summary [TuesdayJun920091231] - I got bored and cut 5" off my hair with paper scissors. My bangs are usually 97% that straight. - So many things I want, so little money. - I did get a coffee machine though ... but after I finished with my exams. Good timing, huh? - Ignorance of results is bliss. - I need to sort my summer, and life in general, out. I still don't know what to do with it, and honestly - how am I supposed to know what I want to do with the rest of my life at 21? I do expect to live another 40 years, minimum - that's hell of a long time to plan so soon. - I did, however, spend 6 hours cleaning my flat and with a few push and shove exceptions, at least one aspect of my life is organised. - Oh, and these are 7 songs I've been listening to lately. - FML and Overheard Everywhere are more amusing than me. *#&!

tumblr [SundayApr1220090014] I got a tumblr. I'm going to use it for blurby-type posts, links, and review/product-discussion type posts, since I tend to have more of those in mind nowadays. I'm keeping this journal and will update it, and will post tumblr post summaries here once in awhile, but follow me on that if you have one and want to. I dislike the fact that if you use their auto-options html control becomes a lot harder, but I like the clean look very much. $2 : *#&!

if music be the food of love [FridayApr1020092300] See what I did there? This post is about music and food, two things which I love, so I found a clever phrase to sum it all up - as opposed to calling this, say, music & food. Shhh. I've finally figured out why I used to feel so sleepy after lunch - it's because I always had pasta or a sandwich. So from now, I am going to cut down the amount of pasta and white bread I eat. I love a nice egg pasta and a great sandwich, but I've realised that eating them makes me feel so unbelievably sluggish and lazy after, even with a regular gym habit. Not tired per se, but unproductive and sort of ... clogged up and weighed down. Rice seems to be okay, but the other two do me in. Especially if there's anything creamy involved. I made a salmon pasta with creme fraiche for dinner and haven't been able to focus or concentrate since, all I want is some nice juicy fruit and a clear vegetable soup to the flush the heavy feeling out of me. Either that or make myself a warm hot chocolate, abandon the studying, call it a night, and haul myself to my favourite French cafe with my work tomorrow for a light lunch (involving no pasta or overly white bread or cream-based sauce or soup). I posted this on my Facebook too, but for those of you who don't have me on it - I'm once again itching for some new music. So please recommend anything you've been really into recently. I listen to practically everything - maybe except Chinese opera music and pop music from 2000 till now, but everything else is game. Almost all genres have a time and place! As for me, it being study season and all, I've been listening to a lot of Brightblack Morning Light's eponymous album. Lush. Also on heavy rotation are The Velvet Underground & Nico, as well as Beach House. Two other songs I've had on repeat are Beast of Burden and Ooh La La - oldies but goodies, and they were perfect for the lazy sunny weather ... until it turned dreary yesterday (p.s. latest favourite dreary weather song). Fire away. P.S. I want a tumblr. The layout options are great and perfect for the type of posting I like to do. Hmm. $2 : *#&!
