So upon looking through my English journal from the past semester I've discovered my tendency to dump things I like into it instead of writing like I'm supposed to. One specific page I dumped things onto with the intention of using it for inspiration, but since I hardly ever look through this journal, it's probably a better idea to dump them here.
I also wrote them in my favorite colored pens so I'm gonna try to recreate those colors here. I don't wanna lose awesomeness just by digitizing it.

When success is equated with excess the ambition for excess wrecks us ...singing red, white, blue and green Acts 4:12 blood, sweat, and one thing's missing we're just used to bad news singing without tongues, screaming without lungs don't leave me hollow; I'm tired What does the sea smell like just before a storm? Romantics; Frost dandelions lost in the summer sky Even better! My English journal from last year contains just as many lyric dumps as this year. It seems I really don't like being forced to write. * Don't Panic - Coldplay * Hidden Track (Hey now) - FM Static * Concept of nori-tsukkomi (the best)(not a song but who cares) Well daaaang this journal is much better than my current one. I actually answered prompts. Or at least tried. And I'm pretty funny in here. Or at least I think I am. It seems closer to the end of the year I stopped caring about trying as much. Maybe that's why it's so bad this year. Or senioritis, maybe? I made a lot of lists. | In green are some six word lines from Switchfoot songs that I jotted down. Not nearly enough songs were in the sample though. There are plenty more that are just as great. Acts 4:12 was an epiphany on a song title. Ignore that. In red is miscellaneous notes. The last one is a phase from a " The Crow and The Butterfly" - Shinedown Other songs I dumped in spots in my notebook were: * Second Chance - Shinedown * Daisy - Switchfoot * On Fire - Switchfoot * Amy Says - Flyleaf * Amy's Song - Switchfoot (same Amy? I must find out. I know Amy says was written based on an actual Amy, but i don't know about Amy's song) * Playing for Keeps - Switchfoot * Learning to Breathe - Switchfoot * It's Beginning to Get to Me - Snow Patrol * I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas - I have no clue I just heard somebody singing ti and it got stuck in my head * I wish I were and Oscar Meyer Wiener - I don't even... If it's not obvious enough, I'm in a Switchfoot phase again. My spirit animal is definitely Jon Foreman. I only recently realized that I followed a similar evolution in personality as the band did in style, probably influenced by the fact that I've been listening to them my whole life. |
