"to be someone must be a wonderful thing"- The Jam

[christinafairy]

Last night was spent playing around with Oasis & Strokes tunes, and writing my own music. I think I "discovered" a new chord that sounds brilliant!?!? Maybe it's one of the 1,204,506 chords I don't know yet, or maybe I have learned it and I'm being absent-minded, but it sounds v. cool. Even on a electric guitar that wasn't plugged in....

Spike spikenheimer's post made me realise that I miss playing music and jamming with people. It's only been 2 1/2 months since I've been in my last band, but it feels like lightyears. I remember my last few weeks in London, Stephen (ex-Peaches & Slashing Beauty photographer) would jam with me and he would always say that we'd be the "next White Stripes. Nobody would know what our relationship would be, it'd be great..etc" but considering he just moved to Australia (!!!) I don't see that happening. Considering Heather eire2000 is on holiday in the States I miss that company. I would like to find people to jam with/help me learn more guitar/write music with soon. I adore being on my own and it's really nice, but I would like some people to share it with from time to time.

Last night I also dug out some Blur. It was weird. I knew every word to every song even though I haven't listened to them properly in at least a year or two. I'm re-living my Britpop phase momentarily. I also watched bits of The 2003 MTV Europe Music Awards but I missed both Kylie and The Darkness! which is all I wanted to see. Instead I got Beyonce, Justin Timberlake and Pink, dressed in a sparkly devil outfit. :p

I can't wait to go back to London. Go to Covent Garden (Fred Perry!), eat vegan Thai food, pick up some CDs at HMV/Virgin sale, perhaps go to the Borderline and rock out with pretty boys/girls and crash in Ben's flat. This of course will all be enhanced 10x if Jen decides to be there at the time, even though I'll see her way before that.

And now for a moment of vain-ness: I like my reflection in the computer screen right now! The sunlight is shining in and making cool shadows on my face. You can't see my eyes but just my lips, nose, and hair. I wish I had webcam access right now. Trust me, it looks cool.

Still working on Robin's painting! It still looks way too 1970's. *L*

"To Be Someone" is currently my favourite song....originally done by The Jam, although Noel Gallagher's version is just as pretty. <333 Fin.

i love vain people.
huh. well that sounded much better in my head. but i mean, i don't like people who are like, hating themselves 24/7 and every other second in between.

I know what you mean. I've had it with mopey people myself. *L* There's a fine line between confidient and vain, and I think I'm resting nicely on it. I'm glad you're not all mopey either ;)

oh, about the Jam, could you suggest a few other songs i could download and see whether i like them or not? i've always been hearing so much about them and want to try them out.

you should download anything off of "Sound Affects" -- I don't have the tracklisting right in front of me but that's a pretty good album. :)

ooh, thank you, i'll go off downloading now!

okay! only if you answer this- I'm coming back to the states for Christmas....I still have KaZaa, and I share files. I'm planning on deleting it and getting a new fileshare programme (because of the current sue-ing this summer)- what do you suggest for me?

okay, Jam songs:
Going Underground (my current fav now! the "la la lala" part is the best ;))
Town Called Malice
Carnation
Start!
Down in a Tube Station at Midnight (another fav.)
and of course, To Be Someone.

Those are good starters :)

oh yeah, could I possibly have your email address?

Well, considering my emails must not have gotten through, or you would have responded, (but then again, I can blame that fucking msblaster virus if hotmail just isn't a bitch), I just want to tell you that I found the websites if you're still interested in staying in England. Kes's father will give me all the details next Wednesday, as I am moving to England on that very day. Yes, Hi, it's Sarah. ^_^ Whatever you do, do not call me this weekend, my mother is being a right bitch because of a few things I have done. If you want to contact me, do so through email, which is and always has been peachez_diva@hotmail.com, or you can leave me messages on me deadjournal, which is http://deadjournal.com/users/peachezdiva . If anything, I'd like to hook up with you once I get to England, and I will need a number to call you at once I get there...if you're still interested in me...

I've been trying to email you, and then when my computer died (hence the reasoning I am on my mother's finally) and all this stuff came into play, I haven't been able to get to this journal. I hope you don't think I've abandoned you. You know I couldn't do that.

Love always, Sarah
