The Jordi Shore.

I have an art assignment that I could be doing right now. I’m not doing it right now though. Instead I decided to create a reality show, it is called Jordi Shore (Trivia: I created that title by mixing my name Jordan with the title of the show Geordie Shore. It is pronounced the same. The more you know.)

 It will be about 6 people sharing a house inside one of those snow globes. Lots of wild parties happen.

Cast:

Paddington Bear: A young, eager and free spirit originating from Darkest Peru. This young go-getter is a fan of shapeless hats and jackets. He describes himself as ‘a kind bear that will most likely remind you of your grandparents.’

Wee Georgie Wood: An actor, comedian, musician and writer who sadly passed away in the 1970s is looking for another shot in the T.V industry. When fully grown he reached 4 ft 9, when not fully grown he was smaller. He is good in lots of ways.

Herman the German: Wieghing an astonishing 17 pounds and owned by Hans Wagner. A healthy rabbit, he eats right and takes a vitamin every day. He also has a really really cute wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herman_(rabbit) I love him. Lots.

(Trivia: I was going to write three more cast members but I can’t be bothered because I just realised this is a waste of time. The more you know)

 Channel Ten, if you are reading this: Thank you for considering my show and I understand that you have an already busy schedule and that my program isn’t really what you are looking for right now. I shall try again at a later date. Thank you for your time.

Jean-Luc, I’m sorry. Jean-Luc, we are going to make a wonderful team!

hello. I was watching the simpsons, and it stopped. And then another show came on, so I thought, “hey, I don’t have anywhere to go. I might as well just give this show a chance.” So far, it sucks. It’s called Star Trek: The Next Generation, and is like a domestic drama about a group of unlikely people who work together, in a spaceship or something. It sucks.

 The episode started with like two glittery aliens. But I wasn’t really listening to what they were saying, so I can’t really make fun of them. Except I will, because they were glittery. Hah. Stupid aliens.

 And then a bunch of stars come up, and a narration happens. It sucks. Then another star comes up, it’s Xaviar from X-Men, except he can walk, and he’s a butthole. His a captain, named Jean-Luc. The first thing I heard him shout was, “Thats it! I’m going to my room!” And this girl, who has breasts and the biggest V-neck colar of the entire crew! She follows Jean-Luc to his ‘room’ where i think he was doing paper work or writing short stories or something. And she told him he should go on a vacation and he said no, and she said he really should and he said his too busy and she said he deserves to have a holiday and he said please. Leave. And then she says that her mother is gonna be staying with them for a little while. Which is weird.  And his like “NOOOO!” and goes on vacation then he meets a prostitute. This shows sucks.

 So do the ads for it. If I knew how to, I would totally change this channel or turn the TV off. Ohwell. 

Sorry. Bye.

A video I made.

Hello.

It’s kind of holidays, kind of… We got our test results back a week before school ended, sooo we got off a week early. So it was kind of like holidays, but wasn’t.. I felt guilty all week because there was lots of people having to go to school, while I got to be having a luxurious holiday, where I got to feel guilty. Win-win i guess. I don’t know what I’m talking about! I’m just bored! I thought I’d write about my sort of holiday so far.

 On Monday, I just had a sort of fun, sort of quiet weekend, I think I went shopping with some people I know… I was surprisingly excitted for my first day of the holidays, I could do whatever I wanted! I could stay up all Sunday night and sleep in on Monday until the afternoon, and just be lazy. Instead, I went to school…

 I went to school for two reasons, I needed to see a teacher about a computer, and I needed to see a teacher about doing long distance education next year. I didn’t wear school uniform, and that made me feel dorky! It went wel, the lady I had to see about long distance education was busy so I didn’t get to see her, but that was okay, I got to take a new computer home. I must of looked sooo silly walking of the school with a huge computer, wearing a hood! The funny thing is I walked passed all of the school deputy’s and they didn’t say a thing! They either trust me lots (even though they obvioussly don’t know who I am) or they obviously don’t care about people stealing all their stuff and breaking the rules that they try soooo hard to enforce.. Or it might mean I’m invisable. That would be cool. Maybe.

