It is that time of year indeed. Today's my last day of finals (or exams, same thing), after that I'm off for another three months. It's a weird feeling. This year just sort of breezed by.

I'm lying still, my eyes are wide
My heart is pumping, I'm still alive

I'm still awake against my will
What will it ever take

Well, put off by only a month and a half, I finally got around to taking pictures of my new guitar stuff.

Here's my prized possession - the Fender Strat.

And what good is a new guitar without a new amp to go with it? The Line6 Spider III.

And last but certainly not least, an accessory whose size does it no justice as far as usefulness goes. The Line6 FBV Express Wah-Wah pedal.

Here's just a shot of me being a typical guitar nerd.

That looks properly brilliant Big Grin

Man... Kinda makes me feel a bit damp just having the 'fake' model. Would like an original quality guitar like that one, since mine was made by Fender under the name 'Squier' which basicly means its a cheap copy of yours (This one is the same as mine, notice the different style pickups).
Nice amp and Wah pedal too, any chance of showing off some of your skills to us?

Yeah, well as I mentioned earlier, the two biggest issues I had with the Squier Strat were the fact that it didn't stay in tune, and that the whammy bar didn't work for crap. Other than that the Squier isn't a terrible guitar... but there are subtle differences, for example my Strat is (I'm fairly sure) one of the "Fat Strat" models fitted with a humbucking pickup at the bridge position. Also notice the difference in sizes of the headstocks, the Squier model is slightly bigger. And... I like the look of the maple fretboard much better than rosewood.

As for showing off my skills (what skills? Hehe), I'll have to see if I can get my hands on a camera that actually works... my digital camera has a really second-rate recording feature but it's really grainy and there's no sound, so it defeats the purpose. But maybe if I can convince my friend to lend me his I'll be able to upload something to YouTube.

Woo what a night... had a work night out Go-karting in crawley...... really fun race.... my team came 4th of 7..... want to do it again...

Only one minor gripe..... I had a very bad accident where the car in front spun out in front of me on a corner blocking the track, its the fastest corner of the track too, being omly 2 car lengths behind him i shashed into him and ricocheted of the front of his car and hit the tyre wall at 90 degrees and got flung out of the car, with my chest smashing in to steering wheel  and face and arms hitting the tyre wall and the wall behind that...... OUCH pain.... knocked me senseless for a couple of secs.

A nice picture I was planning on drawing may have to wait as i cannot move my arms at this time and have brusies all over my body and a bent set of glasses and a cracked visor on the helmet...

Still most fun I have had in ages and definately want to to that again Big Grin

Hah, wish I could be as jubilant about my exam results this year... regardless, congratulations to you and welcome to your vacation.

Ah Magic the Gathering... you don't get any geekier than that Tongue Heh... seriously though, it looks like an interesting game, but forgive me if I never learn how to play. I never really fancied card-collecting games of any type.

*is soul-crushed*

You mean we cardfloppers are geekier than those 35+, pasty, white males who regularly attend 'Furries' conventions?

Not that there's anything wrong with that!

No offense intended. Wink

Liking fur doesn't imply anything bad (in fact, when the mood strikes me...), and you are perfectly within your rights to enjoy it.
