Chocolate and Cigarettes

Dont know how.. Mysteriously acquired the album in my itunes.. Angus and Julia Stone..

Living on a diet of Chocolates & Cigarettes
I wanna call you again
Ill drink tea sometimes when its cold
This is getting old
I call you again

Still too young to fail, too scared to sail away
But one of these days Ill grow old
And Ill grow brave and Ill go
One of these days

There's one last uneaten thorntons, still neatly tucked in its packet.. And a pack of em cocktails.. Untouched.. A diet indeed perhaps..

Instincts

'Follow your instinct' they say..

What if what you feel is an instinct is not an instinct.. what if.. it's something else altogether.. Or it is merely.. not an instinct.. but a fictional creation of your imaginary mind..

Remember Remember the 5th of November..

.
Of course I remember.. Along with a million memories..

Not the 5th of 2008.. but the 5th of 2007.. when I thought Guy Fawkes was Guy Fox.. same diff.. but oh well.. my 5th of november 2007 probably saw me in A129 after a lecture.. sat facing the window.. and writing to someone who grew to become very dear to me.. Innocently, I wrote about Guy Fox.. later to be corrected to Guy Fawkes.. or perhaps I might have written on the next day..

That night the bunch of us climbed them walls.. Walking the sidelines of the river Ouse.. stopping at the cobblestone chairs.. later to discover our way to fulford and heslington village.. The green knitted jumper, the brown hat..

fast forward 2 years own.. I am older, not quite wiser.. and I woke up to Remember, Remember the 5th of November in my head.. How could I forget.. what I slept and woke up to.. Indeed perhaps I shall remember..

But no Guy Fawkes, some things, perhaps we dont want to remember.. Even if it's for the fireworks..

To be or not to be

I laughed out loud! And to think this came from my reading list for the week!

To do is to be (Marx)
To be is to do (Sartre)
Do be do be do (Sinatra)

Emotions..

a thousand emotions flutter, mostly unknown.. yet felt..

i guess this heart aint made of stone.. or merely just blood..

.

Where am I going?

.
Seriously. Not where my foot takes me. Nor where my head is. Or my heart. Where are they all going? Where am I going?

.

lectures..

Not quite the nagging kind.. some times, rather amusing.. such as:

"Smoked a lot of dope, downed a lot of acid- a very charismatic man"

Roger Burrows on Sacks..

Better:

"1. you're not going to get 1st class
2. wear a condom"
