Foo Fighters @ MindSay

And I wonder when I sing along with you,
If everything could ever feel this real forever?
If anything could ever be this good again?

The only thing I'll ever ask of you--
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when.

Everlong - Foo Fighters


I've somewhat been avoiding writing.  Partly cuz I wasn't sure if I wanted to leave off from this site again or from lack of courage/interest/etc. 

I saw the whole thing involving the mindsay user who invented lives, deaths and the such and frankly I'm not surprised at that.  This is after all the internet and when it comes to people writing about their lives, you have to take things with a shot of vodka.

What really surprised me was how some people could be shocked that anyone would lie about these kinds of things.  In the world that we live in, it's sadly something that should be expected.  I knew a lot of different people on here before but never met a single soul.  Sometimes I doubt even the people who I talked to a lot are honest about what they write.  As those who knew that psycho-sayer found out, even if other people say that they have met or know each other in real life and can validate the things being said, those others can just as easily be faked people.

And yeah, it's already been blown over but who cares anyways.  I just wanted to write a small piece on it in avoidance of other issues.


I don't remember where it was I heard the idea that people have many "the ones."  They denounced the notion that there is a single soul mate for everyone considering that there are 6 billion people in the world, the chances that you'll be near that person is probably astronomical.  Sure, people may argue that this is where fate steps in and puts the two of you close but to me, that sort of says that you have no choice in things.

So instead, a person has many "the one;" a person who completes us in a way that most others can't.  Although I think sometimes you meet a person who may well be "the one" but it just isn't the time yet.  That's where the whole "if you love em let em go" comes into effect.

Now, this concerns me in the way that while I have been seeing a girl (note that I didn't say dating), I don't really feel like pursuing anything further with her.  At the same time I've been showing interest or actually asking other girls out all the same.  But all the while I know that there's no real long-term interest because so far my heart still goes out to one girl who I'm holding out for until it's hopeless (although some others would say it's been hopeless).

To me, she feels like the one and since I'm not really concerned with getting into a serious relationship, I'm content to just wait and while I'm waiting, looking for a bit of side action.

Which is funny (not really) cuz there's one girl who I had met who isn't the type of girl I would usually be attracted to but since I can get a lil play, I don't care much.  The bad thing (I guess) is that I treat her exactly like a play toy, there for my amusement and when I'm not in the mood to do much I show lil interest in her.  She still gets with me when I call though so in a way I've got a booty call.

I'm not sure what I'm gonna do later on.  I don't really feel guilty much, surprisingly, even with how I treat her.  Which I'm being careful in not saying exactly how o_O  It's more with the instances of what occurred during the play than anything bad-bad.  And just that the only time I call her is when I'm interested in play.  So yeah.

I'm still keeping my options open...though I'm still hoping for things to work out. 

Later days.

Bored?  Watch these with me!

Too bad it's bedtime, otherwise I'd get to keep exploring Youtube and its many gems. 

Feeder mini-tour at the end of May, yes yes yes. Excitement. At the moment only three dates have been announced, Northumbria Uni, Brighton Concorde II and Manchester Uni, kind of spread out over seven days so there's strong rumours of more dates to be added.

Regardless, I'll be going to the Brighton one, thinking of road-tripping it with FFSers Chloe and Eli, which could be fun. Either way, the best part is, it's a small venue tour, which is awesome in itself and will probably be the last chance I get to see them in a small venue.

Also on a gigs note, Marina finally gave my money to Ros for the Foo Fighters tickets (well, she claims to) so my name should definitely be on those now. Still pondering over my list of who to take - Emi's thrown her name into the hat now, so she joins Chloe and James from FFS, Christine, and Alan (although I think Alan is seeing Iron Maiden at Twickenham that day). We'll see.

At the moment I'm uploading Feeder albums to send to Kei (at her request, obviously... it's not like me to force music on people ;) ) and it's taking bloody ages, even with our new Sky router which is hardly any more effective than our last one. Pah. I'll leave it sending over night.

Two days til the weekend, hurrah...

Miss You, a new song by Feeder, is the shit. I'm sorry, there's no better way to put it. It's awesome. And it's available for free download at www.feederweb.com.

 

Um, what have I to say? I'm definitely seeing Foo Fighters at Wembley in June now, after a friend of a friend's girlfriend decided to sell her tickets. I went for it and hopefully it'll pay off.

 

Went to the south coast on Friday, was awesome to be back there. Work's the same as ever, and I'm really looking forward to August.

 

I'm semi-planning a trip around Europe during the three-week break between finishing work and moving into my new house. Hopefully I'll have saved up a bit of spare money to afford it - although I hear it's rarely as expensive as you might expect. I might do it for charity aswell.

 

Been helping out Meph with his 'big project', which has actually taken up the most of my last couple of evenings, putting together lsits and crap doesn't sound like much, but getting the info is the hard part.

 

I miss you.
