Back at university, I was here yesterday for a short amount of time because I had work so this is really my first chance to write in my news page, which was slightly ignored over the holidays. University seems as busy as ever, I have either two or three things due in the next week and a bit, I'm hoping that it's only two otherwise I am going to be royally screwed! Fortunately the geography essay is going to one of the more interesting things that I write about, because I am interested in finding out the answer to my question - "can cities be designed in a sustainable way?" True, it's not going to be that easy because we haven't studied it in class yet, but that's happened in the past and I've managed to get over it.

It seems as though a lot has changed in the last couple of weeks, you know how sometimes you go through a stage in your life that you know you're going to look back upon and say "wow.... that was a really important point in my life", but you can't really comprehend it at the time because you're living that moment. I guess that's some way of thinking about my life at the moment. I also think I have had these moments quite a few times in the last six months - November last year and the start of March this year also seemed to be important moments in my life. I guess this way of looking at things comes from my history education, where you are always searching for "key moments" that led to change, or whatever you happen to be studying.

I'm 20!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yep it was my birthday yesterday so now I am no longer a teenager and, scarily enough, I'm into my 20s. Sheesh, that means that in 10 years time I am going to be 30 and seriously over the hill! LOL! But anyway, I'm now 20 and officially old - although funnily enough it doesn't really make much of a difference, although in the past year, since my 19th birthday, things have changed a great deal so it would be fair to say that my life is quite different to how it was a year ago, so things do change.

I also collected most of my stuff last night (all that we could carry!), so in some ways I've officially moved out of home, even though it has been a pretty gradual process over the past 6 months (much to my girlfriend's disgust).

I got the coolest discman for my birthday (thanks Nats, love you soooo much!) It's a really really thin black aluminium Sony one, and has a cool LCD remote so that you can change songs, and the volume while the discman is in your bag. It's also got cool rechargable batteries, unlike my old discman which tended to run out of battery power after about an hour. I also got a couple of CDs (Goodshirt and Chemical Brothers), a bathrobe, a cricket book and $260.

I've kind of ignored describing my favourite 20 songs this month, I started off with such enthusiasm, but oh well, let's jump straight to number one - I guess this song is in my mind at the moment because we watched City of Angels last night. As you all (hopefully) realise, I am talking about Iris, by the Goo Goo Dolls. I think that I first heard this song in Fahad's car sometime during 7th form as he had the soundtrack for City of Angels, I must admit at the time I thought it was the same song as Name, another really cool song by them which finds itself at number 4 on my alltime favourite songs. Anyway, the lyrics seemed to click with me, and my struggle to find out who I am really am (which continues..... maybe forever... I'm doomed!), as well as the music being really cool. I bought the CD once I realised that Name was a different song, and that the album had some other really cool songs, such as Slide and Black Balloon. I put the CD on program play (as I only liked about 5 songs) and listened to it continuously for a couple of days (I think I was studying for a geography test at the time). So it's a song that has kind of become part of me, and one that I just about know all the words to.

It's the last day of my holidays today, all one week of them! And horribly enough I havne't done any university study througout them, the one day that I really had a good chance to was Anzac Day and the bloody library was shut. Oh well, it's going to be pretty tough over the next six weeks with millions of essays due in, but once I get through that things should get better. I only have three papers next semester, for the first time since my first ever semester at university, plus one of those papers is a giant research project which should be quite interesting - even though research projects aren't usually my thing, it's the kind of assignment that I should get used to if I'm going to do a Masters.

Love you Nats

Well I've finished my essay - at last - and it's now holiday which is an awfully good feeling in some ways, although I know that I should be doing a lot more work than I've actually done in the past couple of days (anything is more than nothing!). But the good news is that I managed to finish my essay (on Monday morning!) and I don't think it was too bad, although I know that I could have done better if I had been able to give it a bit more time. But then again, I reckon I could always do better, but you just kind of have to live with the fact that there is just a limited amount of time in which to do things. It's not too bad I suppose!

