IllaPhilosophus

Illa Philosophus is Latin for "She Thinker". I'm always thinking about something important, and this is where I'll write it all down. it may mean nothing to the people reading, but it means something to me.

Waiting on my world to change...

It's been a week since I updated. Not a good week. School and work are stressing me out. Plus I'm having major issues with some other stuff, and it's making me really emo. Maybe it's because I'm emo that I'm having the issues. I think they actually go hand in hand. But I've started another blog to write down all that's going on in my head. I'm not sure if it's making me feel any better, but I'll do it for a little longer to see if it helps to have it written out instead of just in my head. Too much is in my head right now.
But anyway, I'm not dealing well with being back at school and work at the U-Club. I'm not sure what the problem is exactly though. Tory thinks I work too much, and after just a week I'm starting to agree. But I can't reduce my hours for this year any. I will for next semester though. It's pretty sad that I can't handle 2 classes and 16.5 hours of work each week. But I'm thinking that it's the other stuff going on that's making me stressed out about school and work. Under normal circumstances I'd think I had an easy semester, but right now it's all too much.

I think I need to take Tory's advice on a certain something.

This is a song that I heard while sitting at a movie with Tory. (we tried to see Pirates 2, but the film burned, so we got our money back) At first I just liked the way it sounded, but then after listening to it, I'm seeing how much it's true for me. It's "Waiting On The World To Change" by John Mayer.



me and all my friends
we're all misunderstood
they say we stand for nothing and
there's no way we ever could
now we see everything that's going wrong
with the world and those who lead it
we just feel like we don't have the means
to rise above and beat it

so we keep waiting
waiting on the world to change
we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change
it's hard to beat the system
when we're standing at a distance
so we keep waiting
waiting on the world to change

now if we had the power
to bring our neighbors home from war
they would have never missed a Christmas
no more ribbons on their door
and when you trust your television
what you get is what you got
cause when they own the information, oh
they can bend it all they want

that's why we're waiting
waiting on the world to change
we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change
it's not that we don't care,
we just know that the fight ain't fair
so we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change

and we're still waiting
waiting on the world to change
we keep on waiting waiting on the world to change
one day our generation
is gonna rule the population
so we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change

we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change
