The Sky Isn't Always Blue...

I have recently been very intrigued by the trend  of people uploading images of the contents of their bags. I even recall a photography website running a competition based on the theme. After careful consideration, and even more self convincing, I've decided to bite the bait...



The brown Baggit wallet (I refuse to call it a purse) has been in use for over a year now. Strange, because until it I used to switch to a new, or old, wallet practically every week.

The Fast Track sunglasses (my first indulgence for the big move to foreign land) are in my bag constantly now that the British weather has decided to behave.

The Samsung Galaxy 3 Android phone. I call him Diablo. Undoubtedly the love of my life.

The red Sony Walkman player. I call her Juanita. Ruby seemed too cliched, don't you think?

The Beatles I Am The Walrus compact mirror. Because everyone girl needs one. And I am Lady Madonna!

The Maybeline bronzer, the Victoria Secret lip gloss, and the Maybeline Night Shine lip gloss. I am a girl. I have my moments.

I love collecting keychains, but I never knew how much I'd love using multiple ones at the same time. At the moment, its got a Beatles keychain, one from the Roman Bath, and one from Wimbledon 2011 that was a gift from the boy.

As a student in a foreign country, one that insists on id'ing me for everything, including buying a scissors, I am never without my passport. Can't help it, they need to know.

Of course, the faithful Orbit gum. I love chewing gum. I love Orbit.

More often than not, I will have a book in my bag. At the moment, that book is The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Oh and yes, I need glasses when I read, so it goes with me everywhere too!

Feel like you know me yet?

Possibilities

Limitless.
Achievable.
Must be imagined.

Blind Curve

The comfort of the unknown.
Bliss.

A Little Birdie Told Me...

There's a reason why we call it the past. There's no need to discuss the etymology of it all, but you're right to assume it is because it has passed.

Everyone has a past. Good. Bad. Grey.

When it comes back to haunt you, it gets bad. When it comes back never to leave, it gets worse. You can control your mind to stop the ghosts from visiting. Condition it, if that works better. What do you do about a physical being? Ignore it? Confront it?

You wait. Because karma has a way of making her presence felt.

You wait. And forget to watch.

You smile. You forgot.

No One Said It'd Be Easy

You come and go. Think. Listen. Feel.
There's often a silence accompanying most of it. Does it ever occur to you? Yes, no?
Realisation is always hindsight oriented. What's so wrong with the present?
Perhaps an epiphany is the way to go. Or maybe, ease is elusive.

How To Disappear Completely

Leave a note
Unknown words of hidden meanings
Leave a message
Prolific thoughts of conceptual notions
Absolute paranoia
Semblance of understanding
A goodbye?
A hello?
Follow the resurgence, appreciation
The best friend
Pleasure in the mind
Destruction of the body
Wave
Walk
Vanish
** Yes, Radiohead inspired me.

The Blueberry Cheesecake Topology

Its easy to be misunderstood at 23
The rationale of every age, every man
The lament of life

I want to be a woman of the world
Ok with the size I am
I can dress and flaunt
Sleep with who I want
I am rich, I see the world
I have babies
But I'm not a whore

I won't change at 23
Time to make your peace
There are no what ifs
Only mistakes of now

I want freedom
Refusing conformity
Listening, scoffing, living
Doing what I want
Shout, rejoice
Living off dreams and wishes
But I'm not insane

The wine
The song
The missable signs

Melancholy has a date
Fly southwards
