Ravyn's Journal

[Ravynlee]

Ahem, howdy.

This is my first megre attempt at a journal, so bear with me. I have no idea what to say, read a few other member's journals and thought, what the ****, I'll just start something and see where it takes me... feeling adventurous... whatever.

Um, introductions:

I'm a chick living in Australia, occasional freelance artist, uni-student (currently defered my BVA, visual arts, majoring in Drawing) I love to write, I have heaps of Fan Fics (but not the type that can be posted here, unfortunately, hehehe) and naturally love LP. Why else wold I be here otherwise, eh? I'm a proud LPU member now for 2 years, and great believer in Bourbennoda, the Triad of my fantasies baby, ye-ah!

Now for the kicker; I'm 29 y/o. Anyone got issues with it? Music reaches everyone of all ages, creeds, beliefs, etc, so if you're about to tell me I'm too old for this then sod off and keep it to yourself. The only reason I'm on the defensive is that a friend of mine (whose in her 30's) was flamed for starting a Numb Journal on another site, which I think sucks. Anyone who's into LP knows what they stand for, as I've mentioned above. Don't get me started, I'll be on this soap box all day, ranting and raving til I'm frothing at the mouth! Hehehe. Nice.

Anyway, that's it for now. Going back to check out more Rob pics now. Today Rob is my Adonis, tomorrow it'll prob be Chas again, can never decide.

Thanks for humouring me. Look forward to long winded debates and idle banter in the near future, eh?

Thanks again! :thumbsup:

Monday-itis

Hey... back again, just musing. Thought I'd instigate a habit here. Not sure what to rant about seeing as how the day's only been in operation for 2 hours for me so far (****** cats waking me up at the crack o' dawn for breakfast!) Anyhoo, just wanted to share my fav pics with y'all. 2 of my fav pics (as it stands today) of Chas and 2 of Lil Drummer Boy Rob. Hope you like as much as I do...

LONG LIVE BOURBENNODA, BABY! (hehehe) :thumbsup:

Thanks Woody and Lpp for the warm welcomes... much love to y'all *aww*

 

[woodyloveslinkin]

all u had to say was "im rob's girl, now **** off, he's mine"

lmao

 

[Ravynlee]

LOL@Woody!

Hehehe... thanks for that, nearly spat my coffee all over the keyboard. Thanks for the laugh... appreciated!

But I'm NOT Rob's girl. That is/was Susan's job as far as I'm aware. *** Damnit! Hehehehe. *sigh*

 

[Ravynlee]

Yesterday was a bad day. Moodswings gallore. I have more moodswings than anyone else I know, I swear to ***! *Next moodswing in 6 minutes* I wish that were as funny as it sounds. I miss my friends. All 3 of my best buds moved away over the last 8 weeks and I miss them all dearly *sigh*

Anyway... highlight/s of the day: Listening to Rock n Roll (Hip hop never could...) and Walking Dead, kinda in a continual loop while I played online earlier. That was great. Singin LP for 2 hours while I went through my mood motions.

Low part/s: Walking over to the shopping centre and realising my insignificance in the Grand Design as I walked through the car park (where my Friend Jammer and I used to go after family arguements to chill). Spent 4 hours and couldn't get my Sig right so I scrapped it. Waste of half a day.

On a lighter note: Woody cracked me up earlier and Vinny made me smile. Very appreciative. I knew I liked this site for a reason

Thanks guys! Hopefully tomorrow will be better. Peace out!

Man! I wish I could sleep! This sleep-deprivation thing's gonna push me right over the edge one of these days, i can feel it! hehehe *sigh*

I've been a busy girl... I posted into 10 different journals this morning, doing the PR thing, getting out there, getting known... jeez, hard work. But stuff it, I'm chillin now... talkin' to myself cuz everyone else is asleep and waiting for my extremely slow download of that LIT_extras clip the Viking told us bout yesterday to finish... It's been goin now for 7 hours now! That's either committed or just insane! Eh, fine line between distinctions, innit? hehehe.

I'm bummed. I'm having writer's block again. I wish I could pull myself out of it. I've written nearly 2000 pages collectively on the exploits of LP alone (as if that weren't enough to have me committed, or sued, either way ) But I can't even post it here, it's not... um... suitable for everyone shall I say. I wish I wasn't so **** hung up on drama and angst (but then, what's a good story without either, eh?) Still... I could reach more ppl if I wrote for a target audience, rather than just myself... I know but...

