An Interview With Caiman

Before Caiman's last match on Wednesday the 5th August 2026. I asked him for an interview....unfortunately for some reason unknown to me that it did not happen.

Here's how it should have gone down:,

Caiman, first of all thank you for allowing me this interview today. 

For those who don't know the Crocodilian Psycho, tell us more about yourself and the man behind the character.

On August 5th, at Celtic Wrestling’s 100th and final show, The Big Bang 7, you’ll step into the ring for the final time. How does that feel emotionally?

Do you feel any extra pressure knowing this is both your final match and Celtic Wrestling’s final event?

When did you know it was time to step away?

What would the perfect ending look like for you?

Now, looking back on your career, What moment in your career are you proudest of?

Who has been your favourite opponent?

What is the hardest part of being a wrestler people don’t see?

Did wrestling turn out how you imagined when you started?

What sacrifices did you make for wrestling?

Who helped you most during your career?

What’s something you wish fans understood about you?

Is there anything you think you'll miss the most when you retire from in ring competition?

You have built such a strong lasting legacy for those in the UK scene and internationally. Recently I was speaking with WWE and TNA alumnus Mark Andrews, and he spoke very highly about the impact you and Celtic Wrestling had on the South Wales wrestling scene. Hearing things like that, what do you think your legacy is within Welsh wrestling and this company?

How do you want fans to remember you?

What do you hope younger wrestlers learned from you?

Is there one piece of advice you’d give someone starting wrestling today?

What do you think your legacy is in this scene and company?

Who is the hardest hitter you’ve faced?

Is there any funny backstage moments you would like to share? 

Best crowd reaction you ever got?

What's the most painful bump you ever took?

When the bell rings for the final time, what do you think will go through your mind?

If you could speak to the younger version of yourself starting out in wrestling, what would you tell him?

Caiman, a pleasure as always thank you very much for your time. Thank you for everything you’ve done for Celtic Wrestling, Welsh wrestling, and everyone who’s shared a locker room with you. 

It’s been an absolute pleasure. Much love and respect to you always, brother. 

Thanks for reading and joining us today and remember to visit Clwb Crown Merthyr website or venue to get your tickets to One For The Road aka Celtic Wrestling: Big Bang 7

A video message from Tai aka Joshua Seth.

I requested a cameo video message from Joshua Seth who voices Tai. I was just telling him that I was a big fan of his work as Tai and that as a kid I gave myself the middle name of Tai.

I also asked him for a good ol' fashioned Tai pep talk to digivolve in the gym.

Social Media Explained in 1000 words - FREE EBOOK by SJones

Released in 2016 by south Wales music label Cylent Beatz. I was a part of Cylent Beatz as a volunteer i joined them after I lost my first job and I had a hell of a year with them. They gave me opportunities to explore and skills to expand and new ones to build upon. I am greatly thankful for the time spent there and for all they have given me. 

This ebook was the first I did with them, we were supposed to work on a series of books in a 1000 words per book it was going to be a self-help/advice book series, but the plans did not go through, and I only have 2 ebooks from that series for you. Since 2017 I have made a few more 1000 word self help books you can now find on my blog. 😁

What Makes A Good Customer?

Are you a customer? Would you like to be a good customer?

"But Scott?" I hear you ask, and now I will tell you exactly HOW you too can be A GOOD CUSTOMER!

AN ITEM DOES NOT HAVE A PRICE OR DOES NOT SCAN IS FREE!

Please refrain from using the classic Retail chat-up line known as "Oh this item did not scan, so it must be free *fake laugh*" AHAHHAHAHA YOU ARE SO FUNNY AND YOU ARE RIGHT IT IS FREE! NOOOOOOOOOOOO! STOP!!!! "But Scott, there's no price on this item, so is it free?" LORD GIVE ME STRENGTH, If this was the case I think a lot of people including myself would be snagging the item and walking away happy....NO OF COURSE IT IS NOT FREE! Please do not say this classic line, even if it is tempting because the retail worker will only fake laugh and be raging and swearing inside their own head and behind your back when you leave their general area. Thank you.

