Lots of things to think about over the next few weeks, and lots of assessments too, so if I don't post much, again it'll be down to that.
Firstly though, I'd like to offer up my prayers and thoughts to Fabrice Muamba, the Bolton Wanderers midfielder who suffered a heart attack on the field of play today in a match between Tottenham Hostpur and Bolton at White Hart Lane. The match was abandoned after 41 minutes and Muamba was rushed to hospital, where he is said to be 'critically ill' and in intensive care, but 'stable'. Here's to you making a full recovery man, you don't deserve to have your life cut short at 23, especially not when you have a family and a young child. We're all behind you.
Secondly, continuing with the sporting theme, congratulations to Wales for winning the Six Nations. I wouldn't usually be pleased, but their winger used to go to my school, and I feel incredibly proud to have gone to the same school as an international rugby player. I hope I can emulate his triumph by going on to be a well-known actor. If I don't then so be it, but I damn well want to be one. As for England, our young side has shown a huge amount of promise during the tournament and will go on to achieve great things I'm sure.
I have been listening today to a band called Ghost. They have caused quite a stir within the world of metal, and are probably the first band I would describe as metal without being remotely heavy. No, seriously, they're completely metal but they're a lot more melodic than their look lets on: the frontman is a skeleton Pope called Papa Emeritus, the other five wear hooded cloaks that disguise their faces and are known as Nameless Ghoul. All of them. They look like a band to play black metal with indistinguishable vocals, fast guitars and lots of bass kicks. But they don't. Here's an example of their work:
Ok, so maybe they're a little heavy, but it's unquestionably metal. And I really dig it.
I've also been continuing my Creative Writing Portfolio. I'm doing a play loosely based on the album 'The Wall' by Pink Floyd. So far I have the first 4 scenes down, and I intend to write more tomorrow. It's all looking good currently, I'm very pleased at how much I've got done today.
That's about it for my life so far. Tune in next time for the continuing adventures of me in 'My Life'.
