You've got the love!
- My pinky just went to sleep. Goddamnit.
- Oh hey, it's awake now! That was an interesting sensation; I wanted to capture it.
- Also, hey, hey, guess who's going to see Florence + the Machine when they come o'er here? That's right: ME! I listened to the album properly for the first time ever two days ago, and now I am so ridiculously stuck on her, her, herrr. Her amazing voice and amazing songs and (crush mode) red hair and jawline, gosh. ♥
- Plus The xx is opening for her. :D
- Also coming to Singapore is Au Revoir Simone, whom I know approximately nothing about. I have heard they are awesome though! Thoughts, anyone?
- I am riffing off
kickingrad's resolution to catch more live shows (does theater count? Because they are putting up The Tempest sometime soon, and I should check that out), because! For the first time in my life I have the time and also money to watch more things in general, AND AND AND. Super excited!
- We had a new person coming in today at work! Dorky and nice and over-eager, I know the feeling, aw man. Reminds me of more than one person I know. Does that happen more often when you move along more? People starting to blur into types. I AM UNDECIDED ABOUT THIS.
- Things that made me smile: talking with
themoononastick about when it is acceptable to use Brit spelling (obviously the answer is when you're writing AUs where a critical mass of the main characters are British), and her telling me about the AU where Z and Charlotte went to university in London. *_____________*
- I really like the dress I wore to work today, oh man. Dark blue sleeveless and edged with black cotton lace! It is a little bit too big for me (it was my sister's), but I love the skirt. Sometimes I think hey, when did clothes gain the ability to make me happy? with somewhat mild surprise because I never did bother when I was younger, but now they do. I feel my life has been greatly enriched as a result.
- They have put up Chinese New Year decorations at my estate! Usually I don't like them when they're too much, all that red and glitter and gaudiness and also irritating songs. (This sounds like my unnatural prejudice against Christmas I suspect.) But they've put up fairy lights! This I can get on, it looked slightly magical when I walked my way in.
- Today and yesterday I was struck by the urge to skip while walking home from the bus stop near my home. I DID NOT DISOBEY THAT URGE.
- That's how my life is, today. How is yours?

Yesterday was fine though--good even. My friend who is kind of the Brendon in my head kept being weird and funny.
"I want sex," he said with a little wicked grin, his hand just above my knee in that place that is sorta ticklish, but sort of not.
I put my hand over his and gave it a little squeeze. "Honey, I'm the wrong gender. I'm missing parts," I told him.
He pouted.

Jessica, one of my roommates, needed a hug and instead of getting her up, he just folded himself on to her lap, knees drawn up around his ears and arms around her shoulders. They sat like that for a few moments until he sat back on his hands, legs still around her, and said, "I want to have sex in this position."
he was in true form today.

I am also jealous of your awesome-sounding dress. I'm not someone who's really into clothes, and I have no sense of style (my friends consistently asked "Wait, did you dress yourself?" if I managed to throw something together that didn't suck) but I love it when I find something that I know looks good, but that I also feel 100% comfortable in. That is the struggle.
Fairy lights! I desperately want fairy lights in my room...I'll have to purchase some today. I had some in Australia, but the electricity is different here, so...no more fairy lights, at the moment.
Skipping is never a bad thing.
My life today...well, it's still morning, but - there is a light dusting of snow over everything, it is only -7 degrees outside, and the sun is out. I have a packed day - applying to universities, writing a resume, doing reserach on where to go/what to do in New York (8 days!!!), looking for places to possibly submit my resume to, and buying a birthday gift for my mother. So. I am actually looking forward to today!

As per British spelling -- lol, I have never, never worried about spelling. Seriously, it's hard enough getting patterns of speech right, never mind anything else :)
Aaaaaaand that sounds like a lovely dress, dude! The clothes-making-you-happy thing is so awesome when you realise it, right? There is nothing like the feeling of being the pretty girl walking down the street, or whatever :)
My life today is having two lectures cancelled next Thursday, which means a seminar being cancelled the following Wednesday, which just so happens to be my 21st birthday. My smug face for a whole extra day off, let me show you it \o/

Also, that resolution is the best resolution. I'm getting myself in gear to check the listings, got to get my new year's run of shows going.
YAY SKIPPING
My day was kind of all over the place. I woke up at ass o' clock in the morning and threw up everywhere for no particular reason, and then dragged myself to school for a hand-in which was very anti-climactic. Then I went and hung out with my friend who works in a very highend jewellery and handbags boutique for a couple of hours and amused myself by trying on pretty much everything uber sparkly. I had to hide under the counter whenever someone came in. It was rad.
Highpoints of the day: my pompadour was super high and super long today, a feat of structural engineering, I had a shot of irish cream in my coffee and I am currently working on an awesome new manicure idea involving three shades of glitter.
...dear god but my life is dull.

It doesn't hurt that I'm either writing in non English-speaking fandoms or in British fandoms. o/ THOUGH GK IS CURRENTLY KILLING ME, SEEING AS I AM TRYING TO WRITE A STARDUST!GK AU, WHICH, YOU KNOW, VICTORIAN ENGLAND, WHEREAS THE MARINES ARE SO AMERICAN. *flails at you*
I feel my life has been greatly enriched as a result.
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA this has happened to me with shoes. I am a D:-face.
omg CNY~~~~~~~~~
Uhhh seeing as today has just started to me I rolled out of bed because my brain was being hyperactive and wouldn't let me sleep. Then I brushed my teeth with my eyes squinched shut, did fifty sit-ups, and made bruschetta for breakfast. NOM NOM.
