talk to you later james!

Cool thanks James! I need to get some sleep now as I've got class in the morning and it's almost 4 already lol

yeah yeah i understand that part, and I just put Ms. But the next box before the 'surname one' were we seriously just supposed to put the initials of our first, middle, and last name?

HI BABY WIFEY! :D

I AM SERIOUS! I bought tix for both dates too actually I figured I might as well just in case something would potentially fall through for one but not the other. I just hope I get my damn confirmation e-mails soon so I can stop worrying for GOOD and just KNOW I have my tix finally!!!!!!

And aww that's so sweet of you to order an extra ticket just in case! As soon as I get my confirmation e-mail (which hopefully it is verrrrrry soon) I'll let you know so we can figure out this extra ticket business! I'm trying so hard to not write in all caps right now and it's really difficult plus it's 3:30 in the effing morning so I'm tired as monkeys! (you've gotten me hooked on using 'monkeys' as a term now lol)

HJKADFKJSDFKSJFAJ!!!!!!!!!!! CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU!

yeah i know...i'm just so impatient! and just to make sure I did it right, can you tell me the proper way to fill the blanks for your name? what was the blank "initial" meant to stand for? I just skipped it and wrote my full name in the last blank

Thanks, bb! Have you gotten your confirmation e-mail yet? I'm nervous for mine lol

DALIA YO GUESS WHAT!

I might be acting super crazy ridiculous right now, but I'm going to wake myself up at 3 AM this morning to try and get me a presale ticket for the Wemberly Stadium Muse gig Sept. 11th! I KNOW It's probably really farfetched for me to think I can go....but If I can save up money for me to fly over to London for like 3-4 days (and only miss a couple days of school hehe) I'm totally going to do it! And if it doesn't work out, I'll just try to sell or swap my ticket to some other lucky Muser.

SO I'm super excited to try and do this! Like I said, it might be completely lesbian of me to have this idea right now but I am so desperate to see Muse live, and in WEMBLEY of all places that I'd be a tard not to at least try!

And you better be going yourself missy because if I have the chance to actually go I'd be pissed as monkeys if I don't end up meeting up with you!!!

Talk to you sooooon<3 and wish me luck!

Yeahhhhh such is life innit....*sigh* ( I still love that smiley too )

OMG! You saw MUUUUSE! YAY! Everyone seems to have seen them now except for me! I'm actually going to try to snag a ticket during their presale this morning (3 AM for me to be exact ) Just in case I can find a way to go next autumn...although with my bank account as it is right now we'll just have to see how that goes! If I can get a ticket and be able to go to London for a short weekend holiday we'll definitely have to meet up!!!!!

Ahhh I gotcha! I'd be gutted too, MK Ultra would be so immense live!

I think I might just go ahead and purchase the presale tickets....if I can find a way to fly my bum over to London to see them at Wembley then I'll be the happiest girl in the world! And if for some reason it seems impossible, well...I can always try to sell my tickets to another happy Muser later on in the year. Maybe I'm being a bit hasty with this...but I'd rather just have a ticket in case I CAN find a way to go, rather than not even have the option.

Have you decided yet if you're for sure going/not going?

And that's sweet you can just listen to xfm while on the job and crank it up and mosh with yourself whenever MUSE is on! You're co-worker sounds tres awesome and laid back which is def. very good! The only way he could be supermassively-awesome though is if he's a fan of Muse himself lol I'm such a Muse-supremacist....but don't apologize for rambling on about you! You know I always like to hear about your goings on! I feel like I've been rambling about meself now for the whole message and I haven't even asked you about anyfink Well, I know for sure that 99% of your thoughts at this point are still your Muse gigs and the Matt note, which I could never blame you at all for! But other than those exciting events what else is going on across the pond and in your life missy?! Any plans or events coming your way now that the Muse gigs have passed?