DON'T TRY A MASSIVE SHOP WITHIN THE LAST 10 MINS OF THE SHOPS OPEN TIME!

Please be mindful of the workers and do not commence a big shop when the shop is about to close because this makes you look like the biggest liar on the planet. "Oh but I won't be long, I'm only going in and out for 5mins." Sir we are about to close in 2 mins, so why did you leave it so late? Please refrain from taking the piss, ta.

SUN'S OUT, WHAT A SHAME FOR YOU!

Please be respectful to those who work in retail in those extremely heated conditions. "Oh it's a gorgeous day init? Shame you have to be stuck here eh?" Oh wow, thanks mate for noticing the fact that I am stuck here, inside, bored working for 8 hours mindlessly and sweating out of every hole on my body while you have freedom and can keep yourself cool in these conditions. That always means a lot :D

HOW CAN YOU WORK OVER CHRISTMAS?! WHAT ABOUT YOUR FAMILY?

Please be mindful of your words. "Why are you working all over Christmas? Where's your family?!" Well Sharlene I lost my family when I was little due to an accident over Christmas holidays, and so I am forced to work to keep shoppers like you happy, all the while keeping my mind off my troubles for rude people who wish to criticize strangers because you have nothing better to do. Thanks for giving me a great Christmas present in your rudeness and so THAT'S WHY WE ARE OPEN!

MY ITEM IS NOT HERE! GO CHECK FOR IT!

Please again be understanding that items are not in unlimited supply and that if we had stock that the stock would be out. "What do you mean this item is sold out?! There's more in the back I bet, go check for me!" Listen if there was stock it would be out here on this lovely, dazzling, white, seamless shelf for your purchasing needs. Even when we do go and double check, WE DON'T FIND IT! WE ARE NOT HIDING OR WITH-HOLDING ITEMS! UNDERSTAND THAT NO YOU CANNOT GO AND CHECK FOR YOURSELF!

I BOUGHT THIS ITEM, I WANT MY MONEY BACK & I DON'T HAVE ANY PROOF!

Please understand that if you throw your receipt away, it voids your proof that you have purchased an item from us. No I can't give you something else equal to its value and no I can't get your money back without any proof of purchase, I am sorry, but this is how it works. A follow-up to this issue is usually a customer saying "I COME HERE ALL THE TIME, YOU SERVED ME THIS ITEM! AT LEAST GIVE ME A DISCOUNT!" Understand that what you are saying is all well and good BUT I cannae do it cap'n!

THIS IS A JOKE, I AM NOT WAITING IN LINE & I AM NOT COMING HERE AGAIN!

Please be patient! Look John just calm your tits for a moment, I know for a fact you will be back here when it is on a quieter day so be a normal person and not this entitled bastard and wait to be served JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE! I'd ask royalty to wait too if they were here!

I AM NOT PAYING FOR THIS!

Please know that is fine BUT I am scanning/giving you the exact items you wanted. By all means you can ask me nicely to put things back, and I will take them off your bill, BUT UNDERSTAND, YOU NEED TO ASK NICELY! Oh, another glorious one to hear similar to this is the dreaded "I PAY FOR YOU!" Now Sir/Madam I am certain that if you were not here with your stanky ass attitude that I would still be paid and oh by the way, YOU DON'T PAY ME!

WHY ARE YOU NOT OPEN YET!? I HAVE BEEN STANDING HERE COLD FOR HOURS!

Please understand our opening hours are advertised via front door signage and also online. We are not open every single hour of every day! It is no good knocking our doors at 8AM when we won't be open until 12PM! If you chose to stand outside our shop for hours in the cold waiting for us to open, well I'm afraid I got some baaaad news for you. Sucks to be you, thanks for trying but come back later to see the wonders inside the shop!

CAN YOU GIVE ME A JOB HERE?

Please know that I am not the manager, and please run far away from here before even trying to work here because you and I deserve a better work place BUT OF COURSE, I can get you a job here Kevin, where and when do you want to work? You can work now if you want? I mean there's a big queue, and we need more people to work today so why not eh Kev?! We do not get to decide who works here with us and when and 95% of the time have no idea when Jobs are going with us? So uh keep to those online job recruitment sites please.

