Oh! Yum. Prawns.

I had a display night on yesterday. Night. That goes shite as per the usual so I come home feeling slightly less dejected than one may think becuase I had already buggered off and listened to my sad (but still very new - shazam!) music. (And nicked into the art rooms again to have a look at art and generaly act and feel deeper than when I whisked myself through before with a friend). It was closed. I think.
Instead of supporting my peers.
I'd only heard all their peices five time.
That day.
I get home. Not too bad - around 9:30. Whilst driving home the other occupants in the car remark on how many people are prawning (and assumedly how many prawns there must be). It was to be fatal. Remarks were made to my dear father.
'Would you like to come with me to look at the lake/prawns?'
'Ok - let me get some green tea/caffiene into me first'
Before I know it in go the nets, out comes the lamp and the bucket appears seemingly out of nowhere. I am in the closest thing to shorts (three quater length pants) that I have and off we go. We get there after the grand total of five whole minuites. I get out with travel mug in hand (I wasn't leaving without one of my latest fads - green tea) to go and peer in the completely dark lake.
'What are you doing?'
'eh?'
'Put the mug away! How are you going to be able to carry the nets and all the rest of it with a mug in your hand?'
The mug and my sanity are placed back in the comforting darkness that now was the car. I take a net and quickly nick the bucket before I got stuck with the lamp.
(The lamp is heavy, you carn't rest it against your leg becuase of the intense heat and for some reason floating it on the water to relieve the weight just isn't on. All in all - the bucket is best.)
We go into the water (which was amazing for my two mozzie bites) but still shockingly cold. I carnt see anything but my father is going:
'Looke - did you see that one? It was right in front of you! That was a whopper! Wow - they're everywhere!'
'No. I carnt see anything. Nothing at all.'
'Look at the border of the light.
In the water'
'I got that one, thanks.'
Then I do start to see and they are everywhere. So, we start with catching them. The little ones were slipping through the nets
('I probably haven't prawned for ten years. I didn't check the nets either!'....in our defense we have been overseas)
But slowly we get the idea. The bigger one seem to stick to the bottom... Which is probably what made them the big ones.
We got just over a kilo of prawns for an hour. They really were everywhere.
All in all it was quite fun. I had a great time. It was Tuesday. It was midnight. I'm not as dead as I thought I was going to be. I'm doing it again tonight.
(Which should be amazing for my twenty mozzie bites)

Plastic Ono Band!


Shazam! I got the Plastic Ono Band AND US v. John Lennon all at once! Score - no? Well, it was a score for me. Now I suddenly have great new music on my ipod which I can access when I'm not on the computer! Arrghhhh!

Absurd Emotion

These are done by a certain Mark Ryden. I know nothing except that I like them. So here they are:







And, I pray, what is your opinion? Slightly morbid, maybe, I admit but quite nice. No?

I think I LOVE them!

Wow! I think I LOVE Envy and Other Sins. Is it just me or does the lead singer guy look a tiny bit like David Tennant? I already have one person who agrees, is there anyone else out there that can see the similarities? Jess, get me this album. Please. Please.
Yes I do realise that for the most of it Jess doesn't bother to read this. Emily? Please?!

Highness

Envy and Other Sins first fab video! Highness. Quite Lovely if I do say so myself.

Birthday CupCakes


Don't they look heavenly? And they tasted great once you found the courage to distroy them. (For a good cause, of course!)

Saturday, October 25, 2008

To Jess, Yes, this is my fav George song...

Within You, Without you


My fav George song. It's wonderfully adictive. I had it in my head all yesterday and with it stuck it was terribely hard to think of other song's lyrics!... Somehow I managed, I guess. (ever so stressful and still manage to do all of english...)

I Know, I'm sorry, I carn't help it!...I don't want to help it.

Jealous Guy


My fav Lennon song. I'm pretty sure I've put it on here before but I'm also pretty sure nearly everyone (all two of you) who go on here don't actualy LISTEN to it, anyway. So, I shall put it on again and again untill you know the lyrics almost as much as I do.....
Someone has to relate to me.

