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!

Last Thursday I was home sick. I did go to school, but I only lasted half of lesson one, then vomited. I did make it to a toilet, but that didn’t really make it any more pleasant. I’m guessing it was just a stomach bug, because I was fine the next day.
While I was in bed (all day) I called my dad and asked him to bring me home a Clive Barker book. He bought me ‘The Damnation Game’ and ‘A Brief History Of Time’ which I had been talking about earlier that week, mostly referring to a show by Ross Noble. I was wondering if it was really as hard to read as he made it sound. It isn’t.

Recently, we moved house. Or, moved into a house. We used to live in a two bedroom apartment. We now live in a two storey house. Pretty good going in my books.
As I need a drum kit, I have the largest bedroom, which is awesome. It’s in a bit of a shambles at the moment, but I’m slowly tidying it all. My favourite bit of it so far is the IKEA sofa bed.

Last Friday at school we got Tetanus and MMR injections. Although it gots us out of most of a lesson, everyone at school was terrified. Personally, I can’t see why. A stranger is going to come into school, ask you to take off your shirt in front of all of year 10, then proceed to inject you with a deadly virus. And in return we get to miss an hour with our form tutor. Sounds pretty sweet to me.
Another plus side of the injections was that we had basketball afterwards, and we got to sit out. It was just my form that had the injections that morning, so we got to sit out, but without the other people who are annoying. Hurrah!

I’ve been watching a lot of movies lately. I mean a lot. Since last Saturday I’ve seen:
Armageddon, Apocalypse Now, Resident Evil 1, Resident Evil 2: Apocalypse, Blood Monkey, Braindead, Cube, Cube 2: Hypercube, Cube Zero, Dawn of the Dead (Original), Dawn of the Dead (Remake) and Jaws.
I have more to watch. As it has also been extremely cold, I have been going through thousands of cups of tea and a fair amount of hot water bottles. They make me happy.
