listen good..
so i was walking throught the UC the other day around lunchtime, and CFRU, our schools radio station was having a noon hour concert type thingy, and were broadcasting live from right there in the courtyard.
and then i heard this amazing band that i've fallen for completely. just a girl and a guy, and some keyboards.
but her voice! oh man.. it's so cool. deep and kinda sultry, but so beautiful.. and it seems so delicate. if you saw her, she looks delicate too, but also the kinda girl that could totally kick your ass.
check them out. they're called habitat..
www.myspace.com/habitation
my favourite song is a tie between next year and snow song.. next year is the only song that i heard them play live, and it was recording perfect..
guelph. you have saved yourself from disappointment by producing these two kids.

lamb
"what is that sound,
ringing in my ears?
the strangest sound i've heard for years and years
the sound of two hearts,
beating side by side
the sound of one love
that neither one can hide.
the sound that makes the world go round.
the sound that makes the world go round.
what is that sound,
running round my head,
funny i thought,
that part was long since dead
but now there's new life
coursing through my veins
beacuse there's someone,
who made it beat again.
the sound that makes the world go round.
the sound that makes the world go round.
the sound that makes the world go round.
the sound that makes the world go round.
what is that sound?
ringing in my ears
what is that sound
i've heard for years and years
the sound of two hearts
beating side by side
the sound of one love
that neither one can hide."
this song is sung so delicately it soars right through me like a sweet nectar.
i've found myself falling in love with old songs again and again recently.
this is probably because i've also found myself losing everything and just escaping with a pair of headphones and just dreaming days away.
time is moving too fast here at school, and then end is coming all too quickly. but at the same time, it's not going fast enough. i just want to be done, and free of this institution's rules and deadlines and find the real world.
but then again, the real world is filled with even more deadlines. and even more rules.
last night i was talking with someone very special to me about what heaven might be like.
our heads began hurting just trying to imagine what forever is really going to be like.
forever is really long time, and i'm so grateful that forever isn't going to be like this..moving to fast or too slow.
forever is going to be perfect.

C# minor scale
i wish that i could be in peterborough right now, watching mel sing.
it's weird being in this house, cause i feel awkward just breaking out ina ny type of song, or even singing along with music.
i miss people who appreciate it as much as i do.
i miss singing with my bests.

i guess i'll just carry on
i would kill for some inspiration right now.
something to make me feel better.
this house is stifling, and not in a warm way.
but instead i just have cold feet and cold fingers and tired ears and a tired heart.
i want to come home. home with my Father, so i don't have to feel like this anymore.
no more hurt.
no more ignored.
no more overlooked.
no more silenced.
no more cold.
no more pain.
no more questioning.
just no more.
cause i'm really sick of it all.
but right now, that's all i have.

bibliothèque
so here i am just sitting in the library, waiting for class to come sooner so that i can get my midterm back.
i probably should be studying, since i stayed home this morning to do just that and ended up sleeping instead..but i guess my body needed it.
what my mind needs right now though is for someone to program it and for it to be 100% knowledgable in all things anthropology. safe to say i'm somewhat screwed, but as long as i pass i'm ok with that.
living is getting better, not easy. i've realized that there's always going to be problems of sorts, wherever you are.. even if it's with people that make you the happiest.
nothings going to be super perfect, or even close at all.
i was really not too happy earlier this week, with stuff going on in my life that sucked, but it's nice to know that mom's are always there to get you through..
i'm such a cheeseball.. and this post is stupid and pretty random. i'm kind just writing for the sake of writing, with nothing really important to say.. ugh.
i'm friggen lame.
more to come later.. hopefully something better, cause this is just dumb.
i have words that are longing to come out, but i just have to make sure that i'm ready to share them with the world.

oh septmber, how i abhor you
one month in and i'm dying.
school's not even that hard this year. acutally, even though i have more courses than either semesters last year, and i'm actally keeping up with most of my readings, this year isn't going to well so far.
i should have listened to my family when they said that moving in with 5 other girls wasn't a good idea. i can't stand it anymore. girls are gross. our kitchen smelled like something died in it yesterday, and there's always dirty dishes everywhere. now i don't want to just sit here and complain all the time (which unfortunately seems like it's all i do about this darn house..sorry) but i just don't understand how girls who i thought were pretty tidy, considering their need for a perfect looking room all the time, could possibly be so disgusting. i am so grateful for the room that i have though, because it's such a great escape. i may be making it seem like i'm antisocial or something, but i'm just not like the rest of them. i'm also grateful that michelle is in the house. she's the only one who makes the effort to come all the way up to my floor, and to include me in things. is it wrong if i start feeling bad becuase they've stopped asking me to do stuff with them? of course, it's things that i'll say no to, like going to this kegger tonight.. but still. it's like i'm the roommate that they don't really know. another person added to the group to lower the rent a little. i just wish that sometimes the other girls wouldn't forget about me. i may be quiet around them, becuase i don't like talking about what they're talking about, or i don't want to start some kind of debate, because we have majorly different beliefs, morals and values, but that doesn't mean that i should be ignored. supposedly we're only supposed to have 4 people living in our house, so right now we're two over the limit. if two have to leave, i wonder if it would be me. of course i know who i'd want to leave, to make this house a little more pleasant, but if it were me, what would i do? quit school for this year? go work somewhere at home? there's no way that anyone could find another reasonable place to live now, or especally in the middle of the semester. and commuting is out of the question.
eff word. this sucks. it all sucks.
at least i have michelle. and tuesdays are awesome with erin, cause we have no problem discussing how this school and everything around it could be so much better and everyone's retarded. (oh no.. we're not cynical..yet).
thank goodness josh is coming for the weekend. i need something to trust in.
i need to paint something.
eff.