 I literally spent all of  Monday night and Tuesday playing with the mac, which is rediculous, but sooo fun! I just experimented with final cut, and I made a little music video. On Wednesday I was asked to help make a music video for a heaps talented girl at my school who is really good at piano, I forgot her name :o which is embarising because I have a feeling she’s going to be famous one day, and I’ll be the only fool on the planet who has forgotten her name. ANYWAY, we went to a church and I was with some really good friends, two who I have spent heaps of time with making movies with the past two years, the three of us are the ones who stay from the start to the end of each project, i think thats just because we are the most interested, and we mostly have the best fun! Anywho they showed up like an hour early and by the time I got there, they were soooo bored!! But one told me a funny story of how he had to call the teacher, while the teacher was home! at 10 o’clock at night! And the teacher’s wife answered the phone! haha I found it funny at least. The teacher then showed up with a bunch of younger kids, who I think are our replacements! And there was two older girls who I hadn’t seen before, but they disapeared after a while. We all went off to film inside the church, but I had just borrowed a new camera from the school so I thought I’d just film some silly stuff. I was actually pretty useless that day, just walking around the church trying not to say swears. After that I had to walk to the school again! To get a charger for the camera lol. It was kinda sad because it is the last little movie project i’ll work on with those two guys, and we hardly did anything that day! ohwell, we had loads of fun, well I did at least! I’ve had fun over the last two years and have done so much work, so that was kind of a handing down of the torch day. I’m still gonna make little movies by myself, and I know one of my friends will do arty stuff next year, so life won’t be too different.

 On Thursday I had to go to school again to sort out my long distance education stuff, very boring but had to be done. I think it all got sorted and I’ll get to do it next year, which is brilliant!

 On Friday I watched all three episodes of This Is England 88, which I’ll talk about in another post, because that is huge news for me!

 And today, I must be sick of holidays (although i’ve been at school for a lot of it!) because i’m writing extremely pointless and probably uninteresting stuff on Tumblr at 6 o clock in the afternoon. I was invited to a party, but he lives in Lawson, which is a long way away, and to tell the truth, i’m actually pretty happy just writing on Tumblr about pointless and uninteresting stuff right now.

I don’t know..

Excitted :D

Dec 9

Its over!!!

 Hello. I’ve had that “Have I ever told you you’re my hero - you’re the wind beneath my wings” song stuck in my head today. It sucks. I don’t even have wings, but if I did it would be cool I guess.

 I got my test results today, woo! And my report too. I didn’t do to well… Although I got in the top ten for the school in a couple of subjects. I mostly got ban fives which is super disapointing because I actually tried really really hard. But its over, and apparent that this test goes towards nothing, so I’m not bothered. My parents seem super happy with my report comments, so that makes me super happy. My PE report was an improvment, apparently i actually did classwork this semester.

 My history teacher said I was a renaissance man, which is silly! I liked that he said that though, I think its because I’ve done quite a few extra curicular activities, which I’m secretly no good at!! He’s comment was totally the nicest, wishing me well in life and stuff :D Year ten is over, I get to wear a new shirt next year, I hope!

 Umm, my formal was the other night, I enjoyed it.

 I’m in a magazine! And I’m gonna be in couple more later this month!! That made me happy, I’m really excitted to show my Grandma when she comes to visit this Christmas. This particular article on me has hugging in it, which is unique, especially in written media. Its got a nice and gigantic photo of me and my friends, and a nice famous looking lady putting her cold hand on my back. I look like I’ve never seen a camera before in my photo. Actually I’m coming to the realisation that I always look and sound terribly terrified, mostly because thats how photos and recordings have portrayed me. It was sort of funny seeing stuff I had said outload written in a magazine, its actually all quite silly. I change the subject with almost every sentance and seem super duper excitted for no reason :/ I think their is two more magazines with me in it this month, one will be an article on us, with quotes! I think that magazine is called ‘Side By Side’, it may already be out, but I’m not sure. The other article will be on a film festival in Dungog, and will be a few pages. It has random quotes from us, but I have a feeling they will edit what we said, because we were being silly and rude in it!! It was very fun though. The magazine that I got today is just an interview with me, which is rediculous. I think the magazine is called ‘fresh’ or ‘thresh’ or ‘thrash’ or ‘thrasher’ or something similar. Not sure.

 I’m getting a mac computer with all the adobe programs on Monday, which is handy :D I’ve got a few movie projects lined up this holidays. They are very small, like a music video for a local band and sporting videos… These are for people and I’m getting paid!! Which is kinda crazy, I’ll do my best to make them happy with the things I’m making for them. I’ve also got a bit of random footage I can finally edit now I’ll have both Final Cut and Premier in my home, instead of having to use the school computers to edit movies. I’m going to be filming more this holidays, just so I can experiment with editing. I’m actually kinda sad that most of my year has been spent in front of a computer editing. No thats a lie, I’m not sad. I had more fun this year than ever and it was because of that!

Good day.

