As I was whining about going for training on Friday (haha what's new?), my beloved and most esteemed Der said to me, "Why don't you do something that you like??" That was a tough question to answer, because as you know there are times when you love something very much but still have no desire for it. Such as training. I was whining because I was so tired from lack of good proper rest (MSN is a curse sometimes, I tell ya) and that I was out like a light for a good forty-five minutes that same afternoon.
I do not remember my witty reply to her, but I'm sure it was witty anyway. She responded, "BABE," she said forcefully, "You need to do something that you WANT to do, not something just to fill up your time." Then she reiterated something about happiness and satisfaction in life.
Sometimes I think Der has really good insights about me. I'm just passing time, for...? I don't know what for, but I know that I need my time filled up so that I don't have spare/free time to do/think/act nonsensically. Does that even make sense?
Anyway.
Item of interest: can of potato chips I bought a while back. Der asked if she could have some, and being my usual selfish self, I replied, "Not in a million years." She took it anyway (annoying!) and peered at the label. "What is this? Extreme Cheddar." She paused as she took a bite, then glanced over at me. "I bet you bought it cos it looks different, right?!"
Guilty as charged.
Facebook is a great stalking platform. Just have to repeat what millions of other more astute users have concluded already.
And what's a blog post without a youtube video??
I'm checking in to rehab cos everything that we had didn't mean a thing to you.

lots of youtube videos - go crazy!
Some songs that I won't be able listen to again for a very long time:
1.
There's a cover by the Pussycat Dolls. Do you call it a cover version? Or is it just another version of the song? Anyway.
2.
FloRiDa is such a punk name k. I always thought it was Flow Rider. The lyrics are damn funky though. I don't really think it's the 'offical lyrics' as it claims.
3.
I think Der knows this song quite well now, considering how I kept looping it. Hehe.
And these two songs keep looping in my head. Am trying to pick out Therapy on the piano now. Haha. Obviously I'll get bored with it after a while.
Arrogant boy, love yourself so no one has to;
They're better off without you.
Arrogant boy, cause a scene like you're supposed to;
They'll fall asleep without you.
You're lucky if your memory remains.
Honestly, I have yet to sit down and watch the mtv for this song:
I can live without you, but without you I'll be miserable at best.
And that's all, folks.

taylor swift - breathe
To quote Taylor Swift at the start of the following video, this is a "sad break-up song".
I see your face in my mind as I drive away,
Cos none of us thought it was gonna end that way.
People are people and sometimes we change our minds,
But it's killing me to see you go after all this time.
Music starts playing like the end of a sad movie.
It's the kind of ending you don't really want to see,
Cos it's tragedy and it'll only bring you down,
And I don't know what to be without you around.
And we know it's never simple, never easy,
Never a clean break, no one here to save me.
You're the only thing I know,
Like the back of my hand.
And I can't breathe without you,
But I have to
Breathe without you,
But I have to.
Never wanted this, never wanted to see you hurt.
Every bump in the road I tried to swerve.
But people are people and sometimes it doesn't work out.
Nothing we say is going to save us from the fallout.
It's 2am, feeling like I just lost a friend,
Hope you know it's not easy,
Not easy for me.
It's 2am, feeling like I just lost a friend.
Hope you know this ain't easy,
Easy for me.
And we know it's never simple, never easy,
Never a clean break, no one here to save me...
Hmm how do you forget an entire country because of one person? How do you stop yourself from reacting whenever someone mentions a particular singer?

when it all falls apart
And because I'm such a crazed Sims fan...
And here ya go:
I'm having the day from hell,
It was all going so well before you came.
And you told me you needed space
With a kiss on the side my face (not again!)
Not to mention the tears I shed,
I should have kicked your ass instead.
I need intervention,
Attention to stop temptation to scream.
Cos baby,
Everything is f'ed up straight from the heart.
Tell me what do you do, when it all falls apart?
Gotta pick myself up; where do I start?
Cos I can't turn to you when it all falls apart,
No.
Don't know where I parked my car,
Don't know who my real friends are anymore.
I put my faith in you:
What a stupid thing to do! (When it rains, it pours)
And not to mention I drank too much.
I'm feeling hung over and out of touch.
I need intervention,
Attention to stop temptation to scream.
Cos baby,
Everything is f'ed up straight from the heart.
Tell me what do you do, when it all falls apart?
Gotta pick myself up; where do I start?
Cos I can't turn to you when it all falls apart,
Can it be easier?
Can I just change my life?
Cos it just seems to go bad every time.
Will I be mending?
Another one ending once again...
Would be quite funny to sing in Simlish. Then no one knows what the heck you're singing and no one will heckle you for singing such a wretched song.

hands
“‘I Wanna Hold Your Hand.’ First single. Fucking brilliant. Perhaps the most fucking brilliant song ever written. Because they nailed it. That’s what everyone wants. Not 24-7 hot wet sex. Not a marriage that lasts a hundred years. Not a Porsche or a blow job or a million-dollar crib. No. They wanna hold your hand. They have such a feeling that they can’t hide. Every single successful love song of the past fifty years can be traced back to ‘I Wanna Hold Your Hand.’ And every single successful love story has those unbearable and unbearably exciting moments of hand-holding. Trust me. I’ve thought a lot about this.”
-Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist
My thumb, under your thumb.
Der is going to declare my blog a dead zone again! But there's no time to blog when all the time is taken up by students needing help, by work that needs to be done, by friends who need waterbottles to be filled up with delicious chocolate.
Week 5! And the JC1 kids will finally be starting school tmr. I miss the feeling of being a JC student. Best years of my life!
And now it's back to work and exhaustion.
