[ mood | sleepy ]

hello again! i meant to update earlier but i've been a bit rubbish. sorry.

well, pete and myself went off to sunny wales (aha) to stay with pete's parents for a few weeks. lovely lovely family, and oh the food. and the rain. but it was fun, and we shared the little guest room - guess who slept on the floor..

and [info]back_by_sunday, she interrogated pete! thankyou ashley very very much, now i know he isn't repelled. which is nice.. so ta, yet again.

and on many people's advice we are hosting a party this friday. should be hell. i joke, however badly, and it should be fun really.

i hope you're all great! i've been commenting but not enough. i've been slacking, sorry.

[ music | holiday - franz ferdinand (in the spirit of things) ]

amazingly rushed entry just to say i'm going to be away for about 2 weeks - holiday! i'm typing this amidst a frantic chaotic packing session with pete and he's having a go because i've left him to sort out the CDs (ha) on his own... but just so you guys know, that's why i won't be commenting/updating until about the 17th. i hope you're all having a good summer!

[ music | in the city - razorlight ]

i bought the razorlight album at last today! it was one of those things you really want but constantly forget. or does that just happen to me? most likely. i have a memory worse than a decorative rug.

christian has recently been a perfectly ordinary human being! amazing!

school's finished. for a while. but still, it's the principle of having no work for a good 5 weeks straight that really matters, isn't it?

i got me a saturday job, and it's not bad.

on a slight downer.. when you have the hots for your best friend and they don't have a clue, what do you do?

but i'm going to overlook that, because you should never meet trouble halfway and i don't intend to.

how's everyone? i know i always ask that, but i'm always wanting to know what's happened since the last update... humour the poor boy, please!

i've been away for ages.... so i'm desperately behind on commenting. i hope no one deleted me from their friends list in my absence.

i don't know if you lot really know about what happened in london, but it was scary. thankfully all the people i know are okay.. they're all really lucky, so am i, i wasn't that close. and it really hits you, when things are a little closer to home.

i hope you're all well. what's been happening with you guys?

[ music | music when the lights go out - the libertines ]

i'm single again.. what a long relationship that was! he took it really well, he said he wasn't sure about it either. i was so relieved.

i'm sorry about not commenting! it's just that what with breaking up with elyes, revising, sitting exams and having a mighty go at christian i've been a bit busy...

i pretty much told christian that he has to stop playing with people's emotions and to shut up so that people can get a word in edgeways once in a while. it was very dramatic, haha. i couldn't help myself, i was so sick of him spreading rumours and trying to get off with anything with 2 legs that i had to tell him. next mission: to find out his sexual leanings - changing from gay to straight overnight and then back again whilst denying bisexuality is quite an achievement, even for him!

i'm not going to be commenting as much as i would like to because i still have revising and exams to do, but i'm going to try harder.

[ music | so here we are - bloc party ]

i haven't been online for quite a while because some stuff's been going on..

well, i'm now officially going out with elyes - but i think i've made a mistake, i don't think i like him in that way anymore.. and i don't know what to do... i'm so fucking stupid! because he's a nice guy so i don't want to be horrible to him, but i don't think we should stay together. i don't know if i just said yes because he's one of the few gay guys i know, and although i'm bi i tend to swing a bit more to the male way. or however you'd like to put it.

argh.

i suppose at least we're not married, haha.

how are you all? i'll comment later once i've done this damn revision.

[ mood | angry ]

i really would reply to previous comments and actually do some other commenting but i have a somewhat urgent posting matter...

i have a friend called tom, and a friend called emily. the friend called emily has (well, had) a boyfriend. but tom and emily ended up making out for ages the other day - and now the boyfriend has dumped emily. i asked tom if he and emily were going out and he said not officially, but they are still keeping up with the whole making out thing. even though i told him it would be a horrible thing to do.

1. i don't know how to act towards them! i don't know the boyfriend (well, ex-boyfriend, i guess) but i feel so sorry for him. i feel like i should hate tom and emily but they're meant to be my mates.
2. what? not officially going out, but still making out? what?

i love you all, i just needed a vent... aaargh...

i missed my bus.

look what [info]deathbeat made me! my new icon.. well she didn't say it was for my icon usage. but MUAHA.

i've started to get very depressed about my singleness and paranoid about people preferring others to me. *sobs* and getting behind in work and everything. arrrgh.

i had flu as well. uuugh..

but it could be worse. count your blessings and all that..

the caesars are on! whoo..

do you ever get that feeling that when someone compliments you, they don't mean it?

hellooo everyone...

off commenting in a minute. this is just an 'i'm not dead' announcement, i suppose.

how are you all? i need a random question... err.. how about several?

what's your favourite theme tune?
what's your view on the jackson trial?
do you prefer green or blue?
orange or black?
toast or bread?
who do you like (in an oooOOooh, like sort of way)?

i'm a bit bored... orrr boring.. depends on your view, i suppose. aha.

met pete's cousin of 4 years old yesterday, called elliot. adorable little kid, curly blond hair and green eyes. he looked nothing like pete but i cousins don't usually resemble each other, do they?

i got an a* on my history! yay... ahh, simple things please simple minds. so my history teacher must be a simple man. hardehar.

i went to a gig. it was rubbish. but i met some new people (a guy called elyes particularly springs to mind, haha), so it wasn't a total loss.

also, i tried to pretty up my lj. as in, make it less scabby.

hope you're all well!

i'm sorry everyone that i haven't been commenting and posting or even being generally online at all but to put it in terms typical of lj, i've been having a seriously bad time of it. which is overdramatic, but never mind.

christian has been telling people that ross and i have been secretly together for a while. which would be hilarious if it wasn't so annoying - i was worried he'd convinced people but thankfully not most. i guess it was just a childish prank, but.. it was still painfully annoying.

