international superhits


"Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)" - Green Day
Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial
For what it's worth it was worth all the while

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

One of my favourite songs of all time.

This song always reminds me of Prom, which is weird because it was NEVER played during my Prom, though I cannot understand why. Its such a Prom song.
But I guess the conservative administration wouldn't have allowed it in the first place - anything with the words 'Good Riddance' in it is probably too scandalous for the HCJC administration.
I did however use this song as the foundation for my entry about Prom two years ago. I thought it was one of my best entries ever. Unfortunately, Diary-x promptly died and never came back again and thus, that entry is now lost forever in time. Still, this song always brings back memories of my JC life - it was fun, it was tiring, I really had the time of my life.


A big thank you to Lileng for buying Green Day's "International Superhits" for my birthday! I've been wanting to get this album for ages. I love the album, and it has lots of Green Day's older hits like 'Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)', 'Minority', 'Walking Contradiction', 'When I Walk Around', 'Warning' - just to name a few.
I love the cover too. Very retro. In fact, its the inspiration for the Med DnD poster that I'm still trying to complete in time for Samantha (dateline's this coming Wednesday!). I hope the poster turns out nice, so far its uncoloured and waiting for me to scan into the computer for colouring.
Feeling a bit stressed about it, cause I don't want it to be rubbish really, but when it comes to posters and hand drawn artwork, the finished effect is often very different from what you may initially intent it to be, so I guess we'll see how it goes.
