The Wierdest Things Make Me Happy
Had a lovely day on friday. Was just going to go to the job centre and go home but decided it was just too nice to go home. My kind of nice I mean, light like it was early evening rather than noon. I took a bus into the city, got slightly lost finding the Necropolis, eventually found it and spent a couple hours in there. Looking at all the pretty gravestones. Most of its 19th century but cos theres whole families in there I saw stones from 2007. Some very cruel names in there too. Never name a child Christian Flaws. After some time in there I went to the St Mungo Museum of Religious Art which is right outside its gate next to the cathedral. Some interesting stuff but it was a bit small and bare. Not really sure how much of there stuff is real and how much reproductions. Then I walked back towards the river, looking in all the shop windows. Theres some interesting new age shops in that area. Ended up walking to Gorbals and finding a supermarket so I got groceries and a taxi the rest of the way home. Must have walked for miles though – certainly over 5 hours I coverde a lot of area. Think Il go back to the graveyard with a camera and see if I can be a bit more organized this time. Perhaps do some research, get guide books, decide a plan of some kind so I see everything there rather than just wonder round going 'ooh thats pretty'. Was wearing some rather daft shoes for walking. Obviously since I just when into the city on a whim I hadnt planned to wear anything suitable shoes – so there I was in thin black plimsolls. When I was paying attention I could feel the stones through them, luckily I tend to get a bit distracted by graveyards and barely noticed til I got home and realised my feet were in a bit of a state. Well worth it for such a nice day though.
My other big news is that I got a ticket for Marilyn Manson on the 15th december! Can't wait! Shrieked and jumped up and down when the ticket arrived! Im gonna be downstairs standing, unlike last time where I was up in the seats to the side and wasnt allowed to stand up – this time im gonna elbow my way to the front and no big viking is gonna pick me up and put me to the side like at Nightwish! does little dance I'm gonna see Marilyn Manson!!!!!!!!!!
Still not found a job – kinda worried that I dont even seem to be getting many interviews. I mean I'v been applying for jobs in Glasgow for about 6 months now and I'v only gotten two interviews, neither of which even got me into the next stage of the selection process, never mind a job! Applying for colleges to keep my sanity. Education has one more chance, if it fucks me over again I'm going to join a religion or something. Can't apply for most summer-starting courses til january so I'm tapping my fingers impatiently until then. That and watching cartoons – loving Clone High and Drawn Together. Clearly the Family Guy writers are Clone High fans too – they both have very similar Marilyn Manson jokes. It's still funny though. Animation and Marilyn Manson, throw in a pizza and you'v got heaven :)
