Who am I?>
this is an insight into who i am and what i think. hopefully it's not going to be totally self-obsessed and pathetic. this isn't as private as my diary...that contains too much stuff not suitable for the human eye :) of course, it's by no where near finished, as i haven't actually written much here and only done some superficial things like links and adding images. as i'm a lazy student i have plenty of time on my hands (in between going to gigs, reading, drinking and sleeping!), i'll be adding more here soon! perhaps I should start by introducing myself...
Name: anonymity is cool
Where: infront of the computer, Nottingham, England
Likes: fitted jumpers (geek chic), emo/post hardcore/punk/hiphop, pete burns, left-wing politics, ross noble, fair trade, going to gigs, books, tony benn
Dislikes: hipsters (pretentious elitist people make me angry!), feet, being unhappy, shakespeare, margaret thatcher, george bush, meat, myself at times
Job: student...i don't know whether that can count as a vocation! i'm meant to be studying english literature, politics and communication studies, but the reality is that i don't turn up enough to be considered a valued member of the classes. i'm also a music journalist but that sounds pretentious, so i'll just say i get my work published
Miscellaneous: i have 11 piercings, i dye my hair black, i wish i was a bit taller, i've been a vegetarian for 9 years, i often meet bands (but not a groupie!), i appreciate life
music is a really important part of my life and i've always been into a diverse range of stuff. at the moment i am listening to... ~*~bluebird...still life (with moving parts)
~*~finch...stay with me.
~*~aphex twin...window licker.

Today, Sunday, 1st June 2003.....
i'm very confused. i don't want to tempt fate by saying anything about how things are going with m, i know that if i do...things will start to go wrong. i'm in a state of happiness, but it won't last. it never does. especially when i have five exams next week.
Sunday 26th May 2003.
just seen bluebird play a gig. fucking amazing! thanks to jim (bassist) for putting us on the guest-list. listen out for bluebird-they are a force not to be reckoned with! and wayne kramer (ex-mc5) does some cool shit on their new album, hot blood. don't miss it!Tuesday, 20th May 2003. not been on the computer in a while, as i accidently fucked it up with a million viruses...because i'd been downloading music, and unbeknownst (is that such a word!) to me downloaded some viruses aswell. i'm feeling slightly happier than i have previously been feeling, which is kind of strange really considering i have all my a-s exams coming up. the first is on friday, and it's a double english literature exam. i haven't studied the texts enough (because i'm a lazy cunt) therefore i will fail. oh well! been on a couple of dates with m. i don't want to jinx things by saying that it's going well, because then something crap will surely happen. he is intelligent and funny, not to mention gorgeous, so i just hope things go okay.
Monday, 12th May 2003. i've had another terrible day in a long line of shit days. and every day that passes is another day closer to my exams! i hate going through periods where every day just gets worse and you dislike yourself and other people more and more. it's so demoralising and annoying. i just want to be happy and for things to go well in all aspects of my life, but obviously that is too much to ask. i don't see contentment as being a selfish request though. i'm not in a good mood (obviously) because the lad that i like (let's call him M) told me something that one of his friends said about me (okay, here's some background about his 'group'. they are considered to be the 'cool alternative' people at my college, when in reality they are stuck up elitist wankers. they hate everything that they don't know, they assume that they're better than everyone and they think that they are intelligent. the funny thing is that they are not cool or even 'alternative'...they are fucking narrow minded cunts). what was said is pretty irrellevant, but when i met up with them out of college i was made to feel unwelcome by a few of them. oh and before i finish...it worries me that this is the kind of twat that m associates himself with. is he going to be like them? at the moment i'm angry so i'll say that i don't give a fuck. however, i know later on i'll get upset like i always do. i just feel the need to hide all of this emotion from other people because it scares me.

i'm feeling quite lately because life at home isn't going to well. okay that's an understatement, it is so bad that i want to move out and i really mean that! i know everyone argues with their family but it's happening every day and i just can't take it anymore. it's such a waste of life. it's been like this for a couple of months and has been gradually getting worse. it's really depressing because i used to like spending time at home occasionally, but now i try to be out of the house all the time. last night my parents totally flipped and were literally screaming at me and saying the worst possible stuff you could imagine. it's so degrading when they shout all this stuff that they don't like about you. i want to move out but don't have the means to do so. if i was rich then it would be alright because then i could afford a flat...no such fucking luck. sometimes i get so pissed off with life, because as soon as things start going well something really bad happens to turn it all around. lately, my social life has been great and i've met lots of nice blokes ;) i've been getting with this lad from college who is lovely and i felt so happy. i'd liked him for a few months but stuff has only recently started happening. the whole situation at home has made things difficult because i'm always in a horrible mood. however, in a pathetic attempt to be cheerful, i'm getting on better with my little sister and even coloured her hair a shade of purple today!

i'm 'studying' for my a-s levels at the moment...but feel totally fraudulent for using the word studying which is why it's in inverted commas. this is because i have lost the will (did i ever have it?) to learn and achieve. the only time i have any motivation is towards socialising, protesting and having a good time. i'll just blame my laziness on the crap system of a-s levels...the government should realise that we all hate it and that they should revert it back to the original 'a' level. fuck the government! in fact, this webpage (if i can call it that) is being made in my revision time. it's a shame i'm not studying computer technology or something like that because then i'd be okay.

YumPop.....another great (and retro!) distraction from exams!
i am absolutely pissed...but am still sad enough to come on the computer after a heavy night out. hmmm. what does that say about me?! |
