Quote of the Day - 'If it takes shit to make bliss then I feel pretty blissfully' - Modest Mouse

I should really start these things earlier on in the evening, its currently 8 minutes past midnight and I have to be up in less than 7 hours. Fuck fuck fuck. I also decided I should probably cut down on my usage of the computer as well... As it is I spend way too much time on it and end up with nowhere near enough sleep. Thinking about it, I don't really see what the point is of the vast majority of stuff I do on the computer anyway. Thinking about this today made me feel pretty low, what with my current day to day life just consisting of get up/college/go home/sit on computer for hours/get minimal sleep. I thought about things far too much today, it wasn't very good. Part of the problem was that I had nothing to distract me in the several hours between getting home from college and dinner. That's a lie actually, I had several things with which to distract myself but they all grew boring pretty quickly. I should really have done something productive (i.e. HOMEWORK MOUNTAIN) but I didn't. I suppose I just need a bit of time to get back into the swing of things after the summer break. From now on, I will be cutting back on my internet usage (or at least trying to) and mostly using it for the things I really care about. I say this, and yet I am still here. Oh well, never mind.

In less shitty news, I have made a new friend recently. Her name is Lucy, but she likes to be called WONGA (if you don't know what WONGA is watch this) or Nev and she is also a cranbauxer. She is really into pokémon like me and is a total artist (which I am impressed by, I have always wanted to be good at art but have never had the perseverance or skill). She sent me about a million of her drawings, paintings and the like over msn, some of them are very good indeed. She seems to have a very active imagination too, a lot of the pictures were of pokémon she had invented. They weren't really shitty pokémon either, they were awesome and I really liked them. We are going to invent some pokémon together, we decided. I am very excited about this, as you can probably imagine. She is also older than me (only slightly though) so it makes me happy that there are people out there who are also pokémon obsessives but probably shouldn't be (as they are too old). Nev also showed me bits of her room via webcam, she has a hell of a lot of animal bones (including an entire fox skeleton). She also keeps several live animals, including giant land snails, which are fairly awesome. I liked her room a lot, I was even a bit jealous. Mine sucks in comparison. I also like her quite a lot, she's weird, but that's just the way I like people. She doesn't react negatively to me being weird, which is pretty nice.

On a related note (related to animal bones) Louis had a whole box of fucking animal skulls in college yesterday. No really. They're for art (apparently). This also reminds me, I'm supposed to advertise his and Adam's webcomic, which is also up here on blogspot. I told him I would several days ago, my short term memory must be very poor. Here it is: Something Standard. It's pretty weird, but not as much so as I am. So if you enjoy my blog you're likely to enjoy the comic. I find them pretty damn funny, if I'm honest.

Had a nice little chat with thizzley about what we will do when we grow up. Not going to go into it here, but suffice to say it made me happy. She was the highlight of my day yet again, bless her. I don't really know why, but it was just really comforting talking to her. It made me feel a lot better despite me being stuck in a load of crap right now in my life. All this shit in my life is just moving so fast right now, I feel quite lost. She helps me to forget about it all, if only for a while. I'm so grateful for her.

I am currently listening to Modest Mouse. They are one of those bands I have always wanted to get into but never really bothered. I torrented their album Good News For People Who Love Bad News today with instruction from Nev, so thanks to her because it is a truly great album. I would recommend it to anyone who hasn't already got it, it's so good. I am also seeing District 9 with Matt on Sunday, which I am very excited about. A few people I know have seen it already and they say it's really good, so I can't wait!

Really tired now, no idea how this took over an hour to write. See y'all (sorry thizzley) tomorrow!
