Christmas At Home!

Oh no. Its that time again. I have just broken my back, bent double in the attick - wrenching random boxes from the darkness and hearing the click of my broken bones as they buckle under the weight.

After regaining consciousness, I decided it might be a good idea to go back downstairs: I had been there for three hours -  feeling sorry for myself, I threw my broken body down the ladder - ignoring the remainder of my bones as they shattered. (Dont worry, I have spares)

Am I making sense? Thaught not!

I have always been a huge fan of Christmas, but the gap between preperation and outcome is too emmence for a lazy schoolboy to manage. Therefore, I cut corners. As you know, it is almost december and I still have not even began to drag my fat, lazy and wobbley body from my chair to the shops.

Next week, after printing some money, I should probably find the time to actually buy some presents.

In the mean time, Im going to decorate my room. To the normal person: Christmas tree and Lights. To me: lets go mad. Lights everywhere! A clumsy clot such as myself has a knack for dropping things and subsequently stamping them into the carpet with my clumpy foot. Armed with a brush and dustpan, I scrub at the carpet to remove the shards of glass and the remains of my china nativity scene: Jesus`s head was now split into 3 parts and spread across the carpet: Jesus butter.

I always treasure the moment when my dear Mother walks in, opens her mouth in mock delight and say "You poor, retarded boy - what have you done?" as she sees my Christmas Tree, lights and decorations... she then sees my hand dripping with blood: I diddnt see the smashed shepherd: Shepherd butter!

Am I still making sense? Evidently not - talk to you laters!

SeaMonkeyStudios Was born

Painfully, loudly and slowly, Mummy SeaMonkey pushed harder, her face reddening. Dramatic it seems, but true... I wish...

On the contrary, SeaMonkeyStudios was a fallback from a personal failure... my life - I created the channel 'PPTgames' in early 2008 to find that my camera saw nothing but vulgar, random and tallentless, well, rubbish. Not that I`m willing to say that anything has changed, but turning over a new leaf seemed the obvious thing to do.

Me. I love YouTube but despise the constant threat of rubbish that seems to fill the site. Dont get me wrong - there are some brilliant, brilliant performances on there that are world famous. However, there is an awful lot of pure codswallop! I simply hate logging on to see five hundred identicle videos entitled "horrible ladder accident" and "Man falls out of his window", it`s a waste of time and effort... so I decided to make some of my own.

Big Mistake... I think.

Do you like what I do on youtube? For me, every video I make tends to be better than its last. However, I still look back on the majority and think "What?" Despite this, in addition failure, I also gain practice and learn from mistakes. Therefore, one day, I hope to be to the same standard of the many talented editors, musicians and actors that are on YouTube to provide us all with the fantastic entertainment that we are used to.

Enough about my Ideas; the world is already a boring enough place.

As for the present, we have worked on two styles: Comedy, Horror and somtimes both. On my Channel (www.youtube.com/TheSeaMonkeyStudios), the main attraction is our work in progress - The Detective. Starring me, Daniel Long and Peter Reddish. The Detective is a comedy devoted to slapstick. Although this is an odd combination, we have been delighted with the results and hope to make more as soon as possible - although our work is flawed and far from professional, we like to think that we have used our combined efforts to make our product, at the very least, watchable, satisfactory, and amusing to watch. Our aim is to have fun all round, for you, and for us making them!

Enough with this idle chatter, I have some eggs I`d like to smash against a bald man`s head - come back soon for more!
