Just an old friend coming over now to visit you and
That's what I've become
I let myself in though I know I'm not supposed to but
I never know when I'm done

Third Eye Blind. How exactly I forgot my undeniable #1 favourite song of all time (Semi-Charmed Life), I have no idea but I'm kicking myself for it, especially since so many of my top 20 are also from 3EB. Such as Blinded, the glorious running interlude in today's entry.

And I see you fogging up the mirror
Vapor 'round your body glistens in the shower
And I want to stay right here and go down on you for an hour
Or stay, and let the day just fade away
In wild dedication, take the moment of hope
And let it run, and never look back at all the damage we have done now
To each other

But when I see you, it's like I'm staring down the sun
And I'm blinded
There's nothing left to do
Still I see you

So I'm fully studying Extamurally with Massey now. BA with Media Studies major. Taking 2 Accounting papers and one Marketing paper because there's only one actual Media paper available to me this semester, so I figured I'd make up the four with things that would be both useful and familiar. It's working pretty well so far, except the money side of things. Since the DICT course with Ucol fell through, I'm not eligible for Student Allowance, unless I take it to the Ministry of Education (MOE - they sound awesome already!), which could potentially wind up with me getting some form of giant refund on my Loan.

I never believed that things they happen for a reason and
They never go as planned
I wanted to thank you for a vision that was lost that you returned but
You're past where you understand

Now her appetite is blown, little else is known
Except she's a little angry, grabs a towel and looks away
And heat fades with the day
And I fall down on what to say,
Oh something clean, let me be clever
Hey oh well whatever
But that's not what I mean,
When where we've been has left us burned
Still I won't turn now from a fight, you know I'll never win

Social life is going great, on the other hand. Been hanging out with "Crazy Eyes" Jimmy Rouk quite a bit lately, and we finally got around to turning all those polystirene crates that have been littering my house and yard into something useful... All shall be revealed with a crash in time. Sam had a death in the family and now his equilibrium's been thrown way off (ear infection, I guess) but he's been around as well, went and grabbed some brekkie at McCafe this morning. Been seeing a bit more of Moni since her bday, which is all gravy. Jarrod had a friend from his course over and figured we should go for some glorious Eight Player Mario Kart on Friday night... Apparently we're cursed to only ever have Seven people at any given time. Oh well, 'twas a good night, and finally I got an audience for The Aristocrats, so now when I say things like "He was a Long Shoreman, arms like Popeye", I'm not the only one laughing.

So when I see you, you know all the things I've done
Well I'm blinded
Like I'm staring down the sun
When I see you
It's like I'm staring down the sun

Time passes and it tell us what we're left with
We become the things we do
Me I'm a fool, spent from defiance, yeah you got me but
I didn't give up on you

The BadHorse Video Awards are rolling through again. Apparently they've really stepped up a notch this year - thousands of dollars in prizes, talk of going national, needing clearance for music (I have to assume this is new, since otherwise they'd have to disqualify last year's winner)... So I've been busy thinking. So far we've got a few Deathmatches and Mockumentaries, as well as A Scorpion in the Eye and George Lucas Attacks, as well as an edited-down version of the Search for Jimmy, all ready to be entered (since there's no limit as Tineke's Cajun proved last year). Still, I want to absolutely storm this thing, so doubtlessly the ICE team of Wanganui will be out and about making some brand new features!

The actual Show Night is November 19th this year, so mark it in your calendars! I have a feeling we'll at least take out Best Animated Video and Strangest Video (possibly both from A Scorpion in The Eye!)

Well that's it from me for now. I'll be back some time, after getting a bunch of work done, I imagine!

Icarus is not a tee shirt or a swan song, no
He is born again and it's not easy being me
But I can't promise I will mend or bend
When you believe that we are fixed now from our birth
And I've just fallen back to earth
Still you know I'll try again
'Cause I believe that we are lucky
We are golden we have stolen manners
In the days when we were one

So when I see you, despite all that we've become
Still I'm blinded
But I'm still staring down the sun
