Oh, and I wonder why I took a photograph of this. Maybe it has something to do with a musician I like worship?
The only club I'd ever consider going to.
"Draw me like one of your french girls"
Seeing as I've been on a Quadrophenia binge for the past two months, this was heaven.
Finally the Easter holidays have arrived. Last term at college seemed sooooo soooo long, I was starting to think I wouldn't survive another day of it. But luckily, I now have a lovely two week break so I can relax and revise for the two exams I have coming up in May.
We decided to venture down to Torquay yesterday as none of us had ever been there before, which then led to a day filled with Fawlty Towers references and we even passed the hotel that inspired John Cleese to write the show in the first place.
The weather wasn't exactly amazing, especially compared to the clear, sunny day before. It was absolutley freezing and quite overcast, but it didn't ruin the day at all. We also visited the aquarium which was a totally different experience to any other aquarium I've ever been to before. The penguins and all the birds were able to roam free outside under this huge net thing and you were able to walk through it too. We were basically dodging flying bird missles the whole time we were outside. But, the five year old kid in me was shining and soaking up the fun of the aquarium.
We had a little bite to eat at a Pizza Express after that and then wandered round the center of town for a bit. We couldn't go down to the sea front though which was a shame because apparently there had been a huge problem with sewage or something. Who knows.
I hope we go back and visit Torquay in the summer so I can actually enjoy walking round without having fifty layers on.
On a more sadder note, today is one of the days of the year that I dread to come. It's the anniversary of Kurt Cobain's death which always has me in a depressed mood for the whole day. No one really understands why I feel so sad about it, because I never even knew the dude. But, it feels like I do. His music and just everything he's done has had such a profound effect on me through the midst of my teenage years it's kind of hard not to feel depressed that I'll never meet him and thank him for all that he's done for me. If it weren't for Nirvana or other bands like Foo Fighters, I wouldn't be listening to the music that I do today, which I can't even bear to think about. I thrive off all the music I listen to now. So yeah. There's my little depressing note of the day. But, to try and lift my spirits, we should all celebrate what Kurt gave to the world. So, I'll link my favorite Nirvana song and another one that I've been listening to non-stop for the whole of this week.
I hope you have a nice evening and celebrate the life of Kurt. Rest in peace dude, thank you for everything.
