...Another excuse

Hi There!

I’m Phil. I’m 22, and I’m a supposed Journalism student at Sunderland University. It’s great!

Now, down to the meat and potatoes. I’ve spent weeks trying to come up with a decent topic I can write about regularly without getting bored of it. I get bored a lot. I feel sorry for my lecturers sometimes. It must be like trying to teach a dog to sit when all the dog wants to do is chew something. There I’ll be, sitting like the best of ‘em but then all of a sudden a brightly coloured ball bounces into sight and I’m off. Only in my case it’s very rarely an actual ball. It’s been Djing, working bars, and recently painting. I’ve been at University for FOUR BLOODY YEARS!

So we’ve deduced I’m a 22 year old dog who likes colouring in! So that’s my topic. Everything I do instead of what I’m supposed to. My procrastinations and deviations.

My most recent obsession has been design. I’ll spend hours on Photoshop and Indesign, just teaching myself things. I spent a stupid amount of money on airbrushes to make t-shirts and canvases, and the landlord’s definitely keeping his bond, along with some pretty good stencils on his walls.

I’ll also be doing a bit on Music, Film and TV. Hey, let’s just generalise and call it a popular culture blog.

I keep all my design stuff here

And if like me you spend most of the day on Facebook
