( What have I been up to in the near month of LJ-awayness? )

earth_vexer has an icon community! If you haven't ever come across earth_vexer's icon (which I must admit might make a teensy bit incredulous - her icons are lovely!), I highly recommend and suggest that you hie thee hither as fast as your little LJ legs can carry you to earthvexericons. Her icons are bright and clear and glorious with colour, oftentimes with a very witty and knowing ( Read more... )

I really love this song by the Killers. There's such poetry and heartfelt sentiment embued in every line.

( The week has been a bit topsy-turvy. )

Um...hi.

Life has - all of a sudden - got crazy, crazy, crazy busy. I still can't believe it's been nearly two weeks since I last updated!

I've missed birthdays - happy belated Birthday to germaine_pet and sandy_s. :) Hope you had wonderful days ( Read more... )

Eeeee! tinpanalley wrote me this wonderful Dawn drabble. Please go and enjoy it, it's wonderfully bittersweet.

Just when I thought that I had no definable OTP, I feel myself quavering rather severely having read eloise_bright's Whose Love is Innocent and karabair's And Don't Have Any Kids Yourself.

My weekend - the late, but sadly detailed, report - which I decided to post now, cos goodness knows when I'll next be on LJ. Must ween myself off its addictive qualities and go write my essay!!

So, Frankfurt, long time now see. It was extremely sunny with endless blue skies and warm, warm temperatures that I thought I'd stepped into an alterna- ( Read more... )

Just had my haircut and now I have that terrible itchy-scratchy sensation of loose hairs all over my neck and shoulders. An all over helping of ewwwwwwwwwwwwww!

Really interesting programme last night on BBC 2 explaining the view that the international terror network is more or less a piece of propaganda used by politicians to create fear in their ( Read more... )

Spent Sunday in Colchester visiting friends and catching up on 8 months' gossip and life-changing events. Phew! Also spent the day speaking German and inhaling copious amounts of cigarette smoke - such is the wont of Germans! :)

Colchester is quite a nice city, though to be honest I could have seen more. The University of Essex is terribly ( Read more... )

Wow, life is really weird.

So, after years of reading people's blogs, I finally get LiveJournal on Friday night, thinking that as my life is really turning into a big pile of poo, I need something to cheer me up, and sure enough, as if I've taken an LJ pill, I'm whee-ing all the way home thinking "I've got an LJ! I've got an LJ!"
