I have a craving for LiveJournal today. For the first time in a long time. I dont know if this is good or bad.
Kate Haley is an indie fool. Kate Haley is happy she got a bursary. Kate Haley Loves Juno. Kate Haley : Money + Music = Happy Kate. Kate Haley can't wait for CD's to be obsolete. Kate Haley is covered in tomato Soup. Kate Haley loves Soup and Bagels. Kate Haley...
Facebook status' is how we define our mood now? Glad they got rid of the permanant 'is', but everyone still uses it unless they try extra hard to think of self descriptive words. The whole refering to yourself in third person is still creepy.
I got a bursary today, £750 bamm into my account, which i dont have to pay back! Awesome. So to celebrate i went out and spent £50 on CD's
Juno [Soundtrack] Belle&Sebastian The Shins Of Montreal OK GO
In a very indie mood right now, probably caused the spout of LiveJournalism.
Oh, and I bought the one copy of DAZED&confused they stock in premier oppisite my halls, just to complete it all.
I saw Juno yesterday, and it was an amazing love story, and the soundtrack is awesomely amazing. Its just the sweetest Love Song Mix Tape you could make, however cool and pretentionsly indie you are. (ps. i know how ironic this is)
This morning I walked to uni with my boyfriend, we had breakfast and dramatically kissed goodbye, they way we do whenever we meet or part. I like it, although yes it does gross me out when ever anyone else does it. Sure, we hve established im a complete hipocrite. One that can't spell too.
The on to my seminar, we were condisendingly taught dreamweaver, again. And set a group project for next week, should be piss. Piss easy, thats what we like with this module.
The other module is alot harder, and im working, or not-so-working with idiot girls. Oh well.
I have to wash my hair, and shave my legs before my boyfriend picks me up.
So. Go watch Juno, get the soundtrack, and eat soup. Tomato and Basil Soup, with a bagel, followed by those scruptious Go Ahead Yogurt bars. Tasty Luncheon.

| One year on: The time i never talk about, but always think about. |
[Dec. 5th, 2007|10:53 am] |
| [ | mood |
| | relieved | ] | Tuesday was one year on from when i travelled to the phillippines with my friend Sophie. It was an experience i knew would change my life, but not quite in the way it did. I thought it would be a very positive experience in my life, when infact it wasnt. It shattered my spirit, my soul and i forgot how to be me. I was out there for a month over chirstmas and new years. My time out there was spent following a catholic missionary from the south wealthy part of the country to the north even more poverty stricken, mountainus reigion of the country. We met some amazing people, and saw alot of poverty and saddness, curruption and wrongness i didnt expect to see, and wasnt ready, mentaly to see. I also did something wrong, and i dont know why i did it. I was unaware of the extreme consequences my actions would incurr. When i was in the phillippines, i felt i wasnt myself. This maybe because i was in a place so removed from my usual surroundings i didnt know who to be. I always thought i was pretty strong on who i was, but when i went there i clearly wasnt. The woman we were there with, Nickie, also didnt help matters for me. As our closest link to home, and the closest thing i had to a mother, i think i relied on her to much to tell me what to do, when i should of been independent, because we wasnt nice to me. I felt put down by her, and ridiculed for who i was. She didnt seem to like me in the slightest, and would always bring things up, like my religion being Christia, Church of England, and my dad being a priest. I dont know if this was just a joke, but it was really spitefull, and hurt me alot. Im not sure if she was aware of how much she was acting like a child. I also wonder if the "rebel" inside of me had come out. I have alwas been so good, i never got in trouble, i never did anything very naughty, i didnt break the law, i was a bit of a goodytwoshoes. I still am i guess. But looking bad, what i did wouldnt of been THAT bad here. Where i love, in my culture... infact no one would of blinked an eyelid. And thats what affected me so much. I couldnt handel and i couldnt understand the culture out there. I shouldnt of even got involded and i know that now, and if i could change it all i would. I often debate wether if i couldnt turn back time with the knowledge i have now, if i should of even gone. I think i would go. but do alot of things differently. I wouldnt of lost my best friends, and i wouldnt of got involded with someone i shouldnt, because i hurt alot more important people than me, and alot more people than i ever intended. Its a mistake which cost me dearly. A mistake that pretty much ruined the past year of my life. A year which i will never get back. I was so depressed after i got back to england, i couldnt eat for a while. I cried myself to sleep every night for a good few months. I lost contact with my best friend, which i will always regret, and i will never forgive myself, and never forget what happened out in the Phillippines.
It affected me so much, i dont know who i am anymore. Im still quite depressed, even though you wouldnt think it with the facade i put on to cover my true feelings. I cant talk about my feelings with out crying, and i cant let anyone in anymore. I used to be quite an open book, and i am still with the things that dont matter but with the things that do, i cant talk about. This is the first time i have spoken about them. I had a little converstion with Will, my flat mate. I think i just scared him. But he was there for me. I wish i could make close friends, because i dont feel i have any, and that is one of my main regrets in life.
One year on i have come to terms with my actions and what happened in the Phillippines. I have learnt to look at the positive things i experienced out there, and look at all the good, fun things i did rather than focus on the one bad thing which ruined it all. I am getting better at making friends, getting less depressed and everything as time goes on. I am moving on with my life, and its moving fast. I have been trying to move on from december last year for thish whole year. Maybe today, on this landmark, around the same time last year as i was setting foot in Manilia airport, i can.

Im surprised I haven't been on here more, writing my self-loathing, self-hatrid comments, seeing as i have been so self obsessed the past... 6 months. I think I have finally realised whats the problem with me right now. I haven't been able to be myself, let the real Kate out. I think what happened in the philippines made me so self concious, and self aware, i was scared stiff about what other people now think of me, every little thing, i feel people are judging me, like they actually care. So i stopped doing everything. So I wouldnt be judged. I have become so self aware, and self concious, self loathing, i have no self esteem, broken in to bits. Hiding away from the world, in my shell, a complete intovert, when before, i considered myself to be extravert.
Im an extravert hiding by the sheid of an introvert!
I need to stop this.
So from now on i am going to do my best to come out of the shell. Do what i like, how i like, say what i want, how i want. Because i have had a few glimpes like that, how i was, and they have been the best few moments of the past 6 months, and i can probably count them on one hand.
So here i pledge to myself, to stop caring about how other people see me, GET OVER MYSELF, and get on with it.
Because there is no point being misrable. I dont like it.
This is so much easier said than done. My I will give it a shot.
