The three posts below contain songs that have helped me get by recently. Anyone who knows me well knows that music is a big part of my life. Even though I am not a musician, it helps me express myself in ways that I may not normally be able to.Yes, music can be sad, but I tend not to think of certain songs as depressing. It's all very cathartic. I mope along with Morrissey or I raise hell

Life changes. Wow.So it was my birthday this weekend. I wasn't exactly in top form. I had a lot on my mind but even though we didn't do a lot (my fault for being indecisive), I'm glad that I was able to hang out with friends and forget about things for a bit.I'm twenty four now. That's six years until thirty. I can live with that.I think my music taste is changing again. I seem to go through

So, where are we? Same ol', same ol'. Work and play. Pretty excited at the moment as when I went into town today I thought I might as well check the shops on the off chance that they might have the new Pet Shop Boys album early. It doesn't officially come out until next Monday in the UK, but they don't ever seem to care about release dates here in the Netherlands and just put stuff out

Well, loads of things going on, but at the same time, not a lot. Just been really busy with my course.It will be nice when (if ever) money is not a problem. Spent a good part of yesterday consolidating student loans and a good part of today chasing down money that was owed back to me from De Key. As they do, they forgot to pay me, so I had to go to the graduate office for a short-term loan.

ATM Originally uploaded by mantooth316.So Queensday was pretty good. Chris came over from Manchester and we all had a fun time. Especially once we found the Anal Terror box. Maybe I should explain?On Queensday, which is the biggest national Dutch holiday, there are many people on the street selling things. It's kind of like a city-wide garage sale, only there are no garages, only canals. So

Reports of my demise have been greatly exaggerated. I am alive and (un)well in Italy at the moment, attending Spring School in Gradisca D'Isonzo. I have been here since March 30th. Before that I was in Manchester for a week and had the opportunity to catch up with friends.I will be here until Friday, at which point I will head to Venice and stay the night. I am looking forward to it as I have

Snowy Amsterdam Originally uploaded by mantooth316.It's been a weird day today. I'm sick, so I missed class and slept for most of it. But around 12:30, it started snowing heavily, probably more so than I'd seen since I'd been here. It kept that up for a while. What was weird was that within in half-hour it seemed, blue sky started appearing. The rest of the day was pretty mild, but then

I'm gradjimacated! Sort of! Well, that's the certificate I received from Manchester. Next stop: January 2007 and my UvA degree!It's snowing here in Amsterdam today. It looks lovely, but I wish I could stay inside and watch it. Need to go get some food for later. Guess we'll see how it goes... :D

As always, it's been awhile, I know. Just been busy enjoying being back in Manchester for the time as well as having been bogged down with essays. Not much to report!Movies I've seen... not as many as I would have liked. I saw Brokeback Mountain a few weeks back as it was one of those films you kind of have to. It was good, but very slow paced. Will watch it again at some point and see what
