Much to blind to see the damage he's done, sometimes a man must awake to find that, really, he has no one...

Here We Go

Maybe lately I have been going a little easy on the blog side. Probably one of my initial fears of me not having the motivation for continuing with the blog when it doesn't have an audience, may be coming to fruition. You're going to have to decide whether you want a more detailed but spread out blogs, or more frequent, short and sweet ones. To be honest, it'll probably be a mixture of the two as my mood dictates. But when I'm under pressure and my back is against the wall, that's when I thrive. Prepare to be amazed... or at least momentarily less bored

So lately I've been laying around in bed on the laptop a lot, doing sweet FA. One of the plus sides to this is that I end up seeing pretty cool things online, such as this short film I came across called Signs. It was advertised as a 'must see for all the ladies', that's probably why I watched it and loved it! Definitely worth twelve minutes of your life. I would love to be a technical whizkid and put up video's, songs, and pictures, making my blog look ever so pretty like I see on so many other's, but I'm not, so you're just going to have to bear with me. Here is a link though;

As some of you may or may not know, I sometimes like to draw pictures and write poems (or songs as I like to think, to sound more cool). Seeing as I don't have any of my pictures uploaded and have given them away to people, I will post a poem. This is one of forty two in my collection and one that has received the most positive feedback from the site I post on.


'Last Goodbye'

A tear is masked, as sheer and vast
I’ve never feared a task but you’re so lovely
The year has passed, it’s clear at last
I’m just here to ask do you love me?
The ring I claim, my wings inflamed
I cling in vein to you-and-me time
I sing the same, your king’s to blame
If things were changed would you be mine?

Thrown and thronged, in the zone and strong
But I can’t hone this song about you
Been alone all along, I’m known to be wrong
I’ve grown to belong without you
Ease what’s been done, three’s just no fun
Seizing you from acting grim
The sea and the sun, is reason for some
Please don’t you run back to him

I’ve been here before, between you and the door
Seen it all and more, your love is a sham
It’s mean to ignore, not my queen anymore
I dreamed you’d adore me for who I am
You melt all the boys, svelte in your poise
I never felt a rejoice, hoped my past would die
You theft me of voice, bereft me of joys
And left me no choice, this is my last goodbye.


What can I say, sometimes I just like to rhyme. This was kind of inspired, when I was going through my last Jeff Buckley phase, by his song Last Goodbye. On that topic, I've been into live performances recently, Seasick Steve and Band Of Horses deserve a mention, but none do it better than the ol' Jeffster. Towards the end of Uni, I bought 'Jeff Buckley: Live At Sin-e (Legacy Edition)'. I had the songs on my iPod anyway, but this came with a DVD, booklet, monologue pieces and other cool things. I gave it a spin the other day and it really is mind blowing, all taking place in a tiny cafe, where he earned a name for himself before he became famous. Two Cd's of covers versions of his idols and the early versions of his very own songs that would form Grace. I love listening to him live, he always ad-libs songs, adding and removing lines as he sees fit, turning songs lasting three minutes into ten with his heavenly crooning. Every version of the same song is different.

Also on a side note, I've started speaking more regularly to Baker, now that he's back on Facebook, which is awesome. And the other day, out of the blue, Abbie started speaking to me also, which was pretty cool and made me smile. Really need to meet up with them over summer.

Told you I'd be back to my best, bitches!

Thought/Quote/Lyric of the Day...
OK, Jake deserves a special mention 'cause he came out with a cracker the other day, something about not needing a girl, when you have an amazing barnet. Obviously his lovely brain was a lot more eloquent, but i forgot to copy it and now it's lost to the eternity of time. Therefore official one is...
"Kiss me out of desire, baby, not consolation"
