Porcupine Tree - Way out of Here
The video is dedicated to Arielle Daniel, a girl who was killed by a train in November 12, 2005, at the age of seventeen, together with a friend of her, Heather Bates, who was fourteen years old. Arielle was a big Porcupine Tree fan who founded the band’s MySpace Group. The accident occurred when the girls were taking photos on the rails. Both were from Oak Creek, Wisconsin.
Out at the train tracks
I dream of escape
But a song comes onto my iPod
And I realize it's getting late
I can't take the staring
And the sympathy
And I don't like the questions,
"How do you feel?
How's it going in school?
Do you want to talk about it?"
Way out, way out of here
Fade out, fade out, vanish
And I'm trying to forget you
And I know that I will
In a thousand years
Or maybe a week
Burn all your pictures
Cut out your face
The shutters are down
And the curtains are closed
And I've covered my tracks
Disposed of the car
And I'm trying to forget
Even your name
And the way that you look
When you're sleeping, dreaming of this...
Way out, way out of here
Fade out, fade out, vanish

XI. RECEIVE
Help me be a channel of Thy peace
That where there is hatred, I may bring love
That where there is wrong, I may bring the spirit of forgiveness
That where there is discord, I may bring harmony
That where there is error, I may bring truth
That where there is doubt, I may bring faith
That where there is despair, I may bring hope
That where there is shadow, I may bring light
That where there is sadness, I may bring joy
That I may seek rather to comfort, than to be comforted
That I may seek to understand, rather than to be understood
That I may seek to love, rather than to be loved,
for it is by self-forgetting that one finds,
it is by forgiving that one is forgiven

Coraline
Watched this really beautifully produced animation last night and enjoyed it immensely. It was like Tim Burton meets Les Triplettes de Belleville and the music frame fits the movie perfectly giving up on typical, expressionless orchestration and presenting us with some good sounding original music by They Might Be Giants and Bruno Coulais. Finally I consider it to be an educational production which teaches ungrateful children to respect and appreciate their very own parents no matter how boring or bad tempered they tend to be sometimes.

premature death
So I had this great little idea just couple minutes ago. It dawned on me while in the bathtub, the one that would make THE VERY IMPORTANT PERSON happy and thrilled, I got excited, like a little child. And just as this idea started to unravel I realized it wouldn't be as easy as I thought it would be and probably would place THE VERY IMPORTANT PERSON in a troublesome situation to which (yet) there is no easy solution. So sorrowful I gave up on this idea, hoping that it would be possible to make it happen in the future. Really counting on it. And who says I'm not an spontaneous person? Hell I am !!!
JUST LET ME PROVE IT !!!

the view
Inverleith House presents a programme of temporary exhibitions of the highest quality; bringing internationally-based artists and their work to Scotland and exhibiting work by artists based in Scotland, on an international stage.
Back in 2005 I spent countless hours sitting, lying and sunbathing on benches and lovely grass by Inverleith House cherishing every moment of my living in Edinburgh, Looking back I think it was The Happiest Time Of My Life. The thought's both uplifting and sad, the sudden realization, as if life wasn't keeping anything in store for me anymore (which I know is not true - especially now) but nonetheless memories of Edinburgh make me sad and make me wonder will I ever be as fulfilled as then, when I was in my mid twenties? Why does the time got to fly so rapidly ? ? ?
Come back to me...
