been hearing this one over and over, banging my head (as if it helps...) I wasn't born 69 huh, just like the song....(moving on..really hard moving on..)

here's the link for his video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsUSxBNQPhQ&mode=related&search=

Summer Of '69 Lyrics
» Bryan Adams
I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played it till my fingers bled
It was the summer of '69

Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit and Jody got married
I shoulda known we'd never get far
Oh when I look back now
That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice
Ya - I'd always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life

Ain't no use in complainin'
When you got a job to do
Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in
And that's when I met you

Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that you'd wait forever
Oh and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life

Back in the summer of '69

Man we were killin' time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothin' can last forever - forever, no

And now the times are changin'
Look at everything that's come and gone
Sometimes when I play that old six-string
I think about ya wonder what went wrong

Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me it would last forever
Oh the way you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life

if you go and exercise, your body will release endorphins which give you a natural happy high feeling and then you will feel much better. Does this classify me as a nerd yet? Or do I need to put on my lab goggles to do the trick?

Owen,

Whatever happened to you must have been horrible! I recently read about research where being around water naturally cheers you up because of the ions that are thrown into the air from the water...so going to the beach would actually help :)

I'm sorry for being such a nerd :)

Damn... I knew it, you've always hated me! :(

I know what you're talking about. Read your other threads. Its just a phase in life and everyone has been thru that sometime or the other. Time is the best healer.

Tell you what? Once you get off from work, meet up with your best buddy in Doha and just go out to city center or any crowded place. That should keep your mind off it. Otherwise just meet up with your QL buddies, am sure talking and mingling with people will help you.

You don't have to feel wasted cos of someone else who doesn't realize your worth and does not deserve you either. So chill out make merry and learn never to regret in your life. It will help you become a much stronger person!

Cheers

Friends

Sometimes when all hope is gone

and you`re feeling all alone

it`s good if you have someone

a friend that you can lean on

Friends are there for you when you need them

look around you they`re waiting

for you to reach out your hand

Friends are there for you right beside you

let them know what you`re feeling

and they will understand

Sometimes it can change your life

if you take a little time

to be sharing with a friend

true friendship will never and

And it feels good to know there is someone

a friend you know you always can count on

someone to share your joy,sorrow and pain

somebody who will help you make it through the rain

trhough the rain like a chain

trhough the rain like a chain

like a chain

Be strong and never forget you have someone.

*Create your own destiny,fighting against your dark sides,raise your

spirituality.Every day is a new day.A new life.

Keep the faith!*

That's one of my favorite songs of all time. Grown up listening to that one. Still can't get over it.

And yeah neither was I born before 1969! But a great post. Thanks for that!
