                <description><![CDATA[ No... no I never did, although I have stammered on the phone before. Is there a difference? I don't know. I always thought that stuttering was where you're all l-l-l-like th-th-th-this, while stammering is like, like, kinda, like, y'know, sorta bumbling over words while you try to find what you're looking for, but managing full words... maybe I'm wrong?<br /><br />...<br /><br />I'm gonna look it up, be right back folks!<br /><br />...<br /><br />No, I was wrong, both words account for both speech difficulties, interesting.<br />So.<br />Yes... yes I have done.<br /><br />So John Hughes died this week, that really sucks. I mean, ok, he was a guy, he died, I don't really feel much either way, I'm weird with emotions, some films, games, or songs give me teary spikes, but life, not so much, but it's a sad thing. He made some good films... also home alone, but nobody's perfect. Gonna watch Breakfast Club in a bit, not actually because he died, I was going to anyway, finding out that he died was just coincidental.<br />I'm going to stop trying to be good at talking about sad things now and move on to the thing that I was excited enough to write a journal about!<br />(Not that a person dying isn't important, I just suck at talking about it.)<br /><br /><br />Element 112! Ununbium! NO! Copernicium!<br />Yes, I'm a month behind. No, I don't care. I just found out, it's news to me, that makes it worthy of rambling about. Ok? No? Then bugger off.<br />I like the name, Copernicium, it's inspiring. This element will take us to the stars!!<br />Well, ok, no. It probably won't take us to the stars, not as a propellant at least, but it's a good'un.<br />I agree with the few people that I've heard talking about it that it should be Copernicum, not Copernicium (nikum is a lot nicer than nisseum, but oh well, I probably have to contribute more (read "contribute something, anything at all") to science before they'll ask for my opinion) but to be honest, one i either way isn't a big deal.<br />Copernicium. It really is a great name. Firstly it sounds nice (although I hold to the belief that it would sound nicer without that last i, and I intent to hold that belief until I die... I believe it is healthy to hold some irrational beliefs, as long as they're irrelevant.) but a nice sound is the least important thing for a name to have. A truly great name needs to be inspirtaional.<br /><br />Nicolaus Copernicus, he's the guy the element is named after, is the man responsible for our modern view of astronomy. Yes, someone else would have come to the same realisation that he did if he hadn't, but he did, so it's worth appreciating his legacy.<br />The amazing thing is that astronomy wasn't his vocation, it was something he did in his spare time, when he wasn't busy being an artist, a diplomat, a mathematician... fucking renaissance men, they really know how to make you feel like an underachiever.<br /><br />Maybe it won't be a big deal to a lot of people, but I like the idea of naming elements after men (and women) like Copernicus, it's inspirational.<br />Chemistry class comes along, and you hear about Copernicium, Curium, Einsteinium, you want to know who they're named after, you read about these people and you're so much more inspired than reading about what inspired Francium (no offence to the French, but countries really aren't inspirational).<br />Maybe to some people it's just a name, but to me, and hopefully to others, it's a call to achievement - these guys did it, and so can we.<br />It is just a name, sure, but it's a name that commands us to reach for the stars in everything we do. Except when we're buying music, seriously, S Club 7 suck.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />There was something else.... but I forgot.<br />Note to self - make NOTES.<br />Copernicus would not be impressed. Or maybe he would? I can hope.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So, liek, errrr. Wow.<br /><br />Right now I'm listening to a podcast with some Aussies being rational, I'm a bit outraged to be honest. Not for any good reason of course, it's just that my prejudices demand that Australians be foolish and blonde, and so rationality from such a source is simply offensive.<br />(Actually, it's a pretty awesome listen.)<br />So, technically, my "listening to" info is A LIE! I have, however, been listening to some rather hideously voluminous dance music today, so it's also technically true, just... not up to the minute.<br /><br />So. Anyway. Thing.<br />I wanna bitch and rant for a bit, for several reasons.<br />Firstly, AGH, writer's blockage, there are words that want to jump to paper, but they, for some reason, refuse to take the leap! Perhaps they fear the drop between my fingers and the keyboard, perhaps they are simply shy? I can't say I care either way, the fuckers are coming out, even if it means taking a literary enema and writing shit on this screen for half an hour or so.