J. K. Rowling - Rocks Fall

I'm feeling lazy so I'm going to some up what I wanted to say in bullet points. It's all very disjointed so I think it works better this way.

- I'm loving the new Pink album. Well, technically 6 songs, but I'm sure the rest will grow on me when I actually listen to them.

- I'm really going to miss having a log fire when I go back to university.

- I love my university course and have no problems with continuing it after the holidays which makes me happy. I guess that's a sign I chose the right path.

- I do not love my flat. Or rather, I do not love it's residents. My sister and I have been dreamily looking at flats and houses to rent. Anybody up for a house share?!

- I need a TARDIS. I have most of my clothes, about 35-40 books and God only knows how many DVDs to cart back to uni. Then I have to find new and inventive ways of storing them.

- I should really be studying for a chemistry test. Fuck it.

- Don't have a heart attack now, but I've been getting some words on screen for SS. Not many mind you, but a couple hundred or so a day. Better than nothing. I'm even satisfied the last little bit isn't total crap. (It was crap yesterday but I fixed it today. Yay!)

- I'm reaching that point that tells me the Christmas holidays are rightfully at an end -- I'm sick of sweet food, I want savory!!

- *sob* Back to Weight Watchers meals and cheap pizza next week.

- Going to see the Twilight movie in the Time Warp theatre tomorrow. (Parental Units say the place is like stepping into a time warp because it's just like an old 50's theatre.) This'll be my first trip there.

- I'm scaring myself by enjoying a Nora Roberts book I found in an Oxfam shop. Key of Light is so far fun and mysterious with a strong enough 'other' to it to keep me interested.

Your reading Key of Light? Thats a good book, read it a while back. Sad thing is is that the library doesn't have the next two books in the series. Damn. The Twilight movie was good, but the soundtrack was better. Gotta love Paramore. And any day you get words written down is a good good day, so keep plugging along. Why is it all my friends either live in europe or frigging New York... I'm starting to think I need to relocate.
Chemistry? *shudders* I do not envy you at all, i had to cheat in that class to pass it.

I found the trilogy in Oxfam and bought the lot. Only just getting round to looking at them properly. Twilight movie was kinda sucky. It was a good book but I don't think it translated well into film. Too much awkward teenage love moments, not enough... I dunno...plot? Action? Nothing really happened except the 2 minute ballet studio scene. All my friends seem to live halfway across the world too. Lol.

Also, I'm purposefully flunking chem test so I can get remidial classes with the English guy. I might have a chance at understanding what the heck they're on about. ;)

I've got you beat. I started back on the crappy low-cal meals last weekend. Bleck!

Horrid aren't they? I'll be missing home cooked food by the end of my first week.

I actually didn't like Pink's new album at all... I am on a strange music wave that I cannot explain. If you ever come to find what I listen to these days you will die. [Btw is KT Tunstall not having anything out for quite awhile?]

Anyways I can relate to some of these things. I want to move out from home too and be my own man or something similar, but you know how absurd it is to try to explain to your family the reasons behind moving out, even though you will live in the same city. Plus I need a job and etcetera.

Not heard anything about KT Tunstall for a while now. I figured she just faded out of the music business. But I don't really pay all that much attention to the music scene to be honest. Pink came up on my radar because I always have an eye out for when she releases something new.

I'm lucky, the family are very understanding about the whole 'I need my own space' thing. Maybe you could point out that you're a man now and you need your own space. Assure them that you'll still stay in frequent contact but that you need to mature in your own way too.