I've been doing a bit more work at Maccas in the past couple of days (well I worked yesterday which I don't normally do), because it's the holidays. Once again I've found out why I really had issues with McDonald's last year, and it's risen again. They just seem to always have to understaff you, in attempts to maximise profit (oh an extra $9 an hour is going to make the world of difference!), McDonald's continuously fucks us over by not having enough people on the floor. If I ever had any plans about becoming a manager, the last week is really going to change my mind as it is the shift manager who is most stuffed when it comes to not having enough people. Strange that they never think about the number of customers that they might lose because the restaurant is dirty, because we have no-one to spare to do lobby, or because they all have to wait 4 minutes for every burger, or get burgers that are really old because the one way we can cook enough is to cook far too much, and then use the spare time we create to cook on another station. No matter how McDonald's management sees it, understaffing will always decrease the customer's experience and will probably prove to be the downfall of McDonald's eventually as people look elsewhere.

I've taken my tongue stud out, maybe permanently although I'm not sure (how quickly does it close up?) This is because it was irritating me quite a lot, as I had a really bad habit of playing with it sub-consciously. I wouldn't actually realise that I was playing with it, but the fact that I was annoyed me, as did the whole idea of having something in your mouth 24/7. And no matter what people tell you about getting used to it, you still always notice it in some way or another. My tongue just seems so tiny now!

Now I'm here yet again - although this time I'm being a naughty boy because I am updating my news page in the library - and you're only meant to do research while you're here. But I thought that I would see if anyone had visited my site lately - surprise surprise only me and Nats.

Yay I am on holiday this week, after I have finished my essay today I won't have anything that's due like critically soon. However I know that there's heaps that needs to be done so next week won't really be a holiday. I think the best thing will be that I might actually have some spare time for the first time in ages which will be pretty cool. Anyway, I'd better go finish my essay - ciao!

Strangely enough I'm here once again on a Saturday, I guess it's getting rather usual now for me to be here on days that I never used to be, because of all my assignments. Oh well, c'est la vie. Well the good thing is that I'm not quite so tired as I was yesterday, so I should be able to get a bit more done on my essay than I managed yesterday, I'm also not doing an 11 hour shift tonight (as opposed to yesterday), although yesterday seemed to be the day for long shifts as Nats did about 14 hours altogether.

As of yesterday there had been more visits to my site in April than there were last month, and there's still about 10 days to go this month. Even though I'm pretty sure that the majority of these hits have been me, checking my page after I update it or going back to read my news page from sometime last year. April seems to have gone by pretty quickly so far, it won't be long until I'll have to shift this news page off into another part of my site and start again on my May page. Oh well, in May last year I wrote more than I ever had before in a month so hopefully that's a good sin that a lot happens in my life during May. Unfortunately I have about 8 essays due in May so I don't know if I'll have that much time - after May is June and exams. Man - this year has gone by quickly!

I'm on holiday! Well not really but kind of, as it's going to be a pretty darn busy week. But at least there are no lectures next week and I have a bit more flexibility in my life, although I think that means the library is only open 9-5 each day which would be a bit of a pain in the ass since I'm going to be spending most of my time (that I'm not working) somewhere in the library doing my Environmental Geography essay (and hopefully my Economic Geography research assignment. Somewhere along the line I have another history essay to write (I don't even want to think about it yet!), although it should be reasonably interesting because the essay question is "Who won the Vietnam War?" and it gives me a chance for a little bit of America bashing! Oh the thrill of it!

I'm at university on a Friday - which is rather unusual for me because I don't have any lectures today. But I really need to get going on my essay (which is why I'm updating my news page... go figure) about the impact of colonialism on Southeast Asia. Fortunately this is an essay which I am interested in, and I think that it's going to be a pretty interesting one to write, the problem is that I only have until Monday to write it so it's going to be a struggle.