then i got in contact with an old friend but it turns out she's a homophobe anyway.

after this, ed spilt coffee over my history coursework notes and christian told me that he'd always hated me. so really, it was grand. i wouldn't have taken what christian said to heart if i was in a normal mood - he says that stuff to everyone - but it was all a bit much.

sorry, but i needed a vent. i'll comment on everyone's lovely ljs tomorrow, hope you're all well!

it's [info]back_by_sunday's birthday in 2 days, and ed's next month. and my cousin's is in.. about 2 weeks, i think. oh, it's all go.

also, vegetarian chicken nuggets are genius, and polos are works of art in themselves.

my mood isn't actually devious, i just wanted to put it.

i don't really know why i posted. never mind!

we're having a heatwave. completely random. but it's nice, all warm and sunny, and it smells like cut grass now. reminds me of when i was little. pete likes it too, you can tell, he spent ages this morning sitting under the tree outside the front. i sat with him for a while. i know i should've been doing work but it seemed like a waste of time then, does now. i think he wants to go play tennis later, at the courts about 10 minutes away. i think i might go, why not..

oh, the romance! haha. i wish.

how're the rest of you? is it sunny where you are?

ugh. i'm not well. it's no fun, especially when you have 2 history essays to do, and a certain someone keeps turning up unannounced for no reason and doesn't even spare a 'get well soon' type wish... but then wants constant advice about people without names or ties to anything at all.

my birthday's in 7 months. it felt like i didn't have a birthday last year, i can't remember any of it. which can't be a good thing.

i would like to know everyone's favourite...

colour:
movie:
tv show:
food:
place to be:
animal, and why:
phrase:

because i'm nosey.

yes i know this entry was random. but nothing's been happening and i felt something needed to be put, even if it was as inane as that.

i would also like an analysis of the word 'inane'. if possible.

[ music | take my temperature - kaiser chiefs ]

and so we have... the dreaded talk. ohh, the fear.

well, he was apologising a lot but for what never really became clear. there was a distinct lack of volume which was somewhat annoying and he was very distracted, but then he said he was having problems with his girlfriend which seemd a pretty good excuse to me, so i comforted appropriately although he's never seemed that attached, let's be honest. then he said thanks, and whatever, and goes!

vaguely odd but never mind, because the exit made me laugh a confused laugh later on.

it snowed! blizzards. aha. i made a snowman with pete. it was fun, but i couldn't feel my fingers. ouch.

how are you all? interesting happenings/fascinating facts/hot people pictures fully welcomed.

i myself am liking ricky wilson. muaha. lookatim! )

mostly pointless entry but i felt it was necessary.

well, i got aim with a crappy name (mikethepebble) because there were no decent ones left... but at least i have some form of communication now, other than email.

in other news, i saw christian round at the newsagents, and the conversation went:

christian: hi
mike: *spazz* aghhhhello
christian: i think we need to talk
mike: oh? do you? well, it's... err... i have no problems, something up?
christian: tomorrow?
mike: mmm yeah, well no. well.. i think i'm busy, yeah, maybe another time, i mean you're around all the time... haha... and i think it's practise on saturday so maybe then... nothing to talk about anyway, hahahaHAHA *runs*

obviously not verbatim but basically the same, and it was pretty traumatising. and i dealt with it that badly. i wanted to buy the nme but was too scared and left without it... damn christian and his frightening 'talks', who knows what he wants to talk about? he may be wily bastard pervert extraordinaire but i hope he's okay.

[ music | evil - interpol ]

i think i'm getting too.. kind of laid back, i dunno. too much of a walkover. this is how i ended up sleeping on the sofa yesterday so that ross could get a decent night's sleep! well, apparently he hadn't slept at all... it was weird, i woke up and christian was on the other sofa. evidently pete let him in to sleep, which is kind of odd in itself. i'm not making much sense but still.

oh god, apparently ross was at it with his girlfriend round her house and he accidentally said mike.. seriously bad slip of the tongue! she wasn't too pleased of course, poor ross. i've never had the problem myself which is quite strange as i'm so disastrous... i'm glad they're still together though - she's amazingly annoying whichever way you look at it but he's a great bloke, really he deserves better.

pointless entry. maybe i should make my journal more presentable, if i can be bothered...

[ music | i predict a riot - kaiser chiefs ]

well, after not seeing ross for a fair while he arrives at out doorstep today to 'crash'. he doesn't seem to be shifting at all. i don't mind to be honest, he's a good friend, and i'd rather him than christian. it was just a bit strange because he doesn't seem the type. he's going to be having a sleeping bag in my room. the action! haha...

speaking of christian, no-one's sure on his sexual standing anymore. or partner standing for that matter! i mean, ed still thought it was me and him. no no no. i wasn't fully keen in the first place, his mood swings throw you totally out of synch... but i wasn't even sure it was a 'thing'. anyway. so we've seen him with a lot of lady friends but we know he's had the odd guy relationship, and he's always insisted he's gay. pete says it's relief but he must have one hell of a sex drive because i've heard him... relieve by his own hand as well a LOT, and i can tell you it's a very strange experience. i won't share what he says, but i found it somewhat disturbing! what was i talking about, anyway? ah well. and apparently i don't talk enough about girls to be bi. honestly! i have to completely perv over people to prove they're attractive to me. i don't know. and then this complete twat that ed knows, alex or adam or something, says that i can't be gay because i'm not feminine. what? that is just... stupid... i mean, yes i'm not gay but you don't have to be totally camp. it's not compulsory. gah.

pointless entry. oh well. i'm going to have some hot chocolate with ross, because i'm just that exciting. if anyone has anything interesting to add in a comment then please do!
