she's a brick
and i'm drowning slowly..
So today was really awful. Firstly, the bus driver got lost and went the wrong way. And then got lost trying to find the right way. So I was half an hour late for work. So, provincial buses, you owe me three quid.
Then. An argument. You know, arguments bother me a lot. I remember when I was young enough to still be walked to primary school, and occasionally the morning conversation would turn to an argument. And I would storm through the school gates angry and upset, and then instantly wish I hadn't. The black cloud of an argument would hang over me all day, and I would sit at the window, wondering where my mum was, if she was okay, and feeling sorry. I used to get that horrible stomach ache in the pit of my gut, of dread and regret, and want to run out of the school gates and find my mum at home and say I'm sorry and make things right.
Not even buying some ladybird imitation Converse at Woolworth's made it better. These shoes are exactly like Chucks, stitching and all, but with red sides, a green tongue, and turquoise trimming. Like the best Chucks you've ever seen, but for £3.50! That's right! £3.50!
But still the black cloud.

A letter
"
To You,
I know that life is tougher for you than most. I know that you find it harder than most to catch with capable hands the everyday heartbreaks that life offers up. But what I will say is this, it works both ways, my closest confidante. There will be nights when you find it hard to breathe because of a comment that many would brush off as hearsay. There will be mornings you can barely drag yourself from your bed because of a broken friendship when many would have moved on; an adultery when often people can shrug it off. But try and be thankful that you have the mental and emotional capacity to consider things so thoroughly and sensitively. Whilst you have an inability to let things pass without over analysation, you also have the inability to walk past a puddle without noticing that ray of sunlight hidden inside it, you find it impossible to not appreciate the beauty of a summer breeze or the smell after the rain has fallen. And one day, one day, there will be days when you can't bear to stay in bed because the sky is so beautiful, and it will be impossible to breathe because you can't concentrate on all the tiny factors that make life so overwhelming. So, consider it not a burden, but a hidden talent my friend.
"
heaven's not a place that you go when you die, it's that moment in life when you actually feel alive - so live for the moment and take my advice live by every word, love's completely real so forget anything that you ever heard, and live for the moment now...

my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard
.... and damn right, it's better than yours..
I remembered last night why I rarely go out and get trashed, or go out to clubs lately... picture the scene; two workmates have invited you out, looks to be quite a fun evening until one gets horribly drunk, (horribly) and starts shouting "fuck the police" at the top of her voice, spilling drinks over everyone, phlegming on people, taking her bra off and pole dancing on the staircase of goblets... not very cool at all.
I thought Nexus might be a bit better until we realised it was indie night; cue mullets and scarves, lots of dubious dancing and a playlist that involved Kings Of Leon, Franz Ferdinand and, for the love of God, Pulp. I decided it was then time to go home and the taxi cost me a tenner. Not the best evening I've ever had!
Today I ate a KFC and now I feel sick. I always feel sick.
I got Taking Back Sunday tickets!! Yeahh!!
Interesting entry.

I'm not good at all this love stuff, and all these games. So if you say we're going to do something, and then you don't text me, am I supposed to message you a hundred times asking you what the hell's going on and if you're sleeping with someone else like I think you probably are, or play it cool and pretend I'm not going out of my mind when I actually am. I can't play it cool, I am so utterly rubbish at any attempt to be cool and aloof. Why am I so rubbish? Why does my imagination wind me up so... I have this vague feeling that I ought to tell you where to shove it.. Why doesn't someone love me like I love everybody else... and where is summer? I want summer! Nothing interesting happened this week apart from there was a battle of the bands and I was bored and everyone got drunk and did loads of drugs so I went home. And my bro just put a blink poster on his wall and it reminded me, holy shit, i love tom delonge.

i've been sleeping too much, and i looked my dream up in my new dream book and it said "cancel all plans to travel, be careful, your life is about to reach dire consequences. make some big changes." so. whoah. i know it's just a book, but i was slightly disturbed by it; i've been coasting along feeling like lots is wrong, but not really sure what to do, and apparently that's been manifesting itself in my subconscious too, which is.. scary.
at university we've been learning about the holocaust, and i've been realising how naive i am about everything. it is also so tragic and terrible, sort of puts my life into perspective when I think of how much I moan.
here's a silly boy haiku to finish this sad entry off.
since christmas you have got emo hair and a scarf i think i love you

(Anonymous) 2004-02-05 06:20 (link) Select oh dear god, you are not the amount of comments you get slightly attention seeking, huh. why not have a journal for yourself? not just for hopeful leagues of male admirers? (Reply to this) (Thread) Re: entirelysmooth 2004-02-06 10:30 (link) Select firstly, 'anonymous', and let's start by saying how big and brave you are for not leaving your name. obviously you have the sort of really interesting and fulfilling life where you have to go and make jibes at other people. i feel really sorry for you. i didn't make you read it, in fact, stay the hell away from my journal you vacuous insipid twat. go wrap your car around a tree, loser.

yesyesyes singing and recording and snow and cold hands. hot sheets and breath and sticky hands. houmous and toast and the tesco delivery man. the walk home is a killer. ice and broken hearts. snow beneath my feet, stuffed beneath your wings. castle walls and wine and making fingermouse out of paper. your smile in black and white, matt with white borders. secret poems. good friends. lovers. the sultry sound of soft guitar and sometimes, roni size, very loud. it's true.
i slide my hands down your back as i dream about killing you.. this, this, this is far too crazy. darling
the flu has made me mental.

