Amen, DreamOutLoud. Welcome to the forum, by the way! Always nice to have another U2 fan around here! :D

Always learn from experiences, learn from people you've come into contact with in your life. You can never completely forget about someone. Unless, of course, that person's an online friend. Then you just have to stop updating your journal and never go online.... Then it's very easy for someone to forget about you.

I'm a music slut. Wow.

I speak english, obviously. I've been taking spanish for 3 years now, and can read it fairly well. I suck at writing and speaking it though! :lol: I don't know what I'd like to learn, maybe Italian? That's always seemed like a very romantic language to me, for whatever reason.

"Miracle Drug" I want to trip inside your head Spend the day there To hear the things you haven’t said And see what you might see I want to hear you when you call Do you feel anything at all I want to see your thoughts take shape And walk right out Freedom has a scent Like the top of a new born baby’s head The songs are in your eyes I see them when you smile I’ve seen enough, I’m not giving up On a miracle drug Of science and the human heart There is no limit There is no failure here sweetheart Just when you quit I am you and you are mine Love makes nonsense of space And time will disappear Love and logic keep us clear Reason is on our side, love The songs are in your eyes I see them when you smile I’ve had enough of romantic love I’d give it up, yeah, I’d give it up For a miracle drug, a miracle drug A miracle drug Oh God, I need your help tonight Beneath the noise Below the din I hear a voice It’s whispering In science and in medicine I was a stranger You took me in The songs are in your eyes I see them when you smile I’ve had enough of romantic love I’d give it up, yeah, I’d give it up For a miracle drug, for a miracle drug Miracle, miracle drug This song is even more poignant now.... :(

Lil'eskimo, thank you. It means a lot to me to know other people understand. I'm sorry for the loss of your dog as well... :( All I can say to the second half of your reply is "Amen".

I hope so as well. I noticed a lot of people complaining about how U2 hasn't stepped out yet and made a public statement. But if it does involve a child, or even one of their older children/wives then I don't blame them for not wanting the media attention. We have the information, now those of us with tickets just have to do what they can. I should stop reading the horrible threads on Interference with a bunch of people complaining about not being able to see them in such and such days now. If U2 canceled the entire first/second and third leg back when they did the first postponement, then I wouldn't have complained, even if I had all my tickets. All I can do is pray for the Edge and his family to get through this (because at the moment I believe that that's most likely who it is.) :( This is aweful news....

Yeah. I heard Edge's daughter, Sian (who's 8) may have leukemia... It apparently came out in a newspaper/tabloid and Edge sued. Everyone should, no matter who it is, say their prayers or send any good wishes they can to the guys and their respective families. :( Let's hope it's nothing serious.

Kind of like in Se7en, when the guy gave the people choices like. "Either take these pills and end your life now, or call for help and have your face cut off." and the businessman who had to cut off one pound of his own fl-- Sorry. I like that movie though! :lol: Er... If I had to choose I'd... Yeah, probably cut off my left arm, so I could write with my right. Plus legs would be too big to cut through. Wow that is probably the weirdest 2 minutes of thought I ever had :lol:

Erm. I usually wake up around 6, then lie around 'til 6:30/6:45, thinking about how much I don't want to get up. :lol: I leave for school about 7:15, so my morning's are a bit rushed because of my laziness. Sleep? Er. I should really be sleeping right now. I don't work well on less than 6 hours, but it looks like I'm going to have to manage tomorrow. I slept for 4-5 hours today since I didn't go to school... but. Yeah. Usually I go to sleep around... 11/12pm.

Oh whoa. That must have been quite the fiasco!! Thank gawd that won't be happening anytime soon. Was it sort of like a ..... goatse character? Damn. That would have seriously sucked... 0.0

Thanks Reilly :( It sort of feels like losing a little piece of my childhood... Every memory I think back to, he's around. I don't know how to react to this. I didn't exactly see it coming. Like, we weren't all "Ok, next Wednesday at 12:30 pm we're putting Timmy to sleep!" instead it was just this morning my mom woke up and he couldn't walk, was going to the bathroom on himself, etc etc. He'd been like this for a few days now, and I guess we just knew it was time... Sorry about blabbing about this, but I guess blabbing might be a good way to deal with it. Maybe the reality will hit me in a week or so when I really realize that he's not going to be greeting me at the door anymore. *sigh*

...I am dealing with death, right at this moment. This thread is incredibly ironic... How'd you know, Reilly? It may not be a major death to some people, but this morning we put my dog that we've had for 12 years to sleep. He was probably about 15 or 16 years old, and definately lived a good, hardy life. But thinking about that doesn't make it any easier. He was like a brother to me. It's really like losing a major part of my family. At the moment, I'm sort of numb to it. When I think about him actually being dead, I don't cry. But when I think about how he used to be, and the things he used to do, well... Then I do start to cry. So I'm pushing all that out of my mind and just not confronting it. So I guess the way I'm dealing with death is ignoring it. I can't ignore it for too long, though. Everytime I look at our other dog (a much younger one, but she and Timmy were definately in love) I start to cry. She just looks so confused and lost, a lot like how I might feel if I lost my actual brother. Poor thing.... It's hard to think about it, I wish he had gone naturally, in his sleep. But dogs hardly ever do that. I keep thinking, did we make the right decision? Which I'm sure we did. But something about that induced death just won't get off my mind. Great. Now I'm getting upset again. So I'm going to forget about it and listen to my music... :(

I love Saturdays. Soooooooooo much. Mmmmm Saturdays.... Reilly. Your signature is the most beautifulest thing I've ever seen. :lol:

U2's Vertigo '06: Final 10 Dates Postponed It is with great regret that The Next Adventure and Michael Coppel announce the postponement of the final ten dates of U2's Vertigo '06 Tour. This action is unavoidable due to the illness of an immediate family member of one of the band. The effected dates are listed below."Any fan of U2 will realise that this decision has not been taken lightly', said TNA President Arthur Fogel. 'We will announce further details as soon as we have them." The affected shows - which are all sold out - are: March 17 & 18 AUCKLAND Ericcson Stadium March 21 BRISBANE Queensland Sports & Athletics Centre March 24 & 25 MELBOURNE Telstra Dome March 28 ADELAIDE AAMI Stadium March 31 & April 1 SYDNEY Telstra Stadium April 4 YOKOHAMA Nissan Stadium April 8 HONOLULU Aloha Stadium http://coppel.com.au/artists/U2/postponed.html ...I hope that everything is OK.... Oh my gosh... This sounds serious, to make them postpone all these shows like that... I really, really, REALLY hope that everything works out. Bono, Larry, Edge and Adam are the four best men in the entire world, they (and especially their families) don't deserve anything bad to happen to them. ...:( And I don't want to hear any complaining about the tickets. Sure, I feel pretty bad for the people who had tickets. But not THAT bad.

I'm watching! I watch the show more out of habit than anything else. Has Taylor Hicks gone yet? He's my favorite. That guy's nuts!! LMFAO! I want him to bust out his harmonica again, that was really cool. Mandisa (or however you spell it?) was amazing last night, wasn't she? I don't usually get blown away by anyone on American Idol, but that was the first time a performance ended and I thought about rewinding my TIVO. Then Simon said that and I was like "whoa." ....OMG I missed Taylor!!!! :(

IMAGE COOOOOOODESSSS!

I love how people who don't like someone give AWESOME examples for their h8ternezz. Psh.

I LOVE TORI. h8taz r poopie

I'm sure he will... I don't like to see him suffer anymore... :( It's still sad though. And I dedicate 'Twisted Logic' to the world :lol:

I'd like to dedicate 'Yellow' to my dog, Timmy, who's being put down today..... :(

Fly To Me-Keane

I'm going to see it again this weekend with my friend. I just can't get it off my mind. It's been a LONG time since I've seen a movie that affects me like this... It makes me fall in love with cinema all over again.

sniggirb.... We have the same exact top 4. And I didn't even read yours before making mine. THAT'S JUST WEIRD. I love your music taste, haha! :) 1. U2-Achtung Baby Sometimes these lyrics fit my life so well it's disturbing. Bono's voice astounds me each time I listen to it. I turn up 'Zoo Station' to full blast and marvel in the technology and layers upon layers of incredible sounds. Each time I listen to it it sounds new. 2. U2-Joshua Tree Wow. Yet again, this is another album that I can never tire of and it never ceases to amaze me. Almost a full 360 turn from Achtung. The best of U2's work in the 80s. I know there are those who say U2's Holy Trinity of sorts is Streets/Still Haven't Found/With or Without You. But I say it's One Tree Hill/Exit/Mothers of the Disappeared. Absolute genius. 3. Coldplay-A Rush Of Blood To The Head I wouldn't be here if it weren't for this album. I probably wouldn't be such a huge U2 fan without this album (since Coldplay introduced me to them). In fact, I wouldn't be who I am today without this album. From the opening, smashing chords of Politik to the final bass line of Amsterdam, it's brilliant. 4. Keane-Hopes and Fears I'm listening to this right now, actually. I've had the album for a couple months now and it still sounds completely fresh to me. Tom's voice is right next to Bono's and Chris' to me. It's absolutely beautiful. Each song on this album can stand on it's own. And what's so incredible about that? It's a debut album. 5. Radiohead-Ok Computer I'm just addicted to it, simple as that. 6. The Beatles-Abbey Road The swan song from one of the best bands of ALL time. 7. Rolling Stones-Exile On Main Street "Shiiiiiiiiit, whoa." is all I can say. 8. Arctic Monkeys-Whatever People Say I Am... Yet another brilliant debute album. It gives me more and more hope for the future of music each day. 9. George Harrison-All Things Must Pass Holy crap I love George. And everything on this. Especially 'Wah Wah'. Guh. 10. The Who-Tommy Set a new standard and category for rock. Honorable Mention: Led Zeppelin-III I may not listen to Zeppelin as much as I have in the past. But that doesn't mean that this album isn't still one of the best things ever.

Wow. That's random. But there's no way to know if that's real or fake. I will bet you anything that it's a fake.
