Sinister: seven-to-eight-years-old, that's me

>has anyone ever felt like they are in a belle and sebastian song?  this
has only ever happened to me a few times and it is the most marvellous
feeling.   it usually happens at school when i feel like, on occasion, a
social reject with many problems.  but the last time was actually with jon
last friday after school.  we were in the botanical gardens and i was in my
school uniform which seemed to just fit.  it was all sunny and pretty and
we were on a slapper walk, spotting all the local school slappers, and i
felt removed from them, which was nice.  i could even ger an ink polaroid
out of that.   has anyone else?  



huh, I can beat that: me and my best friend have decided that one of our
friends (who shall remain nameless for fear of getting hit very hard with a
large blunt objet by said person) is actually....

Belle and Sebastian, 
in a secret and cunning disguise,  
or actually probably just Stuart Murdoch, because, apart from the fact that
she just is a very Belle-and-Sebastiany-type sweet and lovely person, she
also, as my best friend recently pointed out, speaks the way they do.  

Take, for examople that line: who needs boys when there's Lisa around? It's
just sooo her.   I mean,  IT'S HER I TELL YOU, IT'S HER.

>There aren't any songs that have that affect on me but I knew as soon as
I'd finished reading "Captain Correlli's Mandolin" that I had never read
anything so fantastic and that I could NEVER EVER read it again. I
always read books I love over and over but this was so intensely moving,
so vivid and glorious and yet tragic at the same time that I can't
imagine putting myself through the emotional mangle again. But I'm so
>glad to have read it once.

Um, Jude the Obscure, don't think i can ever read it again, or see the film
either...
But, song-wise, i can never, never, never listen to Black-Eyed Dog by Nick
Drake.  It just has to be the most horrific song ever written.  Does anyone
else (apart from me an' Steve Maconie) think so too?


alrighty,
byee