<br />Secondly, I made the stupid mistake of watching a serial idiot's resurrection video today, and I need (NEED) to vent (no really, I am bursting at the seams with vitriol, I'm in real, tangible pain (ok, mental pain, but it's still real and tangible) here.)<br />Thirdly, it's been over a year since I wrote a journal here... over two years since I wrote a journal that is actually about anything... I kind feel like I'm wasting my account here, and there's nothing worse than having a literary outlet available and wasted.<br />Fourth? CHEESE!<br /><br /><br />STORYTIME!<br />Once upon a time, there was an unpublished writer of medium talent (I hope I'm not thinking too highly of myself here... I'd bloody well better be of (at least) medium talent, otherwise, shit) who saw a youtube video. Ten videos to be exact, but together they made a gestalt entity of untold videoness, well, it was a fairly interesting multi-part video, which provided a fair degree of amusement and insight to the hopeful writer.<br />This video? It is merely background, it was aw'ite, it was certainly a good watch, but it doesn't play much of a big part in the most epic tale that is to come.<br /><br />It seems important to note a long standing emnity between the guy involved in making this video, and the guy who made the video I'm about to bitch about... because the video I'm about the bitch about is about the video which is pretty decent, but not a big deal in the grand scheme of this story.<br />I hope you have noted it.<br />Have you?<br />You have?<br />Good.<br /><br />Also, a thought I should've thinked a bit earlier - I will be calling the guy who made the pretty-decent-but-not-a-big-player video "Person A" and the guy who made the video about the video "Person B".<br /><br />Now, person A makes his video, it is quite good, he's not great on camera, but you know what? Not a big deal as far as I can see - it's better to have an actual point than to be extremely articulate.<br />Here it begins to get interesting, person B decides he will make a video, in which he mocks person A for being slightly inarticulate, and not being led by overemotional nonsense over reason and relatively common sense.<br /><br />--The Aussie podcasters are talking about organic food, it's quite interesting, also funny. Interesting AND funny. AT THE SAME TIME! I think I'm going to like these guys.--<br /><br />Now, I don't care that person B is a narrow-minded git, that's fair enough, people are narrow minded and gittish, if you wanna mock people for inarticulate speeches and being slightly unprepared, yeah, well, we expect that. What gets me is that he does that thing that creationists do (yeah, he's a creationist... I like how close "creationism" is to "cretinism") and starts to witter on about how it's terribly, terribly arrogant to assume that we can claim things based on what we can observe, when in order to really understand things, we have to think outside the box.<br />I like thinking outside the box, it leads to interesting ideas, sometimes revolutionary ideas. It is, however, very rare that thinking outside the box lead to newer, deeper understandings of reality. This is especially true when the box we are asked to think outside of is the universe itself.<br /><br />--Now they are talking about Polar bears ripping people's faces off... how cute ^^--<br /><br />So yeah, this guy, person B, wants us to think outside the universe itself, you know, think outside of reality, OUTSIDE OF REALITY, in order to find the truth about "creation" UGH. AGH. RRRRGH!!<br />Personally, I don't care what he believes, he can believe whatever he wants - anyone is totally free to believe whatever they believe - but come on, telling people that in order to understand the universe, they have to ignore the entire universe? "Oh, but god is outside the universe!"<br />(Erm... how does that work? Physically outside? Is there an outside of the universe in any of t... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I missed my oldest friend's (<a href="http://fakeplastictrees.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/f/a/fakeplastictrees.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="fakeplastictrees" /></a>) birthday yesterday... shit, I couldn't afford the train ticket, I'm sorry man, I'm in Hull now thanks to the parents but it's only for today (and tomorrow but I bugger off again in the morning...(that's this morning now actually)) I would've come out to see you today but I can't actually afford the bus :\<br />
I hope it was a good night anyway, I hope to see you all again soon! (like, when I have some money to waste on large amounts of alcoholic thingies)<br />
<br />
I'm now officially a Yorkie... I don't know how you actually really achieve that status but y'know, I don't care, I am one, so there nyaah!<br />
