Brewing Up A Summer Of Music

Heather, Amy and I were to attend Fall Out Boy's concert in Edinburgh, on the 25th. Departing, and arriving late (ho!), only to find they were stuck in Starbucks. Eeek. Nonetheless, we went on the subway and arrived at Queen Street Station. We did compensate on travelling first class, but the ticket both woman said it had been discontinued. Darn it, we're high class!

Embarking to Edinburgh, we had les Pringles and a magazine to keep us occupied. I had a soda water and a pack of Rolos <3 Arriving in Edinburgh, our first stop was Jenners. The toilets were smelling. Followed by Harvey Nichols. Classiest elevator ever!

Now our three mile trek, followed closely by some emos. They lost us, or should I say we lost them, since we were the ones that turned the wrong direction onto Morrison St. >_<

Still, arrived at the Corn Exchange and had to wait for almost two hours, if I recall correctly. Once we finally got the entrace, there were a few security checks, and I was worried that they'd take my camera off of me since there were numerous posters around saying they would. But I was glad they did not, even though absolutely everyone had a camera/mobile camera with them, taking pictures.

Afer the fantabulous concert, even though Heather was slightly ill and my feet were practically glued to the floor thanks to the alcohol/sweat (x_x), we departed home via the motorway. I am almost certain that I seen a hitchiker at a signpost, but never mentioned it to the other two. v_v

Below are some pics though :D

Swabbings

I swabbed a light switch today. Mmm, but I could've electrocouted myself since the swab was wet. Agar tastes... unusual.

Anyway, I was made prefect today.

Thoughts and repulsions

Oooookay, all I've done for the past four days is listen to Placebo constantly. Well, not whilst I'm cooking/sleeping/bathing though. I could try whilst bathing. Anyway, I think I could be going into a deeper health freak mode. I've already hid rock that I was given since I read it consisted of pure sugar and modified starch, and also seven E numbers. I've also refused to eat meringues since they're just pure sugar. Eek!

Anyway, I have been eating Loyd Grossman biscuits, which seem to contain almonds this time. So, due to pure laziness, I've been spitting out the almonds across the floor instead of putting them in the bin. ;_;

Anywho, don't you just hate it when the biscuit granules you dunk into your coffee sink to the bottom?

Back to School II

Besides my other subjects, I got Maths today, having to go to the hall and big announcements about who, what, where, when, why and how? I turned up in Barr Tycoon's class, as predicted. He handed out folders and blad-eh-blah. I never got to use my purchased Paperchase notebook. ;_; Shall do on Monday. The xxx is within a 35 feet radius of me.

Next was Art in which I designed my front cover, as I have done these previous umpteen years. I tried to turn it into cubism (I always remember Harkins saying to remember that word, and I have >_>), but I couldn't remember how to do it, and I think the lettering needs to be in the third-dimension anyway.

MTA was rubbish, we had to go into the hall yet again to be sorted. My school reminds me of a concentration camp. I managed to get into Higher English. Eek! The fire alarm went off, and me and Sammie managed to get a few views of Beau. Oh ya!

Laters, me, myself, Hayley, Amy, Sammie and I went into the bibliotheque and sat reading copius amounts of trashy romance novels. How I loathe thee!

Back to School I

My return to school: I walked down the three minature steps to the foyer, only to be confronted by the one and only Beau. I almost brushed up against her, but, nonetheless, she did her fantastic violet head shake anyway. Poor woman. Anyway, I spent the first twenty minutes walking around the biology department trying to look for bleeming T13, only to find that it was Miss Gilholm's. But that wasn't correct either, since the rest of the class were up in history. Walking up the back stairs to look into the [late] classroom of Mr. Campbell to see Milné peering over the monitor of his computer like a pervert. Pervert.

First period was art, which was a bit confusing, and I just sat there. Then Mr. Pedo came in a starting blabbing to What's-Her-Face (I shouldn't say that, she seems nice, but I only know her visage), talking about how this should actually be an Intermediate 2 class. Let it be so!

