Journal and Video Vault: Metallica -- Seek and Destroy
For aggravations, nothing beats what's gone down over the last two hours. When I gave my chemistry prof permission to look into help, I told him I needed someone from my lecture sections to act as a study buddy, loud and clear. Not only did he do nothing, he effectively implied that he'll be in charge of any study group that comes out...I don't think I need to spell it out here, but I will: That arrangement is NOT GOING TO WORK!
I'm not going on a wild goose chase to find the six people he named who actually had the highest scores but then didn't ask that they locate themselves in the room, because it's already taken too much just to talk to Joanna, who has conceded that she doesn't know the material deep enough to help. I can forgive her because my heart is sniffing out that she is telling the truth. I can't forgive my prof...frankly I'm done trying to ask him for help, which means I'm basically done asking for help on campus period.
I have ScaredandScarred here to help out where she can, but I'm just really pissed off (please excuse the choice of words) that it has had to come down to her. People issues notwithstanding, this has been by far the sortie that was apparently doomed to fail and leave me to my own devices before I could even take off.
Needless to say I'm totally past upset at on my mood meter over this. In fact, I'm just feeling really evil. So here's an appropriately very evil song from legendary metal band Metallica's early days, when they could be scary as well as rock hard.
From the 1982 (not 1983) as shown in the video) album Kill 'em All, here's "Seek and Destroy." Nearly seven minutes of aggressive, riff-and-rage madness. I should mention that this is not being pointed at anybody on DS because everyone here is blameless on this, as per usual...this is simply the mood I am in which is unquestionably very dark. You can follow the lyrics on screen but I'll provide them below anyway:

Alright... We're scanning the scene In the city tonight We're looking for you To start up a fight There is an evil feeling In our brains But it's nothing new You know it drives us insane Running On our way Hiding You will pay Dying One thousand deaths Running On our way Hiding You will pay Dying One thousand deaths Searching....Seek and Destroy Searching...Seek and DESTROY! Searching...Seek and Destroy Searching...Seek and Destroy There is no escape And that's for sure This is the end We won't take any more Say goodbye To the world you live in You've always been taking And now you're giving Running On our way Hiding You will pay Dying One thousand deaths Running On our way Hiding You will pay Dying One thousand deaths Searching...Seek and Destroy Searching...Seek and DESTROY! Searching...Seek and Destroy Searching...Seek and DESTROY! (Bridge and solo, about 1 min 30 sec.) Our brains are on fire With the feeling to kill And it won't go away Until our dreams are fulfilled There is only one thing On our minds Don't try running away Cause you're the one we will find Running On our way Hiding You will pay Dying One thousand deaths Running On our way Hiding You will pay Dying One thousand deaths Searching...Seek and Destroy Searching...Seek and DESTROY! Searching...Seek and Destroy Searching...Seek and Destroy Ah ha ha ha ha...
