Online Integrity
Hola, So I know you live for my blogs and since I haven’t contributed one in a while I thought I’d go right ahead and fill you in on the happenings of my life. You are excited, don’t pretend you’re not. Now, this is where we have a dilemma, to some extent I’m really very open on the internet but I’ve started thinking about how this effects my actual real...
Telly, Lost Jobs and Accidental Exposure.
Hello blog! It’s been a funny old week. After feeling entirely manic for days on end I popped up to London for a job interview, (I did not get the job. I’ll spare you the details, I’m not giving another stupid website more of my time/exposure) and I visited Noush. Things have passed in a bit of a strange blur. Time has been behaving differently, and my mind is going from racing...

Celebrity Masterchef
I have a new obsession, it’s called Celebrity Masterchef and it’s not very good. If you don’t know the format, basically the BBC drags a few D-lister TV whores out of the dole queue and shoves them in a kitchen before forcing them to cook in front of cameras. The celebrities are desperate for more air time, the food is rubbish and the producers are seemingly using the program as...
Inception - a bad review.
So! Sorry if your lovely tumblr dashboard is already filled with billions of Inception references/photos/quotes/spoilers/gifs etc but I felt I needed to add to the discussion. I went with the legendary Lady Amy Face, Curtis and Alex to see the movie tonight and I have to say, it was fantastic. Very visually dynamic, gripping, engaging and Hollywood summer blockbuster to the core, yet also...
Learning Japanese (The Maddox Way)
It would appear that I’ve taken up learning Japanese again. It’s only my 8 millionth attempt and at the risk of sounding like a massive Weeaboo I just want to be prepared for the day I eventually go to Japan and immerse myself into the culture. I’ve tried podcasts and various online resources before in an attempt to get at least a basic grasp of the language but to no avail....

The STA World Traveller Internship
The STA World Traveller Internship
This whole experience has been mad, really really mad and it’s taught me three things; 1) Never underestimate the power of Social Media 2) Never underestimate yourself and your own abilities 3) Never underestimate the likelihood of your gadgets failing you when you need them most. For those of you that have no idea what I’m talking about, (where have you...

"Why there is nothing natural about homophobia".
Well well well, today has been a victorious day for the liberal twitter user. Just in case you missed the shit storm that happened earlier, I’ll fill you in. Basically a Daily Mail journalist called Jan Moir wrote a bile ridden column which featured her musings thoughts erm… belches on the death of ex boyzone singer and general 90s heartthrob Stephen Gately. Now generally I don’t...
Holy Blog!
I recently realised I was missing something from my life. The delicious catharsis of sitting down and rambling into a blog so it brings me great pleasure to bring it back in big style. I love tumblr as a platform I really do but what irritates me is the constant recycling of images, content, this, that, the other. Nothing is ever created here it seems, that sort of pisses me off. I don’t...
