thunderstorms on a daily basis is almost cool. emphasis on *almost*.

: walked into a deserted mall. sometime at night. the foodcourt and to a japanese stall. where i had sticky rice with black sauce and raw salmon. went to the cashier and there was this english guy in front of me. we exchanged hellos and i sat far away from him. went to get myself a drink and when i returned, he sat next to me. engaged in a conversation about england. i asked if he knew jason slack from london. he didn't answer that but said that londoners were really snobby. not too long later, another girl joined us. i don't know who she is and after a while, we (me and guy) found her a tad annoying so somehow i told her to leave. but before that i got her email address or perhaps a phone number and promised to get in touch with her. suddenly me and guy are at my house, in my room and we're listening to records. he said he's the owner of mtv in 67 nations of the world. i wasn't impressed but i did ask him if he ever met craig david and he said yes. he picked out a honeywell lp and we were about to make out. so we were lying in bed and suddenly mother walked in. we denied everything of course and then he left and asked me to call him. he also left me 56$ for a pack of cigarettes i bought him. after his departure, i realized that he was actually the drummer of australian hardcore band 'identity theft'. he was bald but not as *huge* as the drummer. :

whatever.

there's a new guestbook. do sign it to let me know you're here.
i would be very grateful. thanks very much.

my stereo was sent for repairs yesterday.
fingers crossed all will be alright.
i'm so very nervous.
will have to depend on discman and walkman for now.

: watching formula one at about midnight from my window. with some other unknown kids. but before the race, there were some "cheerleaders". ranging from ages 8-12 yrs. mix of boys and girls and they look more like zombies. one of the spectators was possessed and in order to get the devil out, i stepped on her left toe and she screamed and screamed and her eyes gradually faded from bloodshot red to super pure white to normal. :

yeah, that was a nightmare. i was supposed to wake up at 4. but decided not to. at 530, someone poked my back. i'm not sure who. maybe it was an angel. maybe not. i finally made the effort an hour later.

can't wait till the day is over and i'm gonna be on "...holl..lee..dayyyy...".
bring on the easter break!!!

sound = making a dub of the get up kids bootleg
(of the show i went to in melbourne - april 2000.)
*for the makeoutmedia kids.
surprisingly i can still mouth some of the lyrics! woo!

the highlight of last night :

: down syndrome kids. they keep appearing in every scene. somehow they would just appear and not go away. in one scene, it would be about obscure record stores with red sofas and blonde haired homosexuals and just at the corner, there'll be a d.s. kid staring right through me. or i'll be in psychology class and another d.s kid would be standing in front. just standing there. motionless. :

no, i don't think i have ds phobia at all.
it's just almost creepy why i'm dreaming about them.

: oh and there was this girl who appeared on mtv. and she was showing her teeth and for some reason, i held out the remote and pressed the repeat button so i could see that videoclip over and over and yes, she has d.s.... :

sound = desaparecidos 3 track cd sampler
(conor oberst = awesome)

*he* has dreams.

: i had a dream last night where we were hanging out again. and it was just like last time, really natural and sweet and hand holdy :) i am not sure where it was, it felt like england, but it was sunny, so maybe it wasn't :) i don't recall too much of it. i remember sitting at a table eating something with some other people (maybe some family members) and holding your hand. later you went a show but i chose not to go for some reason! you came back and said it was really good and you gave me a distro list and it had this split 7" with usurp synapse and some other band i can't remember and i was grr that i didn't go. :

: i was in this big field with that guy 'follow the bear' off the fracture forum, and there was some guy performing stunts in a strange balloon, he would dive down and nearly hit the ground and take off again. then he let this rope down and ftb jumped on it and got swirled all over the field. crazy. it went on for about 10 minutes then the balloon pilot stopped and i woke up. :

XXX

: tiny stuffed monkeys, alter egos, skiing trips and airports. :

so we watched 2 films yesterday.
1240hrs - milleur espoir feminin
1510hrs - kandahar

the time sessions should've been reversed or i wouldn't be so depressed.
kandahar is a slow, draggy and very disturbing.

sound = party of helicopters 'space...and how sweet it was' (2xcd)

i've been inventing food again.

: the other day, i stepped into my dream bookstore/library. and it had every single title i was after. instead, i was somehow directed to the book of chocolate shoes. when i took it, the shoes came to life. they were rather yummy as well. :

: last nite, i was on some art expedition and had apple biscuit ice cream.
they looked like super huge swirly lollipops. :

(i) later i am going to watch a movie.
it could be an iranian one or a cartoon.
what do you think? correct answer will win a prize.
(ii) assignments and presentations due next week.
and i don't know what the questions are. typical.
(iii) received a monstrous package from sncl distro 2 days ago.
all of you should join the mailing list and buy stuff.
the dude who runs it is king. hail hail.

songs of the week: fog by sodastream + what is sleep? by karate

: it's always the same these days. unknown faces, unknown buildings. strange occurences. it must be all due to the current state of mind. * :

* chaos confusion and nothingness

although once,
: the X watch was commercialized and i was none too happy. and i ran across the road to a girl in search of an 80's discotheque and met kids from high school. :

scribble.nu will be discontinuing it's services after may 1 2002.
so that means: reconstruction of grysweater, greyskll, greydays.
will probably shift it over to greysweater.envy.nu.
but. i will think of something else. i will.

currently, the greysweater book society has 3 members including myself. we sit around and drink tea and read random pages of catcher in the rye. membership is free and you need not necessarily consume tea. it could be hot cocoa too.

grand prix malaysia yesterday was better than last year's.
and i got sunburnt despite the abundance of sunblock.

sound = post rock mix tape from february 2000
(the aasee lake, 90 day men, paul newman, etc.)