Next was chemistry, and I met Beau again in the corridor giving directions to a pupil to the library. After seeing her full face, I slightly giggled, which turned into a quiet laughter. Thankfully, noone stared. ANywho, to my delight, I received Gryffy/Griffin/Gryffindor as a teacher. Dishing out copious amounts of textbooks, books, jotters, data booklets (wanting to know the measurement of the radii of a something?) and, finally, homework! Goodness, Gryffy, I expected less!

*

Finally, biology. ^_^ I really like Miss Fyfe. She has similar glasses to me. Anyway, that's beside the point. Aussi, she has stated that she will bring in a cake almost always every (oxymoron?) Thursday. Hurray! But, never mind that, biology does seem boring. >_> All that cell nonsense. However, tomorrow I be swabbing my cheek and examining my own epithelial tissue. YUM. Later on in the course, we plan to do a dissection.

Harry Potter

Le cinéma. Harry Potter and the Order of The Phoenix. (I may start posting in French from now on. You have been warned). Overall, it was a very good. Particuarly Snape: "I'm going to penetrate your mind".

Free-Wheeling Visionary

IKEA! J'adore

IKEA. [aɪˈkiːə]: Eye-key-aah. (Not [iˈki.a]: icky-uh, may I add. Anyone who says that should be shot.) Anyway, it was nice. I found some slippers, bathrobes and umbrellas (not just furniture, you see). I took a few photos, couldn't resist. I shall just post them below instead of MySpace, unfortunately. (Reasons being that Tom has decided to remove all the servers, and limit himself to 250 comments a day. No need to brag, Tom).

This one's for Naughty Baker: Audrey Hepburn on canvas, 90×90


This is how they test chairs. They have robots.

Trip to the centre-ville

Waking up with an odd dream (Miss Cleo answering my 999 call with "CALLER?"), I arrived in town with Amy and Heather. Our first stop was Topman, which is really the true colors of Fannyface and his fashion sense. (Soon to-be model, may I add.) (Too bad Ms. Moss.) There's nothing really interesting there, except the "pure heavy mongolised" elevator, which does have a buttom "M" for mongolised.

TK Maxx: Trying to get Vans for £2 (I had to put it to £7 this turn) turns out to be a miserable failure.
"The tag's on the wrong side of the show. Hold on." / "Adam, customer assistance." / "No, they're £14." / "I'll leave them then."
We did manage to locate some sexy―and clunky―clogs.



Numerous walkings around town, locating emos (perhaps slightly hypocritical >>), but they are wonderful. Ignore the girl on the right.



We spotted the above in the Galleries, outside Borders, and outside H&M.
(Where I bought a hoodie because I was cold.)

Dental caries warning

If you eat candy you should brush your teeth. You should probably brush your teeth if you eat anything. Better yet, you should brush your teeth while you eat, eliminating any chance of a cavity/dental caries. Oh, and you should drink mouthwash with your meal. While you're in the shower.

Eek!

I woke up and found out that noone else is on MSN, so I just mess about on MySpace, but there's nothing to do on that either, except find out about what your best friends likes; something you probably already know.

The last few days have been boring really. I am utterly dreading the RE exam as I don't know anything, and I'd rather not learn in great depth the views of Buddhists in less than 24 hours. But I should have a positive attitude, but... Meh.

The Rules of Attraction

Today, I bought underwear >.> That's all. On the other hand, I found some text in The Rules of Attraction (God, I'm obsessed, but it's so good <.<) written in French. So I decided to type it all out (that took ages; tabbing back and fro between World Lingo do get the correct marks) and translate. The result was quite humorous:

