Ben Folds - There’s Always Someone Cooler Than You

Make me feel tiny if it makes you feel tall,
But there’s always someone cooler than you,

Yeah, you’re the shit but you won’t be here for long,
Oh, there’s always someone cooler than you,
Yeah, there’s always someone cooler than you.

This should be the Tumblr anthem.

Agreed. And: great song.

gooooood song!

SURVIVING YOUR TWENTIES

“They call it the “quarter-life crisis.” It is when you stop going along with the crowd and start realizing that there are many things about yourself that you didn’t know and may not like. You start feeling insecure and wonder where you will be in a year or two, but then get scared because you barely know where you are now. You start realizing that people are selfish and that, maybe, those friends that you thought you were so close to aren’t exactly the greatest people you have ever met, and the people you have lost touch with are some of the most important ones. What you don’t recognize is that they are realizing that too, and aren’t really cold, catty, mean, or insincere, but that they are just as confused as you. You look at your job… and it is not even close to what you thought you would be doing, or maybe you are looking for a job and realizing you are going to have to start at the bottom and that scares you. Your opinions have gotten stronger. You see what others are doing and find yourself judging more than usual because you suddenly realize that you have certain boundaries in your life and are constantly adding things to your list of what is acceptable and what isn’t. One minute, you are insecure and then the next, secure. You laugh and cry with the greatest force of your life. You feel alone and scared and confused. Suddenly, change is the enemy and you try and cling on to the past for dear life, but soon realize that the past is drifting further and further away, and there is nothing to do but stay where you are or move forward. You get your heart broken and wonder how someone you loved could do such damage to you. Or you lie in bed and wonder why you can’t meet anyone decent enough that you want to get to know better. Getting wasted and acting like an idiot starts to look pathetic. You go through the same emotions and questions over and over because you cannot seem to make a decision. You worry about loans, money, the future, and making a life for yourself… and while winning the race would be great, right now you’d just like to be a contender. What you may not realize is that everyone reading this relates to it. We are in our best of times and our worst of times, trying as hard as we can to figure this whole thing out. And really, this is an acknowledgment that you are not alone in this….

~Forever, Chris Brown

…because i think this song is just so damn sexy!…

t’s a long way down,
It’s so high of the ground,
Sent me for an angel
To bring me high,
Girl where did you come from
Got me so undone,
Gazing in your eyes got me
Singing what a beautiful lady
No if buts or maybe’s
Release in my heart and
Its feeling amazing

real world, here i come

instead of going back to notre dame tomorrow like the four previous years, i start work tomorrow. the worst part so far? not buying school supplies. there’s just something so refreshing about new pens and fresh notebooks.

Hello. This is your “you enter the real world on monday” reminder. Kindly get your ass in gear.

My reaction: what’s the calorie intake of an animal like that? I mean, the guy wolfs down 12,000 calories each day, so he obviously knows what he’s doing. Must be something about puppies being more tender, or something. More nutrition?

I kid. He didn’t eat the puppy (that I’m aware of). Sorry for messing up your “awww” moment.

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

“From the moment we enter this life we are in the flow of it. We measure it and we mock it, but we cannot defy it. We cannot even speed it up or slow it down. Or can we? Have we not each experienced the sensation that a beautiful moment seemed to pass to quickly, and wished that we could make it linger? Or felt time slow on a dull day, and wished that we could speed things up a bit?”

~”home,” micheal buble

this song keeps coming up on my ipod shuffle and i always fall back in love with it. reminds me how much i miss some people..

“And I’ve been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
“I’m fine baby, how are you?”
Well I would send them but I know that it’s just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that”

oh girls

it’s always a bad sign when you get a call from your friend saying “i coming home, i don’t want to talk about it and all i want to do is just eat cookie dough.”

(while at the art institute)
me: ma'am, could you tell me where all the monets have been moved? in fact, do where is the whole impressionism section?
desk lady: they're on loan to fort worth texas.
me: awww....why don't they tell you that before you buy your ticket?
desk lady: well...then we would make no money!

people are crazy!

i was sitting at the millennium park foot bath today (kinda like a little river thing that you can dangle your feet in) and some preppy popped collar type of guy was walking around and collecting the change at the bottom! isn’t it illegal to take change from public fountains? it should be!
