Standing in line to pay the few pounds for my Hoisin Duck wrap I overheard a group of girls discussing the pros and cons of freezing bread. "I was against it for the longest time! Like it would turn to poison!" I, caught in the midst of this exchange, remark that this is the most extreme bread concern I'd ever heard.
"Well," she replies, "My flatmate is also convinced that if you put a banana peel in the freezer, it will grow into a new banana."

NEWS FLASH
Seems like Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner's in a little hot water these days.
Is it because of his past ties to AIG?
(http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2009/03/18/gop-rep-calls-on-geithner-to-resign-or-be-fired/)
or...
Is it because he's MOLOCH THE MAGNIFICENT!?

Take a look, guys. I know. TERRIFYING. I, like everyone else, thought that Moloch had been iced by Ozymandias, but it seems that now, by some strange twist of fate and a change of identities, he has made his way into the Obama Administration.
Where's Dr. Manhattan when you need him...
Oh yeah. Mars.

Tyrannies of time & space
This term was used today in my Politics and Journalism lecture. Although the conversation was on the function of Vox Pops in the news media, it applies neatly to the situation this week. Wales, land of fog, mystery and VodkaRedbull has become freakishly sunny and wonderful. It's beautiful thing. Flowers are out, the air smells like opportunity and everything's cool.
This is not the week to be stuck inside finishing essays.
The forcast says it's gonna be like this through the weekend. Uh oh...
I'm ready for the country. It's time to go.
Sidenote: Best quote from a recent dream: "You've got a move about you...like Ace Frehly."
My subconscious is awesome.

The one where I steal Donald's format
Week: ?
Kebabs: Way, way too many
When faced with the prospect of sitting in my room for another night working on my papers, I voted no. Kevin had mentioned another "happy hour" with the Canadian Law crew and, having avoided social distraction for a whole week (my guitar is enough to distract me for hours. I can now play a Chris Bell song almost perfectly) I headed down to Royal Orleans.
I t sounds like this is going somewhere, doesn't it? Not so, apart from having a very nice night with good people.
Fun Fact: I ate at a Kebab Shop called The Chicago Bulls about half an hour ago. No shit.
I miss you guys. Keep it real. Play safe.

Sorry, Hannah
...but there's not a whole lot to report about Cardiff this week. I've been spending a lot of time staring at this very screen writing the essays that will allow me to stay here for the rest of the semester. I'll start having adventures again in the next few week. Promise.
Also, drop me a line if you want. I've done some cool stuff, but I don't bother putting it all in here because...ya know...I'm doing things.
The Eastern European transcendentals who give away free hats in Bute Park story is better as a folk tale than recorded fact anyway.

It's always a good idea to tell the people who you love that you love them. It's impossible to know what's going to happen.
