2010: the year in review

2010,

How have you have passed already? After my return from Spain last fall, I have been passed by you.  There was happines, sadness, soul searching and good old relaxing.  There was high notes and low notes.  There were proverbial touchdowns and ints and fumbles.

However, I have grown as a person and after all, that is the most important take away from this year.  I can remember albums whcih have shaped my life this year.  The most important one, Forget and Now Slow Down by Relient K.  This album I got for 2.99 on amazon towards the end of my past spring sem.  I thought nothing of it and just kept listening to other music.  Enter the summer and after a major event in my life, I turned to this album for two whole weeks of listening.  I was encouraged by this album.  i suggest this album to anyone who is moving on  from a hard time in their life.  It was medicine for me (proverbial).

The one song that hit me the most was the song "Over It". The lyrics are located below
  I'll admit to who I am
The day I come to understand
I haven't got a clue
Been searching for a few years now

Well if I don't repeat myself
Then I'll change into someone else
Well I don't quite know who
Been searching for a few years now

I'm over it
Yeah behind me now
I'm just over it
Over it
Yeah I'm finding out
I'm just over it
No I don't know what's over just yet
But I won't go slow and time can let the mind forget
Don't tell me you don't know
Already
(Don't tell me you let go
Already)

I'll protect your universe
Or make a mess to make it worse
Time will only tell
You and no one else so

You say you made up your mind and you've finally decided
But those that helped you choose
Haven't the slightest clue as to the magnitude of what you're about to lose

I'm guarded and therefore I can endure
A little bit more
Just a little bit more
Than some people would
If I'm not misunderstood
It's still an attempt to be egoless while self-assured
If I'm still unsure that I'm pretty sure
That I am pretty good
God you know I'm good and over it


Colin
