MEMESHEEP

[elementalhero]

My headache is starting to feel better, but I think that's because my left eye is finally wearing off. Hopefully my goddamn right contact will fricking work tonight so I don't have mismatched vision again tomorrow, because I refuse to have such a crappy day ever again if I can help it.

SO IT'S MEME TIME!

Both stolen from and_sparks_fly:

1. Falling, falling, falling, falling down / Look yourself in the eye before you drown
2. Now he's holding steady / Forgot her name already
3. Take away the sensation inside / Bittersweet migraine in my head
4. And I am flawed / But I am cleaning up so well...
5. Only the strongest will survive / Lead me to heaven when we die
6. But does anyone notice? But does anyone care? And if I had the guts to put this to your head...
7. My beating heart belongs to you / I walked for miles 'til I found you
8. She spread her love / She burned me up / I can't let go / I can't get out
9. Devon lies beyond this portal / Take the word of one immortal
10. I thought we were friends / I guess it just depends who you ask
11. Let's leave this place / And say that we escaped / We'll say that there's no difference between right and wrong tonight
12. There's a fine line / Between love and hate and I don't mind
13. And if you feel the silence / Leaving this all behind us
14. Falling softly as a prayer / No footsteps ringing in your ears
15. With just a look / They shook / And heavens bowed before him
16. I wake up every evening / With a big smile on my face
17. Does the pain weigh out the pride? And you look for a place to hide
18. Now Paul is a real-estate novelist / Who never had time for a wife
19. The unsuspecting victim / Of darkness in the valley / We can live like Jack and Sally if we want
20. And I don't care if you don't / I don't care if you don't / I don't care if you don't care



Ungh, in the time it took for me to write this entry, my headache fully returned thanks to the people next door turning on the stereo, and my roommate getting back and getting on the phone with someone in Korean. Let me tell you something about native Korean speakers. Unlike the flowing, syllabic Japanese language, or the sharp, vowel/intonation-intense Chinese language, the Korean language as it is spoken by a native speaker sounds like someone dumped a bunch of misshapen, hybrid vowels and choppy consonants into a blender, pureed them, and then spoke the resulting words while dribbling a strawberry smoothie out of their mouth.

Seriously, I don't know how a human throat can make spoken words sound like the sound you make when you choke on something liquid, like bouillabaisse. Or barf. It drives me insane. Yes, I am aware I sound like an uncultured asshole. But I am an uncultured asshole with a huge headache.

16: the Gives You Hell song by... All-American Rejects? lol radio.

And I don't think your dislike of Korean makes you an asshole! Some languages just sound really fug. Like German, though with that one I could be biased from watching too many films with Nazis in them. My favorite languages would probably be French, Japanese, and Portuguese. I took French in high school specifically because it sounded so pretty.

No, German is really fug. It's fun to look at the written words, though; it is a very visually appealing language. But it's murder to try to sing--all the ugly, non-Latin vowels do not lend themselves well to singing, so of course we're performing Der Feuerreiter in the original German. >/ (don't think I spelled that right)

Je parle un peu francais! 8D (ffff can't be bothered to do the cedille)