(Hey, I'm starting to like this inner/outer monologue stuff! Kewl! )

*sigh* What day is it? You know you're in trouble when you start asking your computer for the time of day. Maybe I need to unplug for a while? (argh!) No... might go struggle some more with my sig. ****... Bourbennoda-itis. Can't just be totally hung up on one member of the band, your head's gotta be distracted by three, count 'em, three members. Idjit! *sigh* Screw it, might just do a Rob sig and be done with it. There's not enough Rob love in the house. Maybe that's my calling. Wouldn't know, never had a calling before. Hehehe. Moron. Well, it's 4:16am. Time to get another cup of hot choc and stir up the neighbours with more LP cranked up. Hehehe. Til next entry, this is me, signing off. End of transmission. Fool.

Tuesday

Hello inner/outer monologue,

Had a productive day. Made my sig which I'm fairly happy with for now... aw, heck, it'll do. It has the three key elements in it, so really that's all that matters. When I get creative I'll do more... nah, too lazy right now.

Kinda bummed no one's responded to my intro post at the Noob section. ****** it. I'm used to my own company anyhoo, right? *sigh* *** bless my cd player, who needs company when you shove the headphones on and drown out the space between one's ears with a 6hr LP fest? Life doesn't get much better... er... sometimes.

Pay day tomorrow. Thinking I might order the FTI book over at LPU. Can you believe they want $32AUD in postage alone for that thing? Postage literally costs more than the book does, it's wrong! *grr * ****, I'll get over it. See, over it already. *** bless my improperly balanced hormone levels... hehehe. ***, I must be a barrel of fun to live with... *sigh* (Note to self: stop doing that so much or you will hyperventilate! Sighing, that be).

Wow... chick killed herself in the local shopping centre this morning. Suicide off the second story floor in the middle of the shopping complex... man. That's nasty. Glad I didn't go shopping like I was gonna. It's amazing, had I not stayed up all night here I probably would've witnessed it. Makes the stomach churn just thinkin bout it. *shakes head in shock* Well... what can one say to that? Bleak way to end my entry... Think I might go see if my Rob pix have been approved by admin yet. If I get bored enough I'll probably be back. *** knows I don't have a life these days... Idjit!

Thanks for the conversation. Always look forward to talking with myself. Talk to me again soon! TC, Rav,

"Basically, I just like to bang the **** out of the drums," - Rob '01

LOL, he's brilliant, don't really know why he doesn't get the credit he deserves, like in ETR, he's basically killing the drums, like Mike said.

 

[Ravynlee]

I totally agree. Man's got talent, to be sure. BTH is where he shines for me. Strange... he's so quiet. You wouldn't think he'd be that way... maybe it's a preconcieved notion, I dunno. Kinda makes me think of the typical Boy-Next-Door type, which in this day and age is a welcome sight to see, especially in someone in such a public forum. Good on him. Go Robbie! You can beat my drum anyday... hehehe.

Rob's drumming is so good and complex that I can't drum a thing by him, except Crawling, I can drum that. But songs like SIB, Numb, With you and more songs are songs where he clearly shows off his talent as a drummer. The album versions are complex enough, but when they play live, Rob makes the drum tabs even more complex. You can clearly hear it by first listening to In the End off HT and then off LIT. Rob is also not your average crazy drummer, he's calm and quiet, and in LP, Rob is probably the most professional of the guys, he's the perfectionist for sure.

 

[Ravynlee]

LOL@ Relax a bit! Hehehehe... my stomach trully hurts! *ow*

Hehehe... you are so right. Wow, and you're a drummer too? I can appreciate the complexities but don't share it. Only thing I'm good at banging is my head on this keyboard everytime the **** thing plays up, hehehe. Seriously, I agree with the professionalism bit. See one of the episodes of lptv (don't remember which one, 10 I think) where the guys are in rehersal and he tells everyone basically to get up (even though Phe or Mike croaks from the sidelines that almost the rest of the band is sick) and tells them to perform like they would on stage... slave driver! Love it, though. Good to see some bands actually aren't in it for the fun-time (groupies, ***, drugs, rock n roll lifestyle) but treat it like a job. Good to see. Much respect. And yeah, just so you know, this is about as relaxed as Ravyn gets. Hehehe.

TC, thanks Viking!
