1) The "fishing" text.
This text is normally along the lines of: "So wot u up 2 later?" or "U out tonight?", or simply "Oceana?"Despite appearing innocent at first, its intentions are far from it. Generally sent at around 3am, this should be translated as:"Im drunk, horny and haven't pulled tonight. Where is my back up shag? “(Typical success rate is around 10%.)The main determinates of a successful "fishing" text are the amount of alcohol in the person receiving the text, how filthy/desperate they are, and your marginal propensity to fall asleep whilst texting.A "fishing" text is at its worst when sent to an ex. Just don’t do it! Remove his/her number from your phone IMMEDIATELY, or try simply putting "No" after/before her name in your phone book as a gentle reminder to avoid embarrassing yourself.
2) Predictive “Cock-ups”
The predicative text software loaded onto nearly all mobile phones, whilst useful during the day, can wreak havoc whilst texting under the influence of alcohol.Some favourites:"Sorry still outside the club. Fucking steve." (queue)"wish I was inside your gorgeous aunt right now" (c*nt)“Ready and raping to go!” (raring)The local pub in town is called the crown. So when my mate, Dave, asked a particularly nice female if she wanted to meet up:''fancy gettin food in the crown?''It was inevitably written as:''fancy gettin done in the brown?''"Can't wait to be licking your puppy” (pussy)"Fancy a dual?" (f*ck)Fortunately, the girl receiving saw the funny side and sent the following reply:"Andy, unfortunately I hav no desire 2 don full body armour, a sword, and a shield, grab my horse and ride over to urs for a "dual". Oh, and I certainly dont want sex with u!""It's ok, no hurry, I've got aids" (ages)“Gassy new year!!!" (happy)"come on over... I have wind" (wine)My friend Steve text me when we were planning a trip to Alton Towers:“I can't wait to have a go on all the sheep!” (rides)“Put your coal into my puppy” (cock & pussy)I asked my mate if he had any plans one evening quite late:"Wife open, definitely not sleeping!" Was his reply! (wide)Whilst preparing for a play:“Have you got the rapist ready yet” (script)“Spank me when u get here” (Prank)
3) The "friend locator" text
One of the only types of text to be sent without sexual motivation. Picture the following situation: You've just met some chick and your mates have fucked off to leave you to it. At which point she realises your chat stinks and she makes an excuse to go find her friends. You are left alone to fend for yourself. You reach for your mobile phone and attempt to call your friends several times before realising they will not be able to hear their mobiles ring. Your solution is to send the following message:"Wher u? Ho on dancefloor" Or some other incomprehensible crap.This situation is exasperated when you realise you have fuck all signal and must accept the fact u will be paying for the entire taxi fare home. Or, alternatively, play that game outside the club where you go up to someone you vaguely recognise, asking "Clapham anyone?”
4) "Declarations of undying love"
No doubt the most embarrassing of the drunken texts. Do you recognise any of the following?"You are the most beautiful girl in the world!" - Ergh! "I love u!""Love you millions"“If I could re-arrange the alphabet, I’d put u and I together”"Missing you!" / "I miss you so much!" It should be noted that for no apparent reason the number of kisses on the end of the text increases to some exponential figure with every succeeding love text x x x x x x x x x x x x xNaturally, of course, there is nothing wrong with declarations of undying love but they are best steered away from if you are unlikely to remember them when you wake in the morning with a dry tongue and a throbbing headache. Because I promise you that YOU may have forgotten what you sent the night before but SHE / HE won’t and she will have the evidence in her inbox
5) "Family texts"
Doesn’t happen that often, but to those few who accidentally text their parents or other family members, it can be disastrous.Relatives most likely to receive messages are those who are dangerously close to “fitties” in the phone book. For example: "Dad" will be located near "Dave" or “Danni” alphabetically.My favourites:"Im c*nted where are you?" (sent by a friend to their mother. They didn’t speak for a week or so)"U wanna stay at mine tonite?" (ooh dear) And the worst case...Text sex!!!"Ill start at ur nipples and lick my way south until im licking and sucking ur wet... (you go)"The above isn't actually an urban myth and genuinely did happen to my cousin. The receiving dad would not let it go lightly and it became his standard party trick to tell in front of other relatives at Christmases and birthdays! You have been warned!
6) "Shit, fuck & bollocks text!"
The name is derived from the noise you make after sending it!It typically occurs when you are writing a text that bitches about someone or reveals that you fancy someone. Their name sticks in your head when you're about to send to it... and BANG! The wrong person gets the very message of which they are the subject.Of course, this can have advantages, For example, you can create a double bluff. Want to make your ex-girlfriend jealous? Easy, send a message to her that was meant for your fictional new hot lover. For the cheaters among us, this type of text is can wreak havoc. I seem to recall breaking up after incorrectly sending my girlfriend at the time this message:“Thanks for last night, it was awesome, u free Friday?”Despite my claims that the evidence was purely circumstantial, she soon showed me the door
7) Singing Texts
Ever caught yourself texting song lyrics? Shocking really isn't it!
8) "The One Eyed Text"
By 1am focusing has become difficult, darn right impossible in fact. But far from deterred, your alcohol fuelled brain discovers you can remain focused on the message provided you close one eye.
9) Pre-lash booty check texts
A sister to the "fishing text", the pre-lash booty text is sent in between the hours of 9pm and midnight generally whilst pre-lashing. The innocent "You out tonight?" sent to someone you fancy is again far from it. It should be translated as, "Just checking your out in case I need to find u for some sex later."A gentleman receiving such a text will make it their mission to ensure they end up in the same club as the sender, bullying his mates into going to that club. Dates before mates is poor form in my book!I pre-warn any girls thinking of sending this text! Lets be honest, you sound desperate!
10)The "reminder" text
Normally sent just after 2am to yourself. The "reminder" text is just that. You have realised just how pissed you are and that in the morning you will remember nothing. You therefore send yourself reminders for the morning.Examples:"Say sorry to Kelly" "U lent Boycey £40""Key is under bin"
11) The "I cant remember her name phonebook addition".
Strictly speaking, this is not a text message. However, I still felt it needed to be included. The "I cant remember her name phonebook addition" occurs at a highly intoxicated moment in the evening when you cant remember the name of the person you've just spent the last few hours talking with / just woken up next to! To spare yourself the embarrassment of asking "What’s your name again?", you decide to hand them your phone instead and get them to type it in!!! Works a charm, but they normally figure out why you're doing it!!!!
Drunken text messages can happen to anyone, although admittedly some more than others! Will we ever learn? I hope not!