The One and Only for Me...

Girl...



My all time (untill further proven) fav. It's wonderful and has it's own set on in-jokes. Anyone notice the backing-lyrics (i don't know what to call them!)? Yes, I thought so...
I have the booke with this in it and it's wonderful and have even graduated to getting some of teh guitar down-pat. I love this song.
Since Im on a 'I Love' I may have another one for you. I apologise.

My Second Favourite Beatles Song

This Boy

My second Favourite Beatles song (so far). If you're lucky (or un, depending which side you're on) I'll tell you my first...

Wednesday, October 22, 2008

Fine, then

I was going to put a video on but then I realised that I already have a million videos and I carnt properly go on you tube because people will hear. And we don't want that. At all. Anyroad, oh! I shall show you a video. Looke what I found at a certain blog - which I think is quite funny if not ironic.

Well, I thought it was ironic. Byes a bye.

Tuesday, October 21, 2008

Imagine

I just realised I havent put it up already! As you all know - I need to put it up. It is, afterall, a classic.

I think...

I think... I've finis my playlist! Twenty Five of my favourite songs that I currently own! I shan't show it you yet because I have a tea/garden party to go to on Sunday where it will first be realised. (I shall take orders... )
I would also like to say 'sorry' for my being so moody. This goes out mainly to Catt and Jess but anyone else who I've blankly stared at on purpose (or some such things) can accept it as well.
I hope you like my playlist when I show it to you. Don't worry, I was quite goode.

Foundations

I do believe I haven't put any Kate Nash on here, at all. This, is terrible and although Im sure many have watched this video it's just so cute! I also like how he interupts her in front of their fish friends. And how the animals got all embarrassed. I want her shoes.

Envy and Other Sins

Well, I am in a better mood. I dont fully agree on the wonders of blog but I guess that will have to be discuss.

Looke who I found? It's Envy and Other Sins! Even if the music wasn't great (which in my opion it is) the video is wonderful. The title is: It Gets Harder to be a Martyr

Hope you like.

Sunday, October 19, 2008

So...

We're going to commuinicate through the wonders of blog?
If you say so.

Okay, at this moment in time I think that's a shite idea.
Tell me to come back when I can think and give you a bettter more appropriate opinion.

Never Miss a Beat

Yay! Another Kaiser Chiefs song and soon album (Off With Their Heads, I believe)! Yay! I like the Kaiser Chiefs' stuff. I have their other two albums. And with Christmas coming up? Savvy.

(Oh! And it's just so damn catchy...)

Dario Marianelli

I think i may get the booke that it floating around. It was very goode and apparently not too hard? i shall have to wait and see.

Because...

... my goode droog Emily has done so - why don't I copy?
She may love her love to (and quote) the ends of their fingers and tips of their ears but my 'choufleur' (cauliflower - believe me, it's right!) will hear this and only this from my lips:


Regarde le singe sur la branche!

And they better looke.


(Look at the Monkey on the branch!)

Kerflump

I think Im going to go and hide in a corner. I'm just that damn happy. I'll write a letter.

Things We Said Today

How wonderful?

Then we will remeber things we said today.

A bit of Shakespeare Never Did Anyone Any Harm

No?

I hate those bastards heckling! Why would you bother paying? They deserve to be 'burning spastics'. Sorry, that was an in joke and I suddenly realise how terrible it may sound to someone who is not 'in'. Apologies. (I shant take it out).

'This doggy woggy here is my dog' - how wonderful?

It was a larf, anyway.

You carnt win em all.

Five Years Time

By Noah and the Whale. Sorry about the video quality but all the official vids are blocked. Oh, and because I spent the time to find one that isnt blocked I know ofiscaly beat Emily on this one. Shazam!

