Well, as you might notice, I've added comments at greater length about the blogs that I read! I won't gush anymore here, when I've done so to your left already :) One thing though: with Charlotte's and Mike's blogs, I found it difficult to really think what to say. Because I know them both in real life, that's why I read their blogs. I would read them anyway, because they are both really good in their own way! On the other hand, it's easy to write about Duncan's blog, because although I know him for real, he's writing about something really specific.
Anyway, today I went to have lunch with Annette at uni. It's only a few days until the term is over, and I won't be able to go in and use the library anymore. This is a pretty small thing, maybe, but it's going to be weird. I'll start meeting up more with my uni friends elsewhere in London. Soon, the ones I keep in touch with won't be uni friends anymore, they'll just be friends! I hope I keep in contact with all of them, but I suppose I know that's not possible. It's kind of sad to think of us all drifting apart, doing different things with our lives. But good I suppose. I'm really excited for everyone, in a way, to see what they do with their lives next. Whereas I'm just worried and undecided about what I'll do next!! I know sort of now, though. I'm trying to get some work over the summer, doing pretty much anything. I'm applying for jobs in publishing, mainly, because it would be good experience, but I'm pretty much open to anything. Then in September/October I'm going to go to Mexico to study Spanish and travel around a little bit. Then, I don't know. I've been thinking about a lot of options. One thing I'm interested in is this volunteer project I've been reading about where you work on an English language newspaper in various places (Mongolia, India, Ghana... I like the idea of Mongolia best, I think, although it's a bit scary!). It would be good experience, I think, and interesting to live somewhere so different, and work somewhere so different, for a time. Anyway, it wouldn't be for that long: a few months at the most. Then come back, and maybe try and get a job in publishing. Or whatever I want to do with my life at that point!! I'm not sure I really want to live in England anymore, but maybe I will want to again, after I get back from travelling a little. I really wanted to travel a bit more than that. But, we'll see. I'm not committing myself to anything much, except Mexico! I;m thinking of buying the tickets now, so I can't back out :) ¶ 5:34 PM

Hmm, so this has been a pretty slow couple of days. I've spent silly amounts of time being antisocial, ignoring the beautiful weather, surfing and posting and emailing. Tomorrow I'm going to try and get in touch with that 'real world' thing again :) The really weird thing is that I've kind of stalled with the Punk Planet addiction (i.e. no arguments about politics at all in days and days!). BUT I'm still online an awful lot. I'm been stewing really. And smoking a great deal of weed. Well, tomorrow is going to be a much better day: I'm going to go out and have lunch with Annette, and she'll probably remind me some of the world outside of these four walls :) Then I'm going to call some people I should have called weeks ago. And do some fun stuff. Out of the house! Ha. Well, that is the plan. Soon, when Mike is feeling better, he's going to help me spruce up my CV so I can maybe have a better chance of employment :) ¶ 10:47 PM

Today all I've been doing is sitting at the computer, on the internet. The sun is actually shining for once outside, but that didn't stop me :)
I don't really have much to say, except that I found another blog worth checking out, Sickdragon. ¶ 7:00 PM
