Sunny Sunderland!

Hey People,

Well what a nice few days we've being having in Sunderland lately, not only is it hot but its the first time people have had the chance to truly lap up some of the first rays of the Summer. So what else better to do yesterday than go to Seaburn and have a laugh with some of your mates.

First although the night before I went to see The Hangover and what a film it isoh my god some of the quotes from Alan will truly stick with me forever loved it so much... But any way Seaburn was awesome! Me, Kat, Martin and Rob met up and went to Morrisons to get some booze for the beach and then had Fish and Chips at the best place ever , Queens Cafe.
My dear lord I love the Fish and Chips their, I could eat them till I die haha but that would mean I ould have a BMI of a whale and never leave my bedroom haha!

Then we went onto Seaburn Beach and it was lovely but my god people take the sun so seriously up here! It was only 17 degrees but girls were in bikinis and lads were in shorts crazy! lol!
But after a few cans we never thought that we would see what we were going to see, which was a huge dog fight between a Greyhound and a Rottweiler, It was savage the Greyhound though was the instigator all it was doing was running uo to random dogs and barking at people it was seriously a fucked up dog!

Then the Rottweiler stood up for himself/herself good times, but then after the owners went on at each other and stated having a massive fight with each other it was sooo random but they were probably gypsies or something!
But then a Police Community Service Woman came and then I am not kidding three police cars came and around 10 coppers were their you would think that someone was murdered!!!

God...

well this week im going to get my SRA Award entries in and then get BBC Leeds to arrange a meeting, so I will be back Blogging soon but keep following me on twitter (www.twitter.com/rtmitchell88)!

Stay Safe

Orthodonist Appointments! Why So Shit!

Hey Blog,

Well yesterday I went to the Orthodontist to get my retainer tightened to push one of my teeth up but what a wasteful trip! This is because every time I have to go to the Orthodontist I have to go all the way to Leeds from Sunderland! This means a 30 minute metro ride to Newcastle then another hour and forty five minute journey to Leeds all of which costing 35quid!!!!

Times aren't good for me and after this I think all I have in my pocket is £15 quid BAD TIMES! This is what pissed me off the most though as I got off the train at 14:55pm I then got on the free bus to get to the Dental Hospital for 3:15pm.... got their had my appointment and took 15minutes! Then got on the train back home straight after so basically I had just waster £35 on going to Leeds for around 45minutes! Its an absolute joke! I've asked numerous times 'could I go to the Dental Hospital in Newcastle?' but all they answer is no because technically your still our patient!

But I know why they keep me on in Leeds and that's because the people patching my teeth together are trainee dentists! So as im an past surgical patient who had Jaw Renlignment surgery this would be good to see from a trainee point of view but is costing me shit loads of money for them to see my misfortune of having to go through a life threatening procedure!

ABSOLUTE JOKE!

But on a plus note when I got home Kat had made me Chilli con Carne and jacket potato mmmm! Loved it then watched TV and planned what to do for my Birthday!

But today Im going to go see Transformers can't wait! Going to be staring at the screen like a kid watching TV. Then im going to chill out for the rest of the night and enjoy my weekend.

On a radio note, I managed to get two weeks placement at Total Rock Radio (www.totalrock.com), in which i'l be helping them with producing and presenting throughout which should be good fun becasue they interview a lot of top notch bands and may see if I can tag along for a few!

But now although its 11:45am and I am going to finish watching Harpers Island! Love this show!! I wonder whos going to be killed this week oooooo!

Over and Out

First Blog!

Hey Guys,

Well this is my first blog and I wanted in some way to have something to look back on for my year of University and to have a record of what I did whilst trying to get a career.

So firstly; My name is Ross Mitchell, im 20 years old (3 weeks until im 21) and I am doing a BA HONS in TV and Radio Production and I want to a career in the Radio after University.

I have a show on Utopia FM (Now recently called Spark), in which Me and mate Mark play the best in Pop Punk and Metal. Also we get interviews by bands and love to meet new people in the industry.

I like to listen to loads of different music, and I am a big fan of sport Leeds Rhinos all the way. I grew up with Rugby with my Granddad being a professional Rugby League and playing for Great Britain and playing on Wembley!

So after this I will be posting many random things from my moods, thoughts and also my diary of Spark FMs relaunch!
