Still alive.
Hannah xx :: +Memory :: Tell a Friend :: Reply A bit less rage today. Probably a good thing...
Hannah xx Fuck I hate drunk people. I loathe and detest them with every fibre of my being. And now they're going to be in the same house as me for at least a fortnight and I genuinely want to stab someone because I don't think it'd be a great pity if I hurt someone.
Hannah New house. Champagne in a milk glass. Cartoons. Cleaning.
Hannah xx If I had more money I'd buy this evening dress, this mosaic and pearl bracelet, these victorian-style leather boots and these blue over-the-knee boots.
Not to wear all at once, obviously. Alas, I'm broke, and thus will have to make do with what I have. Hannah xx Sometimes I wish Portland would never end. It's always the best time of the year...

Rock-A-Doodle. --- Hannah xx Do you know what the worst thing is about having the lease expire?
Having to leave Jingles. She's sleek and healthy, and mooches food from everyone in a 500m radius so she's sure as hell not going to starve, but she's lying next to me purring and I can't help feeling that I'm abandoning her a la Mitten's owner in Bolt. We buy her cat food and she sleeps on our bed, but she's not our cat so there's no way we could take her with us without breaking her real owners heart. Only leaving her here is going to break my heart. I had a dream last night about Idiot Syndrome and a man called Exultant Thromboyer. I wish I could remember it. House inspections going so-so. We've looked at a few good places and a few utterly horrible ones. The problem is that we're in the middle of the real estate rush period where everyone is out looking for houses, so there's some pretty steep competition. I don't want to leave the eastern suburbs. Does that make me a snob? Probably. We're staying open-minded though. On the bright side, there has never been a point in my life where I haven't felt that things will work out. Hooray for a thin veneer of mild, unwarranted optimism! I quit my job at That Unnamed Sandwich Place (glaringly obvious code name) after less than a fortnight, which I'd normally feel bad about. But it turns out that the store was horrible and the two other new people quit immediately too, so it was less a case of me being finicky and more a case of them being horrible employers. Anyway, I went online today and they're re-advertising the position - hopefully they'll work out that unpaid overtime and a messy store = horrible staff retention. Morons. Also, I'm now a brunette. More later. Or possibly next week. Hannah xx 2009 - A YEAR IN PICTURES
I'm sure I was probably asked Before I was born, by someone from somewhere "I will make it so you can see Either the past or the future, so Which do you want?" And then I probably chose the past So that I can become, so I may become, A kind person rather than a strong person So that I understand what "memories" are ![]() ![]() ![]() Continuing, that somebody said to me "Arms, legs, mouths, ears, eyes, Hearts, breasts, and the holes in your nose, I'll give you two of each, So isn't that great?" But I asked a favour "I'm fine with just one mouth" I said So that I don't fight with myself So that I can only kiss one person ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This kind of feeling that I want to forget, but can't What do you call it? That person with a slightly displeased face He began to speak again, because he had to "The heart, which is most important I'll put one in each side of your chest, so Isn't that great?" ![]() ![]() ![]() Yet again I asked a favour "I'm sorry, but as for me I don't need the heart on my right side Sorry for always saying selfish things" That is so that when I meet an important person And I hold her I will understand for the first time That our two beats sound on both sides of our chest. The left is mine, and the right is yours The left is yours, and the right is mine So that when I am alone, there is something missing So that I do not live on alone ![]() ![]() This kind of feeling that I want to forget, but can't What do you call it? My chest is a flutter, but this kind of feeling Tis so nostalgic, what do you call it? ![]() ![]() "By the way, There's just one more thing Should I add 'tears' as an option? Even without it, there is no impediment, but Some people don't add it, because it's a pain. What will you do?" And then, I asked for it So that I can become, so I may become A kind person rather than a strong person So that I understand what "importance" is ![]() "So, by the way, as for the flavour of the tears Choose a flavour you like They're sour, salty, Hot, sweet, Choose any one you like Which one do you want?" Has everything been granted The way you hoped? So show me your face That is always crying Well, show me proudly" ![]() "Thank you very much Sorry to have troubled you with so much May I ask just one last thing - Have we met somewhere before?" -Radwimps, 'Ordermade' Hannah xx I love the festive season. I really do - at no other point does emigration sound so tempting. Needless to say, Christmas this year did not go well and I fully plan on leaving the state before the next one.
The next couple of months look to be interesting anyway. And by interesting I mean strange. --- Stolen apples taste the sweetest See them hanging in the pale moonlight You won’t feel those cuts and grazes As you reach out for your prize in the night And pluck it down and take that very first bite “Don’t tell anyone our secrets” Said the farmer to his darling wife “There are some here in the district Not so happy with their lot in this mean, old life. Now, sweetheart, won’t you pass me the paring knife” Stolen apples, plucked down in their prime Stolen apples, hanging heavy on my mind Eve called Adam in the garden “Hey Ad, come over here and look at these, won’t you try some?” “Oh, no” said Adam “That’s forbidden!” “Come on now, baby” said Eve, “What could be wrong with just one little one?” So Adam bit and cried out “That’s the bomb! That’s the bomb!” Stolen apples taste the sweetest Stolen apples taste the sweetest - Paul Kelly, 'Stolen Apples' ![]() Hannah xx |
