... the introduction.

Hello, my name is Joshua A-S; this is 'Welcome to...'. What this blog is going to be about is that I'll introduce various points of interest around my life, hot goings-on, places where I mope and drink; followed by different pieces of multimedia I picked up along the way.
I could say it's a constant review of my life and the things in between. Think of it as an induction of anything and everything I see, of people, places and such.

Hence the 'Welcome to...' part, I'll be introducing various things in a roundabout way. 'Welcome to my shitty sanctuary', which is a total mess of a bedroom or 'Welcome to Cahoots', which is a total mess of a bar, etc and so forth. The reason why I'm writing this is because I need to refine my writing skills, I live an interesting enough life, so I have plenty of material to use. By order of my dissertation tutor, any journalist worth his salt should have a blog for showcase purposes, along with building up an audience.

Here is an example, I live with an ex-ganglord and a immigrant from the Czech Republic who has an attitude problem. Both are unhappily in a relationship together, sustaining each other with weed, anger, paranoia and the occasional romantic dinner. It's like a fucked up sitcom in here, with me being both a Jeremy Kyle/nervous child figure. On the upside, I have a place to live away from my family so they can live in peace. I have the occasional deals on party drugs and exported cigarettes, followed by a bedroom which I can lock myself in should the King of Hangovers pays a visit. On the downside, well, let's just say I gotta develop some tactfulness, keep my head down should an argument arise and learn how to dodge kitchen knives. At least I know how to develop a neutral stance in any situation, a boon for journalists. And the knife dodging skills should come in handy if I were get into wartime reporting/cuisine reviews.

Welp, that's the intro. I'll be updating this every Monday, the more you read, the more you'll get to know me,  the people around me, the bars I frequent and the nonsense that goes on in such locations. Wish I knew a better way to conclude, but all I have is this picture I drew in MS Paint. Ugh, this word/picture placement is almost heretical on a web design point of view.
