Things I'm contemplating:
1) I am finished school, not just for a few weeks, not just for summer holidays, but FINISHED. It's an odd feeling, and I don't think it's fully sunk in just yet. Definitely the nicest thing about it is the utter lack of stress and worry, I keep asking myself "what SHOULD I be doing?" and when the answer comes back as a gentle "nothing" I feel immensely happy. Hopefully a trip up the coast is in order for a couple of weeks time, after the initial wildness of Schoolies has lessened.
2) I really want to start reading some proper "literature with a capital L" as Fay put it. I am starting to feel a little uneducated and ignorant to it, so perhaps today I shall begin.
3) For the last few days/weeks I've been lazing about the house in underwear. C says "I don't believe in pants" and I wholeheartedly agree with her.
4) I have a new obsession;
Charlotte Gainsbourg. She has this amazing plainness to her which makes her look immensely beautiful. And she also reminds me of one of my childhood friends' mothers whom I adored. Also, with pictures as lovely as these, who could fail to fall in love with her?
This love for Charlotte began after watching the Science of Sleep. Lovely lovely lovely movie, do watch it if you haven't already, very odd but amazing all the same. Plus it has Gael Garcia-Bernal in it, another love of mine.Enjoy these summer days
