bun bun ba ba dun na na

Not one more word tonight
between here and there
We'll put a distance the size of the ocean
so now this heart can beat
a skipping rhythm
As the cadence carries me
I almost drift away
far enough to forget
but when it comes you cannot hesitate
and when found i will write
an account and seal it in an envelope
addressed to your last known residence

Whoaaaa.
whoa - oh - oh - ah - ohhh
woah - oh - oh - ah - ohhhhh
woah - oh - oh - ohhhhhh

And we sink, and we drown
and what is lost can never be found
well these arms did swim,
until the lungs pulled in
panic was lost in a deep understanding
that you will see what is
wrong with everything
what is wrong with you and me
they make all the right
reasons to fuck it up
you're gonna fuck it up

Whoaaaa.
whoa - oh - oh - ah - ohhh
woah - oh - oh - ah - ohhhhh
woah - oh - oh - ohhhhhh

Here's to be being happy

so the last well 6 weeks i guess have been an up and down ride but mostly down, so here it is...

im not going to be an emo douche anymore,
this weekend i had alot of fun with some really good friends, many whom are quite new as well and its just made me realise being all down an out about shit is a waste of time,
i'm loving my work at the moment,
i'm loving the people im hanging out with at the moment,
and i mos def am loving the house i live in and the residents i share it with,
so no more downer day's only fun and good time's

thanks to all those who came out with me on the weekend, and i know not everyone could s no hard feelings to those who didnt come out, sucks enough that you missed the rage'r that it was!

i just guess that if i can work all day in a busy arse pub after smashing back drinks for around 10 hours and on 2 hours sleep with very little food, and still have fun with it all, i can ignore the shitty stuff and not let it get to me at the worst of times

special thanks to coup troy zac colm drew mikey caitlin daria violet alex fob dave alyce shannon alex amanda for being happy companions this weekend

oah by the way hot fuzz, seriously one of the best comedies of all time, goes down awesome after along day with pizza and friends

long week end

so its Monday night and I'm stoned and drunk in bed, lets rewind...

MONDAY....
drew and Tina we're over, Tina was annoying as all hell and drew kept apologising for her but its 'like dude its cool, that's what she's like'
rewind
we went down the rosemount for pizza and a pint was good we just chilled and talked was nice just to go out as the 4 boys(zac troy coup and myself)
rewind
coup troy and i sitting at home drinking wristys and smoking pot, zac got home from scotto.
rewind
went to the rosemount to ask about keg hire prices and the kitchen was closed so we went home planning to go to the scotto to meet zac
rewind
troy and i sat on the net looking for keg hire prices for a party we ant to throw, whilst i cleaned my room and did washing and cleaned the house a tinsy bit
rewind
woke up hell late and sat in bed for ages discovered this amazing new comic, whilst thinking about Sunday night.

Rewind to Sunday night after work...

got on the train to freo, its long but the conversation between tara and myself as well as troy is really good and its never quiet to long or boring,

got off the train in freo talked to some people found the fly by night club after forgetting how to get there, got our entry stamps then went to the Norfolk for drinks before the drones got to the stage, we had really good pizza and convo all night had 2 pints of james squire, good decent beer, and enjoyed the Autumn night in the amazing beer garden they have their, probably the only nice pub in fremantle.

the drones set is amazing we missed the support band which i am slightly unhappy about but i got to spend the night with tara and troy so it more than compensates, its been a good night and once again the drones played amazingly, 16 straws was destroying beautiful, and the opener nail it down was classic heavy dark 'drones'.
but tara has been weird all night, i know we are not together any more but we are meant to be friends, every time i drunkenly lean to close she makes a super obvious lean away and i understand that but does it have to be so.. well obvious i guess, it sucks, i like her, i miss her, and i cant help that, feeling just don't go away
plus we have so much fun together just as friends, i don't see why it shouldn't be more, its fucked... and i guess its kind fucked because i cant let those feelings go and should just except that we are friends but hell, i know im the type of guy that needs to be in a relationship, and i just want to be in a relationship with some one i like and get on with, i guess im scared that there wont be some one else after her, but i guess i just have to let that all go and move on....

randomly saw gene(different gene) at the end of the drones gig in freo, himself and mel offered us all a lift home from the show, and even thought the whole night had been fun i could feel tara pulling away in the car sending me subliminal msg's of distaste. i asked if she wanted me to walk home with her from loftus i know she doesn't live far but i felt i was only being friendly and tried not to be pushy, i understand that friendship is the bench mark and i do try to stop there with her and feel bad if i do something that goes to far, but i could see she thought i was trying to go home with her so i layed off.......

