we want your flat and your soul

so far so bad

2008-10-01T22:49:00.002+11:30

jakub and i are moving in to a flat together out of our old flat. differing personalities and demands as to the flat itself has brought upon the decision to leave it for the greener pastures of, so far, the city streets and card board boxes. at least i feel safe in the fact we are not the only ones soon to be homeless, rory is, ross is, as with the rest of their band; all of the very nice and dapper men i see on the streets, in only slightly holey and smelly clothes are homeless and they seem to be doing fine for themselves.
we have a meeting to go look at an unfurnished flat on saturday at 12. but all is well so far, sleeping on the ground will not detour us, for as long as its our ground we are happy as happy can be.

we have started a blog together to hopefully help us collect ourselves and understand everything, meaning of like, mystery of the universe...blah blah blah

2008-08-31T12:39:00.002+11:30

before this summer i thought i knew enough to get by:

after this summer all i know is half of what i think i know is a misunderstanding, but who's really keeping count anyway?
i.q. is nothing if you don't use it, right?

joe is a no.
new flatmates under testing
deposit needed by tuesday
and the info of weither or not i get my loans on wed.
so i need to pay the deposit for my flat
before i even know if i can stay in glasgow
this is a serious fuck
i called gsa to beg them to tell me
but no they wont i need to know i cant afford
to blow 320 pounds on an unknown

Crap

2008-08-22T01:47:00.002+11:30

okay so joe doesnt know if he wants or can move in
which means the other four of us are screwed! We
will have to either find someone else by tuesday
who can pay or pay his amount ourselves, which i
can not do! so what do we do, i am gonna go through
so much crap to even get the deposit of 640 dollars
i cant help make up the rest that he would of paid
my answer to this must be quick prostitution

cut off both of my dogs hair
caught a mouse with a trach can
wanna get a rabbit or kitten in glasgow
might be living with a new second year photographer boy from germany
or a first year sea girl from scotland
i havent decided and it kinds depends on what pans out either would be fine but if i could choose i might have to pick the boy beacuse as everyone knows, i love national geographics, and as i picked out up today it was one about berlin(where he lives) and under the headline for it was and article about virginia and colonist
i do believe in signs
but my mom pointed out it could be a sign me coming to scotland and living with a scot
but she is on my course and it might be bad to live with someone on your course youll see a lot beacuse look how it ended last time-we are speaking but not good friends like we were
