Civil Twilight “Letters from the Sky”

This is my favourite song right now, and I have a feeling that it will be for a while. This band is captivating; gorgeous vocals, piano; shocking drums; and of course, a talented plucker. I loved this song from the moment I heard it. And then, I saw the video.

I fell in love with them even more! If that is possible, it happened. Watching them was like watching cool water being poured into your trough after a hard training session. They are refreshing. They are stunning. They are stellar, and I hope that they stick around.

Here are the lyrics:

One of these days the sky’s gonna break and everything will escape and I’ll know

One of these days the mountains are gonna fall into the sea and they’ll know

That you and I were made for this

I was made to taste your kiss

We were made to never fall away

Never fall away

One of these days letters are gonna fall from the sky telling us all to go free

But until that day I’ll find a way to let everybody know that you’re coming back, you’re coming back for me

‘Cause even though you left me here I have nothing left to fear

These are only walls that hold me here

Hold me here, hold me here

The only walls to hold me here

One day soon I’ll hold you like the sun holds the moon

And we will hear those planes overhead and we won’t have to be scared

We won’t have to be scared, we won’t have to be scared

You’re coming back for me

You’re coming back for me

You’re coming back to me

George here! Today I am going to use my post to bring awareness to one of the greatest things I have heard of since non-spray bug repellent. Operationbeautiful.com. One day I stumbled upon this site and was instantly inspired to follow their dream.

Operation Beautiful gives back self confidence to women by placing Post-It notes with inspirational sayings on them in places where women will find them. Bathrooms, locker rooms, you name it; if a women goes there, the notes go! One of my personal favourites is on a scale in a gym reminding women that they are NOT numbers.

I may be a horse, but I am not insensitive. This registered with my emotions on the treatment of women. Something needs to be done, and I believe that this is the first step. When you write a note, it gives you a feeling that cannot be described.

Three of my friends Ellie, Freya, and Savvy joined up with the OB army. They placed some in their school library, in books that held good meaning to them. After they put the note in the book, they took a picture of it, kissed it, and returned it to its place on the shelves.

The movement, silent and slow even, is powerful. Nothing has touched me quite like this. For being raised in a barn, this is amazing.  I love it more than alfalfa.

George here: Today I am here to discuss my feelings on a car, the 2009 Toyota Yaris. You know what it looks like? It looks like a bug. A japanese bug. A japanese bug that cannot be rid of or killed.

Come Robin. To The Bug Moblile!

Molly Between The Two

George here! The topics for today are…random. I do not have a set plan. You know what? James Dean is a stud. Do not question this at all, because trust me; I know a stud when I see one. Too bad he passed away, although it was a very nice car he had. What an amazing actor, that Dean. Charming looks too.

Molly Ringwald. OML! Gorgeous!-and talented! I saw “Pretty in Pink” just the other day and I loved it! She is such a doll to watch on television. Even if she was wearing those horrid clothes, she still looked ravishing! BTW, it is a predictable movie but still great! Duckie is the greatest! You have to love him!

I hope you all are alright with me jumping in like this. I know, I gave you all no warning whatsoever as to my being but I do hope I am doing well. Do not take my opinions for fact, because they are not necessarily that. And do not take my facts for opinions because that is not what they are!

Most of the world, I am sure, has heard some, if not all, the song “Lollipop”. (FYI: “lollipop” is the longest word you can type using only your right hand!) I believe it was originally done by Lil Wayne, but I am no expert. Anywho, this band Framing Hanley redid “Lollipop” and it is amazing! I love it! I was not a big fan of the original version, but I like Hanley’s version a lot! I think you should check it out, but beware; in this version you hear exactly what the lyrics are-there is no mystery! Still great, considering the wording.

You know who I love right now? Well, two people actually. (As my writing progresses, you will find out I love/like a lot of famous people.) First, Stella McCartney. Second, Agyness Dean. I have an ongoing obsession with these two lovely ladies! They are both extremely talented and worth every bit of praise they receive. Stella’s clothes are beautiful and Agyness is well, Agyness. With a name like that, she has to be good! Looking at Agyness, you see beauty, but you also see someone (my opinion here) who seems personable and very approachable. She has a great sense of style and is fastly becoming one of my top idols. I appreciate the fact that both of these women are not getting wasted out in some club then crashing their Ferrari’s into a palm tree. We don’t care that you can smash a highly expensive car into a palm tree. No one cares actually; they will just call you stupid for ruining a piece of machinery that awesome. Stella also comes from one of my favorite families. We Brits must stick together! I love Paul and I love the Beatles, and of course, it’s only right for me to love Stella’s clothing and designs. But even if I did not worship the Beatles and such, I would still appreciate her sense of style and her eye for everything. She has the golden touch in fashion design, and Agyness has the golden walk.

You know what else I love? YouTube. I think it is great that you can watch videos and such from across the globe, and you can post your own to share with everyone. I love it so very much. Some of the videos make me cringe, but most make me laugh super hard and then look around the room to make sure no one saw me laugh super hard. People can also learn a lot from YouTube. If you see someone break their arm because they jumped off their roof, don’t do it. If Hannah Montana falls off the stage in 37 inch heels, don’t perform on a stage. You get the idea. If you witness someone doing something you might like to try and then you see that something bad happens to them directly related to the “incident” you just saw, learn from that. DON’T DO IT! And remember, it’s only funny when it happens to someone besides you. (Unless you get it on video, then it might be funny after awhile.)

Well, I guess that is all for today. I am drained of ideas for the moment but expect more soon! BTW: if I have typos (trust me, I will!) feel free to tell me. I can’t guarantee that I will go back and fix them, but I will try and be more aware for the next time! Adios! _George

Hello world!

Salut! I am George. I am a sarcastic horse who has decided to leave the barn and enter the daunting expanse of the internet. My writing is really not the best, but whatever! My thoughts really don’t matter, but I felt compelled to start a blog (don’t know why). Hopefully, some humour will shine through, but if not, I apologize in advance.

My life has been filled with dung, flies, plastic combs, and goats. The faded red of my barn was too much for me; I had to leave. Breaking through the fence one evening, well, it was exhilirating! The world had never seemed so welcoming! No more fly spray!

Anyway, this is my attempt at a hobby. I do hope that I will not fail miserably. If I do, atleast there will be more witnesses than the barn swallows.
