I didn't want to be one of those lame people who's all
"Keep out it's My life!"
But things came up.
I never thought I'd have to keep things from you, if I did I wouldn't be posting things online, but things change.
I don't bite, ask to be my friend and I probably will say yes.
I'm a book waiting to be opened by you.
flocked on 30 august 2007
but i'll strive to make them heard
maybe it's better now i've gone away
maybe it's not, oh who can say
Who can say?
I dun have much to say about this year, seeing as I forgot to write about it must not have been that great.
I dun have a count down because I haven't spent much time following music this year.
but what did I like?
Falling Off of The Lavender Bridge by Lightspeed Champion
Limbo, Panto by Wild Beasts
Box of Secrets by Blood Red Shoes
21 by Mystery Jets
Antidotes by Foals
Alas I cannot Swim by Laura Marling
those are primarily what I've been listening too.
and movies, I've not seen too many new ones.
I dunno what it is about this year but I've been really busy with things that aren't nearly as interesting as culture.
like a certain Ukrainian boy...
whatever.
This year has been amazing. and life changing. but it was also depressing and annoying.
here's to 2009 being better.
