Written #28: An observation
It is a hideous thing to watch as a man slowly becomes everything he hates. You cannot help but feel terrible for him, especially after he becomes conscious of the fact. The example I refer to has attempted to stop, but there is no denying what he wants. There is also nothing you can do to comfort or console. It simply happens. It’s like giving birth to the child of your worst enemy.

Written #27: Feminism and modern literature
I find nothing more hilarious than feminism. Perhaps that sounds wicked. Perhaps I’m a wicked person. But, it seems to me that feminists are out to prove that males are always depicted as stronger characters, that females are under represented in the media, that they are often sexualised etc.
Blah blah blah. Feminists do not look for evidence and draw conclusions. They decide that women are...

Written #26: Youth
Spent the last two days away from home. It was fun. Slept at Eli’s on Boxing Day, then at Warren’s, then spent the day in the city before returning last night.
It’s pretty mad. I love being away from home for extended periods of time like this. But when I woke up this morning, I realised that such a lifestyle can only last for so long. When we’ve all got jobs and...

I just had one. And the world has, while I was asleep, re-ordered itself.
Thank Christ. Things almost got interesting there. Couldn’t have that, could we?
Written #24: Most exciting day ever
I’m having so much fun at the moment. I’ve been doing interpretive dance all over the loungeroom, to the cricket commentary. It’s amazing. I AM ballet.
I’m having so much fun, even the computer, an inanemate object, is jealous. So much fun I can’t even spell anything. Wooooooo!
Watch my speed as I type away at the keyboard! You should see the tomatoes in my kitchen....
Written #23: Scared...?
I am terrified right now. Physiologically, I’m experiencing the symptoms of fear.
I love it. When my life has nothing going on, my mind takes other people’s concerns and turns them into dramas revolving around myself. It’s awfully self centred. And scary. On more than one level.
I’m staring a monster in the face. I dunno whether he exists or not.

You’re not helpless. Unless you honestly believe you are. And if you do, then be aware that I, who is rather clever, knows you aren’t, so shut up.
You know, if you need to talk, call.

Well, anytime till tomorrow morning. And then I’m seeing you on...

Written #22: December 25th
I’m really enjoying the way it’s in vogue to be dismissive about and dislike Christmas. Teen angst loves to make itself known when other people are enjoying themselves.
I’m having a ball.
Cannot wait for tomorrow.
Call me conformist. I don’t believe in such childish notions as ‘conformity’ anyway.
Life is for living, we all know.
Written #21: Blah blah busy life
Last night I hung out with Warren & Jack. It was fun and badass, and we discussed zombie apocalypse as per usual. Turns out we think a lot of our friends would be useless in such an event. Plus roaming Langwarrin in the wee hours. We watched the Shining and fuck it was good. Stanley Kubrick sure loves his cryptic imagery though.
I’m done with retail. Mostly because people suck and are...

Written #20: Librarian
As you may or may not know, due to my friendship with Ye Yint, I have taken up reading graphic novels this year. It’s a level of geekyness that I’d always aspired to, but had never really expected to reach. Congratulate me.
I was in the Frankston library yesterday, looking for some to read. I’ve been in a few times, trying to find them, but they are never on the shelves. This is...
One day you will find me, hopefully I will be in...

Written #19: Where The Wild Things Still Are
This time I got it.
Went to see it again last night with BF Katy. I realised this time that I needed to approach the film from a child’s perspective. Man, did it change things.
I got everything. I don’t want to say what my interpretation of stuff was, but if you imagine you’re a little kid, it all makes so much more sense. Probably because some of it makes no sense at all. But...

Yeah, an ENTER post. We were all expecting it.
This morning, as I’m sure many of you are aware, the VCE class of 2009 got it’s ENTER results. Personally the leadup to this date has been a frightfully stressful experience. I slept about an hour last night. Probably didn’t help that we didn’t go to bed until around 4. Still…

The Future
warren-is-all-in-your-head:
The more i think about it the more I’m not looking forward to it.
The life cycle of a modern human is depressing.
My buddy Jack once said that he wanted to live on the street for a year. For some reason this sounded really exiting. Would make me apprecaite what i have more. I think I need a reality check. I’m still too naive.

I think I remember seeing this at yours one time, but in slide show form, on your laptop. If memory serves, we disagreed on it’s impressivness and glared at one another.
And at this stage, I’m getting over having all these little memories of you and Victoria. I’m seriously considering inviting myself over for tea & crumpets. Or english muffins.

Written #15: Where The Wild Things Are
I knew going into this film that it was going to resound fairly strongly with me. I wasn’t mistaken. Considering the point of my life that I’m currently at, it was always going to be something that I appreciated.
Immediately after the film I was conflicted, because I had to figure out what exactly I thought the film was trying to say. It’s a simple message, which is probably why...

I’ll probably never see most of you ever again, but I want you to know that this year has been kickass with you guys. We had some good times…And we had some more good times. We spent a week and grew as a family, wishing this shit would never end. We wished that this life was eternal. But now, sitting here typing this, I realize that reality is something we cannot avoid. We’ll plan to...
Written #14: Tonight
Tonight I had my staff party. I’ve actually never been to one, despite over two years of employment at the same establishment. It was fun. We bowled (or tried to) and had awards and karaoke, during the course of which I lost my voice. I’m not going to lie to you, I get fairly enthusiastic. I learned a few things tonight. Firstly, I’m probably the only person my age who knows all...

Written #13: Whatever pops into my head
Anyone who’s been around me recently will know that I’m freaking out about my ENTER score. I’ve used the ENTER calculator about twenty times in the last two weeks, in spite of the fact that I’ve no idea whatsoever how accurate it is. Doubtless it’s giving me a far better result than what I’ll end up with.
It’s been raining a bit recently. Woooo I love the...

Last night is one of the many reasons why i love not having plans. I hate planning a night. I seem to have a lot more fun just meeting up with friends and doing what ever we feel like.
Last night I met up with friends at Southland and saw a movie, this was the only part of the night that was planned. We went back to Jack’s place. Well me, Tom, Guillermo and Jack....

Written #11: Beatlemania
When I was 15 I had my own, personal Beatlemania. It was pretty hysterical. If I was around in the 60’s, I definately would have been one of those screaming, fanatical, fainting girls clawing at each other in a desperate attempt to touch the gods.
I’m listening to Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band at the moment, a record that I traditionally dislike strongly, and all of a...
