life perspective 7

It’s the beginning of the day, there are hundreds of us, crammed into 8 aluminium boxes on wheels, the only sound that you can here is some lady talking on her phone or various music tracks cranking from someone’s iPod. No one speaks to each other we are all strangers forced into each others personal space. The person standing next to you may very well be the man or woman of your dreams they could be your best friend but you refuse to talk.

In contrast the 2 O’clock train home from the city on a Saturday night everyone is loud talking and having so much fun. It could be the alcohol but it could also be that no one is on their way to their jobs, those little things that we do during the week to pass the time and earn that little bit of money to buy that car, to buy that music, go to that gig or to go out on the weekend and meet that guy or girl of your dreams, to run a muck with your best mates.

Unfortunately little pieces of metal and plastic/paper(depending on which country your in) rules our lives, rules our world.

"Your Going to reap Just what you sow" (Perfect Day - Lou Reed)
Thats Karma people fucking karma i really hope its starts to kick in soon I'm really fucking sick of seeing absolute cocksmokers having everything that i want and am working for. I'm sick of seeing assholes who let their parents buy them fucking everything hold themselves above us people who did not come from such an advantaged family slave away just to afford a few things, and actually get by on personality not what we have in this superficial fucking world.

over.

Just a perfect day
Drink sangria in the park
And then later, when it gets dark, we'll go home
Just a perfect day
Feed animals in the zoo
Then later a movie too, and then home

[Chorus:]
Oh it's such a perfect day
I'm glad I spent it with you
Oh such a perfect day
You just keep me hanging x2

Just a perfect day
Problems all left alone
Weekenders on our own
It's such fun

Just a perfect day
You make me forget myself
I thought I was someone else
Someone good

[Chorus]

You're going to reap just what you sow
You're going to reap just what you sow
You're going to reap just what you sow
You're going to reap just what you sow

awesomeness -UPDATED-

ok now this is going to be a change from my usual depressing perspective rants and questioning. this time this post is the top 5 albums to be released this year so far.
I will update this again if another album comes out that knocks one of these 5 out but i highly doubt it will anyways, enjoy


kings of leon - only by the night
this album is fucking brilliant, a much better follow up to Because of the times, with other bands in the world just picking up a guitar for fun these guys pick up a guitar to rock the fuck out. there are no let down tracks on this album so give it a listen especially track 2, crawl which in my opinion is the best track on the album.






Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Dig Lazarus Dig
these boys just keep releasing musical genius after last year releasing an album under the alterego name of grinderman(which was also fucking intense) theyve busted out this classic which picked up 4or5 aria nominations for it and honestly in this day and age a nomination and not winning is better than the award itself, only rarely do the actual deserving artists win. Nick cave himself has been in the industry for longer than I've been alive actually nick cave and the bad seeds have aswell, starting in 1984 theyve busted out music genius for us all to listen to and be elated by. this is a must listen for anyone who loves gritty rock


birds of Tokyo - universes
the musical genius that is Ian Kenny just keeps expanding through both outlets karnivool and of course birds of tokyo these songs are all pure genius and i cannot wait to be cranking these all summer long specially broken bones.











im not putting the album covers up for the last two

Cog - Sharing space
And yet another example of pure Australian musical genius, seriously this band is in their own league both live and recorded, its progressive its hard its heavy and its alot more blatantly political then the new normal or anything from their ep's i highly recommend that you whack this one in the cd player and dont take it out for a long time

-EDIT- alright originally black keys had a position in the top 5 but i bought a few more cd's yesterday and has now been edged out
Eddy Current Suppression Ring - Primary Colours
More Australian genius here, these boys sound like rolling stones crossed with early kings of leon its fucking gold. You should definitely check the tracks which way to go and Sundays Coming and get the cd cranking, I so cannot wait to see these lads at big day out

anyways let us know what you think, if you want you can let me know what ive got right and where ive gone wrong but please nothing to much about metallica's new album

peace out

Faulty: something that does not work as it should or is damaged, preventing it to work correctly.

In lamest terms fucked up.

There is a hole left in my chest from where the knife was removed, and every single fucking time I think that it’s starting to heal up nicely somehow I manage to rip out the stitches and the process has to start all over again.

life perspective 4

Coming to the conclusion that thinking too much isn’t really a good thing, particularly when you try and solve the problem by thinking more.

And Boredom leads to this, Sitting here typing away expressing my thoughts to the world and just hope for someone to read it somewhere down the track. It’s become habit and it has sort of helped to relieve a bit of stress, and a bit of self hatred however questions still pose and some self loathing does continue to bother me.

