A Fine Frenzy - Almost Lover

I love this song. It makes my heart falter. I love listening to this especially when I just want to sleep or to just have a quiet time for myself. This song is about a love bound to be separated by unresolved circumstances that makes them just almost lovers. The song is moving. I've embedded the video and lyrics are included as well.


A Fine Frenzy - Almost Lover Lyrics

Your fingertips across my skin
The palm trees swaying in the wind
Images
You sang me Spanish lullabies
The sweetest sadness in your eyes
Clever trick

Well, I never want to see you unhappy
I thought you'd want the same for me

[Chorus]
Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

We walked along a crowded street
You took my hand and danced with me
Images
And when you left, you kissed my lips
You told me you would never, never forget
These images

No

Well, I'd never want to see you unhappy
I thought you'd want the same for me

[Chorus]
Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

I cannot go to the ocean
I cannot drive the streets at night
I cannot wake up in the morning
Without you on my mind
So you're gone and I'm haunted
And I bet you are just fine

Did I make it that
Easy to walk right in and out
Of my life?

[Chorus]
Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should have known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

Happiness all over...

Today, I've seen how much was my salary for this cut-off and to my surprise it was big! I could not imagine how much it really is if I'd not gone on VGH. But what the heck, it's more than enough for me.

Because of this, I was able to purchase a new pair of shoe in Leaveland. We (me and my cousin) ate in Greenwich and had a take-out of a family size 7 Meats and Cheeses Overloaded pizza. I also bought 10 pieces of doughnut for my young cousins in Riverside. Though, I was not able to watch the movie Wanted but there is always next time, right?! I've already given Tet and Reggie my share for the house rent, food budget and payment for our bills and enough to spare for my savings.

I can't wait until the next pay day comes. Slow but surely, I'll earn enough money to buy myself a new 8G Ipod Touch for my birthday. Just three more months 'till that day and hopefully I can have that. Just inform you if I was able to get it.

Waiting for Pay Day

At last! This is the day I've been waiting for. This is the 3oth which means I'll get my salary. But the question is: how much will it be?

I have 17-20 hrs worth of VGH or unpaid hours for this cut-off. I wish what's left be enough to pay all my bills. During the 30th, I need to pay my rent, bills for electricity and water, allowance for myself and my sister, etc. Again it will just pass by my hand and tomorrow whats' left are just morsels of the lump I had.

I want to watch a movie as well just to relax before I go back to work tomorrow. I hope what's left is enough for the movie treat.

I'm just waiting for my cousin right now so that I can check it out. I hope that it'll be 10k or more. Just update then you guys later if it was more than enough or just so-so.

This sucks...

After spending several hours in creating a post here in my blog, I ended up recreating everything. (*Sigh*) This is not what I intended to do but that's what I finished off with.

I don't know what happened but it seems that something is wrong with my browser or the website. It's not updating the posts I'm publishing here. I thought it was just a fluke but viewing it on another browser made me think that it could have been on the website but then will I compromised not publishing the posts? What I did is deleted the blog I made and created a new one.

I hope this will not happen again because I don't want to do this every time I'm making one. 'Till the next post.

Random Thoughts...

Why is it hard to answer the question "why?".

Ever since, it has always been hard for me. Why? What did I do to deserve all of this things? I just want a life that is peaceful and quiet. A life that when you sleep you don't need to worry about what will happen tomorrow. I never wanted a perfect life but just a normal one. I've been through a lot and I don't know how much more I can bare in this world.

Why when you think that everything seems to fall in place another problem comes along and tears everything to pieces. I've been impaired too much of all this emotional and mental drawbacks in life. People around me just don't see it but deep inside me I just want to scream and release myself from these shackles that bind me from achieving true happiness.

I feel so alone right now. I know I'm surrounded by people that gives me encouragement but why is that I still feel so empty inside? Life is tough and I need a sturdy foundation to endure this. I had that before but what did I do, I let myself go to waste and gave up holding to the only key to my own true happiness. I want to have that back and start being me again.

I think what will make me as me is if I find the purpose of my life and do good at it. What I am today is not what I think I am. This life I have is a life of deception but no one can see it. I know I'll get to a point when my body just gives up and I die, but the question is by that time have I reached the point of true happiness?

Nothing to do

This is the start of creating a medium to express my utmost deepest thoughts. Tonight I'm all alone in this house, just staring at my computer and thinking on what to type in this blog. There's no food in the table and just a pitcher of water to last 'till pay day (2 days more). I don't have money. I'm so poor right now. This is why I hate when salary day falls on a Monday and especially when the first salary comes 2 days earlier which means I need to budget my money for the next 2 days to still have enough money till the next salary comes. I'll end up thirsty and hungry. This is not good.

The nice thing about this, I have 4 days off. I don't need to spend money until Monday. I get to rest for 4 consecutive days before I return to work. Once I'm back to work, my schedule is in the opening shift again which means I can have VGH. VGH means less money but longer bed time. I love to sleep and besides I'm rich (LOL).

I guess this is enough for one day. I'll just make some updates once a week. 'Till my next post then.
