    It has been quite a busy week for me, though not as stressful as one might expect.
     
    Starting with thursday/friday last week, where I had to get up at 5am to get to work at 6am. They were cleaning out a storage room with files dating back over 30 years. First my colleague and I had to move them out of the room into the hallway, and then into another hallway where we also had to sort them into shelves.
    And afterwards we had to get back to our respective jobs in patient-care to work the remainder of our shift.
    Luckily we got decent breakfast.
     
    My mothers longest friend celebrated her birthday on the weekend as well, which was a cake and food-filled experience, though fun, since I got to talk to some very nice people and see some of the features an iPhone had to offer. Quite the amazing little tool.
     
    The following week wasn't much better work-wise, but the mood went upwards nonetheless, which was a huge relief since I find it hard to work in an environment with people constantly bumping into each other.
    The patients kept me busy all shift from 8 to 4, whether they were having requests or needed to be brought someplace to get an x-ray done or the like. Not to complain though, after all its what I'm getting paid for, besides I am still grateful that there is no paperwork to care of in the afternoon.
     
    Finally though, I managed to finish the last piece of Artwork that goes into my Portfolio for my art-school/institute application for next year.
    We had guests over that evening, former colleagues of my dad, so that was a nice evening as well, and since I managed to get the artwork done it was easy to just relax without knowing there is work waiting for me.
    I need to find a good copyshop where I can print my portfolio though.
     
    Anyway, all the new art in the works, 5 pieces in total, are now all just for fun and should be done sometime in the near future
     
    Although there wont be much progress this weekend.
    The brass-orchestra I play 1st Bugle in is in the process of recording a CD this weekend and the result should be available at the end of November.
    I even play a solo-part in one arrangement. I give you a hint: Cpt. Jack Sparrow
     
    So, this is basically what's going on right now. Fun times ^^

    "Riders on the Storm" by The Doors

    Riders on the storm

    An actor out on loan
    Riders on the storm

    Theres a killer on the road
    His brain is squirmin like a toad
    Take a long holiday
    Let your children play
    If ya give this man a ride
    Sweet memory will die
    Killer on the road, yeah

    Girl ya gotta love your man
    Girl ya gotta love your man
    Take him by the hand
    Make him understand
    The world on you depends
    Our life will never end
    Gotta love your man, yeah

    Wow!

    Riders on the storm
    Riders on the storm
    Into this house were born
    Into this world were thrown
    Like a dog without a bone
    An actor out alone
    Riders on the storm

    Riders on the storm
    Riders on the storm

    This could be the saddest dusk
    I've ever seen
    Turn to a miracle
    High alive
    My mind is racing
    As it always will
    My hand is tired, my heart aches
    I'm half a world away here
    My head sworn
    To go it alone
    And hold it along
    Haul it along
    And hold it
    Go it alone
    Hold it along and hold, hold
     
    This lonely deep sit hollow
    I'm half a world
    Half the world away
    My shoes are gone
    My life spent
    I had too much to drink
    I didn't think
    And I didn't think of you
    I guess that's all I needed
    To go it alone
    And hold it along
    Haul it along
    And hold it
    Blackbirds, backwards, forwards and fall and hold, hold
     
    Oh, this lonely world is wasted
    Pathetic eyes high alive
    Blind to the tide that turns the sea
    This storm it came up strong
    It shook the trees
    And blew away our fear
    I couldn't even hear
     
    To go it alone
    And hold it along
    Haul it along
    And hold it
    To go it alone
    And hold it along
    Haul it along
    To go it alone
    And hold it along
    Haul it along
    And hold it
    Blackbirds, backwards, forwards, and fall and hold hold
     
    This could be the saddest dusk
    I've ever seen
    Turn to a miracle
    High alive
    My mind is racing
    As it always will
    My hands tired, my heart aches
    I'm half a world away and go

    How different people are. Not character-wise, but physically.
     
    Some people I get coming out of surgery seem as if they'd just woken up on a fine sunday morning and then there are others who groan in pain.
     
    Some can leave the wakeup room less then 10 minutes after they've arrived and then there are others staying for 4 hours or more until they are brought back to their rooms.
     
    And some really take well to the procedures and are painfree, or we get some like the woman today that we had to load full with painkillers and even then it took an hour before her condition improved (And by loaded I mean really dosed. Any healthy normal person probably would have been knocked out by then.)
     
