So I was denied buying Lemsip.
Which really fucking pissed me off. The saleswoman asked me at the checkout ‘can I see some ID’ Since when do you need ID to purchase lemsip. What the hell? What am I gonna go home and get high off lemsip. Snort it up like a fucking lemsip junkie. It’s not even nice! People don’t take that shit for fun. I’m fucking ill, and I’m not allowed to buy lemsip, because...

Spent the day so far
Lying in bed singing ‘a very potter musical’ songs, grinning madly while watching Darren Criss interviews and perving on Emma Watson. I am not ashamed.
Bjork - Hidden Place
asimpledare:
Hidden Place’ is sort of about how two people can create a paradise just by uniting. You’ve got an emotional location that’s mutual. And it’s unbreakable. And obviously it’s make-believe. So, you could argue that it doesn’t exist because it’s invisible, but of course it does. And it’s sort of a one-nil situation.” - Bjork

“Isn’t the perfect relationship about filling in those holes in each other, so that two people become one? Yeah, that’s what I thought (sadly). But I don’t know, really. I used to have all these opinions about love because I’m fierce, a helpless romantic. What happened is my expectations about…

My mother never ceases to piss me off.
Even on Christmas day she’s fucking shouting, going off on one about nothing in particular. She’s never satisfied I asked her what she wanted for christmas, she said ‘doctor Quinn medicine woman dvd’s’ which I bought, and she’s shouting down the house saying why I didn’t buy her something better, like the perfumes I bought for my aunts. Maybe because she...

Solstice Lunar Eclipse Tonight! →
oceanofmind:
“The eclipse begins on Tuesday morning, Dec. 21st, at 1:33 am EST (Monday, Dec. 20th, at 10:33 pm PST). At that time, Earth’s shadow will appear as a dark-red bite at the edge of the lunar disk. It takes about an hour for the “bite” to expand and swallow the entire Moon. Totality commences at 02:41 am EST (11:41 pm PST) and lasts for 72 minutes.

Today, another group says they’ve found something else in the echo of the Big Bang. These guys start with a different model of the universe called eternal inflation. In this way of thinking, the universe we see is merely a bubble in a much larger cosmos. This cosmos is filled with other bubbles, all of which are other universes where the laws of physics may be dramatically different to ours.

aha, I look forward to it. Good luck in your exams! :)

MusingsOnMarriage.
So today I was talking to one of the girls in my philosophy class, when she randomly came out with ‘I went to a jewelers the other day right, and can you imagine the most expensive ring they had was 20,000’, to which my reply was yes, quite ludicrous indeed. Then she replied ‘no, I mean how bad is that, I think if you get married the ring should be the most expensive thing, way...

oceanofmind:
Divine Love is not human ‘romantic’ love. It is of a spiritual nature, it is all-encompassing and unconditional. Divine Love is often attributed only to God and/or spiritual beings. Yet as we are all sparks of the Creator (the Divine), and as the Creator IS LOVE, we are therefore also Love -…

The end of Mr Y.
Just finished reading it. Possibly the best book i’ve read thus far. Incredibly thought provoking. Definately a favourite that I could read again, which is saying something. I never read books twice. Now, I’m reading ‘The Noetic Universe: scientific explanations for psychic phenomena’ -should be good eh?
I’m only a few pages in, but one of the things they’ve...

Christmas?
So, I was in the library the other day, studying, when my attention drifted to some old, battered, mythology and folklore books. Naturally I picked them up and began reading. They turned out to be pretty interesting, well, to me anyway. One of them was about old pagan traditions, and one of the points made was that when Christianity, and all the other major religions were first...
fuckelle asked: She probably don't feel like touring, after doing that massive 2 year world tour.