Urrghh

I am in commerce and trying to stay sane. It's extremely hard. But, at the same time I get to celebrate as my muchly loved friend has started commuinication agen! Then the computer decided to dye (in red to everyones surprise) and I had to wait untill the afternoon to finise this. Anyroad I think I've had enough not in a great ranting mood, all of a sodden.
Catty's back, yay!

Dawn - Dario Marianelli

Isn't it beautiful? I really would like to get it on sheet so I could play it. I think I should be alright with it.

Atleast it's different.

I've Got a Feeling

Could it get more 60ish? Even apart from the fact that the Beatles lit are the 60s! Listen to the lyrics especialy in the verse. It's interesting.

Hey Bulldog

I like this song. Don't say it. I know. I like every song of theirs. But its a phase song. (Did you know if you accedentily type in song wrong you end up typing snog? Glad I spotted it? Yes, I am.) It's a nothing song but I like it. Another reason:

JOHN HAS RED HAIR IN THIS CLIP! There's a 'yay!' if ever I saw one. I like him with red hair. Very nice indeed.

Parrently the barking was spontaneous. Thats why it became Bulldog not Bullfrog. Who sings this Guess?

Wednesday, October 15, 2008

Asleep

I adore this song. No matter how much it may make me think of funerals.

Sha La La La Le

There's nothing wrong with a bit of The Small Faces. Especialy when there are Physchedelic Stones on offer. I would take one. Toi?

Friday On My Mind

This was in my music listening exam! I know she was being sarcastic (about whether we want the CD with this and a couple of other tracks in the test on it) but I really like it.

I knew it was from the 60s. Straight away is what I meant. It was the vibe. I love that vibe!

And his dancing.

I'll Cry Instead

I've gone through this stage (Im in it still) where instead of talking back to people that say stuff that I don't agree with or just generaly dislike (apart from a goode friend guess) I'll stare at them. It works for me and it sometimes makes me feel cold and bitter inside. I've been told when I'm really in the zone (like yesterday) I get a very blank looke on my face. I think I'll cry instead. Yesterday the rain did it for me. Right into my eye. Guess that's what you get for looking straight into the sky.
I'm not a public cryer. I know some people are. Some people carn't help it. But Im not.

Tuesday, October 14, 2008

Bless You

I think it's lovely. Very obscure. Luckily that's just how I like it. Toi?

Oh! Im really sorry but I didnt sensor this so i apologise if for whatever reason Two Virgins album cover comes up. Just in case.

The Sitter Club? Eh....

Well, it was funny when I watched it. Sometimes the lips were even in sync.

Hold On

If you say so. Only for you.

Did anyone else get the cookie monster reference? Yeah, probably just me.

Today

Today was pretty crap
Abit happened
Nothink goode
Today was pretty crap
I went blank
Nothing happened
Didn't talk
Just stopped
Worked for a while
Needed music
Got music
Today was vile
Started to sigh
Gave up
Wanted to get high
All talk
No bark
All balk
Listened to Only a Northern Song on the way home

It did allot
More than you
My head is shot
More than should be true
Fuck
Thats what you get
Get for being angry
When silent
Fuck
but
Remember
It's Only a Northern Song
It made me better
Not you.
Thanks George.

Elvis Costello - Pump it Up

I know someone else has already put it up. I don't care. Just like I don't care what the song is about. But I do know.

Kissogram

They're awesomnuss and come from Berlin. Add into the mix this cute Apple Pie and you have greatnuss. Well, I like it and I thought an honourable mention was needed. Even though a friend had already brought it up.

Paul's Granny Music





Man I love Paul's granny music. That white coat tails and the synchronised walking is genius, to be sure. Has anyone else out there seen Magical Mystery Tour? Oh! The pretty colours! And you know it was pretty good for nothingnuss.


Yes, everyone, this is it. It is wonderful and its peace and love all the way! And how can you NOT love it?

(All cynics out there do NOT have to answer this question)


No, Don't knit for me.

Don't you love his knitted vest? I do. I think it's the most adorable thing. Why doesnt anyone wear them anymore? The Fool on the Hill was shot in France, you know.

