Lethargic

I realise I haven't posted a blog on here in god knows how long so I thought I'd satisfy your appetite - I say 'your', I don't even know if anyone reads this nonsense. So what have I been up to?

+ MY GUITAR ARRIVED AND IT'S BEAUTIFUL
+ went to see Foals on sunday night for like the 5th time, really really good, they've improved over the past year and have a more 'wholesome' sound
- college coursework, started writing my English Literature essay comparing the most depressing book ever and the most liberating/shallow book ever.
+ poetry day was last week and i got loads of free books which was cool
-/+ went to Oxford Brookes uni at the weekend, loads of posh toffs/nazis in A&F, and the teachers - I've never known someone so dull talk to much. But it's a really nice city so it's still on my list.
+ Portsmouth uni tommorow and Brighton uni this weekend yayayayay
+ Re-kindled my love for The Kinks

and thats all I can think of at the moment, I'll probably post another one in half an hour to write something else - but at the moment I'm sat on the sofa watching some lame documentary on Monté and Impressionism = joy

ciao xx

The Madagascar Plan

I was surfing wikipedia earlier, neglecting my coursework, and in my procrastinating state stumbled across The Madagascar Plan - a hyperlink from 'the Holocaust', don't ask me why I was looking at that but be safe in the knowledge I h8 the BNP, etc...
The Madagascar Plan was a suggested idea by the Nazis, prior to the Final Solution, to evacuate all of the Jews out of Europe over to Madagascar and essentially create a 'super ghetto'. This was with the use of the Royal Navy's fleet of ships after the Nazis won the Battle of Britain, and going to be funded by freezing the assets of all European Jews. They planned to cover the whole thing up by pretending to give the Jews an automony and the authority to rule their own state (under the higher rule of the Nazis. What a ridiculous idea!

I love wikipedia x