Finally, do not treat our work place like a rubbish tip. It is not your own home! YOU do not have to clean up shit from the blocked toilets, you don't have to fix displays and shelves, you don't have to spend hours scrubbing off graffiti. Please have some respect and decency!

TO SUMMARISE:
#1 - BE RESPECTFUL
#2 - BE PATIENT

#3 - BE UNDERSTANDING
#4 - BE KIND
#5 - BE LOGICAL
#6 - BE MINDFUL

Go now onto the world of retail with this information in mind and pass it onto others, and you will receive a free blessing in the post! Thanks for reading and sharing this blog!

What Makes A Good Team Leader?

What is a Team Leader?

A team leader is someone who assists the team with their needs and relay to management. They ensure that communication from higher-ups is passed down more clearly and directly to teams. This keeps workplaces tighter and makes sure that teams have what they need when the need for leadership rears its head. Team leaders can be seen as a hybrid of management and staff, giving important help to both.

What does a Team Leader do?

They bridge the gap between management and colleagues, team leaders are often closer to the team itself and work within it while shouldering the job of reporting back to management and heading up roles including training, motivation, and the clerical stuff that comes with being responsible for colleagues. Team leaders also keep an eye on the performance of their team. They’re in the prime position to identify areas needed for training, team building, and maybe even promoting. Your team leaders might be empowered to organize these things on their own, or they can report back to management to get the ball rolling. They are expected to lead by example. It's a demanding but rewarding role.

What skills does a team leader need?

People skills. Great listening skills. Kindness, eye for detail, Organization skills. Effective communication with patience, empathy and ability to listen, you need to know people. Problem-solving skills. Being a leader.

Also for everyone please obide by the rules in the picture below. 

More tips and advice to come soon to my blog, follow or bookmark to keep your eyes open!

How I Treated My Covid-19 Symptoms.

Ok so my treatment of my Covid 19 symptoms changed gradually every day. 

To start for the first few days, I just took Ibuprofen, paracetamol, cough medicine & pastels and drank plenty of water and adjusted to my bodily fluctuations of hot and cold sweats. I also used my throat spray and had regular cups of Lemsip tea with some honey in it too. I gargled and spat out mouth wash every morning and night also. I made sure my window was always open to for fresh air. 

I regularly before and during and after Covid, sanitize my hands, always have because I am a bit of a germaphobe although to not an extreme limit, just to a point I feel clean. 

Sleep was hard to come by and I always felt tired no matter how much sleep I had but my sleep was almost everyday disturbed by myself waking me up via coughs or toilet trips. 

Later on during my illness, I did lost my taste and smell and I kept doing all I was doing prior but this time I used some decongestion nasal spray, vicks stick and vicks vapour rub to try and clear my blocked nose. 

However after my isolation period I went out and purchased some nasal spray which spray's vapour fumes up the nose and It is more helpful than your standard Vicks vapour sniff sticks.

I hope my guide and what I did can help anyone else struggling with their symptoms in anyway, shape or form.

Thanks for reading! 

STAY SHINY!

Be Nice!

Don't necessarily believe everything you hear or see, be it online or offline. It doesn't matter what age you are, don't let others opinions or what you read online, dictate how you treat other people.

Get rid of likes and follows or followers who do not impact your life in a positive way or do not help you're mental health. A healthy social media feed is essential for growth as a person and for a good mental well being.

Don't ignore pain. Pain is there to remind us our bodies and minds need to rest and recover. Grief has no expiry date but the passage of time does make it easier on ourselves. Remember the good times, hold onto those memories let the good moments inspire, motivate you and make you smile.

Don't be afraid to talk about what you're going through. Don't shy away from everyone just take your time and find ways you're comfortable to talk about things to people who care about you and those you trust. If you prefer talking in person or online just take your time when discussing those matters of the heart.

Don't neglect yourself or anyone and be kind, look out for one another, be supportive and caring but most importantly just be nice.

FILM BIT

This is the bit i list what films i have watched this month and say a bit about them and maybe rate them...

