Slashers for more porn!

Whoo for me. And... um... lilka, cucharita, sexy_saba, emerald_embers and mad_mosher. We are doing this. I think.
And apart from that... a lot has happened over the weekend, but I'll get into it when I have more time for angsting. Not now. Not while cucharita is playing Punk Rock Princess at top volume and I'm happy.

"And he said to me, one day you'll be a man, and men can do terrible things."

The cherry tree in the quad has blossomed pink over the last two days. Along with the faux-Wordsworth daffodils and rain-laden breeze, it feels like spring has come. Nearly, anyhow. It may launch itself upon us any day soon.

The day has been better than expected. Becca told me her tale of woe - apparently, the cinema thingit was not good, and she had to walk to the station in pouring rain. She had an amusing encounter at lunchtime - a set of girls in the year below talking very loudly about "Tom Jones." Becca suspected... and she was right. Apparently they all fancy him. Becca is mystified. I don't blame her, really, but it's not a situation I will ever be in.

The afternoon passed without incident. I had what will henceforth be known as the History Lesson With Three Videos. Two of them were about the Arab-Israeli conflict, okay-ish, but the other one was the horrible one. It was about the Holocaust. Images from the Warsaw ghetto progressed into secret photgraphs taken at Auschwitz, and Jews being shot, falling into graves they had dug themselves, and children clinging to their mothers' hands as they were herded into the gas chambers. And then the signs - "Achtung Juden!" - and the golden stars of David, and finally Auschwitz as it is today - derelict and scarred by flames.

That video finished to complete silence in the room.

Oh, yes... this isn't much of an update, but Hannah left some ( Pics )

Notebook

I've decided I shouldn't use my rough book for writing in school any more - so I've dug out a new notebook for the purpose. It's got a boring green cover, so I'm in the process of covering it with nice pics. So far, I have a nice pic of Andrew McMahon looking edible, one of Kurt Cobain looking angsty, one of Hawk and Trap being slashy, and the pic in this post. [Laura - if you don't want me to use it, lemme know and I won't]
I include the link to make a point. I may have whumped Daniel on occasion. But that pic is not a manip. If the canon can do that to him, then I don't think I can be blamed for giving him a whump or two on my ownsome.

Don't know what other pics I can use. Might even use one of the ones I scanned in yesterday, actually. Hmm. Shall have to think about it. When I'm done I'll scan it in.

Notebook quotes

I'm really enjoying this notebook-customisation thing. My next idea was to put quotes on the inside covers, too. That means I get to pick my favourite ones, which is always good.
So far, I have chosen:

"You're restless, and I'm naked, and you've gotta get out, you can't stand to see me shaking." - Something Corporate; Konstantine

"What would you think of me now?
So lucky, so strong, so proud?" - Jimmy Eat World; Hear You Me

"In the empty corners of the evening,
In the vacant beauty of the wind." - October Project; Something More Than This

"And she knows she's more than a little misunderstood,
She has trouble acting normal when she's nervous." - Counting Crows; Round Here

"And when everything's made to be broken,
I just want you to know who I am." - Goo Goo Dolls; Iris

"Light my candles, in a daze 'cause I found God." - Nirvana; Lithium

And just because:

"Fuck me, fuck you, fuck you!" - Jack off Jill; Angels fuck, Devils Kiss