15..? Pffft.
I have had the flu for the last few days; cue lots of lying in bed staring at the ceiling thinking and overanalysing minute things. When you look at your life through a microscope everything seems wrong, everything seems like I should have been rid of it much sooner. I feel like my life is spent meandering along, making do with friends, and university, and the sitations that I find myself in. I can't think of anything that is perfect at the moment, friends, university, even my mental, physical and emotional health is at it's worst in a long, long time. The last time I was truly happy? Probably when I went away last week- a breath of fresh air from humdrum Southampton life; the start of something new? I thought I'd made all the right moves and yet.. "let's just be friends, you could be the ultimate girl friend.." One space between the words, one heartbreak.. again. Meh.
On a brighter note, it snowed today :] Pictureage!

Dinosaur To see a dinosaur in your dream, symbolizes an outdated attitude. You may need to discard your old ways of thinking and habits.
To dream that you are being chased by a dinosaur, indicates your fears of no longer being needed or useful. Alternatively, being chased by a dinosaur, may reflect old issues that are still coming back to haunt you.
Dreams are strange.. I wish i knew more about them..
Brand New tonight! I am wetting myself in anticipation..

The wind beats against me, the storm pounding my fragile hull. My hair floats haphazardly around my shoulders like a movie star in an open top. I try to imagine the harsh winds carrying the scent of cigarettes from my hair and clothes, but the smoke has embedded itself in the fibres of my coat and scarf, and sunk into the pores of my skin. I think of your lazy fingers gripping a cigarette in the bar, watching the curls of smoke drift towards the ceiling and dance beneath the UV lights. This insalubrious scent is a small price to pay for that closeness, our legs touching, so that I can feel the contours of your hip, the rise and fall of your knee and the downward arc of your shin underneath your jeans. I know from a journey well travelled that this is where it begins, a brush of skin, an awkward smile, only to awake weeks later from love’s uncertain dream to turn around and look down the tracks with heartbreak and regret. I will choose not to fall in love tonight, to cast aside your eyes in the darkness, the feel of skin on skin, and to take my coat and leave. No more will I dabble in heartbreak, buy shares in the game of tragedy. And I am outside watching the pavement darken under cover of rain, watching hanging baskets swing in the storm. And I’m falling.

Today i have finished university for two and a half weeks. i don't know what the hell i'm going to do with over half a month off. i figure I'll do what I always plan to do, work on my languages, read a few books, better myself at guitar. You can probably learn a lot in two weeks, do a lot in half a month. But odds are, I won't. A friend has an idea since he read a book called The Dice Man. He made me buy some dice and we're supposed to select options for a few days, like going away, or seeing places and doing things we'd like to do. He says it's exciting and empowering to leave the day to day decisions we make to fate. I'm not so sure I love that idea. Plus, half the time he makes me so angry I could almost kill him. Anyway. I have had a creative day, sticking and writing and scribbling in my new diary. Why am I so obsessed with diaries and photographs and recording my day to day life when, for the most part, it's a tragedy? rosie xx

... why is it that i care so much when i shouldnt care at all..?
i cried on the bus about nothing and work was awful and i'm on the verge of tears and it's stupid, so stupid and i'm worried that you're mad and i don't care cos' you're ridiculous and i don't want to care but i do and all i can think of is how to make you love me and i have this feeling that if you heard your song or read your poem or if i took you for a walk or if you just gave me one chance, then i could make you need me but you don't and it's killing me.
and i hate my knees...

So, new years. The Registry pub, then back to a friend's for a house party. It seems no planned get togethers can run smoothly anymore- "why is it that I care so much, when I shouldn't care at all..." I wasn't even that interested, but to find out that, as always, he prefers my best friend, was crushing. And to have other 'friends' agree that she is prettier, was worse. So, as usual, I stormed out, got the sympathy vote, always the one being consoled :( Always the one sitting by the stereo at the house party, giving anyone who didn't want to listen to Coheed the middle finger. It seems to me as it always has done, that I put people higher on my list of priorities than they do me. I like my friends a lot more than they do me most of the time. As I have noticed before, if only I was cool and aloof, if only I wasn't petrified of what would happen if I didn't ring THEM once in a while. It's just another day I feel like running away from it all...
... sometimes a man must awake, to find that really he has no one...
 You are Guybrush!!! "When I grow up, i wanna be a Pirate!!!" You're our hero...a hopeless romantic, infact you're pretty much hopeless in general, but you're so adorably sweet! You're a bit of an idealist and are gorgeous with those baby-faced looks, shame no one ever believes you're over 21... You also have a bit of a mischievous side and are always willing for adventure right...
