the_shine

Anyway I'm done with all the guff now bring on the good old times. I basically need to sort everything in my life out ASAP. I've been a sloppy shine of lateand getting into some old nasty destrucutve habits and this wont do at all.I'm very pissed at myself but what else is new!! Plus I've been acting like a total dick to a few folk who dont deserve it!!

Just been offered an amazing chance to prove myself , my ability and my talents.... Will I take it??? Of course. I have to be deliberatly vague on this one , sorry but it involves me doing something in the public eye and I'd prefer not too many people know about it . Put it this way have you ever been invited to see a mates band and their shit then you have to lie about it later to their face? Something like that. So to avoid said situation I'm keeping myself to myself and hopefully it will bring good things.

Theres something about alot of people in Glasgow in bands or who work at certain places and go to certain bars/clubs which I dont really understand. They want to be a name and have their name recognised. Like instant fame.

The main problem I think with being a name is no-one ever actually appreciates what you do or whatever it is you too is so forgetable they only remember your name. If you only want to be recognised and told how great you are why dont you just wear a t-shirt saying

'My mum and dad dont tell me if I'm great. Can you please????...!!!''.

It actually makes me sad that people only want to be a face or known to be known. Be yourself damn you and people will remember you .Trying to be something your not or trying to be something you think you should be to fit into a certain scene is pointless (Unless you go to art school in which case it seems invaluable!!)

Personally I'd rather be know as 'the guy who....' My name isnt important as my actions or indeed any talent I may or may not have. I have no intention of changing the world .I would especially hate it tocange it to revolve around me.. How dull would that be??


If you reach the end well done this isnt directed at anyone in particular. I think that if I hate you , you should probably know by now!! A packet of chocolate buttons is in the post for whoever gets this far!!
