Okay, I am moving to tofucheeks! Feel free to add! I will not be deleting _swastika but i probably will never come back. Funny since i just rejuvenated it. Ah well. CHEERS! ITS BEEN A GOOD YEAR :D

You've something on your upper lip; i think it's a girl you picked up from downstairs. The one with the nice shoes and kindergarten chin. I stride past like the milky way, one foot chronically acylic, the other hooked like the apparatus of thieves. My whole body's tense because i have one of two options: i can backtrack into the two of you and your ( Read more... )

The bastards are taking away the fridge as part of some cruel and systematic exchange of new electronics for old electronics! That fridge is twenty years old and never broke down! Feeling hysterically sad now.

You either wake up productive (i.e before nine) or you dont. Today, i was forced awake at seven to go make my re-entry permit so as to be able to make "multiple journeys in and out of the country for the next ten years". Felt quite relieved, but also shit tired. Predictably, i tried to stall for time before returning home.

( Okay, i couldn't resist. )

I can't believe the first thing i can think about typing in a recently resurrected livejournal is my current obsession with Chinese surnames and how it's such a coincidence that i'm related to this ancient travel writer because that's the thing about Chinese surnames and their specific origins. If someone's got your surname, you're almost certainly ( Read more... )

Description of my desk: two round, full haw, sweet lust herbs, steady in the stream of japanese from a stereo. clock saying: you are wasting your life pretending to be a pirate. telephone seconding that with a: don't blow on me every hour, we all need to catch our breath. butterfly on the window, feeling perky, 'i will moult on your notes and make ( Read more... )

today, at around two in the morning, i turned sixteen. this happened quite suddenly. my fingers expanded until they were awkward, harmless snakes, and i coughed out a moustache. i used it to hide the half-moon prunes on my upper lip. outside the window, leo yawned and sucked in the sky just a little, so that i felt i was once again a bloody foetus ( Read more... )
