haha i looooove that song. it's such an.. well... interesting song. it's soo incredibly random. but i love it so dearly. i lvoe those lines the best. i think that those lines are actually a really good example of good songwriting. i mean.. thats talent. who would have thought of explaining something that way??.. really. "the sky was gold, it was rose, i was taking sips of it through my nose" thats some creative stuff, man. "the sky was gold" that means like.. morning. cuz the sky is all gold colors and everything in the morning. "it was rose" now, this can be interperated in two ways. the first being "rose" as in an actual flower, a rose. he's comparing the sky to a rose. again.. it goes along with the whole color scheme thing. secondly, the sun rises in the morning. past tense, would be "rose." the sun rose up. i'm not quite sure which one they mean to use here, but both work! [tell me your opinions.. cuz i dono which one] "i was taking sips of it" thats just a fancy way to say "i was smelling" haha. interesting huh? "through my nose" just goes along with the whole "smelling" concept. taking sips of it through my nose. thats combining two sense right there. sips... what do we usually think of when someone says "i took a sip." drinks.. duh. so thats like, taste and stuff. and then "nose" is scent! see how strange they put it? THE SKY WAS GOLD, IT WAS ROSE, I WAS TAKING SIPS OF IT THROUGH MY NOSE. nice guys!




i really really do think thats such an amazingly creative way to say it!


ok well.. did you hear on the news about the train accident that took place at about 1 this morning?? somewhere in western mass two people were sturck by a train and killed. now,, since i don't watch the news i dont know the full story. however, i will do my best to explain.
- i was on the bus this morning and was listening to the radio [which was of course the most dreadful thing in the world- the news]
- as i was gettin goof i heard them mention that there was a train accident that involved a man and a woman
- the man was 20, attending college
- the woman was unable to be identified
- not able to be identified?? are you serious?? you know that means that the destruction was pretty bad. i mean... they cant even tell who it is.
- it happened at one o clock this morning. that means that at that time that i was listening to it [7:30 approx.] they'd had already been working on the case for about 6 and a half hours. and still.. they couldn't figure out who the woman was.
- well, being myself, a short attention spaned student i didn't really think anything of it. after all, it wasn't my buisness, i was focusing on getting into school ontime and without tripping, and i had a biology test during my first class that i needed to direct my thoughts too.
-ok, so.. the whole day went by.. yadda yadda yada...
- then comes history class
- there was an announcement made at about 1:30 over teh intercom, our principal was speaking.
- he said something to the effect of: "im sure some of you may have heard about the tragic accident that occured out in western ma this morning. there was a train that hit two college aged students. one was a boy, and the other; a girl. The girl, Molly _________ graduated from this school only a year ago. She was in the senior class of 2004, an excellent student, and now, we are grieeing the loos fo her life. If anyone needs too, they may visit the guidence office for support. I would like to take a moment of silence for all of us to honor her death, thank you. [moment of silence] again, the guidence office is open, you are free to talk to anyone you need too, i'm sorry that you all have to hear this, i know we will all always miss her and care for her, and her life will be part of us forever. thank you"
- umm.. excuse me? did you say she was here? she walked these very halls laughing and smiling just last june?


this was probably the most sobering-up thing i've heard in a while. i mean.. its so close to home. i never expeced to hear that. i feel bad now that i overlooked it earlier this morning. i mean.. i really do. i feel guilty. wow, death is so amazing. it really is. i mean, i know one of my friends cousins was friends with Molly. i can only imagine what it must have been like for her to recieve a phone call telling what happened. or maybe she found out by watching the news... who knows.
i mean like.. in a split second, everything can change. you never get to say goodbye. and suddenly you're wishing you had taken more advantage of all the time you spent together.. or didn't spend together. you never told them how much you loved them, or appreciated them. you never said enough "thank yous." all you have left are those moments, those memories. thats it. never again will you laugh with them, or cry with them. i mean really... its one of the saddest things people have to go through. death. losses. saddness.


i want to be in the mood. the mood to write. because this is such a facinating topic. and im so frusterated that i like.. i don't know. i'm not in the "zone" wow. how corny does that sound?? really corny. cheesey in fact. haha interesting how all of those words refer to food. CORNY and CHEESY. wow... somebody who made those up must have been hungry or something.

please don't tell me i'm the only one who notices these things.. cuz like.. i mean.. i can't be the only observative person around here!

*make any wierd observations lately? i'd love to know what they are.. ya know.. just out of curiosity. it gives me something to think about.a nd USUALLY something to write about. except for today and i odn't know why that is. maybe it's cuz im tierd. yeah.. thats gotta be it. my eyes are closing right now. like.. you know how when you blink, your eyes like, close and then snap right back open? well, mine aren't doing that right now. they close for about 5 seconds and then open back up all foggy and stuff.





so.. i am going on a ski trip!! you see.. i'm leaving tomorrow afternoon and and going to be gone till sunday night. im not going to be in school on Friday. as well as tomorrow. everyones saying we're going to have a snow day tomorrow but i highly doubt it. i mean like.. it's not snowing at all and it's wayyy to warm for it to snow. im guessing rain rain rain. but, hey, i dont watch the news so i just hear stuff from other people. allll of my teachers today said that they think we;re not going to have school tomorrow. pft. yeah right. i wish. i'm not going tomorrow anyway, even if we do have school. i'm tierd, and i have to pack. yeah.. thats going ot take me all day [wink wink]. i don't want to have ANOTHER ay to make up so i say "YES PLEASE LET THERE BE SCHOOL OFF TOMORROW" even though i HIGHLY DOUBT it'll be cancelled. i dont know where we are going skiing.. somewhere about 3 hours away thuogh. so like... northern Vermont, NH or Maine. its the family reunion!!! yayayayay! i have to rememebr to bring my camera. which, i will most likley forget to do because... thats typical me. i feel sooo bad that im not gonna be here on friday cuz i have child development class. and for that, my be [miss kerry lowell] and i go to Doyon Elementary and help out in the kindergarten class. well, we go on friday but i'm not gonna be there. so she has to handle all of tehm by herself!
