V-cards
It's all nice and well to be told that hymens are precious and must be saved for loved ones, but when it actually comes down to business don't you want to learn the birds and bees with someone you don't have to see again? Otherwise you'll always be reminded of the awkward moments before finally understanding where all the parts belong.
Maybe I just don't have enough sanctity for monogamous relationships.

By the way in case you were wondering, there are way more seedy men in Melbourne hoping to lure unsuspecting asian girls to live in their rooms free of charge than in London. (I'm pretty sure you were).
I leave you with the only personal add I have ever considered replying...

life-is-okay
Then I read slutever and am reminded that I don't have an Irish book-bitch, cook up ketamine in my London squatter apartment or inspire women all over the world to take their clothes off and write 'slutever' on their chests. Subsequently, for a second I feel regretful of all the nights out I'm clearly missing and the titty/erection emails I don't get and then realise that I like my big queen size bed (usually with sheets), being able to watch tv/use the internet and waking up knowing who I am and where I am and that I could never live without a bed-base or stay on drugs longer than 5 hours.
It's also a cruel reminder that there are people in the world who have bigger problems than me. Don't you hate it when that happens?
therefore:
- send me titty pics
- if i could break into a vet school the first thing i would steal would be k.
- i have dog hairs between my fingers.

Notes, Quotes and Last Night's Dinner
I collectively stare at these sentiments on an average of 37 minutes a day. While I’m eating last night’s dinner for breakfast, while I’m eating more of last night’s dinner for lunch, while I’m snacking, while I’m on the toilet expelling breakfast, lunch and snacks. They bring me wisdom and social and spiritual grounding in times of mental vacancy, spiritual boredom and lack of social interaction.
Notes are taken seriously in my household. Almost every morning when I wake up, Mum will have left me an informative note about where tonight’s dinner is (usually “in the fridge”) or a fun suggestion for things I can do if I get bored (“make dinner”, “clean your bathroom” or “vacuum and mop the entire house.” These suggestions are clearly invaluable to curing my boredom and taken seriously). Mum once had Dad LAMINATE a message that said “Please put dirty dishes in the dishwasher” and kept it on the sink for several weeks.
After surfacing from my room just then, to see if any of last night’s quinoa was left in the fridge, I discovered another pearl of wisdom left next to the sink by dear Adele. This is by far the most insightful and useful message yet.

If I was Harry Potter..
- I would probably penetrate Hermione. She's way hotter and smarter than Ginny, and never went to the Yule ball with Neville. Instead she went with Krum. Who is obviously super-cooler and broods way more.
- I would most likely whinge too much to save the world from Voldermort. Actually, I would probably whinge too much about sleeping under the stairs, and the Dursleys would have left me there. Therefore Hagrid would never have found me, and I would never know the meaning of 'sorting hat', 'potions' or even know how to find Diagon Alley.
In essence I would be left, under the stairs and talking to snakes. Which, if you ask me is a far better state than either a) dead, b) married to Ginny or c) saving the wizarding world from a) the incompetence of the ministry and b) the world's meanest wizard.
Unfortunately I would never have had the opportunity to grind with Ron, thus maintaining sphincter-virgin status. (also arguably a good thing).
Also as if Wizards wouldn't have just discovered guns and saved all their energy? machinegun>avadakedavra.
In addition here are some tid-bits I learned this weekend:
- Don't buy your younger sister shots
- Enya dancemixes are boss
- Don't leave half-full, melted icecream containers on the floor. Otherwise someone WILL lean over to ash in it and in the process empty the contents of the ashtray next to it onto the lounge room carpet.
Auf Wiedersehen,
Evilboy.

a little bit about Sian in dot points
- squeezing pimples
- picking at ingrown hairs
- pissing/shitting with the door open
- looking in the tissue after I've blown my nose
- petty theft (morally gross)
- cleaning the dirt under my toe nails
- having a clean kitchen
- not drinking milk if there's less than half a bottle left
- staying away from the smell/imagined taste of bananas

