27 and no PhD *sob*

Hip hip hurray!

Thank goodness that the writers’ strike in US has been resolved, because one of my favourite show will be back on the small screen on Monday the 17th! Oh yes, it’s the return of The Big Bang Theory and here’s a short clip from past episodes on picking up women, Wolowitz style.

It’s power to the geeks, and I know, while stereotyping scientists is probably not the way to behave, but hey, we all need to be able to laugh at ourselves and have some fun, right?

This has got to be one of the cutest music videos of the year!

Or at least of 2007.

I have just discovered this band recently and could not get enough of this song. It’s light and catchy, yet with lyrics that captured quite what I’m feeling just about right.

(I do find myself listening a lot of late to songs that are light on the instruments and more on unique vocals and simple lyrics - I guess you can call this back to basic for music?)

One two three four

If you feel like a liar
If you’re about to leave me
If you can’t sleep at night

If my bed songs upset you
And if my arms can’t warm you
You just have to try

I am such a coward
I could win an award
You may not believe me
But it would be ok, be ok, be ok

Did you know you’re still crying
Did you know that we’re all dead
Is it paradise?

I’m just waiting for the day
That I will find a letter
On the bedroom door

I am such a coward
I could win an award
You may not believe me
But it would be ok, be ok, be ok, be ok

I have been listening to Yael a lot lately. A lot. Especially today, sitting here by myself, in the boy’s apartment. I’m trying to do some work but my mind strayed from time to time, while this song in particular struck a chord with how I feel.

Not that I understand the song in entirety, given there are parts sung in Hebrew. I wish I do though. A quick google doesn’t bring much luck in locating the lyrics so I guess I need to look for someone who does speak Hebrew for help.

Side note : I do wonder why I am doing this to myself, putting myself in a position where I am emotionally vulnerable. Only where the boy is concerned. Until I find the best way to move on, I’ll try just to cope the best I can.