I had my last lecture while I'm 19 yesterday - next week is holidays (study break!) and then I turn 20 tomorrow week - oh the thrill of it! I will finally be able to go to the Casino and lose all my non-existent money. Maybe on the bright side of things I don't have to spend money at the Casino, I can just check it out although you can pretty much do that from a viewing deck above.

Well I have just about finished my philosophy essay, and I do have quite a bit of time left to write it. The problem is that once that's done I still have my history essay to research and write - and it's due on Monday so it's going to be a pretty long day. Actually it's been a pretty long week you know, I've either had millions of lectures and lots of essays and stuff to do, or I've been working some pretty long hours. Or both! Well hopefully I'll be able to save up a bit of money over the next couple of weeks so that I will be able to cut down my hours to just a couple of days a week - which should hopefully make things a little bit easier.

It was really cool coming into town this morning because of the fog over the harbour. Before we got on the harbour bridge you could see the harbour, then a strip of fog and then just the top of the sky tower appearing above the fog. It was a pretty awesome sight - one of those times that you wish you had a camera on you so that you could capture it. Once we got on the harbour bridge it was a bit like being in another world because you couldn't see anything except white haze on both sides of the bridge. Funnily enough it had pretty much cleared away in the city and was only over the harbour. Welcome to winter!

I've got just under three hours to try and write my philosophy essay so this news entry will be pretty short. Well if the worst comes to the worst I have tomorrow morning to finish it off, but that's definately not my plan because I have another essay to do that's due by Monday. I'm not panicking (yet), which may or may not be a good thing. It depends on how the essay turns out I suppose.

I've got bloody work this evening, well I guess it isn't usually that bad so I shouldn't be complaining too much. The schedules for next week might be up, and because I'm on holiday hopefully they've given me some day shifts (and not any more work.... because I need the time off university to do the stack of essays I have.) Anyway, I'd better get on with my essay - ciao!

So it's back to university, and two days left before I have to hand in my Philosophy Essay. It would be really good if I can finish that tonight so that I can get started on my History essay which is due in on Monday now (thank you thank you thank you Mr. Lecturer!). Hopefully that should be an attainable target, because I do have some time today after all my lectures, as well as a couple of hours now once I've finished this news entry.

I guess the most important step in the history of my webpage, apart from setting it up in the first place, was my decision to add a news page. Originally this idea started because a chat friend I knew (x_chicky_x) had a news page on her site, and it was a really interesting read. So I decided that I might try to create something reasonably similar, but with my own kind of twist to it. At first the entries were pretty short - about one line for each little thing that I was saying pretty similar to how she had done her page, but then as time progressed and I wanted things to be a bit different I began to lengthen my entries. Then I did a Philosophy paper, and my news page somehow became my Philosophy page even though I did have a Philosophy page I just could never be bothered updating it (it's still there, un-updated for the past year just about). There have been times when my news page has been horribly neglected - such as in December, January and February most recently but I knew that I would eventually get back to it once I was at university and had a few things I wanted to talk about as well as a way for me to document my life so that I can look back on it at some stage in the future and have a really good read. Lately it's become a way for me to talk about my favourite songs of all time, and a way for me to do exactly what I'm doing now, and tell you all about the history of my webpage as it stands now.

When I look towards the future of this webpage, just as when I look towards the future of my life I really don't have a clue what's going to happen. Maybe in a month I'll get completely sick and tired of writing a news page, think that there's absolutely no point whatsoever because 1)Hardly anyone except for me and Nats ever reads this page, and 2)It's not really a diary because it's public. Oh well, I've been on a role in the last couple of months as I've made more entries and made longer entries than ever before so there's no reason to think that negatively - you just never know though!