To The Woman Who Comes Into My Work And Hides Her Hand When Entering Her PIN So I Can't See Which Numbers She Presses And Steal Her Monies,
QueerNation
Draw the Line is a new campaign that seeks to foster dialogues between 'young people' about what is considered to be appropriate for a 'respectful relationship', and what is considered to be 'crossing the line'. Apparently in Australia, we are united as a community "about things that are unacceptable". I don't know about you, but I wouldn't have a clue what we should consider to be 'acceptable' behaviour for a 'respectful relationship'. I don't think I have any 'respectful' relationships.
If the Australian Government wants to inscribe their moral standards upon me, they couldn't have found a more patronising way of doing it. Someone should draw the line at paternalistic campaigns that do little more than censor my sexual behaviour.
Is anyone else peeved that women have come up with this absurd campaign that seeks to define what I am allowed to consider a 'respectful relationship'? What the hell is a respectful relationship?
Seriously considering some bondage action. In drag, gagged and being fucked with a dildo, filming it and sending it to Tanya Plibersek. What would her thoughts on consent be then?
Anyway, I'm off to stalk someone at a place where they're known to visit regularly (home, work, school, social or leisure) and threaten my dog into performing sexual acts.
More gender-love, Evilboy.
Glass half full.
Things I like:
- I actually enjoy hangover days. Spending a day on the couch moaning is like my idea of heaven. I like to set myself up with Dr. Who or Charmed, smoke a joint and forget that I have 2000 words due tomorrow (no lies).
- Recently I have taken pleasure in standing umbrella-less in the rain. A good two-day long Melbourne rain makes for awesome puddles to jump in and a pleasurable come-down.
- Morning smokes. There's nothing better than waking up in the morning (mid-afternoon), making yourself a cup of tea and rolling a smoke.
- Rain in summer and sun in Winter. Uncharacteristic weather is the bomb.
- Fashion Blogs (see The Sartorialist, Sea of Shoes, FaceHunter and one that you might not have read: Bryanboy). The last guy wears socks during sex (ha!).
Things I am good at:
- Withdrawing from subjects after the census date. So far I'm about half-way through my degree and have $9000 of debt, as I freak out mid-semester and decide that it is ALL-TOO-MUCH-TO-BEAR and quit..
- Writing cover-letters. I'm completely useless at resumes, but as soon as I can aggregate a higher word-count concerning myself I kick ass.
- Writing essays about postmodernity and pop-culture. So far I've written about: TaTu (You know, the lesbian video clip that makes your heart flutter), True Blood and Barbie. Expect more on Dr.Who and androgynous fashions.
Peace! Evilboy.

More on Being Gangsta
I once thought I would be a fucking awesome drug dealer/pimp. You know the kind of person I mean - like, when you walk into a club and everyone flocks to you to buy some pills from the little bag that you have sewn into your underpants (having - of course - just come from an international flight of drug-topia)...
Anyway, whilst walking into the trendy-melbourneite-club where girls have bangs and profess polymorphous sexualities, I would immediately pick up and spend the night having screaming intercourse with some tight-jeaned, fringe-and-blazer-clad boy who plays The Smiths on Sunday mornings after fucking to Felling Good (Nina Simone).
Instead, I spend Friday night hoping to pick up with a trendy-lesbian who will forward my social status (so that next time I go to a queer party people won't scoff at me) and Saturday night at a pub where it's cool to scream eighties ballads to the girl on the stage who likes to show off her elle mcpherson underwear.
Anyway, my dog just ate half my maccas burger, I have to go finish the rest.
(Guess who sister-Alex.)

EWEKNEE1101: Choosing Units: Don't Bother With These Ones.
Like most freshers, I was super excited to start university thinking I would become some kind of old-school-70’s hippy, involved in the all the most important protests (I’ve still never been to one) and was beyond motivated to become the Greatest Psychologist Ever; curing the world one case of Depression at a time. I soon learned that uni is a lot like school except you can wear whatever you want, its somewhat acceptable to turn up drunk to tutes and you’ll spend more time eating your body weight in wedges on Oak Lawn (because you can’t be bothered trekking to Broadway even though you’re craving Ararat/Nagano) than learning anything of any real world value.
I was also pretty excited to be doing an Arts degree. I didn't have any compulsory
First Year Philosophy
My tutor looked like Steve Carrell which was very distracting. Unfortunately he wasn’t Steve Carrell and also wasn’t funny. He was a bit of a dick actually and made everyone print out every week’s readings even though they were an average of 75 pages long. The only things I can remember from Philosophy are Plato’s Cave Allegory, Freud is a sexist dick, Sartre is cool and that I’m still not convinced that the mind and the brain are separate entities despite the Philosophy Freak’s (you know, the one who always sits closest to the tutor) best efforts to suggest otherwise. UWA ruined philosophy for me.
Any Anthropology
I don’t understand why anyone would major in anthropology. It’s supposedly the study of cultures and human interactions which sounds pretty awesome to a Psych major, but it really blows. Although, I did write an awesome essay on polygamy. I watched a whole lot of Big Love, got my feminist on and received a High Distinction.
Half way through second year I got fed up with the Dud Arts subjects I’d chosen and was looking forward to the major end of my degree when I would study only Psychology units. But this wasn’t all that great either.
PSYC2217: Cognitive Neuroscience
This unit involved a group project on something that I obviously didn’t learn much about because I can’t remember what it was. Something to do with, ugh, the brain. I was a third year, and I had two second years and third year mature age student in my group. The second years weren’t too bad except that I had to explain simple stats analysis to them and the mature age student was completely useless because she was a mature age student. From the country. The exam contained 20 multiple choice questions from the possible 250 practice questions in the text book. The book was way more complicated than the lecture material and I didn’t have time/the motivation to read and understand all 15 examinable chapters so I printed out the 250 multiple choice questions and memorised the answers. A valuable learning experience.
PSYC3303: Psychological Science in the Modern World: Challenges and Controversies
This should be a first year unit. Carmen Lawrence was the co-ordinator which I was initially really excited about (even made a status update about it!) but I soon realised she is balls. I summarised this unit in my first post.
By far my favourite Complete Waste of Time Unit was:
VISA2218: Art Backwards: Painting into Film
I resent having to eventually pay for this unit. It was about what it means if the back of a painting was featured in a painting. As in, if I’m sitting opposite you and you’re doing a painting so I can see the back of your easel; what does it mean about the painting and about me as the artist, if I paint the back of your easel in my painting. We also spent about half the semester staring at and analysing this painting:
I can’t remember why this one was so important. Something to do with people in the mirror and the man in the doorway at the back. And the back of the painting on the left.
I don’t think the lecturer knew what it meant as he brought up more and more ridiculous theories every week (none of which really made much sense). He also wore t-shirts that had slogans that were way too young for him, with his ginourmous hairy gut hanging out underneath and mispronounced my surname (it’s fucking easy to say/a common food stuff). From what I gathered, it might possibly mean that the artist is gay (but probably not) or it could signify some kind of internal reflection or wank wank whatever. Most likely though, it means that the artist did a painting of someone else doing a painting.

