blood red drapes, blue carpet.

I went to the Palm Sunday mass [on a Saturday, I know, but we got first dibs on palm pieces], they brought in a huge wooden cross. I whispered to my mother [in bad taste, of course] "I'd like one for my birthday please." She responded, in equally bad taste, "Yeah, so I can crucify you and purge the house of its uncleanliness."

I also sat next to a prepubescent guy who sang badly and made it worse by, well, making it worse and singing different octaves and laughing the whole way through. And some evil guy [with cute hair] laughed when I dipped my finger in sand instead of holy water by accident. Such is life.

Courtney Taylor Taylor's hair really does not suit him. A mohawk on an anorexic guy is a big no-no. But he can still do that grin. Oh yes he can...

shrugs and uncertain smiles

I am disappointed to see that Ramona cleared her journal.

I am disappointed that my dreams are sometimes so beautiful I cry when I wake up.

I am disappointed in myself and my lack of motivation, determination and courage.

And that is all. Goodnight. I trust you are all well.

whoosh

+ Easter Egg hunt at school today, found much more than my share.

+ Marc made funny but slack comments in drama. Wow, Marc could actually be intelligent...[just joking darling].

+ The Radiohead website is way too entertaining.

+ We have a new printer, it's a laser one and prints like crazy, it just whooshes out.

+ Must finish script... or mother will kill me.

+ I went around handing people random lyrics. It was fun and stupid, but pointless things amuse me.

[Possibly] The soundtrack that would have cost the most if we bought the rights for a five minute film [Choc Chip Nuffin']
1. Coffee and TV {Blur}
2. Song 2 {Blur}
3. Fell in Love with a Girl {White Stripes}
4. Walking Alone {Green Day}

Can't remember the rest, and I don't know whether Angela still has Choc Chip Nuffin' or if it's buried under a lot of clothes and books. However, buy it if it ever comes to a store near you. The outtakes are longer than the film itself, but oh well who gives a flying f. At least muffins with Sesame Street eyes and toothpick hair running around on the end of skewers and yabbing are cute.

I think my sister's sick of me pinching her cheeks and going "oh you're so key-ute!" every ten seconds. About time too.

penny lane is in my ears and in my eyes...

So the "throat infection" turned into "influenza" then into "bronchitis" so now I'm trying to get "the pus out of the cracks in my lungs" [all quotes courtesy of mum].

If I had to put 3 things into a time capsule of the 20th century (and if i was a Miss USA contestant), I would put:

  • A copy of the novel 1984 to show what the world could have become, but didn't due to the true kindness of humanity.

  • A nulclear reactor (ok, a huge time capsule) because nuclear energy has shaped so much of our world, through the bombs and medicine and energy supplying.

  • A record of all the achievements in space (yeah I know the moon landing was a hoax), to show that we look to the future.


How beautiful was that (and fake, but who cares, we are beauty queens, darlings).

So continuing with this "Miss USA" competition...

Must women become mothers to be fulfilled as a 'whole woman'?

pretty little homes...

I finished reading Ulysses by James Joyce today. 900 and something pages. *breathes* I'm proud...but strangely enough I feel like re-reading it. Which will be hell again.

My life is full of drama.

Inspired from Miss USA...

IF you were to make a time capsule of the twentieth century, what would you put in it?

(and if you say "a cell phone, makeup and a computer," I shall be forced to kill you.)
