Sometimes all I do is watch the sky
Nov. 9th, 2003 07:41 pmI can't write.
It's been two weeks now since I wrote anything that I didn't immediately delete. I don't know what the problem is. I hate it, whatever is is. There's so much disjointedness to everything I put down on paper lately; needless repetition of words and no link between the things I want to say, and while I know writing style is not the major selling point for a Chemistry analysis, I hate to read over what I've written and know it's bad. Just pointless and mechanical, and with no real life to it. Flat writing is all right in science, but not so good in English. We've got coursework next week from all accounts, and I don't want to write it like this.
I have nothing to write about and no good music to listen to, so a lot of the things that get me out of bed in the morning are retreating into the shadows and I don't like that. Regarding the music, I think I must blaspheme and say that I really don't like Something Corporate's second album (third? does Audioboxer count?) very much. It's called North, and before giving it to
shipperkitten for her birthday, Hannah and I copied it several times and distributed it. My own copy is playing as I write this, and while there are songs I like - this one particularly, as it's short and sweet and beautiful - not many have launched themselves at me as truly musical-chill-inducing. I'll grant that a song like Konstantine probably only appears once in the lifetime of a band - U2's With or Without You comes to mind - but all the songs seem to blend together. As said before, Watch the Sky is good, and so is As You Sleep, but, eh. I can't buy any CDs at the moment because I have absolutely no money whatsover - anything I do have will probably go on Christmas presents. I now know what I'm getting for
purplerainbow,
hathy_col and (probably)
shipperkitten. The others are all as yet undecided. I don't mind, because I don't really mind shopping. But as for Christmas... meh.
I don't have anything more to say, really. Nothing has happened today at all.
