Music to soothe your shot nerves

Here are some songs for you guys to soothe your shot nerves. If you're anything like me, you might like them.

The Cardigans - My Favourite Game
This song and I go back a long time. I used to watch the music video and think that I could be that crazy driver who goes completely insane on the road one day. Turns out, I never did. But I do like to listen to this song when I'm driving down the highway. Make sure the highway is wide open though, because this tune will definately make you step on the gas pedal just a little bit harder.

Rock 'n Roll Soldiers - Funny Little Feeling
Ever time I head this song, it makes me want to run, or walk in a very angry manner, kinda like nothing can stop me. It's pretty decent. I discovered this song on the soundtrack to the tv show One Tree Hill. You'd be surprised at the great tunes you can find on that show. It's got some weird guitar in it, but I think that's what makes this song so unique.

Tyler Hilton - Glad (Acoustic)
This song is very cute. I like the meaning behind it. Just when you think you're happy, you find that something is missing. Something that you don't think you can go after, but know you should. It's very odd, but unfortnately that's the way things go sometimes. This song is actual very truthful in the way I feel right now. I'd like to go after something I want, but at the same time, I don't know if I can.

Led Zepplin - Ten Years Gone
I don't know what it is about this song, but it just takes me to my happy place, even though it is probably one of the saddest songs I've ever heard. It is reminiscent of all the time that passes you by. The track speaks for itself.

Little Big Town - Stay (Acoustic)
What can I say about this song? If you've ever wanted someone to stay behind just a little bit longer, no matter what, just to help you get by, well, this song epitomizes that feeling. It's a song you want to listen to in the dark. I think it gives it more meaning that way, but then again, that's just me.

Now that I've given you guys a dose of music, let's get on to my life. (By the way, my writing this post is a way for me to procrastinate and not write my paper which really does need to get done.) I mentioned in an earlier post that I met someone. (Let's call him BuffMan) He's a really great guy, sometimes I think he's full of hot air, and he's a bit cocky, and arrogant, but I think he means well. We got together not this past Friday, but the one before, and just hung out. We watched the dumbest movie in the world that listed someone's occupation as being "A Visionary." Who does that? Like being a visionary is going to pay the bills. (The movie was called "The Secret" if anyone is interested. However, let me save you some time and tell you that the secret to life is something called 'The Law of Attraction' which to me is only something related to ancient Greek grammar. But hey, that's just me.)

I doubt things will work out with him. Oh well. Next!

In other news, a good friend of mine is going through a rough patch. He called me last night and he was just a wreck. It's hard for me to deal with those kinds of situations, mostly because I've never felt as bruised and battered as he has, and because it scares me. You try calming someone down who doesn't want says he's destined for something terrible. (I'm not going to get into the details.) Instead of being soothing and respectful, I gave him tough love. Basically I told him to grow a pair and be a man and dump the girl he's with now before she causes him any more pain. I mean this girl is one cannibal fetus appendix fucker. I have never met anyone more messed up that she is. Who strings along somebody for their own sick pleasure? Argh.

Anyways, I think that's enough for today. I'm going to try and write some more of my essay.

Bitch Soup

I couldn't resist, and I know I should be working on my paper, but I visited Overheard in New York and came across the funniest post I have read in a while.

"Charlton Heston: Bitch Soup Is People!

Middle-aged black dude #1: I wanted to take Shaquan for the weekend, and you know what that bitch told me? She said she was taking him to his grandmother's house!
Middle-aged black dude #2: Man, what's with that woman? She don't let you see your kids!
Middle-aged black dude #1: His grandmother don't need to see him. She's too old to see, anyway! I ain't seen Shaquan since Ju-ly! That's fucked up. I should kill that bitch.

Old Asian lady walks through the train selling noisemakers and batteries.

Middle-aged black dude #1: And why is it when I'm selling bootleg DVDs in a primarily black neighborhood, all the police see is me? When I'm around all black people! But don't nobody say nothin' when this Asian chick sells this junk. Then I'm in jail and this bitch is selling. Then they tell me, 'You can't get out until you pay.' How I'ma make money if I'm in jail, fool?
Middle-aged black dude #2: Heh heh heh. Right, right. But fo' real, though, you should kill that bitch!
Middle-aged black dude #1: For real. I should. Shit's fucked up. I don't care about her pussy -- I can get another pussy. 'Scuse my language. No offense, ladies. I can get another bitch to fuck, but that's my kid! I'ma kill that bitch. I'ma chop her up! I used to be a butcher, man. I'ma chop her up. Make bitch soup! And sell it to the homeless.

--A train

Can you believe it? Make some bitch soup? That was hilarious! Although I do not agree with the violence against women yadi yadi yada. I just thought I would share with everyone. Be good ya'll, and don't do anything stupid!

Pink Floyd - The Wall

I must be the luckiest girl in the world. I just came back from a Pink Floyd tribute concert. Note for note, lyric for lyric...it was an earth-shattering performance. As soon as they played "Comfortably Numb" I just got goosebumps all over.

I definately suggest checking these guys out if they're in your area. Absolutely phenomenal!

Classic Albums Live

Good News

I met someone. It's exciting! I will write a proper post very soon telling you guys about him. But for the moment, I feel...happy.

A drunken stupour

ANNOUNCEMENT:
PinkPolish and I, along with some military men, took out Shewhomakesmencry yesterday for her 23rd birthday. She got so wasted, that she passed out, puked, and gave me a heart attack all in one night. The stubborn little one who does not eat much was doing shots like a pro...until she could barely lift her arm to do another one. All in all, the night ended with her having to be carried out of the bar.

Suddenly I See

I feel like I've finally come to terms with myself. I think i was lying to myself before, thinking that if I found somebody to be with, I would be much happier. Since then I've realized that the only person that can make me happy, is me. I need to stop dwelling on the past, overthinking the present, and resenting the future.

I need to open up my eyes right now and see. And suddenly I will see what I want to be.

PinkPolish and I have been pretty swamped with school work, so our posts may seem few and far between for the next little while. But I promise, as soon as I get some time, I'll write about recent events in more detail.

'Til then, enjoy the most played song on my mp3 player:

K.T. Tunstall - Suddenly I See (Most of you probably know it from The Devil Wears Prada soundtrack.)

What I Can't Have

During the last couple of months, I have fallen for a man. He's asbolutely incredible, I love everything about him. His intelligence, personality, and great sense of humour. He makes me feel good about myself when I'm feeling down or confused, he inspires me to do better, and he just makes me laugh at the most random things.

The downside to all of this is that he's completely off-limits. For the record, he's not a married man, but he is engaged in a profession that restricts me from pursuing anything with him. Recently, I've come to realize that even attempting to snag him would be wrong and difficult. Also, I'm starting to think that he doesn't feel the same way about me, even though we have had "sparks" before. (At least from what I can tell.)

I'm just going to give up on him for three reasons:

1) I can't read him or his thoughts...which can lead to fatal things.
2) It's too risky starting a relationship with him.
3) Fear of rejection/consequences. (I just can't get over this one)

I guess this is just one of the decisions I'm going to have to live with the rest of my life.
