pickgirl
listening to | powderfinger \ the
blue ep
feeling | tired, happy i'm not at uni and at the
same time worried about what work i may me
missing
today
is the national day of action at universities
across australia. i'm not exactly sure if my
lecture was cancelled or not, but i figured i may
as well not go and give myself a little extra
time to do the assignment i had due today, but
had not started. when they ask why i did not hand
it in on time i will explain that i assumed my
lecture was cancelled and thus did not go to uni.
yay.
i've decided to watch monty python's flying
circus in breaks at uni. two friends and i went
over to the library (yes, usually by 4th year an
engineer has learnt where the library is) and
watched 2 episodes. god i love stupid humour.
speaking of uni, i won bar trivia the other day.
free mark of cain ticket! woohoo! i'm ashamed to
say that my winning point was knowing in what
year murphy brown was first aired. for those
interested, it was 1988. ;)
i'm
currently listening to a burnt copy of
powderfinger's first ep. my buddy JB - who is a
champ - sent it to me. i'm not one of the
fortunate people to own the original. i'm also
not stupid enough to pay over $500 for it on ebay. anyways, it is tops. love it. i
miss old powdy. i want them to rock out again.
enough with this pissy shit already. i want
guitar solos!
i
saw iOTA last night. my god! i have never seen so
many ferals in my life! it was really funny
though, because here they were thinking they were
all being 'different,' but the whole lot of them
looked the same. they all knew each other too. it
was frightening. all these girls who had way too
many layers of clothing on and looked homeless.
why would a person deliberately try to look like
they don't wash and have no home?
the support act, chi, were very funky. a little
bit d.i.g. a little bit george. the female singer
was gorgeous and had really cool eye makeup.
hehe. the guitarist had cool floppy hair. :D
iOTA's name for me for the past 3-4 years has
been 'pickgirl' for the necklace of guitar picks
i used to wear around my neck. however, last
night when i bumped into him before the gig he
called me pickwoman. i inquired why i
was now known as pickwoman. he stated that i was
all grown up now and that he thought it was
appropriate to call me 'woman' instead of 'girl.'
he later introduced me to the audience and
explained the story of the evolution of pickgirl.
*embarassing*
