‘Parks and Recreation’ finale

I always hate the moment after watching a series finale of a favorite drama, especially in a comedy series, even if the final season had been somewhat insipid. Parks and Recreation was no exception. After reaching its peak at season four, the comedy drama had been losing its charm with each consecutive season, and this last season was almost like a self-parodying nightmare, which barely deserved to be watched. Still, now that I have finished the grand-finale, I've reached this moment where certain feelings have come up within me, and I’m totally speechless. What is this feeling/what is there to say? I don’t know. I just hate this moment.

"If I Was Your Girlfriend"

Every single song of Prince circa 1980s never disappoints me. In ‘If I Was Your Girlfriend’, a middle-tempo funk pop song, Prince fantasizes about being a female friend of his ex-girlfriend. Here, with just only the title, we can see through his genius. Unlike ordinary singers who fall into silly suppositions such as “if I were her best friend”, Prince turns his gender into female, and then begins the daydream.

“If I was your girlfriend,” he starts, “Would you remember to tell me all the things you forgot when I was your man?" pondering whether he could give her comfort to open up and tell him everything she wanted to tell. He continues, “If I was your girlfriend, baby can I dress you? I mean, help you pick out your clothes.” He explains he wants to do so as girls often do, when they pay special attention to picking their outfit for a date. Afterwards, he continues to run his imagination a little longer and takes a drastic turn, saying “I’ll undress in front of you. And when I’m naked, what shall I do?” “If I was your girlfriend… would you let me see you naked then?” Finally, he confesses his long-time addiction: “Would you let me give you a bath?” (Prince loves to take a bath with girls). 

But all in all, he can’t escape being a man. Some of you may find the lyrics funny, some may find them disgusting, and some may find them simultaneously aching and romantic. I, myself, am of course in the last category. Otherwise, I would have never become an all-time fan of Prince.

Happy Valentine’s day! This post is very suitable for today. Though just the title is. 

 

I hope my corrections helped a bit. Sorry they are not perfect. Out of curiousity, I gave the song a listen and found it very soothing. I could feel his emotions clearly. To make the meaning of your post more clear, maybe you could have added one more sentence clarifying that Prince wrote this song because he misses his ex-girlfriend so much that he is relieving the pain by writing a song where he imagines he is next to her (long run-on sentence sorry OTL). This was the first Prince song I've ever heard (you are so much more cultured than me haha) and it was indeed a good song for Valentine's Day, so thank you for that :) 

Test period

Yesterday, I finished the last test during test period and began spring vacation. I think I'll get good scores on my tests because I studied for ten hours everyday.
I have to study English from now on in order to be prepared for studying abroad. I have studied English for more than ten years, but I can't still speak and write well. I don't know how to improve my English skills faster.

He should be happy, shouldn't he? They are coming tomorrow, aren't they?

if to is not used in english. I know how hard it is to have to ask somebody to borrow money or something else you really need. I know how bad it feels.

there are obstacles that prevent us from --attaining-- happiness.

there are many differences in men and women's fashion. men have strong preferences for clothing details OR men prefer to seek clothing that have strong details (based off your current sentence, it is unclear what you are trying to say). comfort is also an important factor for men. men do not like buying new clothing. they prefer to keep buying the same style of clothing they like and have become used to. meanwhile, women are the direct opposite. for women, trends are very important and more important than comfort.