It's been about four days since I last made an entry into my news page - how shocking! LOL! Well it was the weekend and I thought that I would have time at some stage to make an entry, but I was pretty busy, working 10 hours on Friday, looking after Sarah (and making four one hour bus rides) on Saturday and then coming to university yesterday (university on a Sunday.... how shocking!), although I was going to update my page then but the HSB labs were locked because of some reason. It's something about the university, they lock absolutely everywhere on the weekend that's normally open apart from the library and a few computer labs. You can even get locked in pretty easily as I found out yesterday.

Well yesterday I came into university because I really had to get on with my essay research for Philosophy, so I headed towards the Short Loan Collection which is in the Science Library. So anyway, I see some people coming out of one of the entrances to the Science Block, so before the door shuts I walk into the Science Block, go up the stairs towards the library - unfortunately the door leading along the corridor is locked so I figure that either the Short Loan Collection is shut (which is a big BUGGER!) or I'll have to go in the other entrance. But the problem is that the other door out is locked, and even the door that I came in is locked so about this time I'm trying not to panic, and trying not to think about spending the night locked in the Maths and Physics building. So I'm smart, I call Directory on my cellphone so that they can put me through to university security who will be able to come and rescue me. Problem is that because my cellphone is broken and a piece of shit there is absolutely no reception whatsoever so the two times that I get through to Directory the cellphone dies before I can get the number. So I figure that there's no way I staying here forever and I'm going to have to do something about this - so my solution is to go down to the least conspicuous entrance, break open the emergency door release thing (which is like those fire alarms - break glass and switch down), and I'm finally out. Bit of a pity that I cut my hand in about 5 places by breaking the glass - but I wasn't too worried because the idea of spending the night in that building was not very good. The irony of the situation was that Short Loan Collection was open, and that if I had just gone to the other door in the first place I wouldn't have had to worry about all that.

I had work last night, bloody McChicken day again making millions of them. It wasn't too bad you know, becuase we actually had enough people in the kitchen for once (at least for most of the time). However I'm pretty sure that I must have made many hundreds of them so I'm rather sick of the sight of McChicken burgers.

I've decided to do my Philosophy essay first - it's due in a week's time and it doesn't look like it's going to take that long to do because it's a relatively simple question about Behaviourism. I just have to have a really good grasp on Behaviourism, which unfortunately I don't think I have at the moment. It's a rather interesting school of thought, that mental processes do not cause physical processes, but that all feeling pain (or some other example) is in fact, is the behavioural response to it. See I thought that it might have been fairly true at first because sometimes if I'm not sure how I'm feeling or what's going on inside of my head I will look towards my behaviour as an explanation. The problem is that it seems fairly obvious that the process of reacting to something or showing a certain behaviour is the outcome of an inner mental process, which is in complete conflict with Behaviourism. Oh well, hopefully I'll have it pretty much sussed over the next few days so that I can write a good 1500 word essay explaining it, as well as offering arguments for and against this slightly strange topic. It's just a pain that I am unable to go to the tutorials because they all clash with lectures of mine - especially in a subject such as Philosophy tutorials are such a key part of the course.

My webpage has nearly been up and running for 2 years. Actually I'm not quite sure when I started it, although I'm sure that somewhere in Angelfire it would show up - I remember ages ago I had another webpage... I think that it's still alive somewhere on the web although it's a rather pathetic attempt which I stuffed up because I converted the main page into advanced editor thinking that there would be some really interesting advanced features available, only to find that in advanced editor you need to know HTML (which I didn't) and that all they give you is a blank box in which to type your code. But once I figured out that site was a bit too far gone, and that it would actually be easier to just create a whole new webpage I thought that I would give it another go. It helped that I now had regular internet access from university, plus I was beginning to get the hang of actually how to use computers and how the internet worked (I even had an e-mail address by then!) so it made sense for me to make an impression upon the world wide web. Unfortunately I still can't remember how my page exactly got started, I do recall putting the "tv" in the web-address because I thought out of all the two letter combinations it was the one that would be most easy to remember. I also know that a history page which I put a couple of essays onto (which grew and grew and grew) as well as a cricket page (which shrunk and shrunk and shrunk) also found their way onto my webpage. At one stage I was going to write an entire book about the history of cricket online, but then that idea got shelved (ha ha ha) because university was getting busier and I just really couldn't be bothered. At first my layout was pretty simple, the main page turned into a bit of a Philosophy page later on, whereas it had been basically just a "hi, my name is..." page before that.

