Charity Muggers and the Desperate Quest for Employment
Anyone roaming the streets of Dublin, or perhaps the streets of innumerable other towns in Ireland, will probably sympathise when I mutter the words ‘Hanly Centre’, ‘Concern’ and ‘goddamn stupid charity muggers trying to take my money’, with an exasperated, perhaps traumatised look smeared across my prissy never-worked-a-day-in-my-life face.

Writer's Block: Lights Out
NO SCHOOL :D
The whole town was out - funny stuff. -
MJ - We hardly knew ye
Well, to get the ball rolling I figured I should comment on the whole Micheal Jackson thing, seeing as it’s all I’ve heard anyone talk about these last few weeks. I remember watching CNN in Dublin Airport as he was dying, certain he’d be fine. There was a weird denial among the gaggle of us staring at the screen - as though Micheal Jackson was ( Read more... ) -
OMGZ I'S BACK
Please excuse me while I shake off the dust and air the cyber moth ball smell out of my neglected old blog, but after throwing myself back into the horrors of school I sort of... dropped all other forms of enjoyment, contact and all other earthly pleasures as I studied.

My three sentences are as follows:

- Who else here would find the idea of a classmate you kind of know ( Read more... ) -
Argh.
Okay, cuts officially not working on my page.
I know it's not me... Well I'm pretty sure, cos every time I try to enter a cut it's just... ignored.
Rar.

Just in case...
I've posted this to CreativeWriter, but I fear I may have violated some rule of the comm. and it won't be put up, so I'll throw it on my journal in case.
My entry for a competition, theme: Interculturalism. I've never written a play before so alert me to any mistakes in layout or whatever (I'm going by Shakespeare from school and musical scripts ( Read more... ) -
Nothing to Declare
Okay, tired and want to sleep. Just thought I'd write down the mildly exciting things I encountered today (no pictures unfortunately, I was too slow with my camera)
1) Anonymous Protestors on Abbey's Street:
"DEM SCIENTOLOGISTS ONLY WANT YIS'RE MUNY"
As much as I think Scientology is stupid... Anonymous just make me laugh. Buying a ten euro V for ( Read more... )
