Ugh.
"VANDALS have gone on a wrecking spree, smashing more than a dozen gravestones in a Cardiff cemetery."
I saw that headline on a paper today. I didn't get to read the full article, and I can't find anything but the headline captions online... this is all probably for the best. How is that people like that exist? Makes me feel almost physically ill.
I had to mention it, because things keep playing on my mind and make me more and more angry and more and more sickened if I don't mention them, and talking to people about this sort of thing has helped in the past.
In happier news, I watched a documentary movie called Cinemania which was pretty good. It's about a bunch of extreme film buffs ('cinephiles') in New York. It was funny at times, and at others quite disturbing/depressing. Seeing things that I do (cross-referncing cinema times to try to make sure I see everything, getting annoyed when I miss something, keeping all my ticket stubs, seeing 4 movies in a day, etc.) multiplied to such extreme lengths was strange. I see 4 movies in a day, weekly. These people see 4 movies in the cinema every day! They have next to no life outside of the cinema, and travel from cinema to cinema around New York making sure they see all these rare showings and stuff. Really interesting: made me feel both inadequate for not seeing anywhere near as many movies as them, and also good for not allowing movies to dominate my life in that way. Such lonely lives! :(
I had my hair cut today. This needing to get it cut every couple of months thing is going to take some getting used to!
I've been in a really good mood all week. I got a little depressed last night and this morning, which I won't bore myself or anyone with the details of. :)
I tried and failed miserably to organise a night out with some of my friends for the week. Scarily, I've not seen many of them in over a year. I hope I don't lose touch with them. I know for a fact that my circle of friends in my year will all stay friends for the rest of our lives, but I've lost more and more contact with all my friends that are two years younger. That's one of the reasons I miss school.
Dido's new album is outstanding. The best track is my 'current music' in my opinion. I've had it on loop play all day and last night. I highly recommend the album.
I'm tired, but don't want to go to bed. I get a few days off work and I slip right back into the habit of staying up late! *g* I should probably go and read a little, instead of spending all my time on here!
