Blue Does

"By the way
By your side I'll stay
If that's okay
Then by your side I'll stay forever
Here I am standing up
Because I want to fall in love with you..."

I'm tired and I hurt, but I don't wanna go to bed. So what do I do? Write a blog, of course...

Sometimes I just wish that there was some point in my life where everything would be perfect. Nothing would go wrong, and for awile, I could just live. Unfortunately, life has it's ways of making you feel down every once in awhile, and I guess it's just something we have to learn to put up with.
And I'm totally not saying that I'm unhappy with my life. I'm not. But at the same time, I can't truthfully say that I'm happy with it either. It's another one of those stupid in-between things. I can't even think of a word for it. Humm...

In other completelty unrelated news, in just 6 days, my friends from Japan will be coming to stay with me for about 2 weeks. It'll be pretty awesome.

I'm sorry but, now I have to write about Blue October again...
I just stopped writing for a minute and went through some of their stuff for the first time in awhile...
I remember the first time I listened to a Blue October song. Okay wait, I take that back, I probably don't actually remember the very first time because it was probably on the radio or something when I was little and wasn't paying attention. But the first time I reeeally listened to a Blue October song. It was "Hate Me," one of the popular ones that gets more airplay. I was like, "Oh yeah, I've heard this before." And that was about it. Then after awhile I started listening to more and more of their stuff...and overtime, I became addicted to them. Not just them, but to their sound, their lyrics, their emotion...basically, I fell in love. Now I listen to them everyday. My favorite songs of theirs are mostly the slower, more meaningful ones like Graceful Dancing, Everlasting Friend, She's My Ride Home...now I have to go listen.
You should, too.
Bye.

Instruments Of Amazingness

"All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You'd better run, better run, outrun my gun
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You'd better run, better run, faster than my bullet"

So. My current obsession is this.



That kid right there is named SungHa Jung. He's from Korea and he's like, a year younger than me. This is my favorite video of his because he's playing one of my favorite piano songs (On guitar, of course). It's called "River Flows In You", which is by a guy named Yiruma who is also Korean. I dunno what it is about this song that always makes me wanna cry when I listen to it, but anyway. Both these guys have some major talent. Go to this kid's YouTube page and you'll see all the amazing stuff he can do. And then go listen to some Yiruma. All of his compositions are pretty amazing as well.

Sooo anyway...that's really all I wanted to say. I guess I'll resume having no life now.

Adios muchachas.
