liner notes

My name's Melanie. I just turned 17 and while it seems like I should be excited, I'm not. Nothing has changed for me. I'm still the same girl: intensely spiritual, impulsive yet rational, and caring.

I don't find myself to be perfect or altogether special. I'm just another human being with things to say and a desire to be understood.

But on to mix tapes. I make mixes when I'm happy or sad. When I have something else to do or nothing better to do at all. I make mixes for friends and lovers, enemies and strangers.

But mostly, I make them for myself. So instead of dealing with the people around me, I can plug in and let go.

The Friday the 13th Badge I
Friday the 13th taught us all the heartwarming lesson that if you are a camp counselor, it's probably not in your best interest to let that (potentially mentally retarded [see wikipedia]) kid swim alone while you are trying to get a piece of ass.

To Imagine Is Everything
1486 points (Level 2) · 7/18/07 4:55pm
I made this mix tape for a friend of mine. He's truely a great individual and sometimes, I wish there was something more to the relationship we have, but alas there is not. I don't mean in a romantic way, I just wish I understood him better. That we were more than casual aquaintances. At the moment he's on a missions trip for his church so I've taken this time to finalize everything. Anyway, this mix took me about a week to finalize and the flow is so FUN! It's mellow by my standards but I really like it and I hope he does too.

And to make sure he doesn't skip certain songs, I'm not giving him the track listing. Tricky huh? I might just refer him to this site.


Also, there's no theme.

Wherever you are, I hope you're still listening

This mixtape is basically about the stages we move through when we lose someone important to us by death or by choice: denial, grief, anger, and acceptance.

I came up with the idea for it because lately I've been dealing with the loss of a best friend (she wanted out of the friendship) and I thought a mixtape would be a therapeutic way of dealing with it. I hope it does the same for you.

This is my first mixtape.

Wicked! I've never as much as showed up in school with hangovers, so I think what you did was plain wicked, Mel. ;)

Also, are you participating in the Time Travel contest?? That way you would have to be more online!

My last tag should have said, 'OK, I'll get it, then. Facebook, I mean.' and not, 'OK, I'll get it, then. For Facebook, I mean.' I still don't know what reunion you're talking about. And also, I can't sign up, because my school is not on the list, so I have to wait for them to send me an e-mail that confirms that they have added it to their list.

Wow. So you get whiter and whiter all the time? Is that what happened to Michael Jackson? My English teacher used to say that, but then we found out she was THE biggest MJ fan, and so we started to doubt her a little, because there were so many other rumours, involving surgery and whatnot.

What reunion is this?

OK, I'll get it, then. For Facebook, I mean.

I wish I still worked at a libraby, or a record store. That would be awesome. But I guess work is work, in the end you just get paid, and that's the only reason you stick with it. Good luck on the job hunt.

I don't know. Just a silly play on words, cause your name is Melanie, and I thought of the two Spice Grrls for some reason, and then I couldn't decide whether to go with Sporty or Scary, and so I divided them with a slash. I escape most conflicts in real life as well.

Clevarh.
A disease that kills your pigment? Ouch, that sounds seriously unpleasant!!

I'm fine, thanks. Got myself into another week of work, but tomorrow I'm going to the movies, so it's good. Plus I've made lotsa swell mixes for (the rest of) the Summer. Otherwise I'm pretty bored. I stay inside and order DVD's and other stuff all day long.

Hey, I don't think it's bad that I don't know the artists. I mean, yeah, I think it's too bad for me, but I think it's cool that you don't just listen to what most people also listens too.

Why do you think you don't have a chance with him? He asked you to make him a mix, isn't that indicating something? You're SO right - having fun making a mix is what counts. :)

Haha, I know! It's raining badges lately.

Hmm, I don't think it has the least thing to do with popularity - it's just luck. I'm just lucky!! Not in real life of course, but I just accidently unleash those badges from whereever they're hidden.

YOU DID IT? OH MY GAAAWD, I'M GOING TO CHECK IT OUT RIGHTNOW.

Oh, you hate shopping too? I like you so much!

Well, it sounded like a fun day altogether, I must say. :) I usually stay at home and sulk as well. Actually my birthdays are more dull than other what-to-do days. Weird, I'm telling you. But luckily, for the past two years, I've been given books as presents, so I try not to sulk and instead swallow the books in one day, so it feels like a nice birthday after all.

Any day now then, right? Your next mixtape, I mean ;)

Everything comes out Australian on this site, it appears to me. And that's just super weird, haha. Well, you got some tracks I should definitely listen to or anything or should I just try and find some random tracks by myself? Cause I would love to check them out. :) How was the concert...yesterday?

(Rachael, I bet you probably know all of that Hillsong thing... It's Australian, I just found out. Oi!).
