Happy Thanksgiving and Shopping 2016

IT'S GOOD TO BE A KID AGAIN

I was in Walmart yesterday during Black Friday (6pm) hours. Needless to say I wasn't there to buy anything but to look and observe. I saw lots of full shopping baskets. It was like adults being kids once again. There was an air of festivity and joy in addition to the frenzy, anticipation, and excitement. Everything was orderly as there were 10x the Walmart staff in security type yellow neon suits, who were placed in every department in the store, and directed people to the doorbusters and kept everything orderly and managed. There were even a few cops and their cars huddled outside the door who left after the initial hour.

I did a bit of shopping online that would fill up such a cart. This bashing of black Friday shoppers is overdone and misdirected. People are going for the sale even if they don't need the items (I've bought some items that I don't need but since it was cheap, why not?).

There's something seriously wrong with people who criticize Black Friday shoppers. Most of the places - 99.9% of them are orderly and uneventful. In fact, the crowd at Walmart was no different in numbers than a busy weekend. And Sears was dead. I did pick up some cheap clothing there. Sears lost a lot of money on my sale :). I feel for Sears.

Let people enjoy their day.

Have a happy and joyous Thanksgiving! And enjoy buying and using those products!

Alexandra Savior : Mystery Girl

SHE WILL HAUNT YOU!

I only post lyrics if they're good and worth visiting as is in this case.

Boy, do I have someone and something special for you... Alexandra Savior.

And here's her spooky, haunting, chilling, storied, revenge seeking, movie sountrackish, song - Mystery Girl.

Lyrics:
In my mind, I've acquired a tangle
I can't undo
I've been thinking about nothing else...
Lately

Does it feel as if somebody's keeping an eye on you?
Peripheral vision
Playing tricks on you

[Pre-Chorus]
Awoooh...
'been meaning to say
I just wanna be where you are
Before you escape

Awoooh...
Hush now
Don't explain
Wound up with a heavy heart
From waiting in the rain

[Chorus]
Pardon me, baby
But who's the mystery girl?

Don't you try to calm me down
Don't you try to calm me down

Pardon me, baby
But who's the mystery girl?
Mystery girl...

[Verse 2]
Was it just you and her?
Did you go in the photo booth?
Was it loud?
Was it hot?
Was it lively enough...
For you?

Is she likely to be there
If I were to show up soon?
The little suspicions
Clinging onto me

[Pre-Chorus]
Awoooh...
'been meaning to say
I just wanna be where you are
Before you escape

Awoooh...
Hush now
Don't explain
Wound up with a heavy heart
From waiting in the rain

[Chorus]
Pardon me, baby
But who's the mystery girl?

Don't you try to calm me down
Don't you try to calm me down

Pardon me, baby
But who's the mystery girl?
Mystery girl...

Awooooh...
Ooohhh...

[Bridge]
I know that we're growing apart
Because your planet precedes yourself
(Awooooh...)
I know that we're growing apart
Because your planet precedes yourself

[Outro]
Don't you try to calm me down!
Don't you try to calm me down!
Don't you try to calm me down!
Don't you try to calm me down!

Awooooh...

Bishop Briggs : The Way I Do

A LIFE OF PASSION

I'm just going to copy and paste what I posted on Facebook:

Passion has always been part of my life. It's about that journey and imagining arriving somewhere better for others and/or yourself. A betterment that's full of direction, hope, wish, vision, and sharing (which unfortunately most people most of the time do not take up). Can you find the passion in this video?

Btw, I saw her at The Fonda Oct 29, 2016. It was a fun show and the music notes, instrument emphasis, (or equalizer?) are different than the ones I hear through my headphones or stereo.

Indeed, you will never know my passion, unless you partake in it.
