I hate the song Sk8er Boy by Avril Lavinge. So sad. Only at least there is a happy ending. I hate songs about normal things. Shame it is such an awesome song and the music and lyrics are simply immaculate.

For I have known them all already, known them all:
Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
I know the voices dying with a dying fall
Beneath the music from a farther room.
So how should I presume?Eliot

The Moments of Dominion
That happen on the Soul
And leave it with a Discontent

It isn't that cool. Especially when you are searching it up for the lyrics and you wouldn't have known there were numbers. Don't see how it was relevant. Fair enough if the number eight was in the song, but... Yea.
Do you ever have those times when you think someone is walking up to you, and you're smiling, so happy to see them, and you don't even notice everyone elsee around, then someone comes walking from behind you and waves at them and they wave back? (Rehetorical question.)
I hate that. Happened to me today. I felt pretty stupid, but then I decided, 'whatever, I'm the one eating pizza, if they came to talk to me then they'd want some.'

Is I, the self, transient or does it come back after death, like waking up in the morning after a night of peaceful sleep?
This sentence contradicts itself - no actually it doesn't.
" Don't tell me you can't do it; tell me you will try! Don't tell me that you have tried and failed! Tell me that you attempted something new, for there is no failing in life just setbacks! For I know the feeling of that fire burning and I know the feeling of taking one step forward and two steps back, but remember tomorrow is another day!"
Shona Blackthorn
"He is asleep. Though his mettle was sorely tried,
He lived, and when he lost his angel, died.
It happened calmly, on its own,
The way the night comes when day is done."
We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

My random thought of the day:
Do these parents that leash their children realize how ridiculous it appears? And almost soul-crushing, if you ask me.
The last thing I'd want when my first date came to the house was Mom showing him all the wonderful pictures of me at the park, with my leash.
My thought is we are in a chain of thoughts that chain us and want unchain myself, for slavery of thought is what I distaste most.
For all of us are prisoners of thoughts
“Those who seek to satisfy the mind of man by hampering it with ceremonies and music and affecting charity and devotion have lost their original nature””
“If water derives lucidity from stillness, how much more the faculties of the mind! The mind of the sage, being in repose, becomes the mirror of the universe, the speculum of all creation.
Computers are slow. They should be faster.
And the kettle should boil faster.
And teachers shouldn't check our phones at school.
And, a thought to explain why I don't appreciate how lucky everyone is to have these things, they aren't. Ehh... Nevermind my rants about how the industrial revolution brought education and that brought the world spiralling downward.
Then again, if it wasn't for the industrial revolution then there wouldn't have been mass unemployment in England during the mid to late 1800s. Then there wouldn't have been as many convicts and Australia wouldn't have been colonised.
I love slow computers, pathetic kettles and teachers that have authority to check our mobile phones.
For I have known them all already, known them all:
Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
I know the voices dying with a dying fall
Beneath the music from a farther room.

"Things are only impossible until they're not."
That's a Star Trek quote I think, but I can't remember who said it...
Struggling new actresses like me write their own write-ups for the film press. How tragic.