    On another note, one of the anaesthesiologists showed me pictures of his first son today. It's quite amazing to see somebody become a parent.

    Have you been annoyed today already, has it been a bad day? Did you ask yourself again why nobody's doing anything?
    You don't need to accept what you dislike,
    If you've got your head for more then wearing a hat
    Woohoo!
     
    It's not your fault that world is the way it is,
    It'd be your fault if it stays that way!
    It's not your fault that world is the way it is,
    It'd be your fault if it stays that way!!
     
    Don't believe anybody who says you can't do anything,
    Those who say that are just afraid of change
    They are the same who says everything's fine the way it is
    And if you want to change anything your practically a terrorist
     
    It's not your fault that world is the way it is,
    It'd be your fault if it stays that way!
    It's not your fault that world is the way it is,
    It'd be your fault if it stays that way!
    Cause everybody who doesn't want to change the world
    Signs her deathsentence
     
    "Let's sit down an talk, because in this here our land,
    Theoretically everybody is terribly tolerant,
    Words don't want to move, Word's don't hurt anybody,
    So let's talk about, discussions are ok."
     
    No!-Get back out on the streets, get back to demonstrating,
    Because those who've given in can only loose,
    Those that that screw you over you elected yourself,
    So let them hear your voice cause every voice counts!
     
    It's not your fault that world is the way it is,
    It'd be your fault if it stays that way!
    It's not your fault that world is the way it is,
    It'd be your fault if it stays that way!
     
    It's not your fault that world is the way it is,
    It would be your fault if it stays that way...

    Have you seen the little pieces of the people we have been? Little pieces blowing' gently on the wind
    They have flown down California
    They have landed in L.A.
    Little pieces slowly settling on the waves
     
    I'm one of a million pieces fallen on the ground
    It's one of the reasons when we say goodbye
    We'll still come around We will come around
     
    I have waited for tomorrow from December 'til today
    I have started loving sorrow along the way
    I am calling from some city
    And I won't be there too long
    I could wait and I could waste away
    But what comes back is I hear you say we're gone
     
    For all of the times that I go spinning up and down
    When all of the things have died between us
    Well, we'll still come around We will come around
     
    After I've been missing for a while
    And you hear that summer's song
    Haven't all the fading lines lingered on?
     
    What I know is: she's going
    When you know it, it's alright
    So you put yourself between you and your pride
    If you wait for what's coming
    And you listen to her lies,
    Then she'll say the things you need to hear
    And the only one who'll disappear is you
     
    And one of the million lies she said
    Is "All of the things you love are dead."
    But I've seen what she thinks is love
    And it leaves me laughing so we'll still come around

    Emotional pain can be like a bad itch. Scratching might give momentary relief but then it comes back worse and after awhile you get bloody fingernails.
     
    Unless of course you have some lotion.
     
    Just a funny thought that crossed my mind.

    I fight a war I don't fully understand with a weapon that I do not truely master with the excitment of a mans innner child.
     
    Ok, actually that's just me saying: Gosh that game is freaking awesome even though I never had a Playstation before and don't know the prequel and suck at playing with the controller!

    I am whatever Gotham needs me to be. Call it in.

    They'll hunt you.

    You'll hunt me. You'll condemn me, set the dogs on me. Because that's what needs to happen. Because sometimes...the truth isn't good enough. Sometimes people deserve more. Sometimes people deserve to have their faith rewarded.

    Why is he running, Dad?

    Because we have to chase him.

    He didn't do anything wrong.

    Because he's the hero that Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So, we'll hunt him, because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Dark Knight.




    Why do I feel that way right now as well?

    On another note, if I ever make a movie, I'll hire Hans Zimmer for the score.

    PS: Blu-Ray rocks!

    Take off your shoes... Take off yourself Take off your rented mental health
    Take off your raincoat... settle down
    Take off your nightmare and your frown
    There is a place for you to go
    To see another ringer in a rock show
    Take my pretense for a time
    Cause I want to say to you
     
    I'm nobody without you...buddy
    My long lost friend
     
    If you're not here to hear me scream
    Am I silent like a dream
    Where all the dragons are my friends
    Each night we meet our bitter ends
    Do I need you to make me real
    Like Wheeler spinning his own wheel
    Quantum strings within my brain
    Popping sanities insane
     
