o chi wala

so Luci was about to get +10 for being cool and blogging it up until she ruined it and expressed discontent with knowing the going-ons (word?) of my life. so now she's down to a measly +2. in other news bruce is now -15 and amalia is a close 2nd with -8. and yes we are keeping track of these Paul Points. At the moment I am in the lead with no change in sight at +383,135 and Samantha is in dead last with -3,215 next to Mr. Bush with -3,213. That's right Sam. You're that bad. SOOOO very exciting news everyone:
Absentee Ballot received, sent, and sorted.
I made a photocopy of it first so I can remember forever that I voted against the mainstream corporatism-dominated two-party US system (I've since had to stop referring to it as 'American' due to the onslaught by fellow South and Central American compatriots. UK passport got shot down, something about me not being a British citizen came into play, not guinness. Last night I saw a totally cracked out play at the National Theatre, 'Buried Child' and it was like 50% funny and 50% totally wtf.
so while i concur completely that coffee is quite the nonsense i'm surprised this is a new development in la vie de luci. being master of the universe i knew since 2 weeks conception that coffee was evil addictive growth-stunting stuff. and the whole dependency thing with the headaches is bad as well. its like alcoholism minus the alcohol. speaking of which i wrote my first beaver article on agent orange in the vietnam war!! very cool. writing articles is easy i dont know what susie keeps going on about taking up all her time and so on.
broadband is in the works ladies and gentlemen. soon skype will be a reality for me once more and we will take back this country. take it back for the working class! ok a little carried away.
saw the debates. stayed up til 4. i dont like either of them. bush needs to go back to 5th grade and kerry needs to change his name to Ralph Nader and get serious about having good policies. and chill with being so bourgie. Nader has like one suit. mad pimp. the dutch legal type that is.

OK so i think i've done the blog thing for right now. tonight will feature me and 3 books getting kinda freaky. might bust out the highlighter and a little disco. see what goes down. may take some pictures for the net. check back for the good stuff.

i miss and love you all!

Sitting at the bar with my laptop looking like a nerd

OK so today is October 2 and I am being ghetto and writing this at home and then going to the wireless-enabled pub—‘the belle vue’ to post it on the net since I don’t have broadband yet and dial-up isn’t 1p/min like I thought its 4.5p/min (!!) So this week involved me working on this race project for the secretariat project in terms of undergrad admissions—good stuff. Took up all my daytime from half 9 in the morning to 5 everyday. Oh wait before that I had a good flight and stuff, slept most of the time. Looked up new york in virgin guide and found lots of cool places I’ve never been before (Republic is in the guide of around 40 places!!) so ya made me feel like a non-new yorker bad scene. Class starts Monday at 9am (ugh) so that’s going to be some macroeconomic funness. Sam & Susie: we can revise for midterms or something together!! I hope my teachers are good and stuff. Dvorak’s new world symphony just came on. Quality. So ya toms out at harrods with his parents buying furniture for their flat in Chelsea (how bourgeois is that?). Tom’s quite the strange creature I’ve noticed. His dad makes money hand over fist yet he works from 9 to 7 in the conference office Monday thru Friday for the past 3 weeks. So ya its good he doesn’t just mooch from his dad (aka the American tradition) but off too far the other way. Everyones come back for this week and he’d work til 7 and miss out on valuable pre-term chilltime. Ah well, better be too much of a worker bee than a lazy piece of rubbish like virtually all of america’s wealthy teenagers. This morning and afternoon (ok I woke up at noon so afternoon) was really nice, walked round clapham common with tom for some lunch and it was really nice and sunny and lots of shops, cafes, everything. Now its cloudy and that’s not the way to go about it is it mother nature? Build me up buttercup just ended—I thought I was listening to dvorak? Winamp’s pulling a fast one on me.

So last night was the first crush and as always it seemed even more packed than the last time. Its safest to not change locales more than once every 30 mins or else you get so angry u just end up pushing everyone out of your way which doesn’t fly with the hundreds of peoples everywhere. Oh and the student union bars were refurbished this summer (at a cost of £850,000!) so no longer do they look dodgy they’re like proper wine-bar-esque with leather sofas and nice wood tables and glass walls looking out onto Houghton street and all that. Kinda weird considering they’re planning to destroy the whole building in a few years anyway cuz its old and rubbish… sounds like the british way of wasting money but oh well while I’m here I get to enjoy a swanky place (even though I definitely forsee it getting wrecked after a couple crushes).

So Nicolas in the tradition of being a pimp pulled two girls last night one was actually from new jersey (aka Geneva) the other was from the far east I think I didn’t get a chance to screen her for extra-shadiness like I did the first one lol. Markus got to work on the finnish constituency which was crazy cuz I never really heard finnish spoken like that and now I know why. And me I got to kick it with the trashed british boys singing dancing on the nice wooden tables and stuff of that sort. Hey 2 good cinemas around the clapham picture house and the ritzy (sp?) so im looking forward to checking them out. They’re both independent and play new movies as well as old classics and the clapham picture house even has the kids club on Saturdays at 11.15am and today they played Aladdin!! How awesome is that? I think I wanna go next Saturday. Ugh 3 of my Listerine tongue-thingies are all busted up cuz of the humidity. I hate it when that happens.

I miss you guys a lot but I think once I get broadband set up this year should be better than last in terms of keeping touch a la skype as long as some individuals (ahem bruce) get their shit together. I’m a little unresolved on the emotional love front but I guess that’s how it goes. Oh wait here comes the sun thru the clouds. Nice.
