Busy working and making poor decisions in my personal life as always (some things will never change).<br />Been getting the bug to start trying my hand at music again. Seeking out guitar lessons and trying to start writing again are my first steps. I really miss being creative - it feels like ages have gone by. I don't want to lose it. It's kind of everything, isn't it?<br /><br />Anyhow, today I started flipping through old sketchbooks and notebooks and finding bits and pieces of songs and poems and lines written over the last 7 years or so, just trying to find some inspiration. Found some interesting stuff, some bad stuff, some good... thought I'd share some with you here. Why not?<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">There you are, the star<br />Consumed by my guitar<br />But I don't mind, not this time<br />'cause it makes me feel you're mine<br />Somehow<br /><br />We're inspired, we are<br />You and my guitar<br />My pen and I<br />We are art.<br />We are beautiful, right now<br />For now.<br />This moment<br />Circled by smoke, and hope</span><br /><br />That one was written when I was 18 or 19. I was dating a guy in a band and I was over the moon for him. He used to pick up my guitar and play it all the time - sometimes it would annoy me because he was in his own little world - but apparently not this time.<br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">Still questioning every step I take towards you</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">But I can't stop my feet from moving forward</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">You're everything I need from 3000 miles</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">And I'm missing you for 3000 miles</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">And 3000 things I dare not say</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">because my heart's locked up in iron gates</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 0);">So I'll put pen to page and hide it away.</span></span><br /><br />*sigh* LA boy... that was written after a boy I fell for whisked me to Los Angeles to be with him. I wrote this when I got back and was missing him so. I think this was around the point where I started to get foreboding thoughts that things were about to sour. And they did. It's funny how I always know things will turn out, and yet still forge on despite it all. I was right to have my heart locked away in this instance. Didn't change the outcome though.<br /><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(102, 51, 0);"><br />Hey lady put those sad eyes away<br />Don't let him see the salt streaks running down your pretty face<br />We've been through this before now don't you cry<br />It's always hard the second time you say your last goodbye.</span><br /><br />Hmmm apparently I only write about boys and unrequited love. What a theme. That one I wrote in New York City where I traveled to visit a boy in the band that I had met and fallen for here in Canada while they were touring through. It was the morning I had to catch my train back to Toronto after a whirlwind of NYC fun. I was lying there beside him while he slept, tears falling down my face. I didn't want to go home. I got up and sat by the window, lit a cigarette and wrote those lines.<br /><br />If I ever turn these into songs I will have a mean episode of VH1 Storytellers ready to go.<br /><br />x and o - Miss Aloverockfiendhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16333718996172925094noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-614563784424935172.post-80216713861091446082010-05-25T20:27:00.005-04:002010-05-25T20:46:17.541-04:00Oh you pretty things...Oh hai...<br /><br />I didn't die. I swear.<br /><br />I'm sorry to have left all three of you hanging. Please forgive me.<br /><br />SUMMER IS HERE - and I'm a happy happy camper.<br />A while back I received an AMAZING package in the mail via my friends at matchstick.ca:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbQ7Rqmgyn7Bways9GCnWngzFU3p06Xl5xdpUdYSQ-mjmx0AJlRb3cNlZTkYRmuQvhMaRC54B7ab1kXcAoIK7kcEKgUuR6Yxy1H_04VgjOgSrzo0aAeZQPJTtD-njwLn7U0zNSvIiqLtY/s1600/eyestudio.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbQ7Rqmgyn7Bways9GCnWngzFU3p06Xl5xdpUdYSQ-mjmx0AJlRb3cNlZTkYRmuQvhMaRC54B7ab1kXcAoIK7kcEKgUuR6Yxy1H_04VgjOgSrzo0aAeZQPJTtD-njwLn7U0zNSvIiqLtY/s320/eyestudio.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5475369565552648994" /></a><br />I may or may not have squealed when I unwrapped it. This beautiful black case came filled to the brim with Maybelline makeup, including the gorgeous shadows and liners from the new EyeStudio line.<br />Now I'm generally a big M.A.C girl - but these shadows are brilliant - they go on smooth and vibrant, and although they have a creamy consistency, they don't gather in creases like most cream-based makeup.<br />Below are some shots of my experiments with the line. Sadly the webcam pics don't do justice to the vibrancy...<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEim6VOsET705cgqH-LZOjMhGTnnTrhYxp5mCzNwqJ5EDhr-2tYPHLzcwesJ5hP6QUTKIrsPgdDLvcjTSKpTLovr4fI-fjV7W4p50E4HDv4HUSLx2vMlG-aN3wsHZRV0cL6-lKJG1yMhSzw/s1600/Photo+312.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEim6VOsET705cgqH-LZOjMhGTnnTrhYxp5mCzNwqJ5EDhr-2tYPHLzcwesJ5hP6QUTKIrsPgdDLvcjTSKpTLovr4fI-fjV7W4p50E4HDv4HUSLx2vMlG-aN3wsHZRV0cL6-lKJG1yMhSzw/s320/Photo+312.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5475371670622290530" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0yH35YGgCgVIquW_-66M8O0w3rSpKKeAJrL4nF3-bSuYkdkrYz0aqwsQ9F8rtcXFcvLDteSgJsiyx3i0faT_wPfrEJMy6DSTBs0-YeZIOb_GeFRwwU3Nn9uirTg95g18rDVM5LVJ-I7Y/s1600/Photo+308.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0yH35YGgCgVIquW_-66M8O0w3rSpKKeAJrL4nF3-bSuYkdkrYz0aqwsQ9F8rtcXFcvLDteSgJsiyx3i0faT_wPfrEJMy6DSTBs0-YeZIOb_GeFRwwU3Nn9uirTg95g18rDVM5LVJ-I7Y/s320/Photo+308.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5475371673548536418" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6oRmzIxp6jxL6JesLyal7gd7zN9idaS6PbEVpp4NP0NvjoRNjRDhm4jToivtnzxkALnPBOMJPQC3-ZjdUA_W43HBONqXNBRQmml-aSYQdyCulx0f7sLk4-oyGM_WQCcdKgM-1cT60hsA/s1600/Photo+307.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6oRmzIxp6jxL6JesLyal7gd7zN9idaS6PbEVpp4NP0NvjoRNjRDhm4jToivtnzxkALnPBOMJPQC3-ZjdUA_W43HBONqXNBRQmml-aSYQdyCulx0f7sLk4-oyGM_WQCcdKgM-1cT60hsA/s320/Photo+307.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5475371663385794002" /></a><br />As usual - Maybelline are on top of the mascara game. A loyal user of their classic GreatLash mascara (you know the pink and green tube), I was excited to try the four (yes FOUR) mascaras that came in this kit. Needless to say I'm in love. The extensions and curling ones are amazing.<br /><br />Well done, Maybelline. I am officially converted. Love these products.<br /><br />More to come this summer - I've decided it is the Summer of love and it will be full of road trips, music, sunshine and fabulous friends old and new!<br /><br />x&o - Miss Aloverockfiendhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16333718996172925094noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-614563784424935172.post-71314160621265073882010-04-18T00:44:00.003-04:002010-04-18T00:53:56.903-04:00Oh Salty...This series of commercials makes me want to cry.

I'm a song and a half in and my heart is already swelling.</div><div><br /></div><div><a href="http://loverockfiend.blogspot.com/2009/10/peter-gabriels-scratch-my-back-features.html" target="0">As previously reported</a>, <i>Scratch My Back</i> is a collection of cover songs from artists like David Bowie, Arcade Fire, Bon Iver, and Radiohead.</div><div><br /></div><div>What I wasn't aware of, is that this album is entirely orchestral - no guitars, no drums. As such it is beautiful, sweeping, lovely and dark. Gabriel has once again set the bar and done something brilliant, unique and cutting edge.</div><div><br /></div><div>Even more exciting is the companion album that is set to follow this, in which the artists who Gabriel has covered will cover <i>his</i> songs. Needless to say, my mind is BOGGLING at what David Bowie will cover and if my mind and heart will be able to handle it.</div><div><br /></div><div>And to top everything off, Gabriel will be performing the album live at only 3 venues in North America this spring. New York City, Los Angeles and Montreal... I believe I must attend, if only I can find someone who shares my passion for Peter that is willing to spend the money to get there - lord knows it will be worth it.</div><div><br /></div><div>I'm still taking it all in - more to come.</div><div><br /></div><div>Tracklisting:</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: 19px;

Trying to decide where my future lies. All I know is it's not in Canada. I have no desire to stay in this country but remain torn about what to do to remedy this.<br /><br />I have a love affair with the US which no one really understands. When I lost my job in November I made a wild plan to save as much money as possible and take off on a 6month road trip across America. I intended to blog the entire experience and share it with you all. <br /><br />I've also always had a supreme love for England. My father was born there and when I visited in 2008 I certainly left a piece of my heart. Now friends are moving there and it's making me wonder if that is a better choice for me.<br /><br />When it comes down to it - I have no chance at eligibility to legally live in the USA, apart from marrying someone, my chances are slim to none. When it comes to the UK I'm likely to be eligible for citizenship or at the very least right to abode since my father and his family are from there - if not I can get a holiday visa entitling me to live and work there for 2 years.<br /><br />I am still torn because I think the road trip would be such an incredible life experience - though it may just be a tease as I'll never be able to live in the places I visit and will ultimately have to return to Canada, broke and miserable. The UK is also extremely far away and if I am denied citizenship I will have to return to Canada as well, with a broken heart...<br /><br />What do you think I should do?<br />Have your say:<br /><script language="javascript" src="http://www.blogpoll.com/poll/view_Poll.php?type=java&poll_id=179663"></script><noscript><a href="http://www.blogpoll.com">Free Blog Poll</a></noscript> <br /><br />x&o - Miss Aloverockfiendhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16333718996172925094noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-614563784424935172.post-57061677639795417172010-01-29T00:18:00.005-05:002010-01-29T00:59:02.298-05:00Bargain Bin timesNew goal: to do it with Viggo Mortenson circa <span style="font-style: italic;">Walk on the Moon</span>.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://fanzone50.com/Viggo/awotm_b15.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 430px; height: 310px;" src="http://fanzone50.com/Viggo/awotm_b15.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://fanzone50.com/Viggo/awotm_b50.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 430px; height: 341px;" src="http://fanzone50.com/Viggo/awotm_b50.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />Seriously?

I'm happy - excited to start fresh... this year is the year my life really begins I think...<br /><br />In other news, I just watched Cameron Crowe's <span style="font-style:italic;">Singles</span>, which for some reason I'd never seen before... Crowe really is a genius. The man just knows how to say it as it is. His films are so unbelievably poignant for me. <br /><br />For the first time in ever I am TRULY happy being single - we all say that sometimes I think in an effort to convince ourselves, but the past couple months have been so liberating - I've made so many changes and big plans that I just feel like I could take on the world.
