I'm so boring and miserable on livejournal,sorry all,just I only seem to sit down here when I'm miserable/angsty &all.Whatever,the internet,it doesn't really matter does it?
anyway,I watched live8 on the tvs at work and the best bits I thought were Pink Floyd(!!!),the who(!!!also) and I really wish I'd seen Pete,although it sounded like it was pretty bad but would've been pretty hilarious,if only for elton looking a bit embarrassed in an elder-sibling kind of way. I think it probably won't do a great deal to change anything,or really raise awareness/caring, but at the same time I read something in the paper about how it was on the front page of an American newspaper yesterday,and you know,if it put Africa at the top of the world's priorities even for just a day its got to be a good thing. And yeah I didn't go to Edinburgh,because I'm useless,and I wish I had. I seem to have got a bit more defeatist/cynical lately which I think is a shame.
Today is my brother's 17th birthday,we went to an Italian restaurant and had spaghetti and wine,it was nice because my mum and him don't always talk that often and its only a few months left till London and all,so its really nice when we're all together. I'm so excited and scared,I'm convinced that when I get there I'll just never have another idea again,but anyway.Sometime I think me and susie are booking hostels for Europe?If you read this duck ring me please,I have no credit and have been at work all the time so haven't been able to ring you.But as of friday,Berlin(hi Lauren!) et al awaits.ee.