And ooohhhh maaaan my completely crazy and random ass dream! haha! I'm glad you got as much of a kick out of it as I did! I srsly woke up and was like WOAH WTF just happened?! But I was also lol-ing because I can't remember if I told you this before but we were also dressed as complete and utter tards it was just like "HELLO 80's!" So random! But yes the Royal Family was well insulted by our presence and actions to say the least haha. And that's also cool/funny you had a dream with me in it and I looked like a completely different girl The funny thing is is that I can totally see that happening in real life, us just being drunk and talking about how we've been friends for 20 years bahaha! Which would make me -1 year old when we first met

OKAY on to spaff more of THE RESISTANCE!!!! AHHH I want to hear MK Ultra live now SO BADLY! If seeing/hearing it live made you appreciate it that much more than it srsly must be complete epicness! (But then again, hearing any Muse song live makes it 10000x better!) But still! Spidery-riffs FTW! Ahhh Exogenesis: Overture?!?! *melts* and CAVE?!?! eeeeeee! I need to see Muse, STAT! seriously going to be one of the biggest highlights of my life I just know it, and that's what makes me so damn impatient because I just want to see them NOW! I WANT IT NOOOOOOWWWWW! lol. But okay on to foreal spaff the ALBUM! lol (and i'll try to stop abusing the '!' from here on out, but trust me it'll be hard haha)

Well, we've agreed now that we both love MK Ultra...even if it's not our faaaavorite song on the album, it's still a very Musey and awesome song nonetheless. And I have the honors of picking the next one?! Hmmmm well, seeing as I've already mentioned that this is one, if not my actual fave on the album right now, I pick UNNATURAL SELECTION!

Okay, so the start with the church organ and Matt singing is a GREAT build-up. I srsly think Matt's voice gets better with each album, because he sounds amaaaazing right off the bat with this song. and then...... the guitar and drums hits you like BAM and all of a sudden you're banging your head and air-drumming along with the beat uncontrollably! I think the opening riff is serious wock'n'woll and i LOVE it haha. And then the first verse hits and it's so powerful and angsty and it's almost that you just can't help but get completely sucked into the whole song right then and there. Then the minor break down before the chorus is the perfect transition to the ever-building chorus itself! So, as a whole, I think the first half of the song is completely wicked. And THEN the COMPLETE break down to the bluesy and heavier part of the song imo. The guitar and bass together in this part are immense and just send chills down my spine during each listen. And Matt comes in and screams his lines and they just seem so heartfelt and full of emotion that it just takes over your mind and your heart at the same time. And the guitar-solo right before the line "Injustice is the norm" is so simple yet so effective because it just all blends together with the emotion of this part of the song perfectly. And then before you know it, you're transitioning back into the pre-chorus buildup and the chorus itself and you're banging your head and pumping your fist all over again! THEN! (have I used this word enough yet?! haha) as if it couldn't get any more rock/metal...the ending riff just sends you into a complete METAL FRENZY!

So I feel like I just went through the whole song and talked about what it makes you feel like rather than going into huge detail with the music itself...lol but I figured I'd give that method a go and see how your thoughts and feelings compare with my own! I'm excited to hear/read what you have to say about this song deary!

Well, I feel like I should wrap this up...I've got to start on some hw (surprise!) And I don't want to cause you to feel like you have to take a nap after reading this because you're worn out from my intense ramblage! But I'm also tres happy we're keeping in touch more often now And I agree, if we don't have the chance to write each other our 3 page novels like usual, even just quick drop in's and saying HI! would be muchmuchmuch better than nothing. I hope you're still doing well mah shweet and I can't wait to hear from you soon! LOVE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUS (btw, the 5 year old nicknames for me are tres hilarious so keep 'em coming!) Bye wifey!!!!

Sorry about that mini-ramble...I just had to share a fraction of the frustration I've been dealing with when it comes to their relationship! But! On to other more exciting things! Like, doing homework on Halloween! woo! I usually like to spend some time with friends or something, but this year I am just an old granny lesbian like you At least you got to semi-dress up and scare some kiddies with your AWESOME V for Vendetta mask! great movie

And awwww we have had lots of randomly-stupid-but-still-hilarious convos in the past I did practically christen your bafroom with you you're right! Oh you terrorist trash, you naw you're no trash, you're completely wicked and one of the coolest people I've ever not met lol (and WTF bumlicking?!?! that srsly made me ROFLOLOLOL!) I'm also tres excited for the day when we get to finally meet, which you're right, WILL happen someday! It's gonna be epic when we get to meet each other for the first time I can already tell! Hopefully I can start foreal planning my study abroad program because sometime next spring ideally would be my choice! (although I also would like to plan a time when I know I could see Muse hehe) Isn't that bad that I'm planning my studies around meeting friends and seeing Muse? haha. So you need to keep me updated with what you hear about Muse gigs and tours around Londres okay?! It would be so sweet if we could go to a Muse gig together!!!! I really would like to be able to go to one of their awesome stadium tours next autumn, but I just think that would be too soon for me to be able to plan a program *le sigh*

