FINALLY!!!! Time to blog! Sheesh, haven't been here in ages..
But this is only because of the fact that I have been swimming in an un-ending ocean of assignments and have now only reduced that ocean to a puddle. This makes me VERY happy!
I'm needing some TLC today though. The weekend that I was going to spend with my boyfriend has been cancelled and I will not be seeing him for 4 weeks so bare with me if this post gets slightly soppy.
So, today it was Skillet that was guiding me through all of my work and I listened to a song that I haven't heard in a while which is called Those Nights. Skillet is so awesome because and I don't know why. I think it's that "it factor" that all the painful talent shows talk about. And the lead singer's voice. And the instrumentals. And the words of the songs. A combo of all of these things is really unlikely in most bands etc. and I don't know why. Skillet, however, pulls everything off with such awesomeness, you can't help but LURV them!! Anyway, give this song a listen and then look for some of their other stuff of the Tube that is You 'cause they can make some really great tunes. Even if you think they are emo-gross-cry-baby-prepubescent losers, just try it. PLEEEEASE. If you don't have at least one of their songs stuck in your head afterwards then you may send me hate mail.
I give you...le awesome song!
Oh and for those of you with StumbleUpon, well done!! And for those of you that don't....DO IT!!! DO IT NOW!!! It's a fat time consumer and will assist you in any issues of procrastination that you might be lacking in so beware. But it's such a beauty. You find the most amazing things.
Like this: Men Who Make Houses Explode.
They take wood panels from the house itself and rip them out, saw them up or glue them together and then they nail them back onto the house in these forms. So COOL!!
I think that this one of my favourite, but the next one is the most intense one, I think.
And this vortex looking thing goes straight through to the other side. Sadly 2 of the structures have been knocked down as they were earmarked for development, even before the artists got hold of them.
And there is so much more that you find. StumbleUpon takes you all over the web and back. Just type in your interests, click "Stumble" and away you go.
Weather has been so crappy today, I decided to stay in and do work at the expense of my lectures, but I don't care at this point in time 'casue I pretty much despise the lecturer and I don't like the other subject, partly due to the lecturer as well. Let us not go into that because there is really no need for me to injure my keyboard right now.
OH!! BREAKING NEWS!! BEER IS BETTER FOR YOUR LIVER THAN WHAT COFFEE IS!!
We knew a family and the husband was an alcoholic and I never saw him sober once in my entire life. He had a heart attack in April and passed away sadly, but we only learnt of it yesterday. They had to do an autopsy to verify the cause of death because of the fact that he was an alcoholic. His liver was in perfect condition, albeit a little aged, because he drank beer and beer alone. The family was uber-shocked and the doctors then told them about the fact that beer doesn't damage your liver. I'm assuming it's because there is a LOT of water involved in the process of making beer and because it's made from natural ingredients such as barley and hops. Who knows..
Think I might actually write an article on that for the student newspaper.
Peace kids!! Must work now :)