slutitup
So I'm pretty sure that those who identify as WOMAN/WOMIN/WOM*N/GENDERQUEER should reclaim the gaze and become slutty. Here are some steps.
1. You don't have to be inebriated to pick up! Sober, anonymous sex is like asserting yourself as powerful within patriarchal discourse.
2. Sexy eyes are key! For those of you who haven't come across the sexy-eye phenomenon, it is kind of a cross between SMEYES (smile-with-your-eyes. Tyra Banks style) and that look you get when you're alone at the end of the night and need to pick up. Find a way to appropriate this into EVERYDAY of your life.
3. If you can be bothered, try to consider the political ramifications of being 'easy' as opposed to the political golden-stars you'll get when you're a 'S-LUT' and have discovered a practice (promiscuous sex) that reverses the male gaze and forces people to reconsider the consequences of objectification.
** Judith Butler, for those of you who don't know is a post-modern philosopher/theorist who has had a great influence on my life, as well as queer theory.
Gender-peace.

Meet slut-face
Most commonly known as slut-face/whore/sperm-purse. She takes pride in eating shoes, and has slowly infiltrated herself into our household to such an extent that she is no longer even remotely an outdoor dog. We also like to whore her out to neighbourhood mutts for a small fortune.
As you can see I have a rather messy bedroom (which is now dirty-dish-free).
Anyway, if any of you are as lame/occasionally nerdy as me you might read Questionable Content. Please don't judge me, it's a guilty pleasure, but it has also produced this monstrosity.
Adieu!

Even Crazier Cat Lady
Actually thinking about the True Life Crazy Cat Lady Story more recently, I've been finding it more and more depressing than funny. This is likely to be related to the two hour long lectures of psychometric tests and related statistics I've been studying and lack of social interaction with anyone apart from my parents and dog outside of facebook. Listening to Interpol and staring out of my rain streaked window also isn't helping. Anyway, here's the story:
My family friends had an elderly woman living down their street who had an unknown amount of cats. They knew there were a lot and that cardboard barriers had been added to the surrounding fence on the property to prevent the cats from escaping.
When the woman died and paramedics went in to collect her body, fifty two cats were found on the premises. The carpet was sodden with cat faeces and the place absolutely stank. She had a son but he had stopped visiting her several years ago because the house smelled so bad. The authorities think she may have been dead for a couple of days before the body was found, as the cats may have started to eat her due to the scratch and bite marks on her body and face.
Rumour has it that she left the small amount of money she had to a woman who have given her free coupons for cat food at the supermarket.
In late high school I had a life plan that I was going to be the kind of woman who would lounge around her huge, old fashioned, eclectic mansion (much like the house in My Summer of Love) all day wearing a silk dressing gown with a glass of hard liquor in one hand a cigarette in the other (I'd forgotten about this, actually. My seventeen year old self wasn't as clueless about real world possibilities as I thought).
My lovely friends, slightly missing the point, added in that I will have lots of cats and sit on my porch with a rifle shooting at nothing in particular. While I wouldn't necessarily be that surprised if I turn into a Crazy Cat Lady with various delusions, blurting out personal information to the bus driver (I would have lost my driver's license long, long ago due to several speeding infringements after believing "they're all following me!") and never wearing shoes. My three children from four failed marriages no longer visit because I'm just too difficult now and the neighbours on my street would steer clear of me as my unkempt hair would suggest a certain lack of personal hygiene that they would just rather not encounter, so I would be forced to seek company in a number of loyal and overfed cats. However, I actually don't like cats. At all, really. Particularly fat cats. Which I guess would make me an Even Crazier Cat Lady.

