The Pretentious Ramblings of a Film Student — Week 1 (As One Door Closes…)
So I guess I blog now…
Don’t want to start off sounding like a downer but heres some context about why I even started doing this in the first place (or at least part of a reason.)
It very much feels like the end of an era, in a couple of days i’ll be off to University, I should feel excited or nervous, but I don’t. Its the weird limbo between the end of term and the start of the next one. My best pal is also leaving for uni too. Only he won’t be around like alot of my friends he is making that noble decision. To boldly go where most people have gone before. I don’t really know how to feel, because I know we will still be best pals and now that we will see each other still on holidays and day visits but even still it all doesnt seem quite real to me, im no longer a kid I have too be a grown up now and I don’t think I’m really very ready to be one yet. which is why I have decided to do something “productive” instead of wasting my free time watching YouTube video’s and hopelessly scrolling through Tinder, iv decinded im goin to blog. Even still blogging is hardly the most constructive use of people time is it? I mean the internet doesn’t need another teenaged white persons opinions but hey-ho, I guess I’ll do one anyway.
In away this blogging thing is just away to vent some of my ideas and thoughts. Maybe I can keep it up for a whole year? I’d like that to be something that I can actually maintain. At the same time of me starting this venture I am also attempting to get rid of my sexy Dad bod and return to my skinny and less muscular self. This will be achieved by walking up a big fuck off hill every morning until I can run up it. So far I can do 4 runs before my body waves the white flag of submission and I inevitably throw up.
Before I go any further I thought I’d at least give you some background info on myself, I have no idea if this will even be read by any one other than my mates and me Nan. Oh by the way if you reading this Nan I’ll come round and do your lawns when you back off holiday :)
- My name is Nathan
- I like Films… (like alot)
- I Really Like Films
- Im a Doctor Who Fanatic
- I spend an unhealthy amount of time in the pub.
- I dont understand how you win Tinder.
- I cheat at Wordscape, sometimes… its just if I can’t get the answer. Like I’ll Google it to save using up all the coins.
Yh thats the jist of it really, I hope I can entertain at least some of you with my rants and rambles. As I said before I hope I can look back at this a year from now and be happy that I have actually stuck with something longer than 5 minutes. Now that I have spewed my thoughts onto the screen I feel content and far more hopeful about going forward.
Its like they say. As one door closes another one opens… ( Sorry about that but I had to put something at least slightly pretencious in there.)