凤凰花开的路口
又到凤凰花朵开放的时候
想起某个好久不见老朋友
记忆跟着感觉慢慢变鲜活
染红的山坡道别的路口
青春带走了什么留下了什么
剩一片感动在心窝
也许值得纪念的事情不多
至少还有这段回忆够深刻
是否远方的你有同样感受
成长的坎坷分享的片刻
当我又再次唱起你写下的歌
仿佛又回到那时候
几度花开花落有时快乐有时落寞
很欣慰生命某段时刻曾一起度过
时光的河入海流终于我们分头走
没有哪个港口是永远的停留
脑海之中有一个凤凰花开的路口
有我最珍惜的朋友
想起某个好久不见老朋友
记忆跟着感觉慢慢变鲜活
染红的山坡道别的路口
青春带走了什么留下了什么
剩一片感动在心窝
也许值得纪念的事情不多
至少还有这段回忆够深刻
是否远方的你有同样感受
成长的坎坷分享的片刻
当我又再次唱起你写下的歌
仿佛又回到那时候
几度花开花落有时快乐有时落寞
很欣慰生命某段时刻曾一起度过
时光的河入海流终于我们分头走
没有哪个港口是永远的停留
脑海之中有一个凤凰花开的路口
有我最珍惜的朋友

Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of ....
And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if our way should falter
Along the stony pass
And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if your way should falter
Along the stony pass
It's just a moment
This time will pass
And if the day won't last
And if our way should falter
Along the stony pass
And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if your way should falter
Along the stony pass
It's just a moment
This time will pass

The Meaning Of Love
I've read more than a hundred books
Seeing love mentioned many thousand times
But despite all the places I've looked
It's still no clearer
I'm still no nearer
The meaning of love
Noted down all my observations
Spent an evening watching television
Still I couldn't say with precision
Know it's a feeling and it comes from above
But what's the meaning
The meaning of love
From the notes that I've made so far
Love seems something like wanting a scar
Well I could be wrong
I'm just not sure you see
I've never been in love before
Next I asked several friends of mine
If they could spare a few minutes of their time
Their looks suggested that I've lost my mind
Tell me the answer
My Lord high above
Tell me the meaning
The meaning of love
Seeing love mentioned many thousand times
But despite all the places I've looked
It's still no clearer
I'm still no nearer
The meaning of love
Noted down all my observations
Spent an evening watching television
Still I couldn't say with precision
Know it's a feeling and it comes from above
But what's the meaning
The meaning of love
From the notes that I've made so far
Love seems something like wanting a scar
Well I could be wrong
I'm just not sure you see
I've never been in love before
Next I asked several friends of mine
If they could spare a few minutes of their time
Their looks suggested that I've lost my mind
Tell me the answer
My Lord high above
Tell me the meaning
The meaning of love