Yes the weekend and dinner with my fambly was good! Nice and relaxing which was what I needed (lol I feel like that's always what I need ) And now I'm just looking forward to Thanksgiving so I can have a few days off from school and just be able to hang around with the fam and eat my little heart out haha. Aw I'm sure your mom/mum understands how important Muse is to you and there's no hard feelings! Esp. if her and your dad just went out to eat with friends and stuff. I know my mum would be so happy for me just to be able to see Muse, regardless if it was on her birthday lol. And aww what fragrance did you get her?! And awww Jake is good!!!! He's actually made a facebook that little dickens hehe. Since I've deactivated mine for now, I'll occasionally go on his (which I haven't been on for a long time now that I think of it....) you should add him he'd be more than thrilled to be official friends with you! (I know, I'm a huge loser for making a facebook for my dog) But his name is Jakezors Klein so if you feel like doin a quick search-a-roo for him, go for it! I'm sure you'd love his profile pic too I actually dressed him up as a squirrel for Halloween, which he hated, but I absolutely LOVED! And I'm pretty sure I posted pictures of him up there so now you def. need to add him so you can see his cute nugget body in his squirrel costume eeeee!

OH MY GOD. OH. MY. GOD. I don't even think words can describe how excited I am for you Dalia!!!! SERIOUSLY! OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You and your damn colored trousers SAVE THE DAY! Once you get your personalized Matteh note you HAVE to take pictures of it and show me OKAY!?!?! OKAY!!!!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! ( I wouldn't be surprised if the caps lock thing comes in here and lower-cases all of my excitement haha)

But wow I honestly am SO thrilled to hear that not only you were able to go to BOTH Londres shows and rock your face off, BUT you were able to meet a toooootally random guy to swap tix and he was able to make it backstage and get you a signed note from Matt! That's such an unbelievably odd but SUPER circumstance!!!! I think a good orange-trousered WAAAAAAAHEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYY!!! is in definite need to describe the epic awesomeness that is your life (I just realized I haven't used "wahey" in SO long! What a perfect time to bring it back )

But okay, I'm going to really try hard to move on with my message without going back and spaffing all over again about your Mattttttty note! Even though it might seem like no one else is as hyper right now as you are, KNOW that I'm over here on the other side of ze world spastically trying to type you this message without spelling errors because my damn fingers can't type as fast as my hyper-active brain wants it to because I'm so excited for you! And now I just sound like a tard!! Ahh well, moving on now fosrs!

Yes my classes are still riveting! getting even more demanding now, as they always do right before Thanksgiving break. I'm srsly loving my classes still but I can't wait for the semester to be over so I can just have a month off to heal my completely fried brain! And I know what you mean....I'm still trying to make sure I don't over-stress myself and to relax here and there because I know how stress can completely F up your mind and just make you more stressed because you feel like you're just a huge lesbian now! And I probably will just fuck around once I graduate (whenever that will be!) Just so I can take some time to appreciate being out of school before just jumping into a brand new job and getting sucked into the soooopermassive black hole that is The Working World right off the bat! But I'm glad to hear that as busy as you still are with your job, you still like it muchlies! Even though it's a bummer to always come home tired and just want to sleeep, as long as you still enjoy waking up in the morning and doing it all over again that's a sign you're doing something right! amirite?!

