Scratch that, I have not done that up until today. Today, marks the day I have used 'Dog Days Are Over' by Florence + The Machine twice.
The thing is, that this song gives Annie by Safetysuit a run for it's money in the contest of being my theme song. I've associated myself with the song Annie because besides So I Thought by Flyleaf, it relays my life in a three minute + song.
Many of you must be wondering one of the following:
"Where did Teenage Gamer go?!"
"Why does Angie complain about life so much?"
"Is there a special reason why this girl is obsessed with Alice in Wonderland?"
"Why the hell do people use plaques as coasters?!"
Okay, well, the last question is what I'm wondering. Stupid Ramuel and his cult of followers.
Here are my answers:
1) Teenage Gamer was actually my favorite title for this blog. It was so very...me=like, you know? I changed it because I felt like I had to. My mind is teeming with new blog titles and I don't want to make a new blog every other day so I change my blog titles. I usually narrow it down to two names I'll use per year, so expect Queen of Wonderland here for a while.
2)
Hurrah.
3) I'm not obsessed with Alice in Wonderland. It's actually one of my favorite literary classics and I grew up with the Disney version. I relate to the issues Alice faces in the novel, the books, and whatever so that's how it rolls.
Plus, I like thinking I'm Queen of something. Most of the time I'm either the Queen of Wonderland or the Queen of Nothing and Everything.
It's fun.
(Or I've gone mad.)
4) As for the coaster and plaques, the reason I'm so hung up about that is that I haven't won anything from these past three tournaments. It's depressing, yes, but I've gotten a personal punching bag out of it. My right hook needs to be in tip-top condition.
On another note: I feel like Jesus is teaching me something through my failures. He's teaching me that I need to try harder and that if I put my mind to it and that I remember to give Him thanks that because of Him I'm able to compete, that I will finally win.
I think I'm finally learning that lesson. (Basically, He's telling me to stop whining about my bruised pride and to kick intellectual butt in His name. Just kidding. That would be bad.)
I've been listening to a lot of music lately. Besides Hatsune Miku and Kagamine Len and Rin, I've been listening to Lily, Le Roux, Florence + The Machine, Architecture in Helsinki, and my daily dosage of Jack's Mannequin and Flyleaf.
I love music. It's amazing. It really is.
I think I feel neglected by my friends. That sounds selfish, but sometimes, I don't know if simply wanting something for myself is selfish. Oh, the complicated stuff of life.
I'm going to go do my homework now.
