Woot

Mary-Kate will appear in 10/15 episodes of season 2 of Weeds as a devoted Christian girl and Silas' love interest.

When I was randomly reading stuff online (not very random,i read ONTD religiously) right, I happened to read about this rumour that Adam Brody was with a girl at the Coachella festival. NEW LOVE u say! yeah. So I had to find out who she was.
So I did a bit of research and found out that her name is Alexa Chung, host of UK music tv program Popworld. Former model-slash-actress-slash-vj. Go figure.
Was youtubing Popworld and found this recent video of her interviewing Maroon 5.
I love when my interests clash.
I google something and boom, I find a link to something else that I've been looking for or might interest me anyway. Like with Beth Ditto and the song that I was looking for.
Anyways, the interview isnt that great and she's a bit odd and annoying. But its definitely for the show.




also, fergie ferg's pretty funny in this one.

the men just dont get it.


In less than two weeks from now I'll be sitting for my first third year exam.
Thanks to my money and banking lecturer who kindly reminded us today in the review lecture that third year grades on the transcript are the only ones employers will give a shit about.
Thanks Olan.
I have absolutely no clue about half the things he talked about today. spot exchange,term structure of interest risks,frisch-slutsky theory was from first year macro?
I mean, I have a rough idea what they are but I wont be able to write 25 marks-worth intuitive answers.
I didnt dare raise my hand when he asked the room of us who was in his first year macro class.
If I did he might just fail me then and there, I wouldnt even have to sit for the exam.
I am going to fail this subject arent I?


Back to my main point, that is, I am not feeling well and I cant swim. If you catch my drift. which shun didnt, he thought that I just meant that I cant swim and assumed I was making a general assumption that girls cant swim and I cant because I am one. Confused? yeah, I was too.

I cant procrastinate anymoar!But I just cant do any studying now.Just cant.

Comfortable, so broken in

There were times when we weren't reticent in sharing not because we needed to communicate anything important, but simply because we drew veritable comfort from each other's voice.

Seriously disturbing.

I opened the door of the fridge and there they were, DouDou on one shelf, Jester lying in the lower compartment. Jester had his familiar gentle gaze on me but the smaller black one was curled up in a foetal position, her eyes shut. Then there was another dark figure one compartment above DouDou's. It wasnt moving either.
I closed the door, not daring to touch them to check because I knew they werent going to budge.
I couldnt bear to even try.
I shook myself and woke up, seriously disturbed by the unequivocally unsettling feeling I got from the bizaare dream.
Up until the second last sentence I had been wondering what was the other figure inside, given that I only had 2 dogs.

this is seriously funny.

I dont want to burn out in ten years and look back on the meaninglessness of my youth.
I want to share life with people who appreciate the goodness of life.
I need positivity, not lost causes.
Like yesterday. Everything went right.
Just simple joys. and thats all i ask for.

Lunch @ Corretto's with the Law toots.
Quiet dinner night in having delicious roast chicken salad.
Baking for friends that appreciate them.
Especially those that name my brownies myopias.I believe the name will stick...soon.
Playing violin duets and discussing nutella gelati.
Or like now, when my iTunes music is playing only for me while I type about my simpleton life in the library.

listening to: standing in the way of control


i finally found it.
the theme i heard in the skins promos.

The group's hit song "Standing in the Way of Control" was written by Ditto as a response to the United States government’s decision to deny gay people the right to marriage. “Nobody in the States was that surprised or shocked by what Bush did, but it made everyone I know feel helpless and cheated,” she has said. “I wrote the chorus to try and encourage people not to give up. It’s a scary time for civil rights, but I really believe the only way to survive is to stick together and keep fighting.”

so i did a little research on this indie rock band called The Gossip right, and found some interesting facts (well at least to me).

the woman i've seen in ONTD in several posts.

the lead vocalist of the band, Beth Ditto:
topped NME's cool list in 2006;
she's got like an interesting portfolio.
grew up in a bible-town in Arkansas where she was bullied for her weight and sexual orientation;
advocates gay rights;
her boyfriend was born a woman but transgendered and identifies as a man;
blasted kate moss and refused to play in Topshop because they didnt carry plus sized clothes;
she doesnt shave or wear deodorant because "punks usually stink".

listening to 'with love'.
say what u will but this song's tune is catchy enough to put anyone in a good mood and the overdose of teeny-bopper saccharine lyrics provide the best guilty pleasure.

okay.I'm very ashamed of myself.
