Straight edge means I'm better than you...the musical fan blog of a Liverpudlian musician/haphazard producer who is very poor, both morally and financially. Listening habits can be found on Last FM.
University, what a pile of considerable debt…
Yep, finally working out what I should do in regards to university. I somewhat thank whoever lost all of my paperwork etc for applying initially all those…wow, 4 years ago? Possibly 5? Due to the fact I have had a life of jobs, travelling around the country/going around internationally/playing music etc, but now I’d like to go to uni.
Not for a career step, oh no, I want to go and study Napoleonic history/applied psychology/advanced studio production and 2 other types of courses, I’m doing it for my own education and happiness. I’m always a guy who will owe a little bit of money back to the government so why not enhance that amount before commiting hilarious suicide in a few years time?
May stick around up here in the land of Liverpool but then again I do want some refreshing new views. That rules out most of the UK apart from Glasgow though. Whatever, I need to get my head focused for writing and applying to all this junk another day. Considering international studies as well…but I need to reaquaint myself with education before convincing myself Ontario/Milan would be nice to head to just yet. Milan seems most likely, I just need to refresh my Italian language skills, I used to be so fluent when I was a wee child, now I’m just a national stereotype jawline.
Have enough egomaniacal statements to go in the “tell us how much of a self convincing ego whore you are!” sections of UCAS and frankly if I get to interview stages of these things my honest to life process of ‘no, I’m here to further educate myself, not to go on to be useless at a job that will suck blood from my veins every single fucking day’ should sway me pretty well. I WANT TO LEARN, MAN!
Plus, if I can find a competent and ambitious drummer through university folk then fuck, I can take the debt and finally just force him/her into a studio to finish one of the 20 EPs I have without a percussive element. INSTANT SUCCESS. Maybe. Not.
Anyhow I needed to spit this out for some reason, plus it’s easy to delete things from tumblr a week later so take it easy, boys/girls/inbetweens.