I'm really starting to miss Hull things, like ... erm ... nothing springs to mind but I'm missing the people (some of them anyway) the only thing I don't like about York is that I have no interwebs there <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /> (also no girly to snuggle but I'm working on that (by "working on" I mean "looking at a girl across the office from me every few seconds and having a heartattack if her gaze comes anywhere near my side of the room (buggery)" but still...) I just need to work up the courage to talk to her (in my defence I'm usually so busy that I barely have time to get out of my chair for 20 seconds and she's at least 10 seconds walk away from me and... y'know... *whimpers*) I've seen her looking in my direction before now so I think I have some kind of chance... but that might be just my ego or her thinking "why the hell does that freak keep looking at me??)<br />
<br />
<<<br />
>><br />
<br />
ANYWAY! I have no idea what I was getting to... it was something important but got sidetracked by pretty eyes, damnit.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

awwwww<br />
love that film...... aaanyway<br />
<br />
Happy new year everyone, hope this one's better than the last, even if your last was the best you've ever had.<br />
(Yester/To)day was good, spent the first half hanging out with some people who I wish I knew better, feel like a bit of an ignorant twat for not taking the time to come out more often but what can I say? I'm an antisocial wanker. The second bit was kinda shit, spiders is crap on a saturday and it's shit on holidays, on saturday holidays it's hell AND closer didn't play so no sexy dancing for me <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /> only teh neckbreaking throw-your-hair-around-like-a-nutter dance, also good but I'll hate myself for it tomorrow. At least I got to spend more time with Marc & Dyl and all the other lovelies who were there. Last bit I spent with the guys from before after wandering back from spiders with Dyl, 'twas good but Dyl was ill <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" />. The taxi home was fun, got to the taxi office just in time to avoid a horde of chavs yelling about the how the fuckin' new fucking year's fucking shit 'n' fucked up.... I love chavs, really, they're so eloquent.<br />
Anyways, I think I'm gonna go and sleep now, my head's starting to throb, sleep sounds nice, maybe that dream I was having yesterday will carry on where I left it <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=D" title="=D (Big Grin)" /><br />
<br />
Good night peoples, happy new year.<br />
WOO 'n' stuff.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
I have to wonder about my parents sometimes, this morning my dad decided to let me know that it's icy outside... I mean... wow! I never would've guessed it'd be icy in the middle of winter after it's been snowing for days!<br />
Next he'll be coming up with crazy ideas about the sky being blue, I know I probably sound really stupid getting annoyed by it but if a car fell from the sky onto me he'd probably make sure I knew that there were cars falling from the sky, yup, thanks for the info, Dad.<br />
<br />
I'm trying to fill in an application form for a job right now, I'm useless with application forms, if I had to fill out a form for a transplant that I needed within a few days to stay alive I'd probably still take weeks over it, they're just so damned tedious.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ should be asleep..... really want sleep  but the ol' mind is everywhere and no  rest for those with minds that JUST  WONT SHUT UP.... very tempted to play  some overly violent game, relieve some  stress, tire myself a bit but there's  an old friend here and I don't wanna  take my attention from her... well....  she's something that looks like an old  friend but quite obviously not since  that's fairly impossible.... grargh!...  I hate insomnia and I hate sitting up  all night trying to figure out what to  do when you can be bothered to bring  msn back up..... maybe do some coding,  but to be honest I don't want anything  to do with my website right now..... to  be fair I don't really wanna be online,  I do a lot better getting some  introspective thoughty time without the  international community at my  fingertips.... but then do I really  want to be left alone with my mind? it  scares me... it conjures bad/annoying  things<br />
<br />
oh yeah, re girlfriend chances in last  entry, it happened, woo, then it  unhappened..... it was good but felt  weird, for both of us apparently... I  thought I was just being paranoid and  doubty of stuff but in fairness,  singleness is better for me, I always  manage to fuck relationships up  somehow.... or maybe I go for girls who  start to sabotage the relationship as  soon as it starts.... I dunno....  anyway, I'm single and happy about it  (and if you believe that, I have a cure  for... uhm... social awkwardness, which  I will sell to you for £60 *reassuring  grin*)..... yeah<br />