Melbourne
1. I live in Brunswick, which for those of you don't know is kind of an up-and-coming student area where we all own hard rubbish couches and have no respect for our landlords. Anyway, I happen to also live really close to sydney road which looks like this:
We share it with a lot of homeless people, but also an array of pubs/cafes/bookshops and of course Savers. Anyway, last Friday night I went to The Spot - I had never been there before, but if you live in Melbourne it's the one that does dinner deals depending on the time of day, just past Barkly Square. They have a new Friday night event that's called hung:
I highly suggest it to those too drunk to know where they are, and that aren't afraid of bra-burning lesbians and muscle-tee clad gay men. Otherwise maybe you should stick to Barrys.
2. Even if you don't live in Melbourne, I'm guessing you've been on Lygon street in Carlton and discovered Readings. If not, next time you're here make an afternoon of it. It's a great book shop with an amazing cultural studies section, and as I have discovered, also a poetry reading fortnightly on Mondays called Poetry to Pages. As my friend Luke is currently trying to infiltrate the world of Melbourne poets, we attended post-tsubu-jug and enjoyed a few glasses of (free) wine before drunkenly setting ourselves down for half an hour of poets.
Expect more spontaneous Melbourne-suggestions, gays and bearded ladies.

vag-pie, bearded ladies and bongos
- The scary bearded lady who works at my local post office (more to come in another post)
- My terrible track record of marks throughout my university career
- Cigarettes (always)
- The fear of my wine falling onto the carpet (again)
- The pie my housemate, Pablo (read Robbie) made for me for dinner that read CUNT in pastry (we're a classy bunch.obviously)
Also I thought I would add some colour to this post. This is Adam Cullen
Believe it or not he actually won the Archibald in 2000.

I can make pasta while intoxicated too
- 1 onion
- a splash of white wine from your glass (I definitely didn't spill it)
- 1 clove of garlic
- a handful of home grown and home pickled olives
- several slices of salami
- 2 fresh tomatoes
- tomato paste
- red wine vinegar
- salt (use ionised, it makes you smart) and pepper (black, cracked, it tastes better)
- dried oregano (i used to say o-RAE-geno ironically because that's how silly American's say it. But now I like the way it sounds and say it that way all the time)
- homegrown fresh parsley, rocket and spinach
- Use more than 2 tomatoes, therefore reducing the need for tomato paste
- Use chicken or even lamb instead of shitty woolworths salami
- Cut up the olives into smaller pieces. This way there is more olive flavour spread around rather than giant lumps of awesomeness that I looked forward to with every bite.
- Make it when there are more fresh greens in the garden. The three leaves of spinach I had were more like one and half due to the holes from caterpillars/other slimy things/the families of rats I often see running along the fence while having a cup of tea at the sink.
- Don't bother with the pasta - the sauce was awesome enough on it's own.
- Drink more before entering the kitchen. Drunk cooking is the best way to pass time. Even if you're not hungry.
Texts with a Friend
Takin' over the 'hood.
- Body Guards
- A dog that doesn't cower at the vacuum cleaners/wooden flute and bark when you turn the radio on. He would have already mastered the 'kill' stance, and wouldn't whimper when you take his collar off.
- A crack pipe. I have never had the desire to smoke crack, but I think if I was a linchpin of organised crime I would do more than occasionally smoke joints. Perhaps I could turn the lounge room into an opium den.
- Respect. You might not understand this point if you don't live in my area. When you're walking down the street, trying to find the latest cafe craze or the right bar you need to make sure that the bar/cafe you're entering is in fact the cool place to be. Otherwise linchpin status is immediately revoked.
Unfortunately I have none of these. So far in my quest to take over the 'hood I have:
- Stolen two trolleys, filled them with boxes and left them in the middle of the road
- Had a house party that was triumphantly average (as opposed to depressingly bad)
-Spent too much time in the terrible pub down the road (that is remarkably un-trendy and has an eighties night every weekend)
Thus, until I make the jump from 'average unemployed student' to 'gangsta' I will always have good/average parties, a tendency to drink warm goon (as my freezer is too small) and housemates instead of body guards.

Also I hope you like the layout. It's currently 3:30 and I'm about to take another sleeping tablet.
OH, and after I got home tonight (at 12am, as I was studying hard) I cooked pasta with:
2 Onions
Some rocket
Some garlic
Olives
Tomato pasta-sauce stuff
4 glasses of red wine
Also I saw Maree Pardy at the pub. She lectures gender studies (and thus holds like, god status. Or Hitler. Read the link, Yhana showed it to me)
