Daily Update #3- No Pause (Girl Talk)
January 6, 2009Hey Audience! As "The Audience" I would like to add a subtle new addition to my 365 part Annual extravaganza of Daily Updates. I know, I know, I can feel how excited you are (and you will be with an awesome treat on the weekend, if I can remember)- man it’s cold, I’m shivering like a maraca right now- and even though you might think it would be impossible for me to feel how excited you are, I agree. Fine, fine, I’m going to let you win that one, since I appreciated you reading (and because I sadly, can’t win).
Okay! Now on to the content- Oh wait, I forgot to announce the change! As you have notice, if you read the title, it’s a title of a song. I will try to get some good music titles to not only make me think and exercise the grey matter I call my noggin, but also to recommend some choice tracks for you to grace your ears with. If you don’t like the music (or the novels, a.k.a Junot Diaz, Ms. Aya Yagi, that you very much) I suggest that you please leave a comment so I can have a response that is hopefully and respectfully not full of explicit language. It’ll be a good fun ride.
Also, if you haven’t heard of Girl Talk, it’s some pretty good stuff. It’s more or less a blend of chart toppers and guilty pleasures from the mind of Girl Talk, or more less known as Greg Gillis. The track mentioned is No Pause, which is a lot like how his albums are structured. Even though they are divided to individual snipets of 4 minute intervals, it’s better to listen to the whole thing as it was designed that way. Pretty good segways and transitions. A sexy album is his latest, Feed the Animals, and you can get it for free legally (Link provided below).
Ok so for today, the topic is none other than sleeping positions. No, not about enjoyable, and kinky sex positions, that’s for anotherday, such as tommorrow (wink wink-then again who would want to hear that kind of talk from a virigin like me), but the positions I take when I sleep.
After going to sleep at a pretty respectable hour for a person my age <11:34?> I proceeded to do my whole ritual. That means, pants off-> pajamas on really. It was cold, so I was kind of hesistant to go all exposed thigh with the biting nippy air. My feet was expose all yesterday and I believe they were frozen because everytime I got up, I felt I was breaking my stiff feet. It was really a unique feeling, also it’s why I’m wearing shoes inside. It’s not really helping.
Back to the topic though, my neck pain hasn’t improved, and in bed I couldn’t sleep till 2 am. 2 am was when I usually slept at during break, and as this hit me, I figured that my past sleeping habits during Winter break and pretty much everyday, who am I kidding, has gotten to me. Off that New Year Resolution craze, my resolution to sleep early and wake early was demolished not by sheer will, but by habit as well. It was a frustrating 2 hours of changing positions, moving the covers this way and that, and arranging pillows as to relieve neck issues. None of that worked. I wish I knew the perfect way to sleep, since I think it’s a problem with a lot of people.
Sleep is just so pleasurable, and to me a good night’s sleep is pretty rare, and I could do with one today and basically everyday. That would be simply put, heaven.
Okay, one more thing before I cut this for being so absurdly long. I hope you don’t read most of this, seriously I don’t. The thing I do want to mention is why everybody is so obsessed with listening to music all the time, loving their iPod for a form of beatiful escapism. Oh wait I answered my question.
I can’t really blame anybody, but it seems with all this attention being paid to distract the brain while doing tasks, usually boring but still. I think with all this earphone slap, and prolonged use of earphones provides a little too much escapism. The world is a pretty interesting and dirty place. Music can’t be appreciated if it’s over played, it has that effect and that may just be me, but I wish I can listen to Mika without getting bored because I overplayed the album, Life in Cartoon Motion (check it out, it’s pretty damn sexy). So free yourself from utter escapism and free yourself. You’ll never know how many times you’ll save yourself when walking across a car busy street this way. Remember, look left and right, then walk. Then again, a lot of music is really good for walking.~(>^_^(>O_O)>
