Bradley+Guitar and "Radio Song" Lyrics...

Today Bradley was messing around with my guitar...
He has been thinking about learning to play bass.
I highly suggest he start with guitar, though...
To me, a bass is a dumbed-down guitar.

Even if it might be an octave lower, the only thing that I could think of that might explain why it even exists, it's still not worth the ridiculous comparison of prices and capability.

Anyway... He was doing all kinds of things with it. He ought to have fun while he can... I'm leaving for Idaho in 5 days... :( I'm going to miss Sarah... makes me nauseous just thinking about it...

I went and looked up the "Radio Song" lyrics...
They are French - I was right. I have a translation.

Radio Song - Superbus
J'en ai jamais assez, je suis vite lassée,
Je voudrais combler ce manque
Mon obsession me hante,
J'en ai jamais assez, je voudrais bien trouver
Que j'ai beaucoup de chance,
Me rendre à l'évidence,

We are we are on the radio now, the radio now !

J'en ai jamais assez, je vois toujours après,
Des fois je me demande
Comment je peux m'y prendre
J'en ai jamais assez, je suis vite lassée,
Je suis jamais contente,
On dit que je suis chiante,

We are we are on the radio now, the radio now !

J'en ai jamais assez, j'aimerais bien penser
A 2 centimètres à l'heure pour éviter les pleurs,
J'en ai jamais assez, je suis vite lassée,
Il faudrait que j'entende, un jour tu seras grande,

We are we are on the radio now, the radio now !
---------------------------------------------

I never have enough, I get tired very easily
My obsession haunts me
I never get enough, I wanted to think
That I'm very lucky
that I've become the evidence
We are, we are, on the radio now, the radio now!

I never have enough, I always see the 'after'
Many times I ask myself:
How can I be sucesseful
I never have enough, I get tired very easily
I am never happy
and they say I'm sanguinary

We are, we are, on the radio now, the radio now!

I never have enough, I wish I though
By 2 cm per hour, to evoid the tears
I never have enough, I get tired very easily
Is necessary to me to understand, one day I'll be big

We are, we are, on the radio now, the radio now!

Receiving the Eagle Scout Award

Today I spent every waking moment dealing with my Eagle Court of Honor.
I had things to write out, I had to iron all of the uniform, there was the actual occasion that evening, and that night I spent dealing with concerns abt... Eliza. Her boyfriend broke up with her - not like we didn't see it coming.

I gave an acceptance speech thingy - it went well, supposedly. I ended up directing it toward the younger scouts and the cub scouts that were there. I gave my two-cents about why Scouting is important and why they should never give up, I think.

That evening I saw Sarah there at church. We spoke for a bit - Everyone was dressed up - it was kind of amusing. Aside a personal fiasco involving her I won't mention, nothing significant happened. But needless to say, clearly the assertion that she's just been busy is true. My freak-out mode officially ended yesterday...

Uh... by the way, for those who wonder, Sarah is my girlfriend, or at least was at one point (complicated i know), and Eliza's my best friend - she lives like 7 hours away these days... but we keep in touch still. She's moving to Utah around the time I go back to BYU-I, so we might hang out every now and then more in the future.


Anyways...
I listen to music from Guitar Hero that I put on my iPod more than I thought I would. I skip lame bonus tracks, but considering the GH songs constitute 88 out of a little over 400 songs I have, I would hear them randomly often.
It's part of getting exercise - I listen to it when I go running.

This is one of my "big news" posts - there aren't very many occasions where I deviate almost completely. But with Eliza's breakup, my Sarah, and my Eagle Scout award thing tonight, there are always things to be blabbing about.
I'll shutup for now.
Peace.

The V-Day Equivalent

Today I got to spend time with Sarah, finally.
We ended up watching a movie with her little brothers.
It was that Jack Black "Kung-fu Panda" movie. It was better than I thought it'd be.

We played with their parakeet, Bobby - her brother Eric keeps it these days, and was out of town at the time or something - they were keeping it for him.
We had a lot of fun. I have missed spending time with her greatly.

With all that's been going on, I haven't had the luxury of time on my laptop these days.
My Eagle Court of Honor thing is tomorrow and there's stuff to be stressed about.

I spent most of the morning going running today.
I need to get back into shape - exercise is important, especially as we're approaching summer.

I hope to get back to Photoshop as soon as possible.

I'm loaded up on Photoshop to-do, ideas, tutorials, etc.
For those of you looking for my usual artwork, I'll have something next time, I promise.
In the mean time, you could take a look at some of these - they're from some of the best.