Love Is My Shepherd
When love is my shepherd,
He leads me down,
To where troubled water
Sprung up from the ground
I found the answer
Now it seems so clear
When I see your face
I can't help but trace
That love is my shepherd
When you are here
I've lived in the darkness
I've been thru the mill,
I craved the attention
The choked on the thrill.
I found the answer
I saw it in your eyes
So sweet the surprise
Now I can see
That love is my shepherd
Now you're here with me
Today new horizons
Are filled with a joy,
Towards them I travel
With hope to employ
And I've been seduced
By failure and pride
But love is the answer inside
My future looks faithful
My prayers have been heard
And love is the reason
I carry the word
The word is excitement
This feeling is great
I carry that weight
Now I'm set free
Love is my shepherd
Now you're here with me
He leads me down,
To where troubled water
Sprung up from the ground
I found the answer
Now it seems so clear
When I see your face
I can't help but trace
That love is my shepherd
When you are here
I've lived in the darkness
I've been thru the mill,
I craved the attention
The choked on the thrill.
I found the answer
I saw it in your eyes
So sweet the surprise
Now I can see
That love is my shepherd
Now you're here with me
Today new horizons
Are filled with a joy,
Towards them I travel
With hope to employ
And I've been seduced
By failure and pride
But love is the answer inside
My future looks faithful
My prayers have been heard
And love is the reason
I carry the word
The word is excitement
This feeling is great
I carry that weight
Now I'm set free
Love is my shepherd
Now you're here with me

Hollow Life
Is there ever any wonder why we look to the sky?
Search in vain?
Asking why?
All alone?
Where is God?
Looking down?
We don’t know?
We fall in space,
We can't look down,
Death may come
Peace I have found
What to say?
Am I alive,
Am I asleep?
Or have I died

Gravity
Honey, It's been a long time coming
And I can't stop now
Such a long time running
And I can't stop now
Do you hear my heart beating
Can you hear that sound
Cause I can't help thinking
And I don't look down
And then I looked up at the sun
And I could see
Oh the way that gravity turns for you and me
And then I looked up at the sky and saw the sun
And the way that gravity pulls on everyone, on everyone
Baby, It's been a long time waiting
Such a long, long time
And I can't stop smiling
No I can't stop now
And do you hear my heart beating
Ah can you hear that sound
Cause I can't help crying
And I won't look down
And then I looked up at the sun and I could see
Oh the way that gravity turns on you and me
And then I looked up at the sun and saw the sky
And the way that gravity pulls on you and I, on you and I
And I can't stop now
Such a long time running
And I can't stop now
Do you hear my heart beating
Can you hear that sound
Cause I can't help thinking
And I don't look down
And then I looked up at the sun
And I could see
Oh the way that gravity turns for you and me
And then I looked up at the sky and saw the sun
And the way that gravity pulls on everyone, on everyone
Baby, It's been a long time waiting
Such a long, long time
And I can't stop smiling
No I can't stop now
And do you hear my heart beating
Ah can you hear that sound
Cause I can't help crying
And I won't look down
And then I looked up at the sun and I could see
Oh the way that gravity turns on you and me
And then I looked up at the sun and saw the sky
And the way that gravity pulls on you and I, on you and I

The Bends
Where do we go from here?
The words are coming out all weird
Where are you now, when I need you
Alone on an aeroplane
Fall asleep on against the window pane
My blood will thicken
I need to wash myself again to hide all the dirt and pain
'Cause I'd be scared that there's nothing underneath
But who are my real friends?
Have they all got the bends?
Am I really sinking this low?
I wish it was the sixties,
I wish I could be happy
I wish, I wish, I wish that something would happen
I wanna live, breathe
I wanna be part of the human race
I wanna live, breathe
I wanna be part of the human race, race, race, race
My baby's got the bends
We don't have any real friends
The words are coming out all weird
Where are you now, when I need you
Alone on an aeroplane
Fall asleep on against the window pane
My blood will thicken
I need to wash myself again to hide all the dirt and pain
'Cause I'd be scared that there's nothing underneath
But who are my real friends?
Have they all got the bends?
Am I really sinking this low?
I wish it was the sixties,
I wish I could be happy
I wish, I wish, I wish that something would happen
I wanna live, breathe
I wanna be part of the human race
I wanna live, breathe
I wanna be part of the human race, race, race, race
My baby's got the bends
We don't have any real friends
