I remember good old days before internet, just me and Fashion TV. Today I learned that there's a middle-class version of Babestation. Sasha Grey has her own channel now?

Not sure why the bashing by media of Can Do It. If Dubois says illness we leave it at that. If Winx had colic, you wouldn't do it.
(Not saying that CDI has it but....)

I'm kinda looking forward to move living with this female friend of mine this summer. She's constantly been saying that we should form a (shoegaze) band and I really think it could be a good environment for me to live in, at least musically. She basically has identical music taste with me but she's much more into electronic music compared to me, and also makes that kind of music herself and is well inside the local scene which is cool.
Songwriting wise, it'd be nice to have someone who knows how to program drums/beats properly and has a keyboard for synth lines which is something I've been wanting to try. I could learn from her as well. I've been listening to Yo La Tengo lately and I've been thinking of leaving my guitar on the background for a change and instead focus more on the bass-synth-beat axis which is the main element in many of their songs. I've already got a couple of interesting bass riffs that could carry a song I think, gonna be saving them for the future...
The only problem is that last time we saw I felt like there was some chemistry between us and even though I always saw her more as a friend, I started becoming more and more open to the possibility of it developing to something else, especially when I moved back to UK coz I started reflecting back to the moments with her. But now it seems she's dating someone else while I was away, which is totally fine to me coz I was with other people during that time as well and at least now I don't have to wonder if there's something going on between us. But still, I'm not sure if I'm totally over her either so it could feel strange to start living with her now. She still seems to want me there though which is nice and I know she'd be a good flatmate because she totally gets me (she once told me I remind her a lot of her father (who introduced her to all the cool music apparently) and that it's nice to hang out with me because it's almost like seeing what he was like in his youth). I'm definitely not a "normal" person but around her I've never felt like I have to keep my guards up coz she likes that about me so having someone like that as a flatmate could be great.

Sat in the sunshine reading One Hundred Years of Solitude. What do you think of it? I read it last September. Just finished it, after six days of obsessive reading. I loved it. It wasn't perfect, what with the convoluted story and repeated Aurelianos (would have been lost if it didn't come with a family tree), but the mixture of love and politics and magic-realism was brilliant. The writing is so dense, and the themes of it are so heady that it's hard to think of another word than dizzying to describe it. I love the multiple-generations approach. I loved the characters, especially Amaranta and Aureliano Segundo. I loved the sex, and the mysteries, and the magic of it. Probably one of my favourite books I've ever read, to be honest. What did you think?

Happy Aussie birthday to JMB. As I said in the book, champion and legend. He's used to this too, stroke and a broken leg. Coup de pied quand c'est fini JMB!

Anyone here from Ireland? How's it living there? Not like I will have the possibility of moving out of this country any time soon, I'm just curious. Would, let's say, Dublin, be a good city for a student to live in? I've heard good things about Ireland recently, and I wonder if it's true what they say.

What did you think? There were times early on when I was struggling with it but I persisted with it and found it so compelling, and I finished it pretty quickly after that. Loved the magical realism too and the rise and fall of Macondo. I love multi-generational novels, I’m re-reading East Of Eden (my favourite book) and just finished Pachinko by Min Jin Lee. The latter is relatively new, but I loved it and thoroughly recommend it. A book about identity primarily and a family’s struggle to come to terms with their South Korean heritage living in Japan.

So we left La Mancha headed out for higher planes, me and Sancho Panza, Rocinante at the reigns, looking for adventure until the windmills say...
You'll never be lonely, you'll never be lonely ever again. I heard you never get wet in Spanish rain.
So they sent the doctor For examining my brain He said "he's not too clever" So when the world, when the world just seems A little bit too cruel Gonna make one better.
So tell that princess Tell that princess "hide down the drain" Tell that princess she'll never be lonely again I heard you never get wet in Spanish rain.
