I love making lists, I don’t know why, they make me feel better about things. I feel like I’ve achieved something afterwards though in all actuality I haven’t.

Do I want to travel, or do I want to work? Or do I do one then get bored and do the other?

What do I want to do? Where do I want to go? Will I ever break this cycle of thought?

Stressseddd

Curently Listening to : nothing

I’m stressed…over curtains believe it or not.

Seriously, how does one get stressed over curtains? Well. I’ll tell you. I ordered three sets which have now all arrived and though I can pick a colour out the three I currently need to return all of them of reorder another set again! Argh frustration.

I also brought some things from the sale at work, and though I really one one jacket I brought (75 quid to 30 quid barrrgainnn) I can’t afford to keep it as I’m totally broke this month. Like painfully broke. I just gave into the retail “oooo it’s in a sale” weakness, it’s nice to waltz about in it for now heh.

I also brought some other odds and ends but I’ll keep them, they’re okay.

I need to move back into my room today. Urgh, so not in the mood. I should set up my music in there though, that’ll sort me out.

Oh shite I don’t have any vinyl for my 365 tomorrow ermm…

I want my new pc NOW!

Must sell stuff on ebay, but scared.

I’m a danger to myself…I know

Mood : sleep deprived (as per usual)
Curently Listening to : Ours - Willing

I’m a wee bit scared of my financial situation at the moment.

No worries, if my calculations are correct once I’ve picked my curtains and returned the bits and bobs I don’t want then I should be left with a bit more money to get by this month. Like said it’s going to have to be a very quiet month though.

I have a nice chunk of four days off next week, can’t wait, I’ll use the time to sort things out. Hopefully build my pc as fingers crossed it’ll arrive by then. Just checking now it says it’s being shipped on Friday woot. Hopefully I’ll get it by early Friday and I can spend the day destroying building it. I’m so excited, I’ve never built a pc from scratch by myself before. yeah I’ve fiddled/changes parts but never the whole thing. I better get my laptop on standby though just so I can run to someone in case I break something :/

I still need to listen to the Mercy all the way through as an album. I’d listened to the songs I’ve missed out and I love a few of them too. However I was thinking last night that this album has a very more commercial vibe to it in some songs. Plus a lot more backing vocals, more fancy guitar, the songs have been carefully produced and tweaked but I feel a certain about of raw energy and all out Jimmy’s vocals are lost. It’s a pretty album but I miss Jimmy’s screaming (though it is used as a climax in some tracks.)

I better get ready for the daily stupidly early grind. At least I’m only in for six hours. Must stay motivated. I need caffeine.

Sqqqeeeeeeee!

Curently Listening to : Tori Amos - Caught a lite sneeze

I am going to leave work at the end of May. I’ll have to hand in my notice at the beginning of May. I am going to leave regardless of whether I find myself a new job or not, and yes I understand how this will affect job seekers allowance bollocks.

Don’t ask about the details or the whys. The details don’t matter. The fact of the matter is I’ve came to the decision in my head. It scares me this thought - but my happiness is worth more than the pennies I’m paid.

It’s important I set these dates. I need to scare myself into a change.

4. Where did you go to school?
My first one was a cool little village school, I learnt loads, then I moved and went to a shit shit shit village primary school and I despised it, then I went to high school - an ALL GIRLS school! that was alright but mainly shit until I reached 6th form and I had some pretty cool times. So summary school = shit.
