Frida-y


I'll talk a bit about last night before anything else.At about 8,we headed over to someone's house for a kind of small gathering-I only knew one person there,and if there's one thing I've learned it's that if people are from a different wavelength and chances of connecting are too slim,I've become one to let it be,enjoy myself and not try to hard.There was homemade lasagne and seafood salad,small talk about the movie playing on tv and just laying back on the grey futon for a long time.Then 4 of us headed off to Lavish,a place I had heard heaps about but never actually visited-it was packed as hell,with plenty of snobbish-looking Asian girls who pass off self-agrandizing little stares as if they're club royalty everyone secretly wishes to rape.But it's a club,so you learn to enjoy yourself and let others do what they do and act however you want.And when the night finally ended,it was all goooood.

Was a bit bored while waiting for my turn to shower yesterday,so took out an onion from the kitchen cabinet and started taking pictures of it.Yes,very random.On a lighter note,Photomouth updated with a couple of less random pics.
Rarely do I manage to find some really,really,really good songs all at once-they usually come in small numbers but yesterday I took in recommendations from some friends,some music mags and started on a downloading craze-and,no kidding,the songs below have done nothing but fucking amazed me over and over again.
Kaiser Chiefs-Ruby
Jamie T-Shiela
Chk Chk Chk-Sweet Life
The Wreckers-The Good Kind
Weezer-Sweater Song
The Klaxons-Golden Skans
Mew-156
Ghosts-Stay The Night
Modest Mouse-Dramamine
Rogue Wave-Eyes*
*Great song,but the band comes off as a poor imitation of Death Cab.Listen to Death Cab for the real thing.
I'm not a huge fan of the Kaiserchiefs,some of their songs are just terribly annoying (Everyday I love you less and less,Na na na) but they do have some awesome songs (I predict a riot) and Ruby's one of the best songs i've heard in a long time.Been listening to a lot of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah-they have the kind of great songs most enjoyable when they're played at full volume.Yes,full volume-no less than temporary eardrum damage and head-numbing heights.

A day left for Easter.
Don't let the petty stuff get to you.
Love and forgive.
Be yourself,let noone make you feel any less a person.
