The Lessons You Wish You Had Learnt

Mar 27, 2007

My dear Yasmine wanted me to update my blog more often.

So here I am. Updating.

And today's lessons are as follows:

1. If there is a story waiting to be written, it will have to be written when you have absolutely no time to write it. So write it before you expect yourself to have it written, or write off your day.

2. Do not eat at an Italian restaurant, even if it promises cheap pasta, 30 minutes before your film is due to start. Because the food will only arrive 25 mins later.

3. There is a limit to the amount of caffeine a human can consume.

Goodnight.

EDIT: When I said goodnight, I really meant masturbation break. And still the caffeine runs in my veins, like Plasmodium vivax, sapping me of my will to live. I'm sitting here, listening to Camera Obscura, and it's really quite good, but some of it is too depressing.

I won’t be seeing you for a long while
I hope it’s not as long as a country mile
I feel lost

Also I wish I had a vocabulary.

You can't see that I'm just the same as all the stupid people you hate
I'm not saying I'm free from blame because I need all the friends I can get

I'm not saying it's the best band ever. Like Belle And Sebastian, Camera Obscura can get dreadfully twee.

Writing this is making me feel like I care about music again.
