Hello hello, So my life as a lazy uni student on holidays has ended, and as of today, I've reverted back to just being a lazy uni student. Well, maybe I'm not actually *that* lazy, since I bothered to turn up to a 9am lecture on a Monday morning on the first day of classes. So that has to count for something. Nevertheless, it surely has to be slightly better than working in an office job..although, with my current brainless job in a supermarket and working on weekends to actually pay for things, a decent job wouldn't be too bad. I can see my three hour breaks being used for the sole purpose of procrastinatory activities - oh the temptation, good record stores are a 10 minute walk away! On the upside, I get to make videos this semester. And I'm also seeing The Breeders on Sunday. Yay! On the downside, no valentines present has yet arrived for me, despite mine reaching the Perth part of Australia in good time. Boo hiss. I am certain that the mailman conspires against me - once, a mixtape from Sweden took seven months to land in my mailbox. Seven months! Another time a mixtape was sent back to me because the address had washed off. I suspect those conspiring postmen spilt their beer on it...or I shouldn't have written the address in texta. I blame the posties. It's raining outside, and I think it's going to keep raining for the next few days. The best thing about rain is sitting on a train, by a window, either reading or sleeping or looking out, listening to records. Last semester, when I bought 'Tigermilk', it had permanent residence in my discman and hence, helped me survive the semester. I think I'll employ it again this year. Amazingly, today I didn't fall asleep on the train, but tomorrow might be a different story... Oh good, Australia is doing well in the cricket...hmmm well actually, how could we not??? xox Alex p.s. I would just like to declare that Astrid is great, and so are Christine and Elizabeth. Yay! ========================================= The best looking boys are taken The best looking girls are staying inside http://www.geocities.com/veruca_salt_97/ http://darlingalex.diaryland.com/ _________________________________________________________________ MSN Instant Messenger now available on Australian mobile phones.
