Happy Ish New Year

Happy New Year ..

its been a really strange one so far, ups and downs already and its only the 16th of the month. I did actually start the year full of energy and optimism but today due to just a little thing i feel a bit like the winds been knocked out of my sales. checked a link which hadn't been downloaded as much as i thought and it just kinda stopped me in my tracks..why do i let theses minute thing affect me?? anyhoo just about to bitch slap myself back into motivation - not really the best way to start my 09 blog but hey...i look at it like things will only get better.

Don't get me wrong its only this morning that i started feeling like this. I've already had a really productive year..uploaded a mix already, secured 2 possibly 3 radio shows (one starts tonight..I'll post up the link in a mo), got a few gigs lined up for February so i should be over the moon, but sometimes as a high achiever you always want more.. i think personally its down to the fact that i have given up chocolate my body just doesn't know how to deal without it.. call it cold turkey..why do they call withdrawal from anything cold turkey?? now that is something i will have to look into and get back to you about! hehe..

I'll have to reach for my apple..yummy.. :(

Everyone and their pet chinchilla is saying that this year is not 2009 but 2000 and Mine, i like the sentiment and I'm gonna roll with it.. i think I'll log down some plans / goals within this blog. I love looking back in December and saying ooh yes I've done that or still need to get on with that its quite cathartic, as is writing full stop.

so here goes:

Move forward career wise..cant say too much there but my situation has to change upwards!!!

Obtain a residency in a club or bar

hold down a radio show for at least 3 Months

Have produced a minimum of 8 mix tapes and 4 mini mixes

Embark on my career as a music producer!!!

Embark on my side line career as a graphic designer

have completed at least half of the goals above!!!

Give up New Years resolutions...

I have a secret ambition too which i may reveal at the end of the year depending on how it went!!!

But, I think that's pretty much it. I'll leave world peace and curing cancer till next year though. I feel better already having sat down and tapped away on my keyboard.

oooh!!! Big Brother Rocks at the moment, just heard that Coolio is to be investigated to apparently bullying the other house mates! what a load of tosh! If Coolio wasn't in the house (HIS HOUSE!!! HAHA)it would have been soo boring, Michelle Ulrika and her cronies all know that by pulling for the bullying card they can effectively get more airtime and have their main competition kicked out of the house. its just not like it used to be anymore the certain innocence (if you can call it that of the whole experience has gone. everyone seems so savvy on tactics and what big bruv himself is up to that its not really fresh anymore. I'm just praying that they don't kick coolio out because then there really would be no point watching. he main thing i have to say is why do they find coolio intimidating when Tina is twice as abrasive, twice as aggressive?? i hate to draw for the race card but watching certain things and seeing how society is veiled in racism, sorry blatant racism is amazing to me! In 2000 Mine you really would not believe it would still be happening on national tele..

So big Brother has actually entertained me so far and helped me start my year in a memorable way..well till March kicks in and I'll be like Cooli-who..???

And when the hell is Heroes coming back!!!!!

Oh well i'm gone..Figa It Out