.... meh.... confused!!!!!!

so other than that i worked all weekend

oah except for an outrages friday after work

6AM Bitch's!!!!
hahaha thanks to caitlin daria violet and mikey for the fun times hahaha fuckin random...

This is a test post from , a fancy photo sharing thing.

RANT: the other half of the human species

fuck i would like to say I'm over women, once and for all t be able to say that and mean it would be such a relief in my life,

but i know at the same time it would create such a void,

i know males and females will never see eye to eye, i know we think differently and have different moral sensibility's but it just seems like ever since i got back to Australia and became single again back in feb 08, all i have done is create trouble for my self with the opposite half of our species,

i know I'm not the best guy in the world but i try, and every time i make a decision i feel at the time it is best for everyone involved,

i care for those i can, and maybe to much so, and maybe i am drawn to the wrong women in the first place, but i try, and i fall head over heels over and over again, only to land on my own face down in the mud,

every time with for-site i can truly say that i look back and see that it was my fault in some way or another.


it scares me, that the people i want to be with seem not to want to be with me, when my dad was my age he was married, now that didn't end well but at least he had found some one willing to marry him, and with my brother at my age, he was in the middle of a 3 year relationship,

these days I'm lucky if i still have a female friend from that long ago let alone a partner for a couple of months,

i don't mean do be a downer or sound sorry for my self, coz in alot of ways I'm not, and in other way's I'm just not aloud to be, i enjoy my life, but sometimes i just think things could be a little easier, a little more comforting

i guess with whats gone on around me the last week in my own and in several of my friends lives, the fickleness of relationships has come to the front of my vision, and i just want to remind everyone, including myself to not take relationships (sexual or just friendships) for granted

good people are hard to come by, so i know for sure right now that even with out a good girl by my side I'm defiantly lucky to have as many good friends around as i do

peace love and respect to all those close to me,

vinyl

so after a day of spending much money, hanging out with good friends listening to good music, and of course buying more vinyl in one day than i have in the last year.

We and by we i mean myself and my housemate have come to the conclusion, that cd's are obsolete and vinyl is the only way to buy music,
with the amount of digital downloads/ burning of cd's/ and just general throwing of cd's to friends for them to rip, cds just dont seem reasonable,
you get the exact same quality of music and sound from cd as you do from a half decent download, and cd's are harder to find and get a hold of than a download is. it inevitable vinyl is making a come back and its here to stay,
you get a different sound, you get unreleased special vinyl only tracks, art work is of a decent size and you can actually look at it and appreciate it way more, and any decent size poster you get from a cd has so many folds in it its unusable.
they are the same price as cd's and just way cooler, the only problem with vinyl is having a decent record player, but then that's all part of the sound and fun of vinyl, seeing how everyone's records sound slightly different on everyone else's record players


im not gonna say im gonna stop buying cd's, but with the ease of going to a record company's web site and buying the download for half the cost and 10 times the ease of hunting through every record shop in town, its defiantly going to slow, from now, i invest in vinyl

peace!

so.....

im new to this, i have been meaning to set one of these up since i first got the internet way back in 99 or 00 i dunno it was a long time ago, but just like i usually do, i procrastinated.

i have a few things i want to post about right away but i don't know if its cool to post about non-pc stuff or be un-pc about pc stuff (politically correct) hrmmm but then this is my page right and i do have freedom of speech right(or freedom of typing?),

i guess i will just post whatever i post and be cool with it for whatever mood im in at the time.

well enough of this intro bull shit on to the blogging..............

music

all i listen to broken down into a simple to view picture... great huh??

how can it be summarized so easily?
does this let you know who i am?
