). I got some cookbooks, a mini-greenhouse for my plants and.... METALLICA TICKETS! They're playing at Marlay Park in August with Tenacious D, I can't wait! :excited:

Nothing else new but I'm going to see the Dark Knight tonight - I've heard it's fantastic :D

How are all of you? :)

What's New
I'm doing some gig photography on Friday night for the first time since Halloween. It's in a pub with really bad lighting and I'm meant to be providing a shot for the newspaper so wish me luck. Stephen has a cutthroat razor so we'll hopefully be doing some Sweeney Todd-esque shots soon. Oh and we're in the middle of trying to come up with some advertising. Right now I'm designing a "Back to School" money off coupon for the newspaper to drum up a bit of interest while we work on longer term marketing. What fun!

Print Sale
I'm reducing my print sale to the thumbs below. Go on, you know you want one. As I mentioned in my last journal, they cost £15 and come fully mounted :D

:heart: Bought by the super =cougars :heart:

Lol yeah, since I was a kid when my parents asked what I wanted for xmas/my birthday I couldn't decide but this year I was like, "well *cough* Metallica are playing in Marlay Park in August *cough*" :giggle: Because it's Marlay Park I might be able to sneak my camera in too - they didn't check bags or anything when we went to see Morrissey :XD:

And wow the Dark Knight was awesome! Heath Ledger has definitely left a legacy - I don't think anyone could replace him as the joker now... Aaron Eckhart was cool too and Gary Oldman! :D

Eckhart was really good and OMG!!! I love Gary Oldman!!! I have been obsessed over that guy for a few years now!!! :giggle: You always completely forget that its him acting!!! He's that good!!! :wow::XD:

Yeah I've been a big fan of Oldman for quite a while, love him in the 5th Element and Leon - he was the only decent character in the Harry Potter films and they killed him off! :faint:
