This post is titled: Putting things in their proper place.

And by "things," I mean people.

A friend of mine lets a girl treat him like dirt. She uses him for his money and his time, and she gives almost nothing in return. I told him the reason is that she doesn't respect him, because he's made it clear that he will put up with all of the hurtful things she does and still keep giving her attention.

So, I told him, it's time to put her in her place. He needs to make her feel a certain measure of unwanted and uncared for, that he's not always going to be there for her, that she's on her own, and she can only come to him on his terms.

He's been too much of a nice guy for too long, and he wants my help. Fortunately, I've become an expert on how to treat someone like that. Because it's how you treat me.

I was once told that the kinds of music you enjoy resonate with your individual energy, and that people who love the same kind of music as you also resonate with your energy; that you share something in common, whatever small part of your soul that is inexplicably drawn to the same kind of music.

So... what part of my soul do I share with the other fans of black/industrial metal, I wonder... ?

My new favorite Pandora channel will probably scare away most of the population. But I don't care. I love love love it, and I'm not sorry. <3

How ironic that the sweetest person I know introduced me to this kind of music. Thank you, Christophe, for showing me this amazing song that started my latest craze.





Before we could talk we were singing
Before we could walk we were dancing
Life is short but not a day is lost
The world goes round and round
And we go on and on...

Beijing to Amsterdam
Berlin to Buenos Aires
Sydney to L.A.
Rio to Abidjan
Stockholm to Athena
Dublin to Guatemala
London to Brasilia
Madrid to Philadelphia

Paris to San Francisco
Detroit to Warszawa
Moscow to Mexico
Oslo to New Dehli
Helsinki to New Orleans
Vienna to Lisboa
On earth, we're all

Dancing with the hidden tribe
Learning to move and fly
Touching the sky with our hands
Longing to love to understand

One world
Our world

You worked your way through the shell I've been so diligently constructing for so long. Since then it feels like the floodgates have opened, if only for a short time, and I've been touched by thoughts and emotions that previously wouldn't even phase me.

It felt good to cry. Thanks for listening.

When you can't get affection from the right places, you go looking for it in the wrong ones.

"Because sometimes truth isn't good enough. Sometimes people deserve more. Sometimes people deserve to have their faith rewarded.."

This girl may be the death of me. If I get through finals and pass all my classes, I will be astounded. The pictures and memories of some of the most fun I've had with a group of friends in forever? Worth it. Their impact on my GPA? I guess we will see......
