So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have you found? The same old fears.
Wish you were here.
And I do.

so why havent i heard this until now?
whatever. i love it.
love it.
love it.
Leave all behind now to watch her crawl
Through our dark gardens of insanity
She'll be the light to guide you back home
Just give her the kiss worth dying for
And open your arms
Watch me fall for you, my Venus Doom
Hide my heart where all dreams are entombed
My Venus Doom
Grieve all your hearts out and she'll writhe, enthralled
In tragic, ecstatic agony
And in her flames we will die some more
Just show me a life worth living for
And light up the dark
Watch me fall for you, my Venus Doom
Hide my heart where all dreams are entombed
My Venus Doom

| What Do You Have To Say? - Music: My First Favorite Band |
[10 Sep 2007|09:52pm] |
*giggles*
the Dixie Chicks
I was really into country music was I was younger, and, although I listened to like everything else, this is the first band I can remember listening to by myself and deciding for my own that I really liked. It was my first CD!

| YAY! |

So really soon I am leaving to go to Niagara-on-the-Lake. I am obviously excited. I've been waiting all summer! I just wish the weather were nicer today. Last year we went and it was raining, so at least it's not doing that now. My dad wants us to stop and visit him at his bridge when we go into Canada, and then he wants us to get some random wine from some random vineyard on the way back. Pretty exciting stuff.
As if all of that weren't exciting enough, the infamous Ottawa brawl game is on MSG tonight! I can't wait to see that again. That game was insane. So today is going to be a pretty fabulous day. I also got up early enough to see Wonder Pets(!) on tv, but alas, it was the Sea Lions/Kangaroo episode, which we all know I've watched like 500 times. I could quote it. That was sad.
So now I'm going to go. I am very excited.
The end.

So Whitney's party was so much fun! I love campfires and s'mores! And her dogs are precious.
And on the way home I suddenly got a sick feeling and my deer senses went crazy and like two minutes later I saw a bunch of deer on the side of 20A and they were just watching me. And as I got closer they turned around and bounded back into the woods. And I was glad they did that. Cos man, do I ever get scared.
Also, I just want to comment on this oddity: I downloaded JT's "FutureSex/LoveSound" cd in its entirety after it came out (from limewire when I once had it). SexyBack was the single that was out then. So I listened to all the rest of the songs on it and I decided "My Love" was my favorite. And then it was his next single! (And then he released What Goes Around... which I really didn't like so I'm pretending it didn't exist.) And so I suddenly fell in love with "Summer Love," which THEN became his next single. So...since that one came out (about three million years ago) I've been in love with this like 8 minute one called "LoveStoned" because the beats are just awesome. And guess what I heard on the radio today? You guessed it. I know that's not THAT weird, but seriously, I've just been picking JT's next singles. It's sort of awesome. I'll let you know what his next one is gonna be.
:D

So I don't know if it's the Timmy Ho's Iced Coffee I just downed, or the fact that I'm going to a party tonight, or my new Marie Claire that came in the mail and has a huge article devoted to jeans, or the fact that my skinny jeans are actually looking good on me today, but I am ABOSLUTELY JAZZED right now. Like, I don't know the last time I've been so purely happy. I am so in love with life and so in love with living. That is sort of redundant. I feel free.
That's all for today.
Thank you.
Wait I'm not done.
This made me laugh: Three months after I've decided where I'm transferring, Bosotn College sends me a viewbook and a letter in the mail saying, "Thank you for your interest in Boston College...blah blah blah." Hilarious because I "expressed interest" in that place in the beginning of February. Whatever possessed them to send me out information AGAIN, and in JULY?!?!?! I almost peed my pants. It's almost as funny as the time one month ago when Trinity College decided to finally tell me I'd been accepted there. As if I was going to wait until the middle of June to hear from them. Because I have nothing better to do with my time, and their decision was the most important thing ever. I laughed very hard.
Now I'm done!!!!!!!!!!!

