Popped into topman on my break today on a reconnaissance

mission if you would. Found some really cool things that i want!!

this shirt is pretty sick, it has a nice subtle design

How awesome is this design! But im not yet fully prepared for summer

really like these chinos, and i already have a cool shirt to match the green pair!

some relief! so a change of pace for the song of the day!

A fitting end to a bad week,

i spent the day at the new canarsie skateparks,

i did not have fun at all! this park was a nightmare.

from the minute i set foot into the park i was disappointed,

from pictures and videos that i have seen i expected a nice big park.

Sadly that was not the case as the park it self was tiny and was also

filled with skaters who didn't know how to watch where they were going.

In addition the park was crawling with these little blood sucking bugs

that would eat you alive as soon as you sat down to rest >:O

Finally we left as the rain came pouring

i will never go there again.

At my house i was greeted with

some more disappointment.

but as i was watched Saturday Night Live

I found a glimmer of hope a artist that i had

never listened too with a song that was weirdly

comforting with no one to confide in, I replayed

this song until i got bored.

SOMEBODY I USED TO KNOW // GOTYE

The video it self is very well done, i would have to say
i fell in love with kimbra's voice!

An amazing song recommended to me by my coworker,
i feel you can pull a lot of different meanings from the lyrics.
The lyrics and singer's voice are both very gripping but the
banjo ads a lighter side and completes this song.

THE CAVE // MUMFORD AND SON

"It's empty in the valley of your heart
The sun, it rises slowly as you walk
Away from all the fears
And all the faults you've left behind

The harvest left no food for you to eat
You cannibal, you meat-eater, you see
But I have seen the same
I know the shame in your defeat

But I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck

And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again

Cause I have other things to fill my time
You take what is yours and I'll take mine
Now let me at the truth
Which will refresh my broken mind

So tie me to a post and block my ears
I can see widows and orphans through my tears
I know my call despite my faults
And despite my growing fears

But I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck

And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again

So come out of your cave walking on your hands
And see the world hanging upside down
You can understand dependence
When you know the maker's land

So make your siren's call
And sing all you want
I will not hear what you have to say

Cause I need freedom now
And I need to know how
To live my life as it's meant to be

And I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck

And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again"
