• Vegan fail. Woke up this morning feeling absolutely wretched. For the past week or so I've been feeling very weak and wobbly, and it seems no matter how much I eat / drink / take vitamins / eat some more, it doesn't go away. So I decided to have a 'cheat' day (cheating on what? compassion? blerg.) and had a few dairy products. Didn't have meat as I ( Read more... )

Nicked from tigerlilly33 because I'm bored.

Who's on Twitter? I want to stalk you! Gimme your username (and favourite peeps to follow) in the comments pretty please :)

So I thought I'd just fangirl for a bit until the block fades away :P

Part of the glory of BBC Sherlock is that it's only three episodes, so after one evening at eponine254's place I was all caught up. Why it's also ( Read more... )

“How much is this little purple one?” I asked hopefully.

The sales assistant looked me up and down, “The On Sale rack is over there.” she replied dismissively, gesturing to a picked-apart corner of the store.

The first time I stole, it didn’t feel very good. In fact, it didn’t feel like much at all. I walked out of the cramped little Claire ( Read more... )

So I've been thinking about Japan. For those who don't know, last year I wanted to apply to the JET programme (the Japanese government recruits assistant English teachers from all over the world) but I couldn't get my citizenship in time to apply. I've been a permanent resident of South Africa since I was little, but I can't get a passport unless I ( Read more... )
