Safe and Sound

Oliver and I are slightly in love with Taylor Swift, so when it was first announced that she was writing a song for the Hunger Games, we were just a little excited. But then we heard it and we weren't really sure. But I have to say it has grown on me, and I am absolutely in love with the video. So when the weather turned all atmospheric and grey yesterday, we thought it would be fun to shoot a quick video of our own. We shot it in, like, 20 minutes and Oliver put it together in about 10, so excuse the quality etc. but I am quite happy with it :) I wouldn't ever post it on youtube or anything like that, but I thought you guys might like to see it!


As well as being a fun little project, I thought it was also cool as it allowed you guys to have an interesting tour of my garden! It is kind of crazy, half field and half wood, but it was a really good location actually :) I did manage to get stung by stinging nettles all over one foot, but that's the price you've got to pay for art... :P

Oliver and I have never made a movie like this before (except my vlog, if that counts) but I'd quite like to do another :)

And yes, I am aware that this is the second day that I haven't done a devotional, I just felt that I should do a 'lighter' post today!

Some new pictures of The Band :)







As I have had to do unbelievably boring really important revision this week for my law exam next Wednesday, I'm afraid posting has been a little sparse to say the least. But I thought I'd share some of my photographs of the gig last weekend :) One, because I am ridiculously proud of them :P And two, because I wanted an excuse to give you my real news...

I joined flickr!

Ok, so it is nowhere near as exciting for you guys as it is for me, and I only have about 6 pictures on there, but just you wait.. :P Add me as a contact: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sayholt/

Thanks,

Say :)

Reintroducing The Band :)

Almost every weekend I support Oliver and my friends' band (I introduced them here, before I really knew anything about blogging) at various pubs around the country and this weekend was no different. The pub had a really awesome music 'barn' with music posters strewn over every wall and a drum kit attached to the rafters :)

I heard The Band's original song 'High Heels' for the first time and I was really impressed :) Even though it had been a bit over-hyped, it was really good :) My favourite bit was the breakdown in the middle, but you won't understand because you haven't heard it. If ever they get round to recording it, I'll put it on here so you guys can hear it to!
















Over and out,

It's been too long :P

I haven't blogged since Saturday :O My internet is temperamental :( Instead of blogging I have been doing cool things like...

Playing on MacBooks in the iPod shop:

(That's me as a chipmunk)

And playing on guitars worth a LOT more money than we have :P

Oliver really liked this Taylor guitar, I mean it's only just over £1,300 :P When we have lots of money and amazing jobs and win the lottery, we will go and buy a Taylor each, one in koa wood, just like Taylor Swift's.

Other than that we had a grape fight where Oliver ended up smacking his head on the fridge and I have worked for an almost illegally low sum of money- though everyone who works there is nice and I enjoy it :) The shop itself is a bit of a joke because the stuff they give us to sell is so tacky, in fact we have a new bra range designed by Katie Price, doesn't that say enough?

I have been playing with photoshop again, though this one was pretty quick, just over layering a starry sky on to a picture of Oliver- he just randomly climbed on top of a garage on this photoshoot and I snapped his picture :D


Catch y'all later,
