Where shall I go?
Friday, July 18th, 2008I want a holiday. I don’t know where to go. Note a holiday is different from ‘going travelling, I think of a holiday is more of a get away thing. Just chilling out. Travelling has a lot more to it, plus it’s a bit more winging it rather than lounging about a really badass hotel and badass cafes and stuff like that.
My last holiday was Stockholm, and even then it was only a long weekend and had the main purpose of going to a gig. It seems like decades since I’d last just gone somewhere for the sake of it, just a normal simple holiday. Not a boring beach holiday mind, where it’s just filled with people getting lobster coloured in an attempt to get a tan. I’ll like to go see things, eat different cool stuff, marvel at stuff around me etc. I mean where can I go to be able to do all that? Or maybe I am just clouded by the dreamy picturesque concept of this perfect little chilled out place.
Then again there was this wonderful long street in Stockholm, that was littered with cafes and shops. The cafe we stopped in to write postcards (and have tea and cake!) was wonderful. So maybe there is somewhere out there…
In other news, I’m really itching to see Dark Knight when it comes out, it’s very rare I find myself looking forward to a film release, but I just know it’s going to be badass.
Work was a busy four hours, loads to do, and barely actually did anything on the shop floor itself the whole time. Instead I found myself laughing my head off in the store’s display windows while trying to hang up the sale window display signs. It was a bit stressful though and we didn’t get that job finished before our shifts were up. Though I’m damn well glad I could escape.
Death o’clock shift tomorrow morning, I can’t imagine it being really busy at such an early time. But the last sale did result in a packed store. And this time round I doubt it will be any different, if not worse. I’m actually scared if I have to go work on the till :/ Erk.
Though yeah, it’ll be fine…I think, I’ll somehow make it through the day, then go home to try and sleep, then fail and go see Amy and other random people that night. And then that’ll be another week gone…
Which is bad because summer seems to be going so quickly and I’ve barely had any social fun yet, I’ve had other fun mind but you know you need some fun with your mates too. Hope the two festys sort me out. I need to huck a frisbee :(
Oh and I’m addicted to treacle tarts from the bakery :/ I’m going to get fat(ter?)! And I’m totally reloving The Bends by Radiohead, such a goodd album, I’m actually beginning to think I like it more than Ok Computer (that’s a weird album and reminds me summertime a few years back, driving to my uni city late summer evenings, winding down some empty roads).