Anyway that's enough from me, today. I'll be off and ranting again around the same time tommorrow.

Guess, .........

This is what I say and if you got on here fast enough then it may still be on the top. Well done if it is. If not: Stuff you.
That is all.

Try This On For Size

It is seeming that eyes like the making playlist eye dears.
So lets try another one!
- I do like to have fun.
Lets try my VERY limited knowledge of some of the older rock 'n' roll. Or something from around that crowd.
Hhmm.
Try:
1. Aint She Sweet - Beb Bernie and His Hotel Roosevelt Orch (very 20s!)
2. Be Bop a Lula - Gene Vincent
3. Don't Be Cruel - Elivs
4. Blueberry Hill - Fats Domino
5. You've Really Got A Hold On Me - The Miracles
6. Money (thats what I want) - Barret Strong
7. Roll over Beethoven - Chuck Berry
And that, oh my brothers, is the best I can do from my very limited knowledge. I had fun. Toi?

My Bedtime List

I have started a stage when I listen to music while in bed supposedly trying to sleep. I never get to sleep untill I turn the music off but it helps bring out the sleeply feeling.
So, although this is a work in progress, I shall show you the latest Bedtime List (although it does change) :
1. Paint It Black
2. Dear Prudence
3. Sexy Sadie
4. Cry Baby Cry
5. Her Majesty
6. Golden Slumbers
AND OR
7. Good Night
I realise this list is amazingly narrow minded and I do try to diversify. The fact is I live inside the Beatles list on Artists on my Ipod. I shall probably discover more deserving songs to go on my list but there you go.
I realise Blackbird probably should be on there but it's not at the moment and I would hate to lie.
Oh! And I just realised:
All except Paint it Black (Rolling Stones) are Lennon/McCartney songs just incase, for-whatever-reason you do not realise this.

When in Doubt

When in doubt..

.... choose a classic!

If You'd All Like to Join In

No one's here for the art.

To My Dear And Lovely Friend Emily,

I would just like to say:





























































Ha!
I got mine out first and officialy beat you!


and...



Shazam!
I got there first man!
Very good songs, no?

Moloko

Do I spot a Clockwork Orange reference? hhmm?
Found this:


I think it's rather nice and now ofcourse I shall have to research. Off I go then...

Grass

Yay! I love this! It's by Animal Collective.

Im so going to get over 30 post by the end of October!

I may actualy be social tommorrow.

Thou Shalt Always Kill

I love this! It could almost be a bible! Like the ten commandments even though some are harder then others! I could just live with 'thou shalt not stop liking a band just because they become popular' - he's spot on, though. The last one might be a bit harder, though.

Baila el Chiki Chiki

This was Spain's entry. Remember it? I know I shouldn't like it but 'el robocop' gets me every time. Some things you just have to live with, I guess!

Divine

What weird and wonderful things come out of Eurovision! Thank you France (and Sebastien Tellier) for this entry! Did you watch it? I did. It's a bit of a tradition for anyone who is in any way European or ever lived in Europe. I love it and can't wait untill next years!

- I remembered because it came onto my ipod just this morning.

A Walk on the Wild Side

Lets take a walk, no?

Terms and Conditions

I would just like to say to everyone to be careful with the NaNoWriMo and signing up. I actualy was bothered to read the terms and conditions and there was something about a cookie in there and I dont know what that's about but please be careful. Nothing has happened to my good friend how had already signed up so far but just saying. Carefullnuss is a goodnuss.

NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month)

What is NaNoWriMo?

National Novel Writing Month is a fun, seat-of-your-pants approach to novel writing. Participants begin writing November 1. The goal is to write a 175-page (50,000-word) novel by midnight, November 30.

Valuing enthusiasm and perseverance over painstaking craft, NaNoWriMo is a novel-writing program for everyone who has thought fleetingly about writing a novel but has been scared away by the time and effort involved.