I could not prevent me from approaching me you with evening. I drank too much tequila and I perhaps smoked too much of pot but that does not want to say that I do not love you. However after it sayhaving said you, I walked until the end of the world and I have vomit. Yesterday we separated with beba, my girl friend. You, you were one of the reasons for that (then Beba does not know that I wish you) but not only. It is that for a long time that I feel allured by you. I am not insane, but you interests me and I took some photographs of you whom I made when you did not look at. I cannot believe that you did not notice me. If you had come with me yesterday evening, I would have returned to you happy. I could have returned to you happier than this type with which you left yesterday evening. By putting the things at worse I could always go back to Paris and live with my father. In any event, America is shitting. And me making you love in the town of my father Cannes has. And to leave my job of writer has Camden Courier. perhaps did you see my articles? How to prevent the positive Herpes and effects of the extase. You does not obsess me. I could have any girl whom I want here (and I passed there near), but your legs are perfect, better than all those of the others dilles and your hair is so fair and soft, better still of all and your figure is perfect it-also. I not if you had an operation of nose but your nose is perfect. Your features are really perfect. I perhaps will test still * once. But do not leave next the fois*. remember that I could return heuruse very to you. I can kiss well and I have the American Express Chart of platinum. I suppose that you have it too. your legs are splendid, and better than those of any other girl. Of which color are your eyes? the photographs which I took are all in black and white. I would like to follow the same courses that you, but He do photograph and you… what? Beautiful-art? You are sexy. If I knew that somebody got excited of you like me, and you, you tested the same feeling towards him, I would leave. I would return at home. No doubt.

Oh my

They're called fun-size for a reason.

Today my mum made me drive her to drop of cookies for my brother's bake sale to pay for a camping trip, or whatever. And right there, across the street, was this homeless man. And I'm thinking, why aren't we baking cookies to raise money to buy this guy a home instead of some stupid camping trip, which will just be sad anyway.

I mean, I never go on trips and I don't even want to, but, like, I know you're going to say that the seventh grade science camp was a camp but it wasn't outdoors, so it doesn't even count.

When I got home, I burned the word "camping" in Scrabble tiles and then I wrote a poem entitled "23 Points of Sorrow", and then I burned that, too. And then the smoke alarm went off; I am the smoke alarm: People walk by me and never check my batteries, and when I scream everyone just runs away.

Ernie D:

Out of extreme boredome today, I find myself taking photographs of my neighbour washing the car. I personally find this a momentum of stalking.
I did manage to do some RMPS revision, but out of more boredom and lack of knowledge on the subject, I cannot continue further. I honestly cannot be bothered learning about annacha or nirvana, whatever those mean. I think I'll just go eat more cereal.

I certainly expected the OCD since I have a tendancy to over-do and make sure everything is done in the correct way.
(I did stop away from cleaning the dishes because she was doing it wrong.)
But I did not expect anti-social disorder. *sigh* Maybe it is true, me and TK Maxx.

Them

Well, today has been very eventful! I SEEN CAFFERTY in Tesco, so I had to hide in the clothes department. I really should have tried on sunglasses as a disguise. After, I seen this woman there who asked her boyfriend "Do you want some potato scones, Dave?" in an AUSTRALIAN accent. Bloody wonderful. Whilst she said that, Dave was sniffing a mango.
I should've stalked both Cafferty and Dave and Aussie-woman, but I was in a very important transaction with a bunch of red, green and yellow peppers!

Opticians

Once upon a time, I went to the opticians and was put through vigorous optic tests. I had to look into this box and count how many red circles there were, but I couldn't see any! And then he kept going "Hmmm" and looked like David Tennant. Then I had my retina photographed, which was penetratingly blinding light being shined into my eyeball! Finally, he had a microsocopid light and stared into my eye for about five minutes and I couldn't stop laughing because it was tickly...

Anyway, today I met up with the clan and went and played Frustration.
I only came third ;_; But it is only a piece of plastic >_> Then we done a one mile treck into the centre of town to look at French people speaking their mother tounge. I did try to buy something so I could bellow "Bonjour!" at one of them, but nothing looked tasty. I returned to my humble abode and I am not eating Garibaldi biscuits.

Chunk II

PENANCE:

Everything. OK! I'll talk! In third grade, I cheated on my history exam. In fourth grade, I stole my uncle Max's toupee and I glued it on my face when I was Moses in my Hebrew School play. In fifth grade, I knocked my sister Edie down the stairs and I blamed it on the dog... When my mom sent me to the summer camp for fat kids and then they served lunch I got nuts and I pigged out and they kicked me out... But the worst thing I ever done - I mixed a pot of fake puke at home and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony and then, t-t-then, I made a noise like this: hua-hua-hua-huaaaaaaa - and then I dumped it over the side, all over the people in the audience. And then, this was horrible, all the people started getting sick and throwing up all over each other. I never felt so bad in my entire life.
