Writing a blog post because I have nothing else to do. Facebook and Tumblr are dead. I've tried everything; installed updates, troubleshooted, restarted, reconnected and disconnected... so, erm, here's a post! yay?! I've had a strange day. I slept from 9 this morning to 9 tonight, and I woke up thinking it was Sunday. It was strange. I wasn't even particularly tired, I'd just decided to stay in bed all day, because I couldn't think of anything better to do. I didn't eat for twenty four hours and felt completely fine. At 10 I went to the supermarket and got some bread and cold meat, which was really nice. I don't really like walking around by myself at night, especially when there are people everywhere; boys on skateboards, people out drinking... it was scary, but it worth getting home and having a sandwich, especially since I haven't eaten meat in weeks. So now I'm sitting in the lounge with Sam and Maria because I was hoping that the internet would be better where the modem is, but nope. So. This post has no real point. (The title of this post, by the way, is a song by The Strokes called Games. It's from the album Angles, which I really love).
Considering staying up all night again. Might as well, since I've only been up for four hours. I have the end of season 4 and all of season 5 of Lost on DVD to watch, so even if the internet stays down I have something to do... Okay, well this has been a massive waste of everyone's time. So I'll go now. Goodbye :)

Ahh, yes. Sorry about that last post. Boy troubles. I can't say what though. Meh.
I should be writing my essays because I have one due next Monday and one due next Friday, but I keep getting distracted. Uni will be over for the year in a few weeks, then I have an exam, and then it'll be the holidays, and I keep thinking about the summer and what I'm going to do and it's keeping me from concentrating on my work.
What if I didn't go back to uni next year? What if I got a flat and a job instead? Some of my friends are moving here next year so I won't be alone anymore, and so I don't want to leave the city, but I just don't feel up to another year of school. It's no use, anyway, because I'll just fail again and all I'll have to show for uni is a massive student loan.
Ahhh, so anyway. I should go. Essays to... think about. :)

Suuuunlight over me no maaaaatter what I do
did you listen to the song I linked in my last post? :-)
I bet you didn't :-)
hey I'm getting a haircut today! for the first time in 8-9 months. I found a place just down the terrace which will cut it for $40 which is twice as much as what I paid in Fielding but it's better than like $80 at Ralph Lauren so~
and hopefully that means they're decent hairdressers.
before my haircut (so at 10am when I deem it appropriate to leave my room) I'm going to go shopping (again!) because when I have money I insist on wasting it on clothes, books and DVDs instead of saving it. I need new clothes because I've put on weight yay and the full length jeans I bought in England barely fit me anymore. Whenever I wear them I get this horrible pain because they cut into my tummy. I wore them to the Dylan Moran gig and almost died on the way home. I actually had to undo the button :| So now I only have one pair that fits and they're not full length and they're too bright; I need dark coloured jeans. Which means spending another $50 or so and money's getting tight.
Sorry I don't know what this post is it's pretty pointless I'm just killing time.
the title is from The Shrine/An Argument by Fleet Foxes. it's good. go listen :)

though I know it's small, I want love for us all.
I have bought way too many books lately.
Monday:
Today was a good day. Woke up at 10, went out to JB Hi Fi and bought season 4 of Desperate Housewives, was whistled at on the street, went to my Roman History lecture at 1 with Helena then walked to the supermarket with her afterwards. I didn't do a lot in the lecture, just sat and listened to Impossible Soul. I really implore you to listen to at least the first four minutes of this 25 minute song. I want to know what you think; it's one of my favourites.
"Seems I got it wrong, I was chasing after something that was gone / To the black of night, now I know it's not what I wanted at all / And you said something like, "All you want is all the world for yourself" / But all I want is the perfect love / Though I know it's small, I want love for us all."
And that's it, really... :)
Monday:
- The Talisman, Stephen King & Peter Straub (Whitcoulls, $28)
- A Game of Thrones, George R R Martin (Whitcoulls, $20)
- White Fang & Call of the Wild, Jack London (Vicbooks, $15)
- The Skinny Louie Book, Fiona Farrell (Vicbooks, $13)
- American Gods, Neil Gaiman (Mightyape, $12)
- Mockingjay, Suzanne Collins (Marbecks, $22)

Just a wee update, nothing special... so I went to sleep at 2pm again yesterday, but this time I slept until 11pm, got up and watched an episode of Desperate Housewives, then slept again from 12.30-5am. Much better!
Today I'm going to do some washing, hopefully go to all my classes (I have 3, I think :| ), listen to Sufjan Stevens a lot and maybe get a haircut, because I'm desperately in need of one.

Oh dear, I've done it again! Yesterday I was in the Kelburn campus bookstore killing some time before my essay results arrived (B-, by the way!) and I somehow convinced myself to buy two more books... One is a collection of Jack London stories, including White Fang and Call Of The Wild. I left my copies at home (and they're much nicer too, all blue and pretty, while this one is one of those black penguin classics with a scary illustration on the front). The other book is called The Skinny Louie Book. It's by Fiona Farrell, a New Zealand author. All up it was only $28, which was nice!
Hmm. So I haven't actually been to a lecture in like six weeks? Oops. I'll try harder to get there today. Stayed up all night again. I got home yesterday at about 1pm, went to bed at 20 to 2 and slept until 9pm, and now it's 7am and I've been up 10 hours. This really can't be good for me.
