Rambles of Dinky - late at night...

It is the eve of doing something that could be drastic with to do with my appearance. I am not going to tell you what, but I hope it goes to plan! Or otherwise I’ll be wearing disguise ‘til it’s back to normality (well what is normal to me). Wish me luck!


I’ve sent off my readers’ letter to the magazine, haven’t even sent it to my tutor yet but still struggling with this article idea… so far on this course, I have learnt that I am glad I didn’t go ahead with doing a BA in Journalism. Thankfully fate stepped in and saved me from 3 years of struggle and discontentment! I love reading magazines and newspapers, but writing for them is a different subject. I don’t feel I have the knowledge/ right to write about something I’m not trained or taught about. I like my work to be perfect so much prefer to write about things that I actually love, have knowledge about which can be very limited in the world of magazines and newspapers. Stories, poems and more creative pieces are my forte. When I enrolled on the course, I decided to do the non-fiction first so then I'd have the fiction to look forward to and have the more difficult out of the way but it is taking me forever. There is a light at the end of the tunnel - just a shame it's a very long tunnel!


This past week, I’ve been so excited about Adam Lambert’s new music video since it was premiered on the 3rd February. The song is about the two sides of being human: meaning where you struggle to find the balance of the dark side or light side. Sometimes they can conflict with one another. Then again, the two sides can’t live without each other. I know for myself, people pay me compliments and I’ve been through some stuff in my time yet I find myself fighting against all of it. I often bring myself down by my demons, there’s a lyric that I love ‘…it’s heaven underneath my skin but it’s hell out here…‘ sometimes I feel the opposite of this. I hope I haven’t gone off track as I’m trying to explain my interpretation and how I feel myself. Do you get what I mean? Personally, I think Adam looks great too in the video. Love how well he plays the part of both light Adam and dark Adam, maybe that is to do with how he totally relates to him. I really can’t wait for the album to come out, Trespassing.
  (the album cover - someone has said it's like the Twilight (film) mysterious and dark like a vampire... what do you reckon?)
By the sounds of what I’ve heard, we’re going to have a great insight into who Adam is and it will be a fascinating journey to follow. Adam is definitely a true artist in his own right, following what lies in his heart and being true to himself. I just hope the UK is ready for him and his incredible voice! In every interview I have seen of him, he is always so charming, polite and honest. He appears to be humble and I truly hope he gets the success in the UK as he much deserves it. Maybe more than any other male artist of our time. Fingers crossed that he will go on tour later this year and I am certain I will be going to see him. I for one has definitely got Glambert Fever and I hope that you all do too or will do soon. Have a look at the link of his video and see what you think.


Anyway, the time now is 4:05am and I should be getting to bed. Been fun talking to you guys, don’t forget you can contact me via here, my Facebook or my Twitter. Take care and keep smiling peeps. J
