EPISODE TROI : c'est la vie
———



Funny how a lonely day, can make a person say:
What good is my life
Funny how a breaking heart, can make me start to say:
What good is my life
Funny how I often seem, to think I'll never find another dream
In my life
Till I look around and see, this great big world is part of me
And my life

This is my life
Today, tomorrow, love will come and find me
But that's the way that I was born to be
This is me

This is my life
And I don't give a damn for lost emotions
I've such a lot of love I've got to give
Let me live

Sometimes when I feel afraid, I think of what a mess I've made
Of my life
Crying over my mistakes, forgetting all the breaks I've had
In my life
I was put on earth to be, a part of this great world is me
And my life
Guess I'll just add up the score, and count the things I'm grateful for
In my life

This Is my life
Today, tomorrow, love will come and find me
But that's the way that I was born to be
This is me

This is my life
And I don't give a damn for lost emotions
I've such a lot of love I've got to give
Let me live

[This Is My Life, Shirley Bassey]

EPISODE DEUX : turning your lovelight down again
———
OUTSIDE honestly, i do not understand how anyone can seriously use the word REALISTIC when discussing Iraq... IRAQ SUCCESS 'POSSIBLE' SAYS US.
and wtf is going on with this drama of madge... MADONNA TALKS ABOUT ADOPTION TO OPRAH, is that realistic?

GREY'S ANATOMY the undergrad applications are done. score! just 3 grad schools left. however, now i'm having to plan out the itinerary for london and exactly how do you plan a tour of 6 schools? last weekend was quite busy but uneventful. the fall foilage cruise was beautiful, but MARIE ANTOINETTE... pffft! my description of it is frivilous and gorgeous. basically a lovely slideshow with little and pointless dialogue.

MEDLEY I still can't get enough of Najuoa, the album is just so brilliant. COMME TOI is definitely standing out for me right now. not to mention the fact that sugababes EASY is just the hottest track out there. the new Gwen Stefani track WIND IT UP, needs to be really wound down. goofy but not in the good LAMB way. come on, who samples THE SOUND OF MUSIC? i'll prolly love it in a few months, but right now i just can't imagine. and apparently Scarlet Johansson has recorded some material, starting with SUMMERTIME. quite lovely and i'm quite impressed with her voice, try to check it out. not to tease, but i'm working on making 10 second song clips and how to link them, so that then this will all make more sense.

[clearly i'm also still working out this formating thing]

EPISOPE UN: entre deux mondes

[SMILEY]
[THE WORLD OUTSIDE VANILLA-BEAN] at the moment, there's a lot of weird shit going down in russia. tony blair is speaking up. here's one of the more troubling...
Russia stops aid groups' work

[SEX & THE CITY] so last saturday i went out with cinammon to bar hop through hell's kitchen. it was a really great nite, fun and much needed. but it also confirmed that i'm not ready to be drunk yet, even though the breakup was a month ago. some texts that should not have been sent, were sent. and in the middle of the street i had a brief cry. which lead to a touching moment of comforting and a great monologue of support by cinammon. so as always, things happen for the best. this weekend has music trivia, a fall foilage cruise, art installation showing from a DASH alumn, another fabulous french party, and at some point the viewing of Marie Antoinette. i'm excited to see this movie even though i prolly won't like it. pffft!

[GREY'S ANATOMY] with the receipt of my first recommendation from a former professor, i am ready to submit 6 of the 9 college applications i have laid out for myself. these of course are the 6 undergraduate programs. still tweaking the personal statement, but i plan on submitting it all by the end of the week. as for the 3 grad programs... still working on it but it's all coming together. personal deadline for all of it, is the end of the month.

[MEDLEY] voila! today's episode title "Entre Deux Mondes" is the name of one of my favourite albums this year, and naturally of the moment. it's by Najoua Belyzel. great 80s electro sound with screaming in french. love it. even if i only understand half of it. it's quite brilliant. otherwise, the RUDEBOX by robbie williams is hot! very excited for it's release next week! you MUST check out the free download on iTunes... KISS ME, it's off the new album. :)
