Me, Me, Me (and other paragraphs).

Little thing I took from Tim’s ellejay. I used iTunes, and the shuffle button was very friendly.

Opening credits: Cannonball-Damien Rice, O
haha i love this song, so i wouldn’t mind it being my opening credits, plus it’s not too fast.

Waking up: Golden-Fall Out Boy, Infinity On High
this is different from the rest of the fob songs, and i love the lyrics ’cause they’re different, plus i’m a sucker for piano in songs.

Average day: Who I Am Hates Who I’ve Been-Relient K, Mmhmm
Whaaaaaat?! Oi I’m quite optimistic what! And I certainly don’t hate myself, but I do regret some things I’ve said lately. Huh for an average day this song means it’s pretty sucky, hoho.

First date: How I Go-Yellowcard, Lights & Sounds
Hmm. This song is really sweet, and it’s very gentle, not at all like the other Yellowcard songs. The title’s appropriate though, since I always end up having very short-lasting attachments, or whatever. I love the lyrics of this one too! “i froze in the moment and she changed it all” and the female vocalist’s voice is really good.

Falling in love: Sweet Tangerine-The Hush Sound, Like Vines
Huh? Okay this has no connection, at all. Okay maybe a bit, where the chorus goes, “Sweet tangerine, will you please come back to me? /
‘Cause I don’t think that these feelings are gonna leave”
But then it’s like, breakup right?! Ugh, whatever.

Love scene: All That We Needed-Plain White T’s, All That We Needed
I confess I skipped a few songs because I didn’t really know what they were about. I like this song, it’s got this sort of falling-in-love vibe, and depending on the other person. But for a love scene, it’s pretty fast, I think. “if you could see all the possibilities we might not still be standing where we started” is a really good but confusing line.

Fight scene: Rootless Tree-Damien Rice, 9
I like this song, the opening guitar notes have a strange but interesting-sounding progression, plus it’s catchy. If you ask me the fascinating chorus of “fuck you” repeated six times with words in between is appropriate to a fight scene. But not a super violent one lah. Maybe just an argument.

Breaking up: You’re All I Have-Snow Patrol, Eyes Open
“It’s so clear now that you are all that I have” is really sweet, but if a guy said it to me I would be kinda freaked out, but not so much that I’d break up with him(x I break up with people for strange reasons, uhuh.  Not really fitting.

Getting back together: Hum Hallelujah-Fall Out Boy, Infinity On High
Haha I haven’t really listened to this song enough to manage to figure out the lyrics, but supposedly people would hum hallelujah when getting back together? Huh. But if I broke up with someone, I wouldn’t get back together with the same person again ’cause it’d be too weird (I think).

Secret love: Sleep Don’t Weep-Damien Rice, 9
This song is too slow, even for me. Maybe that’s supposed to be like, I reveal my secret love very slowly? Okay /doesn’t get it

Life’s okay: Elephant-Damien Rice, 9
“And she may cry like a baby” isn’t exactly an indication of how life’s okay. Hoho my iTunes is not being cooperative with this meme!

Mental breakdown: We Intertwined-The Hush Sound, Like Vines
Hmm this song is very lively, because of the fast piano. But it doesn’t really show a mental breakdown, so maybe I will never have one! Haha. Oh but wait theresthis line, “Who wants to wake up, who wants to lose it, who wants to live in this place?” Huh.

Driving: Up Against (Blackout) -Taking Back Sunday, Louder Now
Aiyo please don’t let me black out while I’m driving.

Learning a lesson: Alfie-Lily Allen, Alright Still
It’s about her telling people to stop doing destructive stuff, so yeah. Too tired to try to make sense of this.

Deep thought: Spin-Taking Back Sunday, Louder Now
HAHA WHEN I’M IN DEEP THOUGHT MY HEAD SPINS LOL. /amused

Flashback: What I’ve Been Looking For (reprise)-HSM Soundtrack
Huh, so I have to have a flashback to find what I’ve been looking for? That sucks.

Partying: Take Me Away-Plain White T’s, All That We Needed
“Take me away, I know I’m going to hurt somebody”, so what, like I’ll get so drunk I’ll hit people and my friends will have tot ake me away? Aiyo so wild.

Happy dance: Risque-Cute Is What We Aim For, The Same Old Blood Rush With A New Touch
I don’t get it. Honestly. “pretty please just trick me” isn’t veyr happyvibe!

Regretting: Delicate-Damien Rice, O
Haven’t heard this song enough times to know how/whether or not it relates to the question. Damn.

Long night alone: Make This Go On Forever-Snow Patrol, Eyes Open
Oh no! Hahahaha every night so far I’ve had has been alone, not counting my sister sleeping in my bed ’cause her cot is in the living room and my mom needs to do stuff there or whatever. And so far I’ve never been attached long enough for it to count (THE NO REGRETS GEM WAS MADE FOR ME PLS). *loner*

Death scene: Waiting Game-Yellowcard, Lights & Sounds
Whaaaat I’ll have a prolonged death? I certainly hope not! I hope to die when I’m nice and old like, 70/80 plus, and maybe die in my sleep or something, not have a heart attack. And I don’t think I will ever attempt suicide, it’s not my thing and it’s so not glam! And the line “More than ever, I see the real you” puzzles me when I try to think about it in terms of my death. TOUCHWOOD! *touches Kester’s head*

Closing: Love Lead Me On-The Afters, I Wish We All Could Win
Okay this is a christian song but the lyrics aren’t explicitly religious except for the chorus, so I don’t mind.
“Someday I’m gonna go out to the country/
I’ll drive til the highway ends/
Chasing after picture-perfect sunsets/
To take away my breath”
And the tune is rather nice and sweet, with this simple drumbeat, so it’s a nice closing song- I can imagine the credits rolling(:

Yeah that’s my life in iTunes Shuffle’s titchy brain. Some parts are strange, some parts are funny, some parts just fit, but some parts just make me think that iTunes has no brain, artificial or not.

Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone! If you don’t have a Valentine it’s okay, that was what Mass Swim was for, hoho!

All those kaypohs who saw me out on 10cent Subway Day, it’s not what you guys think kay? Stop asking me who it was! It pisses me off. People who deserve to know, who I trust, who radiate the “tell-me” vibe, know, so if you don’t know wait for someone to tell you. Those who saw me out and are currently making bushfires with that rumour (or so it is now), you can put those fires out with the news that no, I’m not with him.

I love Golden by Fall Out Boy, it’s the only song from their newest album that I really really like. It’s more my thing now I guess, slow piano chords and voice, with some harmony in the chorus.

Went shopping today, saw this adorable striped string bikini that was 69 at Ripcurl, but the top was so tiny ’cause I’m not flat, unlike some underweight anorexic who went with me who thinks she’s fat. Hoho. I SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT IT instead I bought this 79 bikini from Tannlines that doesnt look 79 and has ugly crystal thingies. SHIT LAH REGRET! Damn damn damn. Why am I so stupid with my money, I still care that the top was tiny on the Ripcurl one but it was cheaper and cuter.

RRRRAAAAAWWWWRRRRGHHH.

I got my iPod back today, anonymously with an explanation. Honestly the explanation is doubtable, but at least I have it back and she was nice enough to return it. :D The best Valentine’s ever, really.

Kester may be sexy, but I am sexier. And his logic is so unfollowable I tell you. Like, bassists are sexy, and why are bassists sexy? Because Kester is a bassist! Um, so how is Kester sexy? Because he plays bass! Gosh he really rocks at going full circle.

are you never sure about what you need,
are you always doubtful that we can all see
that you listen at keyholes and hide behind doors
or that it’s obvious that she is already yours
