Hoping That Something Good Would Happens: Please, Please, Please :Let Me Get What I Want By The Smiths



With the bad things that have been happening lately, I really feel bummed out.  I cross my fingers and work as hard as I can but alas, things just don't turn out like I hope for.  The fact that it's been happening more frequently really puts me down. The worst part about it is that it's been going on for a long, long time now.  For once, I wish something good would happen. For once, I wish my luck would change and that something good would happen and that's why I chose the song " Please, Please, Please :Let Me Get What I Want" by The Smiths for this post.

What are the things that I would want to happen?  That my family be safe from all harm and misfortunes.  That the things that I've been working on the side would finally bear fruit.  That the family bonds remain strong and that everybody is happy.  I know this won't happen by simply wishing for it.  That's why I keep on trying despite all the uphill battles and stumbling blocks that life throws at me.

Man, things just keep getting tougher.  We haven't recovered from some past problems and already life throws more crap on us.  Just once, I wish things would go our way.  We've accepted these bad things again and again that I've forgotten what good times were like.  Well, I still won't give up and I do hope that something good will eventually happen for all of us one of these days.

Something That's Been Bothering You: The Boy With A Thorn In His Side By The Smiths




Sometimes when we see people, we think that they have perfect lives.  I'm not one to pry despite outward appearance, deep down we all have our troubles. It's like an itch that's bearable but nonetheless bothersome.  It's something that we need to resolve if we're to have some kind of peace in our lives.  When it comes to that bothersome thing, it reminds of the song " The Boy With A Thorn In His Side" by The Smiths.

This thorn or bothersome thing can be anything. A failed dream, a secret obsession or anything that hasn't been or will never be realized.  If there's still a chance then take it.  If it succeeds then the thorn gets removed.  If it fails, then I guess that's that.

Carrying something like that for a long time sure sucks.  How you resolve it is up to you.  It's either that or you carry that thorn for a very long time.  Just remember that if you do take that thorn or bothersome thing out, it can be a liberating experience.  Just do your best and the rest will follow.

When Patience Runs Out: How Soon Is Now By The Smiths




When I was young, I was a very patient individual. I was to waiting for the things that would come to me and I didn't mind the long wait. It could take hours, days, weeks, months and even years but I never complain cause I knew it would come. These days, I'm not as patient as I use to be and it starts to irritate me when things that I ask for don't come on time. When it comes to wanting things at this moment, the song "How Soon Is Now" by The Smiths.

We live in an age where technology from computers, cellphones and the internet bring people together. With such advances in communication, it makes it easier for us to convey what we want compared to what we had in the past. This makes us want to demand results asap! We demand instant gratification that patience is fast disappearing as a character trait. We just can't wait anymore and if it was possible to wish it on the spot, people would do it just to get what they want.

Though I'm not as patient as I was when I was young, I try my best to be. With the limited resources that I have, I have no choice. I guess one reason why I too get impatient is because of the situation that I find myself due to a lot mistakes. That's why though I need the results fast, nothing will happen unless I do this right. Sadly, I have to be patient because the now will take time to happen.

That Certainly Wasn't Funny Anymore: That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore By The Smiths




Once again, I went home very late and feeling really worn out. Last night I was attending my extra-curricular activity which is a pain in the butt. As always, those dudes pulled the same old routine. This time they took it to another excruciating level. I was already tired from all the other things that I've been doing and now I have to deal with this?! The smith's song "That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore" reflected my exasperation with last night's gig.

As I blogged yesterday, every time that day comes, I really get tense because of the way things are done there. The last two weeks were awful since we had to go home late and it was raining hard resulting in me getting wet. Yesterday, I thought things would be different but alas, I was greatly mistaken for got worse and it was getting on my nerves. Finally I had enough and went home. I was so pissed that it me a while to get myself calm and go to bed.

For people who feel that there's something important to resolve, they sure drag their feet. Late, unprepared and making a mountain out of a molehill is what's best describes them. Man, these were the traits our teachers told us never to do when we were in school. If they really were passionate about what they were going to talk about they'd be there on time and be prepared to discuss it. All I know that it's not funny anymore and it's becoming a disgusting habit unbecoming of these guys.
