Post # 200

So, this is my 200th post .   And these are a couple of things I'm mulling over  and working on currently.
THINGS I'M WORKING ON
Whether to audition for a part in a local musical or not. I've never done anything like this before and I think it would at the least be a good learning experience.

Finish vamping up my resume soon, like tonight.

Keep up with my fitness program. I'm beginning to see even more results.

Order a new book I want .

Work on some blog post ideas.


I'm trying to figure out a lot of stuff in my life and am finding it a bit challenging.

STUFF I'M THINKIN' 'BOUT.

Why don't I get more comments on my blog?  I'm not really complaining , but I'm curious . I personally find nearly always something to comment about on all the blogs I follow, and I just can't work out why I don't get many. Are people bored with my blog? What do they like to read about here? Should I just stop blogging for a while?   Do people not like my blog?     Just wondering.

Why do some people have to go through sooooo much difficult hard to understand stuff and other people nothing like that at all?

I'm thinking up a couple of new story lines .





Anyhoo  that's pretty much it .   Stuff   I'm thinking and working on and trying to understand.
Maybe tonight I'll watch something I love and drink something sweet and comfortable and just relax and forget them all.  Sounds lovely no?

Did I mention along with Wolverine i also love this guy?  I <3 you Dastan!!!!!

"Skyscraper"

I sooooo love this song!  "Skyscraper"  for me is a song about even when you feel broken , worn or just plain awful to stand tall ,be you and be proud of being you and what you have overcome. 
                                   In the past year Demi Lovato has overcome quite a few issues which have been challenging her for most of her life. She decided to do something about it and with help has become a much happier and more confident person.  For me she is inspirational, if a celebrity , who has millions of people watching their each move can accept and overcome their problems, and then tell those millions what they are , surely I one person can accept my problems and overcome them? No matter how small they are or seem to be. 

This song is one of 18 songs I have made a playlist of and put on my Mp4 player.   I called the playlist  the  "Happy playlist" and its a collection of songs which I find inspirational , and encouraging.  For me to listen to when I feel down.   And this one is like in the top 5 of that playlist that get played all the time. In fact its number 1. 

What do you think? Do you like this song? Do you have a song that you listen to to encourage you?

TEN Things that irratate and annoy me

 1.People telling me what I should be doing and how to do it.

2.Background music on blogs, as I often try to go on blogger at night when little kids are in bed and the music spooks me out and make me jump out of my skin.  As its unexpected.

 3. When I'm listening to music and some one turns it down.

4. High pitched whistling.  It just grates against my nerves.

5. People messing up a room I've just tidied .

6. Crummy lyrics in songs. Like if its baout icecream its just like 'I love my icecream its so great , gonna eat it tonight on a date . With the girl of my life. Nanananana! Ohhhhhhh Yeah!"   Awful!!!!!!! And I just made that up.   

7.   Picture books that are supoosed to be read to little kids to teach them basic things which shouldn't be a book, like how to go to the toilet. Gosh! How dumb are some people! Its ina little room and when you need to go you go! Simple!!!  Kids aren't dumb!

8.Peopel wearing mismatched clothes, or clothes that just make them look frumpy. I just want to grab them and give them a free make over .  That would be nice wouldn't it?

9. When I wake up and Julia Gillard is Prime Minister. Gosh! Can't wait till shes kicked out in the next election. What a happy day that will be! :D    

10. People who dislike chips. I love chips! Must be my British heritage. But, who couldn't like these?

Musician's and songs I like. Part Four : Avril Lavaigne

Avril Lavaigne, you either think her musics awesome or you think it is the worst sound on the planet.  I am one of those people who belong in the former category . I consider her music awesome!  Also her vocals are very unique I think.

Out of all her songs my  two  favourites  would have to be   "When You're Gone "    and "Keep Holding On."

The first one, "When you're gone" is sad , and sweet.   It speaks about how much  this one person is missed soooo much by Avril . And how She never realised how much she loved him till he was gone.
Here it is:  "When You're Gone."

 The second one "Keep Holding On"   is about never giving up and holding on to dreams and always trying.  My favourite line out of it is  "What ever  is meant to be , will work out perfectly." Beautiful no?     Here is the music video for "Keep Holding On"

So, Do you like Avril Lavaigne?   Do you like either of the above songs?  Which is your favourite(s)  song (s) of hers?

Musician's and songs I like. Part Three : Demi Lovato

 I'd have to say that Demi Lovato is my favorite singer/songwriter/ musician . I love her songs. I love the depth of meaning the have and I like the happy light hearted ones she has.   I admire the struggles she has gone through and the strength she has had to get help and come out a better person.   I love the way she dresses .   Okay, so I like her a lot.      And I will continue to love and support her music and journey.      My favorite of her songs would  have to be her new one  "Skyscraper."

There is such a powerful message for me in this song. And it can vary each time I listen to it.   It has for me many hidden meanings , many deep heart warming meanings for me in life.     What did you think? Do you like Demi? Which is your favorite song of hers?  Tell me!
