DaAA da da daaaaaaaaa da daaaaaaa!





Due to unprecedented demand this blog has reopened for business.





Ahem, well, it has been a while hasn't it? Don't the days just slip past when you are having fun, then the weeks and months and so on and so forth. So here we are, approximately 4/5 months later... my my haven't we all grown (though not in vertical terms much to my dismay, i think i shall have to give up hope on that).



First things first - HAPPY BIRTHDAY Leila! and all the other birthdays i have missed including my own. So happy birthday me. Thankyou to all who came to my party. a rather nice affair in the surrounds of Sushi Wushi followed by the Lane (who knew Eltham could hide a cute little bar in an alley - I didn't even know Eltham had little alley ways). The next morning i did, as promised, eat plum jam, read a book about getting old and wearing purple, put on handmade chinese shoes, wear a rather nice skirt, eat chocolate and read the little prince (in english! it feels like cheating - but i loved it anyway).





oh soooooo much has happened - but unfortunately all of my photos are spread out between my computers, not to mention my memories. I am definitely getting old - as almost all my birthday cards have mentioned this fact - thankyou friends! haha. This year I am not only keeping a l;ist of all the books I read, but the movies i watch too, and as i am studying surrealist cinema this semester it includes some pretty wacky films so far - if you ever see a copy of Naked Lunch then watch it, i guarantee there are no naked lunches in it (though there is nakedness, and also perhaps some lunch, they are not combined - though i know that after Where the truth lies i will never be trusted again, and now that i think about it, i doubt that Naked Lunch will be the film to salvage my reputation).





Oh before i forget - i can drive! it's a bit of a miracle, but now i can (just haha) with my faithful clementine, i often sit in the drivers seat, imagining that i'm wearing long gloves and sing "oh my darrling, oh my darllling oh my daarrrling clementine" - don't laugh, I do. However now that i can drive i have to find car parks at eltham station, not a task for the faint hearted. I have discovered the wondrous 5 hour car park near the tennis courts, but, alas, 5 hours is all too brief with my horrible uni schedule so i am on the search for a new area to conquer. Any suggestions would be gratefully received.


Well more shall come soon - I promise you!photos, when I find them, anecdotes when I remember them, poems when i read them, thoughts when i think them, essays when i write them - but no! i will not subect you to my essays however much in love with them i am, i am not so cruel.

Currently Reading: The Tree in Changing Light (Roger McDonald), What Maisie Knew (Henry James), Daisy Miller (Henry James), Albion (Peter Ackroyd), Ulysses (hahaha)

So adieu!
