Last time Coldplay released a video, I kinda said that it sucked… and since I really like Coldplay, I felt bad! They’ve recently released a new video for their song “Lovers in Japan” and it’s awesome. Really! I caught it about a week or two ago when it was free on iTunes (you have to pay for it now, no thanks), but it hadn’t been up on YouTube yet to post it.
I love the effects, seriously. My only complaint is that I don’t think Chris is going to change his clothes (EVER) until they release another album, but hey, whatever works for you. Enjoy!
A quick converstation this morning between me and a guy I work with. Note: I was supposed to be in at six and I did indeed make it there at six.
Guy: This day is just dragging on. Probably ’cause I’ve been here since four.
Me: Four?? What were you doing here an hour early?
Guy: I forgot about the time change. I thought it was tonight.
Me: TIME CHANGE?! *frantically looking for a clock* Wait, what time is it really?!
Apparently, technology is awesome, and my phone automatically adjusted itself at two a.m. like it’s supposed to. My alarm went off at the new time, I had had an extra hour of sleep without knowing it, and when I glanced at my wall clock while getting dressed… I guess I only glanced at the minute hand!
This is all probably a good thing because I always stress about time change. Wait, that was today, right? Did I look at the clock I actually changed? CRAP, what if I’m the only idiot in the world who changed their clock and it’s really NEXT WEEK??
At the beginning of November 2005, I joined this website where you could create a time capsule of sorts to be sent to you a certain amount of time later. I filled mine out, and set it to three years; it would come to me at the end of October 2008, a date that seemed so far into the future that I was sure to forget about it. Well, I did. Thankfully, though, the email I used for mine is one I still use to sign up for things so I don’t get a bunch of spam in my normal email. I needed to duck into there for a confirmation email one day, and saw this sitting up near the top.
Today I opened it. I’m not going to post the entire thing because some parts are kind of personal, but a lot of it was a pretty interesting look into who I was and to who I hoped to become.
Current
Age: eighteen
height: five six – ish
status: single and not looking… too much.
hobbies: web and graphic design, blogging, writing, crochet, sewing, DANCE
The basics haven’t changed, except now I’m 21 and don’t have time for the crocheting and the sewing very often. I don’t dance as much as I think I used to, either… which makes me kinda sad. (more…)
