Media Diary from the last 7 days

Apologies everyone, as it appears that i haven't done my media diary. Well i can tell you that it has been quite a busy week. I have had many an essay to do, and have as a result i have listened to music for at least 10 hours this last week, this is not including the 80 minutes on the way to and from school on the bus, as this adds even more, and is something to be slightly ashamed off. Anyway, on other news, i have again become interested in the Kings of Leon album as i saw an advert for it on the way home, and as i haven't had the chance to buy it yet, I continue to gawp at it with a certain air of the kid in the candy store. I have also listened to snippets of it off the stingy old itunes, which by the way I think is one of the best applications ever created!
Oh and also, I have become interested in my gaming again, and as i cannot afford a PS3 yet, i'm making do with my PS2, playing Hitman Contracts (undoubtly my favourite stealth series), Midnight Club 3 (My favourite street racing game) and Black (great first person shooter). I played these all for an hour each at the weekend.
I also watched a couple of films at the weekend. I watched the film 'The Pianist', which i thought was an amazing piece of film, and one which i thought was very powerful. I particularly enjoyed Adrian Brody's  part in the film, and i'm yet to find a film that i don't enjoy him in. The next film 'Ray' is one of my favourites, about a particular favourite of mine, Ray Charles. Jamie Foxx in this film portrays a very accurate picture of Ray Charles, and I believe the film is a great way off looking at the life of a hugely talented star.
So thats basically it for this week, oh an by the way, check out Zero Punctuation video game reviews if you want a laugh:
