Black Veil Brides!

Well, it has been my fortune to discover Goth band Black Veil Brides!
More accurately, that I've discovered a song by then that I'm rather in love with :')
I shall give you a link, and you shall go and listen!

And then they did listen :')

Photos!

Today, my dears, I was awakened at the crack of 8.00 to go have black and white photos taken, an occurrence most odd as I usually spend as much time trying to be BEHIND the camera (Not taking the photos, you understand, but literally just standing behind it, out of harms photos way)

Still, it did prove rather enjoyable, and gave me ample opportunity to show off my awesome, Robert Smith-esque(ish) shirt, which can only ever be a good thing right? 
Also, my AWESOME DOC MARTENS (link here) struck such a chord with the photographer
that she asked to keep me back and do a small shoot with lots of bootage! :') 

You know it was good.

Anyway, so depending on how they come out, I may decide to favour you with a couple of 
shots (They should be ready by next week-ish), but first!

Simple curiosity leads me to wonder whether you read this and imagine a girl or a guy writing it?

So, your question, as I haven't given one in a while (and you're all blatantly 

missing it ;)), shall be this:

Me: Girl or Guy?

Moderately artistic

As you may have seen from the title, I'm feeling moderately artistic today and so will deign to show you a sketch/edit I've been working on, you lucky people, you.

Both the sketch and the quote (as far as I know) are mine, so I hope you like!
Any comments are appreciated *coughhintcough* :P

So there you go! Tips are to be placed in this bucket *here*

On another note I know I've not had a rant for a while, but I've been rather caught up with *strum roll* guitar practice xD
Perhaps, if you're extra lucky and send me nice things, I shall upload a video for you when I've stopped sounding like a cat being faxed ;) and started playing something recognizable (Which, for your information, is likely to be the ol' Clocks, by Coldplay.)

So look forward to more inspired musing from the blog which you've blatantly added to your bookmarks...HAVEN'T YOU.

Until tomorrow then, my dears.

Echo Bazaar!

I shan't keep you long today, just for enough time to show you a new game I was shown on the internet, which I have to admit is actually rather amusing :')

'Tis called Echo Bazaar. Set in "Fallen London", the idea is to try make something of yourself. Using "actions", you take Opportunity Cards and, through them, get Storylets, with which you choose the path you take, building up "Shadowy", "Dangerous", "Watchful"  and "Persuasive" points as you complete (or fail) challenges.

You can also interact with Facebook friends :)

Anyway, I recommend you check it out, as I said, it's fairly enjoyable :D.

As I'm so kind, I'll even provide you with a link:  http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=130338406996028

Have fun!

Pledgalution

Right, 'tis my resolution to myself that I shall update more! Take note:

I, from Hot off the Blog, do now pledge to faithfully post new content on my blog every day, be it opinionated rant, shout-out to someone of note, or merely an amusing picture :')
This shall be binding by the internet, with the only exception being lack of internet connection.

Signed,
Hot off the Blog.

And I'll start off by bringing it to your attention that you can now tweet or share my blog on Facebook, and also follow it using your Facebook account! Enjoy my dears ;)

Horizon's Edge!

Hey my lovely people ;)

Just a quick note today to promote the awesome Edgecore band Horizon's Edge! (http://www.facebook.com/horizonsedgeuk)
They have a really great and unique sound and are trying to go global purely through word-of-mouth, so give 'em a listen and spread the word!
These guys are good, as you'll no doubt agree, being ones of such good taste :P
Anyway, I shan't say more about them, click that link (you know you can feel your mouse moving itself towards it already) and find out!

Plus, I'll love you forever if you do ;)

Guess who's back? ;)

*Blows dust off the "New Blog Post" button*

Well, dudes and dudettes, yes, you're right, it's ME, back from the (un)dead and reporting from Hot off the Blog!

Ooooh, and Happy New Year guys! Albeit about a month late :P

It's been a while, life went on and my dear, neglected blog got slowly forgotten, but a few months of creepily stalking facebook led me to the thing I promised myself I'd never sink to...Formspring. However, this indiscretion eventually led me to a friends blog, and then finally, amidst the "Chariot of Fire" themetune, back to my own (in slow-motion, obviously). Should have seen the joyful reunion, would've made a *insert something heartless* cry :').

Still... wish it hadn't been through Formspring though. Who can predict what boredom'll lead you to do, eh? Not that I'll sink low enough to link all you guys.

*Coughhttp://www.formspring.me/PoppysHideOpiumCough* Ahem, sorry, bit of a cold at the moment.

Sneaky self-promotion aside, my life's been pretty hectic with much music and studying and plenty of writing and pretending-to-study-whilst-going-on-facebook (better hope no one sees that one :P).

Also I've finally ended my procrastination and started learning the real guitar, though I suspect it'll be a while before I'm marked as the next Hendrix (Though obviously even he can't match up to the sheer skill of my air guitar :P). I mean guys, it's pretty sublime. If you don't believe me, just notice how many people disagree *Quickly blocks all people who've seen my air guitar from commenting*.

Anyway, just a short post today to let you all know I'm back in business, and to look out for your *obviously* favourite blogger :P.

More will come soon, so check out my other posts, and if you like what you see ;), be sure to comment and subscribe :D

Aaaaaand now, the moment you've all been looking forward to *drum roll* your question!

Just be warned...there's only one right answer for this :P

Missed me?
