Time to update!
February 6, 2008I guess it’s about time that I write in this thing, huh? One day I’ll get better at it. Today is going to be about random points – because I am far too all over the place to write a coherent post.
Things I’m currently obsessed with:
- Architecture In Helsinki. But really, I am never not obsessed about this band. It took me a little while but I finally love Places Like This as much as In Case We Die. I could never, ever pick a favourite AIH song. They all make me so happy I could explode.
- Season two of Extras. I die every time I watch it, it’s so goddamned awkward that I sometimes actually can’t watch. Similarly, I am in LOVE with Flight Of The Conchords, I think everyone should see this show. ‘At least I didn’t shoot a monkey’ is quite possibly the best line, ever, in any tv show or movie.
- The Sarah Silverman ‘I’m Fucking Matt Damon’ video clip. I don’t find Sarah Silverman funny at all, but this video kills me, especially the little gangsta rap dance. Matt Damon is probably my favourite actor of all time, I love how he’s so willing to pisstake himself.
- Coffees, the early mornings for work are killing me. I can’t wait to go back to 9am starts for uni, sleeping until 7:30 is perfect. How will I ever cope with real life?
Things I am currently worrying about:
- Being the only single person, apart from the little kids, at my friends’ wedding in March. The bride and groom just invited my best friend’s new boyfriend to the wedding (she’s a bridesmaid with me) and so now she is going to have someone to exlaim over how lovely she looks and to hang out with and I’m going to be surrounded by couples on a day celebrating love reminding me how I don’t have it. AWESOME. Also, I can’t tell my best friend I’m kind of pissed she invited him, because it’s selfish of me. It’s just that it sort of felt like this wedding was going to be the last big thing that we got to do, just the two of us, because I am pretty sure that he might be ‘the one’ and while I am incredibly stoked and happy for her, and really like him, I’m sad that now it won’t be just the two of us at the wedding being stupid and feeding each othe cake and wine. Also I am jealous. Not because I want him, but because I want to be stupidly in love with some boy that I think is incredible. Well, some man. Day by day I get more and more conscious that I’m by myself and every single one of my friends is taken. I’m not even kidding. Like, actually not exaggerating at all. I know three single people and that’s a workmate and my friend’s two brothers that hang out with us sometime (and no, they are not options).
Sob story over, I swear!
So is this post, actually. I’m out of things to write. Go buy Jack Johnson’s new CD, it’s brilliant.
Miranda, I would totally go with you! (Because you are awesome and confirmed this fact by proclaiming Jack Johnson’s brilliance).
I anticipate being the only single person at Bestie’s wedding, I am not bothered though and I thought I would be. I don’t even know what has changed, I am just ok with it now. I don’t know many other single people, the only single person I know (in RL, and who is in my immediate social circle) is Wifey.
I know how you feel though, I used to be very familiar with it and I know that is sucks to feel that way, sorry I can’t do anything more useful. Being single at a wedding might have it’s benefits, all the boys may be feeling all loved up and ready to meet someone?
Awww, thanks Jen. That was what I needed to hear! Especially because I’m home alone on a Saturday night. Have you got the Some Live Songs EP? By Jack and Donovan Frankenreiter and G. Love?
No, you know I am shit at buying CDs, we’ve established this, but the EP sounds fantastic!
You like Donovan Frankenreiter too?! Let’s just go get married now….but before that, one final question, where do you stand on the topic of haloumi?
Do you know. This is terrible, and I am scared to admit this to you… but I have never tried haloumi cheese. In general I am massive fan of cheese, so it is safe to say I would like it. I wish you had some sort of messenger so I could send you songs!!!!
I am far too old and boring to have a messenger of any sort
Facebook it is for me. Are you on Facebook?! If you, you need to be on my list immediately.
I must also demand you pick up some haloumi next time you are at the shops/deli. It will change your life.
I don’t have facebook, I did, but lost interest in it. Or gmail? Although I have never figured it out, my friend just made me get it one day in the computer labs at uni! I’ll try haloumi next time I get paid, promise.
Try Facebook, I signed up and hated it and never go around to deleting my account and then I tried it again and loved it. EVERYONE and their friend is on it these days and it’s much more fun.
Well, if Jen says so it can’t be bad
Let me try! I have nothing better to do.
I guess the easiest way to find me would be to go on the left hand side type “internetz” in the search box and it will find all the people who mention internetz on their profile. When I did it, I came up first. I am “Jen Nifer” and there is a pic of me in a white singlet (it’s meant to look sketched, so it’s sort of grainy) Let me know how you go
You could search for “Jen Nifer, but there are thousands of people who use that name. The “internetz” way is easier
I can’t find you!! I’m a loser. I shall persist.
Ladies, you have nothing to worry about at the wedding. I was bridesmaid a year ago for my best friend and both the other bridesmaids had their partners there. You have so much fun, you talk to so many people and you’re so busy that if I had had a partner there i’d probably have been too busy to talk to him anyway! It’s way more fun being single, I promise!