Valerian is a pretty good film. The visuals were the best thing about the film. Would have been an epic game if Bioware made it 6/10.

Atomic Blonde is good with amazing action scenes but it's story is ok  and i did think the last 10 mins were not needed but its sexy stylish and i'd give it 8/10. My movie of the month!

The Mummy 2017 this is not how you do a mummy film and kick of a dark universe, i see what they were trying to do but it did not work i think it was ok but nothing that special 4/10. 

Pandorum was ok...interesting indeed but just ok 5/10. 

The Last Witch hunter is pretty good not going to lie, i did enjoy it 7/10. 

iBoy is pretty good 6/10.

Random Ramblin's 32 - Heyeayeayea! What's going on?!

Sup metallic nation? Hope you are doing well!

Been a while since i posted anything here, just wanted to post a bit of an update and stuff as ever that happens in a random ramblin instalment. First off...The world is such a scary place right now. Sending prayers and well wishes to all those affected in #Manchester. 

Now to talk about things that have gone on this month......

I have been mostly ill this month missing 4 days of work. All due to throat infection. It's delayed me writing and working and gaming and other things. Over it now although i do have some sort of rash on my hands but this could be unrelated anyway that's my main big delay. 

Never been a big fan of #SamuraiJack but i am sad to see it end after all these years. It represents the last of the cartoon cartoons ending.

Ghosts are people from a parallel earth and only appear due to a bleeding effect in the universe? This is new theory and it has my attention.

Argh! Just realised i deleted save data for a game i just went back to playing, why me?! This is so annoying! It's ok i'll just get rid of this game bugger it.....

A message to all fame seekers, Get Famous for the Fame not for the Fortune....

2nd of May out of goodness of my heart and kindness of my wallet i ordered myself and my parents their first dominos pizza. They still prefer papa johns lol. 

Found out next Predator film has started filming so i am hyped! 

I seen my grandfather the other day first time since xmas, was nice to see him as ever, guy's a legend. 

Seen Jeff Dunham live in Cardiff. Achmed was the best but i hardly really laughed most of it was just forced laughter from me. I always get let down seeing comedians live the big known ones anyway. 

Well another season of the best show on telly has ended. I am sad but it was another great season #TheFlash @TheCW.

Sorted out my nephews Xbox 360 just a case of corrupted data with Minecraft.

Roger Moore has died. R.I.P.

Sports day

First time in years i went with my work and attended their sports day in Birmingham after 4 hours sleep and 5 hours travel and 6 hours of being in the rain playing football we got to Semi finals 4th place out of 17 teams. Good stuff right? I really wanted to win a trophy but hey next year i shall. I got us through the quarter finals in a penalty shootout i saved us, it was and is certainly a highlight. Great day despite the weather. 

Film Bit

Green Room - Mad film but i'd only give it an ok score of 5/10.

Batman & Bill Documentary - Really interesting stuff. Never knew Bill Finger did so much for Batman always thought more highly of Bob Kane and now I'm thinking less of Bob. Marc Nobleman is a inspiration to me now. (I CAN'T RATE DOCUMENTARIES SORRY BUT IT WOULD BE HIGH) 

Alien Covenant - Really disappointing film. Maybe extended cut will be better. Fassbender is best thing to watch it for. 5/10

Fast 8 - F8 of the furious eh? The fate was that it bored me mostly. I liked the prison fight scene. Never been much of a fan of this series though...

Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Dark Side of Dimensions - It's pretty good but lengthy. 7/10

Digimon Adventure tri. - Chapter 1: Reunion - Great start to a new adventure with the old gang. 8/10

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales - Was pretty good but mostly ok if this makes sense. I found a lot of it unfunny and predictable. Doubt it's the last pirates film. 6/10

Game Bit

COD Infinite Warfare - Well then that's the end of the campaign to that. I really enjoyed it's campaign. One of the best since black ops 2 I thought.

Smite - I got asked to play it, i had a go and i did not like it. 

Mad Max - Bought it two days ago, only played a little bit seems pretty good so far. 

Tales from Borderlands - Completed this again, nice to have had it free from ps plus. 

WWE Supercard - Currently addicted to this game....