Because of the limited writing window, the ONLY thing that matters in NaNoWriMo is output. It's all about quantity, not quality. The kamikaze approach forces you to lower your expectations, take risks, and write on the fly.

Make no mistake: You will be writing a lot of crap. And that's a good thing. By forcing yourself to write so intensely, you are giving yourself permission to make mistakes. To forgo the endless tweaking and editing and just create. To build without tearing down.

As you spend November writing, you can draw comfort from the fact that, all around the world, other National Novel Writing Month participants are going through the same joys and sorrows of producing the Great Frantic Novel. Wrimos meet throughout the month to offer encouragement, commiseration, and—when the thing is done—the kind of raucous celebrations that tend to frighten animals and small children.

In 2007, we had over 100,000 participants. More than 15,000 of them crossed the 50k finish line by the midnight deadline, entering into the annals of NaNoWriMo superstardom forever. They started the month as auto mechanics, out-of-work actors, and middle school English teachers. They walked away novelists.

So, to recap:

What: Writing one 50,000-word novel from scratch in a month's time.

Who: You! We can't do this unless we have some other people trying it as well. Let's write laughably awful yet lengthy prose together.

Why: The reasons are endless! To actively participate in one of our era's most enchanting art forms! To write without having to obsess over quality. To be able to make obscure references to passages from our novels at parties. To be able to mock real novelists who dawdle on and on, taking far longer than 30 days to produce their work.

When: You can sign up anytime to add your name to the roster and browse the forums. Writing begins November 1. To be added to the official list of winners, you must reach the 50,000-word mark by November 30 at midnight. Once your novel has been verified by our web-based team of robotic word counters, the partying begins.

Still confused? Just visit the How NaNoWriMo Works page!

Taken from http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/whatisnano. - Im in! AND Ive got moral support because Im doing it with a friends! Anyone else want to join?

Sorry

I would just like to apologise because I'm so heavy on the videos. I put so many on. So sorry about that but Im afraid I doubt it'll stop.

Hey Pinky!

Yep, ol' Rick Springfield when he was in Zoot! Personaly I like Darryl. His hair? Oui, Oui! Merci! I wish my hair was as lusicous glory as his!

Ok, the commaire said Strange Things was coming up. So here it is!


And I thought - why not? So here 'folks' is Zoot's version of Eleanor Rigby....


Not bad considering what they had to go up against with the original. Bit heavier, hmm?

Russell Morris - The Real Thing

My mother put me on to this only today. I insist on music when I work so I brought up youtube and told my mother to pick a band any band. Nice choice if I do say so my self.

If you're lucky I might show you who my mother thinks is spunky. - And thats a quote.

The Church - Unguarded Moment

I did this for a music assignment in year 9! - With the majority of the work done by my much more deserving partner! I had completely forgotten about them but yesterday they came on the radio and ofcourse I had to know them! - And I did. It was the 'girls with daggers for eyes' - I always liked that bit.

The Kinks, eh?

You would have really got me going too.


Oh! The irony! What wilderness have I wondered into? And, more to the point, when did it become so enjoyable?

... It has always been enjoyable.

But, why, oh, why must my sarcasm for the most go quite un-noticed? (it wasnt sarcasm above) But, for the most part I shall be terribely sarcastic and only one person ever gets any of it and even then I think they're hoping with all their might that Im not being sincere. So, from time to time, to help them realise my sarcastic tone I start abusing them. But, of course, its sarcastic and so as long as they realise that, its fine. Otherwise, though, I dont have much of a hope. Why don't I have friends, again?

It really does annoy me. (the sarcasm buissness - Ive given up with friends) God, I love Bush. Oh, was I being sarcastic? I really couldn't tell!

And, just for good measure:


Hhhmmm. Why do I say "hmmm"?

I swear a couple months ago I read this in the comments:

"wow! my names lola and i love this song! i bet all the lolas out there - inluding me - love this song! - its so great!"

or something along those lines.

I don't think she (*smiles* or maybe he?) listened to the lyrics!

