a good song

this is probably one of my favourite music videos ever. it captures a certain reality so well. the song itself is really good but the imagery changes everything. for me more so i suppose, because it reminds me of a certain london someone. not so much the words, but a time and place and perhaps the overall feel. as well as it being an exact recollection of scotland... me walking the streets of edinburgh two nights in a row, alone & completely drunk, at clubs and just meeting random people and making friends. this was filmed in paris but the brick streets and some shots are straight nostalgia of edinburgh. lovely.

i can't stop craving london. i actually hope it'll stop soon because it's agony. i'll be going back this summer if all goes well.

this bit makes me miss new york though...

all the water left...

i woke up sick. ate some soup, drank tea, and read bits out of the collosus. i don't know when this thing is going to be satisfied. it's hard to care about much right now. i want to, i just can't bring myself to.

i was expecting a little more out of rob bell wednesday night. he didn't talk about his book one bit. i was hoping he would. he said he didn't want to because he wrote it, which is understandable but still weird. instead he came out and semi-jokingly said the q & a session would be as good as we made it. i wish he would have presented something. it took the audience about 15 or 20 minutes to get warmed up and comfortable with him. and even some of the better questions that were asked were left with vague and ambiguous feeling answers, leaving me wanting more explanations. it was good to just have him in front of me though. he's changed my perspective on a whole lot.

in other interests, daft punk confirmed their show with the rapture at the greek theatre in berkeley on july 27th. fun.

why do i want to feel numb? i'm sure it has a lot to do with not having money or a job and having bills to pay. along with living in the san jose area right now. at the moment, it's hard to believe the whole pitch about making yourself happy where you are, not having the place determining it. how does one remain unaffected?