As time just keeps ticking by so do the problems the social circles come and go, change extremely frequently but always revert in the end, sort of like fashion (this year it’s the 70’s look) things start to sink in like who your real friends are, what mistakes have been made, who you want to be closer friends with and a fuck load of other things along those lines.

On top of all that every now and then one single person is found that you want to share everything with, they usually do one of four things

1) share everything with you then break you

2) Ignore your feelings(usually get the 'just friends' line

3) Acknowledge and let you down gently( also usually gets the 'just friends' line)

4) And sometimes they may just share everything and it all turns out great

Number four only happens to the lucky ones. I’m starting to realise that all the rest might just be worth it just to hit number four one day, I thought I was there once it was brilliant but that all came crashing down, I want to be back there again, hopefully my number four comes soon enough

-Four-

life perspective 3

I truly believe I am destined to be alone. Over the past few months I have taken such massive blows to my ego and self esteem I cannot be fucked trying. And like most as noticed, like most people in this world just simply replace the words cannot be fucked with “to scared” seriously think about it in any situation that will possibly effect the way someone lives, with the result being either extremely positive or somewhat negative do you actually ever hear someone admit that they are scared. It is usually I can’t be bothered or ill do it some other time.

What creates this pattern of behaviour why are we actually scared to take the chance on something that could affect us so positively and why are we so afraid to admit being scared. This journal was made so that I could re-evaluate myself and correct my flaws, to improve myself and fix what I deem to be my fucked up life. Only problem being I do, like many others find myself to be scared to take the chance to change and help myself.

life perspective 2

I swear people in this world are becoming increasingly more oblivious, arrogant and stupid every single fucking day. We are all surrounded by posers and backstabbers, who at the last minute will turn on you and everyone around them if it means that they’re going to hook up one night or make a little bit of profit. Just take a quick moment to think about this how many of your friends you really trust? Are they really friends or are they merely associates?

Whom do we blame for this behaviour? Alas only ourselves are responsible for this dire predicament within the human condition. We all want more money more sex more power. However there is a chance for reprieve and it may just be in the process right now, If the world is able to learn from its mistakes this time round from the catastrophic stock market crash, hopefully greed will be somewhat depleted. I mean seriously how on earth did we not learn from our mistakes in the stock market crash in the late 80’s? 1987 I believe; the whole western world basically went into recession for most of the early nineties. So now we can only hope that all this selfish and me me me attitude can be resolved and passed on to our personal lives and recondition the human race.

Regrettably deep down I know that this won’t happen, I know that people will never change and we will be our own downfall. People as a group generally don’t learn we just float in and around life and follow what everyone else is doing because really they just cannot be fucked. And the handful of people that set to change the world generally doesn’t have the cash flow to do it or they manage to get it and then forget what they set out to do in the first place.

Some people would call me a pessimist for that and for the most part of it I agree, however I do hold positive thoughts and hopes for life and all that jazz but ultimately my basic view on pessimism and optimism and shit is “pessimist is just a name made up by idealists to call realists”

life perspective 1

It’s funny how shit can just sneak up on you and change your perspective on life and living in general, on top of which it’s slightly disturbing to know that one single aspect can control your life your thoughts and your actions. That one aspect of course can be the most pleasant thing in the world but then again it could also tear you to shreds, ruining you emotionally.

To overcome such an aspect is an accomplishment to say the least until you realise that you are just constantly spiralling downward repeating the same mistakes but just with less tolerance each time. It brings me to wonder what the fuck I am doing with my life and where do I intend to go, it makes me wonder who I want to share all avenues of my life with and who I want shut out completely. furthermore why am I so content with this situation I’m in, I’ve spent the last few months making sure that I didn’t end up here but I find my self undoubtedly standing on a landmine.

The uncertainty behind the notion of love and the four lettered cliché itself also leads me to question why do I continuously find oneself in a situation where I’ve just been broken and have found another girl that I can tell myself I’m in love with and move on from the previous one no matter how much they’ve influenced my life how happy they’ve made me and how many tiny pieces they have broken me into. How do people put up with all this uncertainty all the lies, cheating and betrayal why does the ideology of love make us blind. And how the fuck did I end up falling for a girl that I’ve been trying not to for the past few months.

Perhaps It is because I have finally moved on from the last girl and allowed myself to see what else was out there, to bad I’m yet again to scared to do anything about it, the last shot I took was awesome while it lasted but when it ended, I really did not know what to do with myself, suicide was a serious option, there was biccies, weed, alcohol, cocaine and people I was close to were hurt from some of my actions, I even cut some people off completely for a while. I apologise to you all for my behaviour but thankyou so much for not bailing on me even though it would have been well deserved.
