OH HEY.

LOOK! LOOK OVER THERE!

No, don't look. There isn't anything. (Or is there?) (No, there isn't.)

So, I haven't posted in months, and I'm here to tell you why: I didn't have an urge to. I only blog when I really really want to, and I didn't feel like it. Sue me.

Okay, that's it, really. I'm in England right now, chilling out and being sick - side note: antibiotics taste like crappp - and I'm heading to Italy tomorrow for 2 days...because I can.

Dear god, I'm a bitch when I'm sick.

Okay, then. Keep on keepin' on,

Finals = Punch Children

I haven't been around much, and I wont be until, like, the 27th of June - 'cept for one post on...Friday? Maybe?

Sorry, I've got finals. Deal. <3

Also, you guys know you can comment, right? I get tons of messages in my inbox, and that's awesome, but commenting is easier. I think. Whatever, I like the messages! AHHGGIDLN-

Highways

Why is there always another side? Why does there always have to be a counter-argument?

Take highways, for example. Are they good or bad?

They allow people to get from point A to point B clearly, they're generally flat and easy to drive on, plus they're safer than dirt roads. Those are all positives - but that isn't the entire story. Creating, maintaining, changing highways are all environmentally damaging. There is always a ton of traffic. Garbage lines the sides.

So here are my non-rhetorical questions for the day: Are highways bad or good? Are there anythings in this world that can be classified as either bad or good, evil or just?

New Song Thing

No more...
Feelings.
No more...
Hopes and dreams
No more...
Secrets
No more...
Everything you need.

Cause I'm stepping back
I've just gotta let it go
It's isn't real anymore
there's no need to make it show

I don't need anymore
of the pain you put me through,
but I'm sure that you know
it's not really about you

This whole
situation
gets me
to keep on pacin'
and I
naturally
can't keep up
happily

No more Feelings.
No more Hopes and dreams
No more Secrets
No more Everything you need.
No more Hardships
No more Wasted time
All I know is
I'm gonna lose my mind.

The Spelling Of My Name

A short little post about my name. Enjoy!

------------------------------------------

A few years ago, I was going through a point in my life where I thought everything I did was the stupidest action in the history of forever. I would constantly say to myself "Why on earth did you just say that?" and "Did you really just open that door that loud?" and "Wow. It took you a week to finish that book? You are such an idiot." And that's how life was for me.

During this time, I read something about how what you are called defining you. It was a religious thing, and it seemed kinda stupid at the time I first saw it, but after a few weeks I found myself going back to it, slowly giving it merit. I didn't want to change my name, no, I liked the name fine, it worked well for me, but I felt the need to personalize it just a bit more, so I dropped the "e" off the end.

I liked the change a lot, and still do, and I'll tell you all now: your name is a HUGE part of who you are, and if you don't think it fits you, CHANGE IT! People do it everyday. I did.

Alright guys, happy Thursday.

Starkid's 30 Day Challenge in One Blog Post

I can't ever commit to anything, so I'm going to do a 30 challenge in a blog post to ensure it gets done.

...The logic works in my head...

AND ALSO: This is PRE-STARSHIP. But there will be Starship answers. ALSO, WARNINGS FOR SPOILERS***********

ALRIGHT. STARKID'S 30 DAY CHALLENGE. HERE WE GOOO.

1) Fave Starkid Production: I honestly can't choose. My default is AVPS, but I do love them all with the depths of my heart.

2) Fave Male Starkid: Brian Holden literally makes my knee's weak. (A.J., Joe Walker, Darren, and Joey Richter are fighting it out for second.)

3) Fave Female Starkid: Devin Lytle. She plays Cho Chang and Mrs. Cooter and is hilarious.

4) Fave AVPM/AVPS character: Remus Lupin. He has all the best lines.

5) Fave Starkid Song: Oh god. Uhm. I really like Status Quo, and Life, and loveee Not Alone and No Way. So, one of those.

6) Fave picture of Darren:














7) Fave Joe (or Joey): Joey Richter. With his jaw. Of Awesome.

