One could claim boredom. One does claim boredom. I'm sorry that it's you that I come to when I'm bored. I'm sure what I'm about to say isn't very interesting. Just, well, weird I guess. But you know I'm weird anyway, so it can't hurt, right?
Anyway, after some music work has been done, I've worked out my most played artists on iTunes, which started from scratch at the start of the year. In a particular order, here they are:
20) Eagles
19) The Killers
18) Them Crooked Vultures
17) Bob Marley
16) Bob Dylan
15) America
14) Blake Lewis
13) Pink Floyd
12) Barclay James Harvest
11) Eels
10) The Parlotones
9) The Doors
8) Van Morrison
7) The Alan Parson's Project
6) Santana
5) The Beatles
4) Dire Straits
3) Justin Timberlake
2) Maroon 5
1) Muse
And if you feel like expanding your musical horizons, some songs from these artists:

And The Image Is Reflected Back To The Other Side
Well, I guess I've been sitting here, bored out of my mind. I can only imagine that you are too. Why else would you have spared time for The Stars? Puts us all in the same boat. I'm tempted to call it 'Titanic', but we certainly don't make up a large enough crowd. 'Minute' seems a more appropriate name.
10.38pm on a Saturday night, Superstar in my ears, brightlit screen in front of me, and I can't think of anything more interesting or more relevant to say. Maybe it's uni, driving the creative spark out of me. Maybe it's me, driving the spark out of my creativity. Either way, I only keep typing to see a fuller paragraph.
Maybe I just need to take 5 minutes to pull my socks up, suck it in, breathe out easy, and move on. Take life as is, for what it is, make the most of what comes my way. Try not to take the easy way out. Try not to avoid what I ought not. Try to do more than the minimum requirement. Learn to control myself, be more patient, less quick to be frustrated. Think about how I'm managing to put off doing any of that just by way of writing at The Stars for the first time in nearly two months. Like a diet, I'll start my plan on Monday.
In another breath, I ought to say semester one ended 3/4 happy. I hope semester two ends 5/5 happy. Or at least 5/5 happy enough.
You know what I like? Sunshine.
