I've been listening to lots of random new things, like Bastille and Tom Odell, and I want lots of albums of people like Ben Howard.
My current favourite song is below. Its like sex in a song. They covered it on Glee - and even they made it come out sexy. Grunting girls is always sexy.
I want to start drinking coffee. As I type this, I've just finished my first cup of percolated caffeinated sugary goodness. (I will enjoy the taste one day!) I want to be one of those people who drinks something even if they don't like it. I don't know why. I force red bull on myself and now I love it, so this is going to work. It doesn't work with men (as much as Jasmine wishes it did, as she's mentally match-making me with everyone she knows).
I enjoyed being at uni today. I felt a bit like a student for once.
Walking home the other day I saw a bunch of kids sitting in the pub, all drinking coke, and I missed the fat cat, and uni. I missed the boys, our group, just going to the pub at lunch time, eating shit loads, chatting crap and not getting anything done but its fine - we were socialising. I'm really looking forward to seeing those friendly faces this weekend. (On that note, I also realised that the last time we were all together as a group was when uni finished, almost two years ago. Even graduation, Coates wasn't there.)
I've made an 'ideas wall' so I can shove any notes, pictures, articles, ANYTHING relating to Dali up there to help my dissertation. Plus any other ideas.
I've become re-obsessed with McFly. This is what happens when I'm alone too long - I find men to love one way or another. Read their book over christmas - actually surprising at times. Not the average story of teenage boys shooting to fame. Also like to watch Tom's Wedding Speech on YouTube on a regular basis just to have a wee blub at how incredibly cute it is. And I'm weirdly excited for their next album, due this spring I think. If only I had a friend as sad as me to go see them with...
Have been spending lots of time with the Howarths. Charlie is so cute, and every time I see him it reinforces my hope of having children one day. He calls me Dora (he also called a log 'dog' - thinking he has problems with 'l's).
Watching lots of Angel. Its so good. Why didn't I watch it when it came out?
I'm trying to make efforts to enjoy university - enjoy learning, enjoy the atmosphere. I'm becoming more confident with my classmates, which is a plus. I still get paranoid and fear that they think I'm a giant douche. But hey.
I don't have any money at the moment. Yet I bought jasmine dinner last night. And I bought Marc a bacon and cheese turnover today. 'Cos I'm a sucker for needy people - show me a hungover student and I open my bag of medicines, water and oranges. (Or just one orange).
I'm really glad that the snow has gone.
I'm thinking about my birthday. I can see the end of January, so am planning what happens 53 after that.
Set up my PlayStation yesterday and played some Tekken. Got PlayStation thumb. Still, I completed arcade in 'hard' (with Jin, of course). Tonight I may treat myself to FF8.
Shit, I still have Carlo's FF7 game. Oops.
Watching far too much comedy. HIMYM, BBT, New Girl, Girls, 2 Broke Girls... (lots of girls).
Want to get back into exercising, but I just can't get myself to the gym. Going to ask Mum for a treadmill for my birthday. And some new clothes.
I'm SO EXCITED about Sam coming home at Easter. I don't know how long she'll be back for, but it coincides with my birthday which is EXCELLENT and GOD I can't wait to see her. I'm definitely getting the first round of drinks in!
And... I'm done.
