THE GENERAL DISCONTENT Lately I've been terribly restless, and nothing I do seems to be right. I mean, nothing. It's all wrong. It feels all wrong. I can't even explain it, except I think I just did. There is wrongness permeating the very words I type. No, now I'm laughing because I'm being pretentious (even though I really hate that word and think that 99% of the things people label 'pretentious' is nothing of the sort). But sometimes, like now, I just want to take a break from the internet, a very long break, but the thing is, is that it's not even about the internet or any one thing at all other than sometimes I just want to delete it all and just re-invent myself as someone awesome. Of course that couldn't actually happen because for that to work I'd have to have some kind of inherent awesomeness and I am severely lacking. I don't know what I want and maybe that is the problem. But this is a horrible, horrible feeling. Let me break it down. I don't like the way I dress, but I can't afford to dress the way I want to dress, I don't like my blog, it's name, it's layout, it's content. I don't like the things I write, the way I write, the photographs I take, the things I draw, the things I say, the things I think. Mostly I don't like much of anything. SHOPPING FOR IPODS I've had my yellow ipod nano for just over a year, before that I had a green nano, before that I had a silver mini. But no! Now I need to store music videos and TV shows as well as all the music I like there is absolutely no possible way I can fit everything on a nano. So here's the thing, I was deciding between an ipod classic (160gb) and an ipod touch (32gb), obviously one store more than the other, but I was wondering if the magically magical ipod touch had features that leveled out the playing field as far as decision making goes? Advices pleases.
LIVEJOURNAL vs. BLOG I have plans, plans that are being thwarted by the things discussed in 'Chapter One: The General Discontent'. Mostly I still think I want to get a new livejournal, because I feel like I've just lost touch with absolutely everyone and it's very strange, so I will be doing that and it will be soon. I also want to change the name of my blog because I found this girl who has a blog and she calls her followers 'deerlings' and has done for years or something and now somehow (not that I ever thought it was the most original thing in the world ever anyway), it seems a little less shiny. So I will be changing it. Changing, changing. Plus I really want to set up a fashion blog. It might never happen, but I like the idea of it.
SKINS So I stopped watching Skins after the first episode of series 3. I didn't like the new generation, and I also felt like they ruined Effy, but I see episode descriptions/spoilery things on ONTD from time to time and that's all fine and well, but for the love of Sid & Cassie, DO NOT KILL EFFY. Yes, I know, I don't watch it anymore, I don't care etc etc blah blah blah but from the original generation Effy was one of my favourite characters and people seem to think that given current storylines and the fact that the writers like to kill people off (Chris *tear*) that she might die before the end of the season. No! No I tell you! I will not accept this. This reminds me of the time when I had all but stopped watching Dawson's Creek because it turned into some kind of hideous mess (apart from the season when Audrey was an alcoholic and especially when she drove Pacey's car right into Mrs Leary's house at Thanksgiving or Christmas or whatever that holiday was when they had fierce-as-hell Grams in attendance and the guy with the really bad English accent) but I still watched and I still bawled like a teeny tiny little baby when Jen died, how COULD they do that? Jen and Pacey were the only decent characters in the show. Oh and sometimes Jack when he wasn't being a dick. So in summary, I would very much appreciate them not killing any character in Skins series 4 that I actually know the name of.
ETA: How dare you! HOW DARE YOU E4! I know his name. He is the hot one. If I watched the show in the first place, now is the time when I would stop.
VEGANISM I think I'm going to give it another go. Hunting down vegan cookery books as we speak.
