I am tired. This heat is driving me slightly crazy, and I've got a journey to Harlow to make Well, I am seeing my young lady, so if I do die, at least it'll be in her arms I'm romantic that way

Also seeing Superman Returns tonight - cannot wait!



Also, a picture of one of the most beautiful things I've seen in the world. Enjoy!

Okay, I beg of you all. Buy THIS album.



Its one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard in the world, ever. I love it. Listen, and I dare you not to contemplate love and life.

Again, I leave it ages for my next entry.

I'm currently at home (Hertfordshire home) since the Uni term has ended and I was forced to move out of my flat for a while - so I'm at home for some R&R. I also had to come back for my other granny's funeral on Tuesday - my maternal grandmother, my paternal one died just over a month and a half ago now.

She had a good send off

Other than work, I'm not up to much. Playing Broken Sword out of sheer frustration, because since I no longer work at Wetherspoons I cannot earn and I have £100+ in the whole world at the moment. So I have to save it. In the hope the union might give me a job, I wait by the phone.

Going to see Regina Spektor perform tonight. Don't know much about her, other than that my girlfriend adores her. I'm not really going for the music - given a choice of going on my own, I probably wouldn't go and see her but Claire really wants me to come and therefore I want to go

GRONK.

Love all the girls, natch. Unfortunately my life keeps me away from SG a lot...

Wow, what with my exams I forgot to post here! Well, EXAM rather than the plural. Still, didn't go too bad. I think.

Not much has happened in my lfie recently; I hada very boring training day with Wetherspoons yesterday, and I've got Greek literature to translate for a portfolio Shite.

Other than that, my mood is generally good Girls still as awesome as ever! Also, doing a short film competition - MY DEBUT!

Oh yes and X-Men 3: Good, but too many characters and not long enough, really. Too trimmed. Oh yes, and Vinnie Jones...

JUGGA-NAUT - Good god, no....

I have to write this before I go to sleep, or I won't be able to sleep.

Okay.

My housemates are REALLY, REALLY, REALLY starting to piss me off. Me and James are bending over backwards to make them happy, but no matter what we do we just can't please them. Today, was the final straw. We got a note telling us how inconsiderate we were for not cleaning out their rubbish. Yes, THEIR rubbish - not as in the communal rubbish, but the rubbish in their rooms.

HOW IS THIS OUR RESPONSIBILITY?!!!

If they forget to take their own bins out and dump them in a black bin bag, its their responsibility as I would expect it to be mine. The note also said how we hadn't thrown out the bathroom bins (fair point - hardly a sanitary disaster, but fair enough that we forgot) and also that we didn't put a new bin bag on the bin. This would be a fair point for me, if it weren't for the fact we had to go to work and literally only just had time to dump the bin bags.

I'm getting really wound up and upset. This sort of thing has been going on for weeks, and I've been absolutely tear-assing my way through my chores in order to make them happy. But no, its never fucking enough.

I'm also in my exam period, as well as them. They can't sit there and fire off random bullshit about us stressing THEM out. It's driving me insane and I'm fucked off.

Favourite lyrics of the moment, 'Three Second Memory' by Lee Evans

Gotta 3 second memory
I live for now and not what is or isn't to be
Yeah thats me
I gotta 3 second memory
Whatever you tell me...
Oh it's gone in 3...c'est la vie

Well I never get the feeling
There's anything that i'm missing
I'm way too busy living my life
It's such a strife

I don't try to think about
The ins or the outs
I'm way to busy trying to figure out the here and now
Whats that all about?

If I gotta choose
I get all confused
Havn't got a clue
Of anything that's new
Or who the hell is who

If I gotta choose
I get all bemused
the moment I loose... ohhhh
The time to just muse
Just be amused

I never get the feeling
There's anything that i'm missing
I'm way too busy living my life
Life such a strife

I don't try to think about
The ins or the outs
I'm way to busy trying to figure out the here and now
Whats that all about?

I got no plans
For my life span
Whenever I can
Yeah I flim and I flam
Yeah that's ying and a yang

I got no plans
'cus I don't understand
Whenever I can
ohhh I sing a song that I sang
The one I just began

I never get the feeling
There's anything that i'm missing
I'm way too busy living my life
It's such a strife

I don't try to think about
The ins or the outs
I'm way too busy trying to figure out the here and now
Oh whats that all about?

