right now i'm listening to the last xiu xiu album, it's called 'boy soprano'. i have it turned up really loud as to drown out irritating, high pitched shrill female voices in my office.

i made that for my dumb blog a few days ago so....

This minute: Bad Religion

Lately: Rise Against, old Metallica, Eazy E, Erik B and Rakim, .....I'm always listening to NOFX and The Ramones too...The Misfits...Mp3 files of fart noises...

Will Ferrell audio clips from Saturday Night Live....Bill Cosby stand-up, audio books....

I like very few new bands or artists.

I want to vomit everytime I hear Usher, R. Kelly, Babyface or those brit wankers g. gates and r. williams....tossers...same to westlife....shoot those guys somebody.

ha ha ha... lol!

i know how you feel I go through the same sh*t a hundred times a day.. in an office full of girls! chinese are the kings and queens of stating the obvious!

get in in the morning "zao, waimian leng ma? "

every friggin day 10 minutes of talking about how cold it is! of course its cold its Beijing winter!

lunch time "chishenma?" "aiya, chi sanmingzhi!" "chi zhege gou ma?" "surely that sandwhich cant be enough for a big laowai like you!" "here eat my apple" "here have some cookies"

"you know you should loose some weight you would be very pretty if your face wasnt like a moon" "would you like some bread?"

STFU!

but they getting used to my hostile responses so now rather than speak directly to me they just talk about what im eating amongst themselves.

other than that.. im listening to Australian radio stations online but the reception is bad and keeps going into Buffering mode! ggrrrr

@ Jenn at least there are other westerners in your office, in fact the whole of hua li is full of westerners on every floor (am i beggining to scare you yet? LOL) you can just chill in your corner desk and hope no one disturbs you; here i'm the only westerner and i get treated accordingly, there's no other laowai who work in this office block so i get people from other companys come to stare at me and see what the laowai is doing (i often feel like i'm on the discovery channel "Now watch as the adult male waiguoren chews his food with his mouth shut, he also manages not to spill anything. A fascinating beast, not much is known about the Common Laowai, but we're sure his diet consists exclusively of gongbaojiding and Mai Dun Lao"). The amount of times i turn down random pieces of pickled fruit/dried-glazed-meat from my "co-workers" is ridiculous "But you should eat something, last month you catch-a-cold, i'm worry about you" I really hate people trying to mother me, my own mother never did lol, and it's just not something i need in life, just turns out to be a little patronising.

"Ke ai laowai, ke ai lao wai, you like my new Kittie mao pencil case? think it's cute?"

No, f*** off. You're 32, grow up for christ sake.

For me, I am listening to everyday is an ugly bitch in my office:" Make more phone calls, we are a consulting company, our office shouldn't be that quiet."

Oh, and the strangled-baby noises of my cat in heat.

Well, I am not listening to anything now, but thanks to that World Aids Day at Kokomo thread, I have that damn Beach Boys song stuck in my head. Torture.

why don't you just hurry up & answer the text message i just sent to your phone, how about?

also right now i'm listening to the new joanna newsom record "ys", its pretty breathtaking!

It is estimated that 17 new species of rainforest dwelling animal will be found amidst my chest hair during 2007. Yet little hope remains for the Ukranian expedition team who were lost somewhere around my left areola during march last year, their tragic loss of life serves as a reminder to all of the dangers that lie within my manly breast jungle.

@ jenn i'm gonna find out who ratted me out, you mark my words!

I am listening to this cool US duo called Prussian Blue. Sinister Dexter recommended them to me.