<br />
erm.... other news I seem to be getting  ok at drawing, wooo... and thats it,  good night... I hope yours is shorter  than mine. ]]></description>

I remember when I  was churning out about 20 poems a day  and writing into the night because my  mind wouldn't sleep and now its...  umm... all I have rolling through my  mind is tumbleweed and a few funky bass  riffs (but I cannae post those hear...  can I?)<br />
<br />
Anyway, there was purpose to this post,  I'm plotting to start doing some  drawing again, try to develop my skills  which are admittedly somewhere between  shit cartoonism and shit realistic  pictury thingies, maybe I need to work  on more abstract stuffles? Either way  my sketch book is gonna be doodled in  at least once a day, this is my new  umm... new pen's resolution. Yeah, so  every evening I'm gonna sit down and  randomly doodle some abstract shit or  maybe my chicken <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> (chicken is GOD!!!)  possibly the odd bunny....<br />
<br />
And now for the customary whine, I have  a new and fantasmic website... but I  somehow lack the ability to view or  ping it locally. I can ping it  externally though so it's either a  local problem or there's some bastardly  setting on the website which says  "don't let Dan see the website when he  wants to update stuff" I've also made a  funky php gallery for a good friend of  mine and emailed it to him as msn has  decided to be what I can only describe  as "a piece of utter crap" and doesn't  actually show 90% of my contacts  anymore (huzzah!) but since my website  is saying "I like totally don't exist,  man" I'm getting the feeling it hasn't  gone through yet... I don't know.  Bloody thing!!!<br />
<br />
Xion, if you haven't got it yet...  SORRY!! maybe I should write it on a  sheet of paper and post it to you  instead of relying on electronic shit.<br />
<br />
*beep*<br />
<br />
<br />
*EDIT*<br />
Just to prove how dumb and scatter  brained I am... I appear to have  forgotten to mention great news <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br />
I seem to have a girlfriend ^_^<br />
I'm not actually sure though.... there  was much kissing and cuddling and  mental fuzzifications.... but I haven't  asked her out and she hasn't asked  me.... but I'll see her tomorrow (WOO)  so I can always ask her then and be  nicely sure <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Who wants to slap Dan about and make  him get a grip on the reality of good  ideas versus bad ideas?<br />
Any takers?<br />
<br />
Please?....<br />
<br />
Seriously, I REALLY need to stop doing  things to screw myself over like  this... I haven't mentioned yet but I'm  single again, have been for a week or  so, maybe more (I never did have a good  awareness of the passage of time... in  the short term at least) anyway, I've  fairly well come to terms with living  the single life again, I hate it - no  kisses, no cuddles, no sex... I didn't  get any before but now I don't even  have the option, but yeah, I'm single  and I'm fairly fine with it, I miss our  relationship but I'm glad we're  finished, we're much better as friends  and I don't have to get so down that  she won't open up to me anymore so as  far as this is concerned things are....  ok. Of course there's the helpful talk  from my friends, the "plenty more fish"  style scenario and also the "you've  pulled great girls before, you can  again" line... which goes and reminds  me of Taz... anyone remember her?  *refers to journal entries in may*  first thoughts - yeah, she was  gorgeous, fun, amazing in so many  ways... I'll be fine (if I can attract  her I can't be bad) followed by lots of  other thoughts and the grinny  reminiscent stuff of cuddling with her  until almost 4 in the morning before  getting a taxi home and making me smile  and stuff... then I'm looking through  my hugely oversized list of bookmarked  sites and I find hers and wonder how  she's doing *click*...... FUCK! Another  thing I should have learnt is that my  emotions don't have a habit of dying  off..... so now I can't stop thinking  about her again....  fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckdammit!!!!! and  the need to cry is turning up again <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" />  although in good news there's a pretty  girl who's been following me around in  my head.... I don't know if she's a  figment of my imagination or a  premonition (I'll know either way in a  week or two I think) but if its the  latter I may find myself being happy  for a while again... I don't know.<br />
<br />
