Hmm, black coloured braces? That'd been an interesting combo, pity I didn't really get creative with my colours.

I do believe that was in my emo phase. The pink came from an "I want to be seen as girly" phase and then I jumped onto the internet then the emo one came.

Re: Off Topic
I wish I'd started a bit earlier and kept going with YouTube as it was much easier to make it bigger back then. I was too young to realise the opportunity. The Internet is seriously over-saturated now, just like everything else!

Hmm, I never really did get to define my own phases, I'm not even sure what they were or their focal point.

Re: Off Topic
Well you'd have never liked the spot light much! I'm trying to gain some kind of edge so I've got more of a package when it comes to more TV work.
I auditioned for the Junior Apprentice as well when I was the right age!

Junior Apprentice, that'd be a sight, you against Lord Sugar!

Re: Off Topic
Lmao, yeah I was pretty much the same back then. The auditions were pretty shitty tbh, not a very fair playing field. It was funny, a few people totally broke down in their audition standing up in front of everyone and the producers haha

Sounds like the kind of environment I'd actively avoid.

Re: Off Topic
Well I get nervous as well. Especially for Big Brother. You had to stand in front of a camera, producers, and a group of people and describe yourself in a minute and answer questions. I hide my nerves very well, but it's like what Rocky said:
*not accurate quote*
- Fear is like a flame, if you let that fear get you it will burn you up; so you have to control that fear and use it to explode! - In a good way obviously hahaha

Hmm, an interesting quote. I guess you've been inspired by it, no doubt.

Re: Off Topic
Haha yeah there's a lot of good quotes from the Rocky movies to live your life by.
I just find you have to get over the nerves and do your thing. I guess some people are better then others. I think it's just human nature to be nervous. It's never hindered my performance abilities, I've never let myself down through nerves in a TV audition

Re: Off Topic
It's mostly just my introverted nature, I don't like attention, but I can deal with it if I must.

Re: Off Topic
I have a very split personality in that respect. Sometimes I have to be the center of attention and I wont feel satisfied until I am. Other-times I just want to do my own thing and be totally under the radar.
It's very strange .

Hmm, that is curious indeed, but we all have different needs in different scenarios, I guess.

Guess you've got the tenacity to keep going, eh? I just hope the same tenacity will help me through this final exam on Monday.

Re: Off Topic
Yeah, there are a hell of a lot of odds to over-come and set-backs. At least with exams you don't have to be connected to succeed. Just work your ass off. With TV you can't just revise enough and get the deal.

Re: Off Topic
I can't really add or say anything more to that, as I've never been through such a process, I just wish you the best of luck on your next excursion.

Re: Off Topic
The next, and final exam, is Futher Pure 2. With wondrous Matrices, Complex numbers, Polar Co-ordinates, Calculus of trig functions (all of the good arcsins and whatnot), Hyperbolics and probably some more.
