SMALLVILLE... RIP 16/10/2001 - 13/05/2011 :(

First off, I do not support or actively participate in *SPOILERS* unless people request for it. ESPECIALLY with TV-Shows, *SPOILERS* are a no-no and hence, this blog post will contain none, except cold hard facts about the mild-mannered, hay bucking Clark Kent A.K.A The Man of Steel A.K.A Superman :)

It's finally happened. My favourite show of all-time has reached the end of the line after 10 enjoyable years of blessing everyone with its awesomeness. It's important that all readers of my blog and this post know JUST how much this show means to me, JUST how much I liked it and I dare say, its influence on my life:

I got into this show when one of my best friends (even to this day) Tim sat next to me in the Physics laboratory and casually asked "Do you watch Smallville?" I looked at him strangely and replied with a question "What the heck is that?" The year was 2006. I was young, fresh to death and looking for a show to sink my teeth into for the first time. My friend Tim hooked me up with the first four seasons on DVD and said for me to watch them and enjoy, he winked and said I would like it forsure, it was to do with Superman...

So I began to watch this show... Smallville. And holy shit was it amazing! After the Pilot episode I was hooked, bigtime! So hooked, it was all I could think about at school, after school I would sometimes abandon my favourite Counter Strike : Source (CSS) and watch it, forgetting about homework, babes and the chores my dad always mananged to find for me.

Kks.
FAST FORWARD to the year of 2011.
Late 2010, my daddyo comes up to me and asks me what happened to me watching Smallville. I stopped and had a good, long and hard think about it. Finally I found the answer and replied with "I don't know actually." But see, the real answer to WHY I stopped watching this magnificent show was because it stopped showing over here in the West. And it was an exciting time in my life, I had things to do everyday, parties to rock out to every weekend, babes and friends to text and Bebo on most every weekday... Eventually Smallville just fell of my THINGS-TO-DO-LIST and began collecting dust....

But it was my father who got me back into it. He became an avid fan around 2007 when I got him into it. We used to watch episodes together, real cool father & son bonding shizznit right there beleive you me :). And when my Dad said the show was on its final season (being 10)... I sparked into action. I just had to get my hands on every episode of that show to date and indulge in it one last time.

And that, ladies and gentlemen is EXACTLY what I did. From the humble Season 1 to the final, illustrious  Season 10, I have watched every episode SMALLVILLE produced. And GREAT SCOTT! It has been AWESOME watching it again. It became my addiction again. Episode after episode, I just loved to keep watching. This shows has it all! Yes, with ANY show some episodes got dry at times, but it always stabilized the ship and brought the quality back on!

Look, I could write about and talk about Smallville til the cows come home. Let me just say... There is a REASON (actually many) why this show is rightfully cemented as my FAVOURITE TV-SHOW OF ALL-TIME! And I strongly urge you to get your hands on all the available seasons and watch it! Let it take you on a wondrous ride that many shows will try to do and will most definitely uber fail at.

SMALLVILLE... Thankyou!
For the 218 amazing episodes produced from its debut date of October 16, 2001 to the final episode of May 13, 2011.
I can't wait to watch this show with my wife, kids and family, X years down the track :)
KUDOS & SALUTE!

Signing off with a quote that defines the show:
"a HERO is made in the moment,
not from questioning the past or fearing what's to come."

When Life gives me Lemons ... I make Lemonade :)

So there I was watching Smallville Season 6 and iPhone suddenly buzzes with a new Facebook notification stating that a friend posted on my Wall.

So I check it out and realize that the comment posted (by one of my good amigos) contained a link. Naturally, I click this link. I get redirected to a new page. This page contained a blog post made by a girl who I've heard so much about, even feel like I know... yet have never met her. I begin to read the post, occasionally chuckling at some of the words this girl generated ("... he makes rainbows look emo" being a my favourtie) and when I reached the end.... It suddenly hit me like ... Like... Like a brickwall to the face!

It was about ME :)
This individual wrote such kind and generous about me that it left me in a mild state of shock and awe
Why? Because perhaps for the first time in a long time... I was reminded that the positive-ness I try to pass onto others was actually well received by this girl and her boyfriend.

I was always taught, from a young age to be happy, remain positive, be positive, be kind, be honest,
As my father always said to me "Do onto others, what you want others to do onto you" ... Or something along those lines :). With that quote drilled into me at a young age, I always applied it, to most every situation, all day, every day.

Basically what I'm trying to say is that by reading that post tonight, it rejuvenated my core, reminded me that it's important I remain happy :) and try and make others happy at the same time :). To know that perhaps one of my comments made this girl happy enough to want to stay that way... has now made me want to the same, so much more. My week has been average, so many things I wanted to do, wanted to say... At times, even I deviate from being happy. When I do, I hate it with a passion and do everything in my power to return to that state of being positive. Comments like the one I read tonight help, alot. With the family, friends and that one love interest<3 that I have in my life right now :), I'm bound to keep it together in the tough times that will no doubt encounter me in the future.

Thankyou TH and JC

I'M BACK BABY!

My sincerest apologies for how long it has been since I last posted on here. In these last few months my life has taken more twists and turns than a rollercoaster at yer local theme park...

Anyways I'm back for business baby!
Stay tuned for more,
Much love<3

Who said I was studying for a degree?? I'm here for the Lols ^.^

In this moment in time, I'm finding myself sorta smothered between Tristram Walker to my left and Jayd Chirkoot to my right. We have assignments coming out of the ying-yang and yet.... All we can do is Lol and have a good time. My girlfriend is texting me, Tristram is looking up YouTube links and playing them on loudspeaker and Jayd is Skyping with a certain lady friend of his ;).

And what about Dan you may be asking? Well .... I'm in a tight spot. I want to work but I can't. I'm trying to work, but the distractions are abundant. I wouldn't have it any other way though, as always ... We will get the workload sorted and we will look back in a few weeks and be like "Haha guys.... We are legends ... So ahhh Tav?"

Uniiiii times for the win baby! :)

Ne-Yo ... You have earned my respect and admiration

Ever since Saturday night, I have been constantly repeating one artist amongst my favourite GLEE playlist. That artist is Shaffer Chimere Smith ... or better known by the stylish stage name Ne-Yo. His songs are epically awesome. Before Winterbeatz I knew 4 songs of his, Miss Independant, Closer, Because of You and the timeless So Sick. With that said, I would listen to these tracks occasionally and nod my head in approval of how good they were...

But when me and my partner in crime Jayd saw him Live, I instantly admired the guy, wanted to adopt his style, his swag, his look, his voice. He's one smooth criminal. His performance was flawless, all songs performed to perfection. I officially lost my voice on his last song so two thumbs up there. 2 days on ... I've been listening closely to more of his songs and so far my faves are the following:

- Beautiful Monster
- Champagne Life
- Mad


With his new album out soon, Libra Scale ... I can't help but not get excited for it. The power of music is a wonderful thing ... Now, today ... It's Ne-Yo's smooth tracks that are making me sing, dance and smile. Word

Let's Get This Shit Poppin'

Finally decided to create my own blog. Big shout out to my bro Jayd, for guiding me and eggin' me on to do this. Coming off the back of an epic w/end ... I feel it's time for Dan to start sharing. After all, sharing is caring ;)
