phew. i've been waiting with eager anticipation for *weeks* now for exceptance into the wierd and wonderful world of sinister. i had all of these really cool things to say about all the debates that have been going on. but now that i've been "given my voice", i also seem to have "lost it", in the sense that i can't think of anything witty which might endear me to you. because i'm *so* desperate to be liked that my palms are sweating and my brain is hurting. only *i* could get embarrassed over the net. <blush> okeedoke. my names sophie, ive got my first a level exam tommorow. eek. should really be revising about injection moulding for my design exam. im a bit sad about leaving school. after years of being confined to the solitary corner of the diner hall with my marmite and alf-alfa sandwiches i'm only just starting to enjoy the idea of being a teenage freak. and other people are only just starting to except me as a person, not a geek. the other day, however, i did read someone's nomination form for our leaving ball prizes. someone had created a catorgary just for me: most wanna-be indie person: sophie. i wasn't insulted. the person who wrote it quotes oasis, ocs and the stereophonics as their favourite bands. and don't you just HATE the word 'indie'. i don't quite know what makes me a 'wanna-be'. well, i hope i can be excepted into the land of sinister. i used to be quite a big part of another mailing list/fandom but as the band got bigger, things got far too bitchy and so i left. like if you haven't slept with the lead singer and haven't got the first single ltd release on vinyl then you're not a *true* fan. i like the sound of sinister tho. the word twee comes to mind............................hehe! only joking! and about the nme thang: i suggest we all email angst tonite to ask whether or not that tony robinson who did last weeks angst is gay simon from eastenders or not. love sophie xxx +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
