Ah, forget this! I'm going to be a pirate on the River Saskatchewan! =D

Wow, been a while since my last update... Not that it really matters. I doubt if anyone still reads this crap at all. Either way, here's the what and the how with me ( Read more... )

Long overdue for an update, as usual. Although for once it's not because I have nothing to tell, but because I don't know where to start. Been bouncing around the world like a pinball lately, and haven't had access to my own computer for a long time. Or my own time, for that matter ( Read more... )

Here is the manic phase, or whatever they call it in people who are not-quite-bipolar. Right now, I'm riding on a wave of creativity. Got a new story going, which I of course don't know if it's actually going anywhere, but I'm having fun both writing and researching it. And it's all thanks to a dream I had. Unfortunately I'm not as productive as I ( Read more... )

in Stockholm is all it takes to send me from elation into despair. I am alone and have nothing worthwhile to do, and thus I see my life through a filter of utter hopelessness. Here I am, almost a quarter of a century old, and what do I have to show for it? I don't have a job, because I'm stuck in the Never-ending MSc. I don't have anyone to even ( Read more... )

Back in the Northern hemisphere and the wonderful Swedish climate for a while (the true goth scoffs at daylight). I slept for 17 hours my first night at home and 11 the second, which successfully killed the jet lag, but I am still struggling with the 30-degree temperature difference. My body doesn't know whether it's too hot or too cold, so it ( Read more... )

Singapore airport could possibly be among the ten most dull places to be in the world (a lecture by Roger Pettersson of course being number one). The muzak is killing me softly (yes, folks, it's the piano version), it's hot and someone next to me smells like toilet freshener. AND QUANTAS DIDN'T GIVE ME A LITTLE POUCH FULL OF FUNNY THINGS!!! I feel ( Read more... )

Another day, another cold. This time with an interesting little ear congestion-thing happening on the side, just to keep my audience entertained. Partial deafness is such a scream... (*badabing*) Had plans to go to Dreamworld with the American Mob today, but as adrenaline, screaming your lungs out and the cruel Australian mid-day sun all tend to ( Read more... )

Yesterday was the day of the concert and I went back to the hill above the stadium to mooch a little more, bringing a towel and umbrella just in case. Met up with some friends and had a jolly good time. The crowd was MASSIVE! It's amazing to think that so many people can fit into a single venue, no matter how big ( Read more... )

...was possibly the happiest day of my life. It started just like one of the crappy ones, with a headache from too much worry and not enough rest, then just turned completely upside down. I was watching a zombie movie with Nathan and Beck (Stupid Girlfriend #2), when Josh came out of his room and asked if we could hear U2 rehearsing at the stadium ( Read more... )