Around the end of 2000 I began to take more interest in my webpage - I had added an Anna Kournikova pictures page (which has now been removed.... sorry guys), and actually started looking around the net to figure out this weird stuff known as HTML, through chat friends who knew a little bit more about the internet than I did (ie. Dust Bunnie and Bob the Barefoot Swagman), I was directed to some pretty useful websites such as Lissa Explains which tought be how to make images into links and how to make tables as well as some pretty neat javascripts. I finally got a decent counter going on my site in early 2001, and added my Extreme Tracker (the really cool programme which has the funny blue box at the bottom of the page) so I could see who was going to my site, and how many people were actually going there. I also found out that about 90% of the visits to my site were by me, becuase of my perfectionism whenever I made an upgrade I would always check it, change something, check it again and so on.... luckily a bit of advertising in chat (it's amazing how many people will click on a link if you say you have Anna Kournikova pictures on your page) managed to get a few more people looking at my site than just me. I'll continue tomorrow about the history of my webpage..... there's still a long way to go.

It's pretty scary, I'm turning 20 in just over two weeks. It makes me feel rather old you know, I'm no longer going to be a teenager, the last little notion of being a child only really has a year to go before I'm 21 and traditionally an adult. It's been an interesting year, my 20th (see when you're 19 it's actually your 20th year alive), I guess I have achieved a lot this year, and I've grown up a hell of a lot. When I read my news page from about this time last year I can see that I've come a long way. It hasn't been easy, and it hasn't always been fun (although there have been a lot of good times), but I've got there (sort of). It's just a bit scary looking at my next year. By this time next year I would have finished my degree (I'm not going to fail any papers.... well I'd better not!), and I'll be working fulltime unless something really strange pops up like a massive scholarship grant that requires me to do my Masters next year - but the likeliness of that......

9 days left for my essays and sadly I can't say that I've done that much since yesterday, luckily it looks as though my history one will actually be due on the Monday and not the Friday which could give me the weekend to do it, but I was planning on doing that one before I do my philosophy essay anyway because I think that the history one will take longer and therefore I should get it out of the way first. Maybe I should do the Philosophy one first ..... arrrrrgggghhhh... who knows.

An early start today - I was up at 6am which kinda sucked since I didn't get to sleep until about midnight. But I guess I will have to make it up tonight with an early night's sleep. And I had a pretty relaxing morning reading the paper and catching up with a bit of university work at Starbucks.

I've got to write two essays by the 19th of April - that's about 10 days away now I think. Hmmmm...... I hope that I have enough time to write them, I should be OK, so long as I get started on them right now, and hopefully the books are going to be available for me at the library. I had to pay off a $92 library fine the other day (bloody non-refundable lost book processing fees!), so at least now I can access the short loan collections. I should try to get some work done this weekend at well, but it's always so tempting to have the weekend off and do nothing after such busy and stressful weeks.

It looks like I've kind of given up on explaining why my top 20 songs are on that particular list. In some ways the reasons are always pretty similar, some songs just seem to click with me as they do with anyone. Music is such a matter of taste it's incredibly difficult to judge what it "good" and what is "bad" music from an objective point of view - maybe a song that people from various different music tastes can enjoy is truly a really "good" song. Who knows, but it's definately more subjective than judging what's a good or bad movie.