SOUTH PARK FRACTURED BUT WHOLE 17TH OCTOBER

RDR 2 DELAYED TIL 2018

My one wish for #E3 is for @Sony to not bring a new @PlayStation YET! Give it 5 more years!

Music Bit

I find Linkin Park's new album One More Light to be terrible and a lazy attempt at mainstream pop music from them which lacks any energy. It has two songs i like and you are left at points like "Oh this will build up and get better" to find out it does not is a huge disappointment just like finding out this is an album from Linkin Park. Most songs feel like they deserve to be given to other artist's to perform. Not all fans will like it, and also for saying I don't like it and that LP should go back to not selling out and to go make good creative energetic music again has earned me a block and a punch in the mouth from Chester Bennington, so you know he need's to put his ego in check or he will lose more fans, the stupid idiot. Check it out if you want to but you should avoid it to not feel disappointed and if anything just listen to "Good Goodbye" it's the best song on the album. Review over.....not worth rating, it's bad....

LAST BIT

Ok the other day i asked people, if i should make a page dedicated to my writing...i have done it!

If anyone else would like to check it out whilst it's got that new page smell then do so and a LIKE is really appreciated as ever.

Be YOU! by Scott Jones

In a world of negativity be YOU!

Do what you want,do what you can,be respectful,don't mess others around,look how you want,eat and drink what you want. At the end of the day do what you enjoy.

I am sick of seeing negativity once again on here and in the online world of things in this honest to god mess of a world we live in, well ok its not the world at all actually just our society.

The society of stigma,the society of bashing one another's looks,their beliefs,their tastes, just everything.

Honestly people please look in the mirror take a good long look and think and I mean really think. Some, or in fact you the person I am talking to right now in written form may honestly think it's fun it's oh what's it called ah yes "Top bantz" to go around pissing others off and using them or just frankly abusing them? Anyone who thinks this way do me a favor, click on my profile and remove yourself.

If you think you can walk all over someone, anyone at all leave. If you think you need likes to feed your family or your ego look at me because you don't. If you think someone out of work is a lazy bum once again you have another thing coming. If you think having tattoos or someone weighing more than you is the works of the devil or just too much alcohol and drugs and kebabs or just being again lazy well it's not.

The point is you don't know what people's backgrounds,personal lives or mentality are like, so why do people choose to go off and like I said walk over others with abuse and fake friendships? No one needs to do that or get involved with it at all.

If you right now are happy with how you live,with what you do,who you are,who your family and friends are and how you look trust me you are perfect. You are perfect and beautiful no matter what flaws you think you have or what other flaws people make you think you have. If you are happy with yourself please smile and shine your smile directly to all those haters wasting their lives and their time on this planet being jealous and disliking you for something they don't have.

I just wanted to write this because things have built to a point where I feel like I have to say something about the way things I see are going. There are people in my friends list whom I would I would love to tell a few things to like "can you stop ditching or lying or bitching to get others to like you and befriend you" and other things like "can you stop belittling yourself because you are amazing or can you not like fall for " idiots" but I won't certainly not here online and that's the way it should be and not airing dirty laundry all over the Internet even if it may feel good for a few seconds but just don't like honestly keep the drama to the TV shows. Right I am ending this status because I am done venting for one day, so thanks for reading and one last thing....

BE HAPPY,BE BEAUTIFUL,BE YOU!

And take care :)

Tips on interviewing others.

Back once again with some more tips, this may become a new feature here on my blogs which may transcend to the podcast and youtube realm later on but for now you have this :) 

First off it really helps to find out more on who you are interviewing so study them, visit their social media accounts and see what you find and see and read. 

Second you need to plan questions, i normally write out at least 10 and ask how many i see fit and you know in terms of with others you can ask the same questions but it always helps to spice things up and ask new and other questions too.

If you get stuck on what can you ask the person you are interviewing, its no crime to google some questions so do feel free to do it.

Adjust questions: By this i mean if you are talking to a company ask about business what are they doing for the community maybe, if its a band ask for their musical influences, if its a solo singer ask if they had any singing lessons. There is so much to ask it depends on who or what they are.

