sadly due to artist differences baptists youths first ever boy band decided it was best to sepearate from band member andrew curry due to alleged charges that prevent him from concentrating fully on his musical carear.
since the split andrew has formed a new band- baptist youths second ever boy band- but frankly its a amaturish venture- but does have some great choreography.


anyone else see it? its like they just got contact lenses- ok maybe not, possibly just the fact their brothers singing together etc





this is the jig saw i started and finished nearly completely by my self mark sara canning and sammy semi helped but there wernt half as commited as me!! and who says chrisitans cant have fun- jigsaws- the new goin out!

Hi, just to let my fans know what iv been up to ( ….i have fans now, 3 posts!! True one was from a family member and another was tryin to sell me Insurance from his site, but my demographics show im huge in carrick, and also in Latvia)

So got my first brief last week, its all bout me! Me me me!! All self portraiture until oct 27th- by then I need 6 drawings,6paintings,6mixed media(that’s abit of art talk) as well as a sketch book plus a load of research on artist while doing other classes like ceramics etc!! So contrary to rumours art college is no joke, am working like a trooper. Hardly leaving my room, just sleep, eat and art. Kinda like Castaway in my wee room and I’m tom hanks but without the beard ( that will prob b tried in 2nd or 3rd yr uni.) and ill mite be just as skinny as I have no desire to eat knowing Ill have to cook.( but I am eating f or the sake of mum&claire) Coincidentally theres a position free for a cook/maid open-apply within. Oh talking bout jobs, had a interview for Tescos, went well, id hire me – also had to a kind of practical 5-10mins, so had to unpack boxes?? Don’t know why, they just could have been short staffed , but handled that ok but when asked bout fashion designer(art student etc) I made a joke bout designing for George- which is Asda, not Tesco, but everything else went ok.


Sadly also this week Derek is missing presumed dead, except no one is saying dead, so hes missing presumed ‘had it’ if it is true this means that the hamster has outlived Derek , which is a surprise as the hamster should be dead ages ago ,most likely due to Derek. If you don’t know Dereks a cat,not some relative or a person.

the mother of all hats



just thought that I'd post this to show what I've made, made this for the a university project. Then we had to wear them when we went to a residential in Kilrea were we were doing team building things and canoeing etc. I got a large 'awwwww..' for my hat effort. but also got a large man-flu for my canoeing efforts.

well this was the 1st week of the great adventure, known as university (or college if its me - or tech if its my parents!) So i moved from the lovely whiles of sion mills(left isnt it pretty-alot nicer than carrickfergus) and travelled up a hour or so to mean mean streets of limavady!(right) for such a big place it all seems to close around!
so travelled up on tuesday and stayed in, what would be my house for the year, for the very first time...and spent a very lonley night all alone, as no else had moved in- well except for 3 latvians- who spent the night plotting to get me in latvian outside my door ( Latvia was the winner of the 2002 Eurovision Song Contest. The song, "I Wanna", was sung by the popular singer Marie N who also worked on the song's composition!!)

So as lectures didnt start till thursday (not so much lectures-it is art college?) didnt start till thursday so got to lie about all day in my room- 'in training' for student life. so went for a wee bit of a shop...(right) and if you look close enough you can see that I did buy apples......and 8 muffins- but a bag of apples.

so that was my first days of uni, oh when i actually did go to college they just made us fill out forms- going shoping was alot more entertaining so thats why there pictures of that on my blog.

testing, testing 1.......2......3.........4
