London – By Aneliese Whittaker
Concrete jungle, Streets mumble, Journey tumble.
Black cab, tourist lap, have you got a tube map?
Inside my mind, the answers we never find. Bright lights making us blind.
Clock ticking, fag flicking, fight picking.
The city of sin, people rummaging the bin, a game impossible to win.
Capital city, full of people to pity.
Have you got a light mate? N29 bus 10 minutes late.
Saturday night, and I’ve got a date.
Down by the river, drank so much I’ve hurt my liver.
People of all races, different faces, from different places
Fill the street, you’ll never meet, my heart beat …
… pounds, loud sounds, go and buy those rounds.
Fast pace, feels like space, in the rat race
Oxford street, find a tube seat, our eyes meet,
Out drinking, dignity sinking, got me thinking.
Keep to the left, check your pockets for theft,
Excuse me mate can you spare some change please? Get on your knees. You’re hearts freeze..
.. To stone, in the world all alone, nowhere to call home.
The streets full of smack, going round this track, have you got any crack?
Eyes full of greed. Back of the bus smoking weed.
Give me a little bit, just one hit,
8 am on the Clock, cockney hickory hickory dock, people begin to flock.
Please stand clear of the door, papers scatter the floor, suits begin to pour ..
Into the light, get home in the thick of the night, looking for something to fight
And the streets begin to mumble, tubes beneath rumble, dreams take a tumble…
In the concrete jungle.

.. Battered Pavements ..
Is the blood pumping? Can you feel it?
Everything is surreal.
We see what we want to see, we feel what we want to feel.
We are the makers.
Make it something worth while!
Are you blinded by the unhappiness?
Change it! Make it!
Is the blood pumping? Can you feel it?

Have we met before?
Well Hello There.... is there anyone there? Heeeellllllooooo....Mmmm, probably not no... nevermind, either way, I am still going to pretend I am Carrie Bradshaw from S&TC - It makes this process feel less worthless.
Ok... so maybe u want to know more... maybe. maybe not. who actually cares?!
Well, none of the formality's really matter, but the basics do. Yes, I'm the token 23 year old Student, living in London - struggling to find her way... YES THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF US I KNOW. But on my journey, I have a lot of fun.
HOLD ON - It's important to remember the typical clichés - 'Things are not always how they seem',OR,'Don't Judge a book by its cover' etc etc Blah Blah Blahhhhh, Mehhh!!
My day to day life has many struggles, maybe none different to the average Joe, but what makes my life different to the next person is my attitude towards it.
'why am I blogging?'.... Mmmmm Good question!? I have no idea... really, I don't.
I think Blogging has become a socially acceptable way of expressing thoughts, feelings, emotions and processes with the world and it not appear 'abnormal'. Maybe I want a piece of this craze? maybe I am just bored? OR maybe I just want to Vent something to the world?!
Sometimes you just need a place to rant, vent and share... to stop the madness, regardless of who (if anyone) reads it. :) I am normal, I swear. Sometimes everyone needs their own place to put the world to rights, regardless of who cares.
Who knows. Who cares. Not me.
My 'socially acceptable venting' will involve everything & Anything from the past, present, future...
~Small Snippets~
I will write about everything in my life, I will write about anything I feel I need to vent about, anything I want to share with my Blog and anyone that may wish to read it.. if anyone..
London Life, University, Partying, Work, Men, Sadness, Sillyness, VIP times, Friends, Vodka, Poems, Rage, Drunkenness, hatred, Severe lack of money, Tears, Admiration, Cooking, Hero's, My Family Farm, My career - or lack off, Ambitions, Hope, Coping with Death (soul destroying Death), TV, Disappointment, My complex family, Flat Mates, Food, Ex's, Dancing, Laughing, Joking, My NEED to succeed, Music, My laziness, My mood's, My Highs / My Lows, Fashion, Love, Diet's, and of course, My ongoing struggles with many things and How I deal with them.

My life is Crazy, and it's always been this way. My life is a complicated mesh of madness & not always good madness. But Still. It's madness that needs to be vented.
