What are you?

Ha.

What am i trying to picture in my head?
Drawers block v_v

I still cant tell. Today is not my best of days.

Who is this person in my thoughts? What is it?

I notice this person all the time. It raises my curiosity every time i see it.

I can usually create an assumption of a persons personality in my mind but not this person. And in the most fundamental ways. SERIOUSLY!

Its probably best not to approach until i have more certainty. My aim is not to embarrass. I just have a desire to know awkward things. Things you shouldn't ask a stranger but can only receive the truth from such a person?

TO NOT KNOW SUCH AN EASY OBSERVATION!! Even when i stare at you so hard!

You Raise Me Up

Dear Blog,

If Mae is feeling up to it, she'll be singing this song in class on thursday.
I hope it goes fantastic!

--------

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

I'll be happy when...

- - - -

Ah, such a long time ago that i recieved these words.
Words that were meant to be read but have been lost to time.
Today i bring back a few. Mission completed.

- - - -

We convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married, have a baby, then another. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more content when they are. After that, we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage. We tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse gets his or her act together, when we get a nicer car, when we are able to go on a nice vacation or when we retire. The truth is there's no better time to be happy than right now. If not now, when? Your life will always be filled with challenges.

It's best to admit this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway. Happiness is the way. So, treasure every moment that you have and treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time with ... and remember that time waits for no one.

So, stop waiting ...
Until your car or home is paid off.
Until you get a new car or home.
Until your kids leave the house.
Until you go back to school.
Until you finish school.
Until you lose 10 lbs.
Until you gain 10 lbs.
Until you get married.
Until you get a divorce.
Until you have kids.
Until you retire.
Until summer..
Until spring.
Until winter.
Until fall.
Until you die.

There is no better time than right now to be happy. Happiness is a journey, not a destination. So work like you don't need money, love like you've never been hurt,
and, dance like no one's watching.

Something About Us - DAFT PUNK

It might not be the right time
I might not be the right one
But there's something about us I want to say
Cause there's something between us anyway

I might not be the right one
It might not be the right time
But there's something about us I've got to do
Some kind of secret I will share with you

I need you more than anything in my life
I want you more than anything in my life
I'll miss you more than anyone in my life
I love you more than anyone in my life

My Best Friend

WEEZER LYRICS

"My Best Friend"

When everything is wrong I'll come talk to you
You make things alright when I'm feeling blue

You are such a blessing and I wont be messing
with the one thing that brings light to all my darkness

You're my best friend
and I love you, and I love you
Yes I do

There is no other one who can take your place
I feel happy inside when I see your face
I hope you believe me
'Cause I speak sincerely
and I mean it when I tell you that I need you

You're my best friend
and I love you, and I love you
Yes I do

I'm here right beside you
I will never leave you
and I feel the pain you feel when you start crying

You're my best friend
and I love you, and I love you
Yes I do

You're my best friend
and I love you, and I love you
Yes I do
Yes I do...
Yes I do

Incubus Lyrics - Love Hurts

Attached below are the lyrics of an song by the band Incubus. I posted it up on here because i have dedicated myself to learn the words.

UPDATE 29/11/07: This song has caused me to write up analytical statements about myself, which are below the lyrics, if anyone cares to read.

Tonight we drink to youth
And holding fast the truth
Don't want to lose what I had as a boy
My heart still has a beat
But love is now a feat
As common as a cold day in L.A.

Sometimes when I'm alone I wonder
Is there a spell that I am under
Keeping me from seeing the real thing

Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
'cause without love I won't survive

I'm fettered and abused
Stand naked and accused
Should I surface, this one-man submarine?
I only want the truth!
So tonight we drink to youth!
I'll never lose what I had as a boy

Sometimes when I'm alone I wonder
Is there a spell that I am under
Keeping me from seeing the real thing?

Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
'cause without love I won't survive

Without love I won't survive

Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
'cause without love I won't survive

Love hurts, ohhh-oh ohh
Love hurts
Without love I won't survive
Love hurts la-la-la-la-la-la oh
Love hurts
Without love I won't survive

FINITO

I usually never listen to the words of a song. I think of the vocals as just another instrument, a simple sound combining with the other instruments, but not something that has expressed a thought or statement.

Thoughts that do arise are unique to me, because they are created by how the sounds emotionally sway me at that point in time.

Thats why when i was growing up, i found it very easy to enjoy techno, electronica and rap/hip-hop/r&b music. With alot of techno music, they just repeat the same words over and over again and the brain starts to ignore them. With rap there are soo many words squished into the one song, the only words people can remember is the chorus.

Perhaps i am a very simple minded person. The beat and the simple sounds are all i need to please the soul. Perhaps thats why i dont usually listen to 'white people music'

White people analyse too much. they hurt too much. Instead of black and white they meddle in the grey area way too much. They are frustrated and over-sexed, or severely under-sexed. And this is expressed in their music.

Well, thats what i think anyway. Sometimes i think white people make life way too hard on themselves.

Its very hard for me to instantly like their music. It has to be ground down, worked in and repeated severally. The trigger for me to like Caucasian tunes is women.

When I think a women is damn sexy, their musical appetite seems to grow on me. From Sara and her lips on the hilltops [back in my highschool days], to Karen and her miniskirts at the Big Day Out - women and their charms have broadened my tolerances to this overly angry/sad/over-analytical music.

The song above, 'Love Hurts', would never have been noticed by me if Karen hadn't mentioned it in her journal. The band 'Queen' would be nothing if not for Sophia. The Dandy Warholes, Muse, Metallica, The Strokes, The Living End, Oasis, The Cure, Green Day - they would have meant nothing to me without women.

Strange that...

This is the first actual blog post i've made in months. And of course it lingers on about women, again. Shit i must be the horniest little blighter this side of West Auckland.

Karen, dont you say anything! i know your laughing, cut that out!
