Laura Marling - Goodbye England

You were so smart then in your jacket and coat
My softest red scarf was warming your throat
Winter was on us at the end of my nose
But I never love England
More than when covered in snow

But a friend of mine says it's good to hear
That you believe in love even if set in fear
well I'll hold you there brother and set you straight
I wont make believe that love is frail
And willing to break

I will come back here, bring me back when I'm old
I want to lay here forever in the cold.
I might be cold but I'm just skin and bones
And I never love England
More than when covered in snow

I wrote my name in your book, only god knows why
And I bet you that he cracked a smile
And I'm clearing all the stuff out of my room
trying desperately to figure out
What it is that makes me blue
and I wrote an epic letter to you
And it's 22 pages front and back
And it's too good to be used
and I tried to be a girl who likes to be used
I'm too good for that
There's a mind under this hat and I
Called them all and told them i've got to move

I'm out man anekatips (?), it's too hard

Feel like running, feel like running
Running off.
And we will keep you, we will keep you little one
Safe from harm, like an extra arm
You are part of us.

You were so smart then in your jacket and coat
and my softest red scarf was warming your throat
Winter will leave us, left the end of my nose
So goodbye old England 'till next years snow

Nightclub

Thinking of getting a boob job?? Well here is a nightclub for you.

Zooper Doopers

The summer refreshment that is so cool. HAHA

They are tubes of flavored water that you freeze and cut the top off when you want a nice refreshment. They come in different flavors and are a summer favorite.

Bon Iver

I don’t know if i have posted this before but i don’t care. I think this is an amazing song. To me its about a guy whose girlfriend has split from him. He has given her advice on how to deal with the relationship yet she still has issues with it. If its about himself, the singer, the relationship would have had certain things they had to work on such as time spent away from each other, travel etc and he is telling her to be patient to keep the relationship alive.

And I told you to be patient
And I told you to be fine
And I told you to be balanced
And I told you to be kind
And now all your love is wasted
And then who the hell was I?
And I'm breaking at the britches
And at the end of all your lines
Who will love you?
Who will fight?
Who will fall far behind?

The Single Story

We all have a single story on a subject. We all have a stereotypical view.
The single story is where the same story gets told over and over again about a people or a place we do not know first-hand. The danger is that it leads to stereotypes, to half-truths not the full truth. So, for example, many Americans think of Africa as being full of wild animals and hungry, unwashed children, not a place where there are libraries, bus drivers and true love. Or they think of Australia as the land of kangaroos, the outback and Crocodile Dundee, not a place of boring suburbs and proper English.

How does the whole story change your view on something? For instance, Cigarettes, If you grow up in a world where smoking is a social status because its cool and the Rich people do it, you take it up believing you are in a higher society status. You don’t know any better. One day you hear a story about how smoking causes cancer. How it can kill you. Does it change your mind on the whole view of Smoking cigarettes? Does it make Smoking less Glamorous?

Here is a talk from Chimamanda Adichie.
