Thirty-Three

What keeps me busy? Work. What keeps me busy after? It depends. Right now, im caught between 2 things - playing a new game called Air Rivals and trying to become a DJ in a chatroom of some chat program.

i dug this song out of my mp3 collection - call it nostalgia, but i think the 90's alternative scene really was the genre's golden moment. the same way i now tend to think it was my golden moment too...

pretty ironic how things turn out - i was happily enjoying life, growing up with the melancholic, depressive songs of the 90's Alternative like the song below. now, the meaning of those songs caught up with the present me. so this is why they were called melancholic - i think ill be using the word for a while...

i just hope i have enough strength to last.


Thirty-Three (Smashing Pumpkins)

Speak to me in a language I can hear
Humor me before I have to go

Deep in thought, I forgive everyone
As the cluttered streets greet me once again

I know I can't be late
Supper's waiting on the table

Tomorrow's just an excuse away
So I pull my collar up and face the cold

On my own

The earth laughs beneath my heavy feet
At the blasphemy in my old jangly walk

Steeple guide me to my heart and home
The sun is out and up and down again

I know I'll make it
Love can last forever
Graceful swans of never
Topple to the earth
And you

Can make it last forever, you
Can make it last forever, you
Can make it last

And for a moment I lose myself
Wrapped up in the pleasures of the world

I've journeyed here and there and back again
But in the same old haunts I still find my friends

Mysteries not ready to reveal
Sympathies I'm ready to return

I'll make the effort
Love can last forever
Graceful swans of never
Topple to the earth
Tomorrow's just an excuse
Tomorrow's just an excuse and you
Can make it last, forever you
Can make it last, forever you
Can make it last, forever you

Forever, you...

Diamond Crevasse

...so what is a Crevasse?

1. A deep fissure in a glacier or other body of ice. Crevasses are usually caused by differential movement of parts of the ice over an uneven topography.
2. A large, deep fissure in the Earth caused by an earthquake.
3. A wide crack or breach in the bank of a river. Crevasses usually form during floods. The sediments that spill out through the crevasse and fan out along the external margin of the river's bank form a crevasse splay deposit.


I learned about this song from one of my favorite anime series of all time - Macross Frontier. 1st time i heard it, i felt my heart begin to race and my knees weaken all the while being covered by an unbelievable surge of emotion.

i still get the same feelings to this very day.

Wonderful

Wonderful (Adam Ant)

Did I tell you how much I miss
Your sweet kiss?
Did I tell you I didn't cry?
Well I lied
I lie lie lied
Over real over
When I nearly hit the face I loved
So tired of packaging the anger
Always pushing you away

Did I tell you you're wonderful?
I miss you yes I do
Did I tell you that I was wrong?
I was wrong
Cos you're wonderful yeah

Did I tell you how much I miss
Your smile?
Did I tell you I was okay?
Well no way
No way way way

You're wonderful yeah yeah

Now now now each and every day
I realize the price I have to pay
You you're wonderful
And now for your information
I'm walking around like an arm decoration

You you're wonderful
So high I can't get over it
So deep I can't get under it
You
You're wonderful yeah
You're wonderful yeah yeah
You're wonderful yeah yeah
You're wonderful yeah yeah
Wonderful

Did I tell you you're wonderful?
I miss you yes I do
Did I tell you that I was wrong?
I was wrong
For so long long long



while the song doesnt really exactly parallel anything, it does hit a few buttons...

sigh...

cheddar, quickmelt, mozzarella, blue, swiss, white..guess what?

me: i cant sleep. i tried everything to get to sleep - even though i had to stay a little late after work because of some client requirement. means i should be dead tired by now.

me: its funny though - i even remember saying i felt a little lazy to go to work last night. i ended up doing some overtime (read: thank you for the time you donated mr process guy)

me: me and not feeling sleepy...
hmmn...i remember something like this a while back...

myself: let me guess - next thing is you'll be dieting... (mwahaha...)

life is exciting isn't it? =P
