"Welcome to Ms Jones' Chest!!!

This will be a blog about things left unsaid, the fabulous actions that I always want to do but too shy to or unable to, the feelings I have but never dared to articulate. This blog will be a sad one about the not- happenings, the misdiagnosed and mismatched, and the passing-by-saying-nothings. So if you are of a faint-hearted soul, better go somewhere else now."

For Barney Stinson, and for us. For the loves we keep within. For the loves we wish we are able to say out.

I bet everyone of us has ever felt this. Liking someone so perfect, liking someone, someone who is out of your league. someone so "funny, smart, beautiful you are so scared to love because you are afraid of the pitfalls that may await you". Well, I just got a perfect song for you. This song explains the feeling Barney Stinson has for Robin Scherbatsky in hit sitcom How I Met Your Mother. To cut long story short, he is a player, he sleeps with every woman he lays his eyes on and has countless one night stands literally. She is, well, funny smart beautiful, and never in the world a girl like her in her right mind would hook up with "someone who is always able to separate sex and emotions" like Barney. Well, turns out the playful narcissist has the ability to fall in love and he develops a soft spot for Robin. 


There were, sadly, many countless attempts for him to confess, where the girl just passed them confessions off as jokes, or misunderstood them, because they were too unbelievable indeed. This is a song expressing Barney's hidden emotion, the one he always wishes to express to Robin (in the end he did though, but the love story that followed did not end well). The one a lot of us always wished to express to someone special, but at times, couldnt, because our feelings were weird, unbelievable, unreal, the not-supposed-to-be-felt emotions. This is a song for Barney, and for a lot of us.


No More Wishing
by Hayley Taylor


wake up, I'm trying to show you
I wanna come clean
you mean more than you should mean
but I'm willing to be

the one that you put on a pedestal
the one that you see in your dreams
the one that you hide your true self from
the one you want to please


and I know that it's wrong to want something
so false and so fake
it's not that I want to fix you
I just want to get my way

cause you're the one that I put on a pedestal
the one who keeps coming back to me
the one that I gave my whole heart to
the one who makes me believe

I want a love that's side by side
I want a love that holds me tight
I want a love that feels like a dream
but when I wake up, he's still there with me

so put me up on a pedestal
give me everything I need
but give it to me so completely
that there will be no more wishing
no more wishing
no more wishing
no more wishing
