On my fifteenth birthday,I thought of making a wish before blowing the candles-like they did in books and in films. However, I couldn't think of something. A year passed. When I was sixteen,I did better.I wished that the world I imagined actually existed. Not in these words exactly but anyway... When I was seventeen, I wished that someday I'd get to live with strange people who listen to strange music. In those words exactly. When I was eighteen I was very angry with my mum and dad so there weren't any candles, or wishes. If I had had the chance, I would have wished for friends. I hardly had any. Sitting on the for of my new room, in my new house, between my (new) boyfriend and my best friend ,in front of a cake and nineteen candles at 4 am, I realise -quite suddenly-that my wishes have come true. I live with those two. The one adores The Tindersticks, the other Nick Cave. I feel both happiness and fear. So I wish that we're trying to do will work. A year later,my best friend gets more and more absorbed by himself. Doesn't talk much, however shouts over trivial matters (like the washing-up).We don't fight but don't talk either. His girlfriend, also a friend of mine in the past, hates me very,very obviously. As for Konstantin, things got from bad to worst, and then even worst...quite dramatically...and without any actual reasons...really...it's so sad... We're not together but then, we are not apart, as we're something like best friends, and more, and we still live together... My twentieth birthday was sad, and I wished that someday I'll have a house in Amsterdam... It's been two months since then. That's the best I can do to introduce myself. That's what I am. If it is of any importance, I live in Thessaloniki, Greece and I study history. I also work a little. There's nothing more... Apart from the love for Belle and Sebastian. Love, and keep the faith, Dimitra. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
