Life - Our Lady Peace

How many times have you been pushed around?
Was anybody there?
Does anybody care?
How many time have your friends let you down?
Was anybody there?
Did anybody stare?

How many time have your friends let you down?
Just open up your heart
Just open up your mind
How many times has your faith slipped away?
Well, is anybody safe?
Does anybody pray?

Oh, Life is waiting for you
So messed up, but we're alive
Oh, Life is waiting for you
So messed up, but we'll survive

How many days have you just slept away?
Is everybody high?
Is everyone afraid?
How many times have you wished you were strong?
Have they ever seen your heart?
Have they ever seen your pain?

Oh, Life is waiting for you
So messed up, but we're alive
Oh, Life is waiting for you
So messed up, but we'll survive

She gets high
She gets lost
She gets drowned by the cost
Twice a day, every week, not a lie

She gets high
She gets lost
She gets drowned by the cost
Twice a day, every week, not a lie

Oh, Life is waiting for you
So messed up, but we're alive
Oh, Life is waiting for you
So messed up, but we'll survive
All messed up, but we'll survive

LALALA

So yeah update time, even though theres not much to update... oh well.
22 days left. Yes 22 more days till Vinnie gets home.. Wish it was even sooner but its better than 75 all over again. Time's been going by quite fast since I went up to Hamilton to visit.. Been over 2 weeks already, and only another 3 more tomorrow! I'd say I just need to take it a week at a time.

So I found a torrent file for rockstar supernova, which for a second year in a row, ive missed the show quite a bit, and i've got the INXS one somewhere in my house but yeah, its going to take quite some time to download since its been 2 years but i'm sure i'll get it eventually.

Wow I feel like i've waisted my summer. It's now 1 week into august and i've barely done anything this summer. Highlights include :Going to the Matt Mays & El Torpedo/Our Lady Peace/Hinder concert with Courtney and Lindsey, Next night spending the evening with Katie and Jared, my father and his cousin's 50th b-day party, and of course going to Hamilton. That stuff plus working, is pretty much my summer in a nutshell. Even on nice sunny days i haven't been going outside getting a tan or anything, cause i've been to busy at WORK. It really sucks when that happens but oh well, might as well happen this summer just to make it seem worse. 22 more days though and i'm sure it will be better.

..... yeah sorry guys I can't even think of anything to write....

Back in Buisness... well for now at least.

Now that i've added an extension thing to Firefox that will allow me to post to BOTH blogs, hopefully i'll stick to it.

August already. wow. This summer has surprisingly gone by quite fast. Yes it's probably due to the fact that right after Vinnie left it seemed like something was going on every weekend up till the week i left for Hamilton. Can't believe I left there 2 weeks ago. At least now I only have 25 days(his flight gets in 5 mins from now in 25 days), so theres something to look forward to thats soon..
Other than that all I really have been doing is working. I've hung out with Hilary a few times since i've been back, but thats about it. Just working, because where I work just LOVES to give me either too many shifts or not enough... rawr.

So yeah not very exciting. Lately i've been trying to get back into listening to music more with my newfound LOVE of Matt Mays and El Torpedo. I recently bought their new album "Terminal Romance", and man it's awesome. It's really reminding me of how much I used to love listening to music and just how little i've been listening to lately. As I type i'm starting to either download or import a bunch of my cds back onto my computer. Also since i've been so out of the music scene loop for the past almost year and a half, i'm open to suggestions of music that I may like.

Anyways, I can't really think of anything to put in this entry... hopefully i'll remember to update more.

Since it's 1 of 2 songs that I can only find the lyrics to, these are the lyrics to Tall Trees, one of the songs off Terminal Romance

"
You're on a leek, Gonna sing you a song

Two hundred years in the ground

Tall trees hangin' over the road

Feels like... they're starin' me doooowwwwn

It's in the way that they sway

It's the feeling I git

They just don't want me around

Tall trees hangin' over the road

Feels like... they're starin' me doooowwwwn

Who's gonna love you when I'm gone?

Sittin' leaves to the wind

I'll give her to you in a while

And find... Somebody new in the Spring

When the sun melts snow

And the water runs down

A little lol river flow

And I laid with your tissy

In the grass tonight

And watch him, gro... gro... GROW OH OH OH

Sleep in the weight thing... smilin' bin

Gimme a ride downtown

Tall trees hangin' over the road

Feels like... they're starin' me doooowwwwn

Tall trees hangin' over the road

Feels like... they're starin' me doooowwwwn

Tall trees hangin' over the road

Feels like... they're starin' me doooowwwwn

They're starin' me doooowwwwn

They're starin' me DOOOOOOWWWWWWWN

(Amazing guitar solo)

OW OH OH UH OH OH (Repeat)"

Everyone happy now?:P

I sometimes feel like I'm Holden Caulfield, sometimes Jack Keroac

Music. Definitely a huge part of who I am. No matter what mood i'm in I always want music, depressing songs when im upset, really upbeat get me moving if im in a good music, and sometimes just anything i can play, close my eyes and get caught up in the song.

It's very soothing, and something that I think my life would be completely different if I didn't appreciate as much. I honestly think right now what is keeping me sane through everything is the music. The past week its pretty much all i've been doing, just like the old days and its keeping me sane. That among a couple of other things i guess. There's just something about it though, that keeps me going.

Enough on my rant of music, This has definitely been a weird week. Emotions have been up and down but things are starting to balance off finally. Although Either the lack of sleep is making me get a cold, or my allergies are starting up again. Could really be either.

I've been working a lot so not much interesting going on in my life lately. I suppose though I should wrap this up considering it took me 2 days to write. Maybe ill post again later.

Superpowers - Five Iron Frenzy
Bacon bits and jalapenos on my polish hot dog.
half a pound of potato chips,
and a beef jerky log.
I press my face to the window,
a wrapper sticks to my shirt.
Eight people in a stinky van,
a couple more couldn't hurt.
Eat some food off the floor.
I've developed a taste for bread mold.
Ride aroudn in a van,
don't take a shower for six weeks and...

We've been given superpowers,
ask us for an autograph.
We sing, we dance we'll make you laugh,
don't you want to be like us?
We've been given superpowers,
ask about our rock and roll,
our hair , our clothes, hobbies, and pets.
Does he have a girlfriend yet?

Everyone in the band can't stand me,
just because I fell off the stage,
and kind of by accident,
I broke the promoters legs.
Sometimes we have a deadline for writing our songs.
Five minutes left to write this one la,la,la,la,la,la,la.
Sleep in a sleeping bag.
Every floor looks the same as last night.
You wake up, you drive, you play a show,
and then you sleep again.

I sometimes feel like I'm holden caulfield,
sometimes Jack Keroac.
I wanted to be famous,
now I want to take it back.
Don't want to rock the mic,
dont' want to meet the pope,
I just want to share with you,
how we got this peace and hope.

I once wanted to be famous,
now I want to take it back.

AHHHHHHHHH!

It's been a while. It's been quite the past few months with everything, yet here we are, and it's almost Christmas yet again. I'm not sure how I quite feel about it this year. So much has changed than every other year, and I don't know if i should be excited or dreading it. I guess for now i'll try to look on the positive side of things and be excited as to the latter. I must say though, I kind of can't wait till this week is over. It's going to be a super busy week and I can't believe tomorrow is Wednesday. Frig, Christmas will be here before I know it and I wont have everything done that I had planned to. Guess I'll just do my best, because at this point, thats all I can really do. Hopefully i'll post a longer entry over the next few days but seeing as its almost 1:30 and I have to get up at 7 tomorrow, It might be wise to get some sleep.

Toodles.
