Down in Albion ... young love tripped up on a Rainbow

I have got myself a salaried job which is On The Career Ladder.

Now I have put down a holding deposit on a one bedroom flat on Coldharbour Lane.

I feel like a grown-up and it's un-nerving me a little.

I have just been to see Death and the King's Horseman at The National.

If you are able to, I strongly recommend that you do too. It isn't a long run though, so hop to it!

I feel right now like, finally, everything is going to be OK. Last Thursday I got offered what is basically my perfect job (could only be more perfect if it was staying at RWS). On Monday I passed my Summative assessment with 1,2,1 for the lesson and passed the course with 1,1,1. Today I got my salary offer from my new school, and they are starting me at MP3 which is beyond anything I could possibly have expected.

Now I am crying; maybe it is all a dream and any minute someone is going to start laughing and tell me it's all a big joke.

I've worked so hard for this.

Ok, so. I am not sure I have ever been more nervous than this. Perhaps the day I had to go into work after handing in my resignation last year, but that was a different kind of nervous.

I think I am going to vomit. Goodnight.
Mood: nauseous

Panic.

Milkshake is a totally acceptable breakfast food, right?

I'm so tired that my eyes are burning at 9.30am and I mounted the pavement and nearly mowed Evan down when I stopped to pick him up this morning (more apology cake? Probably). At the moment, I am enormously grateful for the 'Look Inside' option on Amazon, and that my mother taught me to lie, blag and cheat successfully.

I am tired enough that I nearly cried this morning when the news reporter discussed Man U fans saying Barcelona deserved to win last night because they were better. I hate football.

I am in fact tired enough that I am about to go and get tea from the staff room.

Hopefully it will all be worth it in the end.
Mood: folder folder folder die

How do you know when you *really* love a band? When a band is really truly special?

I'll tell you how I know.

I know because, no matter how many times I see them, no matter how many times I hear them, I feel like I am just about to burst. A kind of bubble swells inside me, filling me from the tips of my toes up, aching my jaw with a grin too wide, and drowning anything everything which came before it; sadness, stress, fear, anxiety, loneliness evaporate on a rainbow of untainted, untouchable glee.

I wish I knew more bands which made me feel that way, but perhaps it is better that I dont.

I really hope that this week will be over soon; if it isn't, I might die.

Also, I would like it if my head would stop hurting.

I feel like my head might explode any minute.

So much to do, so little time.

Brick brick brick brick bricking it.

I do not appreciate getting fascist propaganda through my doorway.

In protest, I have dug out one of my old UAF posters and stuck it up in my window. I am thinking of doing some counter-flyering in the area next weekend too.

Oh, and you know my old employers? The rich arseholes with the big house who don't give a toss about their children? They are even bigger cunts than I thought.
