Loneliness...

Hi everyone!
Thank you, Georgia. The title of your post reminded me just what a great song Loneliness by Sonya Kitchell is. Listen to it. It's a great lullaby. Just started re-listening the Academy Is... album, 'cause I haven't done so for a while. It's just one of those things which all seems to blur into one, a bit like "From Under the Cork Tree". But it's not bad.
So what's going down at the moment? Well, not much, I must admit. Trying to organise some kind of meet-up for Tuesday, which should be fun. Apart from that, I feel nicely relaxed after the hectic pace of school. I had my last exam for a while yesterday, English Lit. As i say, it wasn't the end, it was sort of a brief relief of tension. A bit like the battle of Helm's Deep in LotR. It wasn't the climax of the whole thing, but it was the climax of the second book/movie. So yeah, it was a ferocious beast, and I vanquished it appropriately with an epic soundtrack and particle effects so massive they would make even the lightest SWG servers laggy. But I can't rest on my laurel just yet (Ah, that's where it got to. Knew that felt a bit pricklier than usual.), because an even bigger monster is looming on the horizon. Ten times the height of a man, with fangs as long as your forearm and eighty thousand tentacles writhing from each finger, this creature has skin as thick as lead and a bellow so deafening you can see it from Space - That's right, see it! It goes by the name....of HISTORY!! However, have hope, for with the eternally-sharp, all-penetrating blade of essay-writing and the unbreakable diamond shield of source analysis, clad in the shimmering magic armour of Your Own Knowledge, I am ready for any opponent, regardless of size, strength or intelligence.
But not just yet.
What else? Oh, I've finally plugged the old keyboard back in, and I'm busily working on what will (hopefully) be a massive five-track epic, provided I don't get bored, which in an ideal world would form the finale to my first album, be it with band in tow or not. The New Moon poster has been released, which is (A) very cool, 'cos it looks awesome, but (B) very annoying, 'cos I haven't seen the first one yet. Someday...

See ya 'round!

Jack
