Before I start my actual post, I'd just like to clear a few things up. Firstly, I thought this blog was to document our 'adventurous forays into the world of book writing' (yay! quoting myself!) but Philosopher said, and I don't quote, that it was just to write about our lives and our itchy-witchy writing fingers. So I guess her definition makes more sense, however I might try to focus on writing stuff. Also, I never really noticed that much, but Philosopher's writing style is dramatically different to mine.I mean I've always known, but her post is so darn poetical compared to my rosy-prosy one. I've decided it's good as you will never get us confuzzled. That's all, now enjoy my actual post:
I don't really know what to write but I don't want to bore you, which is what my colleague has insinuated in her post, so I decided that I would use this post as a place to just put general ramblings. A 'sketch dump' in artistic terms. Lets'a go Mario:
Awkwardness in my life: Today I was standing on the bus, just before my stop. I picked up my bag and was putting it on my back, which required letting go of the pole for one second. Unfortunately the bus driver chose exactly this moment to pull up, meaning I fell on top of the lady next to me, had to grab the pole and ended up swinging around it, into a man sitting down. I then had to grab my bag, actually put it on this time and walk casually off the bus. While this may seem like a fairly unusual event, I regularly fall over on the bus, either onto someone or even off the bus. Every morning I get squashed against some adult sitting down, while hundreds of school boys squish past me on my other side. Public buses are just awkward.
Musical Epiphanies:
I love music. I listen to music that few people my age have ever heard of, let alone appreciate. Philosopher will definitely agree with me, as she has accused me of "being into wackjob indie music that no one else has ever heard of." She did, however, very kindly allow me to chose our Protagonist's favourite musos. Now that you know the introduction allow me to share two musical revelations I have had this week. Now, they're very obvious concepts that I have just somehow managed to miss. I feel very silly sharing this but you won't judge me.... will you? Neither of my revelations relate to particularly esoteric music:
Official Musical Epiphany Number One is that the Muse song "Eurasia" is about Europe and Asia. The shock! The Horror! The feeling of being a genius and then realising that it's actually glaringly obvious! I've owned this song for well over a year, listening to it at least once a fortnight, and I've never realised. I have no idea how it totally escaped my notice but if it's also escaped yours, I've now enlightened you so you no longer feel mildly discombobulated whenever you listen to the song 'Eurasia'.
Official Musical Epiphany Number Two is the album 'Melon Collie and the Infinite Sadness' by the Smashing Pumpkins. I thought it was an awesome name, but a bit weird. I mean, what kind of a name is 'Melon Collie'? Jokes.... it's like melancholy.... the awkwardness....so basically the name is like sadness and the infinite sadness! I actually didn't realise this until I saw someone talking about the album on the book of faces.
So in conclusion, I'm pretty stupid sometimes. Oh well, maybe I'll just go listen to The Cure.
So thanks for reading :) I hope you enjoyed my 'write dump' and that you have lovely, sunshiny/rainy (whichever you prefer) day. Oh, also hello to the German viewer. You probably stumbled across our blog by accident but still. You're German therefore you're awesome. Ich liebe Dich, aber nicht im ein bizarre way. :)
As someone mildy famous once said: "Sleep tight, ya morons!"
