  BARBADAKIA Volume 2 Post 1




Welcome back...

I wish some people didn't read this blog in fact I hope they won't. And then there are so many others whom I want them to read it. But we can't have it all...

Tonight I felt the need to resurrect this place, ironically enough. I still don't know in what language to write but I do write in Mourga in Greek so I might as well mix it up a little here. I do have ANOTHER blog but it's for other things.

So...you know when you meet someone and it is just so weirdly interesting? When your instincts say YES! and that person inspires you? It happened to me recently. I met a person and I just so want to learn more about them from them. They seem fascinating. And before you say anything, it's not necessarily a love interest. But it's like this person tapped into my brain and my soul. Almost cos I hardly know them but...

So I am thinking about my practice. I am realising day by day that I am just so scared yet I have this growing need to do my work! Am I an artist or am I not? As time passes I am not sure. But i have decided to follow my dream and fly into the unknown. I just hope inspirations comes soon because I will explode.

Shit...It's 4 am...Where does time go? I seem to never have time. For once I understand what a person I knew meant by saying he run out of time. I run out of time all the time. I seem to not have time to read anymore which is SO ANNOYING.

I have to get up at 7:30 tomorrow. Ugh...When will this end? Working over Easter was more fun than I had anticipated and let's just say that I feel rather joyous. Now I just need to be patient.

Smack that...

Happy Birthday Babis
Happy Birthday Mourga

(there's a fucking fly in here it followed me from the living room it must DIE!)

  the art of taking decisions you can take your effing house and stick it where the sun doesn't shine, see if I care!...

all I can say is: I am so unbelievably scared...  ¶ 12:02 AM 7 comments

  possibilities could it be? have I found a new home? yes, i might have. now all that remains is the bit where you pay money to check if you are ok and then if ok you rent...so, today i saw thee bootiful house that i fell in love with. all great apart from the one wee bedroom but i don't care cos it's YUMMY!!!friends do cross fingers and toes and anything else available so that thos estate people allow me to rent the bootiful house...(700 deposit...heart attack...but long story altogether...)...here you can take a peek at the bootiful house (minus the furniture). Oh, and I have 5 words for you:slate floor in the kitchen...  ¶ 6:48 PM 0 comments

  Cos I'm Bored... As the song says...
It's the day before Good Friday here. I don't know how it's called. In Greece we have the Great week before Easter Sunday so ehach day is Great Monday, Great Tuesday etc...Might translate as Good Monday etc...You get my point unless you have a pea for a brain, at which point I guess everything is green for you and that makes you happy...I see...
Yeah so it;s REALLY quiet here, and we don't have much to do so we draw all sorts of Easter stuff on the notice board as Janice noticed it was too white and empty. I drew a little bee which apparently is Ervin in a stripy jumper. What else? I have one job to do and I have been milking it all day so it will last until 5pm.

The house hunting business is just wearing me down. I have indeed found the house of my dreams but, alas, I need one more person-it's for 3. ELENIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!Just get your butt here woman and rent with us I BEG YOU!!!It's just THE SINGLE MOST ADORABLE HOUSE EVER...everything else I have seen is shitier than the other. And the one place that is decent doesn't have a bathtub only a shower cubicle. I guess I will have to live with that. The good thing is that Easter holidays are on which means that no-one can snatch the place until next Tuesday so it will give me plenty of time to decide on the matter.

Lately I have been listening to the new Belle and Sebastian album. I know I have talked about it before but I just can't get over the fact that this album is so amazing. I am addicted to it. They were on the radio the other day with Mark Lamarr and I think he was being rather obnoxious with them calling them "twee" and all that. What's wrong with "twee" mister?EH? I feel so lucky to have managed to follow their career closely. It's so nice to be part of the time that the music of one of your favourite bands is developing. I kind of stopped looking closely for sometime-something I regret-but I am now following them again. I really want to see them live again.

Please listen to their album, The Life Pursuit...It's the best. You see, what I would like is to find a nice little house with a little garden so on sunny days I can have my coffee out there listening to B&S. That's what i REALLY want...Is it SO hard??????  ¶ 12:58 PM 0 comments

  Manouali PERCOLATOR! Το βρήκα!!!!έτσι το λένε το ρημάδι...ναι λοιπόν, γύρισα μέσα στα νεύρα σπίτι για να καταλήξω να σπάσω την καφετιέρα-slash-percolator η οποία δεν είναι και δική μου, έ...αλλά έτσι είναι αυτά. Σιχαίνομαι απίστευτα να σφουγγαρίζς εδω πέρα και είναι κάτι που αφήνω στον Shane διοτί εμείς εδώ δεν έχουμε μπαλκόνια να βγείς να βάλεις νεράκι στη βρυσούλα, να σφουγγαρίσεις και μετά να καθαρίσεις και τα συμπράγκαλα με καθαρό νεράκι και πρέπει να τα κάνεις όλα αυτά στη μπανιέρα (ι-ου) και μετά να τρίψεις τη μπανιέρα για να καθαριστούν όλα. ΝΑΙ ΚΑΛΑ! στη φάση που είμα εγώ τώρα δεν συμβαίνουν τέτοια πράγματα έλα όμως που έπρεπε για΄τι είχε όλο το πάτωμα καφέ! Και τώρα πνίγω τον π'ονο μου με κράκερς, μπρί και μαρμελάδα φράουλα...μμμμμ....αυτά είναι....  ¶ 5:40 PM 0 comments
