People http://brickchick.blogdrive.com/archive/35.html Sat, 10 Sep 2005 07:30:38 GMT I go through phases of self-loathing sometimes, which I don't really like sharing with the people around me... I suppose that's what blogs are for, eh? For the past weeks I've been sitting around at home feeling incredibly restless, wanting to do something but unable to do anything so I just end up really frustrated... Then last night I actually did have plans but I couldn't bring myself to actually go out and go through with them... I'd been having a pretty bad couple of days, the heat was really getting to me I suppose... I've had what feels like a non-stop headache for the longest...

Now this is a big deal to me considering I seldom dream and even when I do it's few and far in between and I rarely if EVER remember any of them... Now dreams have long been considered the means through which your subconscience relates messages to you, or your heart telling you what it really wants, so when it comes to pass that I remember my dream, I take it seriously... So imagine my shock and horror when the one dream I've managed to remember vividly was one where I was directing porn in my apartment... =/ My immediate reaction was, naturally,...

While this has it's pros, sometimes I feel that the cons far outweigh them... While I enjoy the anti-hero movie just as much as the next guy, it makes me wonder if that could be part of what is causing the rise in crime rates... While before society has been fed the traditional villain in black hats with a hideous smirk on their faces, today's media criminals are smart and stylish and oh so sexy... Then there is the portrayal of the government as...

I figure I should open my own advice column... People seem to come to me for advice, regardless of the fact I know shit all about relationships or the fact that I've got bad taste in men... Whatever the case, I'm a great advice giver, even if I do say so myself... =P So since I'm such a great agony aunt and I love you guys so much, here are some handy tips on how to deal with those agonising few months when you like someone but aren't sure of how to go about it... Tip #1 : Make Sure He REALLY Likes You. Don't ever EVER jump the gun... That's just...

I mean way back when, coffee was just coffee and ordering it was simple as - 'One coffee please?'... Then a little later the sizes were introduced and you could now choose between a regular or a large... Then there was skim milk as opposed to regular milk... Which was cool since I could still understand what I'm ordering... Today, to order coffee you need to learn an entire new language, with foreign words like espresso, machiatto and frappes... Instead of saying coffee...

And I suppose all this is supposed to help you understand what it's all about and how to handle them... Anybody who's ever been through one will tell you that that is entirely untrue... My point of views always have to do with the media, mainly because I study but mainly because the media is what one considers a technology of perception, that is it structures a point of view that the audience is expected to accept unquestionably, because as much as we have to study audience...

I've got two suitcases full of clothes and like a gazillion on hangers... I'm still not sure how I'm going to fit all that in the little closet and the little chest of drawers... I seriously need a walk in closet... =P I go to these two forums every so often and one thread that they both have in common is a picture thread... Which is only natural, since there's a constant interaction between these people but it is almost entirely conducted behind the veil of a computer... Now me, I'm not very fond...

I'm doing great, although my walker's rage has increased since the last time I've blogged... More and more people annoy me when I'm doing my rounds although now I'm wondering if it's them or I'm just uh... An angry walker... =/ So anyway to take my mind off things I thought I'd do something I hadn't done in awhile (on the blog anyway)... So this marks the return of my Hot Men edition... [disclaimer] Just a little note to the readers - this post is entirely pointless and I'm too lazy to actually rant or rave or argue about something simply because I've...

I like my alone time... VERY much and if you happen to intrude on my alone time, woe betide you... However, I'm also okay with a group of people, if I feel like it... =P So yeah, what I'm trying to say is, I'm fairly moody but in general not a people person... Which is probably what leads to today's rant on annoying people walking... I went in to get groceries today and the mall was slightly crowded... I went around noon so heaps of people were in there getting their lunches... And that's totally fine... My...

Not that I deny watching them, I most certainly do, but I don't like them very much... I think they're mean, distasteful and incredibly silly... That said, there seems to be a certain appeal about them that I can't quite place my finger on... Something like the analogy of having to see a train wreck, even if it's a horrible sight to behold... But anyway, reality tv shows are getting meaner and meaner... Where the traditional reality shows seem to go on for 'the good' of the contestants (i.e. - dating shows where the girl...