    I'm nobody without you...buddy
    My long lost friend
     
    Not everybody has a brain
    Not everybody's going sane
    Not everybody wishes well
    Not everybody's heaven's ######
    Sometimes there's someone to blame
    Sometimes a place for shame
    Sometimes good's better than bad
    Sometimes good's better than bad
    Sometimes good's better than bad
    Sometimes you're better than me
     
    Heaven fell on herself tonight
    As the devil met me in the wishing well
    And in that moment I found myself knowing
    That in the end it's just about you and me
    Nothing smaller or larger
    Though dragons are good for the soul
    Nothing can be better than baring yourself for another...
    Open for scrutiny, ridicule, and indulgence
    Therein lies the balls, and the mind, and the heart...
    As fear is truly the Mindkiller...
    When nothing is left...
    Everything is gained...
    You see I wish I was a poet
    But I know as we go round and round
    Though endings are never ever happy
    It's the happy moments along the way
    That in the end
    Make it...ok...

    Give me some water, I'm thirsty, I walked all this way alone
    Every single step, foot by foot,
    From somwhere out there, very far away from here
     
    I swam through the ocean, fed on water and salt,
    only to come here and finally see you
    I was in every desert one can think of
    Almost giving up to keep on moving
     
    I often took wrong turns, was blind for too long
    Everywhere and nowhere I searched for you
    And for years I walked through rain,
    Or were it tears? I don't know anymore
     
     
    If love is all that counts
    I will walk the same way for you again
    If love is all that counts
    then no price will be too high too see you
     
     
    Do you see the bag I carry with me?
    My history and my whole life are in it
     
    You can take it from me and burn it
    It is full of memories I don't want anymore
    Yesterday is worthless to me and tomorrow doesn't matter
    As long as you can promise me you'll hold me
     
     
    If love is all that counts
    I will walk the same way for you again
    If love is all that counts
    I will follow you to the ends of this world
     
     
    I want to believe what is written in the bible
    And what they taught us in every TV-show:
    that it doesn't matter in the end
    if you win or lose
     
     
    If love is all that counts
    I'd walk the same way for you again
    If love is all that counts
    I will follow you to the ends of this world
     
    No price is too high to see you
     
    "Was zählt" by Die Toten Hosen
     
    It's a German Punkband from my hometown, and this is my favourite song by them.
    No special intention behind this entry, just a cool song.

    I was in another lifetime one of toil and blood When blackness was a virtue and the road was full of mud
    I came in from the wilderness a creature void of form
    "Come in" she said
    "I'll give you shelter from the storm".
     
    And if I pass this way again you can rest assured
    I'll always do my best for her on that I give my word
    In a world of steel-eyed death and men who are fighting to be warm
    "Come in" she said
    "I'll give you shelter from the storm".
     
    Not a word was spoke between us there was little risk involved
    Everything up to that point had been left unresolved
    Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm
    "Come in" she said
    "I'll give you shelter from the storm".
     
    I was burned out from exhaustion buried in the hail
    Poisoned in the bushes and blown out on the trail
    Hunted like a crocodile ravaged in the corn
    "Come in" she said
    "I'll give you shelter from the storm".
     
    Suddenly I turned around and she was standing there
    With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair
    She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns
    "Come in" she said
    "I'll give you shelter from the storm".
     
    Now there's a wall between us something there's been lost
    I took too much for granted got my signals crossed
    Just to think that it all began on a long-forgotten morn
    "Come in" she said
    "I'll give you shelter from the storm".
     
    Well the deputy walks on hard nails and the preacher rides a mount
    But nothing really matters much it's doom alone that counts
    And the one-eyed undertaker he blows a futile horn
    "Come in" she said
    "I'll give you shelter from the storm".
    I've heard newborn babies wailing like a mourning dove
    And old men with broken teeth stranded without love
    Do I understand your question man is it hopeless and forlorn
    "Come in" she said
    "I'll give you shelter from the storm".
     
    In a little hilltop village they gambled for my clothes
    I bargained for salvation and they gave me a lethal dose
    I offered up my innocence and got repaid with scorn
    "Come in" she said
    "I'll give you shelter from the storm".
     
    Well I'm living in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line
    Beauty walks a razor's edge someday I'll make it mine
    If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born
    "Come in" she said
    "I'll give you shelter from the storm"

    Hmmm...Isn't is supposed to be warmer outside? 
    More friendly, open?
     
    Sun shining, couples walking in the park?
     
