tears full of beers

feeling pretty emotional/sad today. been at the pub with some of my uni mates, and it got me thinking - can't believe that pretty soon i'm gonna be done being a student :(

still got some time left, but wanted to do this now - while i've had a few peroni's and it's fresh on my mind. this is my testament to my student life

what you are all about to read has been written with eyes full of tears

tears full of beers.

just a girl, crying beers

a nostalgic girl, with hundreds of silly pics from student nights out/fun times/memories passed on my hard drive. feel like the 'student' spirit inside of me will 'never' die as long (as i don't crash my lappy). and if i 'ever' do, memories will remain

LOVED being a student
LOVED learning new words in class and telling my friends about them
LOVES being a stereotype, eating pasta and drinking 2 for 1 cider

LOVED being 'shitfaced' and staying up until light with people that i didn't even know
LOVED drinking unnecessary amounts of alcohol
LOVED dancing to the lowest forms of music available

LOVED meaningful holga pics + FB group taggings
LOVED laughing until we cried
LOVED singing '7 nation army' down the street like a bunch of hooligans. except we were peaceful

but most of all, i LOVED YOU (again, not gonna mention names). 

i'll remember lying awake at nite and thinking just of you
but things don't last forever.
somehow.

they never really do.

wow *need a breather*

gonna go and watch 'american pie'

1st post

hi everyone

not really sure how to start this first/new blog post. feel like y'all should know a lil bit more about me. like, i'm kinda tired of all that ironic/post-ironic bullshit. just wanna blog with my brains/heart/keyboard. i once read that when you start a blog, you have to introduce yourself, kinda like when you go to your first W.I. meeting (although i didn't have to, because i *am* the founder, just saying).

anyways, i'm 21 and half years old, but very mature for my age. i like to ride my bike and i was a vegan for 2 years, therefore my carbon footprint is basically minuscule.

i think i'm pretty special (pretty + special), and i'm also kinda good at things like knitting + baking + origami. i feel that activities like this allow me to express myself. i used to listen to a lot of "indie rock", but right now i listen to a lot of "r&b/soul/slow jams", as well as "oldies but goodies/guilty pleasures" - you know the ones! however, before next year i hope to be all about jazz music.

as i mentioned earlier (did i?), i set up the women's institute at goldsmiths uni. besides living, it's one of my greatest achievements. i guess you could say i'm KIND OF a feminist. i really believe that women's bodies are a battleground (don;t really know what that means, but it sounds cool + catchy). none the less, i hope to save the world with my original and controversial views. i say woman as sex toys no more. i say women degraded no more. (although at the same time i do kinda like tight jeans because they make my ass look good, is that compatible?)

this year i've had my first real GF. not gonna mention her name. but we watched movies, ate elaborate picnics and held hands in starbucks, and that was real sweet. and then i kissed her. but then i fell in love. love stinks. i also tried to touch her while she was sleeping, she thought it was kinda weird but then totally got it when i explained to her that it's a normal physiological phenomenon, cause she thought i was some kind of 'creeper'. anyways. we broke up after 19 days. hope we can still be friends. i'm probably gonna make a few more blog posts about me+her, gotta express myself/my feelings so watch this space. just hope she doesn't see and get upset :(

ANYWAYS, fuck her, i didn't start this blog to write about her. whatever ya'll think. i did it cause i think my outlook on the world is pretty unique. reading my blog is like watching the the discovery channel while reading jane eyre while eating your 5 daily fruits+vegetables. in other words: good 4 u. so thanks for stopping by readers, love u// love our connection xx

p.s. also wanna take this opportunity to give a shout out to my mum+my cat+god, because without them i'd not be who i am today
