N'kay.

Pfft. I don't know what to do right now. Either play some Samurai Warriors or curl up in a nice warm blanket on the couch.
Debating whether I should buy another hat. That bowler hat for 20 pounds at Paradise is tempting to buy...but
argh.
I must buy something other than hats.

Elephants

Giant buggers, aren't they? Very peaceful when you watch them on television despite the threat of predators and poachers that lie in wait for them. If you live in Brighton and are a person who likes to walk and wander in their spare time (especially around the Pavilion gardens) you may have seen the plastic elephant hedges. It was a splendid surprise to see when running to college one Friday morning. The positions they were put in were rather awkward, but splendid nonetheless.
I managed to take some pictures. They aren't the best quality and editing them on GIMP didn't help much.


Do you know what I'm having trouble taking a picture of? Squirrels. They've suddenly come face to face (not literally thank God) to a few recently on my way home and I never have my camera ready on me. When I do they run away from me.
Next time I see one, I'm just going to just throw a rock at them really hard, then take a picture of them.
I don't know why I want to take a picture of a squirrel, I just do.

College is draining me of all my money. I'm loosing money faster than I'm running out of art supplies. WHY DO THEY NOT WARN ME BEFORE I ENROLLED?!
WHY DO THEY TALK TO US AS IF EVERYTHING IS RIDICULOUSLY CHEAP?
I FEEL LIKE I'M BEING ROBBED.
RAH.
[cough]
If the landlord doesn't send me that blasted residency thing by the end of this week so I can get a bank account to get an EMA I might probably...cry... or something far more dramatic.

I was hoping to make this blog a sketch blog. I haven't got anything other than words and photos at the moment.

One morning...

...Whilst idly looking around my college library from the table I was sitting at I was looking across at the other students studying, researching , working, doing the things that I should have really been doing then. I had been to the library many times and I've almost seen and visually memorized every section of the library. I thought at the time I've been through the whole library, there's nothing I haven't seen but I saw something in that moment of procrastinating from my work that I never noticed before. The ceiling above me was a huge window showing a bright blue sky and in one corner of the window, the top of a building that was opposite the college. It was like I was looking at a painting. A live painting with a couple of flying seagulls flying through from time to time. Amazing . I found myself staring at it for what seemed to be 20 minutes and stopped after I caught my eye on a couple of students that were giving me the "you're coo coo" sign. Later that afternoon, realizing how I had missed such an amazing sight in the library, I found I had missed so much other things in town when I looked up (making sure I didn't bump into anything or anyone of course). It's amazing what you can see when you change your point of view. You see a wonderful new world you never knew there existed. On the other hand, you may see something you never wished you did.

I'm not sure why I wrote that or why I thought it was write-worthy but I thought it was something to write about.
I've started to repeat words a lot in one sentence/ paragraph. Nasty habit. Should stop.