    Instead it has been raining more or less constantly since Monday evening.
     
    Thank goodness I have my moms car right now.
     
    Otherwise I propably would have caught another cold already if I had to ride my bike now.
     
    6 days left in school...I still haven't really realized that it'll be over...

    Once upon a time you dressed so fine You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
    People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall"
    You thought they were all kiddin' you
    You used to laugh about
    Everybody that was hangin' out
    Now you don't talk so loud
    Now you don't seem so proud
    About having to be scrounging for your next meal.
     
    How does it feel
    How does it feel
    To be without a home
    Like a complete unknown
    Like a rolling stone?
     
    You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
    But you know you only used to get juiced in it
    And nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street
    And now you find out you're gonna have to get used to it
    You said you'd never compromise
    With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
    He's not selling any alibis
    As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
    And ask him do you want to make a deal?
     
    How does it feel
    How does it feel
    To be on your own
    With no direction home
    Like a complete unknown
    Like a rolling stone?
     
    You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns
    When they all come down and did tricks for you
    You never understood that it ain't no good
    You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
    You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
    Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
    Ain't it hard when you discover that
    He really wasn't where it's at
    After he took from you everything he could steal.
     
    How does it feel
    How does it feel
    To be on your own
    With no direction home
    Like a complete unknown
    Like a rolling stone?
     
    Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
    They're drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made
    Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts and things
    But you'd better lift your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe
    You used to be so amused
    At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
    Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
    When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
    You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.
     
    How does it feel
    How does it feel
    To be on your own
    With no direction home
    Like a complete unknown
    Like a rolling stone?

    No. Not an actual saying, just a songtitle by R.E.M. 
    Anyway. I was looking through the basement a few days ago and found my dads old guitar. Or not his guitar, just a guitar we owned. Anyway, I tuned it with some help and maybe if I invest enough time I can actually learn to strum a little.
     
    It's just more difficult to switch chords then I initially thought.
     
    And before any of those of you who actually play guitar for real feel inclined to give me tips: I've really just barely started. ^^
     
    Anyway, keep save everyone (yes. Everyone.)

    Working all day for a mean little man

    With a clip-on tie and a rub-on tan
    He's got me running 'round the office like a dog around a track
    But when I get home,
    You're always there to rub my back

    Hey Julie,
    Look what they're doing to me
    Trying to trip me up
    Trying to wear me down
    Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
    And I'd never make it through without you around

    Hours on the phone making pointless calls
    I got a desk full of papers that means nothing at all
    Sometimes I catch myself staring into space
    Counting down the hours 'til I get to see your face

    Hey Julie,
    Look what they're doing to me
    Trying to trip me up
    Trying to wear me down
    Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
    And I'd never make it through with out you around
    No, I'd never make it through with out you around

    How did it come to be
    That you and I must be
    Far away from each other every day?
    Why must I spend my time
    Filling up my mind
    With facts and figures that never add up anyway?
    They never add up anyway

    Working all day for a mean little guy
    With a bad toupee and a soup-stained tie
    He's got me running 'round the office
    Like a gerbil on a wheel
    He can tell me what to do
    But he can't tell me what to feel

    Hey Julie,
    Look what they're doing to me
    Trying to trip me up
    Trying to wear me down
    Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
    And I'd never make it through with out you around
    No, I'd never make it through without you around
    No, I'd never make it through with out you around

    I still haven't really realized it... 
    It's a hard thing to grasp. But on April 4th I will no longer be in school...after 13 years!
     
    It's exciting and scary and everything at the same time
  19. Vezok's Friend
    I can't get to sleep I think about the implications
    Of diving in too deep
    And possibly the complications
     
    Especially at night
    I worry over situations
    I know I'll be alright
    Perhaps it's just imagination
     
    Day after day it reappears
    Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
    Ghosts appear and fade away
     
    Alone between the sheets
    Only brings exasperation
    It's time to walk the streets
    Smell the desperation
     
    At least there's pretty lights
    And though there's little variation
    It nullifies the night from overkill
     
    Day after day it reappears
    Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
    Ghosts appear and fade away
    Come back another day
     
    I can't get to sleep
    I think about the implications
    Of diving in too deep
    And possibly the complications
     
    Especially at night
    I worry over situations
    I know I'll be alright
    It's just overkill
     
    Day after day it reappears
    Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
    Ghosts appear and fade away
    Ghosts appear and fade away
    Ghosts appear and fade away
