uni,presentations..song lyrics?

2001-10-19 - 12:06 a.m.

i haven't written for a full week!god...

Uni's been ok this week..just uni really,tomorrow's friday,which is good..we still get to have our friday's every second week...the other fridays will be broken up by Levi having to go to lecture right in the middle of the day..but every second week is better than none :)

Tomorrow we get the whole day together but we have to go get a present for J,cos it's his birthday..so we won't be able to spend all day snuggled up together..but i'm sure we'll still find some time for that before we go into town.

Then tomorrow night J has invited loads of people out for dinner..so i'm hoping that i'll definitely have the night off so i can go.I'd like to be the person being served on a Friday night rather than the one serving!

I had to do a presentation in my English Literature tutorial today, on Alice Munro's short stories and the ideologies contained....sounds like fun doesn't it?!Anyway i was doing the presentation with 2 other girls..we'd only had one meeting though to discuss it and we'd basically decided to take one strand of ideology each..mine was ideology and relationships...at our meeting i probably said the least of the 3 of us,so they probably thought i'd be really shit at it....to be honest i thought i'd be really shit at it.I'm usually ok doing presentations and speeches..i used to do public speaking at school..won a couple of competitions here and there..but with those i usually got to choose the subject matter..with this it was set for me and i really don't have a clue about the term ideology at all.

I must've done alright though cos at the end of my 7 or so minutes the tutor (who is very Irish and very camp..and really pretty cool for a tutor actually) just looked at me and the turned to the group and said "well...will i say wow or will one of you?!"

I was totally shocked at that! he'd been looking at me and listening carefully to everything i was saying the whole time..but that kinda way where you don't know if he thinks it's really good or really bad.I'm glad it was the first one. He managed to come up with a couple of really hard questions for me to answer though..but i think i managed..bluffing is my speciality!

He said at the end when he was just talking to me that i only had to mention one or two other things and it would have been perfect..he still said it was 1st class though.

As a result of that presentation i ended up being voted by the rest of the group as the group rep. for staff/ student meetings! I have no idea what that entails...but hey..i've never been voted a rep or even class captain or anything when i was at school..i went for the post of head-girl in 6th year,but i didn't get it..so this is pretty cool for me :)

I had solid classes from 12 till 5 today..i would usually have a 10 am lecture as well..but i managed to avoid that one this week by going to the one that was on yesterday.solid classes means no lunch break..so i was eating whilst running to and from lectures and tutorials.Being late for almost every one.It also means that all my tutorials are on Thursdays,so any work to be handed in all has to be done for the same day.It ALSO means that almost half of my classes are now on a Thursday.What can i say? i just better not ever get ill on a Thursday!

Tonight i went up to Levi's for a few hours...her dad was out.We just lay in bed together,talking,laughing,saying nothing,listening to music.It reminded me a bit of back when we used to be just friends..although then we would have had considerably more clothes on and would have been sitting on top of the bed not lying in it.

The other day i was sitting on her bed and she was out of the room and i got,momentarily, that feeling that i used to have back when we were getting to know each other and i had only been at her house a few times.

We would sit on her bed and talk,listening to Semisonic.They were magic times for me.I'd found someone i could just sit and talk to about everything and anything...or sometimes we would just listen to the music..or laugh hysterically at practically nothing.I can't describe how i felt.as i got to know her better..and there i was sitting in her room with her.Best of friends.It's the music that i remember best though.The music seemed to speak to me as we sat there.I have that cd now..i went on about it so much at the time that soneone finally got it for me for my birthday.

Start off with Closing Time...#i know who i want to take me home# then onto Singing In My Sleep..#Now i'm falling in love too fast with you or the songs you chose#..every song had something to say..i know this might be boring for a lot of you..but everything really meant something....each song ahd a line that i remember

#I believe you know me well,i react like you're ringing a bell#

#so save me,i'm waiting,i'm needing ,hear me pleading#

#how like you to make me want to stay forever here behind your door#

#i want to give you something priceless and free#

#then you tell yourself what you want to hear cos you have to believe#

#come on make it easy now or tears may fall#

#tore my heart our from my chest,mixed it up with my mind and the best freshest peices of my soul#

#what she hopes she will find,tonight ,tonight#

#there's nowhere she could sit besides the bed#

A lyric from each song....i've never even told levi about this before. Those songs they're all special..and those times..impossible to forget. We've always been about lyrics,me and Levi..every song is 'ours' in some way in a way,song lyrics started our relationship...but that's a whole other entry
