The x factor is a reality drama full of karaoke singers. I have nothing against any of the contestants, but 9 times out of 10 none of them have even wrote any of their own music, they're all just singing covers. Yeah they all have decent voices, but so does that woman on karaoke across the road, she probably has more charisma too. So let's not pretend it's about the contestants OR talent. It's about the judges, who they manipulate you into voting for and all that drama that everyone bitches about every year (calling it a fix) but yet they still watch. Every time without fail. Even when they get a bit of talent, someone who plays guitar, sings quite well and writes their own music, they just end up singing a shitty cover as soon as they get held of.
Let's give a few examples of this pathetic tv show.
A girl called 'Mischa B' was probably going to win the thing last year, until a certain judge (the most drama obsessed idiot of them all, Tulisa) sneakily hinted on stage that Mischa is a bully. Suddenly, everyone hates her. I wonder why? because no one can think for themselves, it's not about talent, it's about what the judges want to happen. What they want you to think, you think, then you vote. They don't NEED the voting system.
A few years ago Matt Cardle won, the X factor wanted someone to win who seemed like the average guy, so he did win, what happened to him? he was dropped from his management team. And can we guess why? because they wanted to put their time into One Direction. Because One Direction didn't win the competition, but the record label knew that they would be more successful after the show, because they're good looking teenage boys. They were put together by Simon Cowell because of their looks (after being kicked out for not having good enough voices), then they where given songs wrote by other people and promoted with too much money for me to think about. Well done, talent...
I'm sure I could talk about this a lot more, but please, if you're going to watch it, at least stop saying "it's a joke" and complaining about how it's "all about the entertainment factor" cause we all know it's not about talent and never was. Or even better, stop watching shows like the X factor and go to a local gig, or just go to YouTube, and find an actual musician who really is trying to get somewhere.

Suicide Silence vs One Direction...
1D fans have officially become worse than Beliebers, telling Mitch Luckers daughter (a five year old girl) to kill herself because her Dad plays rock music as opposed to pop... just after he died at the age of 28...
Sorry for the rant but let's start at the top; music. Mitch write his own music, 1-0 to Mitch. Mitch worked to get where he is, he wasn't put together by Simon Cowell due to being good looking, 2-0 to

Mitch. Mitch earned fans through SS's music, where as 1D did covers on a karaoke contest called the 'X factor' and had millions of fans before they even recorded a song, not shallow at all that... P.S. Nothing against 1D as people, and their music isn't horrible, but remember they didn't write it, so they can't get credited for it. Nothing against all 1D fans either, just the completely fucking stupid ones who need either teaching about life or need a back hander. I also actually quite like Bieber, but most of his fans are equally as ignorant and pathetic as the One Direction fans that tell little girls to commit suicide...
Genuinely beginning to think that there is a connection between how nice you are as a person and what music you listen to...

HALLOWEEEN
Sooo it's the week of Halloween :') an amazing Holiday. It just feels amazing around Halloween, the movies and everything, I'm not too much into horror movies but I love Halloween movies (Not the movie 'halloween' with the rape scene and stuff, I hate that film :S) but stuff like nightmare before Christmas :D it's awesome. I'm still not sure what exactly I'm doing for Halloween but I've planned my outfit, Tim Burton inspired look, lacey black dress with a collar, I'm sewing on some buttons and wearing pale make up with black eyes and a black and white zombie kind of look :') looking forward to that. May just go to the cinema dressed up and watch Frankenweenie again. Also, I never want to grow up. I LOVE Christmas and Halloween cause I can completely be a kid, I don't want it to ever change. Although it has already of course changed from how it used to be but not as much as with most people.
Back Again
Haven't done a propper blog in months. So a lot has probably happened *hopefully* otherwise, awkward. Started writing my album, so extra extra stress and anxiety hoping it all goes ok :S I met Austin Carlile and fell in love with him. I went to a Manchester Youtube meet up called SDM and met some amazing subscribers and also Lukeisnotsexy and Bribry :') so there'll be a vlog about that soon :) Also going London again soon for UK Warped tour :D can't wait to go shopping there too.
So, that's all I can think of blahing about atm, will hopefully start using this properly again soon.
Also HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Update and Summer in the City
Been about a month since I made a post on here, actually been kinda busy.
I went for an archery lesson not long ago, wrote two songs to record soon, want to start recording MP3's more as well as videos, I'm concentrating more on my solo music cause I still can't find a band :S
The best thing that's happened this past month (probably the whole year) is that I managed to get a train to London over night for Summer In The City :D I went down with a subscriber who was SO fun, we met PJ Liguori, we both kind of knew him before we knew each other so he had curious eyes, haha, we met Dan Howell (hnnnnnnnnnnnnnng), Chris Kendall and Sam Pepper mainly. We met quite a few other people but I think they're the only ones I was already subscribed to. They were all awkward in one way or another and Sam P is equally as strange in person as I expected lmao, Dan looked slightly lost without Phil but he was still nice, I made a bit of a fool of myself in front of Chris so he probably thinks I'm annoying :') I met a few subscribers as well which is always lovely :D PJ was definitely the nicest (and best looking in my opinion) in real life.
I've been on Younow quite often recently, it's a really good website where you can live broadcast and earn subscribers :) I've been able to guest broadcast with two of my fave Youtubers, PJ and Jim Chapman :) they were both very nice and their viewers weren't hatey with me :'D
It's been another over-all good month! Thinking on positives :)

GAHD
Been too busy, I finish college in three days and still haven't done all the work :( so much effort and headaches. Haven't been on WoW or read any of my book in ages either :( been just doing too much work on top of 'normal' work at Starbucks.
Some strange guy came in Starbucks yesterday, he was very flamboyant and he just pushed to the front and didn't order he just stood there going "IT'S FULL OF FAKES THIS CITY ISN'T IT" or whatever, so my supervisor was like "Can you keep your voice down" and he was like "OOH WELL IF THAT'S YOUR ATTITUDE YOU'VE LOST A CUSTOMER YOU BITCH!" as if we've been dieing for customers... lol what on Earth was he.
