When life gets you down, just get back up

Thanks Keri Hilson for the title!
Currently listening to: Lights - Both "Saviour" and "Second Go" IN REVERSE!! ( not only does all her songs sound awesome as an acoustic, electronic or remixed but even in reverse )

And now my covers frenzy
Steven Loki Howell's cover to Sean Kingston's Eenie Meenie
The Ready Set!'s to Wyclef's Sweetest Girl
The Downtown Fiction's cover to Cee-Lo Green's Fuck You
Drawing North's cover to Bruno Mars's Just The Way You Are
Friday Night Fever's cover to Katy Perry's Teenage Dream
Larzz's cover to yet again to Katy Perry but to Firework
On a sidenote, Katy Perry is coming to New Zealand
but her first show got sold out in a matter of seconds =(
I'm just saving up money for Parachute 2010 =D

I would just like to take the time to acknowledge that
yes, the school year is drawing to a close
yes, your friends are going their seperate ways
yes, I'm gonna miss them
yes, finding time to hang out with them is gonna be a mission
yes, being Librapad man was a sweet role to play
yes, Mr Hithersay did show his bio class his shoulder tattoo
yes, Jason had to lick Ajay's feet because Kate Beckinsale was NOT in LOST
yes, my sister Tameilia got top in graphics AND fabrics in her year (congrats)
yes, uni life sounds sweet yet daunting
yes, my hand is sore from signing people's stuff
yes, undie run was frikkin' awesome and physically intense (even Tadele got tired)
Finau had his own Undie Walk going on!
and no, I will not give you my number
(combo breaker)

It is I! Librapad Man!
Two of the hottest guys in our school!
The future A team?
My dormant shapeshifting abilities awaken

and the words of the wise and was my potential prefect speech

Paradox of our time 

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers;
wider freeways but narrower viewpoints. We spent more, but have less, we buy more but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge but less judgement, more experts yet more problems, more medicine but less wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much and pray too seldom. We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom and hate too often

We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbour. We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, not better things.

We've cleaned up the air but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom but not our prejedice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.

These are times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill.

It is a time when there is much in the showroom window but nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this to you and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or just forget it

Remember to spend some time with your loved ones because they will not going to be around forever
Remember to say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe because that little person soon will grow up and leave you side
Remember to give a warm hug to the one next to you because that is the only treasure you can givewith your heart and it doesn't cost a cent
Remember to say I love you to your partner and your loved ones but most of all, mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend the hurt when it comes from deep inside of you
Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again
Give time to love, give time to speak and give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind

Cheesy, yes
Inspirational, I hope so
