^ i'm going to see mew live no matter what. i travel often and if the timing is right and the only issue is flying over to a nearby country, i'm there.

:lol: it's ok. i understand :thinking: j/k lol

i work at the coffee club doing various things while part-time study. roughly 30 hours a week which i don't mind because everyone is wacky and hilarious. it doesn't even feel like work lol i thoroughly enjoy it. next year i'll be studying full-time again but i may continue to work on a very casual basis. ^^^ i'm glad when people love their job so good for you marcelo :thumbsup:

whoa, i didn't know you're a lifesaver. i think that's genuinely great.

7.5 the paragraph in german threw me off lol

i think you'll find this thread interesting: http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35155&highlight=88th remember the countdown nik did a little while ago. the scientist won it in the end. it's pretty interesting to peruse.

well you've set yourself up now josh, we deserve pics of these mutant eyes you speak of lol marcelo, welcome to coldplaying :) you're puppy is adorable, such a character lol! btw this is kate bosworth: notice the eyes (not very clear)

falling away with you/muse

haha the comparison with mm is hilarious. yeah kate bosworth has one green and the other brown. it looks really nice though...

lol thanks rick, only problem is the pain keeps refreshing the bad news

LOL this pic is hilarious but also quite mystique-ish :sneaky: (if that makes any sense)! keep the strange pics rolling in. btw you have really nice blue eyes! :stunned:

great pics andyjean, it looks like it was a fun night lol

afternoon everyone...! * i got my exam results back, soo happy. i got 88% with an overall grade of 7/7 which is a HD. sooo happy. :D * laptop fell on my foot badly injuring a toe (excruciating pain!) :angry: :o * and lastly, i lost my earrings. i only realised when i looked in the mirror and saw i wasn't wearing any :thinking:

7.5 i just made this one as i'm loving mew atm :D

lol this is very random but nice photos of your trip to the zoo. aww i love cats, all shapes and sizes. baby polar bears and siberian tigers are beyond adorable.

lol great quote posts mike. i found the 2nd one particularly humerous!

lol nice work josh. i try and spread the word, but for some the love isn't instant like it was with me and the first time i heard special. i'm sure their music just needs to get out more, after that their fans will multiply.

when it comes to a band i really like, i'm compelled to buy the album. frengers is currently on it's way so my collection is growing. a friend asked me today "what are you listening to?" and i'm like "most likely you don't know them, but a band called mew" and then a few people said simultaneously "muse?!" and i'm like, "no mew" they were like :blank: ? ^ you are one lucky guy leeds. i would love to see them live.

they make amazing music, i'm surprised there aren't more (obvious) fans. personally i'd love to see them in australia but it's clear there isn't much of a fan base here to make the trip worthwhile.

i've already got and the glass handed kites but there is no sign, and i mean none of frengers in australia. i've already ordered it in, as for the prev 2, time will tell if i ever get my hands on them.

thank you soooo much for that. i haven't seen this one yet. comforting sounds is amazing. as you can see, i'm clearly in love already.

hard to concentrate/rhcp

most likely this has been posted before, but i think it's hilarious. i like it when they make fun of themselves. guy looks the funniest, jonny doesn't even look like he's reading, chris is anything but discreet and will lol he looks the most genuinely interested in the article :lol:
