couldn't help myself

okay. i know i said i wasn't going to do anymore posting until my business plan was complete, but let's be honest here...this is the time i need the blog the most. i need to do something in order to NOT work on my business plan. really i have until the 4th of the february. today is the 24th nay the 25th. so far, it isn't challenge time yet.

and maybe, just maybe, a few people might look forward to seeing a post from me. of course, i could be wrong.

folks, i had a wild night on friday. no, really. an actual wild night that could be an interesting story if i knew how to write well.

friday was the conclusion of something called "enterprise week". we had 3 speakers come in and talk about publishing companies they have set up. we also had a lot of free coffee and biscuits. during our free luncheon buffet, megan and i did a little box defense to deter non-ma students from eating our food. didn't work so well, but i did do a little arguing with one student before he ate our hummous sandwiches. i think he felt a twinge of guilt.

the day at school made me feel happy to be learning about publishing. wow, it only took about about 4 months for that to happen.

later that night we had a fancy dinner at stationer's hall. i've included a couple of pictures of the evening. i did not take these pictures. i don't know who did, but they were on our announcement board and now they are on my blog.






don't know if those pictures are even going to come up or not. i'm trying something new. go with it. the last photo is of femi, one of our course reps. i love the expression on his face. i imagine him shaking his head immediately after the photo was taken and saying something like "why, why did you have to take a picture?" he would say it in his slow, calming, femi-like way.

the dinner was lovely. they even served us port, brandy and chocolates afterward. i liked this part the best because it made me feel fancy.

after dinner, a few of us went to a pub. there i watched a lovely irish girl, nimah, dance and sing about being a leperuchan. i do not know how to spell this word and i am too lazy to look at a dictionary. you will have to deal.

after the pub, we took a taxi to soho. while in soho, we caught a pole dancing show at a strip club.

and that is where i will end my story.

on hold

so, it doesn't look like i'll be posting much anytime soon. not that i have really lately anyway. my business plan is due 4 february and i've been working and well, busy. so, after that day i'll probably hook it up again.

until then, as richard marx once said, "hold on to the night, hold on to the memories"

london is being london today. occasional drizzle and lots of wind. very grey and beautiful.

i do believe that my cold is all gone!

i'm angry with the green bay packers. did they not care how much i wanted to stay up late and watch them during the super bowl? how rude.

going to cafe 1001 tomorrow to work on the finished presentation for friday. it will be completed by the time i leave that damn cafe. i'm excited.

i will always be a last minute person. screw the thought of even trying to change that. instead i will learn to except and be proud of it.

tiny lips

yo.

saw a woman wearing red red lipstick today. it looked silly because her lips were so thin. they looked like this:

-------V---------
------------------ no, she did not smile.

seriously, there was a giant V on her top lip. very defined. maybe she wore the bright red color because she thought the giant V was endearing. i thought it was weird.

difference of opinion, i guess

the new year rang clear

good day to you all (evening here of course)

haven't posted in awhile so HAPPY NEW YEAR to you now, though it is the 6th and we are well into 2005.

i was all excited about putting up a guestbook and having my photo on my blog and then....it all fell apart. i'm working on getting the blog all spruced up again, but am starting to stress about upcoming assignments and such.

tomorrow i'm going to try really hard to wake up early and get some stuff done. i have to go to the main office over on davies street and see about some new housing then i have to get my check from the pub (ugh the pub) then i want to pick up a little something for mi madre for her birthday. i need to get over to westminister and check out stained glass picture postcards for kari. maybe go to liberty and get that pattern for those wrist warmers. continue work on assignments, email people back, scan in some new pictures, dream about buying a digital camera, send cheripaul that 'prize'.......can all of those things be new year's resolutions?

oh yeah, i fixed the comment thing (i think) you should be able to comment onto any post i have now.

tonight i had lindsey and megan over for dinner. well, not really lindsey because she is doing this detox thing and didn't eat the pasta i made, poo on her.

we watched the LIVE broadcast of the new celebrity big brother launch. holy crap, they call those people celebs? frickin' brigette from that dang surreal life is on this big brother!! i'm going to do my best to get involved in the show because so many people do over here. i feel it is my duty to observe and participate in this culture...i'll try anyway.

this post is so lame. grrr....will try better nice time

g'night y'all
