Fucking Hell

Scott Dooley.

I am genuinely sad.

I am now in a mourning mode. It's like he's dead or something...but I just feel as if a part of me is going...cause I ALWAYS listen to him. What am I gonna listen to now? There's nothing good. Not even Alex Dyson's lovely voice can compare. Ugh, Dools. I was sad about Robbie Buck leaving but I never ever expected you to leave. This is absolutely ridiculous. It makes no sense!

Where the hell are you going? I'm crossing my fingers you're not off to commercial radio, cause that'd be shit. You were made for Triple J. What better place than here?

Gosh,

still so angry

still so sad.

Dools, it's not bad!

I'm actually really cut that Dools is not presenting the Drive show or hosting any more on Triple J. It's such a shame, I really liked listening to him...even though his jokes weren't always funny or that he wasn't the coolest or whatever.

I listened to Dools religiously during my exam periods, in the early mornings when I suffered from insane insomnia (O HAI ALLITERATION), on lonely bus/train rides....and every other day when I just grew tired of listening to my music. His talk show was entertaining and I always looked forward to his podcasts....my only way of accessing his talk show, since I didn't have FM radio on my until now. And when I actually did have FM radio on my phone, I tuned into triple j today to hear such shocking news. Why Dools? Why?

Listening to triple j will never be the same. I loved his dick jokes and stupidity. His segments were ingenious, full of humour and plain entertainment. I will miss Dools so much...it's not that I don't like the Doctor, but Dools..Oh Dools, the best.

Hoppípolla

Takk... forever my favourite Sigur Ros release.

All the songs on it are absolutely breathtaking.

I've been posting rather sporadically on this blog as of late. There hasn't been any structure whatsoever, more like little snippets from like stupid little, uninteresting life. Anyhow, lately I have been feeling so much wanderlust. I find myself trawling travel websites and searching flickr for the ultimate getaway. Life has been so busy that I long for a holiday elsewhere, rather than where I am at right now....

It's the middle of assessment week and I find myself always blogging or if not, just procrastinating as a result of pure exhaustion. And yes, I procrastinate on facebook as well....that's what every student does nowadays innit? But really...I'm honestly getting tired of facebook...it's just that people are so close to each other, it's sort of overwhelming.. And I am getting so sick and tired of seeing these groups people join and become a fan of. Joining groups with outlandish statements was such a long time ago...I think people have ought to move on... Oh, and facebook, forever being so transparent in my eyes, allowing me to metaphorically see through some people's intentions. I don't know, but I feel as though everyone has double standards in real life and on facebook. They may be someone in real life but a totally different person when interacting with others online. And the thing is, due to the transparency of interaction amongst social networks, I have started to realise that people try extremely hard to be someone...that they strive to be. It's a strange thing to be witnessing it all...and I should be honest, that I have done that in the past. But really, what's the point. Are we seriously just trying to prove to someone out there, that we are someone we're really not? Are you just so desperate and hungry for some attention? It's times like these that I just want to live out in the countryside, hiking by day and slumbering by night.

Sometimes, I just want to flee.

Read my Mind.

I pull up to the front of your driveway

with magic soaking my spine.
Can you read my mind?

"Top date ideas"

Taken from tumblr.

1. go on a search for as many good climbing trees as possible, climb as high as you both can in all of them, compile photo evidence

2. go to a major chain bookstore and leave notes to future readers in copies of your favorite books

3. have her dress up as a ghost and you dress up us pacman. walk around downtown holding hands, and whenever anyone sees you two, pretend to be embarrassed, and run off screaming “wocka wocka wocka.”

4. create photo evidence suggesting that you went on an adventure that didn’t really happen

5. dress up as superheroes and stop at least one petty crime “ie. jaywalking, littering….”

6. build forts out of furniture and blankets and wage war with paper airplanes.

7. try and visit as many people as you can in one night and turn as many things inside their apartment upside down as you can without them noticing.

8. go to the airport, get the cheapest, soonest departing flight to anywhere when you show up, and stay there for a weekend.

9. write a piece of fiction together. outside at a cafe. ask strangers when you get stuck.

10. dress to the nines, pretend to be married, and test drive very expensive vehicles at an auto dealership.

11. do the lamest tourist thing in your area that you have both secretly wanted to do forever. have an unabashed good time!

12. in the middle of the night, drive to the beach, so you arrive just as the sun is rising. have a breakfast picnic, then fall asleep together. bring a sun umbrella.

13. drive somewhere unknown and have dinner in a city you’ve never been to. with fake names.

14. go to a minor league baseball game under the stars. tell each other stories about how bad you are at athletics. randomly cheer for both teams. eat lots of cracker jack.

15. go around the city with sidewalk chalk and draw hearts with equations inside on random things

16. walk around a city and perform short silent plays in front of security cameras

17. with camera and pair of boots, make photo-log of a day in the life of the invisible man.

18. walk around the city all night and find a place to eat breakfast at dawn

19, go to a restaurant and convince the cook to create something completely new for you.

20. rent a movie you’ve never seen before. set on mute and improvise dialogue.

Too Young, Phoenix

sweet disposition

so stay there
cause i'll be comin over
and while our bloods still young
it's so young
it runs
and we won't stop til it's over
won't stop to surrender

I could burst a million bubbles.

Bullet Proof..I Wish I Was by Radiohead

I wish I could openly thank a person for their kind words to me that have managed to inevitably pick me up back from my lows. They were probably never intended to be such 'motivating' messages but being the person I am, I have taken it in that way. I guess he only spoke of them to be kind and polite...but thanks to you...seriously.

And, oh gosh, half of the holidays have passed by already. I can't believe it, I feel as if I haven't done anything productive. I must endeavour to make the most of my time that I have remaining. I want to be on top of all my subjects now, I am sick of getting mediocre marks. Physics, oh dearie me. I am still considering whether I should continue with my studying of such a crappy subject. Heh, I wanna ask somebody for some advice...seeing they seem as though they know what they're talking about. Nevertheless, I know I will figure something out, just give me some time.

The holidays always manages to bring out the hermit within me. Ha! See the irony? Anyway, I'm starting to see how freaking plastic so many people around me are. Facebook and the like. I'm starting to see past it all and I feel, very out of the loop. Sometimes, I wish I could just confide into someone who is trustworthy, concerning all my thoughts and worries. I'm so insecure out here on my own...I guess I feel lost. Direction-less? Is that it? Ugh, I don't know. My mind is a mess.
