So i was driving home from school today, when my radio picked up a pretty snazzy song. I looked at the screen, and what did i see? PET SHOP BOYS?
Didn't they form in like, early 1980's? How old does that make them?? Anyways, after i had gotten rid of my dumbfoundedness i actually really began to appreciate the song, and appreciate them for having been around for so long and still sounding good. And i like their song I'm with stupid - 2006, i think? - supposedly having some negative connotations about our oh-so-mighty ex-president BUSH and Tony Blair? (Being an international student, i actually know who that is) I guess i like any song that goes against that terrible american mistake, that (oh NO!) repeated itself in 2004, after having started a war so terrible and unnecessary, that it probably burned the history books after it was imprinted in them.
On a lighter note: me liking the PSB, does not mean that i approve of other bands - who should have long ago been buried in the ground (not metaphorically) - continuing to escapade around the world, doing "tours" and calling themselves "comebacks". Oldies should stay buried in: a) the ground b) our iPods, under 'not recently listened to' c) the grandmother's super old boombox from the god-knows-when's.
One thing i cannot stand, other than racism, homophobia or two-faced backstabbing ho-bags are bands that don't know when to STOP! *ahem rolling stones ahem*
Wow. who knew my thoughts on the Pet Shop Boys would lead to a whole rampage about politics. (and my hate for them grandpas... ARGH)
ok. i have to go relax now. Have a great day y'all.
ps. here's the song that almost made me have an accident in the car.
Well, this is the first podcast i've ever posted. I've made loads...but not really publishable-material haha...
As the title of the video might reveal, i am tired, not as tired as the podcast makes me look...but still pretty damn tired. so that is the explanation to my apathy.
hope you guys don't completely hate my first ever podcast.
Who knew sitting in Babbage Computer Lab after the german exam would be so fun? Well, only if you have your balkan sister in crime sitting next to you ;) Otherwise Babbage can be quite a bore. Don't even get me started...
just thought i'd throw in a tad of memorabilia of the past =] GURKE IT'S BEEN GREAT.
German proved to be a success - i hope. Writing about Kafka in his mothertongue is a great honor. Ha, no not really.
Note: Napoleon Says by Phoenix is also a song worth listening to...especially if you're just sitting in a pretty cold room filled with transvestite-eating computers. and balkans.
I guess i don't really have much to say today. I'm going to try to upload a podcast or something tonight. Hopefully itll work :/ Me and uploadings don't have much of a "peaceful" relationships...
I think whoevers reading this should go take a look at: The Chaotic World of Cecilia
I know she's reading this and i know i said i would call and i know that i should have sent something by now and i know im a horrible person and i hope to god she forgives me and loves me til eternity because that person right there is everything i've ever wanted and everything i'll ever get because i won't ask for anything else since i already have her.
Today: was supposed to be an great day, weather-wise. Otherwise, we have exams in school, so there's no greatness there. But yeah, the weather did disappoint the Baslers today. And the poor ISB-ers, who had to catch the tram in the rain...and SOME stupid students (like me) had come to school in nothing more than a tanktop. Hence, they got soaked on the way home. However, Drewmore was kind enough to give me his jacket, which i WILL return tomorrow, no matter what anyone says. It's kind of interesting how blogs turn out to be...secrets and whatnot just poured out onto luminous cyber-screens. I didn't know how this was going to turn out; it being my first blog and all...but i think i've come to a conclusion. Based on this short inlook on my day today, i think it will work out fine....i love it =]
see you all tomorrow. If anyone's reading this. feels good to pour though.
ps. when you're feeling down, due to the weather, due to some english boy breaking your heart and it never mending or if there just isn't anyone online to talk to, listen to this song:
