Anathema - Forgotten Hopes

Hey you, rotting in your alcoholic shell
Banging on the walls of your intoxicated mind.
Do you ever wonder why you are left alone?
As your heart grew colder
And finally turned to stone.

Latest Addiction: Deep Purple's Perfect Stranger ('84)

\,,/

And I can already play parts A and B from the title song! Almost got the entire chorus, and one day I'll be fast enough to play part C (one day I'll also laugh and think how slow I was).

Não me deixe ouvir reggae

Versão Original:

There's a rat in me kitchen what am I gonna do?
There's a rat in me kitchen what am I gonna go?
I'm gonna fix that rat thats what I'm gonna do,
I'm gonna fix that rat.

Versão Nati nas Dorgas:

tem um rato na cozinha, o que é que vou fazer?
tem um rato na cozinha, o que é que vou fazer?
vo levá o rato pro cefet, é isso que vou fazer,
vo levá o rato pro cefet.

Yet another lyric...

So understand
Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted years
Face up... make your stand
And realise you're living in the golden years


This must be the only Maiden song that's not all about stupid things.

The root of all evil

Gaaaaaaaaah

I've tried, I swear I did... I've managed to be an entire week without listening to Dream Theater. But I failed!! I'm a miserable weak bitch! Or these guys are just too damn good >.<



Take all of me
The desires that keep burning deep inside
Cast them all away
And help to give me strength to face another day
I am ready
Help me be what I can be

Opeth - Burden

I, once upon a time
Carried a burden inside
I sung a last goodbye
A broken rhyme I had underlined
There's an ocean of sorrow in you...

A sorrow in me.

Just to keep a habit

Well, I need to post sometimes, so I don't forget about this blog. It is good to hold some thoughts here and later on read them and think about the stupid things I used to think, or how silly and happy I was at the time...

Anyway, all I can think about writing is games and music, everything else should remain where it is. Since I've been on and on about Dream Theater lately, no music this time!

My days are always busy, running from home to work and from work to college. But when I find some minutes off, the first thing I do is to reach to my Nintendo DS on the purse. That must have been the best invested money ever! :D






I keep changing the game I'm addicted to. First it was Zelda, then Mario/Yoshi Games, and now I'm digging to less popular games. I found a great one, which reminds me of Arkanoid, but inverse: you still have to destroy the blocks, but you control the ball instead of the pad, and keep firing up above. It's good to let go the stress on the game, and not on the teachers. :)

There are also strategy games, like Age of Empires and Dawn of Discovery. That fits perfectly, since DS has two screens, one of them being a touch screen, so you can use a stylus as the mouse.



---

Now for a funny fact: I sit around college on break times playing DS, and a boy came to me once and asked whose DS was that. Is it really so hard to believe a girl likes video games? Oh, come on! u_u

---

Just to prov the point that I fail miserably on not writing about Dream Theater: this game post was written listening to DT's 89 album: When Dream and Day Unite. They didn't have James LaBrie back then, but it is great anyway. This must be the best band ever.

Dream Theater - Wait For Sleep


Standing by the window
Eyes upon the moon
Hoping that the memory
Will leave her spirit soon

She shuts the doors and lights and lays her body on the bed
Where images and words are running deep
She has too much pride to pull the sheets above her head
So quietly she lays and waits for sleep

She stares at the ceiling and tries not to think
And pictures the chain she's been trying to link again
But the feeling is gone

And water can't cover her memory
And ashes can't answer her pain
God give me the power to take breath from a breeze
And call life from a cold metal frame

In with the ashes
Or up with the smoke from the fire
With wings up in heaven
Or here lying in bed
Palm of her hand to my head
Now and forever curled
In my heart and the heart of the world

Dream Theater is highly addictive! You should be able to buy it at drugstores! Godamn it!

First, I've listened to Scenes From a Memory, and wasn't able to listen to anything else for months! Some time later, I got their last album, the one they're gonna do the tour here in Brazil, Black Clouds & Silver Linings... GODAMN IT, it happened again!!!

But, as if it wasn't enough to be addicted on two DT albums, I did the stupidity of listening to Images & Words, from 92... It's the third time I've fully listened to this album, only today! I woke up, listened to DT, went to work, listened to DT, went to class, listened to DT, came back home, listened to DT, and now I can't go to sleep, because I'm listening to DT!!!!!!!
Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

I need some help. I mean it.

