Can't Be Sure About Anything Anymore: Can't Be Sure By The Sundays



I arrived early at work as usual and punched in the clock as proof that I'm here already.  After signing the log book, I sat on my desk and the questions start flooding in my head.  The routine has been shattered and the changing of the guard has left an air of uncertainty in this place.  It's a sad reminder that nothing is certain in this world.  Listening to the song "Can't Be Sure By The Sundays"  reinforces that fact.

Last week, the news hit us so hard, we just stared at each other because we were so shocked at how things turned out.  Those who could speak, kept asking why did this happen.  All I know is I am facing an uncertain future and I am not alone.  None of us are confident of our future at the moment.  Everything is up in the air with our fates in the balance.

As I've blogged before, I am just preparing for the worse.  Getting my papers ready and keeping my fingers crossed while doing so.  The last three years were a blast and I really like the guys I was working with.  I just hope we all make it through.  No matter how uncertain things are, I'll do my best to make through these hard times.

It Sucks That it's Off The Air: Goodbye By The Sundays

a  taken off the air.  They told me that the station was again making some changes.  My heart really sank when I heard the news. It was one of the few things that brightened things up for me during these tough times and now they're taking that away from me.  Hearing go off the air once again reminds me of the song "Goodbye" by The Sundays.

Man, even though my brothers tell to just download and save the songs that I like, it's different when you hear it on air.  You get to share it with everyone and they realize how good those song are, they too would also want to hear it again and again.  The fact that that shows has largest collection of old and rare hits is another reason why I listen to it every weekend.  Most of important of all, they reflect the memories of good times that I had when I was growing up.  I never tire of listening to them for they take me back in time and the past comes alive.

Well I guess I won't be charging my MP4 player for a while and my cellphone's battery need not be drained during Saturdays as the program that I love goes off the air yet again.  Still a program that good won't stay off the air for long.  I am crossing my fingers and will patiently wait for its return.  For now I again say goodbye to an old friend that has made me feel good all these years.

A Lot On My Mind: Thinking About You By The Sundays

Whenever I meet people, the first impression I seem to give them is that I am either in deep thought or I have  a lot on my mind. A lot of times, they are right and usually it's due to the pressures that I face everyday.  It's also due to problems that haven't been resolved or something bad that happened that's worry the crap out of me.  With no money and no where to go, some happy thoughts help put my overcrowded mind at ease.  When it comes to happy thoughts and having a lot on a troubled mind, the song "I'm Thinking About You" by   The Sundays is what I listen to.

What are the things that occupy my worried mind?Trying to figure out things that could uplift my plight but have a hard time putting it together. Other times it could be problems that come out of nowhere and put everybody in heart attack mode.  I won't ,mention what they are but it's been happening every year.  Just when you think that things will be better after one problem gets resolved, another takes its place and it's worse than the previous one.

I try to think happy thoughts to keep me at ease.  It's a miracle that I can still think of something good when everything is going bad.  Well I think about a lot of things and a lot of people who I care about. I worry for their safety as well as their happiness. 12 years and I'm still dealing with crap.  Hopefully one day I'll be thinking  more happy than worrying thoughts when I know everything and everyone is fine.
