AAAAHH can't believe I'm going to Paris!!

I feel so much better and I can't believe I am going to Paris tonight!!
A bit tired from yesterday when I first had a whole day at preschool and then babysat the girls from late afternoon until 00:30. But it was fun of course :) Now I have been packing all day. Starting to get a bit nervous. Don't like flying during the winter. I'm fine with it in the summer. But I have seen way too many documentaries about flightaccidents that can happen because of frost and snow. But it's actually been raining today so the snow is melting. Hoping it'll stay the same tomorrow morning when we take off.

I would like to write a longer post about the band PeepShow who just released their first music video. But since I don't have time to write about this great band now, I'll just show you the video and we'll talk about it later ;) haha. Wow, can't believe I am really doing this. Going to Paris for the weekend. I am trying to not get my hopes up but I just have a feeling that it'll be damn sweet. We all have that feeling. Now take a listen...

Ms Hill, you've got the power to uplift a hill

BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA......

That's how I feel. I am looking forward to Paris but I can't believe it's actually going to happen. Right now I am too focused on preschool and to get through the rest of the days without worrying about my friends. I just feel like I have been a bad friend lately, don't know what I am doing wrong though. As a result, it's hard to fix the problem. If there is one. It's those little comments I get from time to time. Or the unreplied messages... in other words, no comments at all. Whatever my opinon is, it feels wrong. Even though I've had it for quite some time now. I don't know what to do... every day when I come home from preschool I just want the afternoon and evening to go faster so that I can start all over again. At least I'll babysit the girls tomorrow evening. That'll take my mind off things.
I hate taking my mind off things though. Really hate it. When there is a problem I want to fix it immediately. I just don't know where to start now. So all I do is to walk around with this gut feeling that something isn't right.

The only thing that can make me relax right now is Lauryn Hill's voice and inner strength

This Queen of soul is coming to Sweden in January and I so wish that I could see her

Talib Kweli made a brilliant tribute song to her several years ago

What are you really afraid of?

No one is afraid of heights, they are afraid of falling.
No one is afraid to play, they are afraid of losing.
No one is afraid of the dark, they are afraid of what's in it.
No one is afraid to say I love you, they are afraid of the answer.

We only want to be ourselves

I am going to take the time to write a post about Black Veil Brides sometime. But there is just so much to say that I really need the energy for it. Until then I want to write about my favourite of their songs! It's one of their biggest hits and I totally understand why.

The lyrics are interesting though because they seem easy and predictable, but they actually have a background story.
"Fallen Angels" actually comes from the biblical story of the fallen angels. I personally don't know enough about the Bible myself to talk about it. But Andy Biersack, the singer in the band, is very interested in people's beliefs even though he prefers to believe in himself instead of a religion. He explained in an interview that when the holy war happened in heaven there were seven fallen angels who were cast down to earth. These angels fornicated with human women and created the nephilim, or the so called in-betweens. Andy and the rest of the band members interpreted these as the ultimate outcasts or the ultimate weirdos. Just like Black Veil Brides and other rock n´ rollas are seen as today. But a lot of us try to rebel against that. That is why most rock bands sing about being rebels and starting riots. It's not about beating people up for no reason. It's about the psychological riots. To challenge people's prejudice thoughts and to make them understand that we only want to be ourselves. Just like we want everyone else to be themselves too. We want to live in a world where that is okay.

"Kids that listens to rock n´ roll music or dresses in a certain way, they aren't bad people. They just enjoy a certain thing. And they are sort of alienated from a lot of situations in life. That is not neccessarely the case for us. It's more like a complete anthem to that."

When you're gone I'll still be Bloody Mary

I haven't been blogging much lately, simply because there hasn't been much to say. I've been busy all week with being at the preschool (school practice) and will be there for another two weeks. It feels so good seeing the kids again. Not to mention the lovely new teachers who I get to know more and more each day. I feel like we would make a great team if I worked there for real :)

But I thought I'd stop by here and show you guys a cool video that I found yesterday! I was watching Lady Gaga's new video for "Marry the night" when I saw this in the suggestions section. It's an amature video made by a girl as a graduation project. She created a story for Lady Gaga's song "Bloody Mary" and even though she is copying the artist a bit, she has still managed to do a very original video. I have watched it several times by now and really like it!

Sinking my teeth into Santa Claus before anyone else does it.
