Dark blue (dark blue)
Have you ever been alone in a crowded room when I'm here with you
I said the world could be burning down
Dark blue (dark blue)
Have you ever been alone in a crowded room well I'm here with you
I said the world could be burning 'til there's nothing but dark blue..
Just dark blue

Songs I Can Never Get Too Much of Part 6
Aug. 13th, 2009 10:52 pmChantal Kreviazuk - Ghosts of You
I have loved this since the first time I heard it. I want to read the book of this song. Or watch the movie that's this same plot. And the music! It's just so good!
I also really love her song "Mad About You," and basically the whole album, Ghost Stories is awesome. (You can hear samples of all the songs on the amazon.com page.)

May. 7th, 2009 11:39 amToday I took my first speed test at 60 words per minute. If you haven't been paying attention, yes I can type faster than that on a normal keyboard, (between 70-80) but I'm learning a whole new keyboard! Which will be much faster in the end.
So I got 84.6% accuracy on the test. Unfortunately you have to get 95% accuracy to PASS a speed test. I missed 46 words during the dictation, which I felt pretty bad about. Oddly enough, when our teacher figured it up and told me the percentage, I felt a lot better. Like, "Hey, in NORMAL circumstances, I still got a B!"
Anyway, there are two days left of class this semester, then I have a two week break. (During which I swear I will totally study....haha.)
I am pretty excited about that break, though, especially with the weather heading swiftly toward 80 degrees today. This is about where I'm at:
