In My Generation

I was on the Internet and found this poem and i thought it was so amazing that i needed to find a way to share it with others. Its called 'In My Generation'-

"They read in the papers and hear on the air
Of stealing and killing and crime everywhere
They sigh and say as they notice the trend,
'This young generation, when will it end? '
But can they be sure that it's our fault alone,
That apart of the problem they should claim as their own?
Are they less guilty who place in our way,
Objects and subjects that lead us astray?
Too much hating, not enough love
Maybe we should give peace a little shove
Too much money and too much idle time
Too many movies of passion and crime
Too many books not fit to be read
Too much evil in what we hear said
Too many children encouraged to roam
Too many parents who never stay home
We don't make the movies or publish the books
We don't paint mean pictures of gangstas and crooks
Drugs and alcohol, they trouble our brain
They're done by older folk who are greedy for gain
Delinquent teenagers, oh how you condemn
The sins of a nation and you blame it on them
By the laws of the blameless, the savior made known~
Who shall cast the first stone?
For in so many cases
It's sad but it's true
The title DELINQUENT fits older folk too"

Once again i DO NOT own this, here is a link to the writers website

Finishing Touches

Now i have finished school i have decided to make a change and use my time off to do the things i have wanted to for a while.

I have started with only little changes, i finally have my dream catcher above my head whilst i sleep, and i made a huge change to the side of my wardrobe, filling it with quotes that i love, and pictures of the people i love.

 All of the books that i have been meaning to read since Christmas are piled up ready, and i have taken up exercise hoping to become a healthier person.

Lets hope i can keep the change up ;)

Exams

Uhhhh these past few weeks i have been revising so much i have hardly been on the Internet at all, so I'm sorry i haven't blogged but i figured i would fill you in.

I have taken my music exam which I'm pretty sure i haven't done amazing on, i mean what is an Irish lament, and what does that have to do with a Scottish Gaelic song, i don't know?

I have also taken my R.E (religious education) exam and i think i have done okay on that.

I have only taken those two so far but that does still leave 11 to revise for, although I'm gonna try to make sure i have a bit of time to do the things i enjoy, like my blog.

Blog Everyday in May

Well I know traditionally it's blog everyday in April, but I only just came up with this idea so May it is.
Everyday for the next month starting next week, I'm going to have a different question which I answer, so if there is anything that you want to know, post the question as a comment on this blog and I will make sure I answer it one day.

Best Day Of My Life

A while ago i did a post on role models and asked you who you look up to, well i think its important to tell you that on Thursday i met one of my role models.

Alex Day is an amazing musician who writes his own music and plays and sings his own songs, and who most importantly is all about the fans and is the least materialistic person i have ever met. On Thursday he held a small gathering in Coventry, which i went to even though its nowhere near my home. He signed my CD, and i got a picture with both him and his cousin Danny Hooper, and both of them, the creators of a card game called Sopio, signed some of my cards.

It was an amazing day and i think it shows how amazing it can be to meet a role model, and make sure you are prepared so you can have things to remember it by.

The group in Coventry-

Alex Day- Lady Godiva

I am part of something called the Nermie Army, a group of fans of the amazing Alex Day who are dedicated to watching his videos, and aim to get him into the charts.

His last album Forever Yours made it to number 4 in the UK charts, and our new project is his song Lady Godiva.

The song, which was released yesterday, currently sits at number 20, but at its best point yesterday was at number 14. A lot of people in the world are against are plan and feel that an unsigned artist shouldn't make it into the charts and that we cant do it again.

We want to show that Youtube is just as powerful as other parts of the media, and if you agree with our cause, listen to his song here:

If you like the song buy it and help us to show the world the power of the internet ;)
