That little flat bread I made for my lunch was one of the most peaceful things I’ve ever done. Just a small amount of bread and some water and salt. Kneading it, rolling it between my palms and pressing it out into a little round and then frying it. I also had a small portion of reheated food from last nights dinner. Afterwards I sat and felt the slight heat in my mouth from the chili...

Thus mrrrnin I got up at seven sharp and dressed and took my skateboard and headed out into the still darkness.
Skated along down through the empty town, alone save one taxi and about five people milling around. It was so great to be out at such an early hour. It’s like I had a massive head start on the day, as though I’m picking up where last night left off. I am definitely going to...

I went and made a cup of tea and on the way I thought I was going to have a mince pie with it. I thought how piggy I was being eating all these mince pies and I wasn’t even hungry, and I felt sad. But I was going to have one anyway, wasn’t I? I made a cup of tea. Not many teabags left. We could have got more today but I just didn’t get round to do doing it. Both that and washing...
In the night a print of a poster I designed kind of fell off the wall and got caught on my year planner I made and stuck up. Today a page of the planner fell off so I ripped it all off the wall and screwed it up including the poster. Now I have a nice blank wall. I have about a month to finish my dissertation. AW heck. haha I love saying stuff like that. Music is good because it distracts the mind...

Beethovens finished, it was great.
Imagine the scene where they’re redoing the ladies toilets or something. Love that area just there with the trees and the leaves and big houses. I loved that old ladies toilets with its graffiti and tree growing through the roof and boarded up windows and mossy seclusion. Now it’s all destroyed and concrete and dust and building site like any other. I want to know what they’re...

I go out to escape being in.
Skate off down the road alone to do various things. I’ve got all those things to do and they’re important. Buying ingredients for muesli (I wonder who’ll be in the Health Food Shop today?), sending something off at the post office, seeing the sights of the town, looking at all the people, skating down the pier on the smooth surface, feeling the...

When I was back home I got annoyed at my cat and threw her off me because she was pawing on my stomach before she sat down, and I was afraid she’d pull the threads on my jumper.
How brainwashed am I? As thought my jumper is worth more than my cats innocent affection. Jeez.
Other ways I am brainwashed include my obcession with cheapness. Even though I’ve mulled the subject for a good...

The seagull sits atop the roof of a house, bathed in sunshine. He surveys the area, then takes flight.

Listening To Albums
I find it with nearly every music album I buy. Normally you know a couple of songs, and buy it to own it and to listen to it. Sometimes I’ll think “hmm” This isn’t that great, or prefer one side of a record, or not hear or enjoy parts of songs.
Listening to albums again for the fourth or fifth time you start to know the songs, pick out little bits, hear and understand the...

I just had a walk around town to some shops. I discussed the merits of red peppercorns vs. black with the girl behind the counter, bought a loaf of nice bread from the bakers and noted that it was warm from the sun shining on it to the man. He agreed and said to have a nice day, and I returned the words of goodwill. I checked out the greengrocers and got carrots for Dahl and milk and clotted cream...
The tape I have seems to have on it so far: some strange laughing, a man saying one two three four, and a long recording of a yoga class or something, and some other things. It’s just told me to never mix alcohol with ecstasy, or any of the dance drugs.

I’m tired with all this bullshit stuff I see on creative and arty blogs. It all looks the same and hardly any showing real talent. Boring nothings. The most interesting things I see are from a german blog, a slovenian art collective and the russian collective Voina. They do and produce, like, interesting things and have a point to them. Crazy I know.
As a way to at least do something that...

I just took the test and got a score of 135 which means I am (quoting their little table thing) “Gifted (2.3% of test takers)”
Cool.
I got to get to, sleep now.
Man I had the absolute BEST time tonight I’ve had all god damned year, better than all summer and everything. Different for sure but different in a completely great way. Both times were the best in their own ways. Tonight was all friendlyness and lovelyness and friends and good times and laughter and public and tea and drinks and god damned amazing times, a few hours with my absolute best...
I’m walking to the pub singing to myself and maybe I burp real loud and vulgar since I’m on my own and it’s funny. I hear a yowl that I recognise. I make a little noise like “pwpht pwpht” with my lips, yowl is heard again. I go back to the gate behind me and my half siamese cat greets me, she’s out roaming and she recognised my voice as I walked down the road...

I hate that we (I) are so dumbed down to everyday life that I know how I’m feeling now will surely fade. I will remember it, it will shape me and my memories and attitude to life, but this current feeling will fade. Fears will creep back in, silly petty troubles will again fog my mind. I’ll do things that I don’t want to do and have no real purpose, I’ll feel awkward and...

Just, uhm, please look at this and try to get your head around it. Download the picture and look at it at your leisure (I found it easier to navigate around using the picture viewer than straight on the internet)
Each step up to the adjacent image is staggering. The distances involved are so grand it’s impossible to even comprehend, you just have to take a look and have a think and...