Sample, meistro? (sorry I don't have a clue how to spell it)

'Girls will be boys and boys will be girls'

need more?

howabout:

'But I know what I am and man Im a man and so's Lola'

I think that's clear enough, no?

The Bathroom Scene

A brilliant movie to say the least. (If not the acting!)

Japenese Beatles Tribute Band

Miki, this proves forever how cool your country is! The counting was pure genius, man!

... Bit of a problem with the prenounciation, though!

Grim.

Last week, in the midst of exams, I had a conversation that was grim to say the least. Really, it was morbid. To the point where I brought out a point I had contemplated (and believe is true) before: We are all in the process of dying. (Which is really just ageing which no one contends with.) But why, oh why, should we have to think about this? It makes everything rather pointless, really. I refuse to be totaly pointless although conceed for the most I am.

Ever think about how artists are like luxuary items? I have. It's sad. Global warming and other environmental problems, they're boom time politics (it does seem). Notice how since the recession (oh! come off it! As far as Im concerned its been an unofficial recession since the start of the year and all it took was those two - or maybe three not sure- consecutive quatres. I think that even though the senate in the US passed that bill thingo - it still has to go through the reps which is more than abit back to front for EVERYONE else - it will stop the US from a depression but I think the economic cylce is the economic cycle for a reason and at best a slight recession has already begun.) No one cares about global warming or 'being green' half as much when they carn't afford to pay off their mortgage. Its sad becasue the issue (global warming) is no less pressing because of an economic crisis.
All in all: grim.

But what everyone has to remember: what on earth do I know? Not much, that I know. Sos, when you feel terribly indiginant because everything I have said is wrong and want to shoot me, then remember! What do I know?

Jealous Guy

I love this song, man! If anyone was to say this was shit (oh, and im sure they're out there, the fascist bastards!) then I think I would cry. Or devour them. Maybe both. This song is my favourite song. Ever. Ever ever ever ever ever!

I was having real trouble finding out what it was (my fav song) and then this came on. It make me sad, squeezes my heart untill I feel like I, myself, am in the deepest throwes of sorrow. When, in reality, all he is saying is sorry. It moves me and I play it over and over again on the piano. In music I play it whenever I get a moment. This is so that one person finaly commented:

'So you like that song, then?'

Do you think? But, biting back the rushing torrent of sarcasm I simply claimed:

'I love it.'

And I do.

Angie - The Rolling Stones

You know how it is. You put something in, then you click the related list. Sometimes I forget how moving this song is. I'm quickly reminded.

Oh! This may also help a friend realise I in no way meant what I seemed to say. In no way whatsoever are the Rolling Stones substandard. (Talk about blasphemy?) The poems I was talking about, on the other hand, arent exactly to anyones standard. Definitely not yours, Oh My Lovely Officialy Publisher.

Paint it Black - The Rolling Stones

It's just so lovely! - How awesome is the sitar?

It Was All Very Yay

I got a guitar on Monday!
It was all very yay.
Now I have a beautiful guitar to spend two sublime weeks with... once my fingers have gotten over the whole calluse situation, that is. This is new to me since you never have to be any kind of sores from playing the piano. - It's just not needed! I've only ever had a writer's bump (I'm very proud of it) and so having my fingers all ggrrr will be different, yet worth it. I had always intended just to do the whole chord strumming thingo. Just so I had some accompinament (I love spelling) for my terrible (although I do know all the words) singing. But. I found this very old classical guitar instruction booke and it is almost as yay as the guitar. ... it would be terribly oh... if there was no guitar, though. So, I can now play individual notes. Go me!
Please, remember that I have only had it for two days.
I'm allowed extreme hype over small irespective things like this untill the end of the week. I intend to use it to my full advantage.
I can also play Am, Em, C, D, E and A major chords. Definitely go me.
I intend to take my guitar everywhere I can. It will be my very musical baby. Has a baby ever sounded so good? Not since the last guitar baby.
