Privacy and the Internet

So, first I thought I was going to write about how thoroughly annoyed all the stuff with William Hague has made me. Then I half heard a guy spouting off on Radio Four this morning about how the internet has made us all incapable of deep thoughts. Unfortunately I had to turn off before I … Read More


How I Write Poems

I doubt this will interest many people but I’ve had enough questions and conversations that I thought it warranted a blog post. Often when I write I just dash something off. I don’t write about people and events mostly (contrary to popular opinon), what I usually write about is feelings and emotions. Certainly events and … Read More


Nerves and Peru

This entry is bitty as all hell, reflected my state of mind because it’s next week that I’m off to Peru. A brand new week and I am incredibly excited. I know it’s only for three weeks (yes, in an ideal world, especially given that I have no job to come back to, we’d be … Read More


Slang

As a fan of the Chalet School books and a reader of Little Women I was exposed early on to the notion that slang was somehow bad. Also at about the age of six I used the term ‘real’ instead of ‘really’ in front of my Great Uncle and was accused of sounding American. This … Read More


P45s and Holiday Pay

So…I currently work as a temp for a firm of Jugglers in Steam Town. Obviously the temping agency, lets call them ‘Decisions Decisions’ is based in Castle Moon…and it’s them rather than the Jugglers that have slightly worried me. I’m heading off to Peru, trekking through the Andes, raising money for Marie Curie et al … Read More


Blogging

It’s been a while hasn’t it? As Erfie notes a little further down I really haven’t used this in a while. My problem with blogging is, and always has been – privacy. Now me, I actively want to tell the world everything about myself. I don’t care for being judged, although I know that that’s … Read More


Which Tarot Card?!

You are The Magician Skill, wisdom, adaptation. Craft, cunning, depending on dignity. Eleoquent and charismatic both verbally and in writing, you are clever, witty, inventive and persuasive. The Magician is the male power of creation, creation by willpower and desire. In that ancient sense, it is the ability to make things so just by speaking them … Read More


My Ambition In Life

Ever since I can remember I have wanted to be a writer. Most people who read this blog know this and it’s one of the reasons my poetry pops up on Livejournal on a semi-regular basis. I have got close over the years because, whilst I am happy writing, and can’t imagine a life not … Read More


Rage Against The Machine

I have had a very EPIC weekend…well that seems to be the term used in any case though I’m sure any pedants still reading this blog will argue the toss with me. In anycase, I went to see Rage Against the Machine at their free gig in London yesterday. I had a brilliant time, it’s … Read More


Loli Meme

You’ve been to egl. You’ve posted on egl, without an onslaught of ‘USE THE MEMORIES’ and likewise. You’ve bought a lolita mook. You’ve picked a favorite brand. You’ve ordered your first item. You’ve worn a full outfit. You’ve worn a full outfit out in public. You’ve worn a full outfit and posted photos of it … Read More
