About

Hrm. I already have a Myspace which is far busier right now, but I quite liked the look of this VIRB thing, with it's snazzy web2.0 looks and the whole encouraging users to use CSS thing.

Anway. My name is Datkan, which is a Chinese name if you haven't already guessed, though the spelling is a really crappy approximation. You may be thinking right now, what insane and cruel parents would give their child a name like Datkan, but I really rather like my parents. Now with that exotic name you would probably expect me to live somewhere nice lie Hong Kong, but I live in Coventry. Coventry is the 9th biggest city in the UK, and I also wouldn't doubt it if it was the 9th most poo.

In my spare time I'm a bit of a geek, especially with Adobe After Effects and Photoshop. Whenever I do something I have to do it right, so I obsess about it for hours and hours, reading magazines, surfing the net, checking every detail. Nerding out can get a bit tiring, so I also skate, which is how I got introduced to half this crap anyway. The route kinda went:
skater-->hypebeast-->video nerd-->present day.

Someday I hope to make a living from being a cool nerd. Someday is hopefully after I've been to a nice university and moved away from Coventry.

Not that I'm very good at remembering what's happened. But pretty much a transatlantic trip took place, and me, my ma and my bruddha ventured to New York, and hung out with my cousin for a while. Some shopping took place and a lot of cultural activities took place. Oh, …

Well it's been a while hasn't it.

A fair while since I touched this. Since I last touched this blog I have realised several things such as my life really isn't that interesting even when I am on holiday, because other people have to do such frivolous activities as working. Which is why for the most part …

Check the jukebox out.. it looks all fancy

Oooo.... very fancy... new jukebox. Meh. Anyway. Work experience is over and there's still bits of administration to do for school but I guess summer holidays are basically here. God I hope the reality is as good as the hype. Today was fun if a little mundane. Went to …

"We all admire the spangled acrobat with classical grace meticulously walking his tight rope in the talcum light; but how much rarer art there is in the sagging rope expert wearing scarecrow clothes and impersonating a grotesque drunk! I should know."