Try asking a question that can catch them out: Easier said than done this one, the standard questions like how are you or what got you into the business are all well and good  but the person on the other hand may have seen that coming and prepared for questions before the interview but would they ever see a question coming such as "Who ever said humpty dumpty was an egg?" coming towards them? I think not. Try make them laugh aswell.

Eye contact: This is a big one for anything at all in life. A tip i got told which is rather funny is look at the persons eyebrows because hey its eye level more or less and it does work. 

Dress to impress but not to steal the show: Dress appropriate smart but casual. Let the person feel that you are laid back and things will be good.

Body language: Hard one here, remember how they told you to sit or stand in school STRAIGHT UP haha. 

Recording: If you are recording the interview obviously make sure everything has memory and is charged.

Be polite. 

Ok and that is basically everything covered i believe. Let me know if these tips help in anyway shape or form for you. 

Remember study,be polite,stand/sit straight,dress casual but smart,have questions written out and some sneaky ones to catch them out on,look in the eyes or at the eyebrows. Adjust questions on the person or company you are interviewing,plan accordingly and make sure recording equipment is all in good order. 

Thanks for reading,til next time, the god is out! 

Tips on landing good impressions.

Hi again.,back to give some tips this time on impressions.
I don't do many good ones i find but of course the tips i can give are as follows.

Pick your subject: Say for example Clint Eastwood. 

Study them: Watch and listen to them over and over and over. 

Find their unique thing: Be it a nasally talker or a facial feature as much as the impression vocally it helps to impersonate their facial features like continuing with Clint he has his signature squint. 

Do the impression you have conducted from your studies out loud by reading,looking into the mirror or just generally talking in the person you aim to impersonate out loud about your every day life.

Focus on small words in the impression first maybe a key line the person says in a film or show on tv. 

Keep working on it.

Keep studying them.

Keep doing the vocal impression.

Keep doing the physical expression impression.

Have a go doing different accents aswell it will help greatly.

More tips here from the net:

If you don't have the right voice to do the impressions, copying the body language of the intended person would help the overall impression. so people can recognize the person you try to imitate.


If a person's voice is out of your range, don't worry about it, and find someone else, if you strain your voice to get the range perfect, you can permanently damage your vocal cords.


Try to envision yourself as the person you are trying to imitate. It will make it easier subconsciously to act out the subtle mannerisms and behaviors the person exhibits.


Also, do impressions that someone would instantly recognize to make the show more entertaining to watch.


Try to identify what sentence or phrase that the person you want to imitate always said, memorize it, and use it. It can be helpful to enhance the quality of your impressions.


If you really, really want to invest your time in it you can increase your range by taking it step by step. Do vocal exercises, and take your time. Again, if you strain, you could cause damage, but taking it step by step can help.

Until next time my super peeps, the god is out!

Random Ramblin's: Part Pedwar - The painful truth of the past and encouraging words of wisdom.

Alri?

***F.Y.I. - So this blog post i have been debating on publishing it or not for the past few days now because i open up more into myself with my past,my life and of some serious issues and these issues these experiences i have decided to weigh in on with my experience and dealings with them and i hope you the reader,reading this understands and takes in consideration how tough it was for me to type and open up a lot more than i very rarely do. I also hope this blog post and my experience's help you through any pain or depression state you maybe in at the moment. You know through my debating my good american friend Annika has really helped me and opened my eyes and not just on my decision of posting this but on a lot of things in the past since i have known her and since we have become friends,so a special shoutout and mention to her!      I hope you take good care of yourselves my friends,family and metalgods and now do me the honors of reading on, yes? :) ***End of F.Y.I***

How's it hanging? Hanging low? Not bad.....what your hanging too low? Well that happens as people age HAHA and hey you,just a heads up don't expect many jokes here today in my blog and i do apologise for it.

So Scott,what are you going to rant and comment on today? Oh that's a good question i will let you know below. So today i get serious and emotional in writing and discussing.

