Home…

November 29th, 2007

That’s where I want to be, and that’s where i’m looking forward to going this weekend. Three months away has been fantastic, while three months away from home has been really quite tough on me and i’ll be glad to be back amongst family and friends….

So I keep plugging on for the next 72 hours and then I board a plane home :)

Missy Higgins – This Is How It Goes

November 26th, 2007

I am absolutely *loving* this woman right now on my iPod…

And just so you know, she wrote her most brilliant song, ’10 Days’ while on a Contiki Europe trip …. and yes, she sung the song to the group …..

I am jealous…

Suddenly I can’t stay in this room.
You’ll never sway, and I have nothing left that I can think of to say.
What do you want me to think of my thought?
Bear it in mind, if I cannot believe in me who will I then be?

And so I’ll run but not too far, incase you chase me, oh…
But this is how it goes, baby.
I’ll get angry at your words and I’ll go home
And you won’t call after me ‘cos I’ll be back before you know, you know…

So give me a tooth full of that smile,
And know-it-all eyes you show me
Just to prove that you don’t need to lose it.
You tell me I’m your fortress of desire
But is it a crime for me to say my own view
And want then not to fear you?

And so I’ll run but not too far, incase you chase me…
But this is how it goes, baby,
I’ll get angry at your words and I’ll go home
Then you won’t call after me ‘cos I’ll be back before you know,
You know, yeah I’ll be back before you know…

La di da di da………..
And so I’ll run but not too far…

‘Cos this is how it goes, baby,
I’ll get angry at your words and
I’ll go home, then you won’t call after me,
‘cos I’ll be back before you know, you know…

Yeah, I’ll be back before you know…
And so I’ll run but not too far…

Alannis Morrisette – Perfect

November 25th, 2007

Self-deprecating, completely selfish and probably well removed from reality, but this song (and particularly at the moment) always strikes a chord.

——–

Sometimes is never quite enough
If you’re flawless, then you’ll win my love
Don’t forget to win first place
Don’t forget to keep that smile on your face
Be a good boy
Try a little harder
You’ve got to measure up
And make me prouder
How long before you screw it up
How many times do I have to tell you to hurry up
With everything I do for you
The least you can do is keep quiet
Be a good girl
You’ve gotta try a little harder
That simply wasn’t good enough
To make us proud
I’ll live for you
I’ll make you what I never was
If you’re the best, then maybe so am I
Compared to him compared to her
I’m doing this for your own damn good
You’ll make up for what I blew
What’s the problem …… why are you crying
Be a good boy
Push a little farther now
That wasn’t fast enough
To make us happy
We’ll love you just the way you are if you’re perfect

Kylie … Agent Provocateur

So you want me to post about the trip?

November 6th, 2007

Well apart from the (very) long diatribe that is our story of our amazing trip, i’d quickly like to add a couple of photos to give you some perspective of our final destination, Paris.

We are lucky enough to be staying at an apartment that is less than 5 minutes walk from the mighty Eiffel tower and seconds away from both the Metro and RER lines…..

The first photo is from standing inside the dining area of the apartment, as you can see, almost all of the tower is in focus, but it’s slightly cut off by the verandah….

From 'inside' the apartment

However, five steps later and you’re on the verandah for this view….. *sigh* :)

Standing on the verandah...

I promise i’ll have a complete story to tell at the end, and i’ll post each of the days adventures in logical sequence and send through a table of contents so you can bore yourself to tears!

Adam

p.s – Both these photos are without zoom!