In other news - I'm still not really  very active on here, not posting anyway  I come online quite a lot and just look  at what people are putting up but I  don't really seem to have the same  drive to write anymore, it feels like  what I am writing is less of my soul  and more of fabrication but I think  this is probably just a temporary thing  as I have written a few things that I'm  considering putting online, it depends  on how good they are I guess.<br />
I'm gonna sign off now because its late  and I've been a bit of a zombie  recently and could do to be relatively  awake in the morning.<br />
<br />
Seeya around guys.<br />
Love you all <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/hug.gif" width="38" height="15" alt=":hug:" title="Hug" /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Scapegoat for hire:<br />
Willing to work flexible hours - from 1  hour a week to 24/7 scapegoating!<br />
Multiskilled - can be everything from  heartless bastard to member of  international conspiracy.<br />
Willing to work for any level of pay  from unfounded hatred to random abuse.<br />
<br />
Don't miss the chance to hire a top  class scapegoat!!<br />
<br />
<br />
...seriously though, its getting old  and boring and really beginning to piss  me off, I mean I *thought* I was doing  well for random acusations of some new  evil, I'd managed to go a fair number  of months without a single cry of  SATANIST!!! or DEEEEMMMOOOOOONN!!!!...  I'm fairly sure I don't look or act  like either of those anyway... but  hooray, such a drought could never last  long, I have a new trend to feel  special and despised for no good reason <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" />  I am now officially part of an  international conspiracy known as  "THEM" (its all capitals because its  obviously an acronym.... like "Tall  Humans Enraging Monkeys" or "Tepid  Humous Eats Malcom" or some such  evil)... but... really... do I have a  tattoo on my head that says "evil"?  I've never seen it myself, but everyone  else must do or why would so many  people be so desperate to make me out  to be some kind of evil psychopath??<br />
I wouldn't actually mind so much, but  its always the most unbelievably stupid  reason for deciding that I'm evil too,  like being able to do something that I  told someone I could do, or having had  a relationship with someone a year  earlier, or having fond thoughts for  someone that a friend doesn't like...  What the hell is so terrible about me  that everyone has to decide I'm pure  evil?<br />
<br />
I'm really not interested in playing  this game anymore, and I don't care if  they can't help it, because there is a  thing called rational thought, that  EVERYONE is capable of, and I'm sick of  being demonised... I know I probably  sound like I'm whining but I don't give  a shit, I will not be your scapegoat, I  will not be your demon, I will not be  your government agent and I will not  play your twisted little games anymore. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ok.... I'm actually properly back  now... planning to stay that way for  more than a day or so this time too,  I'm obviously gonna be a little slower  with the posting these days, since my  new jobs literally eats time, thats  right, my jobs eats time - I go to  work, I do work for the day, I get  home, if alone I'll sit on my computer  and work on my website, if I've got  company I'll sit in my room and do  stuff... but the time to sit at my  computer or hang out with friends is  too short, and the weekends are pretty  much nonexistent, today I went to york,  wandered around for a bit, then I got  home and it was 8, since then I've  eaten a bag of crisps, had a few drinks  and set up a few things on my website,  its now nearly 3 in the morning, I  really need to be up for around 9 to be  fully awake for 10 and in town for  11... what have I actually managed to  do? I've got my email working (oh the  joy).<br />
<br />
I know that if I go to bed, I'll just  lay around for a few hours and do very  little sleeping, but then my bed is  warm and soft and comfy, and I am cold,  and this chair is hard and  uncomfortable... really tired right now  too<br />
<br />
So, yeah.... recently I haven't managed  to get any real work done.... I've done  job work, but not my work... so my  project,  planned to be so wonderful  and great and completed in a few weeks  is still sat in my scrap book, it  little chicken-shaped sketchy mess....  this is something I intend to fix very  soon, I'm going to start putting aside  an hour each night to just sit down and  concentrate on art, maybe not anything  to do with the project, maybe just some  random landscape that I want to do,  maybe a poem, or a collection of lines  I've had in my head that day that I can  play around with and use in songs or  poems... or maybe concentrate on a  particular aspect of the project, like  work specifically on the helmet or the  glasses or the beak... or something. So  starting tomorrow... well... today, I'm  going to restart my art life... and  starting in about 20 minutes I'm going  to get some sleep...<br />
