Wednesday:
i went to Dundee for Dundee uni open day but to be honest i already knew what course i wanna do, and dundee is my first choice for uni, i really just went to talk about modules. Plus i love the city. Yes the streets are a bit dirty, the people are a bit edgy and the whole place reeks of tabacco but i still love it for some strange reason![]()
anyways i went and found some lady to talk about modules but she wasnt very helpful which peed me off big style
so i went down to the shops with my sister again. as i raided h&m for some hoodies i thought to myself that dundee really is the place for me to study.theres something that excites me everytime i step intothe city, but at the same time, something which calms me down and is quite soothing. people say "why not go to edinburgh uni?" but i dont want to,i went to edinburgh and as soon as i stepped on the campus i hated it. sure their courses are great and the uni is one of the top in scotland but whats the point of me going if i wont be happy. the place feels like a concrete jungle for petes sake!
in the end i picked a black hoody."eggh thats so plain! why are u getting that?" my sister screeched at me. WHY BLOODY NOT EH?!
sure it might not seem right but its what seems right to me.
hoody and uni.
on wednesday i also went to get some coffee with my sister at this coffee bar where this guy i know, gary, works. Gary is the lead singer/bassist of this band that im friendly with. Even though i dont know gary that well, we seem to get on fairly good. hes a cool guy who seems to have his head scread on right, my kind of person
he's one of those guys that seems quite sincere in everything he does and not up himself like a lot of blokes i know. i do empathise for him though as he is quite a strapping young lad ( floppy brunette hair, tall and slim build) and girls who meet him just seem to fuss over his appearance rather than his musical talents.i see gary as he is- gary. the skinny jeans and hair style is just an additional part. i actually cant believe how shallow people can be at times.girls that go to gigs to check out the totty on stage just sicken me. its about the music talent not the "talent".
garys band has received a fair amount of attention from the ladies( some of which i think they have enjoyed haha
). dont get me wrong,all of the members are all fairly easy on the eye as the standards go but i like them because they're pretty ace guys and play good music, not because they have nice haircuts,tattoos and skinny jeans. it seems any average looking young male can instantly boost his sex appeal just by straightning his hair and pulling some skinny jeans. its sad! anyways as gart made coffees behind the counter i thought that girls must come in all the time just to get a glimpse of the poor boy. greg brought our coffees over with a smile and a "what are u doing in dundee?" question for me. "dundee uni open day!" i say holding up a prospectus (though it was really an abertay uni one but im sure he understood the gesture haha. )
after our coffees,gary saluted me a goodbye,the same salute he gave me when i first came in .my sister and i went back onto the highstreet. we walked some of the streets that paul had walked me through ,which brought back some memories but i realised my passion for city life will never fade,even if Paul does. speaking of paul and gary,im seeing them and the rest of the band play on wednesday night at the Westie. i cant wait. going up with a friend from school.shes a lil indie cindy for my liking but seems alright to hang about with for a night. although she did turn around to me the other day saying she thought gary was very hot.
(dear god!not again). the band are playing with a fairly well known band.and apparently gary cannot wait! i must make sure not to miss this gig!
