Taken out of context I must seem so strange.

fuck, isn't she the best?
sort of didn't know you were as big a fan. (i am the biggest)
Thanks for your note about ipod.
I don't have imperfectly - it is one of four i don't own (along with puddle dive, like i said and not a pretty girl)
We may have to do some trading!!

At the moment, it's a toss up between:
"what is life but reckoning?
-ani difranco"

"you are still a song i sing
to myself when i'm alone"

and after your suggestion
"the world owes me nothing
we owe eachother the world"

(i like this one the best actually)

I NEED ADVICE!!!! no one else understands what i'm going through!!!

added you to friends.

love, avi

GAAaa damn-you-comment..accidentally pressed enter when i didnt mean to and it posted pre-maturely. damn that premature posting.

well, i reckon go for something slightly positive, as much as i love "you are still a song i sing to myself when i'm alone" its slightly remorseful? and i think if its going to be at the back of an ipod foreveerrrrr it needs to be uplifting. look at it like this.. you're on the train, you've just had a big combination jeff buckley and a bad day and you feel like your in need of a big cry, but don't really feel like doing it in public.. YOU CAN JUST TURN YOUR IPOD OVER AND LOOK! IT'S ANI! AND SHE'S TALKING TO YOU! so i reckon, with all that in mind go for: "the world owes me nothing
we owe eachother the world"

also because i suggested it and im indulging in quite a lovely bout of narcissism here. huzzah for narcissism.

yep, all excellent, valid reasons - you are too right.
i thought of getting jeff on the back but ani will always mean everything to me (i owe HER the world) so ani it is. and you're right - not that i catch public transport, hello, YOUVE BEEN IN MY SPUNKY CAR! - but i need ani with me, always.

the quote stays.

...place my order....NOW! xox

Hey! :)

I was just going through my list of interests, and I happened to find your journal. I really love a lot of your interests, jazz being a big one for me as I play the sax and love it, as well as a few other things. Ani Difranco is probably the most brilliant person to walk this Earth in a million centuries. She has inspired me many a time and I thank her for it.

Anyway, sorry to be so sudden, but do you mind if I friend you?

Thanks!
Lisa

Ah, I don't update my lj as much anymore either, so we're in the same boat. ;)

Ah sweet! How long have you played guitar? I play bass guitar, going on two years now I think. I'm no expert though, unfortunately. :P

Oh man, I just noticed that you live in Aussie! lskjflskdj! I love Australia. ^_^ Can't wait for the day when I visit it.
