Ice cream and hot dogs

Well college is out and just about everyone has gone home and those who live here are starting to go away... so there's very few left now. I know i haven't posted anything for ages, but i just haven't been able to find any motivation - my life story. I've been a bit moody of late, i think it's because everyone is away and i'm still goin uni and when everyone leaves Cooranbong there aint much to do at all! Plus, the parents are still working so i'm getting "bored-at-home-alone" syndrome. Only so much that you can watch on only two fuzzy television stations.

Are you familiar with any Anastasia songs? Now, just wait before you go and laugh. If you listen to some of her lyrics, their really good! And they just seem to suit my moods at the moment. Particularly her songs Welcome to my Truth

Sentimental days
In a misty clouded haze
Of a memory that now feels untrue
I used to feel disguised
Now I leave the mask behind
Painting pictures that aren't so blue
The pages I've turned are the lessons I've learned

Chorus:
Somebody bring up the lights I want you to see
(Don't You Feel Sorry For Me)
My life turned around
But I'm still living my dreams
(Yes it's true I've been)
I've been through it all
I´ve hit about a million walls
Welcome to my truth.. I still love
Welcome to my truth.. I still love

Tangled in a web
With a pain hard to forget
That was a time that I've now put to rest
Oh, the pages I've turned are the lessons I've learned


Even her song "Sexy Single" is basically saying that it is perfectly fine to be single (just tried to find a link to it, you have no idea how hard it is...) also "Rearview" i really like.

Anyway, it's 11.19pm at night and i'm tired so if i start rambling, just deal with it! :o) Why does these songs suit my moods? I really am not sure, their about love and relationship.

I really like "I´ve hit about a million walls, Welcome to my truth.. I still love.." from welcome to my truth, cause i can deffinately say i've hit millions of walls and have learnt to get up and keep on living, i think we can all identify with that one. I see relationships everywhere around me, and it's funny how an "outsider" can see whether it will work, why or why not, what the problems are but when it's you you can't seem to tell. If i can find lyrics for both those other two songs i'll just paste them here.

Rearview:
Ohhh.. Ohh..

I use to tell myself that you would wait
I borrowed time for two and I twisted fate
I left us floating in the air for the wind to hold on to
It let me down it let you go

I drive around like everything's okay
And I feel the lightening in our own mistakes
And I was gonna tell you
I wish all our wrongs could be right
I'm too late
I looked in my rearview
And now I don't see you

Sometimes the things you want are hard to take
Sometimes the ones you love are risks you don't make, yeah
The dust has settled into nothingness
and I yearn for yesterday
Just look around
I'm still the same

I drive around like everything's okay
like everything's okay
And I feel the lightening in our own mistakes
and I was gonna tell you
I wish all our wrongs could be right
I'm too late
I looked in my rearview
And now I don't see you

So many things that we didn't say
So many reasons the world's not the same
Oh, it's not the same

I drive around like nothing here has changed
But I know the sky has one more cloud to break
And I was gonna tell you
I wish all our wrongs could be right
I'm too late
I looked in my rearview
And now I don't see you

I said I
I drive and everything has changed
ohh..
and I feel the lightening it's in my own mistakes
and I was gonna tell you
I wish all our wrongs could be right
I'm too late
I looked in my rearview
and now I don't see you

I used to tell myself
that you
would wait



Sexy Single:
All my life I've tried to find
A love to give me piece of mind
And I, I looked into your eyes
Captivated by your wicked smile
I was mesmerized there
for a while or two
But what's a girl gonna do?

Oh I lay in my bed
with your stupid face in my head
Just another piece in my life
Now I'm a sexy single
Sexy single that's OK
I'm living on my own
And I'm feeling the way I do
Like a sexy single
Sexy single

Birds of a feather
We flock together
Like leaves on a tree
We were meant to be in love
I guess it was just a dream

Oh I lay in my bed
with your stupid face in my head
Just another piece in my life
Sexy single
Sexy single that's OK
I'm living on my own in my special way
Like a sexy single
Sexy single
I'm sexy single
Sexy single
Sexy single

I said I'm living on my own
And feeling the way I do
When I'm not with you

I said I'm sexy single
That's OK
Living on my own
And feeling the way I do
I said when I'm not with you

Sexy single that's OK
I'm living on my own in my special way
Like a sexy single
Sexy single


Well there you go, make what you want of those lyrics but they connect with me. Maybe to be continued one day... maybe not too.. :o)

    i'm not a relationship "outsider" for the first time in my life and quite intentionally, i might add. i have taken a break from the continuous stream of romances i've had since i was an adolescent. i am currently in the longest "unattached" period of my life and i'm learning so much about ME and i'm learning to enjoy the freedom of my own company and to use the emotional energy and focus i've alwasy directed toward dating to other arenas. i will go back to "coupledom" someday but right now i'm enjoying the sabatical immensely!

    I'm enjoying being single at the moment, sometimes relationship are more work than they are worth. I agree, when you've had time to really get to know who you are and are comfortable with the person you are then you are more "ready" for a relationship.

    well... i have been in that kind of a stage for ages... i have actually been comfortable with myself but i think it would be fun to hae someone special to share things with. single isn't the bad thing that people make it out to be though. there are too many insecure people who fear singledom just because they don't know how to cope with their thoughts and feelings on their own.

    have fun in cooranbong!!! only three more months till we all come back... although you aren't going to be there for all of that... it isn't so bad... you have summer camp to look forward to!!

    I think i'm comfortable with who i am. The only thing is, that i've had a few "not soo nice" boyfriends in the past and i'm rather worried i guess you'd say about entering into a new relationship. I mean, i don't want to set myself up to get hurt or "played". But i guess time shall tell!
