Portal 2 + Video

My pick for the best gaming console would be the ps3, You can almost do everything on there as on the PC.  Check out my music video for the theme of one of the best Ps3 games ever, Portal 2.

I cant beleive Weatley is evil! There seems to be a dark theme running behind every genius game. Mind you, Little big planet is all about positive thinking and junk food.

Dont worry, be happy

If you're depressed or simply want to have a good day here are some things to snap you out of that mood:

• Start the day off by waking up to something that makes you happy, can be putting on your favourite scarf, setting your alarm clock to play your favourite song (Some iPods have this setting)
• Give someone a hug, whether it be your Pet dog, Mum, Dad or your Teddy bear.
• Suround your self with positive people, not 'friends' who make you feel like dirt.
• Be your own best friend - You have to love youself before anyone can love you.
• Help other people -  Make everyone around you feel good and you will to, you'll have a purpose and you'll feel great!
• Express youself - Instead of keeping your feelings bottled up, do something creative and put them to use. Draw a picture that means something to you or make a gift to thank those that have helped you.
• Get some fresh air - It's a fact that it clears your head and makes it easier to sort out your mind palace, go for a walk or play your favourite sport. getting active also releives stress.

The little blossom tree

Hey guys, I found a story I wrote ages ago I thought you might enjoy, dont forget to comment! :)

Once upon a time in a beautiful botanic garden, there lived a humble blossom tree. His job was to feed the birds, they never visited him, but they flew to the garden only in summer to collect the fruit. ‘Toby the fruit tree, they called him, would grow. He was happy to be part of such an honourable job, but he was so lonely. The Flowers below would always snap angrily at Toby when he would accidently drop all his leaves on top of them in autumn. In winter, the flowers even refused to look at him. “What kind of a tree has no leaves?” Spat the flowers, “He’s so ugly, I’m glad we don’t drop our petals and sit bare all winter, ugh! The thought of such a thing!”  They made Toby feel sad, lonely and unwanted.

In Spring Toby grew beautiful blossoms and the flowers treated him nicer than usual. Though the flowers agreed it was alright to look at him, they did not compliment him in any way. Toby was glad he fitted in more in the springtime, but still he had no friends to show his blossoms to.

In summer Toby’s blossoms developed into fruit and all the birds flocked in once again to collect their portion, as they did every year.  This time when the birds came, Toby was crying. No one seemed to care why the strange blossom tree was crying, not even the birds. “What is that awful sound?” They would say, as they continued to pick the fruit.

Except one little sparrow was not as nonchalant as the others, he perched himself on one of Toby’s branches and asked “Fruit tree! Why are you crying?”

Toby was quite surprised why a sparrow cared about why he was crying, he sniffed “No one ever talks to me, I have no friends, the sparrows and the other birds don’t even know I’m a blossom tree. 

“You’re a blossom tree?!” Exclaimed the sparrow, curiously and wide-eyed.

“Yes, I’m not a fruit tree like they say, they just assumed I was without asking. Just once I wish everyone could see my beautiful blossoms in spring.” Said Toby.

“And your name is…?” Asked the Sparrow.

Toby stopped for a second, no one had ever asked for his name, he was so happy he almost forgot to answer the little bird. “My name is Toby, what’s yours?”

“My name’ said the sparrow ‘ Is Timothy, my mission is to find you some new friends. I promise you, Toby, we will come back in the spring to visit you.” At that, Timothy flew off, the others birds following behind.

Timothy was very caring of the blossom tree, so each month he would fly back to the garden to say hello to Toby, he did not care about him dropping his leaves and sitting bare in winter, Timothy was so appreciative and kind hearted that he didn’t mind.

That spring he kept his promise and brought all the birds back to the garden to look at Toby’s beautiful blossoms.  

“My oh my! How gorgeous! These blossoms are beautiful!” Said one of the birds who had never looked once at Toby until now. “The perfect assemble for my nest! Do you mind if I take one or two little blossom tree?”

So happy he was being called a blossom tree, he allowed all the birds to take a blossom or two each. He thought some birds were taking more than one or two but he didn’t mind too much, But when the birds left there was not a single blossom in sight. Toby asked Timothy why he didn’t take one.

“Why should I take anything away from you? You have already given me so much, which is why I’ll be searching for my food in the bushed, vines and the shrubs for summer, so as to let you keep your fruit.

Toby was so grateful. But the other birds weren’t so kind, they took advantage of the fact they knew a tree whom they could take food from without asking.

The birds rested for all of the end of spring and summer until they knew it was the time Toby bore fruit.   They flocked into the garden. But wait, they stopped, ‘Where is the fruit?’ They all thought. Toby knew.

The birds had taken all his blossoms, so how were they expecting him to bare fruit? Toby laughed “You are not surely not my friends, although Timothy is.” Timothy flew down from the skies carrying berries and all kind of fruit. The birds sat on Toby’s branches speechless.

They watched as timothy sat under the cool shade of the blossom tree, laughing and feasting beside his new true friend.

The End

The subject of writing songs

I was looking through my music on media player and it didn't take me long to realise that every single song was about a person or love.


The only songs that wern't were techno songs or pre-installed classicals.

Why do you think these songs are so popular??
Is it because most people can relate? It's the subject that moves us the most?
Or maybe they all just have great tunes.

There are some great songs out there not about that same subject but I have to admit it's getting harder to find a song thats not about the club or getting wasted.

Here's some tip that I can think of to write a song that not about love:

• Think about something that makes you happy. Could be Dancing, singing, going for a drive etc.
• Make a list of things you like about it
• Write out the lyrics first, You could try finding a fun song you like and use the same ryming pattern.  For example, the chorus in Fireworks - Katy Perry Rymes every first two lines.

"Cause baby you're a firework

Come on, show 'em what you're worth

Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh"

As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby, you're a firework

Come on, let your colours burst"

Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh"

You're gonna leave 'em all in "awe, awe, awe"

The words dont need to ryme perfectly, if it sound right to you then it'll do.

• Make sure it makes sense to you
• Don't over ryme, it'll sound corny... Trust me i've made that mistake before.
• Find some chords that you like together and make up a side tune to match.

It can be anything you put your mind to. Owl City wrote a song about a Hot air balloon and Garry Allan was sick of all the songs about rain so he wrote his own song about it.

Some songs for inspiration:

Do your best!

Taking Sides

Thats just how it is when choosing your favourite music artist or favourite sports team, if your friend likes that same one, your officially on his side. Good thing?

 So what if your best friend likes kimbra better than Gotye and Your other best friend likes Gotye better?
 They want you to choose, who's side are you on?

You either like them both equally or dump them both all together.

Well now you seem like a psycho when you choose Justin beiber when your best friend hates him! Turns out you dont have everything in common when it comes to boy groups.

Well if he or she is your friend most likely theyll tease you about it, no reason for them to dislike you.

Even if its the guy you like, Im sure we all know how it goes "Youre different" So maybe, theyll like someone who doesnt agree with everything he says.

I used to have two friends at primary school who were trying to get me to choose a favourite best friend, to me thats stupid. I told them theyre both my friends and they stormed off, so maybe they wernt my friends after all???

Whats your veiw on the subject? Have you had any troubles with taking sides?

• Don't pressure your friend into liking the same things you do just because you think it's awesome.
• Never ever ask him or her to choose their better friend.
• Love your friend for who they are and don't judge them on how many things you have in common.
• Don't agree with everything someone says and lie about your interest just he or she likes you.
