New Soul - Yael Naim

I love this song, they play it at work a lot. Sooooo happy and gets stuck in your head easily. The video is really cool, too.


I'm a new soul
I came to this strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit 'bout how to give and take
But since I came here
Felt the joy and the fear
Finding myself making every possible mistake
La la la la la la la la la la la la la.....

I'm a young soul
In this very strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit 'bout what is true and fake
But why all this hate?
Try to communicate
Finding trust and love is not always easy to make
La la la la la la la la la la la la la......

This is a happy end
'Cause you don't understand
Everything you have done
Why's everything so wrong?
This is a happy end
Come and give me your hand
I'll take you far away

I'm a new soul
I came to this strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit 'bout how to give and take
But since I came here
Felt the joy and the fear
Finding myself making every possible mistake

I have 13 minutes left on the library computer

I like the soundtrack to company and being able to live in my apartment and getting along with Killian and agreeing with people that we loathe the same other people and I like wearing my hair in braids and I love the public library especially using their computers and I'm happy for my friends who are doing cool things where there lives like going on exchange programs in Mexico for spring break and I like West Wing marathons with Pooky and I like making sandwiches and I like animals and sleeping and reading and cute new shirts from Old Navy and I like my car when it works and I also like taking long walks just because.

I do not like my car making terrible horrible noises whenever I rotate the wheel and I do not like spending the $300 it will take to fix the problem and I really don't like that I probably need to spend another $300 on the same problem on the opposite side of the car really soon and I like having time off but I don't like when my car breaks down right before the two consecutive days off when I was going to visit my mom but now I can't but on the other hand I don't need to go to work so that's something, and I don't like talking on the phone, and I really really really don't like when my checks bounce but thankfully that's almost completely fixed and I don't like that the library computers have a 30 minute time limit, but I'll take what I can get, and I have 6 minutes to go so I'm gonna go check facebook now and write more tomorrow.

And I like cute girls, dislike not being brave enough to ask them out, but still, I'm making some progress.

Hope life is going swimmingly for everyone else, because mine, overall, is pretty damn nice.
