Exams are officially over!!! Proud to say that I did my best with the time I had...now its just a simple matter of waiting for the dreaded results..Started the holidays with a bang!! Yesterday had a paintball session at Bottle Tree Park..got shot in my neck and my thigh, both which hurt like fuck. Went home to shower and change and went down to Zouk to meet Hazzy to watch AARRRRRRRRR. Nope, nothing to do with pirates but THE ALL-AMERICAN REJECTS!!!
They performed Swing, Swing, Move Along, Dirty Little Secret and of course their new hit: Gives You Hell...
I totally forgot how to sing along to Swing, Swing!!! So embarrassing cause I must have deleted the song from my mp3/laptop a long time ago...anyway, it really reminded me of lower secondary days..
And now this song kinda suits my feelings these few weeks..
The All-American Rejects
The All-American Rejects
Swing, Swing
Days swiftly come and go
I'm dreaming of her
She's seeing other guys
Emotions they stir
The sun is gone
The nights are long
And I am left while the tears fall
Did you think that I would cry
On the phone?
Do you know what it feels like
Being alone?
I'll find someone new
Swing, swing, swing
From the tangles of
My heart is crushed By a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again?
Dreams cast into the sky
I'm moving on
Sweet beginnings do arise
She knows I was wrong
The notes are old
They bend, they fold
And so do I to a new love
Did you think that I would cry
On the phone?
Do you know what it feels like
Being alone?
I'll find someone new
Swing, swing, swing
From the tangles of
My heart is crushed
By a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again?
Bury me
(You thought your problems were gone)
Carry me
(Away, away, away)
Swing, swing, swing
From the tangles of
My heart is crushed
By a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again?
The All-American Rejects
Swing, Swing
Days swiftly come and go
I'm dreaming of her
She's seeing other guys
Emotions they stir
The sun is gone
The nights are long
And I am left while the tears fall
Did you think that I would cry
On the phone?
Do you know what it feels like
Being alone?
I'll find someone new
Swing, swing, swing
From the tangles of
My heart is crushed By a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again?
Dreams cast into the sky
I'm moving on
Sweet beginnings do arise
She knows I was wrong
The notes are old
They bend, they fold
And so do I to a new love
Did you think that I would cry
On the phone?
Do you know what it feels like
Being alone?
I'll find someone new
Swing, swing, swing
From the tangles of
My heart is crushed
By a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again?
Bury me
(You thought your problems were gone)
Carry me
(Away, away, away)
Swing, swing, swing
From the tangles of
My heart is crushed
By a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again?

Exams...frigging stressed like fuck...I can't even remember simple things like how to turn on my laptop...Just this morning I got out of bed and sat down at me desk and all I did was keep tapping my keyboard, expecting my laptop to turn on. When it didn't I started banging at it in frustration until I realised I had to press the power button...Even my emotions are boiling in a froth and spilling over..quite unusual for me to be unable to control them...I became really unreasonable with someone a couple of nights ago and now I really regret it..wish I hadn't said those things...
My hormones aren't doing good either..they're going all haywire and I really want to get settled on something..its been bugging me for at least a few months now...sigh..in fact the bugging has turned into violent shaking and shoving..There's a voice in my head that keeps asking me: "So how? So how? Made up your mind? Should you or should you not?"
Its killing me, yet I don't want to die. Just yet.

Well you dawned on me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I meltedI fell right through the cracks and I'm tryin to get back
Before the cool done run out I'll be givin it my bestest
And nothin's gonna stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some
I won't hesitate no more
No more it can not wait: I'm yours
The dawn is breaking, a light shining through
You're barely waking and I'm tangled up in you
Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love
Listen to the music of the moment maybe sing with me
I like peaceful melodies
It's your god forsaken right to be loved loved loved
I'm open, you're closed
Where I'll follow you'll go
I worry I won't see your face light up again
Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
(I'm sure, there no need to)
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
(Locate our time is short, this is our fate)
I somehow find you and I (I'm yours) collide
I can't stand to fly, I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find the better part of me
I'm more than a bird
I'm more than a plane
I'm more than some pretty face beside a train
And it's not easy to be me
Was it not enough stimulation
If I had break the other day
Just when I thought that I'm okay
Didn't like my conversation
I can't come up with something new
It doesn't really matter what I do
So here's my observation
You could never see it through my eyes
And I'm too tired to try
I was lost and alone trying to grow
Making my way down that long winding road
Had no reason, no rhyme
Like a song out of time
And there you were standing in front of my eyes
How could I be such a fool
To let go of love and break all of the rules
Girl when you walked out that door
Left a hole in my heart
And now I know for sure
I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby and I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight: I'm yours
(So don't lie and say you're over me)
Don't nothing, I'm always getting over you
I was lost and alone
But you're still on my lonely mind
It cannot wait, I'm yours
I can't stand to fly
Finally find, you and I collide
I'm just out to find
You finally find, you and I collide
You finally find, you and I collide
Its funny how we listen to some songs just for the beat, tempo or music and we sing along with other songs with so much passion, as if we're speaking to another person. Lyrics don't mean anything to anyone until that we are able to relate to the words. Sometimes I feel like singing to people instead of speaking because speech can mean nothing; like an unwilling artist painting something just for the sake of painting. Singing on the other hand, opens up a whole new dimension to communication. They say music is another language all together and I totally agree. Music can move you, make you cry, make you excited, make you motivated. Languages help us speak out what we really feel and want to say. Combine these two and we get two languages with so much potential to convey everything the heart wants to say and feel.
Close your eyes and listen to the world, because your eyes deceive you. Magic tricks never deceive your ears do they?
