I love to listen to songs and read the lyrics at the same time, sometimes I even write them down and try to see if I had got them right. This makes me often wonder what the person who wrote the song were thinking at the time and what he is trying to say by the song and the lyric. I often think that songs has a dobble meaning. 

Read this lyric as long as you listen to the song and see how it makes you feel. First time I heard it, I thougt it was just a great song, then I read the lyric and I fell in love with it. It made me think how lucky I am and the fact that there are people in this world that doesn't have anyone nearby and just want to escape from this little earth that we share. 

Life On Mars - David Bowie

It's a god-awful small affair
To the girl with the mousy hair
But her mummy is yelling "No"
And her daddy has told her to go
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
Now she walks through her sunken dream
To the seat with the clearest view
And she's hooked to the silver screen
But the film is a saddening bore
Though she's lived it ten times or more
She could spit in the eyes of fools
As they ask her to focus on

Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Oh man! Look at those cavemen go
It's the freakiest show
Take a look at the Lawman
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the best selling show
Is there life on Mars?

It's on America's tortured brow
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
Now the workers have struck for fame
'Cause Lennon's on sale again
See the mice in their million hordes
From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads
Rule Britannia is out of bounds
To my mother, my dog, and clowns
But the film is a saddening bore
'Cause I wrote it ten times or more
It's about to be writ again
As I ask you to focus on

Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Oh man! Look at those cavemen go
It's the freakiest show
Take a look at the Lawman
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the best selling show
Is there life on Mars?
 

Yesterday, I went for a little drive just to go to the store and buy some milk, but my little one was so tired so I decided to drive down to the beach and see if he wouldn't fall a sleep and maybe I would see something interresting to take a picture of.

Ok, I drove down there but when I was at the end of the road I found out that I had went a little to far into the sand and I was stuck. Hehe, I tried desperetly to get me loose again (without having to call my man to tell him what I had done) but soon I found out that I had suncken the car so deep in the sand that it was impossible to get him up. So I had to face the fact that I had to walk home with my 5 month old son and after only 20 minutes I was having friends over and I hadn't gone to the store yet.

But fortunatly I had the stroller in the back of the car, so I didn't have to carry the boy who wasn't exacly dressed for that. But at the way home I did got few nice shots and I just arrived home before my friends got there, so it all went well and we had a BIG laugh about this and my friends boyfriend helped me to get my car back.

What I learned from this: Toyota Avensis does NOT work well in sand(like this has never happened before, I'm always getting myself into trouble) and I desperatly need a jeep!!!
 

I've added my Picture a day project here over, but I'm still gonna use flickr also, but I think I like this better. I've noticed that people are uploading less on flickr than they use to, I think flickr is dying out.Also I have noticed that people have stopped commenting unless they have to, I meen common, that is not fun. I don't want to put a photo in a group where I have to comment on two other photos that I maybe don't like that much, I just do it becouse I have to. I also don't like to recieve such comments, I feel like I can't know whether the person HAD to comment or if she or he actually really liked that photo. So I'm saying, people seems to have stopped commenting for the right reasons, because they like the photos.

I'm trying to learn all the basics here, it is a little bit different than on flickr, I'm also thanking about moving at least my PAD project here over, the little I've looked around it looks like a little and cosy community. I also like the idea that I can upload music and videos here in, and blog, not that I am very good at that, but who knows, maybe there lives a little blogger in me who is dying to come out.
