After enrollment today, had lunch with Wednesday, Jellybean and Bootychic. Wednesday gave out her invitation for her wedding which is at the end of the month. Its good to be invited but i wasn't expecting it. Also, found out that Jellybean would be heading down the aisle next year. Of course, I was sort of surprised but not really caring here...They all gave me you-were-there-when-we-were-talking-about-it!!! faces.
It has come to mind after sharing in the joy that is their wedding, "What do people get married for these days anyway?" It seems to me that the tradition is to wed because the girl's preggers. Somehow, I'd have to give credit to Wednesday for going against the norm and not getting knocked up. Wasn't there a time when people actually had a ceremony because of mad desire? Impending doom or okay, blackmail? I miss those days...had more drama.
Oh, and the couples that we spent most of the time talking about over lunch with cringe and disbelief are: 1)Nora Aunor getting married to her lesbian manager and 2) Joey De Leon with Lolit Solis??? (Hindi nga.) Bootychic was so revolted by the idea, it made her teary! Mwahahaha.
So, anyways, here's a song I am so loving now and its just in my head, ringing. Endlessly. The Manics were never really known for a straight-up-happy-day-tune (a bandmember disappeared mysteriously in 1995, never found) but this song makes my head bob.
Your love alone - is not enough not enough not enough
When times get tough they get tough they get tough they get tough
Trade all your heroes in for ghosts in for ghosts in for ghosts
They're always the ones that love you most love you most love you most
Your love alone - is not enough not enough not enough
It's what you felt it's what you said what you said what you said
You said the sky would fall on you fall on you fall on you
Through all the pain your eyes stayed Blue they stayed Blue Baby Blue
But your love alone won't save the world
You knew the secret of the universe
Despite it all you made it worse
It left you lonely it left you cursed
You stole the sun straight from my heart from my heart from heart
With no excuses just fell apart fell apart fell apart
No you won't make a mess of me mess of me mess of me
For you're as blind as a man can be man can be man can be
I could have seen for miles and miles
I could have made you feel alive
I could have placed us in exile
I could have shown you how to cry
Your love alone is not enough
Your love alone is not enough
