it's cool that they are playing talk show host!

I'm a bit confused about this definition, as I would say that radiohead and joy division are more in the "I wanna kill myself" category.

I still think James Blunt is the worst, closely followed by Bono

1.Losing My Religion - R.E.M. 2. Starman - David Bowie (video) 3. Runaway - Del Shannon (video) 4. Denis - Blondie (video) 5. Somebody To Love - Jefferson Airplane 6. Make Me Smile (Come Up and See Me) - Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel (video) 7. 96 Tears - ? & The Mysterians (video) 8. Mrs. Robinson - Simon & Garfunkel (video) 9. Gloria/In Excelcis Deo - Patti Smith (video) 10. Wild Horses- The Rolling Stones (video)

that sucks! well, this isn't a proper shortage, it's just suppliers strike which results in a shortage for the consumers. although diesel seems to be fine as apparently truck drivers are also on strike. sometimes I wonder whether Greece is truly a capitalist country...

it definitely was, my boyfriend was surprised that i picked up a sci-fi book (he is a huge scifi fan, I make fun of him) but this was an interesting read

poor fin.... things will get better! food is always good! I think i had high expectation of coming home because I always go out loads. sadly, doesn't seem to be that way this time....

" No one belongs here more that you" by Miranda July. A collection of short stories, some of which was very moving, some not as much. If you enjoyed her film "me you and everyone we know", you will probably enjoy this too. "The day of the triffids" by John Wyndham. Surprisingly good! Many "disaster"-type movies have heavily borroughed from this book, the premise and opening scene o0f which reminded me of "28 days later". I didn't even mind the seemingly stupid concept of the triffids. Definitely reccommended!

well, I've been watching a lot of popular culture-related tv!

I think you will find that people have been self- harming for a very long time now, just didn't advertise it as much as emo kids seem to do, it used to be a private coping mechanism, not a trend. One of SYlvia Plath's poems (I think it's called ten red indians or something) indicates that she self- harmed. And I am assuming you are joking Batman!

Joss Stone was fine until she went to America to record her second album. She came back for the brits last year (I think) wearing a ridiculous dress, with a stupid mid-atlantic accent and was generally quite irritating. She had totally lost all her boho charm! James Blunt should be no 1 though!

ARgh, it's colder in Athens than it was in London, how annoying! I hope the weather gets better

I arrived in AThens last night ready to go out drinking and dancing. Apparently all my friends had run out of petrol because of a strike which started because of the high prices. On monday there is also a taxi driver strike, again brought on by the high prices of petrol. Argh.....

"Vertigo" is definitely one of the best but I think my favourite Hitchcock film is "North by Northwest"! I recently watched a special showing of "the lady vanishes" and it was very interesting as it is very different to all the later HItchcock I've seen.

oui! c'est vraiment bizzare

this afternoon yeah, my last week of freedom and I plan to enjoy it as much as possible, hence the need to go swimming. i hope athens is warmer than madrid edna!

hahaha that's hilarious!

it's staying pretty hot in london too and shockingly, it is hotter than athens! I wanted to go swimming when i go back to athens tonight but it might not be hot enough

great news shawna!

I know a chinese family with the surname ho, it is quite an unfortunate name!

i just bought some books douglas coupland- all families are psychotic john wyndham- the day of the triffids (i'm very curious about this one!) miranda july-no one belongs here more than you vladimir nabokov- lolita

awww that is sooooooo cute! i had a dream last night where i had about 5 dogs to play with and i was so happy! i wish i had a dog.... what sweetens my coffee today is that I just accepted my job offer, i'm so excited! i'm off for a week's holiday and i start the week after that, woo hoo!

I'm seeing her tomorrow, hope it will be good

dunno, I started losing interest when no one was voting what the songs I was nominating! And having being away for ages, I have no idea what has been voted for in the past year or so.