 For like two weeks I think its been, I keep thinking I’m about to get a cold. But i’ve been to busy for a cold! So Instead I’ve been avoiding it, and just holding it in. Then yesterday I decided I would stop studying until the school holidays, so I’d get a break. So sure enough this morning I woke up really really really early with like a proper cold, I felt all gunky and filled up but empty at the same time, and my nose was running and my forehead was like heating up! So I went back to sleep until like 6:30 and was still sick and decided not to go to school today.

 I’m wearing a shirt at the moment that has a monkey on its front, but it’s wearing sun glasses and a hat and a really nice shirt. It actually makes me kinda sad because I’m afraid the monkey might have been embarassed by wearing those silly clothes. But what I think the creators of the shirt have done is photoshoped the monkeys head onto a humans body, so it looks like the monkey is wearing human clothes, but isn’t. So I’m really glad the monkeys feelings didn’t get hurt. I like this T-Shirt lots.

 In the shower today I tried a new shampoo and it was brilliant. It made my hair super soft and that made me happy. Also I kinda gave myself a mo-hawk with the conditioner, this was the first time I have done this and it looked really silly because my hair is pretty long.

 Our chirstmas tree is up, so today while I was alone I covered it with penguins and star wars decorations. It looks heaps super, I also added my R2D2 and C3PO action figures to the little nativity scene my mum has put above the fire place. I mostly put them there to keep the Chesire Cat stuffed toy I put there the other day company. I don’t think anyone will notice, except for me. So it’s sort of like a little secret that only I know about :D

 I tried on my suit for the school formal tomorrow, I like it lots. It’s very fancy looking and fits me really well. I’m still deciding what I will do with my hair, but I’m thinking I might tease it.

 I watched The Doctor Who episodes Boom Town and The Christmas Invasion, and fell asleep during the latter. Still they are really good episodes and I hadn’t seen either in like 3 years. I watched it on the big TV in our Lounge Room and it blew my mind heaps. About halfway through the opening titles of the first episode, my dog came and laid on my feet. Then about 10 minutes later my cat came and had a sleep on my legs. I was half expecting for some of the fish from our backyard pond to come out and lay on me! I’m glad they didn’t, because they would have been wet and that would have been pretty bad for my cold, I guess. Boom Town was a really really clever episode and it will probably be the one that I show people when I want to get them hooked to Doctor Who. It’s very funny but very dark at the same time. I thought it was silly in a good way when the Tardis Team were chasing the badguy but it got really super dark all of a sudden when they caught her and also Mickey and Rose were having an argument. I thought the Doctor was very clever when he was dealing with the monster in the diner, but now that I think on it, I must have fell asleep because I can’t remember how it ended.. Guess I get to watch it again sometime in the future!! :D :D The Christmas Invasion is a good episode too, I love Christmas so much!! And Doctor Who Christmas episodes are always sooo amazing!

 I have had that beatles song stuck in my head pretty much all day! ‘In the town where I was born, lived a man who sailed to sea and he told us of his life in the land of submarines. etc etc’ I think it may be a sympton of my cold because i haven’t heard this song since I was very very little.

 I went on webcam with a my Canadian friend for a few hours, I am currently reading her Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Secrets, and i’m almost finished. I already read her the first one a while ago, and she’s really been enjoying the stories I think. I hope! Normally I do little voices for all the characters, they basically sound the same, I suck at voices. Buuut today I kept losing my voice sooo i couldn’t really do the voices. She kept saying “go have a sleep!” that made me happy.

 My dog kept following me around everywhere all day, and my cat kept following him everywhere!! But I didn’t mind because I love them and they are cute.

 I cleaned my room today and i’m really proud of that. Because it was a mess and my drums were disemsembled because I’ve been to busy to play and they take up heaps of space. So I set them back up and played them for a long time, but then I heard all the neighbourhood dogs barking and people yelling in my street! I felt so stupid!! I ended up reading a heap of story books from my childhood too, gosh there are some funny ones! Like Bernard Was A Bikey, that one use to be my favourite. I also found a subscription to a magazine I had signed ages ago, but forgot to send off! It sort of looked half eaten and all gross, so I probably can’t send it away now. But it’d be really funny if I did and they looked at it and thought they had timetraveled to the past or something! I dunno what I’m talking about. I’m tired… and sick.

 But mostly today I was alone and it felt weird because I haven’t been completely alone in so long! It felt really nice but I’m looking forward to being around people again. I dunno why I uploaded this, just felt like writing… Maybe being alone has driven me crazy :/ maybe. Hope not!!

awwwwwwww. This amazes me soo much, because the last time he visited that venue, that song was just an idea inside his head, if that. And then 20 years later when he plays there, they are the ones who sing it back to him. Singing him words that HE WROTE. Very inspirational, his words mean so much to THAT MANY PEOPLE!!! Kind of goes to show that everyone has potential. I think.