And awww yes S-C-O-T-T and I are doing well! The stress is getting to us more now since it's just been so constant lately, which I think makes us jump at each other's throats more often now but at the end of the day we're both still happy and know that it's just our really busy and demanding schedules that's making us more irritable lately. *le sigh* such is life....but yes, we've passed the pregnancy stage luckily and now onto 1 year, or a 3 month old baby if you view it that way haha! And yes Scott foreal likes you a lot! And I'm glad you like him also! From what you know of him at least haha. Someday we WILLLLL meet each other (duh!) and if you can meet Scott also that would be so awesome! And thanks for wishing us well sweeties

God I don't even want to spend my time worrying about my delirious roommate and her crazy bf. I had a short chat with the both of them a few days ago and his views on relationships are seriously fucked up. He feels like he's honestly not responsible for anything that makes her upset, and that it's her problem for being "nitpicky all of the time about everything. And the prime example of her being nitpicky was her getting upset whenever he would be 4+ hours late to come pick her up or meet up with her when they had plans to hang out. And even worse, his reasons for being late were because he was having fun at the frat (yes, he's in a fraternity ) or saying it's not important what time he shows up as long as he just shows up in the end. It's like UMM EXCUSE ME BUT, WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU?! ANd yes, they still talk about marriage! So, I really don't know what to think about them anymore, I'm just doing my best to stay out of their drama from here on out!

Ahhh not surprised....Feeling Good seems to make it into every damn show now. /bitter

but it's MUUUUUUSE! I would be so effing mental still if I were you I can't waaaaait until I can go see them! And ooooo was MK Ultra really good live?! I know that New Born and SS are always epic, and I am so pumped to go completely nuts when they're played :D And ahhhh I wish so badly to be able to go to one of their stadium shows they just announced Tell me there's a way Obi! I must find a way!!!!!

Okay, I'm starting to get a tad fangirly so I'm going to cut myself off from this message now so when you read it you don't immediately do this:

JESSSSS Hi thar!

I know , I really haven't been on here much at all over the last couple of months...constant exams, papers, projects, etc. going on at uni all the time *sigh* but I'm trying to check up on here more often now as I miss all of yous! Aside from being uber busy alllllll the time I'm doing pretty good! How are you doing my dear?!

YAAAY!!

Was that your first time seeing them?! I still can't wait until I can see them... EEEE! (sometime this spring/summer I'm still thinking is when they'll do a proper US tour....)

and that's hilarious, hopefully I can get tickets on the floor so I'll be able to mosh along with the crowd:\mm/:

What was their setlist? If you can remember it hehe

You're in a good mood today? (Well, 2 days ago now) that's good! Hopefully you're having just as good of a day today also? And who did you see?!?!

I knowwwwww I hardly have time to spend on here anymore it makes me so sad! My halloween was super lame I actually stayed in with the bf and did homework But I've had a crazy last few weeks at school so I really haven't been able to do much partying at all unfortunately...but college is going great! Apart from being really stressful pretty much all of the time I'm loving my classes so I'm enjoying it But how have YOUUUUU been?!?! What's been going on in your life Ky!

and god that avatar was for the theme of the month like 3 months ago goes to show how outdated I am

KYYYYYYYy I misssssss youuuuuuuu

Miss you Obs, this is one of the few times I've been on here in the last few days and I wanted to stop in and say, "good day to you!"

Herrroooo I'm back! Sorry I had to jet off so abruptly...I'm home this weekend visiting my parents and they wanted to treat me to dinner n'aww. What's been new with you and your fam lately? And I want to know if work is still going well and everyfink! Even though I feel like I ask you that in every message, I'm always curious to know how the day-to-day life is treating you! And guess what! I actually had a super crazy dream that you were in just a couple weeks ago! I don't remember all the details anymore, but I do remember we were somehow eating dinner with the royal family because you apparently are best friends with everyone:LOL: It was pretty much just that except for the whole time we were both being super embarrassing and overall really ridiculous and everyone else that were guests were just looking at us like we were complete tardasauruses! It made me super pumped for when we can FOR REAL have Stephtard and Failia moments! especially in front of the royal family:LOL: Random I know!

But anyways! SPAMMAGERY OF THE RESISTANCE! Specifically: MK ULTRA

But before that, I must say...excellent review of TR Dalia! AS USUAL you captured all of my thoughts completely, I couldn't agree with you more!

