Sound bites

Man this term is tough. I have work due on Friday and more due the next Friday so I know I'll be busy the next few days. I'm here racking my brain for ideas of what to write that wont take me too much time. I have some ideas that will take me hours because I need to research pictures etc. Instead, I though I'd give you all some tidbits of whats happening in my life. Sound bites which can be used against me when I'm all famous.

- I'm re-learning how to flirt! Talking to some boys in my class I was saying how pathetic they are. They see a cute girl then sort of glance at her, but if she doesn't make a move, they sit still. And these are the young-uns! And then they complain about lack of sex. So I'm brushing up on techniques and becoming quite successful, at least until the talking and getting interested& phone number stage! hahaha. My technique is so far, just smiling. Might need some extra work. I also have to direct my smile properly, all these cuties are at most 22 years old!! I don't think I can do it.

- I missed most of the great winter sales and now of course it got colder here. Ugh the wind and humidity really bite into you. I wanted a nice coat and ended up with 50 -75% off boots and trousers for the formula one gig. A friend from school lent me a lovely coat of hers one night. something that would cost about 1000 pounds she said. Must get sugar-daddy soon!

- On a similar note. Do you know what a WAG is? I think it stands for Wives And Girlfriends, but its basically all the wives of football players here in London. They all basically look and dress the same, have poor taste in clothes but lots of money, so all they do is shop. Was discussing with friends if the wife of a Formula One driver would be a WAG?! And was wondering if I would have to learn how to dress like one. Heehee


So they sort of look like this:

- One of the young, pathetic, but cute boys in my class, said he would introduce me to his dad, who is definitely the sugar-daddy type. He said he would love me for a step-mother!! I said we could all be a happy family, his dad, my sugar-daddy and he, my boy-toy! Lovely! now others are jealous and they all want to introduce their dads to me!

- There's a girl in class who keeps falling asleep. Its not unusual, there are others. But 1) this is in morning lectures and 2) she's the type of person who almost falls off her chair when she nods off (her head and upper body lean over, then her head bobs to the left... then bobs to the right.. then bobs to the left.. until she almost falls over at which point you might think she wakes up, but she doesnt really) and 3) she's taken to sitting right in front of the lecturer. Perhaps this last point is because she wants to stay awake, but it doesn't work and it's really embarrassing! I feel so bad. Some of the lectures are actually really interesting, and there she is bobbing right and left obviously asleep. I keep kicking at her under her chair, but no use. ALthough truely.. people text, talk, sleep...

- My new "bosses" are very sweet. There's a lot to do at their gallery and I'm going to be doing some advanced stuff for no pay, but its worth it while I don't get another internship. I organized all their files and will contruct a data-base for them. I'm also researching marketing and media resources as well as manning the gallery desk whenever they need me too.. usually on Friday afternoons and Saturdays.

- The types that come into the gallery are pretty funny. Last Saturday a big, older black guy with drealocks came in with his adult daughter. While she was rolling her eyes and looked like she couldn't wait to get out of there, he was explaining that he thought he could paint just like the artist and that he thought he could probably make some money doing that sort of thing. I had nothing to do, so I indulged him. I said he should go after it.. take a painting course, go after his dream! Hope he does.

- I, on the other had, have had little time or space to paint. Oooops.

Excuses, excuses!
