Seriously! I had always loved the song, but I had been contemplating a very risky move by the time I saw them in concert. I was considering dropping my job and going into grad school -- no job, nothing. Straight-on! The song is basically about being the master (or mistress) of your own fate -- and what can happen if you don't take control. I saw AIC live right when I was really stressing about the whole grad school thing. That song just hit me in the gut. I was going to rot if I stayed in the same position with my job and life in general. I had to make a "decision", even if it were drastic. I'm in the process of packing up my apartment now, and I'll be headed to the one I've already secured early next week! (That's why I've been MIA for so long. Handling a demanding job while in the grad school application process leaves no time for ANYTHING else!) Alice in Chains’ “Your Decision” is largely responsible for literally changing my life.

Favorite book, I have a couple Hexwood is pretty good by diana wynne jones. Almost all of Agatha Christie's mysteries. Clazziquai, Gackt, LM.C, those are the artist that I am loving as of late. These are in no particular order in my life right now, but most are recent favs. I don't have an all time though, LOL. Inception is a good runner up righ about now.

Some all time favourites: - Train: Drops of Jupiter (crazy words I loved to be able to say as fast as he did) - Travis: Love will come through - I watch Grey's, but the first seasons were super for gathering the soundtracks, that's where I discovered it, I find it beautiful and the rhythm just soothes you. - Chayanne: I love all of them, but Torero is my all time spanish dance like crazy. - All the Creed, which turned to Alter Bridge and back to creed I think... - and way too many others, music is too good to miss out by choosing one kind only. Movies: - This will sound silly, but I've watched it as many times as crazy fans have watched Titanic( I thought 42 times at that point was really crazy) but this one I even listen to only when I'm doing something, sort feels like family: Pride and Prejudice, the new one with Keira. - Bolt - 'I'll get my ball' and Rhino are up on the bookshelf smiling to me daily - Inglorious Basterds for its variety, but I'm starting to not be able to watch war movies anymore Books - Orson Scott Car's 'Ender's Game' ( Luci gave that one to me when I was going home once, it was the first book I practically ate). It's actually a whole series, but the first one is beautiful. That's when I knew I would love SF. - Harry Potter, yep, I'm such a kid, but reading all 7 is not just reading all 3, she gave a huge plot for all the exits to come out great. - the Lord of the Rings, I should have put it in front of HP, he's pretty much the father of that whole fantastic universe and I like the way several-volume boxsets look in the bookshelves... These are my childish tastes... but you are really just asking for ours, what about yours? :( Don’t hate me for saying this, but we liked it ’cause they did a damn good job on the effects, plus I’m a nature freak and I would looove to have such a world of which I could feel the tiny heartbeat of a tiny animal miles away because we’re all connected.

Ok, enough venting. It's just that I don't find it appealing. I think I got my James Cameron fix with Titanic ages ago.

Pensive, but not emo, thoughtful without being too self-indulgent. Just amazing, cannot wait to own a copy!