*******STOP! BEFORE YOU CARRY ON, I HAVE TO SAY, I HAVE NOT TOLD ANYONE MUCH ABOUT ALL THIS OF WHAT GOES ON IN MY HEAD ETC SO TAKE IT INTO CONSIDERATION AND READ CAREFULLY NOW!**********

Pain & Depression - Lets start with Pain. We all like it yes? No? Yes, you are right of course we hate it but pain is a very valuable big part of our lives we will all suffer pain in our lives at some point. From things like relationship break ups,passing of someone we know to hurting our selves. We feel pain physically and mentally heck i would say emotionally too but i will wrap that into mental pain. The greatest teacher we will have is pain, we all must be taught it but we must not be schooled by it. Pain and overcoming it defines who we are as people individually. These scars you see are lessons that have left their mark on me,to remind me that i am still alive,that i am human. You know talking of scars and pain and cuts and marks, my dad always shows me a cut or scratch or worse when he has been hurt and tells me how it happened to him, how he got hurt and a scratch or cut no matter how big or small or accident or not,i think it is just to show me that the man who brought me into this world is not immortal and that he does get hurt. I love the man to bits i may not show it or tell him but i hope he knows that i do. Pain is a natural part of life as i said and to me it reminds me that i am alive and human and i am getting pretty emotional right now (I KNOW RIGHT!?) sorry about that. You know i was born into life with a broken foot, a clubbed foot really and through my childhood i suffered with it and had continues work and operations to get it fixed and its better than ever today although still a bit clubbed but i got the scar on my foot for life and of course, i went through pain with my foot for years. As a child and a baby i could never crawl or walk right until i was roughly 3/4 years old because of how fucked my foot was. I used to shuffle across the floor on my butt as a baby until i could actually walk right. I have had specially made shoes for years for my foot,i have had crutches,zimmer frames and wheel chairs to use while my foot was healing but as i said its all good now and the scar remains and i have the metal plate that was in my foot out and in a jar on my shelf and it serves as a reminder of what i have been through in order to fix a broken part of me. Life welcomed me in by telling me the safety and comfort you had in the womb is gone and welcome to life, live it for as long as you can,do what you want but always remember through pain,there is a lesson to be learned,you must remember your limits and that you are human,it is normal to feel pain. I have felt a lot of pain in life i try to keep in my emotions to myself and you know what it is not right at all but i have this pain then of over thinking and just putting myself down by telling myself "no one cares for what you feel or say or are going through or have been through" that is wrong,it really fucking is! Its frustrating me right now! I always put on a fake smile,i am an emotional sensitive guy, i'd say its quite easy to make me cry. To be completely honest, i care to much for my friends and family and not myself too. I take care of myself last,if a friend is in pain or upset guess what so am i! My friend one of my best friends Louis recently broke up with his girlfriend and he and his gf were so close and a cute couple it upset me when he broke the news to me that she had dumped him, i felt so sorry for him and i was there trying to pick him up,that's what i do for all of my friends who are in any pain i try to help them get back up and i don't stop until they are! Any of my friends reading this right now first of all hi! and i shall always be here for a chat anytime,place,day,year etc. Of course i hope they already know that but people need to be reminded and also need to know that i want to help them as much as i can. Pain does a lot for us in life and the mental pain is the long lasting unseen pain we have to experience but take my word for it right now. PAIN DOES END! Pain changes people,to be stronger. Pain is just weakness leaving our bodies. Pain is there reminding us we are human,we are not immortal,we are better than it and we will recover and get over it. I have felt pain more than once in both ways as well as being depressed.

