I heard that if you're going through tough times you should make a list of things that make you happy. So that's exactly what I'm gonna do.
Thing that make me happy at the moment:
-
Apartment Story by The National. The lyrics are just so spot on right now.
Oh we’re so disarming darling, everything we did believe
Is diving diving diving diving off the balcony
Tired and wired we ruin too easy
Sleep in our clothes and wait for winter to leave
Hold ourselves together with our arms around the stereo for hours
While it sings to itself or whatever it does
When it sings to itself of its long lost loves
I’m getting tired, I’m forgetting why
- Kevin Drew's Spirit If...
- Liz Isenberg
- The Smiths' Rubber Ring
- 60s pop like The Ronettes, The Shangi-Las and Lesley Gore
- Dancing to The Royal We's self-titled album
- Dylan Thomas' Under Milk Wood
- High Fidelity
- New Gilmore Girls episodes (Rory's listening to the Decemberists!!)
- Finally getting The Science Of Sleep on DVD after about a year of waiting for it to come out
- Stupif German casting shows and the 'lyrics' of the 'songs' they have ('If you wanna please me better get on your knees!')
- I've made a lot of new friends who're absolutely insane and ridiculously fun
- Some of my teacher like me, other tell me I'm 'brilliant' =)
- Exams are going better than I thought
- The themes of some of the subjects are much more fun than last year
- My new black and white 60s style coat that I got for free (my mother brought it from Norway 'cause she thought I'd like it)
- New favourite shirt that has 3 things I love about clothes: 1. It's checked 2. It'a black and white 3. It's got what I call a 'priest collar'
Wanna see?
(that's not my room btw, it's our hallway, I'm not into beige at all lol)
(figured I looked to emo, so this one's a bit ridiculous)
- Yummy readymade pizza
- My paper cranes (for the sick Decemberist) arriving in the US safely
- Walking through my town at night and finding it much nicer than by day
- My cute cuddly kitty cat
Basically that's just a distraction. What I really wanna do is curl up in a corner and sleep 'til everything falls into it's right place again.
