Rest In Peace

This week I've said goodbye twice to the best teacher I've ever known
It has been probably the saddest week of my life
On top of all that, many other feelings have been swirling around in my head making life extra difficult
I think it's safe to say that I miss life
And Mr Wright
RIP Sir


"So, now you're not there
But your ghost still burns in the air
Finally above us the waves have come
To take you away

And with this song, I'll say goodbye
And thank you for what you've done to my life
And Finally I'll say it with love
I hope you're at rest in the stars above

And I don't understand what you died for
We still could have given so much more
And I know you are something I could never be
But I know you're still there watching over me"

I Wanna Be as Cool as Berlin

I'm one of those people who always wish they were as cool as everyone else
You know when people start listening to the same music as you and watching all your favourite shows and write their blog just like yours and start being friends with all your besties and then make it seem like they're the cool and original ones cause 'they totally had no idea you even did any of that'
Not that you talk about it all day every day
And then they make you feel un-cool because they do it all and for some reason, they make it look cooler. Or maybe they just make themselves more annoying, I'm not sure.

Then today, as I was sitting at MY OWN DESK at RAVE MAGAZINE writing interview questions for a band that would be in one of the next few issues, after I had transcribed an interview with Jose, the drummer for The Breeders and before I wrote an indie album review that would be in an up-coming issue that all those people who pretended they were better than me, by trying to be like me, really didn't have shit
Sure, a few of them have been to my favourite city on earth, but they don't get to work at one of Australia's most widely read music magazines.


Anyway, I'm just so totally awesome that it wouldn't even matter if anyone tried to be cooler. My awesome would just over-power them