Now lets move to depression and well my experience with it.  In the year 2012 things were worrying me a lot as it was supposed to be the last year of the world in aztec culture you know so we had the internet and news full of doom and gloom reports of the world ending soon so that was playing to my mind you know, what if this year is the end etc and it was no way to live and think constantly and what not and i was at the time working in a work experience placement that was an insurance company. Its a lovely company the people there are all funny and lovely too but what got me to become depressed that year aswell as the impending end of the world was the fact everyone there was older than me and i to be honest think i had a breakdown of a panic attack i was doing the same thing every day,same time,different day,same place,different clothes you know where i am going. Anyway i looked around myself and seen everyone in the office as they are older than me and a colleague was helping me with a spreadsheet and his hand was on the desk and i just looked at it stared at it what felt ages and then i looked at my hands and it just hit me really fast right on my head and got me overthinking. I am getting older. i am going to be old. I AM GOING TO DIE! That was the point my breathing was getting faster i started to panic i excused myself calmly and went to the toilet to try and calm down by soaking myself with water and telling myself its all ok and things will be better and i was over reacting so 5/10 mins later i emerged and went back to my desk no one asked a thing about me and then it was the end of the day of course end of the world,aging and death were on my mind on a bus ride home and it was getting me worked up so much but know what pushed me off the edge? Seeing a plane in the sky (of course) and imagining myself parachuting and that was it,i was sat on the back of the bus just panicking to myself sweating, i kept it all in,all in my mind this was going off it was a set of mini bomb explosions just making me sweat breath faster and just the sheer level of overthinking was too much and just of shit i am going to get old and die some day,what happens when we die? what would i rather do be cremated or buried? and so on i wont go to much into it because still thoughts of death and what's next and stuff still gets me to over think and a lil upset,see i told you i was an emotional sensitive guy. However my depression lasted 3 months and boy it was no fun or no walk in the park,i would act around people normal but on the inside i would be destroying myself overthinking of all the things i mentioned and now by the way through my life i have had these little what if scenarios in my mind before i try or do or go somewhere that also have frightened me and put me off a lot of things in this life. Depression for me was feeling extremely lonely when i wasn't to feeling burned out which was a form of laziness and anti-social so i would be like purposely avoiding people because i didn't want to get any thoughts and ideas to make me dwell deeper into sadness and bring anyone down with me,i kept things on the inside because it felt safe when really looking back on it,it was a stupid thing to have done, i should have talked to people about it but i was afraid people would not take me seriously. It made me see no point in living of which i had contemplated suicide but i did not go through with anything at all because i was stronger than the thoughts, i thought to myself it would be messed up and sad and i was better than that and i will beat what has a hold of me and i did beat it,it took 3 months but i did beat it, it took me hanging out with my friends more so i can get distracted and get my mind off it and onto better things like giving myself a purpose to keep on fighting and what caused me to break free from depression you may ask? A night out with my best friend James and his gf to a nightclub and to have drinks,enjoy the company,the night,music and our surroundings and also being hit on by some random girl of which i ended up dancing with, nope i didn't get her number and she also never did add me on facebook or follow me on twitter but its her fucking loss,she didn't want this legend that's her problem,the day after that night out i felt alive again and it was a good feeling and i was actually up and atom doing things with my head out of the clouds free from the rain.

God that was a bit tough to get out of my system to remember back and to talk well type about but something i have discovered during my depression is writing about it did help and writing about other things,just writing is such an awesome thing to do to get your head away from your troubles and to be teleported into a world of creativity to write what ever you want. I wrote many lyrics and stories in that time some not good others good haha its just the way it goes really (genuinely smiling now like). You dont really need tablets to get over depression you need the right environment and family and friends also music helps too, you don't need to harm yourself to escape pain and depression you need to vent about your troubles or write about them ok please if you are suffering right now take care of yourself,see your friends and family talk to someone and write about it, you are not alone!   REMEMBER! If you ever feel in pain,depressed,angry,lonely do not be afraid to talk about it. Be it physical or mental or to yourself,a family member or friend, always talk about it or do something creative like write about it. Write about what you feel and why you are in pain and write about why you will over come it. Pain does end,you are stronger than pain,you are not immortal but you are strong and a beautiful brilliant human being and for that i respect you dearly my friend.

That is all i have today for you,its been a emotional serious topic and discussion but i thought, i would splatter my brains on the canvas or keyboard or rather my laptop screen and its pretty hard for me to talk of what i feel really in person or otherwise haha

Hey! I got an idea to lighten things up I shall name two famous people who I think would give bad advice to you. Gene Simmons for his infamous rants on depressed people and Shia Lebouf for his just do it videos all because if say you were thinking of self harming Shia well he will no doubt tell you his two famous motivational words.  So that's all from me tonight for this blog entry.
