If you promess to let it grow...

I felt kind of bad recently, empty I should say - not depressed. It is like nothing is going on while the time is passing so fast. It feels like something needs to happen, soon. Something exciting and entertaining. Or something dramatic, that's gonna put rush in my life. I am tired of just getting up in the morning, go to the library and read, get in town and not even be able to buy a new hat because I don't have a single kron, getting home to do nothing interesting but facing the strange atmosphere which is in the house (and that I guess I mainly contribute to spread around here) and sleep. But shit, i am stuck with my studies, I am stuck because I have to be extra careful with the money (i can't even fill my car with gas), and so the probability for me to get something original is minimized. I guess that what was happiness recently is just getting into routine, maybe because it was not happiness but just a relief (I quote Qiao here...)

The new Bloc Party's album, 'A weekend in the city', will finally be released on february the 5th of 2007. To know everything you have to know about the creation of this album and its content, a very nice description is available on blocparty.net. The link...

In school, we made a paly role all afternoon long, trying to recreate the negotiations that are going on in Nairobi right now - negotiations about the post Kyoto protocol. We had a chair, two secretaries, the OPEC countries -countries who has oil, AOSIS -pacific islands countries, EU, G77 - developing countries, USA, CAN which is an NGO, and IPCC which is the official resources provider. Everyone came with its own objectives and concerns. After exposing our point of views, we had a kind of break to create agreements and coalitions. We finally had a last talk and try to write a report. I was playing United States for this session, and it's been kind of hard to justify our position without telling "yeah, we fuck you all". It was very interesting to try to negotiate with China especially. By the end, we had no real agreement, but it showed us that those kind of negotiations are fucking hard to conduce because of the different interests, and also that unfortunately, environnement depends totally on economical stakes.

Tonite, dinner at Qiao's place with Summer: Tagliatelles and Carbonara Sauce, Water-melon and Kinder (the ones with the surprise inside, they didn't know it), political talks and dirty thoughts... That was cool.
