A response, because I can
I like procrastination.
I has been decided my apparent Emoness is just an unfortunate collision between my punk/goth sensibilitys and a hefty dosage of pirate (hence the love of all things striped). I'm prolly to old to be emo anyways.
But my point is clearly i am a pirate:
Are you a Pirate?
You are Captain Flint. Most cruel and wickedhearted pirate of them all, you are. Indeed, though only a pirate of imagination are ya my lad. (Or lass, as the case may be.)You are a Captain though and as such command power. I was going to say respect but fear is a rather more accurate term. Isn't it, sneaky?

I've been Worried
First off this posting ever day thing has kinda gone to hell, oh well, i have exams to study for and a boring life!!
But the subject of this post is to assauge a fear i have had for a while. Its difficult for me to say this but i was worried i might be *whisper* Emo...
I kno i kno the outrage, but well I do like the pink and black stripes or the red and black stripes, but that can be attributed to my inner pirate, however the more worrying is the bands sneaking on to my playlists, Panic at the disco, fall out boy and most recently and concerningly My Chemical Romance. so i felt something had tobe done.
I did what anyone would do under the circumstances i turned to the internet for self diagnosis. seems there are many quizzes as to whether one is Emo, the results were thus:
Are You Emo?
Are you emo?
you dont know much about Emo so here is some facts.Emo is an Art and it stands for Emotional Hardcore. Rites of spring was one of the first emo bands and you cant say My Chemical Romance and the used is Emo.the answers to the last question:Ampere, Braid and Embrace is the Emo bands. TBS, GD and MCR is not pure emo.

You are almost emo. You listen to music with emo lyrics like Linkin Park (crawling in my skin) but haven't really ventured into the acoustic sounds of the true emo audiophile. You might have shaggy hair, but only because you're lazy, not really because you strive for emo-ness.

I like pink
What kind of knitting needles are you?
You are pink aluminum.Retro, straightforward and fun, you love classic things. If they're 99 cents at Goodwill all the better! You are moved by striking colors and tasty morsels, and you like a stitch-n-bitch session in the sun. Just remember, while you're being kitschy cool, don't get too cold. Ice cubes are best kept in your cocktails, baby!

Upon the oddness of my father
My dad decided he wanted to cycle to school, but as this involved buggering big hills (or certain death) he decided against a more traditional style bike and bougth this bad boy:Tis a hybrid, electricy job, which you can either have powered, assisted pedal or just plain pedalling.
Thus he has taken to stoating about on it! In the week and a bit he's had it he's acrued nearly 100miles!
(its actually kinda fun wheeching about on it but shh, i still think he's weird)

In which my goth/punk sensibilites are revealed
I said i got something at the Christmas markets. Its not what one traditionally what one would imagine one would get! In amongst the twee shite was a sorta alternativey clothing stall
I got this:
(apologies for the posing, its troublesome to photo oneself efficiently)
An attempt at a back view, didnt work terribly but i think its a kinda cool photo
I likes my new Jacket (tho mother did question if i have enough to wear a different one every day of the year...)

Un Bunnet
I had a copy of winter 06 IK on my bed one day that Katy was visiting, she started flicking as is her ilk and encountered the tweed beret pattern, she declared her desire for such a hat and thus it was:Yarn is leftover New Lanark stuffs from Durrow, isnt she cute as a button.
Sad to say the hat looks far better on her than me, i lack thehair to pull it off...
