About Me

I'm captain stability. I really am. You probably recognize me from my comic strip.
[I am Murray, yes.]
I don't always talk that much. I might walk right past you. I do that, I walk.
Only Nick can say "lol" in my presence. I'd disown anyone else. We sometimes play trivial pursuit at break.
I love almost as much music as I hate, and I hate a bunch of music.
My profile has far too much stuff. Tell me what you don't like and I'll probably delete it. Except the anor-sexy-a one. That's just too precious.
I'm a grammar nazi and I'll correct your spelling. Don't add me if you don't know the difference between "your" and "you're". If you've ever spelt "I'm", "ime" I don't ever want to speak to you.
Don't send me glitter graphics. You know who you are.
I'll like you if you tell me something cool, or tell me I'm cool. But if you did them both at the same time you may acquire legend status. That'd probably help you sometime in the future.
I'm maxi's most important friend. You guys can fight amongst yourselves to be second most important. She gave me a muffin this one time. Metaphorically.
Oh yeah, and get firefox . Everything looks lame on your crumby browser.
And yeah, If you read something - leave a comment. It's only decent. (I'm pretty pathetic and need the affirmation)
.

My Interests

writing; people who like me; people who are like me; the way i shave bunny rabbits with my pink toothbrush; the way I am pointless; my protest against productivity; the way I include the one I love in a thing like this even though that time has passed; the way I have no rational ambition; how irrationally ambitious I am; things important; things both meaningless and silly; the fight for the underdog; to debate matters of principle till i win or lose and then say sorry for being stupid (hypothetically).

I plan to study journalism at Rhodes. Four years to get the bachelor of Journalism. Wow. Deep commitment there, anyone going to be in Grahamstown anytime soon?

I'd like to meet:

I want to meet someone rational and concise.

Music:

I like music. My tastes vary incredibly [amongst things "alternative"] . I enjoy my punk (old school/new school/street). I like Indie. I love electro & trance, thoughtful stuff. I like funky music, when I say funky I in no way mean hip. I hate hip, except hiphop which I quite enjoy. I have a low tolerance for R&B. Give me some jazz.

fear and loathing in las vegas,
The Fountain,
Lady in the Water,

It's pretty tough being introverted.

Most people just don't get the idea that it's more interesting on the inside. It's tough though, because you can't live purely on the inside. You need contact with the outside world. Or if you don't n...

It's funny how the smaller can be the more significant, isn't it?

It's funny how something little can set you off; Or set you not off. When you're out of contact you can get all uppity - or downidy - over a simple position.But none of that. I'm at Alice's house righ...

I had this book that I wrote all these things in; kind of like a journal.

I found this book that I used to write in. It was under all these papers I was looking through. I got interested and started reading it all. It's from more than six months ago. It's cool to remember w...

The wine you drink is made of grapes, the world you wander is full of apes.

I'm sitting around, waiting for maxine to visit. She's coming at around four and I'm already making the noodles. She's in school now. Doing some learning I assume. We don't talk about that, though. Sh...

Some things I think are great.

I don't usually do this. In fact, I never have. Yet, these are some brilliant lyrics that I wish I had written myself. Read them If you want. If you're lucky you can listen at the same time. And don't...

Jesus Fucking Christ I'm going insane

For about the last half an hour I've been pacing up and down my room, up and down the garden, and then in circles and then some more pacing. Now I'm sitting down and my right leg won't stop shaking. ...

A story of love and hate, of pecans and engelberries

Ok, so I'm meant to be doing this really pressing assignment so I suppose it's the perfect time to tell you a story about this really crazy thing that happened today. Well I was on my way home from t...

Pretty excited, eh?

I just got back from school and I'm buzzing like a cherry blossom halfway up a lavender bush. I got the talk as I expected. I got all of that. I found out I'm going to have to raise R5000 by 2008.But ...

A full circle.

It's about 10 minutes before I get up from this godforsaken spot. The basic reason is that at 15:00 I have a meeting with my principal. I'm assuming that it's then that I will discover my fate. I supp...
