A few good songs I like, and a Cold bed...

Erm, think I'll tackle the Vlogs in the next few days, not feeling that confident about it yet. Finding it so easy to write my thoughts down on the laptop these days. Only last year, I would have rather wrote, with a pen, in my big rainbow journal... *sigh*. It's not seeing much work these days...

So, I'll be putting a few videos up (maybe just 2 for now, don't want to flood the place).
First off it Sam Sparro's video ""Black & Gold". It is such a catchy tune, I just love this sooooooo much!
"I wanna be next to you, Black & Gold, Black & Gold, Black & Gold...."



And another song I love is this band The Ting Tings and their song "That's not my Name". I had loved this song a while ago, but just didn't know the name of the band, was stuck in my head for a while. Their video is just so fun and bright and colourful :) See what you think...



So, I kept waking up thru the night, and it was freezing. Had turned off the heater, cos its not good for your health to be on all the time! And the duvet was quite small, Mum had taken the other duvet to wash it at home a week ago. This was on me, and I was still cold and kept covering it on, and no warmth. Was too stubborn to put on the heater (erm, ok, more like half asleep and lazy)....

Am up now and threw an old winter coat on the bed as well. But, it's still cold! Tis not good at all! :)

I'll write more later :)

'Léimigí Thart' - Des Bishop ('Jump Around' - House of Pain)

You'll love this!!!

Dún do chlab, dún do bhéal
Éist le mo scéal, má cheapann tú go dtuigeann tú, tá tú ag cur i gcéill,
Tá mé ag dul go nua Eabhrac, ceangal mé le slabhra,
Goile a mhac, ná bí (ag caint anseo???) i lár an tsamhraidh
(súistí búistín buaille beag a phústín???)
ná bí i do phleidhce, nó gheobhaidh tusa léice
Níl mé ag iarraidh a' éisteacht le do chac-bó
damhsa damhsa gan aon stró
buachaillí gránna, cailíní boga dána
Ní thugann mise aird ar na gardaí síochána
Ag an gCeathrú rua, Amach anseo faoin dtuath
léim anois léim anois léim anois go luath
má tá sé mícheart, má tá sé mícheart, is cuma liom, is cuma liom,
léimigí thart!

Léim thart! Léim thart! Léim thart!
Fág seo, éirigh as do pholl, is léim thart!

Léim, léim, léim , chuile duine léim, léim, léim,
gach duine léim, léim, léim, chuile dhuine léim, léim, léim

Freastalóidh mé thú ar nós John McEnroe
má shiúlann do bhean suas, buailfidh mé an hó!
Cá bhfuil do chlann, cá bhfuil do chairde, cá bhfuil an ceol, (suas in airde???)
Agus díreach (ar do thuiscint, tá mé ag rith???)
Má fheiceann tú mise, (b’fhearr duit???) bagairt a rá
Mar tá mé ar nós Tom Cruise sa scannán sin top gun
Ní stopadh tú mise leis an Shotgun!
Má dhéanann tú 's cuí go luath
Agus beidh tú i do staic
Ní éiríonn tú arís go deo, sin an craic
Anois mo stór, éist le mo ghlór,
amach ar an urlár ar nós Peigín leitir mór
má tá sé mícheart, má tá sé mícheart srl

Is mise an fear is fearr, so tá mé thar barr,
Ní fheicfidh tú mise i mo sheasadh (as an lár???)
Ná ag an deireadh ach an oiread an taobh eile don droichid
má thagann siad chomh fada liom, cuireadh mise iad,
amach ar an bportach, agus iad ag baint mhóna,
Déardaoin, De hAoine, De Satharn De Domhnaigh,
Suas suas ‘s síos agus ar ais arís,
Dún do straois, tá sé salach agus clúdaithe le smaois
(Do héadan bheidh caillte , an teallach sin duitse???),
Fainic thú féin nó ní thógfaidh mé uaitse
Má tá sé mícheart, má tá sé mícheart srl

Tá mo homies as Conamara
M'abhailies, m'abhailies as Conamara

Muintir na Gaeltachta, agus muintir na hÉireann freisin,
Tá an réabhlóid ag teacht go luath

Sin é, sin é, sin é , sin é [TRÉIG]

Tibet Protest at Trafalgar Square April 06, 2008

A friend sent me this video of the Free Tibet protest (he didnt video it, just thought it was funny). So sad, this event is supposed to unite people around the world. I feel bad for Tibet, but this isn't the way to change things.

