Okkervil River "Wake and Be Fine"

the song made me feel bored and I kind of felt like walking out of the room and head home, just to waste more time on my Xbox and forget everything I learned and just wait for life to pass on by, which I plan on doing before entering college. I would tell people to listen to the song but not when they are in a bad mood like I am for the past few days, this whole week is going to be bad on my grade...

'Paradizo' by Anthony Holborne

this music reminds me of robin hood, and any movie with knights, its calming to hear and does not disappoint me, it makes life go slow at a steady pace with no problems, the song we are hearing today is such a interesting piece of music, it makes me want to walk outside for hours on end. but I won't want to listen to it all the time.

Picasso on Art

"Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life. " -- Pablo Picasso




to me it means that, no matter what happened in the day everything will be better once you draw or paint, it will help easy the trouble pain, of work, school, and life. he also wants people to forget their trouble. and people should forget their troubles, because they will have less stress when they return to work.

Thomas Kinkaide

well to start off the painting is somewhat boring, just to say, but on the other hand it has a peaceful view to it, the structure by the waterfall is a good place for comfort and relaxation, if I had a house that had it I would be outside everyday, just to let my day wash away to start anew. it is a nice painting it makes me feel calm and happy.

Bright Eyes "At the Bottom of Everything"

this song was just plain weird, the video was even weirder, but it really does not interest me, the song was not much of an interest, because I was just not into the song, but I will not be listening to it in the future. but for some reason this song gave me memories of Marco, and his stories, and his stories are pretty much the best out of all the people here..

Buddha and suffering

this saying is trying to say if your rich or poor you must see that everyone is the same, we all feel pain, we all get hungry, we all need air to breath, and no matter what kind of political power you may have you will soon pass on, and sometimes the ones with the money always get out of things they cause, and the person who was the victim of a greedy crime.....I don't remeber who wrote this....but it said...."old people are the one's who declare war, It's the young who have to fight it.".....

KING ARTHUR

All I know about him is he almost conquered the world, but soon failed after his men became ill, from starvation and such, I don't know much of his background, but he was a strong leader and he would have had the whole world if none of his men got sick. so everything I know is about all the traveling he did..
