Notes from the house with no electricity

Jun 06, 2010 00:12

Oh my god. A 4 hour power cut in the early evening, where to amuse myself I wore out the battery on my phoneand my psp, and then slept just to pass the time. Power comes back on at 10pm, and with it the Internet, and all is well. Until now, with another powercut, and I can't sleep due to not being tired, cause I slept earlier!!!! Aaaaargh!

And to think, I was proud that I could cope without technology, the net and the outside world for the whole summer. Seems I need to be living in a tent at camp for that ability to kick in. Ajfgxjsksldjx.
(keyboard smashes don't really work on a touchscreen. Bleh)

After recharging my fone in the brief interval of yes-there-be-power, I could just listen to music. But therein lies a weirdass thing I have, about not knowing when people are sneaking up on me in the dark. I have no clue why this is, and why the absence of light suddenly gives me this irrational worry, but there we go. There are only 3 other people in the house, 2 of them wouldn't do that (cause they just got back from a holiday, and are probably having a shag as we speak) and the one who would is fast asleep, due to getting in at 7am from going out, and then having go be up in3 hours for a wedding. What's even more irrational, is that if the house was empty, I would less likely be able to listen to my iPod either. Go figure. Am a bit paranoid, methinks.

Other notable things to ramble about....

Why the hell is it so hard for me to get a job? I mean ffs, it's LONDON. Big place. lots of pubs restaraunts and shops whith which I have experince. Gyah. Each rejection tears my soul down a little more.

So no job, no uni (all exams are over), so what have I been doing? Translating Japanese blogs and other Japanese related stuff. Oh the irony is not lost on me. Part of me wishes to keep this dedication right through til September, so then things won't be so terrible. That's if I pass of course. *grimace*

Am ridiculously campsick. Have taken to hiding things off my facebook newsfeed that are guaranteed to set me off. That's rather sad of me, tbh. And all my 2nd year mates are off to japan, and a bunch of 1st year mates are too. I'm stuck in this country. Ajfhsksfjfkdekuchkd.

WAUGH this sitting in the dark business is making me rather maudlin. Time for some psp sonic, methinks.
