Wow this album is amazing, I was going to try and not download it but after reading everybody's reviews about all the songs I gave in.

I love City of Blinding ligts, Original of the species, miracle drug... they are all so good.

So much U2-ness going on right now its great!!!

And VERTIGO is out Tomorrow!!! Makes Monday a better day!

So it was 16th October (a day before my 21st birthday) and that morning I found out that U2 were playing at CD:UK - Riverside Studios in London. I thought that this may be my chance to catch a glimpse of U2 even from a distance.

I got to the studio at about 11.30am, met a few other U2 fans along the way, who lucky for them had tickets. I was really jealous and did try and see if I could be let in but they were already over booked anyway and not all people with tickets would be able...

Locked my journal for a good few months as I couldn't be bothered to write anything in here...probably because I was just fed up with exams and stuff....

So update to where I am now! Im on my year work placement working in the Quality Control department for a Brewery in Kent 'Shepherd Neame' - Its pretty cool, Hard work getting up early and doing it 5 days a week but at least im getting experience and most importantly cash for going to loads of gigs!

Anyway an even...

It's just so boring! And I don't know if the stuff is going in my head Got an Organisational Behaviour exam Monday at 2pm...

can't wait till Monday night

Bought the new Snow Patrol album yesterday. Its great. I love it. probably wasn't the best of timing though - distraction from my revision. oh well.

I'll be seeing Damien in Brixton on 21st Feb!! O I LOVE HIM!!!

Can't wait!!!

Damn it!

Coldplay DVD
U2 DVD
Tori Amos Greatets Hits

There's too much good stuff out at the moment! But I must not spend anymore of my student loan on music...
I'm sure I can do it!

I Love Slane DVD so much!!!!

Well I locked my journal for a while cos I moved back to Uni and never had the time or could be bothered to write about stuff...

But This is U2 related and I'm excited about winning the tickets. Can't wait till tomorrow!

U2 on the Big Screen!!!

This is a good way to end the crappy day I've had as well cos It took over 4hrs to get the train back when it was only supposed to take 1hr45mins from uni, plus I wasnt even planing on coming...

So we went out Saturday night for Rae's B Day and I go and lose my mobile phone in the pub! I weren't really that bothered cos it's quite a 'brick' but then I thought about all the numbers I had ONLY stored in my mobile and nowhere else.

But luckily some guy found it and called my friend who was in my address book and left it behind the bar!!! I have to make a list ON PAPER of all my numbers, incase I do ever lose my mobile again!

Lucky to get it back though!!!...

This old town don't smell to pretty and
I can feel the warning signs running around my mind.

So what do you say
You can't give me the dreams that are mine anyway
Half The World Away
Half The World Away
Half The World Away
I've been lost I've been found but I don't feel down.

...........................

Not long till I move back to Uni...29th September...I can't wait! I'm losing my mind here!

...in my dream last night...

It's cos I listened to their Earls Court concert yesterday!

Jen's coming round later and we are going to make a best of Radiohead CD...haven't decided whats going on it yet...she only really knows Creep and Karma Police so she's got a lot of listening to do...I've already converted her into a U2, Coldplay and Sting fan, so Radiohead are next on the list!

Babysat the kids again last night. I love them dearly but i don't think I ever want children.

Looking forward to seeing Lou tonight to hear about her holiday!...

Well you wonder why I always dress in black
Why you never see bright colors on my back
And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone
Well there's a reason for the things that I have on
I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down
Livin' in the hopeless hungry side of town
I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime
But is there because he's a victim of the times
I wear the black for those who've never read
...

Babysat my 2 cousins in the evening. They make me laugh. Andrew was playing this playstation game where you drive the car around and have to do different jobs, instead he was running people over.

Can't believe how much Mary has grown though, I still think of her as six and now she's at my old secondary school. I helped her practice her french homework

Oh to be back at school!!!...

When Me Jenny and Vicky were on the train back from Brighton a while back we met a Man who was juggling, he was very inspiring and had a little book full of stories and poems...he read us this story by one of his favourite authors...the way he read it made the story funny and alive. We never knew his name:

The Hug

My first floor flat is directly opposite a vegetarian restaurant, Willow, which serves fine food all year round. What follows is a true story and happened...
