Now that I am music deprived, I have taken to countless hours on youtube watching music videos trying to quench my need to listen to music.

A couple of months ago I decided to do this “Song of the Moment” thing to share a song that I particularly like at the given moment. It is supposed to be an insight on the types of music I listen to. If you don’t know already, I don’t really go for mainstream mainstream top 40 artists that much. I like the lesser known artists, who I find to be just as talented, if not more, as the more popular artists out there.

So this time I will share with you a favorite band of mine. They are relatively more popular in the United Kingdom than in America. Currently, they are near the top of the U.K. itunes list and they can be a top mainstream band. See, they kind of have a strong following, which at times propels them up to the top of the charts. This Tennessee band has been a favourite since I was in the 7th grade. I thought I would grow out of the phase of liking them but the thing with this band is that since the beginning, they continue to make bigger and better records, which always seem to capture my interest every time.

Now, without further ado, I present to you…

The KINGS OF LEON.

Song: Use Somebody- Kings of Leon

You all cannot possibly feel what I am feeling right now. Basically, a humongous chunk of my life has gone missing. It was something I looked forward to after a long, hard day of school. It was something I can rely on to make me feel better or cheer me up. It was something I know that could never have let me down. It was my best friend.

And no, I am not talking about my dogs.

I have lost my iPod.

*gasp*

Yes, music has always been a huge part of my life. Cliche, I know. But it was always something I know I could rely on. It catered to my mood and created my own, distinct, unique world where I know I would always feel at peace. And now that my music source has gone missing, I cannot help but feel a little bit sullen and depressed.I guess I never realised how much my iPod means to me. I took it for granted and now I am paying the price.

I tried EVERYWHERE. I know I could have left it in three distinc places and I have torn those three places apart just to find my iPod. I have even done a MASSIVE( and i mean MASSIVE) cleaning of my room. Seriously. I have thrown away eight trash bags of stuff to make my room less crazy and disorganized so I can find my iPod. And the thing is…I’m not even half way done with my room.

All of this just for one small iPod? You betcha. The funny thing is…you know how people say that when you are trying to find something it is hard to do so and when you’re not looking for something, things just pop out of nowhere? Yeah I have tried the not looing for things part and that was an EPIC failure. I guess I will just have to force my way through this. I’ll clean the whole freaking house if I have to…

Well, I just wanted to write something quick so I don’t hinder my posts from coming anymore. I’m going to go back to cleaning my room. HOPEFULLY, I’ll find stuff that are meant to be found.

Guess who is back? Back again. Vicky’s back. Tell a friend.

Yup yup yup. I am back! I know it has been a long time. Actually, long would be an understatement…

Sorry I haven’t been on here for a while. Its just that these last couple of weeks have been so stressful. So stressful, a matter of fact, that I have unknowingly evolved fro Oddish to Gloom.

Evolution

Now, if any of you weirdos out there don’t know what I am talking about, then you’re an EPIC FAILURE.

Anyways, as you already know, Oddish is quite the happy grass-type kiddo. But unfortunately, once Oddish reaches Level 21, he/she/it evolves into…duh duh duh GLOOM! The picture explains all. There is no need for me to elaborate what  type of personality Gloom has. I guess this would relate to me these last couple of weeks. I have, unfortunately, evolved into Gloom, minus the drool and all…I think.

You know, I really have been stressed out lately. Thats another story for another time. But, I realised that this Gloom-type thing wasn’t making me feel any better. I was neglecting my friends, schoolwork, the holidays, and life. BROODING AND ACTING SULLEN WILL NOT SOLVE ANYTHING AND IT WILL JUST MAKE YOU FEEL WORSE. Beleive me, I’ve learnt from exerience.

So, the other day, something hit me. Not literally. But, you know what I mean. The holidays are supposed to be a celebration of friends, family, love, laughter, fun, and life. And by the way I was acting, everything seemed the opposite. Then I made a desicion to snap out of my emo-ness. I knew what I had to do. I knew what needed to be done. And I did it.

I used the Leaf Stone.

Yes, you’ve read correctly. I used the leaf stone. And when I did, a miraculous thing happened. I changed. My power and defences grew stronger. I became more mature and older. It was a new me. Literally. My name even changed. I became…

Vileplume

Okay, you probably think I am a freak now. I’m just different and I am proud of it!

But in actuality,  something really hit me. I was actually listening to the Christmas song ” Baby, It’s Cold Outside” when something inside of me started to break down its walls. I started opening up my mind. And then when ” Rudolph, The Red Nosed Raindeer” came on, my walls of emo-ness security broke down and shattered completely. I was free.

Hehehe, I guess thats going to be “MY” song from now on. But what I am trying to say is that, it is the holidays. You all need to remember the meaning of it all. Its not about presents, Santa Claus, or Rudolph, for that matter. But it is a celebration of everything around you. Life is such a precious, unexplainable, loving gift that was given to us. Don’t waste it. Enjoy every moment. Life is too short to be anything but happy.

Maybe later on today I will write another one post. I have a lot to make up for! But now, I am going to relish and bask into the spirit of it all.

Happy holidays everyone and have a Happy Christmas!
