I spent most of the day starting and stopping this post. My mood changed tremendously...
Now I guess I'm just humbled and shocked... "seasons change, but people don't" makes sense now...well valid sense... Does anyone really change? Suppressing who you are... or who you "were" just affects things for now... things must arise sometime...
I desperately hope I'm wrong... and that there's some fraction of error that could reverse events... like Bon Jovi's "say it isn't so... tell me it's not true..."..

Shads is out of the hospital. They still don't know what was wrong with her... but she's fine now...
I have nothing much more to say... But I discovered a song from a couple years back, with an old feel to it... "Give me a reason" (also called "Glory Box") by a British band named Portishead.
The lyrics are pretty decent too...
"Give me a reason"
I'm so tired of playing, Playing with this bow and arrow, Gonna give my heart away, Leave it to the other girls to play, For I've been a temptress too long. Hmm just, Give me a reason to love you, Give me a reason to be, A woman, I just wanna be a woman. From this time, unchained, We’re all looking at a different picture, Through this new frame of mind, A thousand flowers could bloom, Move over, and give us some room. Yeah, Give me a reason to love you, Give me a reason to be, A woman, I just want to be a woman. So don't you stop, being a man, Just take a little look from our side when you can, Sow a little tenderness, No matter if you cry. Give me a reason to love you, Give me a reason to be, A woman, It's all I wanna be is all woman. For this is the beginning of forever and ever, It's time to move over , So I want to be. I'm so tired of playing, Playing with this bow and arrow, Gonna give my heart away, Leave it to the other girls to play. For I've been a temptress too long. Hmm just, Give me a reason to love you.
Frankie and I were just talking about how HOT a mix between Justin and Britney would be... and the irony of it all considering their little feud of the ex-es/you-cheated-on-me-so-i'll-forever-release-songs-about-you-with-look-alikes thing going on..
But just think of the possibilities... TWO club anthems... think of the hotness...

Forgiveness... just let it go.
An ounce of truth exists in all thats been said, always. Sometimes we just don't see the ounce at once - but it's there.

Long.. long... long day. I'm super tired. Work was eventless and yet tiresome. For now, I shall be thankful... my free periods shall soon be but a distant memory when the new timetable is finished... and my tiredness shall be for legit reasons of having actual work to do rather than lack thereof... Bleh...
Dropped by dad's office. Saw Nevon and got to chat about music for a bit. Went to visit Shads at the hospital. I reckon she'll be fine, but they're not entirely sure whats wrong... But I believe she'll be ok. My lil' sis... of course she will...
I'm soo tired... Must... go... now...
I'm losing coherency..
Shelli out.

P.S. I finally got the time setting right for my posts... so the times are finally right - sort of. It's according to what time I started the post, rather than what time it was published... oh well.
Britney is back!!! I must say the opening line, quoted above, of her first single kind of throws you off. However it seems like swear words are the cool "in thing" now, everybody is doing it. Avril is the "mother****ing princess" and Linkin Park is wondering "what the **** is wrong with me?" so whats wrong with a little "b*tch" from Britney.
I think this new track 'Gimme gimme more' is the HOTTEST thing ever. I believe it truly has the potential to become a club anthem... well I'm not sure if here in Grenada... BUT I would hope so. It's got a nice strong beat, catchy lyrics... I mean... c'mon... gimme gimme more gimme more... *wink*
AND for Britney there's some double innuendo depth to the song. One can interpret the lyrics two ways (or more... but I don't think it's THAT deep :P)... firstly, a response to the unwanted press that's all involved in her life... and secondly an overtly sexual song about wilding out on the dance floor. That's a whole new level for Brit.
(If that sounds sarcastic.. it really isn't meant to be... I really do love the song...)
And then the second single "Cold as fire" is a bit of an acquired taste. My first reaction was... "what the hell is that annoying chirping sound? Is it my computer speakers? Is it some bird fight outside?"... My second reaction was "What's up with her voice...?! She sounds like a little kid... *blink blink*".... BUT after constant self-inflicted bombing on my eardrums, compliments youtube.com and the two-in-one videos, I finally warmed up to it.
It's catchy. It's fun. It's Britney.
Go Britney! Go Britney! It's your comeback!
You're bringing sexy back. *wink*... Uhh... bad analogy... has she and Justin made up yet?

We keep it rockin.....

So... Lemme lemme roll
Into my... my.. bed
Gimme gimme more.
Shelli out.
P.S. Is it just me... or is Post Secret skimping on the secrets recently? I scrolled through in like 5 minutes or less... what's up with that? I swear it feels like Frank is cheating - Last week he posted two secrets twice. He did it again this week. *mutter grumble mutter* I feel so cheated.
Behold my pillow. The three flowers on it were painted by moi. For once when I saw I shall post a photo I have done so... I nearly changed my mind and decide to post the photo later tomorrow...
Anyways... Tropical Depression Felix or what ever the hell it is now and my cough aren't the best of friends at the moment. My cough is trying to kill me... and I don't know what to do about it... so I'm off for now. Perhaps I might find myself before this screen again during the night out of sheer desperation for entertainment and inability to fall asleep...
