hey kidz, i was getting post withdrawl so i thought i'd send you all happy monday wishes to greet the beginning of another week in which i fully intend to get up during the morning every single day. i successfully achieved this somewhat unnatural feat last week and couldn't believe how much better i felt for it. this morning i even got up early and sat watching the olympics which i am compleeeetely obsessed with, today's athletics being particularly exciting as we actually have some medal hopes. so a sinister big up nuff respect goes out to all the competitors (especially the british ones). but did anyone see the guy who won gold on the gymnastic rings thingies?? good lord!! i just don't understand how anyone can do that. oh and before i forget, props are also due to the commentating team who have seemingly been staying awake all day and all night just to anchor the olympic coverage (i don't know if this is the case for other countries, but the bbc team have certainly been overdosing on caffeine). i have been dogged with illness though, as the other morning i woke up, having suffered some kind of allergic reaction, with my face swollen into a huge balloon-esque affair. i'm ok now, but it did make me feel less than confident which in turn has led me to discover a remedy for lack of confidence, namely buying a hair magazine and trying styles out on myself and making them look better than in the pictures. so today i am sporting a dramatic diagonal parting and flicks all round and i feel g!r!a!t!e! i'm sure i saw a boy in my logic lecture on friday with upside down b+s badges attached to his bag, my eyes may have been deceiving me, but if you are said maths student at manchester university email me and i will say hello (i'm that slightly scary looking girl who always sits on her own near the back) and while i'm on the subject, if chris_t_opher has sorted out pooter access at uni you email me again too and i'll finally meet you. on the jeepy forum there is some talk of a meetup in manchester at the star and garter this saturday, i am well up for meeting some cool kids and i'm sure we can extend it to a sini-meet although i'm not too pleased about the venue as certain people close to me are barred from going. but if anyone wants to join in / has suggestions look on the meetupos bit on the forum or mail me or something and someone will finalise details. last week, i decided that this year i really would write for our uni newspaper, after all you get free gig tickets and records and stuff, so i plucked up the courage to go along to the first meeting. to my horror i realised that i had at some time, managed to offend or abuse just about everyone involved with the music section (mostly when i was drunk) and so i hung my head in shame and scuttled out of the room. .... if any of the aforementioned people ar reading this, as i know some have been on the list in the past, i really am sorry.... never have i been so embarassed and never before did i understand why it was bad to get drunk and do stoopid things, but now i see the error of my ways and i'll make sure i always have someone on hand to restrain me when i'm in a room with cheap vodk despite this, now i'm in the mood for writing, so my assosciate / bloke and i are starting our own fanzine type thing. however what i gain in enthusiasm i lack in inspiration, so if anyone has any ideas or anything pleeeeease help me. thanks. seem to have spent this post just asking people to do stuff for me, but i just didn't have anything constructive to say about the beatles, lloyd cole or whatever else is being discussed just now. guess i'll just have to think of something controversial to say next time. well, it's still nice to be back, love and irn-bru, fiona 'i can see the grass grow' roy wood - genius ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ in praise of urusei yatsura:- http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/wrappedinfakefur ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
