Don't you know this life goes on...

There's not much to tell about today, I woke up this morning after a long sleep last night, finally I slept longer than a few hours. It's just a shame that it was because I am not 100% well. I didn't end up reading anything last night, I was just too tired, so I put on my very favourite CD (played through my laptop), unplugged the computer so it was running on battery power and would eventually turn itself off, put the CD on repeat and lay in bed listening to the most sublime music I have ever heard. For anyone interested, the CD is the soundtrack from the movie 'The Mission' with music by Ennio Morricone. I have loved this CD since the very first time I heard it.

Tonight I spent some of my iTunes music money and now I am listening to my new David Gray CD 'White Ladder', one of the titles Rhonda gave me when I was visiting.

My observation classes went well today. The very first class I went into played a song that all the children sang along to, 'Country Roads' by John Denver, which was a little bit of a coincidence after the title of my post the other day 'Some days are diamonds'. Listening to the lyrics of 'Country Roads' today brought another tear to my eye. "...take me home, to the place I belong..." I am so far away from home. I don't want to be sick so far away from home.

I made it through my day, I was very grateful for the huge break between my morning classes and my afternoon classes, it gave me the chance to come home and have a hour and a half sleep. Now it's 20:30 and I am just about to go back to bed. I am soooooo tired. I have hardly eaten all day, simply because I could not stomach the thought of eating anything. I have drunk copious amounts of water, and I still have a headache. I looked in the mirror earlier and my eyes are so black, it looks like I went a couple of rounds with Mike Tyson. My body pretty much feels that way as well, I am aching from top to toe. I hope I feel better tomorrow.

Oh, my favourite David Gray song has just come on, ‘This Year’s Love’

This years love had better last
Heaven knows it's high time
And I've been waiting on my own too long
But when you hold me like you do
It feels so right
I start to forget
How my heart gets torn
When that hurt gets thrown
Feeling like you can't go on

Turning circles when time again
It cuts like a knife oh yeah
If you love me got to know for sure
Cos it takes something more this time
Than sweet sweet lies
Before I open up my arms and fall
Losing all control
Every dream inside my soul
And when you kiss me
On that midnight street
Sweep me off my feet
Singing ain't this life so sweet

This years love had better last
This years love had better last

So whose to worry
If our hearts get torn
When that hurt gets thrown
Don't you know this life goes on
And won't you kiss me
On that midnight street
Sweep me off my feet
Singing ain't this life so sweet

This years love had better last
This years love had better last
This years love had better last
This years love had better last

This is such a simple beautiful song.

Well with that, I’m going to bed. Nighty, night. :)
