Uni-less blog attempt 2

Does anyone know how you can transfer everything to the new email account? I know you can transfer the contacts etc but can you transfer the blog? as an archive in a new url or something? I hate having two accounts. My brain cells are already scattered all over the place as things are. Oh God who's gonna comment anyway?

Yesterday I watched TWO emo couples smooching rather ungracefully on the bus. It put me off love for a while.

I have just seen one of the most cringeworthy covers ever. Malta's very own national icon of pre-pubescent pretentiousness, Sophie, covering one of the most cringeworthy and absurd songs to ever pollute the radiowaves- Fergalicious by Fergie. And you haven't heard the worst part yet. She turned it into Sophalicious!!!!! Atrocities of three hundred and sixty degrees' eye-rolling extent!!! Suddenly I'm so happy I was a frizzy-haired nerd when I was young.

uni-less blog attempt 1

I have not updated this thing in ages cos I have had the most treacherous thoughts against it. I recently got me a new google account. Bunbury09 did not seem professional enough in my dealings with the university so I had to get an email address that sounded serious- so I got me elgalea. With elgalea came a new account which was separate from the one to which this blog pertains, so my loyalty was tested haha. But here I am again, so much has happened. My sister spread her wings and flew to Brussels and I do not know when she'll be back to her beloved island in the sun. She took my laptop with her- and i do not miss the poor thing (the laptop I mean, not my sister) so much because it was a rather functional relationship that we had. Now I have my sister's computer instead. It is incredibly slow but its clumsiness is somehow endearing, and reminds me of someone....hint,hint... hinting at myself if you haven't noticed.

A friend dared me to write an entry without mentioning uni and this obviously put a total nerd like me at a loss. But let's talk about work. I'm working twice a week proofreading and subbing at a newspaper. It's a nice job cos it's rather interesting and it's in a quiet office with civilised people rather than in a wild classroom with sex-crazed foreigners with strangely comical accents. Moreover, I only go in twice a week so I can still manage to be a full-time student (i HAD to mention uni!). On Saturdays I'm alone downstairs except for my dear boss (if you could call her so, she's so sweet!) who comes at some point in the morning/afternoon. I love mumbling and muttering a commentary to the press releases on the computer screen rather than delivering a lesson. I'm so happy that I chose to abandon teaching- It is quite irreconcilable with my character, for want of a better word.

Going out is not so high on my list lately cos I've had it up to here with Paceville- th smell of wine, the same songs over and over again, the never-ending waiting for the flippin' vans and taxis, the angry woman at wembley's, the .. aargh never mind.. I've just had enough. Which sucks because I'm an abysmal driver and I won't get my licence anytime soon. I did manage to skip pv for three weekends though. One weekend we watched Atonement, the next we dined at Marsaxlokk for Demelsa's birthday and this one I stayed at home. Call me old, but I was looking forward to it. I know I'm a rather boring friend to have at the moment but I think Claire and Desiree went out anyway so that's good.

Signing off now because I have some important stuff to finish before I travel to the Land of Nod. And ps, I have to mention uni to say- I'm really really happy with my course. wiiiii

Take care
