I will send you an email of all life's latelies soon. <b>Defying Gravity - Wicked</b> Of course my first song is from a Broadway soundtrack. I listened to this song on repeat the entire day I was packing to leave New York. I cried the entire day but it wasn't just sadness, it was also empowerment from everything I lived the last three months and a deep seated feeling that I would be back soon. Everytime I listen to it now, I am thrown back to that day when I knew nothing could stop me coming back and the feelings come up just as strongly. <b>Frosti by Bjork</b> This is a beautiful instrumental piece which I think is played on a glockenspiel. The first time I heard it was at my friend's house when we were lying in bed and talking. I had taken out my contacts so all her rainbow fairy lights were blurred and this was playing and it was truly magical for the entire one minute forty four seconds. <b>The Wreckoning by Boomkat</b> Earlier this year, the same friend and I got up at 6am after half an hour's sleep to film in the sunrise and this is the song I was dancing to deliriously. The footage from that morning became the feel reel for the film she's directing and I'm playing a role in, which is in pre-production at the moment. Everytime I hear it, I am back to dancing in the middle of the street under the red sun and drinking cordial for breakfast. That's all I can think of right now. And for the record, I like your red hair. Much love. Gosh I have been reading your blog but not been in touch with you for awhile. I will send you an email of all life’s latelies soon.

Defying Gravity – Wicked
Of course my first song is from a Broadway soundtrack. I listened to this song on repeat the entire day I was packing to leave New York. I cried the entire day but it wasn’t just sadness, it was also empowerment from everything I lived the last three months and a deep seated feeling that I would be back soon. Everytime I listen to it now, I am thrown back to that day when I knew nothing could stop me coming back and the feelings come up just as strongly.

Am I revealing too much if I say that Roads is often 'randomly' chosen? Also, HI ELLA! Oh man, Portishead is such a mainstay. Am I revealing too much if I say that Roads is often ‘randomly’ chosen?

Also, HI ELLA!

I hope that said others get to hear that too. Yes but it feels like 1am cos of daylight savings. Take care. That is definitely good to hear. I hope that said others get to hear that too.

We all have our grievances, and take them out where we see fit. And I've certainly hurt others as a result of feeling trapped and frustrated in my own life. I regret it, but I also understand it now. So when people do it to me, I get where it's coming from. Anyway, hope you get a good night's sleep -- isn't it like 2am over there? No worries.

Yeah, definitely better work last time. But any attention is good attention, right? To be fair, it's not quite an army, I believe my fellow troops retired because they realised it's not worth it or productive in any way for any party. I'm just a procrastinator with internet access, with nothing invested but for a feeling of protectiveness of others who you burnt, badly. If it's any comfort, I don't actually read your blog. Darn it, why do I keep giving you ammunition! Another chance for you to be witty and ironic in response ;) "I think it's pretty common knowledge"? You must be a celebrity... what you always wanted! Alright, I'm quitting for good now, sorry (and I am, sort of) for this empty and I'll admit, pathetically executed, contribution to your page. I’m pleased you didn’t delete my post this time.

“I think it’s pretty common knowledge”? You must be a celebrity… what you always wanted! Alright, I’m quitting for good now, sorry (and I am, sort of) for this empty and I’ll admit, pathetically executed, contribution to your page.

And good on you for not mobilising the hate army that's at your disposal. Thanks for visiting my blog, Ella Hey Sceptic,

I think it’s pretty common knowledge that I dye my hair, so don’t worry about appearing mean-spirited! And good on you for not mobilising the hate army that’s at your disposal.
