Pleasant Music

Yesterday was very pleasant. Alex, Baz and I headed down to the local park to catch the sun with a bottle of the homebrewed ginger beer. It was a nice day out, although it made us all a little sleepy :p

I'd intended to do work, but in the end I only got a little done. The books I've had to read for some of courses are absolutely fucking batshit, let me tell you, and the plays are the worst of the lot... having finished Samuel Beckett's "Endgame" I can only presume that every character was in some kind of hell. Weird shit.

I am currently listening to deeply, deeply pleasant music. :)




I really, seriously like DJ Food. Kaleidoscope is up there on my favourite albums ever. Also, in a month's time Rach is taking me and Ish:













To go and see GOMEZ, MOTHERFUCKERS :D (We have to pay her back, though, obviously ;p)


Well, that about calls this one a wrap. Back in Hastings in about two weeks :)

As always, much love :)

Plants, plants, plants

I have begun home-brewing. Partly because I love alcohol, partly because it's cheap, partly for bragging rights and primarily because I want to make amazing wine out of vanilla one day.

Vanilla wine would be awesome, I can't believe nobody's thought of it. Although, obviously, I'm worried that in actuality somebody already did and it was shit... hmm.




These charming chaps are Pearl and the Beard, one of the fucking cutest little bands in the world. I mean, just fucking look at them:




But anyway, apart from that we have plants. Plants all in our house. There's Dragon, the communal plant (of whom Alex is weirdly affectionate), Molly's sunflower plant and my two plants: Port the laurel plant and Sherry, who's some kind of fern. I'm quite fond of them, but I've had to put Sherry out on the ledge. He doesn't look to hot.

The band with Ish kind of fell through, we never get them time to practice so it's largely a lost cause - still, we've managed to record one song which I imagine will get put up here eventually.

Alex has picked up guitar again, and suggested that when he's got up to scratch we and Jess should start a little band. Which is plenty fine by me, I've still got the itch for it.

Anyways, Bangface tomorrow and Gomez in a month and a bit - live shows are looking good for a while :D

Das ist all.

Much love :)
