water runs from snow

I remember being only 12 years old and looking through the window of a jewellery shop, noticing all the sparkling diamonds and beautiful watches which I still can't afford. At the bottom there were always fountain pens with gold piping and covered in rich black lacquer. I turn to my brother and ask what's the point of a pen that's worth over a £100, he replies that these are the pens you use to sign important documents. You rewind a decade and a half later and all I have is a biro and a headache.

I know if the document in front of me is important as I always seem to make a hash of signing it. Never a mistake signing the thing with my own signature, but always random things like the date or some number I'm required to fill in. I break out the tipex and try to cover up my tracks as quick as possible before the management see. I quickly sign it and I realise my life is finally going to change.

People keep asking me when I'm going, I will be there when I am there, will let you know then.

During her time with the brilliant green, she was rarely seen without a plush toy (or t-shirt, or bag, or hand puppet) of Elmo, the Sesame Street muppet. Kawase even went so far as to have one (if not more) accompany her on stage as the band performed on numerous occasions.
