In this moment

So its late, I'm a tad sick.. on the up I think though, which is good considering the life I returned to was pretty much the life I left... Funny that, given it was only 3 weeks I was away. Haha... but yes, one can only dream of change I guess. Well that's why we make our own changes. Not all is doom and gloom though, I have a lot to show and a lot that I realised, enjoyed, experienced and also... came back to. Before I get ahead of myself with the tours' experiences and all the pics I could possibly load here, a few things..

-In London, every mechanical machine at every moment... tells you what it's doing when it's doing it
-In all the phrasebooks they give you, there's never a phrase that translates to "i'm just looking" which leads to awkward pointing at eyes motion and smiling - so not cool
-Everyone in Europe can pretty much speak English, well, at least where it matters - behind counters
-Tubing all day every day can make you feel like you're still swaying side to side when on stable ground if you stand still at any given time
-Just because you're on the right number train/tube/tram, doesn't mean you're going in the right direction
-Milka is NOT overrated... ever
-Its virtually impossible to fuck up take away tea. So I started getting that to go...
-The top bunk is not just not fun anymore...
-Having coins on you, is almost always necessary... yes, bathrooms have now become a luxury, not a given
-The Eiffel Tower at night, is NOT overrated
-You do not see sexy italians on tour trips in italy, just... tourists.. really.. they're everywhere.
-The ponte vecchio bridge is dear to my heart
-I will go back to Europe tomorrow If i have the chance...

Bout time...


One thing I don't know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It’s so unreal
Didn’t look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on but didn’t even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch you go

I kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter

I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter

One thing, I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I’m surprised it got so (far)
Things aren’t the way they were before
You wouldn’t even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me
In the end

You kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter

I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter

I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
