I'm throwing myself into music at the moment, absorbing the sounds and melodies. I love singing along bashing out lyrics, putting all of myself into the music and forgetting.
I love Olly Murs's new album, its really good, I got it on Monday and have listened to it dozens of times now.
My favourite tracks are as follows...
Track 4; Dear Darlin'
Track 8; Head to Toe
Track 10; What a Buzz
Track 12; One of These Days
Here are some of my favourite lyrics.....
"Dear Darlin', please excuse my writing. I can't stop my hands from shaking. Cos I'm cold and I need you tonight..."
"One, two, three, now I'm building up the courage. Four, five, six, walking over in a hurry.... I won't take no for an answer tonight, can't you see there's a fire in my eyes? For you"
"Tonight I'm drinking wine with a girl I just met.... tell me about you. What a buzz. Where I'd be without you... Tell me all about you. What a beautiful buzz with a girl I might love"
"One of these days I'm gonna find someone to love......... My room is big enough for the both of us. So won't you come around, help me fill it up.......One of these days I'll find you cos I wont give up"
Reading over these, maybe I'm just some kind of hopeless romantic <3

Beauty
I love this picture. I am mesmerised by the eyes of this young lady; they make me think of soul searching, hope, wonder and power. I can't get over how this image sums up beauty so perfectly.
It's very beautiful over there
A quote from...
Looking for Alaska~ JOHN GREEN
First friend, first girl, last words.
When adults say, "Teenagers think they are invincible," with that stupid smile on their faces, they don't know how right they are. We need never be hopeless, because we can never be irreparably broken. We think that we are invincible because we are. We cannot be born and we cannot die. Like all energy, we can only change shapes and sizes and manifestations. They forget that when they get old. They get scared of losing and failing. But that part of us greater than the sum of our parts cannot begin and cannot end, so it cannot fail.
So I know she forgives me, just as I forgive her. Thomas Edison's last words were, "It's very beautiful over there."

LONELY
It is not unusual for me to feel alone even when with others, however, I don't think I have ever felt loneliness this powerful before. It wasn't until I experienced near constant friendship and company like I am now that when I am on my own or having a down day I experience loneliness on a whole new level.
I crave for human contact and company. Not only does it get boring being here on my own when everyone else is out but my mind wanders off and leaves me behind in an empty shell- unable to move other than to breathe I just sit until something jerks me back to life and I notice a few hours have gone by, none the wiser as to where they went, let alone how. Time escapes me, or perhaps I escape time.
Similarly, I have always slept in this bedroom okay but once or twice now someone has stayed the overnight and I feel so lonely each night that he doesn't stay (not for some stalkerish weird reason but because it didn't occur to me that I am living on my own here until he was gone). It's so odd, it never occured to me that I would feel lonely when in bed at night.
Its not until you've got something and then loose it (if only temporarily) that you notice how much you need it and can't survive without.
