Do you ever feel that things have to get really bad before they start to get better?
Well I do. And things are getting better for me. I'm making new friends at work, I've made some decisions about me, and the other night when I was out I got a free drink. And it wasn't even spiked.
Now all I have to do is get a hair cut, I'm thinking about getting a fringe, decisions, decisions...

Friends
I am missing university and all my friends a lot more than i thought i would, in fact it is getting me down, so an award to a fabulous friend who text me yesterday at just the right moment is for Jenny. Thanks Jenny, I really needed that.
Also, I've realised that the boy trouble is all my own doing, and so i'm just going to forget about the whole thing, and be glad for him as my friend (also he's way to much work to have as a boyfriend). So no more biy trouble. woo!

Comedy
I love comedy. The more surreal the better, so when I was at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival (here after known as "the fringe") I was in heaven. Even more so than usual as I was with my comedy geek friend Charlie. One of the shows he suggested to go and see was "the lost tapes of Tom Bell" we never made it, we were far to busy sleeping at that time of the day to do anything (2pm just in case you're wondering) however, God obviously hates me as it is on again in London for a one off show, and I can't make it. So you may as well go it's at Ryan's Bar in North London on the 11th Semptember, go and enjoy.
It's my baby brother's birthday on the 7th September, so I got him some DVDs (he wanted clothes, but dammit he owns more clothes than I do) now the DVD I bought him are pure comedy genius, the show is called "look around you" and it's one of the funniest things i've ever seen, especially if you've ever seen an educational programme at school.

Naked Strangers
Well, yesterday's post was particularly whiney, and for that I apologise, so here is a story from Awesome Australia&trade
Whilst travelling about Awesome Australia&trade to save money me and my freind decided to stay in hostels, hostels with dormitories.. Now most of the time this was fun, and a lot of the time it was an insight into how strange people really are. We had just arrived in Sydney and we checked intoour hostel staright away. Upon entering there is already a girl in the room, we all smile politely, but before we get so much the chance to say "Hi, my name is Anna, what's yours?" She strips off her top and starts pointing at her back. At this point I realise she's German, and can't really speak English, frustrated at me not responding to her, she starts to take off her trousers. I make some feeble attempt at stopping her, but being British I mainly just begin to blush, I really hadn't expected to walk into a porn movie.
I finally figure out that she had had an allergic reaction to something yesterday, and she wanted me to heck her for a rash, but at this point all I want to do is have a vodka (or perhaos a post coital cigarette) so I murmer some words of encouragement and she covers herself back up again. Thankfully that's the last time she strips for me.
The End

The trouble with boys.....
...is that no matter how hard you study body language books or avidly read cosomopolitan you can't be sure whether they fancy you or not. Now as it happens I don't usually mind, if it's some random I meet and we hit it off and I quite fancy him I'd probably just try to pull him, you get your answer oretty fast then. If it was an acquatinace who I'd got a little crush on, with my amazing self esteem I'd prpbably just presume he didn't fancy me and continue flirting and dreaming. But my problem at the minute is that it's one of my best freinds, and I can't even be sure that I fancy him (although I'm reasonably certain that I do).
So, when it's one of your best friends you automatically expect certain things from them, that you might otherwise use as an indication of whether or not he fancies me. Such as when I text him he replies, even if it's a pointless text message (however if I text him at the same time as my other friends he is always the first to reply...)
On top of this I am now a few hours away from where he lives, I don't want to rock the boat, and he never texts me with random pointless stuff to start a conversation I am utterly confused, and I know the answer is probably he doesn't fancy me, so I should stop moping but it's way easier to obsess andblame him for being to chicken to declare his undying love for me.

Why I hate cobbelstones (and Kama)
In Edinburgh they love cobbelstones, the whole city is paved in them, one problem with this is that when cobbelstones get wet, they become slippery. Add to this the fact that Edinburgh is in Scotland and very very hilly and you have a recipe for disastor (disastor music should be playing in your head now).
On the second day of me being in Edinburgh this August, me and my friends needed food, so we made our dutiful trek to Tesco's and picked up some goodies (read this as pasta and alcohol) on the way back we had to navigate a particularly steep hill which was paved with cobbelstones, after it had just been raining. Half way down and my friend falls over, now obviously I did what any good friend did, I laughed my arse off. Unfortunately kama wasn't too happy about this, and so I dutiful fell over in an extreemly comic manner.
Luckily I didn't break anything (read this as the bottles of booze I was carrying) and I have a sense of humour, I just felt bad for the man who passed, who obviously couldn't decide if I needed to be helped to my feet. In the end he decided no.
