editing is hell.
Tuesday, April 22, 2008

I'm only at chapter three (of five, plus the conclusion and methodology appendix which most definitely need editing) and I already want to shoot myself. And I now only have 500 words of leeway for the main body of my thesis. I knew I could count on myself on writing so much rubbish I'd reach the word limit.
ARGH.
At least it looks positively spring-like outside. But I'm sure it won't last long.
List of things I will do starting on Friday, when this... This thing is handed in:
- return all of the 25 books currently sitting on my shelf;
- get very, very drunk (it will go like this: few beers at lunchtime, Pimm's in the afternoon, then more beer for dinner, then spirits and shots, and then I shall die);
- paint my toenails pretty colours;
- buy shoes;
- buy ER season 9 and watch it all in one go;
- also spend a couple of days catching up with all the TV series which are finally starting again (House, Grey's Anatomy, etc.);
- do a lot of killer sudoku;
- start going to the gym again and lose those other 10kgs which are now bugging me a lot;
- spend hours on etsy looking for pretty jewellery;
- wake up at 11am every day for a week and not feel guilty;
- throw away the key to my carrel;
- make cakes;
- sit on the grass enjoying the sun and smoking like a chimney;
- have long coffees with my friends every single afternoon...
I'm sure there's more. I'll keep updating as I think of more things. Ah ah. I'm the goddess of procrastination.

Ah. You are REALLY creative. you have a long list of things you want to do before dying. I honestly thought dying was the firstn thing coming straight after submission. At least a couple I want to be part of :) BTW. this morning i stopped ( as i do every morning) at the local coop to invest in red-bull for the day. I was queing at the till when my eyes caught the bottles of wine lining up the shelf. I felt like crying. This sudden, deep, intense outburst of sadness coming up my throat. And mind you, I am not yet an addict!!!

Version

Because a picture is worth a thousand words, and I cannot describe my life better than a picture can.
And because my heaven is here, I'll wrap the world around it and live in a cocoon. Quoting from a favourite song, 'Letting the cables sleep' by Bush, in its incarnation as a remix. And I do wish the friend who introduced me to the song was here to see the way things turned out.
The photos used on this site were all taken by me and can be found on my Flickr account.