8) Fave line in MAMD: "No, she hates me." "Oh, that's certainly possible."

9) Fave line in AVPM: "My name is Draco Malfoy. I am a racist. I despise gingers, and mudbloods. I hate Gryffindor house and my parents work for the man who killed your parents - do you want to be my friend?"

10) Fave line in LWL: I just let the kiss stand on it's own.

11) Fave episode of the Potion Master's Corner: Why didn't you accept my friend request??

12) If you could request any movie for Starkid to do a musical on, what would it be and why?: This is a really awesome question. I would love if they did a Threequel for Potter, but other than that I really, really enjoy and want more of their original idea's. (Though.... Serenity and Firefly isn't a terrible idea.)

13) Fave Lang brother: YOU WANT ME TO CHOOSE? WHAT KINDA PERSON ARE YOU?

14) Which Starkid would you marry: Brian Holden in an instant. Or Joey. Or A.J. Or Darren. Or Joe Walker. In that order.

15) AVPM or AVPS: Uhhhh, uhmm, err....AVPS.

16) Joe Walker as Voldemort or Umbridge: Commander Up. Even as an emotionally-stunted, half-robotic, no-balls, depressed Starship commander, that guy is freaking smokin'.

17) If there is a third part to AVPM, what do you think should happen: Also a fantastic question. Maybe dealing with them when they're older, or maybe Voldemort had a son.

18) Why do you love Starkid: Because they believe in themselves, and they believe in us, and they make me want to be the best person I can - even if it's only to make them proud. And, Joe Walker is nice to look at. But mostly the first one.

19) Do you call them Starkid or Dikrats: Starkid. Cause.

20) Dumbledore or Rumbleroar: 10 points to Dumbledore.

21) What do you like of LWL: I loved it, but I love the other stuff more. Honestly, I think it's the lowest on the list for me, but the par was so crazy high, it was still freaking awesome.

22) Brian Holden. Care to comment: Please sleep with me. This is an open invitation.

23) Funniest AVPM character: Either Ron or Draco.

24) Fave Snape line: "This is ABBSURRDD."

25) A Starkid GIF: Here are some cool ones. http://joemosesfans.tumblr.com/post/5253340663

26) Did you expect Dobby to be Draco's father: Not until a few seconds before. Makes a lot of sense.

27) Do you apply Starkid references in your life: To many to name here, but I do use "absurd" and "calculus was tough" a lot.

28) What are your thoughts on redvines: What the hell can't they do?

29) Fave photo of Joey:











Finally, 30) If you could ask any Starkid a question, who would it be and what would you ask: Well, I was gonna say Darren Criss but I've already had the chance to speak to him (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWUxjjQvWZ4 -- I watch this every time I get upset, btw), so instead I would just like to ask Brian Holden if he ever expected the community to get this large and if he as any regrets.

Alright. That is the 30 Day Challenge. Imma go tweet at Starkids now.

Have an awesome night,
Keep on keepin' on,

A Song to Jam To

Just a very, very fast five sentence post. I just wanted to update you guys on awesome songs, so I figured should let you know about this song called "Turn Me On" by Lelia Broussard. I've been listening to it for the past six hours (with the exception of Glee). You should listen to it. And the artist is in this competition to be on the cover of Rolling Stone, so you should vote for her (go down two posts and rate her five stars on the "This Chick is Awesome. Vote For Her." post).

DO IT

Facts About Molli (3)

Let's get it onnnn.

Top three websites used?

Youtube, Facebook, Fanfiction.net. Twitter, the Ning and Hulu are after that.

Pets?

Two lovely little horrors named Toby and C.J.. Siamese cats, half sisters.

Klaine or St. Hummel?

Wha-what kind of question is that? Who the hell is shipping for St. Hummel? KLAINE, IDIOTS.

Do you want to be a Starship Ranger?

No, I just want Joe Walker.

Speaking of Glee, did you buy the Warblers album?

I stand by the fact that it's not a Warblers album, it's a Darren Criss album. Don't deny it! It's true! And yes, I got it off iTunes, because Darren makes my life.

Lastly, what are you listening to RIGHT NOW?

"Hips Don't Lie" by Shakria is the last noise I heard. It's the jam.

Okay, guys, as always, you can leave questions in comments.

I'm Done, I'm Done

I stood there, awestruck. The shattered glass had hit two feet to my right, but hadn't touched me. Sam was staring down at his hands, looking like he didn't know where they had came from. I took a step back, and put my hand against the wall of our apartment.

"Miriam-" Sam started.

"No." I turned and walked into the bedroom. I grabbed my duffel bag from the closet and started dumping the first things my hands snatched up into it. I heard footsteps coming closer, but didn't look up from what I was doing. A slow groan came from the door as it was opened.

"Miriam, please, I didn't mean-" Sam moved closer to me.

"Get the hell away from me. Get the - my god, where is my wallet?" I started to zip up my bag. After some doing, I threw it over my shoulder, and headed out of the bedroom, toward the front door. A hand caught my shoulder.

"Miriam, baby, please. I'm so sorry, I don't know what came over me. It's was just a little fight. Come on, baby, put the bag down. You know you'll regret leaving tomorrow morning." Sam motioned to get my bag, but I jerked away from him, my blood starting to boil. '

"I'll regret leaving? Sam, no. I'll regret staying with you this long. I'll regret letting you stand that close to my vase, but no, baby, I won't regret leaving. You've given me nothing but complete and total shit for the last six months and I'm done. I'm done dealing with your mood swings and fits of uncontrollable anger. I'm done with your excuses and I'm done with your partying. Have fun being lonely, douchebag." I ran out the door, mumbling I'm done, I'm done down the stairs, hearing someone call my name a floor above me, wondering why I hadn't done this ages ago.

Haitus

Well. That happened.

I really don't know how to explain myself, but there were some problems with my account. But I'm back, a month later, and very, very sleepy.

Quickly, though, I'm going to post a movie clip. People seem to love them, and they are very, very infrequent, but I thought it would be a way to start making it up to you.

Alright, I gotta go write the movie clip.

Alright, kids. I'll see you in a few hours.

And So We Begin and Posters

So, we're starting off with, not only a late post, but a SHORT one! Woo-frikin-hoo. But, because it is not yet midnight, I still qualify for VEDA. So yeah.

I've been on edge all day. I have had a timer set on my phone for 23 hours just waiting. All during classes today, you would hear me mutter things like "8 hours and 23 minutes, oh my god" and "come on, only five minutes until we break into the next hour". What was this for, you ask? I'll tell you.

So, ten days ago, Mike Lombardo, one of my favorite people, posted a video that, in part, said that there was an ebay auction for Driftless Pony Club and the Mike Lombardo Trio poster (designed by Karen Kavett) that was signed by all the members of both bands. This was amazing luck. I had seen DPC and the MiLo trio a week before in CT at The Space but because of the sheer length of the concert, I had to leave during DPC's set and never got there autographs. So when I saw this all I think is "this is a message from god." So I promised myself I would try to get it.

Now it's today, the last day of the auction. I've been waiting all day, and since it was the 3 hour mark before the auction closed, I literally didn't do anything but check ebay. I had a high max bid and currently was the top bidder but was still nervous. It came down to the last 15 minutes, and I almost had some sort of episode. I look back on it now and...well, no. I was going to say that it was ridiculous, but to tell you the truth, i think it was completely normal fangirl behavior.

So, two minutes, still the highest bidder. One minute, still going strong. Thirty seconds. Fifteen. Ten. Five. One-wait. That wasn't the bid I put it! I bit 51 dollars, why does that say 66?

Well, it turns out that someone in the last second had bid 65 dollars in an attempt to undermine me, but the automatic bidder got it in the last second, bidding one dollar higher and making me the winner. I could have cried.

So here I am, riding the waves of victory and pure joy, post-talking to Mike Lombardo on Twitter (holyshit), being amazed at the awesome. It's a feeling I think a lot of people take for granted. When I got back from that concert those weeks ago, I told my friend that it was the best night of my life. She rolled her eyes and acted as if that was *such* a teenager thing to say, and I guess it is, but that night really was the best night of my life. But, more on that tomorrow.

Tomorrow's preview: The Space concert and why I was absent from Nerdfighteria for so long.

Hey, this blog wasn't short at all. I don't know why I wrote that.

People mentioned in this blog post:





Music I was listening too as I wrote this (this guy will also be mentioned tomorrow) : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irnzxOXw5QY&feature=relmfu

Pre-BEDA

So. April starts tomorrow. If you didn't know.

That means BEDA. Blog EveryDay in April. Which I will try to do.

Maybe.

A bit.

It will probably be a bit random in terms of blog types. I have a lot of cool ideas but not a lot of time so things will be put off.

Also, I'm sorry to say, but for BEDA the "What's Coming, Molli?" box will be suspended, as you know new things will be here everyday and each will be a surprise.

Also also, there are a ton of really really cool blogs to also read this month, two of my all-time favorite blogs being:


and

http://hayleyghoover.blogspot.com/ ...although I don't know if she's doing BEDA. She has in the past though.

So, I'll see you tomorrow, I guess.

Introduction to the BunnyMonster

Dear wonderful-internet-people:

STOP READING THIS. STOP. RIGHT NOW.

I'M SERIOUS.

To the readers with a death wish, I will explain. I have a nemesis, you see. It's a horrible creature, with large, menacing eyes, and a tendency to eat everything in it's path. I'll link to you a picture. Click at your own risk.


Terrifying, correct?

And his name...is the BunnyMonster.

The BunnyMonster is constantly after me...and anyone who dares to speak his name is at risk...

...or Captain Hook.

I'm on the run right now, I will post more when I can. Know this, dear readers:

He is everywhere.

Poetry You Say?

I wrote this in roughly 2 minutes to meet my deadline. So it's pretty bad. Ehh, whateverrrrrrr.
Also, it maybe, eventually be a song. But, it's pretty bad. Maybe i'll work on it in the future.

Some Sorta Sign

So yeah, I see
the way you look at me.
It's kinda frightening
like fireworks, like lightening.

It may sound a little off,
but I've been know to be soft.
Looks like someones there for me,
I'm sure you will agree.

And I'm scared to go through - this time -
and I know this wont be the last line,
but I fear though this very rhyme,
that this is not some sorta sign.
Some sorta sign.
____________

Alright. So. That's that.

Maybe I'll have a story clip posted. Maybe. But they take a long time to write, so you have to be nice. (If you don't know what a story clip is, you can look at the blog post called "The End". That's an example of one.)

Alright, beautiful. Keep on keepin' on.

REPROGRAMMING.

OKAY. HELLO.

I haven't been on here on like 2 weeks, and I'm sorry. So things are about to change.

Im going to get rid of The Song Of The Day. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but it was time consuming and kinda pointless. I will post song recommendations every once and a while - my music tastes will not be forgotten!

I do want to post more, though. Maybe some poetry, song lyrics that I'm working on, story clips and so on. So that's going to happen.

The "What's Coming, Molli?" box (scroll to the bottom of the home page) is going to be a little different. Instead of giving exact dates of 5 or 6 upcoming posts, I'm going to put up the TWO POSTS that will ALWAYS be posted that week. It's won't be giving what day, but rest assured, if you check it every week, new stuff will posted. THIS DOESN'T MEAN I WILL ONLY POST TWO THINGS A WEEK. Who knows, I may want to spice things up.

Yum.

Alright kids,
Until next time, keep on keepin' on.

Song Of The Day 3/9 and 3/10

Yes, yes, I missed yesterday - very sorry, I was a little sick. Well, here we are, and I present you with TWO songs for your reading and listening pleasure.

Those songs?

Here It Goes Again - Ok Go and Earn Enough For Us - XTC

Both these songs makes me dance in parking lots. Lyrics? Lyrics, lyrics, lyrics.

Here It Goes Again - Ok Go

It could be ten, but then again, I can't remember half an hour since a quarter to four.
Throw on your clothes, the second side of Surfer Rosa, and you leave me with my jaw on the floor.
Just when you think you're in control,
just when you think you've got a hold,
just when you get on a roll,
here it goes, here it goes, here it goes again.
Oh, here it goes again.
I should have known,
should have known,
should have known again,
but here it goes again.
Oh, here it goes again.
It starts out easy, something simple, something sleazy, something inching past the edge of the reserve.
Now through lines of the cheap venetian blinds your car is pulling off of the curb.
Just when you think you're in control,
just when you think you've got a hold,
just when you get on a roll,
here it goes, here it goes, here it goes again.
Oh, here it goes again.
I should have known, should have known,
should have known again,
but here it goes again.
Oh, here it goes again.
I guess there's got to be a break in the monotony, but Jesus, when it rains how it pours.
Throw on your clothes, the second side of Surfer Rosa, and you leave me, yeah, you leave me.
Oh, here it goes, here it goes, here it goes again.
Oh here it goes again.
I should have known, should have known,
should have known again,
but here it goes again.
Oh, here it goes again.

Earn Enough For Us - XTC


I've been praying all the week through
At home, at work and on the bus
I've been praying I can keep you
And to earn enough for us

I can take humiliation
And hurtful comments from the boss
I'm just praying by the weekend
I can earn enough for us

Found a house that won't repair itself
With it's windows cracking
And a roof held together with holes
Just because we're at the bottom of the ladder
We shouldn't be sadder
Than others like us
Who have goals for the betterment of life
Glad that you want to be my wife, but honest
I've been praying all the week through
At home at work and on the bus
I've been praying I can keep you
And to earn enough for us

So you're saying that we're going to be three
Now, a father's what I'll be
Don't get me wrong, I'm so proud
But the belt's already tight
I'll get another job at night, but honest

I can take humiliation
And hurtful comments from the boss
I'm just praying by the weekend
I can earn enough for us
Just because we're at the bottom of the ladder
We shouldn't be sadder
Than others like us
Who have goals for the betterment of life
Glad that you want to be my wife, but honest

I can take humiliation
And hurtful comments from the Boss
I'm just praying by the weekend
I can earn enough for us
I can earn enough for us


There you are - two amazing songs assigned to two blah days.
Keep on keepin' on,
-Molli <3

Song Of The Day 3/8

Hey y'all.

LOOK!
A SONG!
OF THE DAY!

...overkill, right? Too bad.

Alright, the new song of the day issss.....

Lazy Sunday by Nickasaur!

The electronic gets a lot of hate, but I do like the genre and this, while certainly electronic sounding, will appeal to the people still on the fence.

Lyrics? Okay, okay, sheesh.

Lazy Sunday - Nickasaur!

It's a lazy Sunday, and i'm stayin' inside;
to watch Good Morning LA.

As I notice the birds are tweetin',
with the sun creepin ,
out of my window.

I'll cook you some breakfast, sunny-side up,
but you just lay there and don't you get up.
Gonna hit the town, down around two,
so when the one hits the 30 thats your cue.
To get movin', we gotta get movin',
or were you sayin', you wanted to stay at the Day-Inn?
and leave the rest up to me and you.

It's a lazy Sunday, and were going outside;
let's not waste this beautiful day.

I see you layin',
you really wanna be playin',
to show a little displayin' of love.

We'll toss and turn, as you listen and learn,
as we lay on the bed.
Don't fall asleep, dont count your sheep,
even if it may be 10 to 2.

But just remember it's me and you time;
your more than a friend, like my partner in crime.
Just go to bed, thats alright;
I'll stay up and make sure the bed bugs wont bite.

It's a lazy sunday, and were going to bed;
say goodnight to the moon.

You can use your imagination,
for tonight's vacation,
'till monday afternoon.


Until tomorrow,
Keep on keepin' on,
-Molli <3

Some Old Poems

Stuff I thought I would post.

Hat

Ummm. So, hi. Yes.
So, umm, I may have seen you around the corner,
just for a moment, you know.
And, uhh, you may have been wearing that hat...
you know, the hat! We got it at the fair.
Last year.
And, well, uhh.
It looks different from far away, you know?
makes me think you should have thrown it out.
Maybe.
and it makes me wonder who's seen you in that hat.
and it looks black from where i'm standing -
I always thought it was green. Deep green.
And i think maybe I was meant to see you,
and maybe i was mean to see your new, black hat.
because maybe you never wanted your old, green hat.
I liked that hat.
And maybe I shouldn't have been walking to the corner tonight.
And maybe you should have thrown out my hat.
You know, Maybe.

__________________________

Rain

Do you remember when it rained?
Of course you do, it was September.
We ran outside in shorts and screamed at the wind.
Do you remember?
How that raindrop would hit your temple and roll down
to your chin and fall off?
Do you?

Do you remember when it rained?
Of course you do, it was April.
You ran from me, outside,
to make me think that the tears in your eyes were raindrops.
Do you remember?
That I had to pin your arms so you wouldn't keep running
until you broke down and sobbed into my shoulder?
Do you?

Do you remember when it rained?
Of course you do, it was July.
We laid in the liquid grass as we watched the warm water hit our bones.
Do you remember?
I took off my sweatshirt and put the wet cloth over us,
as if it would do any good?
Do you?

Do you remember when it rained?
Of course you do, it was September.
You dragged me outside at midnight and stood in the middle of the road.
Do you remember?
You almost fell asleep standing up, because you refused to go back inside,
because watching the rain fall and the sparks fly were all you needed?
Do you?

CrazyBeautiful

You're just so crazybeautiful.
You'd never believe it,
thats just the person you are.
But it's okay, because
I know that you're just so
crazybeautiful.
I see it when you're laughing,
and I notice it when you're
sleeping and I love the fact that
you're just so crazybeautiful.

And She. And He.

And she has always been sad.
And she has always been alone.
And he'd always tried to be there.
And she wont let him.
And she knows its not going to work.
And she knows no matter what it seems, hes not really there.
And he wants to make her believe.
And she knows she's not worth it.
And she wants to be.
And she wants to be.
And he wants to be.
And he wants to be.
And she wishes he was really there.
And he wishes she could see him.
And she wants him.
And he loves her.

Because You're A Jerk. And I Hate You.

ecause you're a jerk.
And I hate you.

You obviously don't care,
Care how i'm feeling.
You obviously don't give it a second thought,
a second thought when you say something rude.
Because you're a jerk.
And I hate you.

You obviously think you,
come first in any situation.
You obviously never understand,
understand why I keep leaving.
Because you're a jerk,
And I hate you.

And you obviously want,
want me to be happy with the little things you do.
And you obviously love,
love me and want me to stay.
Because you're a jerk.
And I can't hate you.

Alright, guys. Here they are. Some good, some bad. All me.

Keep on keepin' on

Song Of The Day 3/7

Alright, the musician for today's SOTD may sound a little familiar. You aren't going crazy (well...), Mike's been on here before. This is just a testament to how great he is.

The song of the day is Caroline by Mike Lombardo.

This was originally written for The Masters if Song Fu competition put on by QuickStop entertainment (You'll see a reference to QuickStop in the song). It didn't win, which is a shame, because this is a really cute song. It's cheesy, yes, but it's a sweet song that's fun to sing to.

Lyrics time!

Caroline - Mike Lombardo

I knew since I came awake
that today was a special day
yeah, it was
I left the office in a blur
she knows I'm coming home to her
yeah she does

and it's a shame that nobody knows this thing that we got
but we'll be the same way
no matter if they know it or not
so it doesn't really matter cause
Me and Caroline
we're gonna take the car down the road
we'll go wherever she wants to go
and we'll make it home in time
to turn the radio way down low
and baby, we'll pour the wine
just me and caroline

i took a turn on 23rd
and I was singing with the birds
in the trees
I made a quick stop at the store
to bring some flowers home before
we roll free


and it's a shame that nobody knows this thing that we got
but we'll be the same way
no matter if they know it or not
so it doesn't really matter cause
Me and Caroline
we're gonna take the car down the road
we'll go wherever she wants to go
and we'll make it home in time
to turn the radio way down low
and baby, we'll pour the wine
just me and caroline

Ah, Mike, how you melt my heart.

Keep rockin' it.

Movie Speeches

I present to you today two of my favorite movie speeches. I loveee these movies and the themes are sorta the same - the lack of ability to communicate.

So here they are - both impressive movies, both interesting topics, and both horribly fun to recite.

Robin Williams, Good Will Hunting - If I asked you about art you'd probably give me the skinny on every art book ever written. Michelangelo. You know a lot about him. Life's work. Political aspirations. Him and the pope. Sexual orientations. The whole works, right? But I bet you can't tell me what it smells like in the Sistine Chapel."

Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939) - "Great principles don't get lost once they come to light. They're right here. You just have to see them again...You think I'm licked. You all think I'm licked. Well, I'm not licked. And I'm going to stay right here and fight for this lost cause, even if this room gets filled with lies like these; and the Taylors and all their armies come marching into this place. Somebody will listen to me."

Keep on keepin' on

Song Of The Day 3/6

NEWSONGOFTHEDAYOKAY?

Okay. The song of the day is...

wait for it...

Panama - Van Halen

Yes, I know, Van Halen gets some flack because of the unorthodox-ness associated with it (have you seen the hair?), but I really love this song. It makes me wanna beat drumsticks on the dashboard of my dad's car.

Lyrics? Whatever you say.

Panama - Van Halen

Uh!
Oh yeah!
Ah-huh!

Jump back, what's that sound?
Here she comes, full blast'n top down
Hot shoe, burnin' down the avenue
Model citizen, zero discipline

Don't you know she's coming home with me
You'll lose her in that turn
I'll get her!

Panama, Panama
Panama, Panama

Ain't nothin' like it, it's a shining machine
Got the feel for the wheel, keep the movin' parts clean
Hot shoe, burnin' down the avenue
Got an on-ramp comin' through my bedroom

Don't you know she's coming home with me
You'll lose her in that turn
I'll get her
oh!


Panama, Panama
ow!
Panama, Panama
oh-oh-oh-oh
Woo!

[Guitar Solo]

Yeah, we're runnin' a little bit hot tonight
I can barely see the road from the heat comin' off
know what I'm sayin'
uhh, I reach down between my legs n' ease the seat back

She's runnin', I'm flyin'
Right behind in the rearview mirror now
Got the fearin', power steerin'
Pistons poppin', ain't no stoppin' now

Panama, Panama
Panama, Panama
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Panama, Panama
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Panama!


Just a totally awesome song.
Keep it rockin'

Song Of The Day 3/5

New song coming at 'cha. Get ready.

The song is "Maybe" by The Perfect Measure. It's one of my favorite love songs, with a great message and doesn't go overboard.

Lyrics? Okay.

Maybe - The Perfect Measure

Maybe I'll find you here,
Just maybe,
I'll find you.

Maybe we could fly away,
To our special place,
We wouldn't give it away,
No we wont give it away,

I swear that I wouldn't breathe,
But I promise that I'll believe,

Cause there's a place for you here,
There's a place for you, my dear,
I should have said this from the start,
That there's a place for you here,
In my heart.

Maybe the sight of your face,
Would blow all my tears away,
Just maybe,
It'll blow them away,
But maybe we'll sit and just talk,
About life, about love,
We can fly like a dove if you want,
Away from here,

I swear that I wouldn't breathe,
But I promise that I'll believe,

Cause there's a place for you here,
There's a place for you, my dear,
I should have said this from the start,
But there's a place for you here,
In my heart.

Maybe,
Just maybe,
Just maybe for now,
Just maybe for now.

Take a step back,
Try your best to free,
Maybe it's not ment to be,
And just promise you wont forget me.

Cause there's a place for you here,
There's a place for you, my dear,
I should have said this from the start,
But there's a place for you here,
In my heart (x3)


Hope you check it out - it's worth it.

Keep rockin' it.

Climate Change and You're An Idiot.

As a principle, I make it a standard to accept anyone. I don't care how you look, what religion or ethnicity you are, where you live, your love of Justin Beiber, or your lack of understanding Steven Colbert. But I won't accept people who don't believe in climate change.

Granted, I judge people on their views all the time - but that doesn't mean I won't accept them - i'm just rude. But not believing in climate change? Are you kidding me?

I take Environmental Science at school. I take it with a bunch of kids who didn't want to take Chemistry (which I understand, I wish I hadn't taken it), or people who need another credit to graduate and heard it was easy. Because of this, I have to deal with being the only kid in the class who cares about the content. I also have to deal with the annoying kid who doesn't believe any of it is real who sits three places over from me.

Let me just explain something quickly: CLIMATE CHANGE IS REAL. I DON'T CARE WHAT YOUR FREAKING OPINIONS ARE - IT'S SCIENCE. NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU WANT TO SAY THAT IT'S A "NATURAL PROCESS" OR THAT "THE DATA WAS FORGED", IT WON'T CHANGE THAT GLOBAL WARMING IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING.

So, kid in class - you are stupid. I don't care how much you scream about drilling Alaska and shooting stuff into space, you will always just be stupid, and I'm going to judge and not accept you AS I PLEASE.

Alright, just needed to get that out.

Song Of The Day 3/4

Ready for the song of the day?

Good. I'm glad.

The song of the day is "Locked Out" by Mike Lombardo. It is really profound, with amazing imagery, and the piano is excellent.

Lyrics? Lyrics.

Locked Out - Mike Lombardo

I'm sitting out here on my own
with the moth around the front porch lamp that shines behind me
it's funny how you'd never know
that your home is really not your home
if you forget the key

you said you'd be home soon
but I don't want to wait that long
you said you'd be home soon
but I'm locked out.

I'm sitting out here on my own
does everybody else feel just as empty?
Are you happy when there's nothing left to own?
Or is there something deep inside that's more than I can see?

and I've been standing here for years and years
just drowning all my fears with self control
and now I think there might be something more
than waiting for the years to take their toll

I'm sitting out here on my own
I see your headlights on the pavement as you pull into the driveway
it's funny how you'd never know
that your life is really not your life
if you forget the key
and I'm locked out.


I think this song shows a real insight on abandonment, which is something you don't usually get nowadays.

I'm glad it exists.

The End

Two girls stood at the edge of a large lake. It was dusk and slightly cold, so they stood with their arms around each other, bare toes barely touching the waters edge.

The first girl stood tall, long blond hair hanging off her shoulders, eyes blazing past the lake to the trees on the other side. The second girl was slightly shorter with cropped black hair, her face sunk into the crook of the blonds neck, not daring to look at her surroundings.

They stood, silently, for a long time. When the second girl finally spoke what she had been thinking, she did it in a small, weak voice, just loud enough for her companion to hear.

"When it's all over," she said quietly, "when we make it through, will we be here, or there?" The first girl raised her eyebrows.

"Huh. I never even thought about that." The blond's eyes flashed quickly to the tree's, and then back down at the water's edge.

"Really?" Came the first voice. "That's all I can think about." She shifted a little, putting the majority of her weight on her left foot, and then her right. The blond stood quiet for another moment. She kissed the top of her sister's head.

"Well, the good news in that wherever we end up is where we're supposed to go, so there's no need to worry about it."

FIN.
