little sentimental and rambly
29th December 2004, 9:50 pm

watched bits of the sound of music today, and i still have no idea how they're supposed to walk over the alps with no supplies, food or coats even. yes julie andrews can sing for britain, but she's not too practical.

i watched the return of the king extended film yesterday, with al and my dad. it's an incredible 4 hours long, but still absolutely fantastic. i think it'd be good fun to be an actor, despite all the bitching that ciaran does about it, but unfortunately i'd be horrendous at it, so nay mind. speaking of ciaran, he arrived here this evening, probably going back to london fridayish. he told me he's quitting the bill in july, and has no idea what he's going to go for next. i told him to do some script writing stuff.

did ALL the ironing today, so feeling quite smug. i've said it many times before and i'll say it again, i do enjoy a bit of ironing. most of my house found this ridiculous... although ironing in our house is hazardous, as we have no ironing board, so you have to do it on a towel on the rickety table that's going to collapse any day soon. ironing's soothing... maybe i see it as ironing out life's creases, or maybe i just like making things all neat again. either way, it's theraputic.

talking to amy on msn. she's split up with scott, and she's doing that annoying thing of replying with very short, mopey answers, but not actually coming out with "i feel depressed because i'm not with scott anymore", or something similar. if people want to talk about something upsetting, just come out and talk about it. don't sit around asking me to go "are you okay? you sure? no really, you sure?". maybe i'm not subtle enough, but i prefer it when people just give it to you straight. anyway, msn's a poor substitute for conversation, except when i have conversations with rich, as he sends me pictures of moving sheep.

finished reading notes and making extra notes for one module, go team me indeed. only 6 more to go.

amy's just told me she's already seeing someone else, after just breaking up with scott. can you say rebound?
I miss paddy, i've just realised. i just texted him and told him that too, cos i'm feeling a little sentimental tonight. everyone else, and i mean everyone else can see that we should be together, why can't he?

damnit, now i'm going to have depressing thoughts for the rest of the night. this is possibly a perfect time to get quite drunk. actually i might do some more revision, because regardless of whether peddy and i ever get together, i really have to pass my exams exceptionally well. i'm sure i can do it, i just have to go do it.

listening to pavarotti - nessun dorma to finish this entry. it truly is one of the most beautiful songs ever written, but only when it's sang by him.

yes, i shall go revise reproduction from BMS205. i will pass these exams well.

last - next
