victorious in every game but love

Slightly better. Finished doing all my linen last night after I got in, and vacuumed my room. I think I should do it more often - clean sheets are very very nice to burrow into at night ;) Was up early today as I had badminton practice from 11.30 - 2.30. Even more pleasing to hear that a social has been planned for Wednesday, involving a pub called The Bourbon and the ice-skating rink. Which is actually quite hazardous come to think of it ... oh well. I was planning on going back down south on Weds night but I guess it can wait till Thurs morning now. Badminton was great .. really gratifying (as a club captain) to see such a strong turnout, plus I won every game I played today :) And I've just finished a humongous fry up too. Nothing else compares ;)

Because I am bored, and because it is one hell of a song, I have decided to faithfully reprint the lyrics to U2's With or Without You here.

Verse 1

See the storm set in your eyes,

See the thorn twist in your side,

I wait for you.

Slight of hand and twist of fate,

On a bed of nails she makes me wait,

And I wait without you,

With or without you,

With or without you.

Verse 2

Through the storm we reach the shore,

You gave it all but I want more,

And I'm waiting for you,

With or without you,

With or without you,

I can't live with or without you.

Chorus

And you give yourself away,

And you give yourself away,

And you give, and you give,

And you give yourself away

Verse 3

My hands are tired,

The body bruise she got me with,

Nothing to win and nothing left to lose

Chorus

And you give yourself away,

And you give yourself away,

And you give, and you give,

And you give yourself away,

With or without you,

With or without you, oh,

I can't live with or without you,

Oh ... oh ... oh ...,

With or without you,

With or without you, oh,

I can't live

With or without you,

With or without you

Et tu, Brute! (Caesar)
