Just a short update on what's been happening in the wonderful world of tim. I was in London last week for a postgrad interview. It went well and I came down the stairs this morning to find an envelope with an unconditional offer. So,I might well be in London next yr which would be incredible. Don't want to say too much cos nothing's finalised..but I'll let u guys know when it is. I hung out with Neelesh and his mates, drinking silly amounts and listening to a plethora of strange music, ranging from commercial rnb to quality indie. Got to see some people I'd been dying to see for ages and got to meet some new,cool folk (this is a shout out to NIMA).....I was glad I got to engage in some serious chat with neelesh(and share a tiny single bed with him, resulting in a severe lack of sleep due to my inability to sleep as straight as a stick...his sacrifice was very much appreciated though, the floor would have been worse)...anyhow, the future seems that tiny bit much brighter and clearer with this offer from Goldsmiths...now, to convince my parents about the merits of wanting to work with moving images....hahahahahahahah!
Apart from that, my return to st andrews has been ok so far..the weather's been temperamental as always but being back here's made me realise how much I love this place and how much I'm going to miss it no matter where I'm at next yr. I got my dissertation printed and bound today (big hugs and thanks to Gina for her help and patience, she's been a star!)....I hand it in tomorrow and it's going to be such a relief letting go of this academic project which has consumed me the past few months!
Tonight, is whiskey-tasting followed by sushi at Vena's...I can't wait...sushi and whiskey? Oh yes, please!!

Poem of the Day:

The Daily Struggle


Feels like the walls are closing in,
On my grin.
Can't keep smiling like this,
It just feels so fake.
What's the point in affecting an emotion I've forgotten how to feel?
My tears could fill a lake.
Thoughts of you,
Thoughts of us.
The thought of you with another.
It's just so hard to take,
When you only think of me as a brother.
