Oh those weekends at home. I was feeling a bit nostalgic lately while perusing through old friends photos. There are so many ways we all become linked, connected, and on the same plane. I am learning patience, as well as yearning for it because it's never one or the other. This is a good week to advance myself in order to prepare for the crush that is the end of the semester.
I'm a rather private person, and I think I'll keep it that way. I know my wants, and it's about time I learned to voice them. Sweet rose, we'll get a blossom out of you one day.
I just had a song playing in my mind, and as soon as I attempted to recall the name, it slipped away. A feather in the whirlwind that is my mind.

Lykke Li
I just had to post this up. Lykke Li is so amazing, and I'm grateful to be able to watch her perform live. April 20th! Belly Up! Word.

They'll eat you alive.
Every once in a while, I'll find an artist that I respect so much that I would choose to purchase their cds rather than download them. I download a lot. Since getting my new laptop, I've decided to go through my music collection and make sure I listen to everything before I decide whether or not to keep it, or move on to the next sound. The new object of my desire is the Yeah Yeah Yeahs cd, It's Blitz.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Hysteric
Alex just cleaned the room for me yesterday, and I must say, he did such a fantastic job. I've never felt so at peace in my own room. So much space, such tranquility without the burden of clutter.
Anyway, at work last night, it was boring. What did I do? I read up the synopsis of every single Asian movie that was remade into an American movie. There's definitely a reason I can't watch those movies, for they make me extremely queasy. Just reading them all and imagining them made me queasy. I'm not easily perturbed by movie spoilers, or just not at all. My rationality is that my imagination gets to stretch itself and grow through this process of reading and visualizing.
C'est la vie.

My heart burns
I'm moving forward. I always talk about moving forward, but I talk so much about the past. Maybe I'm an advertiser at heart; I'm a seller of the scene, the event that doesn't exist in the present, but only of the future yet reminiscent of the past.
I was lucky to be able to see Adele perform last week. She almost made me want to cry with her beautiful voice. There are some people who I believe have the ability to make me cry in such a way, and she's almost one of them. If I saw the Beatles and John Lennon, I would definitely be bawling out of happiness. When I feel as if I've been lost in the midst of this school year, I can turn to the Beatles and they make me feel like a good person again.
Times are changing. So many burdens have been lifted off of my back. My path towards greatness has become so much clearer than it has been before. Graduation is coming closer and closer, and after that, I'm determined to take a 2 week vacation. I want to travel with friends. I'll be ready. Time to plan ahead and see where the world takes me.
All I want in the world is for us to get it right.

A conundrum of sorts
If I never knew what life was going to throw at me, I don't think I'd be ready. I've always been scouting ahead, finding out what lies ahead in the realm above me. I've never had to do so much tactical planning in my life. Sometimes, there are things you just can't plan for. Other times there are, and I've done my research well enough ahead that I can do something about this.
I need courage. I need faith. I wish I didn't know. Ignorance is such bliss sometimes...
