Oh yeah, it feels good to be 16. I’m all old, manly and cool. Well, old and manly. Well, old. But the point remains, I’m 16 and it rocks. I’m also sick and can hardly speak, but I comfort myself with the knowledge that I’m now one of those guys that I used to look up to and say “Wow, I wanna be like him! Older and responsible. He has HIS OWN fish and a phone!”.
Speaking about things that are mine, I have the coolest birthday pressie ever. My new Wacom Bamboo pressure-sensitive tablet is amazing. The cartoon above was drawn by me, on Photoshop! It’s so freaking cool! I haven’t used a mouse since. Buy one!

Yesterday I lost something very important to me – my hat. I was busing to Ethan’s house with Hannah from across the road, and the buses were hot. Naturally I took off my hat and put it next to me. At our stop we stood up and got off. It took me a while to realise, so the bus was long gone by then. I don’t even know which bus it was, the 11 or the 58. If anyone manages somehow to recover it, please let me know. My ears are cold.

Normally when Ethan and I hang out, it’s Ethan and me. Just us, no other friends to speak of really. We eat biscuits, watch movies, play games (normally computer-based but ‘Catch’ happens every now and then) and generally have a lot of lazy fun. But a couple of weeks ago, Ethan and I discovered that there are cool people in Hall Green. On my road. Insanity!
Ethan and I met 4 awesome people that live in Hall Green (Hannah, Rosien, Liah and Kieran)! We thought Hall Green was for uber-posh suburban white parents with two kids, a dog and a well tended back garden. We’d just never met the kids in this image.
They’re all in year 11 (or were, today’s their last day) except Kieran who’s in year 9.
They go to a youth club held in a church – of which Ethan and I were skeptical – but apparently you don’t have to believe to get in. It does however have a 75p entry fee (so God can get himself an ice-cream). There are more cool people there, and most live close to, or on my road. Awesomeness.
Hoorah for friendliness!

I am now officially 15 years old. Hurrah! Prezzies have involved vouchers, a digital camera, a posh t-shirt, a trip to NZ and NZ spending money. Oh yeah and chocolate. Chocolate is always good.
With the digital camera (purchased in Dubai on the way to New Zealand) I have been taking millions of photos. Quite a lot of these have been on my Nana, who hates having her photo taken (With good reason too. She’s the most hilariously unphotogenic person I’ve ever seen!). I am now called ‘Evil Child’.
With the spending money I have been buying things for people (I count as people right?). I’ve bought Ethan a necklace, Mum’s Christmas prezzie, 14 badges and an iron-on patch for my jacket, and various other stuffedness.
With the trip to New Zealand, I got bored with it 16 hours through.

I really do. I really like badges. I’m not sure what it is. Whether it’s the yummy feel of a new badge, the ability to express yourself without having to talk to people, the fact that rocker chicks really love them (Oh yeah! Yeah they do) or that I’m just naturally attracted to smooth shiny things. Who knows?
