    Who
    My name's Anita Wirawan and I love stories :).

    I read/watch a lot of stories and like to share the most interesting and unusual ones here to see what everyone else thinks about them.

    Why
    I had originally started this blog as a way to get things together after my brother Jody died back in 2008, but it's turned into a lot more than that.

    I hope you'll find the stories that you need here.

    What Next
    Feel free to look around the blog and add your own thoughts or stories, I'd love to hear 'em.

Oh fuck it, I’m gonna have a party.

Friday, Jun 11th, 2010 by Anita

Been listening to this song a lot tonight: The Blankest Year by Nada Surf. It’s a pretty snappy tune (especially considering it has somewhat dark lyrics) and makes me think of ‘time going by’ sequences in movies where they show the characters going on a road trip or something. Anyway, I love this song it’s good stuff so have a listen:
 

From the album This Weight Is A Gift by Nada Surf.


 

Lyrics:

Oh fuck it
I’m going to have a party
Oh fuck it
I’m going to have a party

I had the blankest year
I saw life turn into a tv show
It Was Totally Weird
The person I knew
I didn’t really know

Time don’t move
We’re the only ones who do
Bending reason
Coz it’s all we hold on to

I had the blankest year
I saw life turn into a tv show
It Was Totally Weird
The person I knew
I didn’t really know

And now it’s lonely
Thank god the band’s doing well
But you don’t own me
I’d like to return this spell
It’s not my size
Your lies are so much bigger
Than my lies
And your ties are made of things
That shouldn’t make ties

Oh fuck it (fuck it)
I’m going to have a party
Oh fuck it (fuck it)
I’m going to have a party
Oh fuck it
I’m going to have a party

    Interesting music.
    I think you might be a Profound Magnet…so I’m going to stick around for awhile.
