Oinksip...

Current mood: indifferent

Lemsip....Oinksip?? :rolleyes: (In the UK that probably makes more sense)
 
Yeah that was a rubbish attempt at the over-whelming scenario the world faces itself just now.  So swine flu, its rubbish. 
 
Worst of all my sister is in Cancoon as we speak.  She will have to get the 'check' when arrives back on Monday.  Its a very surreal situation the world is in.  Im sure everything will work out just fine but its like something out of a movie, 'Outbreak' comes to mind.
 
Oh well we shall see how the next few weeks pan out.
 
No more Corona for me...:sad:

Here comes the bride...

Yes indeed my sister had her wedding at the weekend.  What a great day, yet again my emotions seemed to get the better of me but I tried my best.  As she walked down the aisle the harpist played the 'Braveheart' theme and it was goodnight vienna for me! A few tears later and the vows were exchanged.  The dinner was delicious and I then was given a microphone to introduce the speeches.  Yes i may have 'hogged' the mic but that was the actor in me, i havent been on stage for a couple of years.  The reception was top notch, guest arrived drinks were consumed and dances were...danced! The band that were hired were ok, the guitarist seemed to think every song had to have a face melting solo! Was good none the less.
 
My girlfriend looked gorgeous but my sister would have given Miss World a run for her money, absolutely stunning.
 
I like weddings, they are such a happy occassion, family brought together, lots of banter and more importantly...endless love.
 
Yes that is the cheesiest ending i think i have ever written....ahh what the hell!:)

Weddings, they tear me apart...

Current mood: thankful

Ive got my big sisters weeding coming up and i am going to be the MC for the day :).  Recently i was best man to my best friend and that was an over-whelming day to say the least.  I found myself utterly emotional and could not stop crying.  Its the first time i have ever experienced this before, nothing made me sad...just tears of joy. 
 
I have a feeling that when my big sisters wedding is upon us the exact same thing will happen.  Im not complaining, just scared that i might be worse.  I suppose its a nice thing to happen, happy tears.  By writing this i am in no way suggesting i am some sort of 'big man', i just think moments in life that bring this emotion should be cherished.

Just a tad frustrated...

Current mood: aggravated

 My friend owns a flat and recently (December) leased it out to a fellow.  This guy has only paid one month rent and still owes for Jan and nearly Feb.  My friend isnt am angry person nor a violent person.  The thing thats really frustrating me is that this guy is clearly taking my mate for a ride.  He has left countless messages on the guys phone but has had no reply.  The only contact that has been made was a few texts that have been sent. 
 
Last night we both went round to the flat and demanded he pays.  We were greeted once the door was opened by his wife, a cousin and who i assume was his mother.  They told us that he was at work and would be back in an hour.  We explained we wanted the rent tonight and waited in a pub near the flat.  We waited and waited and no contact was made apart from the elusive text message that he seems to think is acceptable.  The funny thing was that the guy is now threatning my friend because he informs us that we were aggressive when we went to the flat in the first place??! His wife was crying apparently and he then blamed my friend that he wasnt doing his job right...grrrrrrrrrrrr!
 
Its a complicated story but im so angry and feel very sorry for my friend.  This is un-wanted stress on his behalf.  He is now confused as to what to do.  The first thing that comes to mind is this guy is chucked out.  The only problem is that my friend basically has to cut his losses with the overdue rent if this is the case. 
 
If i was a bit taller and built like tank i may have been more helpful.  I wouldnt ever instigate something but surely if someone with that capacity was there then we could have tackled this a different way?  Anyway rant over, i want this to be sorted soon as possible.

Acting

Current mood: mellow

I studied acting from the ages of 11 to 20.  I had some great experiences and a little success.  I now work in an office 9-5 and live for the weekends.  Im slightly upset that i havent pursued my ambition but its so damn hard these days.  I am still represented by an agent in Glasgow but i am getting no work.  I guess it seems it has become a 'hobby' instead of a 'career'.  Its a shame because i miss it so much.  I dont think i will ever lose the drive for it, i will still attend the theatre and maybe try and join an amateur dramtatic society.  I just wish i had the nerve to REALLY go for it.
