Modest Mouse - The View

Your gun went off.

Well you shot off your mouth and look where it got you.

My mouth runs on too.

Shouts from both sides,

"Well we've got the land but they've got the view!"

Well now here's the clue.

Life it rents us.

And yeah I hope it put plenty on you.

Well I hope mine did too.

As life gets longer, awful feels softer.

Well it feels pretty soft to me.

And if it takes shit to make bliss,

then I feel pretty blissfully.

Well now here's the clue.

We are fixed right where we stand.

And yeah I hope it put plenty on you.

Well I hope mine did too.

We are fixed right where we are.

As life gets longer, awful feels softer.

Well if feels pretty soft to me.

And if it takes shit to make bliss,

well I feel pretty blissfully.

For every invention made how much time did we save?

We're not much farther than we were in the cave.

As life gets longer, awful feels softer,

and it feels pretty soft to me.

And if it takes shit to make bliss,

well I feel pretty blissfully.

If life's not beautiful without the pain,

well I'd just rather never ever even see beauty again.

Well as life gets longer, awful feels softer.

And it feels pretty soft to me.

For every good deed done there is a crime committed.

We are fixed.

For every step ahead we could have just been seated.

We are fixed.

As life gets longer, awful feels softer.

Well it feels pretty soft to me.

And if it takes shit to make bliss,

well I feel pretty blissfully.

We are fixed.

We are fixed.

We are fixed right where we stand.

Awesome song, eh?

Nothing much, really

I awoke with my router at my feet. Whoa, what's it doing there? Turned out that i fell asleep last night without keeping it. Was so damn tired. Didn't sleep well for the whole week. Now the weekends is the only time I can catch up with my sleep.

No piano lesson today, as the teacher had something on. Woot! For once, my Saturday is education-free.

Basically played FFXI and ROSE the entire day. There was so much lag at ROSE, I couldn't even keep count of the times I died. Gave up at 50% to level 37, and went on to FFXI.

I was kind of surprised when Steini said that Sotori kicked them (him and Tarfur and Zenigata) out of the LS, theiveZguild. He actually did such a thing!? (Well, only the leader has the authority to kick pearlsackers out, of course) I really don't understand what's going on.

I switched back to Genocyde when Tarfur told me that they were in there. Sure am glad I didn't toss my sack back then. It holds too much valuable memories, anyway. Eneco got back his pearl too.

I thought it was kinda crazy in the thieveZguild where EVERYONE was pearlsacked. And not just that, people from all over the server was streaming in. I'm not saying that having more people is a bad thing, but it's just that there's to sense of "control" anymore. People get invited as and when someone liked. I don't even know half of them in there. So, yeah. It feels out of place.

Well, i logged soon after and just talked to Steini for the rest of the afternoon on MSN. He's from America, but he didn't feel like sleeping then. He revealed his real name, and I learned something about Asperger's Syndrome from the conversation.

Well, fiddled with the camera and took some pictures of myself and my brother, and uploaded them on to the Genocyde Website. And now I feel bored again. Guess i'm done for now.

Warning, Long Post Alert

I haven't really been doing anything much lately. Yeah sure there were the holidays and all, but it just seems so boring, same stuff all day long. Even my ps2 has been somewhat "dumped" aside because my parents decided on getting a new TV and there's this stupid problem with it. The screen enlarges itself at times and the images disappear out of the damn screen. All the games I play, especially the RPGs, are affected because of this, because the status bars are always at the bottom of top and are largely affected. Well I've kinda given up on that, and since the long-awaited RPGs won't be out until late this year or so, I'll wait until then.

And then there was NOMAD, which is held in our school this year. And we, the MEP students are the lucky ones to get chosen to be in the "wonderful" transit lounge section of the performance. Lucky? Yeah, right. Anyway, thinking back, it wasn't so bad after all. It's just that the grand piano didn't seem quite well suited where it stood, where it was so noisy, and we couldn't hear what we were playing.

So now, I'm playing R.O.S.E. Online, the MMORPG, similar to Maplestory, or sea or global or watchamacallit. Only difference is that its 3-D, and I think the gameplay itself is much much better. One downside though, it lags quite a bit at major leveling areas, so much that u could be fighting a monster one moment, and you'll find yourself dead once it stops lagging, just because you couldn't heal yourself in time. Ugh, gotta hate that. But it's free, at least, and it's really good despite all that.

I can go on and on... gotta stop myself now, I guess. Gotta study for Biology test tomorrow, though I think I won't actually do it...
