It's the end of the world as we know it (and i feel fine)

What would you do if you found out it was the end of the world? I'd love to be in a church, surrounded by everyone I know and we'd just sing and dance to the classics and old pop songs that everyone knows the words to. We'd then say our thank yous, sorrys and confess our feelings. And then as the finale have a gigantic black gospel choir sing Oh Happy Days. That would be quite awesome.

How would you want it to end?

Some Father and Daughter Bonding

Dad: What are you holding?
Me: *Shows him the bag of almonds I found on the kitchen bench*
Dad: Hey! Those are mine!
Me: *moves to walk away*
Dad: Drop. The. Bag.
Me: *slowly picks an almond from the bag, carefully puts it into my mouth then runs off with them*

Crashin

There's this boy who every time I look at gives me that sick twisted feeling in my stomach. It makes me uneasy and nervous. They call it butterflies but to me it feels like I have way too much acid churning in there and if I don't get rid of it my chest's going to be eaten inside out by the acid and sort of, make a hole. So it's more like the feeling of flesh eating butterflies eating my insides alive. Oooh yeah, that's the Renaissance romantic in me speaking right there.

Helloss I am Mariannes

Just a little normal blog:

If you hadn't noticed I gave my little ol' blog a makeover, added a bit of a personal touch here and theres. I also enabled the comments back 'cause well, I felt bad that I get to have my thoughts expressed here while others can't so the options always there for you guys. I hope all is well with you, my friends out there. Have a good weekend? Y-yeah? Yeah no? So-so?

 And I got the messages for more Emma and Tom so your wish is my command. I'll send out the next chapter or two by the end of the week :)

Marianne: musically devirginised

Left: Tegan(aka love of my life), right Sara (whom I also love). This wasn't one of our pictures by the way haha. You'll probably see them on Facebook within the week.


Tonight I lost my concert virginity to Tegan & Sara. It wasn't as scary as I thought it would be, they were gentle and attentive and knew just what i wanted to make me comfortable. Okay, I think I'm going to end this analogy here because it's getting a tad much haha. But really, they were so casual and cool, not needing no make up or fancy clothes added just an extra something to it. You know, that they only needed their music and charisma to get our attention.

What made me appreciate them even more was that they were true musicians; their main concern is the music and in every song expose the very essence of themselves to whoever out there is listening. It's really a beautiful thing to watch metres from you. We were in the second row and got to see their faces. hehheehehe. The singing and instruments was raw, the emotion was raw and hearing my favourite songs by them being played live the way it's meant to sound just made everything perfect! When they were singing Call it Off it just made me want to cry because it was just a summary of how amazing the whole show was. Where Does the Good Go will always be my favourite, it's the first song i heard from them therefore I associate with the fondest memories which usually is the case for most artists for me haha. The sound, lighting, conversation was so genuine and personal sometimes it felt like a few friends getting together and just jamming. And so that was my perfect night...except for this giraffe in front of us and her friend who kept sticking their butt out and rubbing it on us, also giraffe girl shielded my view of Sara the whole time which annoyed me sososo much.

Thanks so much to Jade and Sana, I couldn't ask for a better two people to share this with. Argh, I'm so in love with T & S, I just didn't want it to end. I wanted them to play me music and talk to me forever. Also we share the same humour. Soulmates! I can't wait till they come back already so we can 'do it' again ;)

Back then things were simpler...but not nearly as interesting
