A bit about chapter 7

Hi

Mistakes

I just realized that I made a mistake in Chapter 2. Like I said I have a little outilne that I used and copied the wrong dates for Sofia's mother grave. It should read

Anneleigh Allison Madigan

February 6th 1971-November 19th 2001

We are going to find out more about Sofia's mom as time goes on and I guess it wasn't obvious but when Tomas asks her about her Mom in Spirits she gives the information about her mom being mentally ill. I think it's hard for her to use past tense when talking about her.

Other Stuff

I. I know I used Collide twice but after really thinking about it I think the acoustic version sounds a little better.

II. So, in Perspective Tomas has a little section and he is standing at the Paneriai Monument.

III. I'm working on the next few chapter, I think I have the direction down but I'm still trying to figure out the right way to order things. I hope these next few chapters go back to what I originally wanted this story to be. I rather like messing with the whole retrospective thing.

IV. I also found out that Lithuania has a very nice vistiors website here : http://lietuva.lt/en/

V. A little musical tally. I made a master list of songs I've used so far so I don't repeat myself without knowing.

1. Winter by Josh Radin

2. Waiting For My Real Life To Begin by Colin Hay

3. In The Sun By Joseph Author

4. Over My Head by The Fray (

5. Always Midnight by Pat Monohan

6. Closer by Josh Radin

7. Gravity by John Mayer

8. Dreaming with a Broken Heart by John Mayer

9. These boots are made for walking - Jessica Simpsion

10. Stranger by Secondhand Serenade

11. Someday by Nickelback

12. Collide by Howie Day (Including Acoustic)

13. Everybody by The Backstreet Boys

14. Say by John Mayer

15 No Envy No Fear by Josh Radin

16. A song for you by Donny Hathaway

17. When Love Takes over - Kelly Rowland

18 Realize - Colbie Calliat

So, a lot of blue-eyed soul.

That's all, I think.

  2. I only asked about Sofia's mom because I wondered if you wanted us to forget she was dead so, in Chapter 2 we think Sofia is getting all dressed up to go visit a living person. That was what I thought so, that's I found that chapter to be brilliant.

  3. What is blue eyed soul ? Is it because the singers have blue eyes.

  6. I knew there was something more behind that tiny chapter on Tomas I think Lithuania looks interesting, the Hill of Crosses looks interesting.

  7. I think thinking about something like the Ponary Massacre can put anyone's life into perspective.

    It's terrible the things humans can do to each other.

  8. Realize - Colbie Callia

    -- When did you use this song ?

    It would be awesome if you could explain some of the reasoning behind some of these songs.