You've hit the nail on the head with this one tbh. I agree it's not my favorite track on the album either (I'm also a huge sucker for Resistance, but Unnatural Selection miiiiight just be my overall fave so far!) but it's definitely pwopa wock 'n woll innit! I remember reading or hearing, I think it was through Zane Lowe that it had 'spidery' riffs and that's exactly what comes to mind when I hear the guitar at the beginning. The lyrics are definitely powerful (as usual) And the music build-up before the chorus is epic and Muse-like as usual and YES! I'm so glad you mentioned the guitar and string collaboration during the first "they're breaking through" bit because that was one of the first things that stuck out to me when I listened to this song. That and of COURSE the epic riffage right after! I can't wait to see this song live because I can just tell there will be so much raw emotion and energy behind it (like pretty much every live Muse song amirite lol). But wow I feel like I'm basically repeating what you said and just rambling in incoherent sentences trying to do this! I really suck at typing out my thoughts or opinions out on songs, I do such a better job talking about this kind of stuff in person, so bear with me if I just ramble or babble incoherently! Plus, soz if it seems like I'm just repeating what you say, I just have pretty much the same views and feelings about all the songs as you do

Anyways! I'll get out of your hair FINALLY! Give you a chance to breathe after reading this long-winded 3 PAGE message:p (back to the good 'ole days indeed!) But I agree, even if we just end up doing quick stop in's and "hi!'s" it'd be better than going months and months without hearing anything from each other:( I miss you too much wifeeeeey! I really hope things are going well at your end of the world, I can't wait to hear from you! Love youuuuuuuuu and talk to you sooon Dalia:happy: (btw, Stephatron is an AWESOME nickname )

P.S. OMG almost forgot...YES I am hoping to study abroad in London next year! Not this coming summer unfortunately it's too soon to try to plan something, but next Summer (2011) would be ideal, but I would even try to do a spring semester or even a winter break month-long thing. I'm meeting with my adviser within the next couple of weeks to kind of get an idea of all the details, expenses, school options, living options, class options, etc. But I really really hope it works out for sometime next year! you have no idea how pumped I am even just thinking about it, and nothing's even close to official yet haha. But believe me, you'll be the first to know of my plans (well apart from my parents of course) so maaaaaaybe consider penciling me into your schedule sometime next year k sweets?! AHHHHHH! I can't wait until I can finally meeeeeeet youuuuuu:D

Okay I'll forealz leave you alone now! Miss you and love you lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and.....LOTS! xoxo take care wifeyzors!

Anyways! To answer some of your Q's, school is going well! V. busy as usual, surprise, surprise! But like I said I'm really enjoying all of my classes so even though they're time consuming and demanding, overall I'm having a great time! I do enjoy having the freedom to take pretty much whatever classes I want (as long as they still cover my requirements of course!) But yeah I can't believe it's already November and I'll have to start planning my spring semester classes out within just a couple of weeks! OMG uni fliiiiiies by, Dalia...it's so weird. I feel like it's going to be over and i'm going to be thrown into the real REAL world before I know it! bAH! And yes yes Scott, or as you would say "Scoot" and I are doing well still! I would've never imagined myself being in a 9 almost 10 month relationship at this point in my life, but I'm happy in it soooo why not I guess! haha! And btw! I've talked to him about my being a member on the boards and how we talk to each other all the time and he thinks it's so cool! Aaaaaand from what I've told him about you (don't worry they're all good things!) He is really excited for me and thinks it's super awesome that we've been able to become such great friends on here! So, I figured you'd want to know that my bf really likes you, even though he's never met you or talked to you lol. OH and before I forget! The whole "you could've had a baby in that time!" :LOL: well, sorry to burst your bubble, but I didn't have a baby hahahaha! But thanks for putting into perspective the time frame of my relationship compared to being pregnant:LOL: AH that made me laugh so much...which makes me miss you and our talks even MOAR! *wipes tear*

And yes....my roommate and her bf are basically the most insane people I know. They are partially the reason, aside from school, why I haven't been getting any sleep lately because they constantly have been breaking up and making up and breaking up and fighting every other day for the past 2 weeks! And since she's my friend and roommate of COURSE I'm almost always there when it happens..... I honestly don't know how 2 people who fight and break up with each other all the time could ever have a serious conversation about spending the rest of their lives together but....who am I to judge I guess!

Aww of course I remember all of our old convos! your poor skin and your lovely bafroom lol, not to mention all the other ramblings we've BOTH had to each other! And I was just thinking about that the other day too....how our whole conversing started through those damn Mugs which was pretty much a year ago.....wow.....It definitely doesn't feel like a year! But you know I'm so glad that all of this has worked out the way it has:happy: ANd you goof I've never viewed your messages as ramblings, even though we both always say we're rambling to each other haha. I always enjoy listening/reading to whatever you've had to say you know! And I still think it's super awesome how we've been able to become such good internetz friendz ahem...wifeys () through teh boards! And someday we'll still meet up for realz dontchu worry!

