Have signed up to a flatmate finding website. Is pretty good, with profiles and requirements and so forth. You can be quite specific with what you're looking for. I didn't realise how much a creative household mattered until I started reading some profiles. Automatically my mind ruled people out who said 'I work in HR and I love playing watersports' and went huzzah! at people who said 'I love literature and art and I'm a music/art/theatre student who has a degree in engineering'. Didn't realise I was so prejudiced/creative lifestyle was so important to me. Didn't realise how important it was to have people who are like you, even down to the previous degree bit. It's important to have people who understand your lifestyles living around you I guess, even if they're not in the same field.
Note - while typing in a status update I accidentally wrote 'flatmatefingering' instead of 'flatmatefindering'...oh dear!
On another note, I watched Wall-E yesterday. Incredibly moving. Made me think about what I wanted in life. And I felt very uncomfortable about the fat people ruling the Axiom space ship thing! Oh no! I started doing leg stretches in the seat. Haha. And although Wall-E was a bit wet, it made me think about getting off the computer and having some real interaction with people. How much time do I spend with the people I love during the day? Not enough.
And also - totes to Pixar for making Wall-E's solar charge sound the start-up tone for Mac!
