Date: 2nd August 2007 Time:22:05 Weather/Mood: Suprisingly warm. Good!
Whoah, its August, and its only just started getting warmer!!! I thought the world was turning into Narnia and it was going to be winter forever!
Still, glad ‘Elio the Sun God’ has actually done some work – we have warmth at last!! *rejoices*
So, what have I been upto these past few days? Sunday and Monday I was working, and on Monday I discovered the good weather can make people turn into monsters! Not literally, obviously, but I got a helluva lot of customers in a bad mood. Maybe its coz the kids are off school? Who knows?! Although, recent research has shown warmer weather leads to higher suicide rates. How depressing! Apparently, suicide rates rise dramatically once temperatures reach 18c. And then, it rises by about 4% I think, every degree after that (I can’t remember exact figures). They put it down to ‘higher irritability’ or something. Suprising a? Anyhoo, Tuesday was good too. Went bowling, but really hurt my ankle
I hit the inside of it on a metal pole – very painful! But Im okayish now!
Oo, I went to London yesterday! Was very fun, went round Camden with a couple of mates and met a couple more up there. We then moved onto Oxford Circus after a good look round for spray paint (not for me might I add!) and t-shirts. When in Oxford Circus sitting out the front of ‘The Plaza’, me and two mates got approached by a random guy asking for a cigarette. Did he ask for one like anyone normal would? No. No disrespect to black people (I love you all!) but he was doing the stereotypical ‘black’ person greeting (or maybe its just a guy thing?), but the funny handshake-cross-high-five thing and proceeded to kiss my hand. He then noticed ‘Friend A’ was wearing a top which said ‘Animal’ and laughed and congulated him on being a (and I quote) “dawg”. At this point we were confused about why he approached us (I diiid have a sneaky suspicion). Finally he asked for a cigarette and lit it, and asked ‘Friend B’ to hold it while he went in a shop. Why light it if you’re going into a shop?! Now I don’t know, but surely thats a waste of the beginning of the cigarette. Eventually he did come back and did the handshake blah and kissed my hand yet again. Strange experience… Still, I came home with a few goodies! =] Two CDs (One I was given, and its quite good actually!), 4 DVDs (coming to a total of £18 - not bad!) and a couple of things from Lush.
Saw The Simpsons Movie today, was quite funny actually! Considering I’m not fussed with The Simpsons (I prefer Futurama!), I still giggled quite a bit!
Anyways, I had better go, I gotta get up early for work tomorrow. And Saturday. And Sunday. Lucky me!
Night!
