sunday night
: was on tour with an australian family of three. they were fair blonde blue eyed and their daughter was about 10 or 11 years old. i do not know which country or city we were in but anyway the bus stopped by the street and we headed for a comic store. we went in and it was more like a haunted palace or perhaps like dracula's (the cabaret restaurant in melbourne). we were greeted by a vampire at the entrance. i said good morning to him but he replied with good afternoon oh so effeminately. australian family went to look at clothes while i went to look at figurines. suddenly i was kidnapped by a bunch of "soldiers", one of them resembling stephen dorff - the actor. however, it was only a game and before letting me go, dorff requested to be photographed with me as i looked really mod. (what the hell.) we then left the store and daughter of about 10 or 11 years old showed me the tshirt she purchased that had many nice faces of spiderman. our next destination was a japanese restaurant and their main specialty was deep fried snakes. you sit at the table, choose your snake, and they deep fry it alive in hot oil with batter. i didn't have any. i wandered around in the adjoining hotel only to be awoken by lulu the cat who was taking pride in licking my elbow. :

saturday night
: was on holiday in china. and they had the best supermarket ever. i think i spent about two hours in there. too many variations of dr pepper and root beer. our tour group was supposed to go to vietnam next but some insisted they go to saudi first. which was such a hassle and very annoying. :

last night
: something about supermarkets again and buying lots of post rock records. i think i was married too but that one was a bit vague and non too interesting. :

today i received the blogger mug.
you rule.

sound: for some strange reason i'm listening to the lazarus plot 7".
do not ask me why.

: received a pair of ear rings from a really good friend of mine. that was so cool of her. and then i lived in a house with 5 other kids who had a problem with doing their laundry and so that was really bad and uncool of them. :

i am ill again. bastard of a nose.

sound : bright eyes / the album leaf - collaboration series no.1 7"
(fuck yeah this is good stuff.)

: had a swedish boyfriend. couldn't understand a word he said and i left him somewhere. went record shopping with andronaut which was fun, naturally. and then i had a baking session with one of my mates but i can't remember who. :

sound: belle and sebastian

: weezer was supposed to play in my neighbourhood. it was one of those mtv surprise things. but then it didn’t happen and all these ska-punk bands arrived instead. in another scene, n sync came over and performed in a mall and sang in indonesian. that was like really odd. and grandmother was pleased. :

sound : jettie / postman 7"

: too many people buying tacky pianos. red or yellow or white. seinz or steinz. it was just too odd. everything seemed like a swirl that happened in less than an hour. :

i miss you andronaut.

sound : badly drawn boy - 'once around the block'

:south african ladies making a huge fuss in the restrooms. pulling out lots and lots of tissue paper and covering up their noses. i went into one of the cubicles and just sat on the seat pondering over stuff when one of my lecturers barged in, asked me what food i hated and gave me an injection on the left shoulder. had to attend some strange college. i was made to bring home super heavy textbooks. one of them was 'intro to biology' but the contents were all philosophical bullshit. at home, i gave [R] a message by writing it on orange peel. :

i hate being ill.
i want to watch tv all day.
tv makes you stupid.
tv makes you normal.

sound : the state secedes - s/t cd

: japanese backpacks. chapels in a forest. illegal immigrants living in abandoned warehouses. art exhibitions. and half eaten chocolates. :

naturally, halloween was a day filled with cliched events.
viewing of nightmare before christmas on dvd.
scaring mother with the scream mask.
and listening to arab strap (?!)

sound : million dead - 'come on sharon' (it's sher-ron not share-run)
