Weekly Changy Moves Location.

Hello Everyone...

After gazing into space, biting my fingers and wondering what to say I've finally thought of something. 

So for the past week and a half or so, I have been ferociously busy with my time. Once again I am on another deadline, but this is not a deadline for handing university paperwork, this is a deadline to get all of my things out of the house before I become homeless for approximately 24 hours, and then I will be moving into my new temporary home for the final year of University. 

As you may have guessed, I have yet to pack away the exact device that I am using to type this post away into it's box. Im going to do this on the last day to be honest. 1 or 2 days ago, 'me bird' Abigail asked me:

"Are you nervous about moving in?"

At the time I said no, which is true, I've done this twice before so I am not nervous. As spectacularly pathetic as this sounds I am more concerned at the fact that I may be without the Internet and the Web for more than 24 hours. Seriously, turn around right now. Now look left, then right, then up and down and where ever else you have not looked... Do you see it? Of course you don't, its Wifi (and 3G if you like).  It's just there, and almost everyone is dependent on it nowadays, this is what I can relate of it:

"The Force (or Wifi in my case) is what gives a Jedi (you) his power. It's an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together." 

- Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Now can you tell me what this quote tells us? ... Yep you guessed it, Obi-Wan Kenobi, invented the Internet.

For approximately 1.3 seconds I got excited, reason being is that the next post will be in the new house, new room, new desk, new ideas? who knows. What is exciting me a lot lot lot lot more at the moment is that it's 5 weeks to go until Global Gathering 2012 kicks off. The festival that I have been looking forward to all of last and this year, ever since it ended last year. With my YouTube channel up and running, expect lots of coverage at the festival. Which reminds me, the rest of this post will be dedicated to my very late report of the night 'Digital Society Presents Full on Ferry'.

Full on Ferry - Leeds

The actual day of this event was a specific day where there was no way of me getting out of work, and so the usual Sunday 6:30am wake up for work was the beginning of the day. Boring work came and went. My next task was rush home, grab my gear that I had prepared the night before, and rush to the train station to catch a 1h 48m train ride straight to Leeds. I am pleased to report that I did actually manage to get that train and was in Leeds at 19:07pm. A city where I had never been before. 

If I can give any advice to someone that has never been to Leeds, and are getting a train there, the advice is this: Do not create any litter, because there is no bin to be seen, not anywhere in the train station, nor outside. I don't know whether it was just me but I could not find one anywhere. 

I arrive at the hotel with precision timing. So nothing to do but wait for Dave Collins and Dr Thornthwaite to arrive at the hotel, becuase Dave had the room res'. After 30-35 minutes of waiting they arrive, and in style. I do not have a picture of what Dave looked like but picture this: Adam Jensen with a wooly jumper and a back pack. Dave looked so good, that Dr Thornthwaite had to rapidly create a black hole in the lobby to suck in the girls that were trying to grab Dave's face to suck it and to engage in intercourse with him.

Moving along now. Got ready. Went out:

These were the scenes at Full on Ferry. Not bad considering I got my ticket for free. 

I am not always a believer of VIP, when it comes to nightclubs and night outs, however I was the competition winner for the event, and so very luckily I got 2 free VIP tickets. What I was really impressed with when it came to VIP at this event, was the exclusive bar, with very little queue's, and the toilets. For once no one was in the toilets to do drugs, which I was surprised with. To top it all off was the incredible view we had when it came to having a time out from all the raving. 

...I have just looked at the content I got from the event. Turns out I have more video content than pictures, which means these videos will eventually wind up on YouTube on my channel so keep a look out.

Get Out, Stress Out, Get In, Pack Out, Relax In

I don't know whether I use the phrase:

 'It's that time of the year again.'

But I feel that I use it too often, and so I 

would like to announce that I will be using it

for the introduction of this new post.

Here we go.

It's that time of the year again. Like lots of University students, your all preparing for the same mother nature occurrence that shifts us all from one hibernating ground to another. The random adjective jibberish I speak of is moving out time is upon us. To pack all of your things and get out of your hole, your ground, your hiding place, your sanctuary, your hell pit, or quite possibly your temporary home.   

Some of you may be feeling relieved to be moving out, others may be annoyed, others may be horny. Whatever emotion you feel, you must all think one similar thing, and that is:

 Do you not think it's gone fast?

I actually remember the first day I moved into the house that I am currently inside right now typing this post up. A very hectic day as lots of different things were happening all at different times in the day, for instance, being at the agency office at 9am to pick up the keys and pay the top up rent, going to collect the van with all of our belongings on the drive of the old house. Transport the van to the new house which was probably the most difficult driving job I have ever had to do to date. Then to literally throw everything into the new house, race the van back before 12 or 11, then get a cab back to the new house, unpack a little, get ready for work, then get to work for 12:30. 

I find that you do not just take your belongings with you, but you take the memories as well. The top five things I remember are:

Being sick in the toilet and to have Kenneth Barnett Laugh at me as he is lying in the bath tub laughing, unaware that later on he could not get out, because of his alcohol levels.

Waking up in the morning to have learned that I had vomited on the wall of my room, partially the landing floor, and parts of the toilet due to a heavy drinking session. 

Testing out walking up the stairs whilst looking through a floppy laptop glass thing.

Wanting to go to bed around 5am after drinking in the living room with Kenneth Barnett, with him being unable to function his limbs and flopping around on my bed like turtle on its back, saying statements that he had previously stated 20mins ago.

Attempting to kill a wasp that entered my room, and hitting over 10 times with a Dj-mag. I assure you this was in self defence.

P.T.O

New subject now, for I must ask an open minded question. When I was recently in work, one of the morning staff, was asking me about my University work and what I do. Upon telling him we got into a discussion over Ethics. He believes that your own Ethics is precious and easily manipulated, which I agreed. What made the discussion more interesting is that he also believes, to this day, that pursuing any professional career will harm his Ethics and the way he views the world, which is something that he does not want, and so that is his explanation for not pursuing professional careers. 

I quote:

"You know, in that sort of industry (media), people will tell you what to do, how to think, Im not the person dya know what I mean? I will still be the same through out, no one can change me, if it's wrong in my eyes it's wrong, I won't do it."

My question (or argument against this if you like) is that surely where ever you work your Ethics will be altered in a way you will think differently of the world and of people? 

Everybody has a different build up of Ethics as a child, but from birth your Ethics have been constantly altering in the way you think, so why stop? Is it bad?

I did ask him this, but our discussion was disrupted so I never got a answer to it.

Ladies & Gentlemen.

May I have your attention please.

In the previous post I was detailing my personal work that I am still currently going through. It has been a long winded task, not exactly difficult but none the less, long. This is not finished, but it has come to the stage where I can reveal what it is. I introduce to you all, My new YouTube Channel, known as what would have been the 'Iwas There' Channel, but Google does not like this so it has to be known as the 'James Chang YouTube Channel'...Oh well.

What's on it?

Well this new YouTube Channel holds an archive of clubbing event highlights, from the past 2 years. This is what I like to call it, you on the other hand, may interpret it as me yelling a lot on lots of different content on the channel. Interpret it as you like but that is what the channel is for. 

Ever wanted to go to a clubbing event but never attended? 

Want to see what happened?

Check it out!

P.S I would rather you go on YouTube and look at this introduction video as the screen width is better than this little peep hole. 

Next Time on Weekly Changy (If I remember)

I'll report to you about this event:
