There was a fire just a short walk away from my house today! Haha, I feel like such a little photojournalist! I love the cross in the top left... very subtle, if I do say so myself, hehe.

It is on the 3rd fret... but I can't for the life of me figure out how to play it from there! :laugh3: ARGH I hate this song (not really). :laugh3:

Yes (Acoustic Chords) Capo 1st Fret Sorry, I'm not tabbing out the strumming pattern or anything, and I'm guessing this isn't the way Chris plays it, but so far this is the closest I can get to the album version. I have a feeling the tuning isn't standard... Read the tab as if the capo isn't there. E A D G B E |x--x--10-10-10-0-| and later |x--x--10-8--10-0-| |x--x--10-8--9--0-| |x--0--12-10-9--0-| |x--0--11-10-9--0-| |0--11-10-10-0--0-| |0--10-10-9--0--0-| I'm not sure if this is right but it sounds like Chris does this when the verse starts |------0-----------| |------10----------| |-10-/-8-----------| |------10----------| |------x-----------| |------x-----------|Annnd hopefully you can figure out where everything goes from there. Here's a little clip of me playing the chords... quite badly, but whatever. http://media.putfile.com/Yes-Chords or http://uploadfile2.putfile.com/getfile/1202092920video1234sslash21414320330.mp3

:uhoh:

^:laugh3: Duuuude. Back in the day me and Crystal (ClearAsCrystal) would spam this thread with PAAAGES of Hugh! I'm not as obsessed now, but still.... yum. :)

I *finally* got around to cleaning my room! It's still a bit devoid of personality, but I tried to fill up my walls with cheap homemade posters. Too impatient to go buy some! Current theme = Viva La Vida! The thingy I painted on my front door (and Chris's autograph!): Mah bed w/ VIVA painted above it: The art corner: Where I spend most of the time in my room. ;) You can see my working pass for the LA concert on the beam on the right, haha.

ZOMG! And of course.... :laugh3:

^:stunned: IT'LL BE AMAZING! Muse--still in tip top form! DEAD STARRR!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbRb_YHva24&fmt=18

ZOMG. I. Just. Died. Apparently they just played Dead Star and Space Dementia in Mexico. And the latest pics say that Matt is still dead sexy!

I had my senior portraits earlier so I fixed myself just a little today, hehe. Smiling--not sure what at. Probably at how stupid I must look smiling at no one! :D Ohhh artsy-fartsy.

13?

^oh don't spoil it! :P

zomg it's all over teh internetz!

The second one looks pretty damn good to me... :laugh3:

wot? it wasn't me... :smug: Besides, would this photo lead you to believe otherwise? I think not. :kiss:

:laugh3: Moar captain jack then? :laugh3: Plus the Doctor... haha.

Watch Doctor Who instead. :wink3: Torchwood is a spin-off of Doctor Who... Personally, I hate the cinematography! :laugh3: It's all... Fox Family looking, except the content is FAR from Fox Family material. Captain Jack looks nice though, but I always thought he looked to pretty to be straight the first time I saw him on Doctor Who, and I was right. :laugh3:

^yay Pete! The show was great! And being a volunteer was great, even though I felt like I was gonna have a nervous breakdown most of the time! Tips: - Don't be intimidated by the huge crowds - Don't be discouraged when people turn you down for signatures/emails And more later but I've gotta run

Ello. I just woke up. I was volunteering with Oxfam so I got to see the show for "free"... but we had to work our butts off though! :laugh3: I got seated in Colonade 34... a bit far, but hey. Srsly. Didn't have to pay for anythign but parking. Unfortunately I have no pictures and such. :( Anyway... highlights for me, in no order: - The riff and the end of "Yes"--and all of "Yes" actually - Viva la Vida - Death and All His Friends (the screw up was funny, hehe) - The cheap seats part! (ARGH if they went to the opposite side of the venue I would've been right next to them. That pissed me off) - Will singing <3 - Chris's random rants - Meeting the Oxfam volunteers And lowlights... which are all not really related to Coldplay: - Being rejected when asking for emails for Oxfam "Would you like to help fight poverty with Coldplay?" "No not right now." or "Did you sign up yet?" *dirty look* - Everyone else sitting in their seats around me and not standing... (understandable for the volunteers though since we were standing for hours!) - Being the only one singing in my area - Not being able to sit with my sister like always - The lack of the post-concert euphoria I usually get. I don't know why--maybe it's just because I was really tired, but I felt kinda unsatisfied and depressed after the concert. :(

Oh don't worry I'll make sure you can't avoid it! :laugh3:

HITLER COMMITTED SUICIDE. /thread

O.o luckkehhh I see Nettie! Hehe.

Okay, yeah, it's not really weird at all to like him, innit? :laugh3:

Sorry for not replying sooner! I'm 17. :)

I made some kick-ass banana bread today!
