Someone Like You – Adele

Someone Like You by Adele

I heard that you’re settled down.
That you found a girl and you’re married now.
I heard that your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things I didn’t give to you.

Old friend why are you so shy?
It ain’t like you to hold back or hide from the lie.

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited.
But I couldn’t stay away, I couldn’t fight it.
I’d hoped you’d see my face and that you’d be reminded
That for me it isn’t over.

Nevermind I’ll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don’t forget me I beg I remember you said:
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead.
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead yeah.

You’d know how the time flies.
Only yesterday was the time of our lives.
We were born and raised in a summery haze.
Bound by the surprise of our glory days.

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn’t stay away I couldn’t fight it.
I’d hoped you’d see my face and that you’d be reminded
That for me it isn’t over yet.

Nevermind I’ll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don’t forget me I beg I remember you said:
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead yeah.

Nothing compares no worries or cares.
Regret’s and mistakes they’re memories made.
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?

Nevermind I’ll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don’t forget me I beg I remembered you said:
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead.

Nevermind I’ll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don’t forget me I beg I remembered you said:
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead.
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead yay yeh yeah.

2011 Vertical Calendar

I’m behind in starting off my blog in 2011. I thought I was going to give myself a new resolution that I’ll blog everyday. Obviously that didn’t happen.

Here’s a calendar I made to look at the year in a glance. I like this look especially since I like to plan out my weekends.

It’s here for you to download. Enjoy.

Excel 2011 Vertical Calendar (Made with Excel 2010).

Updated: I added more raw data on the second sheet for vertical calendars for 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016.

TC Helicon VoiceTone Harmony G-XT Review

0


I’ve been looking around for voice duplicating, harmonizing, pitch correct, etc…I looked into TC Helicon, Digitech’s stuff, and computer based software. Out of all these I picked the TC Helicon device based on features and price. I got a deal (one that I couldn’t refuse) for the TC Helicon VoiceTone. The other option that I was considering was the Digitech Vocalist Live 3.

There are too many features on the VoiceTone. I think that was the main reason I got it other than that it was $50 less than the Vocalist Live 3. I also heard that the Digitech sounded a little bit more robotic than the TC Helicon (according to a sales rep). But here’s the kicker and probably the main reason why I like the VoiceTone, the ability to do firmware upgrades. What does this mean? It means that if TC Helicon has an update, you don’t have to buy a new device. All you have to do it update it using your computer.

After purchasing the VoiceTone, I quickly updated the firmware to also include pitch correct. Sweet stuff.

How does it sound live? The best feature is the voice doubling and harmonizer.

If you have one, let me know how you like it.

2011 New Year Resolutions

0

I was looking back at my 2010 resolutions to see where I was and where I should go this year. To sum it up, (1) use interrobangs, (2) use Illustrator, and (3) use single spaces after periods.

I tried to use interrobangs but that didn’t go so well. Why did I even try?! I went through about 5 tutorials on how to use Illustrator but I just can’t wrap my head around the process.

I was successful in using single spaces after periods. I think it added about 2 words per minute to my typing.

So what’s up for 2011? Nothing. I’m just going to setup goals and keep track on them on a quarterly basis.

Community Service Letter Template

I’ve been asked on occasion by parents if their child can volunteer some hours in the non-profit organization I help out at. I guess these kids need a certain number of hours where they help out the community through volunteering their time.

I always appreciate the help but I don’t always have a task for them to do. That’s a separate issue. For now, I had to generate a letter that confirms what they did.
I looked around for a few and I didn’t like what I saw (the story of my life) so I decided to make my own.

Here it is:


December 5, 2011

Dear Sir or Madam,

This letter confirms that ____________ volunteered time at _______________________.

Date of Service # of Hours Description of Work
12/04/2011 5
  • Cleaned and polished instruments
  • Wound instrument cables
  • Cleaned computers
  • Filed papers
  • Cleaned and organized office

Total Hours: X

If you need further information, please email me at EMAIL ADDRESS.

Sincerely,

YOUR NAME
YOUR TITLE

YOUR WEBSITE


I hope this helps you. It’s usually better if they have a form that you just sign.

Everything Green – Dan Wilson

Everything Green (lyrics)

You gave me the first love
That I ever knew
And I folded open
Like wings on a warm day

No one ever tamed you
You made your own rules
When you ran beside me
Your freedom was mine too

I wish you everything peaceful and everything green
Growing lazy and tangled in your long hair
Everything joyful and everything blue
Water crashing around your waist laughing
When I give to you
Everything peaceful and everything green

When they tried to cage you
You ran even more wild
Dark tide water splashing
Bright snow at the tree line
I saw the aurora
Reflect in your eye
And fear melted in me
Like streams in the spring time

I wish you everything peaceful and everything green
Growing lazy and tangled in your long hair
Everything joyful and everything blue
Water crashing round your waist laughing
When I give to you
Everything peaceful and everything green

Everything peaceful and everything green
I want to bring you all the numberless summers and sunrises
I want sing you all the songs I heard from you
Stories I learned from you
Everything left in the world I can give back to you

You gave me the first love
That I ever knew
And I folded open
Like wings on a warm day

I wish you everything peaceful and everything green
Growing lazy and tangled in your long hair
Everything joyful and everything blue
Water crashing around your waist laughing

I wish you everything peaceful and everything green
Growing lazy and tangled in your long hair
Everything joyful and everything blue
Water crashing around your waist laughing

When I give to you
I’ll give to you
Everything peaceful and everything green