It's quite scary to think that I've been working at McDonald's for nearly two and a half years. Most people seem to only last a few months, and yet here I am still going strong and possibly enjoying (putting up with?) the job better than ever. I know that last year I wrote quite a few entries into here complaining about how terrible work was, and that it was such a destructive force upon my life. It's interesting how things have changed, obviously the biggest change has been the fact that I have shifted stores twice, and come across a whole new bunch of people who have accepted me for who I am now, and not who I was when I was just learning how to do things. As a result I have generally been given more respect and more responsibility, which has made the job a bit more attractive to me. Maybe I've just learned to deal with it, and the fact that it's not so bad anymore is just the result of me growing up a bit and realising that things can't be great all the time and learning to deal with it, and making the most out of the current situation is a really good idea. It's probably a mixture of all these elements, but the good thing now is that I don't seem to be checking my watch every five minutes to see how long I have left in my shift - and that if I have work it's not such a horrible daunting prospect.

Another Monday and I'm back at university - funnily enough it seems like Monday morning and it's actually almost 3:30 in the afternoon - I guess I slept in a little bit this morning. But anyway, it seems like quite a long time since I was at university, last week was only a couple of days long and I only had 2 lectures in the whole week so it has been a while since I had a full length week. This week it going to be rather busy as I have a 2,500 word history essay to write - and they always seem to take ages and ages to research because you have to read millions and millions of books if you want to get a good mark.

I have work tonight - back at Queen St. McDonald's which will be rather busy, but hopefully a bit more interesting than Atrium. I also hope that they've paid me my extra pay for working on Easter Monday - McDonald's have a stupid policy that you have to work the three previous days of the week to be eligible for a day-off-in-lieu on a public holiday, and I asked for my extra pay to be paid out straight away (as in I need money now!), so I hope that it's gone through. Chances are it hasn't so I won't be waiting with baited breath.

I worked at my 6th McDonald's yesterdy, and it was mostdefinately the most quiet and boring store of the lot yet. Atrium. Anyway it was OK because it meant that I could have a pretty cruisy shift compared to the continual busyness of Queen St,. but it meant that I had to do close which kinda sucked.

Nats is feeling a little bit better today, which is a good thing, we went to the doctor yesterday and hopefully that's made a difference.

On Thursday I played around with my top 20 songs, and actually ranked them from 1-20 which means that I'm not quite sure where I am up to - I think that it's Dario G - Sunchyme. I first saw this song on MTV (yeah way back in the days when we used to get UK MTV), it had a weird video clip with people dressed up and painted as animals. Funnily enough I can't really say that I particularly liked the song at first, although it did grow on me as it was on TV quite a lot (or maybe I just watched a lot of MTV). Then it kind of disappeared for ages and ages until I heard it on the radio one day and recorded it onto a tape. Then at the start of last year, when I was downloading songs off the net I just couldn't think of what song this was, I had no idea about it's name or who ws the artist - I would describe the video clip in detail to people in chat although sometimes they'd click other times it would be "huh?" Finally, via James and his sister I managed to figure out that it was Sunchyme by Dario G, I even think that I thanked him in the VERY early days of this news page. So I downloaded it, and listened to it many many times and it's just become one of my favourite songs of all time - I don't think that I've ever hit "next" when it came up on a playlist.

Yay! I've finished my first essay for the year! Now I only have about 20 t0 go and I'll have my BA.... Ok maybe that's not the best way to look at it, but at least I've made a start on things. I think that it's a pretty reasonable essay, not perfect but when do you ever write the perfect essay?

My poor Nats is sick, which is rather bad timing considering work and the kids' party on the weekend. But as I have said before, is there ever a good time to get sick? It either comes on top of everything else that's going wrong or it stuffs things up when they're all going well.