Did you end up having a good Halloween? I actually ended up being a huge nerd and did homework! lol...Scott and I have both had really busy weeks and were exhausted/had no desire to go out and drink so we just relaxed. man I feel so effing old But what did you end up being!? Scott and I had costumes in mind (of course I had planned it out months in advance ) to be Carmen Sandiego and Where's Waldo! Buuuuut by the time Halloween rolled around we were like "mehhhh let's just do homework and be uber nerds!"

BAHH I'm sorry I have to jet off quick to go out to dinner with my parents! But i'll be back later tonight to finish my ramble and to spaff maaaajorly over teh Resistance! talk to you soonz okay!

WELCOME HOOOOME DEARY!! I'm glad to hear you got back from Africa safe and sound! And wow sounds like you had a lot going on right away haha. If I were you I would've crashed also, speaking of crashing I haven't slept properly in like 2 weeks it seems so that's alllllll I'm going to do this weekend is CRASH! Wow it only took like 3 sentences in to start talking about mememememe I'm soz I feel like there's soooo much we have to catch up on that my brain is going super lesbian right now just trying to sort out everything that I want to say/type!

I'll ramble on about school after I spaff about your SOOPERMASSIVELY AWESUM HOLIDAY! Srsly, it sounds like you had such a wicked time! That's so cool that you have family over there that you could stay with. And in a crazy guest house?! That sounds like it would've been sooo pretty. I know what you mean about being surprised about how modern it is over there. In all the news and stories we hear they always make Africa sound like this completely deserted land with just naked people and wild animals running around all day! That is probably a pretty racist statement too haha...But like you said we're not exactly the most PC people around these parts innit! But ZOMG AFRICA HAS TEH INTERNETZ?! ........ what is this world coming too!?!?!?!?! () But that's sweet you got to spend time in South Africa too, I actually have a friend whose entire family is from there! And kind of off topic, but also not really lol, the World Cup is being held in SA this year and he's getting tix to go, or at least he's going to try to, and might bring me, Scott and some other friends with! I'm keeping my fingers crossed but at the same time I dun wanna get my hopes up toooo much...because I know if all of that really did happen it would be kind of a long shot. But ANYWHO....SAFARI!!!!!! SWEEEEEET! i've always wanted to go on a safari! like a real life safari and I MUST check out your pics on facebook! I deactivated my account again because I really needed to cut out all internet distractions for the past couple of weeks since school's been kicking my ass (yes...AGAIN!) So I'll have to bring it back sometime this weekend! But i'll get more into that later lol...I want to keep talking about youuuuuuu:happy:

That's unfortunate you had to spend the rest of your holiday in Dubai...especially visiting loads and loads of family. Blah. I feel the same exact way as you do when it comes to stuff like that. And I know what you mean about the fake-ness! Granted, I've never been to either Africa or Dubai, but I completely agree with you on people's perceptions of both of the places. Africa has so much culture you couldn't possibly soak it up in just a holiday, whereas Dubai is all so fake and prissy and posh that you just feel like you're in a super rich-man's playhouse. Idk if those analogies are anywhere near what you're trying to say lol but just know that I agree with you! And dear GOD Dalia you literally made planes your home for almost 3 weeks I would feel so claustrophobic after that experience or something haha. At least all the plane rides went well and you're back in Londres safe and sound:happy:

You silly you know I'm never going to tell you to bugger off! I'm really glad you shared all of your holiday experiences with me, seriously it sounds like it was so awesome and I'm insanely jealous but happy for you for all your sweet experiences in le Afrika! I hope coming back to reality hasn't been too difficult for you lol. I know whenever I get back from a vacation I enjoy having a day or 2 to just catch my breath a little bit, but then I always want to go back right away....*le sigh* here I go bitchbitchbitchbitchbitch

Here are the lame few pics I have of the place...soz I'm a terrible photographer, but oh well better than nothing I suppose! lol

living room

living room again, with...a bed? lol dun worry, that's not there anymore, and we have a TV there also.

kitchen w/ my crazy asian roommate holly! her mom was the one that bought the place

bad pic of mine and holly's bedroom

slightly less bad pic of mine and holly's bathroom lol

That's all for now! I'll try to take some better and more updated pictures of the place sometime. But knowing me I'll keep forgetting about it since I'm such a lesbian when it comes to taking pictures (as you know....Muse mug and New Born poster lol EPIC FAIL!)

