Right now, stuck in my head simultaniously, are the two songs Devil in Jersey City by Coheed and Cambria, and The Poet and the Pendulum by Nightwish. For the second song, namely the chorus. They're both good songs (well, the latter is more of an incredible symphony than a good song), but they really don't mix. Can you hear them? They just chimed "Too bad" in unison then both started in on their choruses. Gods, have you ever heard any particularly malicious songs before? It's like they want my eyes to go permanently crossed.
I think The Poet and the Pendulum is winning. I hope. Someone has to win at some point.
I just jinxed it, didn't I?
Okay, on to different matters in varying levels of relative importance. School is slowly poisoning my creative soul. When I can clear my mind and focus on what I consider truly important, the ideas just start flowing, and I can really feel happy. But when those moments end, I'm back in this world, where I have to pass all my classes and get into college and do all my homework instead of reading another chapter or writing another page and pay attention to boring math lectures instead of listening to truly good music (wow, long sentence). It's stressful, and it's draining. I feel tired all the time, and I feel like my work is never truly finished - there's always something else due sometime down the road. And at the same time, my life continues to chug foreward, so it's not like I have the time to just dedicate my time to finishing my homework and writing. It's just...too much work. I don't know, so much of school at this point feels ridiculous. When will the girl who wants to grow up and major in English and write her way into a sort of fame ever need to find the tangent of a right triangle? When will she ever need to explain the process of photosynthesis in detail? When will she ever need the exact date of this particular battle in WWI? I'm drowning in all this.
Thanks for listening to me rant. I needed that.
