A year has passed!

Damn! It's been nearly a year since I looked at this blog, and as much as I would like to delete all the previous posts and start fresh, I'm not going to do that. It's good keeping some past posts - even though they sound really bad, naive and most are unfinished. This one too, will probably end up unfinished or maybe I'll finish it for once since I have nothing better to do (at least for the next hour or so). I'll just put some Adele songs on and spill out whatever is going on in my head. Since finishing my uni exams, I've been working my butt off in David Lloyd's cafe in Kensington, serving coffee and food to women with several collagen lip injections and protein shakes to hulk look-alike men. That is all for £5.95 per hour, drastically blistered toes and cracked hills. But then again, I'd rather do that and earn money for holidays rather than sit at home. As a summer job, it will do. I get to make myself fruit juices, drink only freshly squeezed orange juice, and eat as much as I want. I stopped all the coffee after exams, I think the black coffee took its toll on my teeth, and now I don't really have to be awake and alert - no more legislations, statutes, Acts or whatever else there is, has to be remembered. I can enjoy normal novels from now on until late September. I don't even think it matters whether the novel is well written or not. However shit it is, I will still enjoy it. The last novel I read was last year on holiday in Rhodes and it was probably "An Education" by Lynn Barber. This year I've finished exams early so I already got through "One Day" by David Nicholls and now I'm nearly done with "The Chosen Once" by Sam Bourne, the next in line will be "The Room" by Emma Donoghue. I think that even with these three books, I'm giving myself some variety (but I do need to pick a classic book!).

I think that's it for this evening!

Uni :)

With a huge cup of tea, glasses on and my feet up (after walking from Canterbury back to uni - lets not be surprised) I can chill out in my room, at least for the time being, before I'll get hungry, go out, or get a knock on my door. Yesterday I've met some amazing people and it was only the first night, I hope this trend will continue on. I managed to get my internet working in my room - which was a miracle in itself - I was on the verge of crying and giving up. Nowwww the room is getting hot because I even turned the heating on, so after a long cold night out I can come back to a warm room - unlike yesterday.
This post is taking me ages to write because I am running around like a headless chicken. I keep coming back to it and everytime I do that I keep losing track of things and thoughts. I think I'm just going to forget about it.

People who invented the optical trackpad on Blackberry should go to hell

Just got the new Maroon 5 album "Hands All Over" - what on earth happened to them ? I didn't have the chance to listen to the whole album yet, but I mean judging the brief snippets of random songs are enough for me to know that Maroon 5 will never ever repeat the soothing sounds and the meaningful lyrics of their first album "Songs About Jane". The Script's new album "Science&Faith" came out a few days ago and I mean their songs didn't get that bad at all. I was surprised and found myself listening to it a lot (on repeat!). Jeez, Maroon 5 ?!!!! Where did the rhythms of the song "Shiver" disappear, along with the fierce lyrics of "Harder to Breathe" ? Maybe I'll warm up to their new album, we'll see.
On a completely different note, coming back from Victoria at night and walking towards my house was terrifying - I was afraid of my own shadow. To make it worse as soon as I came to the front door there was something lurking in the shadow, not afraid of me ! I thought it was a fox but thankfully it came out to be the neighbours cat. Who knows what these hungry foxes can do these days ? I'm planning to live. I sound a bit paranoid now oopsssieee.
Ooo and people who invented the optical mouse on a blackberry curve should die and rot in hell for that idea. I need to restart my blackberry few times a day to make that posh little optical shit work. If I didn't spend so much money on the blackberry I would lose patience with it and end up pressing the middle button so hard from anger that it would get stuck inside the phone. Now I have a huge smile on my face just by thinking about it. Ah sweet blackberry.

PS: Maroon 5 is currently playing on my itunes and it just gets worse and worse.

Get it together

I'm slowly losing my patience with things. Yuppp ... all I can see in my future apart from working my butt off whilst studying law (that is not something I would complain about though) is getting signed up for anger management. Today, just this evening, I think I completely lost it. I'm fuming with anger at the moment. Its actually pathetic. In times like this you just gotta say - tomorrow is another day and just fuck it - live on. I no longer see a point of relying on someone. Now where is all this bitterness coming from ? and where did it all begin ?

Beautiful Monster ?

Walking down to Clapham I was listening to the radio on my ipod and Ne-Yo's song "Beautiful Monster" came on. It was not new to me, but I just couldn't help smiling at it. What a contradiction, a beautiful monster ? Ahaha. Even when I switched between the radio station's from Capital FM to Kiss - they had exactly the same song on, at the same time! Thank god for Magic - that was the next station saved on my ipod and was filled with some good old cheesy classics. About 15 mins ago I made the effort to actually look up the beautiful monster on YouTube. Impressive dancing, freaky silver eyes, and what I assumed to be the beautiful monster looked like an aged porn star. Ahhhhhhh

London

It's been ages since I wrote anything here! I've been attempting to post something for months, I had it all in my head but every time I actually opened up blogger it was a 'no can do'.
Today I found one article from The Times "Starbucks, summers and other unlikely reasons to love Britain" in my drawer and I knew exactly why I saved it. Since I can remember people were always telling me "Ohhh I hate London" "the weather is crap" "people have attitudes" and I always thought the exact opposite. I see nothing wrong with London. Yes, I did have some unpleasant experiences here with people but at the end of the day - who gives a crap?
This just reminds me, the other day I was walking down to Junction and some boys (you can't call them men, even though their age places them in that category) said "Excuse me, EXCUSE ME - you dropped something hun" and when I turned, they just laughed in my face. I actually felt sorry for them, especially for the gelled haired girl who had a small baby in her hands. How can she even smile at their cheap jokes and hang around with people like that? I guess she is just the same, its a shame the baby will be brought up in that atmosphere.

Starbucks, summers and other unlikely reasons to love Britain: (according to the guy who wrote the article and meeee)

1. Walking
2. Starbucks - unlike the author I wouldn't know (yet!) how Starbucks tastes in America (he's saying that the food and the coffee tastes better in the British Starbucks) and I'm not so much into the "I'm walking with a Starbucks plastic cup, with bed head hair and so I'm cool". The coffee is good, the place is good but not for showing off.
3. Banking
4. DVLA
5. Excuses
6. Drivers
7. Self-deprecation
8. Boots the Chemist - I prefer Superdrugs - always has the deals I need.
9. ID Cards
10. Summers - I even love the rain and the wind.

I'm going to miss London once I move to Uni in Kent in roughly three weeks, but then again Canterbury has its own charm and I'm sure as long as it's in Britain - I'll love it.