Cailín na Gaillimhe (Galway Girl)

Bhuel de thug mé cos ar an siúlóid mhór
Thart ar lár an lae
Is de bhuail mé le cailín breá dathúil
Agus thosaíomar ag plé.

Agus n’fheadar é,
Cad a tháinig orm.
Lena gruaig chomh dubh
Is a súile gorm.

Agus thóg mé a lámh.
Thug mé rince di,
Agus phóg mé cailín na Gaillimhe.


Bhíomar leath-shlí tríd nuair a d’oscail an spéir
Níos déanaí ins an lae.
Agus rith muid síos chuig an árasán
Chomh bog an lae i-ay.

Agus n’fheadar é,
Cad a tháinig orm.
Lena gruaig chomh dubh
Is a súile gorm.

Ach thóg mé a lámh.
Thug mé rince di,
Agus phóg mé cailín na Gaillimhe.


Bhuel de dhúisigh mé agus mé liom féin
D’fhág sí mé i-ay
Le mo chroí bhríste bhí pian laistigh

Agus n’fheadar é,
Cad a tháinig orm.
Nuair a chas mé leis an gcailín sin

Tá feicthe agam gach uile rith
Ach ní a leithéid le cailín na Gaillimhe...

Leona Lewis... You had me at OMG!

Could you believe it? This is a singer I never really liked from the start when her chart No.1 song played at my last job on Friday and Saturday nights. Leona Lewis, or that one my boyfriend refers to as the doggie from the Bus Eireann ad (yes, that doggie)...

She's made it to No.1 in the US Billboard! Straight up there! I'm shocked! Well, if the information is right, she's the 3rd British woman to top the Billboards since they first started.

Fair play girl! I still don't like your music, but here's to you...

His Galway Girl...

My Cork boyfriend was telling me of all the comments he was getting from having this video on his page. He should be proud, going out with a Galway girl and all...



What do you think guys? Giggle. x ;) Thats for you Ol :)

Recruitment Agencies.. Nothing going for me there....

Look, I don't have a qualification in any of this stuff. People give me these websites and there I am, thinking "God, I can't do this cos I honestly have nothing to my name but jobs in bars and shops"... Getting me more confuzzled..

Woke up at 1pm (but I WAS gonna wake up earlier), and going thru these agencies the last two days. Felt like crying. If anyone can hire a girl thats worked in 1 bar, 1 shop and a few food jobs, with 1years cert in Multimedia Authoring, with a little experience in secretary work... Please pick me :(

On another note, I visited the Tate Modern gallery yesterday afternoon. Really loved it, especially the Surrealism part on the 3rd floor. Took a particular note of some of Pablo Picasso and Francis Bacon's work. Liked Picasso's "The Three Dancers", and an art video made by Maya Deren called "Meshes in The Afternoon". Used to love reading about dreams when I was younger, and these images came with the books, a lot of Surrealism. Watch these two parts and see what you think...


Something to think about :)

First day on the Blogging Job...

Hey there...

Haven't blogged in a good year or two, too much happening, and such little time. Whereas now, I've too much time and lost, mainly of my own doing.

My sister got me onto this really good song from an LA girl called Katy Perry, not sure now how to link Youtube stuff, so here goes...


I like her, she reminds me of Lily Allen and a tiny bit of Kate Nash. Still can't believe she's from LA...
