Duhhhh but what a SCUMBAG! Seriously, I once liked John Edwards, thought of him as a pretty nice guy. Apparently he's just a sleazy old man who enjoys fathering children with other women while his wife suffers through cancer.

This Looks SOOOO much better than the Snuggie! Motivation for getting a job!

This blog post by Roger Ebert about his journey from losing his ability to speak to his finding his ability to write again is amazing. I really enjoy Ebert's blog and twitter and I stupidly did not realise his illness had robbed him of the ability to speak. It really says a lot not only about the power of written word, but also of social media. Anyways, have a read through.

I have no idea what this film is about. It combines a ghost story with a literary festival with a love triangle and it's set in Ireland. BUT it does involve Cieran Hinds speaking in her real accent and since I love Ciaran so much maybe I'll see it. But probably not... Though I'll see if it's actually released. Or I'll just watch Persuasion over and over again.

O.M.G. Apparently Farrah's mom on Teen Mom (and previously 16 and Pregnant) was arrested for assaulting Farrah! MAJOR DRAMA. Even though Farrah is the worst mom ever, I think her mom should deal with her major anger issues. I mean on the show it's hard deciding which one is the bigger bitch. Though, I hope Farrah is okay. I don't even think Butch would beat his children...

This is the view from my window around 1245. It looked like this from the moment I woke up until the sun started setting. And it will look like this again tomorrow, and the next day, and the next days, and on and on and on.

S.A.D. Music

My weather induced feelings make me suddenly relate to every Smiths song. FUN.

Mehhh

I volunteered all day today. The Youth Club workshop we were running completely fell apart when like only 3 people showed up. That being said, I think it really helped us to realize we need to be ready for anything. Also, it was really interesting talking to the kids and their youth club leader. Their perspectives on human rights were really interesting. Though, all forms of structure dissolved and we just ended up having an informal conversation, which I didn't think was so bad, though others in my group might have.

I feel so stressed this week and occasionally melancholic. Like I'm a complete life failure. I feel like my essay was shit, I have no work ethic and I'm concerned about my thesis. Oh and I'm being really stupid about finding a job. I just need to get on with it and apply for things. Wahhh. I honestly just want to crawl in a hole and eat chocolate. Or I want someone to hold me. But finding a large hole will probably be easier.
