The 'How You Feelin'' thread v6.0

[woodyloveslinkin]

I'm good. Was up early to clean up the house for Lucy to come over. Gonna go downtown later on when she comes, do some shopping and do what sister's do best (she treats me like a big sister so I treat her like a little sister...even the bagging out element I do best).

 

And I happy, cos I found a pair of earrings I thought I had lost. w00t w00t!

[LPNailz]

I was suppose to learn bass but thing is i have a lot things to do.

 

No i feel pist cuz my father is drunk and now of all time we are gonna go rent something and then do work at night even tho he knows i have work the next day. woo hoo.

I sing - not semi-professionally or anything - because there was no learning required. I was supposed to learn how to play a recorder, but it sorta fell through. Singing's more fun anyway.

 

 

I feel happyish. Ish being the opperative part.

[woodyloveslinkin]

^ I know how to play drums and basic guitar/piano/oboe.

[LPNailz]

You disgust me.

 

I would like to learn guitar, but I probably don't have the attention span. I'll just stick to singing, especially Shinedown, NIN, LP, and Matchbox20. They're all fairly easy.

[woodyloveslinkin]

LOL. I started to drum when I was getting into LP, so I was drumming them and Train. But anyone, can drum White Stripes lol. Meg's never taken a single drumming lesson, that's all I have to tell you to show you how simple her drumming is. The first song I learnt on piano was Drops of Jupiter by Train. And when I was playing the oboe, I learnt more classical stuff then modern (I still have my oboe around here somewhere but this is what I get for being in the school band at that stage of my life). I can play Wonderwall by Oasis on acoustic.

 

If you want some some simple songs to sing just PM and I can recommend you some.

[LPNailz]

Naw. I'll settle for terribly mutilating songs my poor diseased brain thinks is easy.

 

Shinedown and M20 really are easy though.

[Sponge]

Well it turns out that my dad's not drunk and we did no work. YESSS.

 

Now the song me and my band were going to play was Coheed And Cambria "Welcome Home" but it was kinda hard for the guitarist.

 

So now (when I was in the band) we were gonna play Sweet O' Child Of Mine by GNR, Devour Second Chance and another song idk by Shinedown. Also Go With The Flow by QOTSA

[speedthief]

i can play the guitar and the drums

 

for the drums i can play only LP songs with my band!

[Ravynlee]

Am feelin' good! Restless, but good! No complaints at the mo - schweet.

[woodyloveslinkin]

Tired *falls asleep listening to some random rap music* ...

[Ravynlee]

Aww poor Sarah... go to bed.

 

 

I wish I was tired. Thank god I don't have an early start in the mo or I'd be majorly pissed (off) right about now.

[woodyloveslinkin]

Matt.I.Know.Your.Secrets.

 

Lol. I'm fine. For Now.

[Ravynlee]

am goot (blame Bruce Almighty)

[woodyloveslinkin]

Am gonna go to bed now. Finally. So tired.

[LPNailz]

Cheerful but under pressure. So much for weekends being my off-time - I got shit to do.

[Devilsnight2003]

Matt.I.Know.Your.Secrets.

 

 

You Do

 

Im fed up from a crap day at work

[KillMeImIrish]

oh... muh gawd. coheed and cambria is better than a sunday(/e) covered in chocolate on FRIDAY!!!! i really like that song, too.

[woodyloveslinkin]

I'm all good. For now. Can't believe I slept in so late.

[LPNailz]

I'm tired. Still feeling pressured, and when I'm pressed to do something, I tend to crawl into a corner and lie, either to say I did it, or to say I can't for some reason. It sucks. I don't want to let people down, but I can't do everything either. And now at the same time, I want to do more, to surprise people. It's like I can't live up to my own expectations, and that's a terrible feeling.

 

Must stop with the introspection. It just makes it all worse. But god, I need a good cry or a hug or to bury myself in a decent book or something.

[speedthief]

Yes!!! recently i learnt what i've done in drums

Nailz, you sound like you need to lighten up on yourself. I don't know you personally, and having high yet achievable expectations are a good thing in that it gives you something to strive for, so long as you don't set the bar too high or too low, and don't set too many bars in place at the one time, even the world's best multitasker can't get everything done in a day. Maybe re-prioritising your goals, or even using this self-examination/introspection to really weigh up who you're trying to please so hard and why (even if it is yourself) and see if there isn't some other way to go about achieving said goals. And nothing could be that urgent you won't live if it's not done (unless said person is terminal, that's a whole other ballgame) - but there's always tomorrow. Just don't slip too far down that slippery slope of procrastination either, look for a happy balance that serves YOU best FIRST (everyone else second etc in order of importance to you, it's your life after all, it's not selfishness, it's a physical fact) and take it one step at a time. If you try and please everyone all the time all you're gonna do is burn yourself out and leave in your wake a trail of half-assed attempts and semi-failures which of course will only help to bring you down further... So there, that's my opinion. Sorry, I felt the inclination to share it. I do that sometimes. I meant often. But opinions are like @$$holes, everyone's got one, we just don't have to hear all about it all the time either XD

Sorry for the rant.

Blame the coffee, chocolate and... me. My mentality. Sorry

 

How am I feeling? Dunno now. I think I might go watch The Simpsons and see how I'm feeling after that!

[woodyloveslinkin]

How am I feeling? Ok I guess. I saw He's Just Not That Into You today, good chick flick film. Some good eye candy in that film

[LPNailz]

Thanks, Rav. But the main problem is something I don't even have control over, but think I could do a much better job at. Thing is, I don't have the time (or the personality, really) to do it - but that doesn't stop my damn brain from whispering I would do this better, I should step in, I should speak up. I've always tried to take my mind off everything and enjoy myself on weekends, and for some reason it just didn't work this time.

 

*shakes fist at the heavens*

 

I'm still tired. I know I'd feel better, if only marginally, if winter would get it's butt off my doorstep.

[woodyloveslinkin]

A bit freaked out. Dreamt last night that I was in a graveyard and when I touched the tombstone I ended up somewhere completely different with a random guy that I've never seen in my life. I kept dropping things. So I went back to find the same tombstone and it wasn't there anymore. That's all I can remember, some kind of sci-fi dream that was fucked up. Not to mention my ex and his twin sister was driving past in a car in my dream and kept looking at me as though they knew something and I didn't.

 

 

Wow. Someone could really make a story out of my dream if they really wanted to.

[Sponge]

^ Yes that is very true.

 

I was told by my supervisor that working for a long time at my job can make you hate people. I mean come man, if we say you have to pay extra then you have to pay extra. Your no different from anyone else. And to top it off, ppl at my work who've been their for a long ass time ask the same question. WTF man. This job gets me pist off....which is kinda bad cuz i don't get pist off at all.