oh, yeah... I probably wont be on here  every day like I used to, probably only  one or two nights a week from now, but  enough to make updates of my position,  what I've done the since the last  update, what I need to do, and post the  current level of my pet Chicken...<br />
<br />
'Til then, good night.<br />
may whatever deity you choose to  believe in (or not) bless you ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ tonight I think I lost what little  faith I had left in humanity... three  times in the space of 4 hours, one guy  has managed to hurt most of my closest  friends, to the point where several of  us were willing to forget any  reluctance for violent action and beat  the shit out of him... I probably  wouldn't mind so much if it wasn't for  the "I'm interested only in love, I'd  never use women just for sex" speech,  closely preceeded and followed by his  disgusting and quite obviously  sex-driven and malicious actions...  more than one of us, myself included  were getting to the point where, if  we'd let ourselves go at him,  wouldn't've stopped until he was  nothing but a bloody streak on the  wall... all I can say is I hope he  realises how lucky he is that he didn't  turn up again.<br />
So I'm probably gonna be having a few  ridiculous trust issues for a while, so  sorry to anyone who'll be effected by  that, I want you to understand that I  love all of you, even if I might seem a  little distant, you'll still be some of  my dearest friends... I hope you can  understand why I'm currently a little  unwilling to invest my feelings in  people I'm not 100% certain of, and I  hope you'll be as willing to be there  for me if I need you, as I would for  you.<br />
Anyway, good night for now, all of you  sleep well tonight, whenever tonight is  for you.<br />
<br />
Love all of you.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ urgh... so much to do... I've finally  got somewhere to put by website, but I  need to actually update the thing...  since I wrote it several months ago,  when I was a much different person...  and by that I mean "uh god... was I  REALLY so DUMB??????"...<br />
I've got what appears to be becoming a  novel under construction in my  "non-poetry" notepad, which I should  really work on before I lose the thread &  have to fumble around for several  pages before getting back into it.<br />
I keep getting urges to write some more  poetry, but I'm completely uninspired  at the moment.... well, I'm not  uninspired, I'm very inspired... its  just badly directed... would probably  make great pictures *if I could draw*  but the poetry, it ain't working for.<br />
I've got a song waiting a tune, which  I'm actually making progress on, but  slowly.... tho Dylan's meant to be  being helpful on this... I guess we  should get together with the lyrics,  some scales and a few chords & work it  out... though I do have a pretty funky  riff worked out... I just don't think  its gonna fit this song - it sounds  like a major scale, and the song's very  much minor... dammit.<br />
It'd be pretty handy if I could find  some way of transporting myself several  hundred miles in a very short time,  without the aid of a catapult, or  fictional means <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /> this is gonna be hard  I think.<br />
I could do to stop letting myself get  distracted at work too... even when  I've got nothing to do, I could be  working on my nvq stuff.... I've gotta  get working properly on that...<br />
<br />
I've got too much I want and/or need to  do.... its pissing me off... and the  woman I love is hundreds of miles away  from me <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" />... I wanna be with her.... as  close to now as possible ]]></description>

So now the way I dance is cool??... I  dance like that coz on my feet I get  dizzy and fall over for godssake!!!!<br />
I don't mind being told I look cool by  some random person on the street...  thats ok, as long as they realise I'm  dressing how I do because I happen to  like the clothes - they're COMFORTABLE,  not to be cool<br />
<br />
I really wish people'd stop copying  me.... this is about the 12th thing  now... I AM NOT COOL!!!!! ok???<br />
I swear.... they're trying to drive me  insane... I'm gonna turn into a mad  fork murderer if this keeps up <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/fork.gif" width="37" height="18" alt=":fork:" title="Stabbed with a Fork!" /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Is Dan stupid?<br />
Yes.... Dan is stupid - he is a  paranoid idiot who manages to think  that everyone hates him, even though  there's actually quite a lot of proof  that says otherwise... and yes, I can  say this without fear of retribution  because I am Dan (for those of you who  thought I was insulting some guy for no  apparent reason)<br />
