( The Subject is *almost* Mogwai's "a cheery wave from stranded youngsters". ) Well, I've been a voyer for about a week now, and what a lovely experience it's been. It's a right little community you've got here. Reading my mails makes my insides go all warm and woozy, like when you're a bit tipsy and you love everyone. The earth-shattering thing I "do", John Murtagh who was the one who asked, and the rest of you cuddly listees,is A Levels. I live in Cyprus at the moment, and if it weren't for my NME subscription and John Peel on British Forces radio who brought me Belle & Sebastian, my life would be a much emptier place - I fell in love with the band as soon as I heard Dog On Wheels. I can't wait to start University back in England later this yearand meet real live B&S fans, a creature so elusive in this part of the world that its existence is merely conjecture and speculation(apart from my brother). That's why you people make me feel so >bouncy< (thank you, whoever recently used that word, I can't remember who it was). I don't like to bleed you all dry of mail without making myself useful, so I'm going to suggest a thread. Bear with me for a minute, please... I recently met someone at a party who had the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen on a boy - deep blue with really dark lashes. So dark, in fact, that I suspected he was wearing mascara. The next time I saw him, at a club, alcohol and lust were giving blood a good fight for occupation of the greatest volume in my veins. (Oh alright then, I was drunk as a skunk and crazed with desire.) I went up to him and said(cringe) : "Were you wearing mascara the last time I saw you or are you always this gorgeous?" Every time I think of it I want to curl up in a corner whimpering. And so we come to the thread: Have any of you said/done anything as embarrassing as this in the presence of someone you fancy the batman pants off? If so, please share - you'll get knowing sympathy and understanding "you poor dear"-type soothing words (and maybe a few laughs, but not cruel ones, promise). Go on - you know we want you to. And so I've eased myself on to the Sinister list. My darlings it's the place to be. Love and snowflakes , Natasha ~*~ "What are days for?... They are to be happy in: Where can we live but days?"
