I saw the giant koala sign in the sky

What's new, little brother?

I've just finished my first class at school and there are no cute girls, which means I'm either going to get great grades or I'm not going to show up at all. Ugh, it's so banal and rudimentary - I should be teaching the class... I wish you were there because we'd have SO much fun. Can you imagine the mischief we would get up to? I mean, the things we do in public alone... I want to torment the other kids in class with nobody but you.

By the way, while I was in class, I saw a double-decker tour bus out the window and immediately thought about how most of the times we've hung out have been punctuated with some lifelong memory - good and bad, but mostly good (the bad often involving VJJ).

Sorry for being so absent. I find it depressing to be on Facebook and gTalk and so on and so forth, but NOT BE THERE. So I throw myself into work and swimming and insulting people in general. One thing I am looking forward to is seeing of Montreal next week. Of course I have to play hooky but how could I give up the chance to disconnect the dots? Again, this is an outing that is blasphemous without you, but I have to blame it on the whole oceans apart thing. In my defence though, you WERE invited.

Okay, so to add to your brilliant idea of an allstar-blog, I would really like a regular Top 5 list of all the things that MXS is currently into. Especially since he was the one that introduced me to Los Campesinos and of Montreal and Twilight (as if) and and and...

Here are mine for this issue:

1. The little blonde girl on my bus (who may be homo, if her rainbow-coloured umbrella is anything to go by; but who is probably hetero, if her husband is anything to go by...)
2. Take Me Out covered by Guillemots
3. The dance scene from "A Relationship in Four Days"
4. Watching an outdoor jazz concert in the pouring rain at the zoo!
5. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee (again, because I can and should)

One last thing for me to mention in this inaugural post is the fact that we are, above all, together forever because of our mutual appreciation of Freaks and Geeks (before it was even cool). Speaking of which, the only thing about the Oscars that I saw and didn't cringe at was that Pineapple Express scene. TOO FUNNY.