Anyways! Love you and miss you darling! talk to you sooon xx

And spaffage in 3......2......1.......OH MY GODDDDDDDDDDDD I LOVE THE RESISTANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I completely agree with you when you say it's such a 'complete' album. Practically every time I listen to it I listen to it start to finish, it just seems like the perfect way to listen to each song. Every song they've done is brilliant, and I KNOW what you mean about Resistance. Prob one of my favorite songs of theirs ever. It gets me so emotional during almost every listen. Everything from the beginning, to the verses, to the chorus, to the end, to the drums.... = ;'( But only in the best way! IBTY is so awesomely hilarious, you're right! I think it's great! And watching the 'making of DVD' made me appreciate the song that much more since they just had so much fun making it! I'm also really liking Unnatural Selection, I think that and Resistance are my faves for right now (apart from Exogenesis, which I will get into in a mo!) But Unnatural Selection is like the modern-day Citizen Erased imo. Just the pwopa wock n woll then the amazingly heart-wrenching slow-down back into an immense build-up of sound and epicness! I love it....also one of my favorite songs ever of Muse I'm finking....everything about that, and Resistance just pull out these hidden emotions of mine that I just can't explain, but I just feel so strongly when I'm listening to the songs. Only Muse songs have been able to do that to me, just another reason why I fecking LOVE this band so much!

BUT EXOGENESIS... WOW. What can I even say...there really are no words. It's just....It's just such a masterpiece and I'm so proud of Matt for getting it SO right. It's like, YES this is what we've been expecting from Muse for a while, we all knew they were capable of producing an amazing piece of work like this and it's like FINALLY. YES! They've finally done it! And the fact that it's SO EFFING GOOD! I don't even know how many times it's made me choke up. It's just so brilliant, and another one of those songs filled with an emotion that I can connect with naturally. I agree with you too though, I prefer to just view it as one complete song/symphony rather than picking out which one is my favorite. It's almost like you're taking a part of the symphony away when you name which part is your favorite, at least thats my opinion...there are parts of all 3 that I particularly like, but when you listen to it start to finish and don't pay attention to when one track ends and the other begins, it's impossible for me to say "yeah, those 4 mins. 32 seconds were the best part out of the whole thing!" Or something like that, idk if I'm making much sense anymore lol I've been rambling for so long. But hopefully you get where I'm coming from!

I could honestly go on for days and days also talking about this CD and each song specifically! Instead, how about we just choose 1 song for each message to throw our opinions around on what we think about it. Does that sound okay? We've kind of already done almost half the album lol...but I'll let you choose which song you would like to start with that we give all our attention to for one message. That way we don't have to be darting around from song to song and say only half of what we want to about them all for fear of rambling on for hundreds of pages! Let me know if that's something you'd be up for!

Anyways, I promised I'd try to keep this short but.....woopsies! Oh well, I think in the back of my mind I knew I would go on longer than I intended to lol. But I hope you're having a blast in Africa! I know you'll make it through the 20 days with no internetz okay...although I bet you will feel really behind for a while. Luckily you're wearing your withdrawal patch though lolwut. But yeah that always happens to me when I even spend just a couple days off the internet, or even here! SO much to catch up on all the time! But YES we do need to try to keep in touch a bit more consistently, if we can at least! Even quick drop-ins and "hi!'s" (or the gangster equivalent of that! lol) would be nice, just so we don't go so effing long without any word from each other I miss you LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOADS and loads and loads and loads also! But I can't wait to hear all the awesome Newz from your holiday when you return! PLUS! I want to talk to you more about my possible studying abroad plans! (which hopefully will happen next spring or summer!) But again, I'll save that for another message!

Talk to you soon wifey, I miss you immensely and I can't wait to hear from you! luff luff luff luff luff jooooooooos <3 (god we're so lesbain hahaha)

BYE:happy:
