Ah, another day, another random moment of peace. I hope things are good with everyone on the other side of stuff. . . ah, well, I think I'll drop out of band, the music is insane things that I need more time to practicie to. I didn't get inot volleyball, which is totally fine since there is a work-out area anyway. But I was amazed that some great girls didn't make it either. Things here are just consistantly harc core, all around. . . Thank God I'm alright^^;. . .

I still sleep beneath the same stars as you everynight,
Over breakfast, Mum and Lyn did get into the subject of dating and guys and all that smoosh. It was quite intersting, in a simple summary.
Mum, well somewhat, gave her blessing on relationships, she just said to take it all with a pinch of salt and not give until there has been (as I can put it) the "I do," and to simply keep to our studies and God, to keep strong and do well throughout all the chess battles of life.
With that at hand, I did actually feel it safe to go into a bit of ". .well, since you seem to deem dating okay, allow me to inform you about a very special person in my life. . "
However, I didn't, I did not feel ready to go into that, especially in a public area.
How could I explain it all in a puclic area of all places? And days before I move out, knowing that I would want to come home on weekends, now and then. . . Yeah, along with the fact that we were in PF at the time,and if she was feeling determined, someone would possibly get a horrid morning call. . .
In so many ways, I feel like it's time to show all my cards, and yet my cowardice takes hold of my tum and I'm just like a princess trying to make the Queen-Mum see the how easily a commoner could be "King". Yet, I'm just a coward. . .
[Today's pun is "Erich being kingly" ah ha ha ha, ah good pun Chi, good pun^_^]
I think the heart is the strongest muscle in the body. Not only does it defy gravity by pumping blood through the length of your legs (from your thighs to your toes), but it, just as easy, defies your mind while at it.
So, to my amazing heart, I raise my glass and bid you prosperity and health throughout all your days and nights. . . Cheers.
Notice how the media presents women as nothing but a commodity?
Think of the Mount Dew commercial with the two guys and the one that changes his car with those car keys. And then he goes on and changes his friend into a girl.
That proves that:
[1.] Females are but commodities, you can get one just like you can pick out a car.
[2.] That he's always wanted to make-out with his friend, and now will do so freely because to the eyes of the public, he's heterosexual.
And then with just almost all music videos, especially in the rap and hip-hop scene, a female is but a bottle of champagne. As long as a "baller" has the money and "taste," he can get anyone bottle he wants, because he's d*mn sure that they all want him anyway.
I don't know about you, but I would have to be quite drunk to ever even think of flinging myself over a guy in public or even allow one to think that because he's all great and pretty and rich that I actually adore him. Which is all a complex thing, considering how alcohol isn't really my thing. . .
I just despise how women are so close to meaning nothing in the frames of television. It's all just such rubbish and disgusting. I don't know how any of them can stand for it, screw the money they may be making, they're messing up all good views of us, for the rest of us.
When I think about it, it's hard enough to get one to look at me without prejudice, especially with being a female of colour, and now just being a female in today's society is a challenge of it's own, with being an adolescent female.
But it is a battle I can fight with heart and passion.
I miss my flips and butterflies. . .
Eh, just smear some black ink here and there and ramble on. . .
I understand how first impressions don't present the complete picture of the personality of a person, but it's not wrong to at least believe that one seems pretty okay when you first meet them. . . Well, when you first listen to them. . . [man, Manny hasn't called me yet. . . oh Big Brother, where areth thou?]
Words can be quite meaning less, especially when one is trying to prove themselves. I think that it's constructive to express the innerself of one by actions instead of words. Enough with the whole "I'm an outgoing person. . . I'm trying to find myself. . . danah danah danah. . ."
Just show it^_^! If you're outgoing, don't tell me, show me. And if you're unsure of yourself, well it's completely okay, one day you'll get to meet your whole self, and just enjoy all other things that are going on with you. Things will turn in time, Love and hopefully you will appreciate it all. Life is a journey, not a destination.
It's just all in the sense of doing and not saying unless it's necessary. Statements are but statues in streams. For the one who is listening to such things, what can they say? "I'm sorry, I'm not as outgoing as you. . ." Or "Yeah, I'm outgoing too! Let's talk about how outgoing we are!" : :yeeeah: :
Basically, this is my cry of "Stop being the Same!!" I mean, I'm going to have to introduce myself to about 241 other classmates and hey, I just am done with the whole "Allow me to list my personality to you. . ."[To be Continued]
The soul of today will be the soul of tomorrow. Yet the person of today will not be the same tomorrow.
We will always be ourselves, though our personalities may appear through various lights.
"You know you make me smile when you really get into the swing. . ."
" Paul Harvey Writes:
So, back to all those lovely blondes. It reminds me, well thanks to Nanc and Lyn, of Hitler's "Aryan race."
Not that there's a present propaganda dictating what we all show look like, but it's as if all Hollywood believes in are blonde, toothpick, bright-eyed, hopefully tall, females. I can't even allow myself to go in Lindsay Lohan, she just drew the line.
And now it just seems as if the media is subliminally pushing for that blonde look. Now, I'm not implying that I can't stand the sight of blondes, especially with having a blonde(-ish), Caucasian, "counterpart." It's just that the look is too prominent in U.S. media for me to stomach silently.
It's like a poisonous billboard of what a celebrity should aim to appear as for them to get the money and fame they secretly aim for. Though they say how much they love their job and doing what they do, I do believe that they basically aim for the tons of money that goes into their bank accounts, along with the special privileges, which makes them love it even more.
You know, if the government put a limit on the amount of money "the stars" and just powerful people make, and send off large amounts to deprived foreign countries or at least to the poverty areas of this country, poverty wouldn't be so huge in many areas, or at least in one country.
One can notice that most third world countries have Poor currency, meaning that the U.S. dollar will naturally go Quite far. One Nira, which is Nigerian currency, is about one U.S. cent, and probably barely even close to a pence in the U.K. There's just so much more one can do for a needy other, if willing to make a simple sacrifice. Seeing those Huge cookie-cutter houses make me sick, because the majourity of the residents aren't even large in quantity, it's just unnecessary and ridiculously flashy for picture happiness. . .
Feeling in a good mood, feeling like singing. . .
The heart is a muscle. As it heals from being torn, it becomes stronger. . .
It was a warm summer day and I was lounging in the parlour. Soon, I heard the demonic tunes of "Pop goes the weasel" and the cries of children running.
One child caught my eye as he ran towards the truck. He was a sweetly round boy, who cried to the others for them to have the truck wait for him, as his face started to resemble a plump cherry.
However little Timmy, as they called him, would never make it to the truck, and his immaculate white shirt would never taste the sweetness of that chocolate ice cream he ran so quickly for with his stubby little legs, for little Timmy is obese.
[Co-written by Lynda & Elizabeth I.]
Actually, Lyn and I were helping Mum start out an attention getter for her paper on childhood obesity. Naturally, as she and I started speaking out for such lines, the house was filled with laughter and I feel that it came out quite nicely.
