Welcome to my purple world...

Back

So the other day I managed to produce what looks like a story. (I got rid of it after realising how flat the characters are.) In that story, two girls go to a cafe for coffee before one of them leaves to the airport to go to England. Suddenly, one of the girls hears "Take 5" playing in the background and tells her friend about it. Just a simple story with no plot. When I went to see Yasmin on Friday, it actually happened! We weren't sitting in a cafe, but when we were walking I suddenly heard "Take 5". Yasmin is also leaving to England. News presenter's voice: coincidence? I think not.
On my way to Montenegro I finished reading "Nothing to Envy". I don't have much to say about it, apart from the fact that it's great! If I were to compare it to "Escape from Camp 14", another book I read on North Korea, "Nothing to Envy" is a lot better. A great thing about it is that as much as it talks about the regime, it isn't bias against any government system, equally criticising both the North Korean and the Western way of life. Coincidentally, as I was reading about Mrs Song's husband, who was a journalist who literally rewrote the news, I was listening to "The Resistance" by Muse. Such dystopia. Very 1984. Wow. 
Started learning economics today. Well, trying my best to. No way I'm taking history of arts next year! 
The scenery is so distracting!!! 
I described this "paysage" for my French class over 1000 times xD
