Some photos

Marrakech, Morocco Essaouira, Morocco
Some of my photos from Morocco are up; only a few, and I meant to do more, but somehow forgot! Just had a weekend all by myself, as M is off to Japan to see his cousin who's getting married. Actually, right now he's in Okinawa scuba diving, and I really wish I was with him. Instead of going to the office, which is dead dead dead, where I have nothing to do. I've actually had to start finding things to do because I'm not so good at procrastinating so much. I am very good at procrastinating at home though, of course. I've almost finished season 13 of ER, which gets more and more rubbish by the day (but I know I will be buying seasons 14 and 15, I can't help it!). Watched Weeds, which is amazing, and waiting on season 3 from a friend. And now have started really liking Waking the Dead, which really surprised me. That one I blame on RaeRae. We also went to see District 9 the other night. After getting over the fact that the style of filming made me incredibly nauseous, I really enjoyed it. It was so very interesting how we all had different theories about it when we came out at the end; we all saw different social critiques (apartheid, IDPs, migrant workers)... And I hate to confess I can almost see RaeRae's point about SciFi being a good medium of social commentary. Damn! I refuse to like Doctor Who though. On Saturday night I just stayed up until silly o'clock in the morning, outside the Wolfson bar, like always. And I'm pretty sure the ging was trying to sell people cutlery, and whisks... Sometimes I think I'm grown up, then I have weekends like the last couple I've had, and I realise I'm really not. And I'm really grateful for it. Being young and silly is cool. In fact, it's the new black, didn't you know?

I am trying to find a time to see District 9...and I've always agreed with the idea that SciFi is a good way of dealing with social issues...but that's a good thing though! Gx

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.
