Weblog | I don't like the word blog, it's ugly. Anyway, new content happens here. (Swedish dito)

About me and the site | Twenty-something male who likes text. Obsessed with things such as books, reality, communication, and one or two tv-shows.

Archives | Things written here since... well, 2001. Some of it is good, some is utter shait.

Books | Books read, not books written. So far I've struggled to maintain unpublished.

Photo | I like my camera and it likes me.

Links | Outwards, away, flee.

The first couple of pages went fast, and they should, as there was nothing on them that was hard to answer. But then the difficulties began. Lots and lots of essay questions, which I usually don’t mind that much but now it was unbearable. All of them were about the Empty Raincoat, and more specifically about the last pages. I didn’t memorise those parts, as they were unbelievable boring.

Now I feel drained, all my thoughts are like a wet puddle on the floor and no sponge nearby. But I won’t complain.

New things are fun. Ola (now and here dubbed to hero of the day) told me that at least some of the record stores probably had Tom Waits new CDs. Uplifted by this --I had started to believe that I wouldn’t pass the exam so I was a bit down at the moment — we went there and sequentially bought them (despite the 7th May date). If I may exclaim a word of rejoicing: hurrah!

Tonight TV4 will show Star Wars Episode I and The Day the Earth Stood Still. I will only watch the later. A real sf-movie from the fifties for once and not one of the many fake ones made for drive-in theatres.
