friday night lights

soundcheck: runaway (bon jovi)

ooh woww..those elec.guitar rifts are so darn mouth-watering..whoooosh..

You were living in another world tryin to get your message through

No one heard a single word you said
They should have seen it in your eyes
What was going around your head

So you sit home alone 'cos there's nothing left that you can do
Theres only pictures hung in the shadows left there to look at you

You know she likes the lights at nights on the neon broadway signs
She don't really mind, it's only love she hoped to find

oh, and am so glad to get fri night lights for just 8 bucks..inevitably brings back memories of hockeycamp and ok..that's another story for another day..but anw i finally have in words the main 'selling point' of the film for me..pity i didn't catch it first time of asking..btw, this is personal..

mike wynchell: " ever feel cursed, coach? like, no matter what, inside your heart, you feel like you gonna lose. like something's hanging over you, following you..? like you can't win? i feel like that all the time. even when things are going good, when we're winning, it's there. when we're losing, it's there"

gary gaines: " well, it took me a long time to realise that, there ain't much difference btwn winning and losing, except for how the outside world treats you. but inside you it's all abt the same. y'know? it really is. fact of the matter is, i believe that, our only curses are the ones that are self-imposed. you kow what i'm saying? like how we all dig our own holes."

pretty lengthy, but powerful all the same..anyhow, past few days of chilling has been different fr the other times of the year..somehow, sometimes, looking back can pop up a totally different perspective than before..


quote of the day: Being perfect is not about that scoreboard out there, it's not about winning. It's about you, and your relationship with yourself, and your family and your friends. Being perfect is about being able to look your friends in the eye, and know that you didn't let them down, because you told them the truth. And that truth is that you did everything that you could, there wasn't one more thing that you could've done. Can you live in that moment? As best as you can, with clear eyes, and love in your heart. Joy in your heart. If you can do that, then you're perfect.-- Gary Gaines, Odessa Permian Panthers Head Coach
