Pissed off, to tell you the truth.
I bought a chicken on Wensday and today is the last day it's alright for. Now, I don't think anything bad of chucking away 90% of a take- away, I've done that twice this week. For some reason, I really resent throwing away most of a £4 chicken, there is something so wasteful about it, but I'd throw away away most of a take away quite a bit, and not care. I guess I could butcher a lot of it and have some of it tonight and some of it tomorow, but them tomorow I'll have to go and buy a new one.

I donno what to do, I think I might bin it and buy a new one tonight, start from scratch, then I'll butcher it and have proper chicken for the next few days 'till pay day.

I donno, I'm not going anywhere except my mini tesco for the shopping.
I'm gonna go there now and gets bits for my amazing award winning chicken sandwiches, I've decided I'm going to throw away the current chicken and buy a new one that I can butcher today and cook every day this week 'till pay day.

The music is an accousistic version of The Calling's "Whereever you will go" by some lady.
The styling is like that of an oil painting of a women on a boat going through stormy seas where the waves turn into watery birds that lift her above the crashing waves, eventually when the water calms she falls down and the waves turn into fish until she reaches a shoreline where she sees herself waiting on the shore with a cup of tea.

I reckon I could write one of those thesises on it.
The way it appeals to the romantic side in most people, showing that through both the personal storms and normal times, you can have a cup of tea which will calm things down. The fact that the two women go into 'one' shows that sometimes you don't quite feel yourself. It's really very good, even the fact that the singer isn't pitch-perfect adds to the "That could be me" ness in a lot of the audiances.

Quite a lot, seeing her with a cup of tea at the end when she's normal and calm, when the two girls become one, portrays the message they want to get across; that a good cup of tea can make you feel more calm, relaxed and at-one.
Oh shit, thank's for making me think about it, I'm about to buy tea for the first time in god knows how many years. I occasonally have mint tea that I make myself, but now I want one of those poofy teas.

2/ On the Mortgage slide, give some thought to how you break out the heading that require a hypen after them. Bold? New line? sub heading?

That sort of thing.

on my way home from oxford after having 'popped in for a few hours work'.
'we pay you £40 based on £10/hour, but it'll never take you that long,' they said.
My fat fucking arse it didn't take that long, six hours I was there and I still hadn't fucking finished. They're needed first thing in the morning as well so I'm going to have to get up at the crack of dawn to go in and finish them, all for forty poxy quid. Bastards.

I can't see my self getting involved with someone with out at least a history of mental interestingness, how could they ever understand me, it would feel oddly like paedophilia.
