the dark side of books

there are two things that i really dispise. with a passion when it comes to books. firstly
1) when you find a new series of books and then u take it from the library, get it home and realise that it is actually the second in the series and becasue of this you have missed out a huge whole section which means you can't really finsh this book you have a you don't really know whats going on.
there are some exceptions to this for example philip pullmans the subtle knife. i believe this to be a superior book than northern lights. i did read the subtle knife first abd don't feel ireally missed out.
also a book i have just finished reading, a series about vampires by whitley strieber. his seond book the last vampire is in my opinion superior to his first novel and again i read the second one first.

another thing annoying with this is when there is no list of the series at the front or back of the book. this means you cannot find out what the first title of the series is called, what the next one is and where the book you have just picked up is in thew cronology of the series!!!!!!!!

2) then there is no continuity. as i mentioned in the vampire books i have just finished reading. (and this infuriates me). the author is changing what happened. there are three books in the series and one book will say that the mother died in childbirth and then the next book claims that she was burnt at the stake! also what really annoys me is that when caracters are recalling things that happend in a past book they remember it wrong and completly twist what happen out of context so that the hero is turnedto evil villan and visa versa.

if the author wanted these books to be viewed as stand alone book then he shuoldn't have used the same characters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



*deep brathe*

as a result i cnnot read the last book of the vampire series as this will get on my nerves.

interviewy fun!

MUSHROOMS ARE GOD!



woot i love mushrooms. my date with ant was fantastic and dreamy and wonderful we went to bella italia in croydon and the food was AMAZING! i had a glass of wine at the start of my meal and (my excuse) bwas lack of food beofre hand meant i was feeling slightly lightheaded in a good way. i slept well that night.. my interview 4 mcp went terrible! they threw in random questions like what irritates you? and what make u exstatic? now with preparation u can answer these but i didn't have prep so i just went "......smokers....sorry did u want something to do with art?" then i made up some bollox about little things making me happy and i was happy as long as other people were happy. (wtf remember this is in an art interview so complete irrelevant) and i don't think my protfolio was good enough either. so i went home and moped a bit and my parents were very kind of "oh dear" etc



BUT!!



iu came into college this morning and my tutor took me aside and said..."lets talk in my office" (insert feeling of subdued despair) (i had had a day to kind of numb myself) and she asked how i thought it went, to which i thought i'd head her off at the post so she didn't have to 'break' it to me. so i said "i didn't get in, at least i don't think i did", to which she said no you did get in......WHAT!!!!"!!"!!!!! holy mofo! so i kinda squealed a bit it was all very strange but apparently everyone thought their interview went terrible so woot!



but now ants going to say i told u so as he thought i was over reacting and i had really got in.



i haven't found out about ceramics yet but will this afternoon.



still when i thought i wasn't going to go camberwell i started looknig at other options and so i have to really think if i want to go there i think i do but i'll have a big think.