A saga do split

Não sei se é assim com todo mundo, ou só eu que sou azarada, mas toda vez que algo precisa ser instalado/reparado na casa, sempre dá merda.

A última saga foi a do Split, que eu ganhei de natal e só pude usar ontem. Aconteceu de tudo, mas tem alguns pequenos fatos memoráveis, como a primeira empresa que chamamos, em que o cara só ia fazer asneira (parecia aquela propaganda do mico), alguns canos de água estourados (ok, foi só um, mas ele era beeem grande), além da falta de compromisso das empresas em cumprir com os horários marcados.

Mas, mesmo mais pobre de dinheiros, o resultado final foi bem favorável. Ontem nem tava quente, mas aquela belezinha tava lá ligada, deixando o travesseiro gelado ^-^



PS: Quando sou eu que controlo a temperatura, essas maravilhas do verão são verdadeiros salvadores da pátria. Mas quando são os outros que estão com o controle, me dá vontade de pegar uma marreta e destruir todos!!!!!!!! MUAHAUHA

Heaven's Gate - No Matter

No matter what I say, no matter what I do

Never got any compliments, no respect from you

With frozen feelings, that's the way I had to live

You really like to take, but you don't give


So what's the reason to live a life in hell

You better listen now to the words I say

No more broken hearts, I can't stand the pain

It's all over, my life starts again

No more broken hearts, I can't stand the pain


And I'm free forever

Free forever


But sometimes in my heart, when I feel alone

Doubts going through my mind, am I right or am I wrong?

No more broken hearts, I can't stand the pain

It's all over, my life starts again

No more broken hearts, I can't stand the pain

I love songs that speak for me ;)

Random thoughts after watching a good movie...



I just watched Bonnie & Clyde on TV! It's a famous story, of course, but I had not seen the movie yet. And there's something about these old movies that get my attention. These days I watched a very good one too, but I can't quite remember its name... Well, I guess I'm being very kind to say "these days"... It has been a long time since I don't have anything to do, no free time to do just whatever I want to, which is when I would watch random cool stuff on TV.

But back to the movie! It's old, from '67, and of course, people would think differently, act differently at that time. Things we do now were outrageous back then, and so I understand some "flaws" on it and see it must have been a scandal on those days.

The flaws I mention aren't really flaws. It was friggin 1967! I guess they didn't know some people pay attention to characters other than the main ones! Or maybe people didn't... Maybe this movie thing was so new they would just watch it, amazed! I imagine people would spend weeeeeeks talking about those movies! Maybe even more time, how the hell could I know??

So what I mean is that it is so easy for me to judge this movie, at this day, without any idea of how things were when it was made.

And still, judging it with my huge experience of 21 years in our time, I think it is a great movie. First of all, it is a love story. So naive, at first, but then you begin relating the events on the movie (not the thefts, I hope) with the events of your own life, and you find that it does communicate, it does give you an extra feeling after it's finished. Actually, that's what makes me think what good movies are made of: when their flaws don't make you lose your focus and when you leave the room feeling something. Of course, not the case when you go out wishing your money back...

But still, my point here (yes, I do have a point) is that exact feeling. What the hell is it? Can anybody else feel that too? Or am I just a crazy bitch with no life, to be so touched by these little things?

I was never good with words, it is really hard to try to fit feelings into these useless things, that can mean a lot in one moment and nothing in another, but I'll try: after watching a good movie, I get this feeling that life is so much bigger. That there are a lot of things yet to experience, still a lot to learn about. I feel the urge to get away from everything and just sit here writing stuff until all the thoughts are out of my mind.

Of course, I can't do that... But still, I sit here and write. And some months later I'll come back here and read it all over again. And I'll see a lot of "flaws" in my writing, in the way I thought about things back here. Just like what I did to the movie...

FF XII Hunts

Why do these bitches are always harder than regular bosses on the game?? I waste my time power leveling to be able to defeat these damn Hunts, and when I meet a story boss, it is so easy that it doesn't even excites me anymore =/

The worse part is that there are bastards, like this guy on the video that can kill Hunts with waaaaaayy lower levels than I do!

I just tried to kill this Gil Snapper, everybody on lvl27, and got as further as I've even been! Just a little life left on the turtle, but then it got "berzerked" and killed my party ¬¬

And this guy does that with party on lvl17!!!!!!!! Seventeen!!!!!! Grrrrr!

Why do I suck at this game? And still, why do I love it?