God I annoy myself... I feel like a  right eejit!!!!!<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Either I'm becoming completely  paranoid, or she's decided to hate  me... I hope I'm just being paranoid,  because I know I haven't done anything  to deserve to be hated... not to her  anyway, I'm sure I've done some things  to some people... but not to her...<br />
Oh god, I'm losing my mind over a girl  I barely know, I'm gonna drive myself  insane if I let her do this to me, I  just wish I knew what she was  thinking... and if she still likes me  or not... I just keep thinking about  who she knows, and who that person  knows... and that the person who he  knows hates me, all because I didn't  follow her little plan, because I  didn't hang around forever for her to  decide she was gonna use me ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ thats all she wants to be....  friends.... she's twisted my soul into  a corkscrew & made me love her... I  adore her.... and she LIKES me... and  worse, now I can't say the one thing I  truly want to say to her... I can't  tell her how she makes me feel whenever  I see her, I can't even say those words  that come nowhere near describing the  feeling because it'd feel too much like  trying to guilt-trip her... its so  horribly unfair... and the one person  I've got to turn to, to make me feel  better at the moment is the one person  I cannot turn to because she's the one  tearing me apart... I wish there was  someone else online talking to me.... I  could turn to them & let them comfort  me... or if someone actually lived  anywhere near me.<br />
<br />
My life is so twisted and pointless...  it seems like the only person who ever  managed to make me love her, is the  only one who isn't at all interested in  being anything more than friends... or  at least, the only one who I'd be  particularly bothered about her not  wanting me.<br />
<br />
Just friends... and I get the feeling  thats all she'll EVER want us to be.<br />
<br />
I want to die ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ok.... really.... this is bad.... VERY  bad, I can't even think straight... my  head's like.... something really messed  up.<br />
I need a cure.... she's tearing me  apart.... I need to tell her exactly  how I feel, let her know how she's  invaded my soul.... and pray to god  that I don't scare her off in the  process.... and pray that she doesn't  read this before I get the chance to  tell her myself.<br />
<br />
This last week has felt like decades...  each passing moment has driven me  deeper and deeper in love with her... I  don't think there's any turning back  from the way I feel for her now... all  I can hope is that she doesn't decide  she doesn't want to be with me.<br />
I don't know.<br />
<br />
At least its helping my music.... she's  a wonderful muse.<br />
<br />
Its funny.... this was supposed to be  something completely random to fill the  journal space in case she saw my  site..... it didn't work at all. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I can feel myself falling with every  breath and there's nothing to do for  it, each thought drives me farther and  farther... in each moment I find myself  losing sight of more of what used to  matter so much as they fade to black  and are hidden by the single entity  which fills my mind at every moment,  the one who blocks all thoughts from my  mind and fills my heart with fear and  adoration.<br />
<br />
The only thing I have trouble  understanding.... is how did she manage  to do this to me in a mere week?<br />
My heart is not so fickle that it could  be so easily swayed so quickly by any  normal feeling, nor is it so weak that  it can be forced to change its mind....  and yet, I've only known her a week & my  life is on its head & I'm thinking about  as straight as a circle.... which ain't  too straight (its a really wobbly  circle) she's stolen my heart without  any obvious effort... what's come over  me to make me so easily affected?<br />
<br />
Its madness.... I'm falling so madly in  love with her and I hardly know  her.....<br />
<br />
I'm losing my mind! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Aah! Spiders, quite possibly one of the  worst nightclubs in the world - small,  cramped and hot...but it does have some  redeeming features!<br />
Firstly, the alchohol is cheap and so  plentiful (although it does quite often  taste spiked, even when it's not)<br />
Secondly, the play very good music most  of the time (however many people of the  14 year-old variety go there a lot and  so much trendy-crap "punk-rock" is  played there too)<br />