I'm up to explaining why "One More Time" by Daft Punk is on my list of favourite songs. Well about the first time I heard this song was walking back up from Darling Harbour in Sydney in January last year after watching a pretty amazing display of fireworks on Australia Day (they just seem to know how to do fireworks best there!) Anyway, as I was walking back up to the Town Hall railway station I passed some big club place that was playing "One More Time" by Daft Punk, they were pumping it out for sure and the whole building seemed to be going off! Eventually I managed to figure out what the song was, and downloaded about three different versions of it when I got back to New Zealand. Although I would have to admit that I'm slightly sick of it because it is rather repetitive, it's still a pretty cool song. And a good one for clubbing! (Not that I ever go clubbing, but that's beside the point, I don't know whether it's really me...)

See the slightly annoying thing about making a list of your 20 favourite songs of all time is that you go to work the next day and they play a song (namely Falls Apart by Sugar Ray) which just has to be on that list. Not that I know which song I'm going to have to remove in order to put it there - I be that there are heaps of songs over the next while which I am going to have to add, and then play around with them in order to get my top 20 songs. I think that the song it could possibly take over from is Pacifier by Shihad although that's pretty harsh considering when I made a CD for Pt. Chev McDonald's and put Pacifier on it, that was the song which I looked most forward to out of all the songs on the CD.

Anyway, as I said yesterday I would explain each and every song that I have on my list - so I'd better start with "Run" by Collective Soul. Well the interesting thing about this song is that I recognised it at some stage - I can't exactly remember why or how I heard it, but I know that I recognised "December" (also by Collective Soul), then downloaded both these songs and really liked "Run". When Nats heard it for the first time she wondered what it was, and began to really like the song as well, so it kind of went from there. I don't think I've ever hit "next" when this song has popped up on a playlist, and it's also a song that I'm very much not sick of.

Worked for the first time at Quenn St. on a Tuesday today, as everyone who lives in New Zealand will probably be well aware of, that meant it was Big Mac day at McDonald's - and we made billions of them! Luckily we had enough people in the kitchen to cook them all, and there wasn't really any stage where we had to panic because with 3 people almost completely devoted to making one kind of burger it's pretty easy to pump them out.

I have had 5 days in a row off university now, and it does seem like quite a while since I last had a lecture, last Thursday even so it will be a pretty short week for me, unfortunately I have an essay due on Thursday which I haven't actually finished yet (I've written a bit of it!) so that means that tomorrow's going to be a pretty busy day for me!

Happy April Fools day everyone! Although I haven't though of a good trick today to play on anyone, well hopefully something intersting will come to mind at some stage. Hope that you've all had a happy and safe Easter - and eaten all your Easter eggs with great delight! Mmmmmmmmm.... chocolate!

I thought that I would list my 20 favourite songs of all time - I made a list of them in order from 1 to 20 a while ago but lost it. So I decided to try to put them in some kind of order - it's obvious that I prefer number 1 to number 20, but bloody hard differentiating between the ones in between so who knows, this might change rather frequently.
1)Goo Goo Dolls - Iris
2)Dario G - Sunchyme
3)Moby - Porcelain
4)Goo Goo Dolls - Name
5)Filter - Take My Picture
6)Five For Fighting - Superman
7)The Feelers - Venus
8)U2 - With or Without You
9)Collective Soul - Run
10)David Gray - Please Forgive Me
11)Lifehouse - Breathing
12)UB40 - Can't Help Falling In Love
13)Eve 6 - Here's To The Night
14)Dido - Here With Me
15)Rollergirl - Luv U More
16)Daft Punk - One More Time
17)Rednex - Cotton Eyed Joe
18)The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony
19)Shihad - Pacifier
20)Manic Street Preachers - If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next

Now with these songs, they aren't exactly my 20 favourite songs at the moment, in fact I'm quite sick of a few of them as I have heard them about 20 million times. However some you can never hear too many times, and these are the songs over the past few years which I have either really enjoyed listening to, or have made me feel something that only music can do. When I get around to it I'll try to explain why each and every song is on the list, and what they mean to me, and what I think about each time I hear that particular song. Maybe that's a mission for the next 20 days - do a song a day.
