i did quite a few things today

1. went to j&j's bible study. (j&j=jacky and john's) haha.

2. after that, i finally decided i probably should go to the doctor. i think because i'm pretty certain i need antibiotics, i finally went. also, i don't know if it was intentional, because if it was that's so dodgy. the pharmacy i went to didn't give me my repeats. i don't know if that was accidental, because if it wasn't that means i have to go back to that particular pharmacy to get my repeat if i need it. that's so dodgy.

3. ice cream. so whilst me and jacky were wandering the city, we decided we wanted icecream. & jacky had these vouchers for this new place on bourke st, passionflower. and so we were being naughty and decided to use the 2 for 1 voucher instead of the 50% off voucher. and got like a plate of strawberry chocolate pancakes and one of waffles with chocolate icecream. and the servings were HUGE. i felt like a pig. haha.

4. cd sale. so borders i think were trying to clear all their cds for some reason. it was all cds for $10 or 4 for $30. i was a bit annoyed i didn't have more money, because it meant i had to carefully select 4 only, because i could pretty much only use $30. sigh. i so could have spent more than that if i had more money. i bought mostly cds that i should already have and are completely my collection.

i bought:

-bat for lashes - fur & gold

-ladyhawke - ladyhawke

- jack johnson - brushfire fairy tales

- jack johnson - sleep through static

5. after that. at night i had leaders meeting for church and we spent quite a long time to figure out new names for the new service/group. ideas?

un-likely

a singer/band/musician that i have been listening to lately
is Lykke Li
i presume it is pronounced 'likely'
i discovered her on my recommendations on last.fm
saying her similar artists were Ladyhawke & Whitest Boy Alive
but, no
not really.
she's alright though.
i can sort of see where the are coming from with ladyhawke
but unlike ladyhawke the beats she uses aren't like 'doof doof'
or in other words hard hitting electronically generated beats
i mean she has them, but they aren't hard hitting
& she uses more exotic instruments
i think
her song Little Bit and Dance Dance Dance has a slight Jamaican feel about it
though it is slight
and shes a lot softer, in terms of singing
her singing reminds me of this French singer, Soko
sort of.

another singer, which seems to have a lot of hype around her
she's more similar to ladyhawke
is Little Boots
but for me, she's a little undewhelming
she doesn't live up to the hype
the songs that i have heard from her are quite unoriginal
like they've been before
though i'll give her credit for being an awesome DJ

& one last thing
i really love all the covers done by the Kooks
maybe just because i really like the Kooks
but yes.
i've heard them cover Crazy - Gnarls Barkley
Violent Hill - Coldplay
& also Kids -MGMT
and i really like the covers

so yes.
what i'm loving & not loving
at the moment.

lotsoflove♥