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
In 24 hours I will be at the NHL draft and I will probably be going out of my mind. I'm very very excited. Cam knows approximately everything about all the draftees, and I am just jazzed to see who gets chosen for which teams, etc. I am also (mainly) thrilled about the players from foreign counties *cough Finland cough* because that's just awesome.
*squees loudly*

Dear LJ,
WHY do you do this to me? I just uploaded every single one of those images to photobucket, repeated those steps, and ALL you can give me is a box with a FUCKING RED X IN IT?!?!?!?!?!?!?! I did everything correctly (or at least am under the impression that I did) so WHY do you give me boxes!?!??!?!?!
*scampers off to FAQ page*
and i won't even BOTHER to put a mood in this post because it will just show up AS A RED EXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.

Oh happy day! She cut it nice! She highlighted it blonde but my hair is still a light brownish/blondish color, and she gave it some layers so it has some volume. The ends flip up a little bit so it looks (as Nathan said) "spunky" lol. It's weird to look in the mirror and see myself because it doesn't look like me yet. It's sort of creepy. It makes me look more alive, which is always good if you're into that sort of thing. The hairdresser was so great, too, so I will probably go back to her next time. And it didn't cost me ANY MORE than it cost me at Penney's! AT ALL! And this place was infinitely better. I loved it. So I am quite happy to have found something I like. It's much lighter and healthier for the summer. And it doesn't look terrible! YIPPEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

OhmygoshIamgettingmyhaircutforthefirsttimeinforever! I am more than sort of nervous because a) I've had my hair long-ish and parted in the middle for like my entire life; b) I've never been to this place before, but it was like really recommended by about 3000 other people; c) I don't even know what I really want done with it. I think I want some layers, but I don't know how that would look with my little face. And I want some more color in it because this "dark blonde" business is getting unusual-looking. I'm bored with it. So I guess I shouldn't be so nervous...but I still am. What if it turns out horribly and I look like a freak? Or worse, if the woman is really upset with me because I didn't bring a picture or something? And I hope it's not like $200 or something I can't exactly afford right now. Oh well. I suppose it'll turn out all right in the end. I just need to take some sort of anxiety pill between now and then...
Wish me luck!

So unbelievably tired because sleeping for about three hours does NOT cut it. At least work was short. And fairly painless, if you subtract me dropping a very heavy box full of $1.99 Snow White Color-and-Carries on my flip-flopped-foot. Whatever.
It's really much too hot outside for me right now. I would like it to be around 70 perhaps, because that I can handle. I'm sort of burning.
But oooohhh! On another note, I joined a new community and posted random newbie info about myself and like everyone in the whole world is welcoming me! It makes me feel ever-so-special. And loved. Which is nice for me.

So I haven't updated my LJ in appoximately 5000 billion years. Which is sort of sad because it's something I used to like doing a lot. But my whole life just sort of exploded and I had to fix things up and I think finally *crosses fingers* things are starting to get (somewhat) back to normal. I have to register for classes at Skidmore soon and I don't even know how the flip I'm gonna fit in everything I need by the time I graduate. I don't even care. It'll work itself out because I said so. So there.
Tomorrow I have to work like way too early doing ridiculous hardmarks. If I have to hardmark another tower of Princess socks I'm going to kill somebody. It's not even right.
So I should probably go to bed soon.

Life aint always beautiful
Sometimes it's just plain hard
Life can knock you down, it can break your heart
Life aint always beautiful
You think you're on your way
And it's just a dead end road at the end of the day
But the struggles make you stronger
And the changes make you wise
And happiness has its own way of takin it's sweet time
No, life aint always beautiful
Tears will fall sometimes
Life aint always beautiful
But it's a beautiful ride
Life aint always beautiful
Some days I miss your smile
I get tired of walkin all these lonely miles
And I wish for just one minute
I could see your pretty face
Guess I can dream, but life don’t work that way
But the struggles make me stronger
And the changes make me wise
And happiness has its own way of takin it's sweet time
No, life aint always beautiful
But i know i'll be fine
Hey, life aint always beautiful
But it's a beautiful ride
What a beautiful ride

So, I figured that all the stuff I was going to post about is really quite meaningless and doesn't even deserve to be written down; thus, I am just going to say: I am very excited about going home. I miss my bed. I miss cold weather. I miss my brother. I miss watching hockey on tv. I miss pretty much lots of stuff.
So.
Not looking forward to: grammar test tomorrow, art presentation on friday...i think that's about it.
I think I'm going to take a shower really soon. And then do more awesome stuff, like eat food and make myself sick. Cos I'm awesome like that.