Do be doo
Do do do do dooo... ohhh
Do be do
Do be do be dooo... ohhh

I never get the feeling
There's anything that i'm missing
I'm way too busy living my life
Life is such a strife

I don't try to think about
The ins or the outs
I'm way too busy trying to figure out the here and now
Yeah, whats that all about?

Do be doo
Do do do do dooo
Do be do
Do be do be dooo
La la la la la la

Awesomez

Okay, I am starting to get slightly angsty about my housemates. Maybe I’m getting paranoid, but I’m getting the impression that they’re taking their exam stress out on James and me (James being the other male housemate). To be fair, James has been somewhat slobby lately; leave a dirty baking tray and pan in the oven do not count as his greatest achievements. However, it is all leaving me a little on edge. I’ve been bending over backwards this term to make the girls happy, but I swear they’re still finding something to nail me for. Maybe it’s just me. We have a house meeting scheduled for this weekend, and I’m NOT looking forward to it. Bah….

Nearly a month since my last update!

Still loving SG, I suppose I need to involve myself in the groups more! Sorry, stuff happening in my life!

Well, for a start, new girlfriend Incredibly lovely girl whom I happen to adore Thing is, this is a girl I once had a fling with - but we chose to be friends. Not something that went down very well with my ex-girlfriend when I told her I was dating again last night. I hate saying insensitive things like 'you have to live with it', but there's not much else I can say. I didn't jump into things, and we were not planning to get together. It just happened. Christ, my previous posts here should point out that I was crushing on various women before all that...

Anyway, I'm feeling much better about my life

Probab;y just as well, what with everything getting a bit funny at the moment. My grandmother died a few days ago, and we have a funeral scheduled for May 4th. So not good.

Well, I have a lecture today so soon I have to dash - but the MA is going fine, I'm going to have do some deduction today and work out what coin photos i need for my bibliography...and you're nodding off already, so I'll stop there

Will post on people's journals soon! Love y'all!

Okay, I'll try and do a non emo post:

Well, I'm okay All appears well, my essay is progressing nicely - although I foresee trips to the library next week to get photocopies in the name of my coinage essay (yet to be handed in). So I am able to take time out to play World of Warcraft, a complete attention drainer. I'm level 14 now! Okay, so still low - but I'm working on it. The Bonesplitter Valley is a bastard *shakes fist* But I'll see it through!

Installing Silent Hill 3 as we speak. Hmm, wonder if it'll be good. *shrugs* Won't know until I try!

Oh yes, and I'm posting my horror story blurb here - tell me if you think it sounds good:

HALLOW'S END by Mark Odell

'Michael Sandon, griefstricken after the death of his wife and daughter in a car crash, is told to take a break. He hopes a short holiday in the town of Hallow's End will ease his pain and his constant insomnia. At the same time, Katherine Keider arrives in town, similarly traumatised by the suicide of her husband several months ago, but pregnant with a child...of whom the father is unknown. The two souls meet, and together find out the truth of Hallow's End, and find themselves pursued by the Laughing Man, a monstrous killer intent on finding them and exacting pain on them. They soon find themselves lost in a world of torment, a world where your nightmares become reality, where your soul is tortured beyond pain and where the innocent are punished.

Everyone goes to Hallow's End eventually.'

Good?

Well, here I am again!

Ex-girlfriend asking me for relationship advice with her new 'guy'. Girl I had the hots for going out with a friend of mine. Every entry on SG at the moment is about how great everyone's sex lives are. So yeah, I'm feeling a little....meh.

Guess I'm being really selfish, huh? I'm usually fine. I've had a decent week, with strikingly non-emo days. But for some reason today...gah, I dunno. I just seem to be getting all the 'hey, check out my hot boyfriend' stuff from girls today.

People at work are trying to matchmake me with one of the new barmaids. Which will probably end as it usually does; with her having a boyfriend and me feeling ineffably embarassed about the whole thing.

OH AND BLOODY HELL DAMNATION

My new Playstation 1 is fine, but the copy of FFVII...THE SECOND DISC DOESN'T WORK!!! Emailed the guy, but says I had plenty of time to notice sooner. Which pisses me off; who checks disc 2 of a game they buy? If disc 1 works USUALLY it is assumed that Disc 2 works too!! So that kind of added to my day. Gah

And I am proud of who I am and what I do, I just find it frustrating that all the girls I meet have no interest in what I do

EDIT: Feeling considerably happier after watching a clip from the muppets Swedish Chef

'Chicky in di basket! Here di Chicky! Und overrr hurr, di basket!'
