I'm currently eating a chicken burger, and it's soo nice. Grilled chicken, with lettuce, red onion, tomato, mayonnaise, and sweet chilli. Very tasty, and healthy.

I've drunk a bit too much this week. Last night I spent over $30 on alcohol. I think getting drunk before you go out makes a lot more sense - it's cheaper and you actually notice when you're feeling it, unlike in clubs where the atmosphere mucks up your senses anyway. But I was celebrating anyway.. I got my tax back! $420 on Friday.. and I've already spent $250, fuck. But I did buy a nice handbag I'd always wanted, picked up a layby, and got some gym pants. I am so going to the gym tomorrow.

So I'm listening to my Michelle Branch CD.. it's really good, and it's really growing on me moreso. The song Goodbye to You.. obviously written about someone. Why am I always attracted to songs that mean something. But this one is a positive song. It's inspirational and beautiful.

Of all the things
I've believed in
I just want to
Get it over with
Tears form behind my eyes
But I do not cry
Counting the days
That pass me by
I've been searching
Deep down in my soul
Words that I'm hearing
Are starting to get old
It feels like
I'm starting all over again
The last three years
Were just pretend
And I said

"Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything
I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that
I tried to hold on to"

I still get lost in your eyes
And it seems that
I can't live a day without you
Closing my eyes and
You chase my thoughts away
To a place where
I am blinded by the light
But it's not right

Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything
I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that
I tried to hold on to

And it hurts to want everything
And nothing at the same time
I want what's yours
And I want what's mine
I want you
But I'm not giving in this time

Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything
I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that
I tried to hold on to
The one thing that
I tried to hold on to

And when the stars fall
I will lie awake
You're my shooting star

So I guess she's singing about someone she loved, and thought she knew. But everything turned out to be pretend. Even though she still loves him, she is telling herself that it was all a huge lie. He's no longer a true part of her life, and never really was.