And third yet most imporatant, it was  there that I met the most beautiful and  sweet woman I have ever known, who for  the past three days I have been falling  farther and farther in love (or more  probably lust) with, either way, she is  wonderful and I have been unable to get  her out of my mind since friday night  when I met her..... and to think that I  almost didn't bother going and the only  thing that actually made me go was to  see my friends, who I hadn't seen in  two weeks.<br />
I know its probably really stupid of me  to believe that its possible for me to  truly love her after only 3 days of  knowing her, but stranger things have  happened I'm sure, just never to me  before... Whenever I think of her  (which seems to be all the time) I feel  like my heart is going to burst out of  my chest, my breath is like frozen fire  and burning ice, its a feeling that has  beenmissing from my heart for quite  some time, she has filled a gaping hole  in my heart, I wish I was sure of  whether or not I truly love her.... or  I suppose, I wish I could make myself  realise that its practically impossible  for that to be true...<br />
Bah!! bloody emotions, I'm sure they  were designed purely to keep us  perpetually confused and pained... I  suppose what I should really be  wondering about is "does she really  like me?" I know she seems to... but  then Bridget seemed to be a really  sweet and mature girl... and Andrea  seemed like she was worth caring about,  rather than both of them being  immature, manipulative bitches... I  guess really I shouldn't be surprised  that I'm suspicious and paranoid  considering ever girl I've gotten  involved with has screwed me up pretty  heavily... although if I let myself get  too paranoid, I might actually convince  myself that she really doesn't care at  all and ruin any chance I have with  her, or just insult her by seeming to  not trust her and again ruin my  chances.<br />
Why do I have to read things so deeply?  this started out with the intention of  being a happy post... now I'm making  myself miserable thinking about how I  might end up ruining everything before  its even started... I know the last  year's given me quite a few reasons to  be paranoid, but I wish I could make  myself get over them and let her show  me if she really cares or not...  anyway, I've got time to sort my mind  out - we both have stuff to sort out in  our lives before persuing anything...  maybe I can settle my suspicions and  quiet my fears before anything happens  between us, which I hope will happen  eventually... I'd prefer sooner rather  than later, but there's no rush for  anything, and I'm certain she's worth  any wait... I just hope something does  happen between us... she told me she  wants something to happen between us & I  know I want something to happen... but  what if nothing does happen between us?  I'm sure I'd cope - I might be whiney,  but I'm not weak, but still... I'd  hardly be singing in the streets...<br />
<br />
I worry too much.<br />
<br />
I think too much......<br />
Its not bloody wonder I spend so much  time depressed.... I swear I'm gonna  drive myself crazy.... but at least now  I think... by taking the time to write  it all out... maybe I understand how I  feel better. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Yeah... I'm at work right now, but its  my lunch break so I can fuck about and  come on here..... DevArt rocks ya  know... really, & I finally gave myself  a password I can remember! And except  for my CD drive jumping out and  attacking me just now, everything  here's great, basically I'm getting  paid to sit at the computer and design  websites and/or other computery stuffs,  which is great coz I love that kinda  stuff with all the web designing and  the designing of the webs..... its  cool.<br />
Which reminds me... I have to get my  website uploaded, I've been workin on  it for the last month or so & its lookin  pretty good, only problem is that I  haven't uploaded it yet.... I'm gonna  have to buy a domain from my boss I  think, coz I don't wanna get one of  those freewebs, adinfested sites;  Noooooo!<br />
<br />
Anyway, as usual I ramble & rant, and ok  I know its hardly as usual as far as  you're concerned, but this is only the  first time I've posted in my journal,  just wait till I've been at it a while,  then you'll see what I'm like!<br />
<br />
I love everyone's art on here, its  great.... puts mine to shame, I've only  got one pic up so far, but its not  really all that good, it does what its  supposed to I guess & I was only  following where my arm wanted to go, so  I guess its not too bad....<br />
What I really love on here though, is  no-one seems to spend time posting just  to be insulting - thats something I  hate about most of the web, its all  flames and hate-mail (or hate-posts...  whatever) I don't get why people'd  wanna be like that, 'tis crazy I think<br />
<br />
Anyway, I'm gonna go, coz I've got food  to eat and people to chat to in......  20 minutes now.<br />
<br />
Bye<br />
<br />
